Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor

Chapter 258 Tianmeng's Aggrieved Feelings, Xiong Jun Bows His Head!

Tianmeng Bingcan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Just as he was about to persuade him again, a cold and piercing angry shout rang out from beside him!
"Tianmeng, shut up!"

Hyotei stared intently at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm with her emerald green eyes, her gaze filled with undisguised anger and disdain.

"Whose side are you on? You're a million-year-old soul beast, after all. They captured you and used you as a cultivation resource, absorbing your life essence every day. And now you're acting like a nice guy here?"

The Snow Emperor's cold voice followed, carrying a chilling aura and the arrogance of a superior.

"Hmph! Since this stupid bear is so disrespectful to Little White, then it's disrespectful to me and Ice Emperor. In the end, it only has a mere 460,000 years of cultivation, while I have 700,000 years!"

"Even though my physical body is gone, my primordial power remains. I want to see how someone whose metal attribute is only close to its peak can contend with my ultimate ice. Is it so powerful just because you possess a trace of the insignificant ancient Behemoth bloodline?"

Having spent so much time with Hu Bai, the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor had long regarded him as their closest family member.

Now, someone actually dares to challenge Hu Bai's authority right in front of them. They should ask the two of them for their consent first!

In their eyes, Xiaobai was such a good person, always so gentle and kind in his interactions with others.

This bear probably thought Little White was easy to bully, so it wanted to give him a warning first.

This kind of behavior is absolutely intolerable!
As for whether Xiong Jun's death would lead to a riot among the soul beast race, or even a beast tide, that was not a question they needed to consider.

They firmly believed that Xiaobai was never an impulsive person, and that he must have his reasons for doing this!

What they need to do is offer unconditional support!

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was stunned by the retorts from Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor, and immediately felt extremely wronged.

"I...I wasn't speaking up for them at all. I was just...just thinking about the bigger picture."

His voice grew quieter.

Wang Qiu'er, who was in the middle of the field, was completely bewildered at this moment.

She never imagined that her simple intention to bring Little White Brother home to let him know would suddenly escalate into such a conflict.

On one side is Xiong Jun, whom she has respected since childhood, and on the other side is Xiao Bai, whom she has just recognized and feels incredibly close to.

"Bear King, why aren't you apologizing yet!"

Wang Qiu'er was so anxious she was almost crying. She shouted at Xiong Jun, "Even if the Lord and Uncle Di Tian come back, they won't be able to protect you!"

After shouting, she immediately turned around, grabbed Hu Bai's sleeve, and said in an almost pleading tone:

"Brother Xiaobai, please, for my sake, spare his life after he apologizes, okay?"

"Although you have many divine artifacts, this is still a divine artifact. It's not worth using one of them for him."

In desperation, Wang Qiu'er started to act coquettishly towards Hu Bai, her voice unconsciously becoming high-pitched, making anyone's heart melt.

However, the one who felt the most uncomfortable at this moment was Xiong Jun himself.

As the central target of the pressure from the eight divine artifacts, he was the one who could most directly experience that despairing terror.

Don't be fooled by his current surge in power, his transformation into his true form, and his imposing presence.

But in reality, he felt as if he were being suppressed by eight divine mountains, making it extremely difficult to even move a single claw.

The violently distorted space above was almost forming a bottomless vortex, emanating a deathly aura that made his soul tremble.

He is thinking.

He was faced with a choice between life and death and dignity.

Should we apologize and admit our mistake?
If he apologizes, then he, "Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear," will have completely lost face today.

How can he hold his head high as a beast in the Star Dou Great Forest after this?

If he doesn't apologize, he'll probably really die here today.

Just as Xiong Jun was struggling with his inner conflict, Bi Ji saw that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm didn't seem to be lying, and that the two overlords of the far north, the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor, were so protective of this human, so she hurriedly stepped forward.

She bowed deeply to Hu Bai, her voice filled with anxiety and earnestness.

"My lord! I apologize on behalf of Mr. Xiong! Please, be merciful, may I?"

The Emerald Swan, the gentlest and kindest of the ten ferocious beasts, lowered her noble head for the sake of her companion.

The Demon King and Zi Ji, who were standing to the side, also sighed and bowed in greeting.

"My lord, Xiong Jun is just a rough man, straightforward and not very bright, but he absolutely has no intention of harming you. Please be lenient with him."

Seeing his old beast friends, who usually treated him like a brother and guarded the stars together, bowing down to a human for his sake, he was overjoyed.

For some reason, Xiong Jun's heart, which was filled with anger and pride, suddenly felt a pang of guilt and bitterness.

Yes, they caused the trouble themselves, so why should they bear the consequences?
"Yes, I'm sorry."

Xiong Jun managed to squeeze out those three words from his throat with difficulty.

His voice was hoarse and dry, and he had lost all his previous imposing manner.

This time, he really met his match, a tough opponent even tougher than Di Tian!

As soon as those three words were uttered, it was as if all his strength had been drained away, and his once soaring, fierce aura instantly weakened.

He knew that he was finished.

It wasn't that I lost my life, but that my state of mind was shattered.

For soul beasts of their cultivation level, a damaged mental state is more terrifying than a serious injury.

This means that it will be extremely difficult for him to advance his cultivation level any further in the future.

Biji and the other ferocious beasts naturally understood this as well. Looking at Xiong Jun's appearance, they felt both relieved and saddened.

But a damaged mental state is better than losing your life.

Who can blame Xiong Jun? He always acts like he's the boss and nobody respects him.

Well, now they've finally met their match.

Ultimately, it was Xiong Jun who was in the wrong.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that Hu Bai hunted was not from the Star Dou Great Forest at all; it was at most a distant branch that had been separated from them by countless generations.

Hu Bai brought his auspicious beast, clearly showing his sincerity and wanting to discuss something.

As a result, before he could even finish two sentences, Xiong Jun, that simpleton, forcibly interrupted him and even tried to hit him.

Isn't this self-defeating?

Seeing that Xiong Jun finally admitted his mistake, Hu Bai's lips curled up slightly, and the cold killing intent instantly dissipated.

With a thought, the light of the eight divine artifacts floating around Xiong Jun dissipated and returned to his body.

The spatial vortex that was about to take shape also vanished into thin air.

Everything has returned to calm.

He didn't actually intend to start a life-or-death arena.

Just now in the Sea of ​​Spirit, he secretly transmitted his voice to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, asking him to step forward, tell them about the life-and-death arena he was going to use next, and play the role of peacemaker.

However, he didn't tell the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor, so as to make the performance more realistic. After all, it would be too much of a loss to sacrifice a precious divine artifact for a mere Bear Lord, and he wouldn't do such a foolish thing.

As the crisis subsided, Xiong Jun's enormous body rapidly shrank, returning to the human form of the black-haired strongman, only his face was pale and his expression was listless, as if he had been hollowed out.

Hu Bai then secretly winked at the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in his spiritual sea and transmitted his voice through his spiritual power: "Well done, I'll give you credit for this. I'll explain it to you and the Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor later."

Tianmeng Bingcan finally felt a little better.

After all, he was clearly firmly on Xiaobai's side, but he was scolded by Bingdi and Xuedi, and he felt extremely wronged.

Now that I've received the boss's approval, it's no wonder I was scolded for nothing.

Sigh, is it easy to be a worm?

too difficult!
Hu Bai looked at the group of ferocious beasts that had lowered their noble heads, his expression calm, as if he were not the one who had been filled with murderous intent just now.

He said calmly, "Since you've apologized, let's just let this matter drop."

A seemingly casual remark carries undeniable weight.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qiu'er and Bi Ji breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon.

The bear, lying on the ground looking dejected, felt the invisible pressure on its body completely disappear, and almost collapsed from exhaustion.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Hu Bai had changed from resentment and provocation to deep apprehension and fear.

Meanwhile, Ice Emperor, Snow Emperor, and Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm remained in their soul form, quietly hovering behind Hu Bai, without returning to his sea of ​​consciousness.

Their very existence is a silent deterrent.

With Di Tian and the Lord Gu Yue Na no longer here, the only one who can truly rule this place is the Emerald Swan, Bi Ji.

She composed herself, stepped forward, and respectfully asked Hu Bai, "May I ask what brings you here today? How did the auspicious beast suddenly transform into human form?"

Hu Bai smiled, completely suppressing his domineering aura and returning to his previous gentle demeanor.

"I just underwent a divine trial on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest and entered a place of inheritance called Thunder God Canyon."

"As for Qiu'er, she must have sensed the same power of destiny in the forest, which is why she ran away out of curiosity and then met us."

Hearing this explanation, Biji glared helplessly at Wang Qiu'er beside her.

This girl is incredibly bold!

"So, your current human name is Wang Qiu'er? That's quite a nice name."

Knowing she was in the wrong, Wang Qiu'er playfully stuck out her little tongue, not daring to look Bi Ji in the eye.

She knew she had gotten herself into trouble this time, and if it weren't for Brother Xiaobai's strength, things would have been really difficult to handle today.

"Sister Brigitte."

Wang Qiu'er ran to Bi Ji's side, affectionately took her hand, and said coquettishly, "Now my fate is intertwined with Brother Xiao Bai's, and because of this, my power of fate has increased a lot."

"Besides, I'm really curious about what the outside world is like, so..."

Brigitte has sighed countless times today.

However, amidst all this trouble, we finally heard some good news.

If the auspicious beasts can enhance their destiny power, it will be a tremendous boon to the entire Star Dou Great Forest, meaning that the forest's future fortune will be even more prosperous.

Seeing this, Hu Bai smiled and spoke up, giving Bi Ji a way out and reassuring her.

"It would be good to let her go out and see the outside world. After she transforms into human form, staying in human society will definitely help her improve her strength much faster than staying in the forest."

"Moreover, with me here, her life is completely guaranteed."

Hu Bai answered the two questions that Brigitte was most worried about.

"Although the lifespan of a soul beast is greatly shortened after it transforms into human form, Qiu'er is, after all, a darling of the Star Dou constellation and a special existence."

As long as her cultivation level keeps up, her lifespan shouldn't be a problem.

"Furthermore, I can tell you something."

His gaze swept over Biji, Ziji, the Demon King, and the other ferocious beasts, his tone indifferent:

"In the future, after I achieve the position of God King, I will need to build my own team."

Hu Bai stopped there.

This can no longer be considered a hint; it's practically an explicit statement!
As soon as the words fell, the breathing of Biji, Ziji, and the three demon kings became rapid!

An unbelievable look of surprise flashed in their eyes at the same time!

The throne of the God-King! The core team!
They knew perfectly well what these words together represented!

This means that Hu Bai has already internally designated Wang Qiu'er as a member of his future God King team!
This is a tremendous good thing for Wang Qiu'er and for the entire Star Dou Great Forest!

Once Wang Qiu'er becomes a god in the future, she will be a true beast god!

The power of destiny she carries will not disappear after she leaves Douluo Continent. Instead, it will protect the forest where she was born forever in a higher form!

Having figured this out, Brigitte's last lingering concerns vanished, replaced by deep curiosity.

"What is your purpose in doing this?" she couldn't help but ask.

Hu Bai chuckled and shook his head.

"Beauty, do you think I'm doing this for the sake of your soul beast race?"

"That's not the case at all. Everything I've done is simply for the long-term development of humanity."

"Think about it, the current rate of human development and the speed at which our strength increases is dozens, or even hundreds of times faster than that of your soul beasts."

"If this unrestrained development continues, your Star Dou's soul beasts will probably be reduced to nothing but high and mighty ferocious beasts in tens of thousands of years."

"By then, the ecological development of the entire continent will be severely unbalanced, which will be detrimental to the future of humanity. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hu Bai explained it in a very simple and easy-to-understand way.

Not only Brigitte, but all the ferocious beasts present understood.

It turns out, he was still acting for humanity.

But precisely because he stood high enough and saw far enough, his plan also included the future of the soul beast race.

Perhaps this is something that their soul beast race should be thankful for?

Having figured all this out, Brigitte stopped worrying about anything else.

She turned around, gently patted Wang Qiu'er's head, her eyes filled with love and reluctance.

"Qiu'er, since you've made up your mind, I support you."

"After we leave Xingdou, you must listen to Brother Xiaobai, okay?"
