Chapter 27: Heavily Injured Qian Xunji, Ultimate Douluo Moves Out
Just now, seeing Yun Yuan like that, she thought this human brat was going to fight her to the death. But she hadn't expected that, after doing so much, it was all just to escape. She had actually been fooled by this human brat.
"Cunning human. If I run into you again, this auspicious beast definitely won't let you off."
After gritting her teeth and saying this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion began to look for her bodyguard, the Scarlet King, to see whether he had killed that human who tried to capture her.
On the other side—
Relying on his Six-Winged Angel martial soul, Qian Xunji fought while retreating, and in the end, he still managed to escape from the Scarlet King's grasp.
But he himself had suffered severe injuries, and he was separated from his disciple Yun Yuan, with no idea where Yun Yuan had gone.
For Qian Xunji, this was the most unacceptable part. If anything happened to Yun Yuan, then all of his plans for the future of Spirit Hall would come to a complete end.
Moreover, Yun Yuan was not only the future of Spirit Hall but also his disciple.
A soul master who couldn't even protect his own disciple, what qualifications did he have to be a teacher?
Now, he had to return to Spirit Hall. Yun Yuan had the Wind Thunder Wings, so there was still a chance he could survive in the Star Dou Great Forest.
But if too much time passed, accidents might occur. Moreover, the direction Yun Yuan had been blown away by the soul power collision seemed to be the area where that golden soul beast was located.
He had to hurry back and inform his father to go to the Star Dou Great Forest. Only then would there still be a chance to salvage everything.
After Qian Xunji escaped, the Scarlet King felt a slight sense of regret. If not for that light-attribute soul master's martial soul having such strong speed attributes, he might have already been left behind in the Star Dou Great Forest.
However, he had still gained something. Although that light-attribute soul master had escaped, he had inflicted heavy injuries on him, enough to leave a lasting shadow.
After that, he returned to report to the auspicious beast.
Returning to the side of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, the Scarlet King slightly lowered his body, showing the highest respect to the Emperor Destiny Beast.
"Auspicious beast, that human has already been severely injured by me, but unfortunately, he managed to escape."
Then, the Scarlet King continued with a suggestion to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion: "Auspicious beast, perhaps you should return to the depths of the Lake of Life. Your safety is of utmost importance to the Star Dou Great Forest."
Hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion shook her head, her face full of reluctance, and explained to the Scarlet King:
"No, I still want to wander around the Star Dou Great Forest for a while longer. Staying in that place all the time is suffocating me."
"Besides, Scarlet King, don't I still have you protecting me? I'll play for a few more days, then I'll go back to Di Tian with you."
Since her birth until now, she has not come out much. This time, she had snuck out, and unless she got tired of playing in the Star Dou Great Forest, she didn't want to go back.
Seeing that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was still so stubborn, the Scarlet King had no choice. In the entire core region, aside from Di Tian, Bi Ji, and Zi Ji, no one could change this little ancestor's mind.
Helpless, the Scarlet King could only follow the auspicious beast, protecting her safety at all times to prevent something like this from happening again.
A few hours later, Spirit City, Douluo Hall—
Dragging his heavily injured body, Qian Xunji finally returned to this palace. At this moment, his internal organs had already shifted out of place, and traces of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The moment Qian Xunji arrived at the entrance of the Douluo Hall, Qian Daoliu, who was praying inside, sensed it.
In just an instant, Qian Daoliu's figure disappeared from inside the hall and appeared at the entrance.
Seeing Qian Xunji in this state, his heart immediately filled with concern, and he was about to bring him inside for proper treatment.
But seeing Qian Daoliu's actions, Qian Xunji shook his head, then began to explain to him:
"Father, quickly go to the Star Dou Great Forest to find Xiao Yuan. I lost him. My injuries can still be treated, but if you go too late, Xiao Yuan might really be gone."
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu frowned deeply, his heart filled with confusion as he questioned Qian Xunji:
"Ji'er, what exactly happened? What did you encounter in the Star Dou Great Forest?"
Faced with his father Qian Daoliu's questioning, Qian Xunji made a long story short and directly recounted what had happened in the Star Dou Great Forest.
The cause was that he wanted to capture a golden super soul beast but encountered its guardian, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast capable of speaking human language.
Then he and Yun Yuan were separated by the impact. Yun Yuan was blown away, while he endured the terrifying soul beast's attacks and escaped the Star Dou Great Forest.
After briefly explaining the course of events, Qian Xunji informed him of the approximate location where he had separated from Yun Yuan. If Qian Daoliu wanted to find Yun Yuan, that would be the best place to start.
After hearing everything, Qian Daoliu's expression gradually became solemn. He feared that, by the time he found Yun Yuan, he might already be a corpse.
"Ji'er, I'll have your uncles treat you first. Next, I will go with your Uncle Golden Crocodile to the Star Dou Great Forest to find Xiao Yuan."
"Don't worry. As long as Xiao Yuan is still alive, I will definitely bring him back. If he has truly fallen, then I will overturn the entire Star Dou Great Forest and slaughter those two soul beasts to accompany him in death."
As his words fell, Qian Daoliu sent Qian Xunji into the Douluo Hall, letting the other five Worship elders treat him.
As for Qian Daoliu himself, he brought along Golden Crocodile Douluo and headed to the Star Dou Great Forest to search for Yun Yuan.
Not long after, two streaks of golden light shot across the sky above Spirit Hall, heading straight toward the Star Dou Great Forest near Spirit City.
"Grand Worship, what happened?"
Flying through the air with Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile Douluo felt puzzled and could not help but ask.
"Old Jin, this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest is to find Xiao Yuan. He has gone missing there."
…
"If we can't find Xiao Yuan, I'll take you to scour the entire Star Dou Great Forest, and we will kill those two soul beasts no matter what."
As he flew, Qian Daoliu described to Golden Crocodile Douluo what had happened to Qian Xunji. By the end, a bone-chilling killing intent appeared in his otherwise indifferent eyes.
If anything truly happened to Yun Yuan, he would avenge him no matter the cost.
One hour later—
Because Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile Douluo were far stronger than Qian Xunji, it took them only one hour to arrive at the Star Dou Great Forest near Spirit City.
Arriving at the location Qian Xunji had described, Qian Daoliu looked down.
Traces of the battle between Qian Xunji and the Scarlet King still remain here. He could even sense the lingering angelic soul power in the air.
"This is the place."
"Old Jin, we split up now to search for Xiao Yuan. But if we encounter those two soul beasts, capture them first."
Based on Qian Xunji's description, Qian Daoliu could roughly estimate that the three-headed mastiff's strength was equivalent to rank ninety-six to ninety-seven among human soul masters.
Golden Crocodile Douluo was a rank ninety-eight Super Douluo, while he himself was a rank ninety-nine Ultimate Douluo. Capturing that three-headed mastiff and the Three-Eyed soul beast would not be difficult.
