Douluo: The Son of Martial Soul, Deceiving All the Women

Chapter 165 A Gallop of Beasts
Dai Mubai looked embarrassed. He didn't want to ask Bai Yu for it either. That bastard Bai Yu had a grudge against him for stealing his wife!
But he couldn't do anything about it. Asking Tang San and the others for it felt too risky. What if he won in the future? Wouldn't that give him a chance to become emperor?

But the fact that he had been castrated must not be revealed, otherwise, let alone becoming emperor, his cold-blooded father could kill him right now.

That's why he didn't tell Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, for fear that they would leak it. As for Bai Yu, although he hated him to the core, he was a man of his word and his reputation was impeccable.

As long as Baiyu agrees not to reveal it, he will definitely keep it a secret.

“Ahem, Brother Bai, this matter cannot be known to others. Tang San is too ruthless, and Yu Xiaogang is even less reliable. He will do anything to become famous.”

"After thinking it over, I think it's safest to ask you for it from you, Brother Bai. I just hope you can promise me that you won't tell anyone else about this."

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself, "This guy's got some nerve. He's not only trying to save his life, but he's also starting to plan for becoming emperor in the future."

He then shook his head slightly. Dai Mubai had miscalculated. If he had just stayed hidden, he might have been lucky and wouldn't have died.

After all, once Bai Yu's plan is launched, the Star Luo Empire might not even exist for a few more years. Going to become emperor at this time would be asking for trouble, wouldn't it?

"Xiao Bai, why don't you think about it again? If you castrate him, you won't have the chance to live a life of debauchery in the future."

"Besides, even if you just hide outside and don't go back, your brother and your father might not bother to look for you, so why bother?"

Dai Mubai looked somewhat conflicted, but then firmly shook his head.

"No, the probability is too small. I can't afford to gamble. I need to have the strength to decide my own destiny. Brother Bai, please say yes!"

That was indeed what he originally thought; he planned to stay far away and hope that his brother wouldn't come looking for him and would just ignore him.

But ever since he saw Yu Xiaogang show off his skills, his heart has been itching like it's been scratched by a cat.

Ultimately, he still had some ambitions for the throne, and it wasn't just about surviving.

Seeing that Dai Mubai was determined to have it, Bai Yu shrugged. He had already given her the opportunity, and if she couldn't seize it, then there was nothing she could do.

"Alright, here's the cultivation technique. I also promise to keep this a secret. But I advise you to think it over carefully."

"Look at Master Yu. The night we went to the hotel, everyone else was having fun, but he just walked away. Wasn't he upset?"

As Bai Yu spoke, she took out the cultivation manual from her soul tool, handed it to Dai Mubai, and then turned and left.

Since Zhu Zhuqing started following him, Dai Mubai, despite his resentment, never caused him any trouble.

Seeing how honest he was, Baiyu only tried to persuade him twice. As for whether he would listen or not, she would leave it to fate. His father didn't care about him, so why should she care so much?

Afterwards, Baiyu returned to Guyuena's place, and the three of them traveled through a spatial passage to the Lake of Life.

"White Fish, I'm going to summon the soul beasts today. Are you planning to record them all at once, or take it one step at a time?"

Gu Yuena looked at Bai Yu and spoke.

Bai Yu quickly waved his hand, "Record it all in one go? Are you kidding me? Even if recording soul beasts under 100,000 years old is relatively simple, it will still take a very long time!"
"No, I can't wait. Anyway, with you here, the round trip is quick. We can record during the day and go back at night, so it won't delay anything." Gu Yuena glanced at Bai Yu. This bastard has a thick skin. He won't delay anything, but she'll still have to pick him up and drop him off.

However, Gu Yuena didn't object. She had time anyway, so she figured she could just offer to pick her up and drop her off. She then released her aura and said:
"All leaders of the soul beast clans and lone travelers over 50,000 years old, come to the center of the forest for an audience. No one may disobey this order!"

The voice wasn't loud, but it traveled with the aura, allowing every soul beast that sensed it to hear Gu Yuena's command.

As soon as Gu Yuena finished speaking, the peaceful Star Dou Great Forest erupted in an instant. The roars and screams of beasts echoed throughout the forest, and all kinds of beasts ran rampant.

The white fish grinned. This commotion was quite something. The humans who went hunting in the forest today were in for a treat.

Soul beasts may be in a hurry to travel and might not necessarily kill people, but their demeanor is enough to give people psychological trauma.

Nearly half an hour later, the area around the Lake of Life was tightly surrounded by all sorts of soul beasts. As far as the eye could see, they were densely packed, giving the impression that they were countless.

Bai Yu's lips twitched, and cold sweat seeped from his forehead. He knew there were many high-level soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, but he didn't expect so many. How long would it take to record all of this?
What surprised him even more was that the soul beasts that came here included not only beasts and birds, but also insects and plants.
Insects aside, although very few reach such a high age, there are exceptions after all. But the fact that plants could also do it surprised him.

These things take root wherever they land, and they rarely move or transform. But I never expected them to be so tough; they just uprooted themselves and came over here.

"Hiss, I didn't expect plant-type soul beasts to come too? I thought I would have to find them slowly later."

Hearing Bai Yu's mutterings, Zi Ji rolled her eyes at him and said disdainfully:
"Ha, what do you take the Lord's orders for? Unless they are truly unable to move, who would dare not come?"

Bai Yu gave an awkward smile and was about to offer some compliments when Gu Yuena waved her hand at them and squinted as she looked south.

“Ziji, you’re wrong. There really is one. Judging from the situation, he has some special power.”

"Never mind that for now, I'll take care of these soul beasts first."

When Zi Ji heard Gu Yuena say that a soul beast had disobeyed orders, her eyebrows furrowed immediately, and she wanted to ask which fool was so bold.

But Gu Yuena said to ignore it for now, so Zi Ji could only suppress her anger and shut up indignantly.

“I have summoned you here because I have something to tell you. From today onward, you shall come here every morning and leave in the evening.”

"See that human? When I'm not around, you all obey his orders and must not disobey. Alright, those who have lived for 100,000 years, stay. The rest of you, leave now."

As soon as Gu Yuena finished speaking, the surrounding area erupted in roars of beasts in response to her command. Then the beast horde began to disperse, leaving only two 100,000-year-old soul beasts behind.

One is a 100,000-year-old Bright Butterfly King, and the other is actually a plant-type soul beast, a 100,000-year-old Natural Jade Tree. These things are very rare.

When the Jade Tree is born without wisdom, it is like the Immortal Herb in the White Fish's hand—both are considered rare and precious treasures.

But it was clearly very lucky; not only did it not get picked and eaten, it actually survived to this height.

Comparatively speaking, the immortal herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes are quite unlucky. Suppressed by the aura of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings, they cannot develop intelligence at all.
