"I was originally planning to return to Nottingham in a few days to deliver it to you, but since we've run into each other here, I'll just give it to you directly!"

As Wang Teng spoke, he took out a half-meter-long wooden box from his storage soul tool and handed it over.

"what is this?"

Su Yuntao curiously took the wooden box and asked.

Wang Teng opened the box, revealing five or six ginseng roots as thick as a forearm. The roots were intact, and the quality was excellent; they were clearly not ordinary.

"These are some herbs that are still in good condition, ginseng that is 3000 to 5000 years old."

"If you take it, it will strengthen your foundation, replenish your qi and blood, and benefit your health and even your future cultivation."

"hiss--"

Upon hearing this, Su Yuntao gasped.

He had worked at the Spirit Hall for so many years, traveling all over the country, and could be considered a worldly person.

But this was truly the first time he had ever seen ginseng of this quality, size, and age.

"Wang Teng, this...this is too valuable, we can't accept it."

Su Yuntao hesitated and pushed the box back.

"Oh, Brother Tao, just take it, don't be so polite with me."

Without saying a word, Wang Teng shoved the wooden box into his arms.

Before Su Yuntao could say anything more, Wang Teng turned to leave: "Brother Tao, you should leave as soon as you're done absorbing the nutrients. I have something to do, so I'm leaving now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest.

Su Yuntao held the wooden box, staring blankly in the direction Wang Teng had left for a long while before turning to look at his wife.

"Sisi, this..."

Sisi reached out and gently stroked the ginseng in the box, her eyes filled with emotion, and said, "Wang Teng is such a thoughtful child."

"Sisi, I've decided. After the baby is born, let's leave all these things to him."

Su Yuntao suddenly said, "With these good things as a foundation, our child's cultivation path will definitely be much smoother."

Sisi looked down at her still relatively flat stomach, a gentle smile on her face, and nodded lightly, saying, "Yes, that's fine too."

It turns out that Sisi is already pregnant, but it's still early in the pregnancy, less than three months, so it's not obvious yet.

She insisted on coming along with Su Yuntao to hunt souls because she was worried about him, but she almost got into trouble. Luckily, she ran into Wang Teng.

In any case, meeting Wang Teng this time was indeed incredibly lucky for Su Yuntao and Sisi.

The gift that Wang Teng sent was perfectly timed, reaching the person who needed it most.

After exchanging a few more words, the two tidied up and headed out of the forest.

Meanwhile, Wang Teng had already returned to his elder brother Wang Sheng's side.

At this moment, Wang Sheng was still sitting cross-legged in the same spot, with the surrounding fire walls still in place, and the Sacred Firebird Spinning Top and Flame Bird dutifully guarding his side.

The seven-hundred-year-old soul ring was now very light in color, almost imperceptible, indicating that it was about to be completely absorbed.

Wang Teng nodded to the Flaming Bird, put away the spinning top and the sacred beast, and stood quietly to the side waiting.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Wang Sheng opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

He stood up, stretched his limbs, and his face was filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"Big brother, how was it? What's the soul skill?"

Wang Teng asked.

"Look!"

As Wang Sheng spoke, he channeled his soul power, crossed his hands, and suddenly swung them forward.

Two blood-red slashes flew from his hands, whistling as they slashed forward.

Several large trees in front snapped in response and crashed to the ground with clean, sharp cuts, just like the third soul skill that Su Yuntao had demonstrated earlier, only with less power.

"Wow, that's impressive, brother!"

Wang Teng gave a sincere compliment.

"Ha ha!"

Wang Sheng laughed and patted his younger brother on the shoulder, saying gratefully, "Thanks to you for choosing this blood wolf for me. Its age is just right, and its soul skill is also suitable."

"By the way, little brother, I've already broken through to level twenty-two!"

"That's good."

Wang Teng nodded.

"Let's go, go back."

As Wang Sheng spoke, he strode back the way he came.

Wang Teng didn't move; instead, he pulled his older brother and walked in another direction.

"Huh? This isn't the way back."

Wang Sheng was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Little brother, where are you going?"

Without turning his head, Wang Teng said as he walked, "Before leaving, I need to take care of some things."

"what's up?"

"revenge."

"Revenge? Who should we take revenge on?"

"Baron of the Wildfire".

Wang Sheng paused for a moment, then followed.

He didn't ask any more questions, but simply followed closely behind his younger brother.

The two figures quickly disappeared into the layers of trees.

Afterwards, Wang Teng and Wang Sheng traversed the Soul Hunting Forest.

Before coming, Wang Teng had carefully inquired with Sisi and Su Yuntao about the exact location where they encountered the Mountain Fire Baron, so he wasn't exactly wandering around aimlessly. He knew where he was going and headed straight for that direction.

According to Sisi, they met Baron Wildfire on the outskirts of the Soul Hunter Forest, beyond which lies the border of the Immaculate Plains.

The pack of fiery wolves usually roamed the area where the forest edge met the grassland, foraging back and forth between the two sides.

Wang Teng and his companion walked at a brisk pace, and after about half an hour of trekking through the forest, they finally arrived at the area Sisi had mentioned.

The two stopped and stood at the edge of the woods, looking out.

Chapter 257 Revenge: Baron of the Mountain Fire

Nearby were large swathes of waist-high bushes, so dense that the line of sight was blocked.

Further on, there is an endless grassland, with waves of grass undulating in the wind, stretching all the way to the horizon.

Because this area is where forests and grasslands meet, the surrounding terrain is not flat, but rather has many undulating slopes and depressions.

Wang Teng looked around and knew that he couldn't find them by sight alone. If Baron of the Mountain Fire and his group were hiding in some of the low-lying areas of this terrain, they would be hard to find.

"War Tiger: Possession!"

Wang Sheng let out a low shout and immediately channeled his martial spirit.

His already robust physique suddenly expanded even further, his muscles bulged, and a layer of yellow and black tiger-striped fur emerged from his skin.

"Smell—"

Wang Sheng's martial spirit is the War Tiger. After it possesses him, not only does his strength increase dramatically, but his sense of smell also becomes much more sensitive than usual.

He tilted his head back slightly, his nostrils flaring, and carefully sniffed the air in front of him.

After a while, Wang Sheng suddenly stopped moving, as if he had realized something.

"What's wrong, brother?"

Wang Teng noticed his reaction and immediately asked.

"It smells bloody, and quite strongly of it."

Wang Sheng turned his head to look west, pointed, and said, "Over there, little brother."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go."

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng didn't ask any further questions and immediately started walking in that direction.

Wang Sheng quickly followed.

At this moment, Wang Sheng was still a little apprehensive, after all, he didn't know if his little brother could deal with that Baron, whose strength was that of a Soul Master.

However, he ultimately did not stop him, but simply followed silently behind his younger brother.

The two brothers walked through the bushes outside the forest, the grass rustling under their feet.

After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they climbed over a gentle slope and stood at the top, looking down.

A hundred meters ahead, a group of people were gathered together, cleaning up the battlefield.

Around that group of people, there were many corpses of soul beasts lying haphazardly. Bloodstains stained the grass black, and severed limbs and remains were scattered all over the ground. A strong stench was blown by the wind and went straight towards Wang Teng and Wang Sheng.

"The corpse of the Fiery Demon Wolf, and soldiers in armor..."

Wang Teng squinted for a while, then sensed the soul power fluctuations coming from the other side, and muttered, "There's also red hair and triangular eyes. That's right, it should be Baron Mountain Fire's group."

"Little brother, what should we do?"

Looking at the hundreds of people swarming down the slope, Wang Sheng felt a bit pressured and asked in a low voice.

What can we do?

Wang Teng didn't take it seriously and said in a very relaxed tone, "Of course we'll just charge straight in."

He truly didn't take these people seriously.

In Wang Teng's eyes, those hundred or so soldiers were nothing; the only real threat were those few Soul Masters.
