Douluo Continent: Narration Modified, Plot Begins to Collapse

Chapter 78 Rescuing Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing

As dawn broke, Meng Yiran finally opened her eyes.

"I finally did it!"

Upon sensing her third spirit ring, Meng Yiran suddenly felt an urge to cry.

For the first time, the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent's spirit rings disappeared!

The second time, Bai Yu beat him to the Human-Faced Demon Spider!

This was her third time, and she finally succeeded!

Bai Yu walked over and smiled:

"Congratulations! What's your soul skill?"

Meng Yiran had long considered him a companion, explaining:

"The wind sweeps away the broken blades; my attack can conjure many serpent spears to strike simultaneously. Each conjured serpent spear has 50% more power and contains the venom of the Azure Serpent."

Bai Yu sincerely praised:

"A very powerful soul skill."

Jiangzhu nodded and then said:

"It's already dawn, let's leave the Star Dou Great Forest as soon as possible."

Bai Yu and Meng Yiran agreed, and the three of them left the cave to continue searching for a way out of the forest.

. . . . . .

"Zhuqing, hold on, we'll be out of here soon!"

Ning Rongrong supported Zhu Zhuqing, who looked listless, breathless, and pale.

Just now, while the two of them were searching for a way out and their companions, they were ambushed by a powerful soul beast. In order to cover Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing lured the soul beast away by herself, but was poisoned as a result.

When she returned to join them, Ning Rongrong found her to be very weak, so she had to help her find a way out of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth. Even though she had grown up listening to terrifying stories about the Star Dou Great Forest in the sect since she was a child, and even though Ning Fengzhi and Sword Bone Douluo had repeatedly told her not to explore the Star Dou Great Forest rashly, she had never taken it to heart.

But now, as a support-type Soul Master walking through the Star Dou Great Forest with a poisoned Great Soul Master, even though there was no movement around her, Ning Rongrong felt as if countless malicious eyes were secretly watching her.

At this moment, she deeply regretted that her martial soul didn't have any healing soul skills, at least that would have helped Zhu Zhuqing heal.

The two moved forward slowly when suddenly, a hundred-year-old wild boar emerged from the bushes, eyeing Ning Rongrong with greedy eyes, making her feel as if she saw Ma Hongjun.

Ma Hongjun was disgusting, but this wild boar terrified her; it wanted to kill her!

Ning Rongrong's face turned pale, and she couldn't help but take two steps back, but Zhu Zhuqing gently pried her hands open and slowly walked up to Ning Rongrong.

"Bamboo Clear!"

Ning Rongrong bit her lip, while Zhu Zhuqing coldly watched the wild boar, activating her soul power to make her two soul rings appear.

The wild boar stopped, its expression clearly hesitant.

For it, a Great Soul Master with a hundred-year-old Soul Ring is not an easy opponent to defeat. If it gets injured in battle, it might become the dinner of other Soul Beasts that night.

After a moment's consideration, the wild boar retreated dejectedly.

Zhu Zhuqing did not immediately retract her soul ring, but continued in this manner to prevent the wild boar from launching a counterattack.

She held the ring for more than ten seconds before retracting it, but suddenly let out a muffled groan and knelt down on one knee.

"Bamboo Clear!"

Ning Rongrong quickly helped her up. Zhu Zhuqing coughed heavily a few times, her face becoming even paler, and even slightly darker.

"Zhu Qing, you just activated your soul power, which caused the toxins in your body to spread even faster!"

Ning Rongrong was extremely anxious, and tears even welled up in her eyes.

Zhu Zhuqing's lips moved, and she softly uttered a single word:

"Walk."

Ning Rongrong bit her lip tightly, helped Zhu Zhuqing up, and continued searching for a way out of the Star Dou Great Forest.

However, misfortunes never come singly. As the two walked, a commotion suddenly arose ahead. Before they could hide, a group of Soul Masters walked out, chatting and laughing.

Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up. It's a human! We're saved!

However, Zhu Zhuqing quietly tugged at her clothes. Ning Rongrong was puzzled, but upon closer inspection, she discovered that the two people at the back of the group were dragging two corpses—human ones!

At the same time, the group also spotted the two women. The woman in the lead gestured for her companions to stop and asked from a distance:

Who are you?

When she asked the question, the two people dragging the corpse quickly backed away, trying to hide the body. However, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing felt that this action was more of a cover-up than a genuine attempt.

Ning Rongrong suppressed her fear and tried her best to keep her tone calm:

"We're just passing through. Excuse me, could you tell me which way the forest exit is?"

The woman narrowed her eyes and made a gesture behind her back with her left hand. The three men and one woman behind her moved to the left and right without making a sound, subtly forming a circle around her.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but take two steps back. The woman said with a forced smile:

"The exit? It's a few hundred meters further in the direction we came from. Judging from your condition, you seem to be injured? Do you need us to take you out?"

Ning Rongrong quickly shook her head:

"No need, thank you!"

At this moment, two men and two women had moved to Ning Rongrong's left and right sides. One of the men licked his lips and lewdly said:

"Young lady, don't be so polite! We've met by chance, which is quite a coincidence. Why don't we a few of us experience the taste of fate?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly lay down on the ground, and a wolf spirit appeared.

He let out a howl and lunged at Ning Rongrong with all four limbs.

Ning Rongrong's face was pale. Zhu Zhuqing stood in front of her, ready to make a move, when suddenly she groaned and knelt on the ground, unable to get up.

"Bamboo Clear!"

Ning Rongrong burst into tears!

However, at that moment, a spear suddenly flew out from nowhere and pierced the man's heart with lightning speed!

"Be careful!"

The man's companion's eyes narrowed, and he summoned his martial spirit, barely managing to deflect the snake spear, but he himself staggered back five steps, his expression horrified.

"Who goes there?!"

The man, who was about to unleash his soul skill, was startled and retreated repeatedly, not daring to make any rash moves.

The next second, the voluptuous Meng Yiran stepped out, casually pulling out the spear that had been knocked in front of her, and coldly said:

"A gang of bandits and brigands, everyone should kill them!"

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were stunned. They recognized Meng Yiran and couldn't believe that she would actually help someone in need.

Seeing that Meng Yiran was alone, the five bandits tacitly split up and four of them surrounded her. Meng Yiran did not make a move, quietly waiting for them to surround her, and then revealed three soul rings.

"Soul Master?"

The bandit leader, the woman, was somewhat surprised but not afraid, because she herself was also a Soul Master. Although the quality of her Soul Rings was not as good as her opponent's, her four subordinates were all Great Soul Masters.

Moreover, Meng Yiran is only one person, while Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing obviously have no fighting power, so the advantage is on my side!

The four surrounded Meng Yiran, and the man whose martial soul was a wolf chuckled lewdly again:

"Not bad, not bad at all, I've actually run into three gorgeous young ladies. I want two of them, the one surnamed Ge, don't you dare try to take them from me!"

Opposite him, another male bandit chuckled:

"I'm too lazy to fight you for it. I want this girl. She has a great figure and is to my liking."

Before he could finish speaking, his companion suddenly punched him in the head. Without warning, his head exploded like a watermelon, splattering red and white matter all over the ground.

The man's headless body fell heavily to the ground, plunging the scene into a deathly silence.
