Douluo: Twin Origins, Suppressing the World

Chapter 193 Please, Qiu'er~
After searching for almost a day in Sunset Forest, Ling Shuang and the others still couldn't find a soul beast that matched Jiang Nannan's current martial soul.

Although there are slightly more space-attribute soul beasts than Ling Shuang's destruction-attribute soul beasts, they are still an extremely rare attribute type.

It's not that they didn't see any space-attribute soul beasts. In fact, they did find a few space-attribute soul beasts, but they didn't quite fit the age requirement.

Jiang Nannan is now at level 50, and with the enhancement from the Immortal Herb Acacia Heartbreak Red, her physical and mental abilities have been improved to a certain extent.

With the assistance of Ling Shuang's life force, the maximum age of the fifth soul ring can reach 40,000 years.

However, the oldest of the space-attribute soul beasts they encountered before was only a little over ten thousand years old.

Although it meets the standard of ten thousand years, it still feels a bit unworthy to actually absorb it like that.

Therefore, the group arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest, where there were far more types and numbers of soul beasts than in the Sunset Forest, making it much more likely to find a soul beast that met Jiang Nannan's requirements.

Since none of them had anything urgent to do, they decided to make another trip.

When it comes to choosing spirit rings, it's best not to settle for less if possible.

Stepping into the Star Dou Great Forest, Wang Qiu'er narrowed her eyes slightly and relaxed her body considerably.

This largest soul beast forest, which is full of dangers for many human soul masters, is like home to Wang Qiu'er.

"I know where to find the soul beast that Sister Nan Nan needs," Wang Qiu'er said proudly, raising her little face.

Ling Shuang did not doubt her words.

It's perfectly normal for the Emperor Beast, who has lived in the Star Dou Great Forest for so long, to know the gathering place of the Soul Beasts.

but……

"Aren't you feeling unwell?" Ling Shuang asked, looking at Wang Qiu'er, who showed no signs of discomfort.

In his view, as an imperial auspicious beast that had lived in the Star Dou Great Forest for so long, Wang Qiu'er should feel somewhat awkward about them coming here to hunt for spirit rings.

But Wang Qiu'er didn't seem awkward at all; she even brought up the topic herself, which puzzled Ling Shuang.

"What's bothering you?" Wang Qiu'er didn't know why Ling Shuang would have this thought.

"The ones I'm taking you to hunt aren't my people or the people of those ferocious beast uncles and aunts."

Wang Qiu'er really didn't understand why Ling Shuang thought she would be upset.

Hearing Wang Qiu'er's words, Ling Shuang suddenly realized.

He also made the common mistake of human soul masters, subconsciously categorizing all soul beasts as soul beasts, when in reality there are different races among soul beasts, and the differences between the various races are enormous.

Aside from the basic characteristics of soul beasts, the differences are almost as significant as those between humans and soul beasts.

For Wang Qiu'er, all she really cared about were the ferocious beast elders who took care of her and their race. As for other soul beasts, in Wang Qiu'er's eyes, they were probably not much different from those in the eyes of humans.

Aside from the human soul masters who perish here every year, the food source for the soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest is actually mostly other races of soul beasts.

Before she took human form, Wang Qiu'er was one of the top hunters in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Therefore, she naturally didn't feel uncomfortable when she took Ling Shuang and the others to hunt soul beasts that had nothing to do with her.

"I was stupid." Ling Shuang slapped his forehead, never expecting that he would fall into such a simple misconception and fail to understand even the simplest of principles.

"Qiu'er, then I'll leave it to you." Ling Shuang decisively chose to seek Wang Qiu'er's help.

Instead of wandering aimlessly through the vast Starry Sky Forest using only their mental energy, it would be better to seek Wang Qiu'er's help directly.

However, Wang Qiu'er's proud and aloof nature resurfaced. Although she had already decided to help Ling Shuang and the others find suitable soul beasts when she uttered those words, the Little Emperor Beast's personality was rather awkward.

If Ling Shuang tells me to do something and I do it, wouldn't that make this auspicious beast lose face?
Wang Qiu'er crossed her arms over her already well-developed breasts, her chin held high with pride:
"Why should I help you?"

Ling Shuang immediately saw through the arrogant nature of the little imperial beast.

In fact, he could have used the favor he owed Xiancao to persuade her, but Ling Shuang did not choose to do so.

A wicked smile appeared on his lips, which he then suppressed.

Under Wang Qiu'er's questioning gaze, Ling Shuang slowly approached her.

When the two were only inches apart, Ling Shuang slowly raised her palm.

Perhaps still haunted by the memory of being struck on the head by the Twin Staffs of Annihilation, Wang Qiu'er instinctively closed her eyes when she saw Ling Shuang's action.

The pain she had imagined didn't come. Instead, Wang Qiu'er felt a gentle touch on her head.

She opened her eyes in confusion.

Ling Shuang's handsome and noble face was close at hand as he gently stroked Wang Qiu'er's little head.

Wang Qiu'er is considered quite tall for a girl, but she is still a head shorter than Ling Shuang, so she has to look up slightly to see Ling Shuang's face.

Ling Shuang's strangely colored eyes held a hint of doting affection.

He parted his thin lips slightly, and his gentle voice reached Wang Qiu'er's ears:

"Sister Qiu'er, I'm begging you~"

Wang Qiu'er's pretty face turned bright red at a visible speed.

Ling Shuang's extremely gentle "Sister Qiu'er" was like a boulder thrown into Wang Qiu'er's heart, stirring up huge waves and making it impossible for her to remain calm.

Wang Qiu'er felt as if some strange switch had been flipped, her heart filled with shyness and inexplicable joy.

That's so unfair! That's so unfair!
How could he use that tone to call her "Sister Qiu'er"?!
"I...I know, I'll take you there..." Wang Qiu'er's stammering voice weakly rang out.

She turned her face away, not daring to look directly at that noble face so close to hers.

Ling Shuang took a step back, a triumphant smile curving her lips.

Sure enough, this is the way to deal with a tsundere.

"In that case, thank you very much, Qiu'er~"

Another gentle "Sister Qiu'er" was heard, and Wang Qiu'er trembled slightly.

Even though I felt incredibly strange about the tone and the way I was addressed, but...

Why did she have a desire to hear Ling Shuang say "Sister Qiu'er" in that tone more often?
The little imperial auspicious beast felt an unprecedented sense of bewilderment about its strange psychology.

Jiang Nannan, however, expressed understanding of Wang Qiu'er's current state of mind.

At times, she would ask Ling Shuang to call her by her name in that cold tone.

Back then, I seemed to be not much different from Wang Qiu'er now.

As if she was thinking of some indescribable scene, Jiang Nannan's face gradually turned red.
