Douluo Continent: I am a Hyperion larva, and I devour Xiao Wu at the start.

Chapter 3: High-quality food has been discovered, Xiao Wu!

After absorbing the wolf-type soul beast, Jiang Chen had been searching for other soul beasts in this forest.

As soon as Jiang Chen discovers a soul beast, he goes up to hunt it down and then absorbs it directly.

Although this forest is just a small forest near a human village, there are still some soul beasts there.

Jiang Chen successively hunted down four rabbit-type soul beasts, two spider-type soul beasts, one plant-type soul beast, and one bear-type soul beast.

Among them, the bear-type soul beasts were the strongest among the soul beasts that Jiang Chen hunted. Although these were all ten-year-old soul beasts, they were all instantly killed by Jiang Chen with a single strike.

But it provides the most energy.

After hunting down these spirit beasts, Jiang Chen couldn't find any other spirit beasts in the forest.

"What a pity, there are really too few soul beasts; not enough to eat."

This is actually normal; there are many spirit beasts in the forests near a human village.

It's questionable whether the village can even survive.

Once he was certain that there were no other soul beasts in the forest, Jiang Chen prepared to return to the outskirts of Emperor Soul Village.

When Jiang Chen returned to Emperor Soul Village, the sun had just set.

Jiang Chen glanced towards Emperor Soul Village, and after confirming that there was no sign of Brother Tao, he found a treetop to sleep on.

The next day.

The morning sunlight filters through the trees, leaving trails of light.

Jiang Chen, who woke up early, stood at the top of a tree, looking at the road in the distance, waiting for Brother Tao to arrive.

Jiang Chen, as a Hypa larva, basically doesn't need to sleep unless he eats high-quality food.

Sleeping at night was just a habit Jiang Chen had when he was human.

"Hey! Brother Tao!"

Suddenly, Jiang Chen, who was at the top of the tree, saw a carriage slowly approaching from the road in the distance.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Brother Tao's carriage.

Sitting in the carriage, Su Yuntao felt that he had been having the worst luck lately.

First, they were attacked by an unknown soul beast. If that soul beast hadn't left for some reason...

He's probably about to meet his end somewhere.

Then he went to awaken the village, and a great achievement of having innate full soul power appeared.

The result was a waste mixture of Blue Silver Grass.

"Sigh." Su Yuntao missed Sisi a little, missed Sisi's every smile and frown.

"My lord, we have arrived at Emperor Soul Village." Upon arriving at Emperor Soul Village, the coachman whispered to the carriage.

Upon hearing that they had arrived at the next village, Su Yuntao patted his face to cheer himself up.

He represents the Spirit Hall and came to awaken the village; he wasn't just a picture of dejection.

After calming himself down, Su Yuntao got off the carriage and stood tall with his head held high.

When the village chief of Emperor Soul Village saw the Martial Spirit Hall officials descending, he hurriedly went up to greet them.

He flattered Su Yuntao while leading him to the right place.

Soon, they brought Su Yuntao to the house where he had awakened. In front of the house were all the children of the appropriate age from Emperor Soul Village.

No, it seems this isn't the village.

Jiang Chen, who had come down from the treetop and circled the village to the roof of the house where the martial spirit had awakened, was extremely disappointed.

Among the children below, there was none of the big gift package that Jiang Chen had been longing for.

Having seen that there was no big gift package, Jiang Chen stopped paying attention to what happened afterward.

Jiang Chen glanced at Brother Tao, who was displaying his martial spirit in front of the crowd:

"Brother Tao, I'll be waiting for you in the next village."

Jiang Chen left soon after, heading to the next village.

After a long journey, Jiang Chen arrived at the next village.

Upon arriving at the village, Jiang Chen circled around it once more.

After observing the layout of the village, we then entered the forest surrounding the village.

He began his hunting journey.

In the forest surrounding the village, Jiang Chen hunted down six rabbits, two wolves, three snakes, a tiger, and two plants.

When Jiang Chen was doing the final tally, he discovered that there were a lot of rabbit soul beasts.

After absorbing all these soul beasts, Jiang Chen felt very comfortable.

These are only tenth-level soul beasts. If they were 100,000-year-old soul beasts, Jiang Chen would think he would be incredibly excited.

Jiang Chen remained lying atop the tallest tree, waiting for Brother Tao to arrive.

For the rest of the time, Jiang Chen waited for Brother Tao repeatedly.

Brother Tao arrived, and the village chief greeted him. Jiang Chen hid on the roof of the Awakening Hall.

Disappointed at not finding Xiao Wu, Jiang Chen left.

Jiang Chen arrived at the next village, hunting soul beasts to improve himself, and waited for Brother Tao at the top of the tree.

When Brother Tao arrived, the village chief greeted him, while Jiang Chen observed from the rooftop.

Without Xiao Wu, Jiang Chen left in disappointment.

Jiang Chen repeated this operation a full six times!

On the seventh time, Jiang Chen watched Tao Ge's carriage from the treetop:

"Brother Tao, this is the seventh time already, and Xiao Wu still hasn't appeared. I'll just give you your martial soul directly!"

Looking at Brother Tao's carriage, Jiang Chen thought viciously.

Su Yuntao, who was inside the carriage, suddenly felt a chill and shivered.

"What's going on?! I have this feeling of being watched!"

Feeling a little flustered, Su Yuntao lifted the carriage curtain and looked outside.

After observing for a while and confirming that everything was fine and there was nothing strange, Su Yuntao lowered the carriage curtain:

"I'm probably overthinking it. Only two villages left. After I awaken, I can go back to see Sisi."

Realizing he was just being paranoid, Su Yuntao stopped looking outside the car, and the feeling of being watched disappeared.

Upon arriving at the village, Su Yuntao was greeted by the village chief and then proceeded to the front of the Awakening Hall within the village.

At this moment, all the children of school age in the entire village were gathered in front of the Awakening Hall.

"My name is Su Yuntao, a Soul Master from the Spirit Hall. I will be responsible for awakening your Martial Souls from now on."

Su Yuntao spoke to the children below.

The Spirit Hall.

As Su Yuntao spoke, a man dressed in pink and wearing rabbit ears appeared below him.

The girl with the long ponytail looked at Su Yuntao and thought to herself.

Xiao Wu felt a deep hatred for the existence of the Spirit Hall.

If it weren't for the Spirit Hall, her mother wouldn't have died, and she wouldn't have become a child without a mother!

At this moment, Xiao Wu, who was preparing to awaken and infiltrate human society, was unaware that a Hypa larva above her head was drooling with longing.

"My little rabbit, you've finally arrived! A 100,000-year-old soft-boned rabbit, a truly nourishing delicacy!"

Before finding Xiao Wu, Jiang Chen was somewhat anxious and even considered eating Tao Ge's martial spirit.

But once he actually found Xiao Wu, Jiang Chen wasn't in a hurry at all.

Xiao Wu is currently powerless and far from the Star Dou Great Forest, so she is already Jiang Chen's possession!

After Su Yuntao led the children to awaken their martial souls, he discovered that Xiao Wu possessed soul power at a considerable level and was a promising talent, so he extended an invitation to her.

But Xiao Wu refused. How could she, burdened with a blood feud, possibly join the Spirit Hall!

Su Yuntao felt a little sorry for Xiao Wu's rejection, but he didn't force her.

He simply saw the child with spiritual power and thought he could invite him.

Since he had refused, he didn't press the matter further.

After awakening, Su Yuntao left, while Xiao Wu waited in the village for Notting Academy to start.

Time passed, and the moon and stars grew few.

Jiang Chen arrived at the house where Xiao Wu lived; he was about to enjoy his feast.
