Chapter 33: The Agreement, a Gift for Breaking Through to Soul Saint
While Qian Daoliu and Bi Ji were talking, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's gaze remained fixed on Yun Yuan, as if she wanted to etch his image deep into her heart.
Seeing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion sizing him up, Yun Yuan's eyes darted around as an idea formed in his mind; he wanted to properly annoy the Emperor Auspicious Beast in front of him.
Looking at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Yun Yuan teased directly:
"Big kitty, what are you looking at? Haven't you seen a human before?"
With Qian Daoliu by his side, he wasn't afraid of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's retaliation. Besides, he was just saying a few words to annoy her; a Soul Beast of Bi Ji's level wouldn't mind.
Hearing Yun Yuan call her a big kitty, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion grew angry and bared her teeth at him.
"Human, what did you say?!"
"I am not some big kitty! I am the noble Emperor Auspicious Beast. Do you even know what an Emperor Auspicious Beast is? The most precious Soul Beast in the entire Star Dou Great Forest!"
But Yun Yuan paid no heed to this. With a relaxed expression, he continued to speak to himself:
"Oh, I see, big kitty. You're the noble Emperor Auspicious Beast."
Hearing this, the fury within the Three-Eyed Golden Lion could no longer be suppressed, and she wanted to step forward to teach Yun Yuan a lesson.
But in the next moment, her head was directly held down by Bi Ji beside her, who earnestly cautioned the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
"Auspicious Beast, you mustn't do that. You must be well-behaved and stay right here by my side. You're not allowed to go anywhere, understood?"
After admonishing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Bi Ji's eyes turned toward Qian Daoliu, as if asking if he should also discipline the mischievous junior beside him.
To this, Qian Daoliu merely chuckled and then simply gave Yun Yuan a look, telling him to stop annoying the Auspicious Beast.
Once Bi Ji had calmed the Three-Eyed Golden Lion down, she took her back to the bottom of the Lake of Life to prevent her from wandering around outside and encountering another accident.
After this incident, she had come to realize the terrifying strength of human Soul Masters and the power of human factions.
Especially the Qian Daoliu before her; according to Di Tian's description, he was the representative of Divinity in the human world, and the faction behind him was also one that inherited a Divinity.
Faced with such a faction, their Star Dou Great Forest truly could not compare. After all, human Divinities were not very friendly toward Soul Beasts.
After Bi Ji and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion left, Qian Daoliu circulated his Angel Soul Power, forming a signature pattern in the sky.
This pattern was the one he used to summon the Gold Crocodile Douluo. Once the Gold Crocodile Douluo saw this pattern, he would naturally come to rendezvous with him.
After Qian Daoliu finished all this, Yun Yuan looked at him with worry on his face and asked:
"Grandmaster, how is Teacher's injury? Is it serious?"
This was what Yun Yuan was curious about. If Qian Xunji truly suffered an injury that affected his foundation and could not be healed,
Then once his own strength was sufficient, he would come directly to the Star Dou Great Forest to slay that Scarlet King and vent his anger for Qian Xunji.
Seeing Yun Yuan so concerned about Qian Xunji, a gratified smile appeared on Qian Daoliu's face, and he patted Yun Yuan's head.
Yun Yuan was truly a good disciple. It was Jier's blessing to have such a sensible disciple.
"Don't worry. Although your teacher is heavily injured, our Spirit Hall believes in Divinity. Your teacher's injuries will heal after some time."
Knowing that Qian Xunji was not in any grave danger, the heavy stone in Yun Yuan's heart finally fell, and his mood became somewhat more upbeat.
A short while later, after seeing the signal sent by Qian Daoliu, the Gold Crocodile Douluo also returned to Qian Daoliu's side.
Then, the three of them waited there for Di Tian's arrival, waiting for him to deliver a 100,000-year Soul Bone.
As time passed, the power of darkness shrouded the sky above Qian Daoliu, and a massive black dragon several hundred meters long appeared.
The moment he saw Di Tian descend, Yun Yuan's heart skipped a beat. What a powerful aura, what a massive body.
The pressure brought by Di Tian was the most terrifying Yun Yuan had seen to date; even the combined presence of Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen did not bring as much pressure as Di Tian.
Beside him, Golden Crocodile was also filled with shock upon seeing Di Tian. Now, he finally understood why Qian Daoliu had used his full strength just now.
The black dragon above was unfathomable. If it weren't for the fact that there were no Divinities in the human world, Golden Crocodile would have suspected that this black dragon was a living Divine Beast.
"Human, here is the 100,000-year Soul Bone you wanted."
"From now on, we stay out of each other's way. The matter of the Auspicious Beast is settled."
As soon as he finished speaking, a 100,000-year torso Spirit Bone radiating Wind and Thunder attributes fell into Qian Daoliu's hand.
After giving this 100,000-year Soul Bone to Qian Daoliu, Di Tian took one last glance at Yun Yuan and then used his space ability to leave.
"Darkness attribute, Space attribute... this Soul Beast named Di Tian is truly not simple."
Seeing Di Tian use a space skill, Qian Daoliu was slightly shocked inwardly; the strength of this black dragon might even exceed his imagination.
However, Qian Daoliu didn't care. After this matter, he likely wouldn't have any further interaction with this Di Tian.
Moreover, Di Tian seemed to be very afraid of the Divinity behind his Spirit Hall. As long as his Spirit Hall existed in the world, it would make Di Tian feel apprehensive.
Rather than worrying about a Soul Beast like Di Tian, Qian Daoliu would rather spend more effort on Tang Chen, who was, after all, his lifelong rival.
After obtaining this 100,000-year Soul Bone with Wind and Thunder attributes, Qian Daoliu waved it in front of Yun Yuan and asked:
"Xiao Yuan, do you want this 100,000-year Soul Bone?"
Hearing this, Yun Yuan's head nodded continuously like a chicken pecking at rice, not hiding the desire in his heart.
A 100,000-year Soul Beast's treasure was a rare sight in this era, let alone a torso bone with Wind and Thunder attributes, which happened to match his External Soul Bone, the Wind Thunder Wings.
Naturally, Yun Yuan wanted it.
Seeing the desire in Yun Yuan's eyes, Qian Daoliu did not blame him; instead, he looked at Yun Yuan with two looks of praise.
If Yun Yuan didn't even have a trace of desire when facing a 100,000-year Soul Bone, that would be an insult to the profession of a Soul Master.
Regarding the 100,000-year Soul Bone in his hand, Qian Daoliu's plan was to give it to Yun Yuan. After all, Yun Yuan's talent was obvious to all, and reaching his level was almost a certainty.
However, this naturally came with conditions.
Qian Daoliu's lips curled up slightly as he made an agreement with Yun Yuan.
"Xiao Yuan, when your Soul Power level breaks through to Soul Saint, this 100,000-year Soul Bone will be my gift to you for that breakthrough."
This was the result of his careful consideration. In his estimation, after Yun Yuan broke through to Soul Saint, there was a high probability he would possess Titled Douluo-level combat power.
At that time, it would be more appropriate to hand this 100,000-year Soul Bone to him.
"Soul Saint? Grandmaster, I will reach it soon."
Gazing at the 100,000-year Soul Bone in Qian Daoliu's hand, Yun Yuan's desire to cultivate became even more abundant.
A 100,000-year Soul Bone as a gift for breaking through to Soul Saint—Qian Daoliu was being far too generous to him.
In this era, unless one was an extremely powerful Titled Douluo, it was absolutely impossible for an ordinary Titled Douluo to possess a 100,000-year Soul Bone.
