He not only has a deep understanding of identifying soul beasts and their age, but also their weaknesses.
"Thanks, mistress!"
Oscar thanked him, excitedly drawing his dagger, his hand trembling slightly.
Xiao Wu rested her forehead on Ye Qiu's shoulder, not daring to look any longer.
Just as Oscar was about to strike and succeed, an old, hoarse voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.
"stop!"
Swish!
Two figures, one old and one young, flew out from the direction from which the crested serpent had come.
Upon landing, spirit rings had already risen beneath his feet.
Both of them are women.
The old man looked to be in his sixties or seventies, with a full head of white hair tied up and secured at the back of his head with a hairpin. Although he had many wrinkles on his face, he looked very healthy.
His cloudy eyes gleamed with a sharp light as he scrutinized the crowd before him.
He held a three-meter-long snake-head cane in his hand, and six standard-equipped spirit rings bounced up and down at his feet.
Beside her was a very pretty girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old.
She had short, black hair that reached her ears, and wore a neat black fitted outfit that tightly hugged her well-developed body. Her two slender, long legs were together, making her look very tall.
Its large, dark brown eyes were fixed intently on the phoenix-tailed crested snake that Zhao Wuji held in his hand.
She also held a snake-headed cane in her right hand, but it was only a little over two meters long, and two yellow spirit rings were pulsating beneath her feet.
Tang San and the others were initially startled when they saw the six spirit rings on Lai Rang's body, but they calmed down after thinking of Zhao Wuji beside them.
But Zhao Wuji was not as calm as they were. Having been out and about for decades, he had naturally guessed the identity of the newcomer.
Ye Qiu stood still, looking as if he had expected this.
The old woman easily detected the soul power levels of Zhu Zhuqing and the others who had just made their move, before they had even put away their soul rings.
She wasn't entirely calm either, and her expression changed slightly.
They thought they could easily capture it, but unexpectedly, a Soul Saint-level expert appeared in the outer area of the Star Dou Great Forest.
The sight of the children around her brought a look of shock to her eyes.
Although they were all younger than their granddaughter, their cultivation levels were by no means weak. Not only was one of the white-haired children about to break through to the Soul Venerable level, but two others were already Soul Venerables at the third ring.
Realizing she had encountered a tough opponent, she didn't want to waste any more time and simply stated her name.
"Respected Soul Saint, I am Chaotianxiang. May I ask your honorable name?"
“Snake Woman’s Incense!” Zhao Wuji said with an expression that said, “I knew it.”
The snake woman smiled politely, secretly relieved. Having a name makes things easier!
"Hehe, please excuse my humble appearance. I am honored by the respect of my friends in the Soul Master world who have bestowed upon me this title. But I am unworthy to accept it in your presence!"
"Snake Granny, stop with the nonsense. Your title of 'Peerless Dragon and Snake' isn't just for show. We're both old hands here. I am... Immovable King Zhao Wuji! Just say what you have to say!"
Zhao Wuji wouldn't take these words seriously. The snake woman's lover was a Soul Douluo named Meng Shu, also known as the Dragon Lord.
Not to mention that their combined dragon-snake attack could defeat a titled Douluo, he alone could not withstand the Dragon Duke.
He was merely a Soul Saint; he knew his own limitations perfectly well, otherwise he would have died several times over!
The Snake Granny's expression changed slightly, and she felt a little worried. "So you are the renowned Immovable King of the Soul Master world!"
Zhao Wuji looked somewhat embarrassed. He did have some reputation, but it was all bad.
If anyone else dared to say that, given his temper, he would have already slapped them with a bear paw.
But since the Dragon God and Snake Goddess are practically inseparable, the Dragon God must be nearby too!
He doesn't want to take action unless absolutely necessary!
The Snake Woman was also adept at reading people's expressions, so she didn't say anything more and went straight to the point.
"I'm a bit older than you, so I'll take the liberty of calling you Brother Zhao! Brother Zhao... you mustn't kill this Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent!"
"Why! Do you want to steal it?" Oscar couldn't hold back any longer; this concerned his third spirit ring.
"You're the ones who stole it from me...!"
The girl behind the Snake Woman, holding a snake-headed cane, pointed it at Oscar with anger on her face.
"Yiran!" The Snake Granny gave her granddaughter a look, telling her to calm down.
"Haha... young brother, don't be impatient. You can see the wounds on the snake's belly and under its wings. I hit it with my snake-head cane."
Zhao Wuji frowned, and after examining the area, he found it to be exactly as she had said.
But he couldn't just give up like that.
"Well, Brother Zhao, could you please do me this favor and return this soul beast to my granddaughter? I will remember this kindness forever and repay it in the future!"
The Snake Woman finally revealed her true intentions.
"Sister Chao, this is putting me in a difficult position. My student also happens to need a third spirit ring!"
Zhao Wuji sneered inwardly. He, the Immovable King, was not one to be taken advantage of without any reward.
"What's so difficult about it? This soul beast originally belonged to us. If we hadn't injured it first, you wouldn't have been able to capture it so easily! Give it back to me now, or we'll be very rude to you!"
As he spoke, he raised the snake-headed cane in his hand again, his phoenix eyes narrowed, and he was very angry.
"Brother Zhao, is there really no room for negotiation?" Snake Granny's face turned ugly.
She knew very well that if it weren't for the intimidating reputation of the peerless dragon and snake, given the Immovable King's style, he would probably have already killed the two of them!
"I'm afraid I can't comply! I think Sister Chao should leave quickly while it's still early!"
Zhao Wuji's expression was somewhat helpless, but he was secretly pleased.
He suddenly remembered that many of his students had impressive backgrounds!
"Grandma! I must have this soul beast..." Meng Yiran said anxiously, because hunting soul beasts is no child's play.
Finding a soul ring that suits you is no easy task.
Chaotianxiang understood this as well, and after a moment of contemplation, she spoke again.
“Brother Zhao, since both sides contributed to capturing it, why don’t we follow the rules of the Soul Master world and have this young man and my granddaughter have a Soul Battle to decide the ownership of this Soul Beast? What do you say?”
Zhao Wuji sighed helplessly.
"I'm sorry, I can't agree..."
"Zhao Wuji, have you been taking advantage of me all this time, or are you just bullying me because my wife isn't around?!"
Chao Tianxiang's face darkened. She had already retreated enough, but he still wouldn't budge!
"Hehe... Sister Chao, how could I dare to deliberately play tricks on you? It's just that my student... he's a food-type Soul Master!"
Zhao Wuji told her that Oscar was a food-type Soul Master.
Chaotianxiang was surprised again, wondering where he had found so many monsters.
I've never seen a food-type Soul Master cultivate so quickly.
With so many people, is there not a single normal one?!
"Teacher Zhao, why don't I take Xiao Ao's place? I'm currently at level 29!"
Just when the situation reached a stalemate, Tang San took the initiative to step forward.
But his movement also brought Ye Qiu, who was standing behind him, into Meng Yiran's view.
Ye Qiu smiled faintly, holding Xiao Wu's hand, and quietly ate the melon.
Meng Yiran's heart skipped a beat. Holding the snake-head cane, she couldn't take her eyes off it for a moment.
Her shoulder-length, dark blue hair, like the color of the sky, still stood out even in the dark forest.
Her eyes were like clear lake water, or like a distant starry sky, very deep and captivating.
He was handsome and elegant, with well-defined features and smooth, silky skin. His fair complexion further accentuated his blue eyes.
It was so bright that it made her heart feel cheerful.
He was tall and upright with a straight back and broad shoulders, yet his physique was both graceful and powerful.
Dressed in a white, fitted outfit inlaid with silver threads, it reflected a faint halo in the dim environment, appearing somewhat hazy yet extremely noble.
Although his smile seemed somewhat casual at that moment, it still made her feel as warm as a spring breeze.
Meng Yiran's heart was pounding.
Ye Qiu looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Zhao Wuji and Chao Tianxiang had already discussed it, so why was this girl staring at him blankly?
When he glanced at her, Meng Yiran felt her breath catch in her throat, and she almost dropped the snake-headed cane in her hand, her face turning red with embarrassment.
"Still, still? Still!"
Chaotianxiang called out several times but received no response. Curious, she turned around and patted her granddaughter on the shoulder.
