Chapter 91: Discussion of the Three-Beast Trio, Awakening and Secret Observation.
The clear lake water emitted a dense vitality, with vigorous life force releasing outward from this great lake as its center.
By the lakeside, two figures, one large and one small, were communicating. Their natural aura radiated outward, preventing any nearby Soul Beasts from daring to step even half a pace closer.
The smaller one was a rabbit, its fluffy pinkish-white fur appearing somewhat cute. Its limbs were coordinated, its ears long and playful, and its ruby-like eyes radiated a fatal attraction. The entire rabbit seemed to gather the spiritual elegance of heaven and earth, making it exceptionally lovely—provided, of course, one ignored its two-meter-tall stature.
The larger Soul Beast was a giant ape, standing thirty meters tall. Its limbs were like pillars supporting the heavens, and its dense fur could hardly hide the robust muscles beneath. Its palms were the size of millstones with sharp claws; a simple swipe across the ground left deep marks. Even sitting there motionless, a mountain-like pressure involuntarily radiated from its body.
"Er Ming, you don't need to persuade me anymore. I want to go to the human World, transform into a human, and avenge my mother."
The massive pinkish-white rabbit spoke in human tongue, its voice serious.
The mountain-like giant ape's voice sounded like muffled thunder, yet it held a hint of pleading.
"Sister Xiao Wu, why bother? With the resources of the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Core Zone, it's enough for you to break through the Two Hundred Thousand Year Heavenly Tribulation. By then, that human will have long since died of old age."

These two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts were none other than Xiao Wu and her subordinate Er Ming, who had not yet transformed during the douluo one era.
"No, dying of old age is too easy for her. I must take my revenge personally."
Deep-seated hatred appeared on Xiao Wu's rabbit face, and two red beams shot out from her ruby-like eyes.
"If it really doesn't work, we'll accompany you. The force that human belongs to should be the strongest among humans, but isn't it just two Titled Douluo? Including that woman, that's only three Titled Douluo. We can just charge in and kill her; there definitely won't be any problem."
A massive bull head rose from the Lake of Life, its voice filled with confidence as it spoke.
"Yeah, yeah, Sister Xiao Wu. I sent some of my subordinates to the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest to investigate. That person should be a Titled Douluo from Spirit Hall. Let's just charge straight into Spirit Hall, kill your enemy, and then come back. Wouldn't that work?"
"If you're still unhappy, it seems there's something called the Hall of Worship above Spirit Hall where the bones of past Titled Douluo are buried. We can just overturn that Hall of Worship too."
Xiao Wu blinked her large eyes, somewhat confused: "Why did my rabbit descendants find out that the Douluo Hall enshrines the sacred positions of Titled Douluo?"
"Whether it's the Douluo Hall or the Hall of Worship, we'll just overturn them all."
As Da Ming's voice fell in the water, a fatal sense of crisis flashed by. He suddenly looked up and around, but found nothing.
"Da Ming, what's wrong?"
Xiao Wu asked with some confusion.
"Just now, I felt as if disaster was imminent, as if I were being watched by some extremely terrifying creature."
"Da Ming, did you sleep yourself into a daze? We are the strongest in the Star Dou Great Forest. How could there be an existence stronger than us?"
Xiao Wu's words caused Da Ming to have serious self-doubt. Was I really just dazed from sleep and overthinking?
"Alright, my mind is made up. Da Ming, Er Ming, you don't need to persuade me anymore. As long as I'm careful, I can definitely grow into a Titled Douluo and avenge my mother. Neither of you needs to say anything about going for revenge directly; I will take my revenge myself. Besides, I haven't seen the human World yet, and I want to go explore."
"Alright then, Sister Xiao Wu. You must be careful and remember to come back and see us often."
Titan Giant Ape Er Ming's voice was full of reluctance.
"Don't worry, it's still early. My instinct tells me the best time to transform is in four or five years. I'll still need you to be my Protectors then. As for going out later, it's impossible to encounter a Titled Douluo right at the start. I've cultivated to a hundred thousand years; my luck isn't that bad."
"Anyway, enough talk. While wandering the forest earlier, I found a very cute and handsome rabbit, seemingly from the Lightning Rabbit clan. I'm going to find him and play."
As she finished speaking, Xiao Wu's figure flickered and vanished from the side of the Lake of Life.
Crunch, crunch!
Hard soil and rocks were crushed in the massive ape palm, turning into powder and rustling down from the Titan Giant Ape's hand.
Sky Azure Bull Python Da Ming glanced at his brother and couldn't help but sigh.
"Sigh! Er Ming, look on the bright side. Who told us not to be rabbits? Think about it, with your size, could Xiao Wu handle it?"
"I'm just unwilling. That's Xiao Wu! What right do those rabbits have?"
There was uncontrollable anger in Er Ming's voice, and his eyes were blood-red, revealing intense killing intent.
"Don't think too much. Given our relationship with Xiao Wu, if not for the size issue, she would surely be willing. Ultimately, it's our own problem."
As he spoke, the massive bull head quietly submerged beneath the water.
What the two beasts didn't notice was that among the branches above their heads, three figures were standing.
At the very front was a young girl, appearing to be no more than twelve years old. Her brilliant silver hair cascaded down to her hips, and her amethyst-like eyes were calm yet seemed to hold unfathomably deep wisdom.
Elemental fluctuations rose and fell in her eyes, carrying an air of majesty.
Her skin was as white as snow, and her figure was slender and tall, like green bamboo under the moonlight or the Reincarnation of a celestial spirit. Although young, one could already catch a glimpse of her peerless grace in the future.
Her jade-like face was flawless, like a work of art meticulously carved by the heavens. Devastatingly beautiful or a beauty that brings downfall to nations could not describe even a fraction of her loveliness.
In the girl's arms, she held a "big cat." Its entire body was covered in a layer of golden fur, like leaping flames. Its body resembled a lion's, its snout was slightly long, and its feet stepped on flames, appearing like a Qilin. At the position of its forehead, there was also a vertical pupil of rose gold, within which invisible trajectories of fate flowed.
Standing behind the girl and the beast was a middle-aged man. His hair, black as the endless darkness, cascaded down to his waist. He was burly with sharp eyes, carrying a natural aura of "I alone am supreme." As his golden eyes opened and closed, invisible Dragon might radiated from them. There was a tuft of golden hair at his temple, highlighting his rugged handsomeness.
They had completely observed the conversation of the three Soul Beasts below. Several times, the big cat in the girl's arms had wanted to speak, and the middle-aged man behind her had raised his hand several times, but they were all stopped by the silver-haired girl.
"Lord Sister, why let that rabbit leave? Soft Bones Rabbits are so fragrant; a hundred-thousand-year-old one should be delicious. If she transforms into a human, we won't be able to eat her."
Seeing the female rabbit depart, the big cat in the girl's arms finally couldn't help but speak. Her voice was like a warbler's song, crisp and pleasant, though a clear sense of resentment could be heard.
"Yes, Lord. That mixed-blood python as well—he actually wants to attack the Hall of Worship in the human World. If he really does that, we'll be in big trouble. Why didn't you let me just slap these two pieces of trash to death just now?"
The black-haired middle-aged man behind the girl was clearly also very confused.
The silver-haired girl looked at the two rabbits fighting in the distance, her eyes showing clear repulsion. Her voice was ethereal and fleeting, as if devoid of any emotion.
"My awakening this time was no accident. A few years ago, I felt a surge of divine force from the heavens fall into our Star Dou Great Forest. This sudden divine force was the reason I was startled awake. After my investigation, that divine force is within that little rabbit's spiritual sea."
"To prevent any accidents, I used my mental force to forcibly twist their consciousness, making them believe they are the strongest in the Star Dou Great Forest."
The black-haired man behind her suddenly understood: "No wonder you had us shrink the Core Zone and told us not to wander around lately, Lord. It was to guard against those traitors in the heavens."
"What a pity. A Hundred Thousand Year Soft Bones Rabbit—there's probably only this one left in the entire Star Dou Great Forest."
The golden big cat felt some regret. She suddenly remembered something and asked excitedly: "Oh right, I remember Uncle Bear killed a hundred-thousand-year rabbit before. I wonder if there's any of that rabbit meat left."
As she spoke, she subconsciously wriggled in the silver-haired girl's arms.
The silver-haired girl frowned and, with very practiced movements, stroked the golden "big cat's" neck and belly.
"No, don't, Lord Sister, don't, stop—"
The golden "big cat" clearly felt extremely comfortable and immediately stopped moving around. It was hard to tell if she meant "don't" or "don't stop."
"Auspicious Beast, you should maintain respect for the Lord."
Seeing the Auspicious Beast's presumptuous behavior, the black-haired middle-aged man couldn't help but scold in a deep voice.
"Di, Uncle Di Tian, I... I'm very polite to Lord Sister, aren't I?"
The Auspicious Beast was still lost in the pleasure of being petted and couldn't pull herself away. As for the Silver Dragon, she seemed to have also found the joy of petting a cat; her hand movements showed no sign of stopping.
Di Tian fell into silence. Calling her Lord Sister while calling him Uncle—wasn't his seniority a bit too high? Was that not good?
"Lord Sister, staying in the Core Zone is so boring. Can I go to the outskirts for a walk?"
After the silver-haired girl stopped her hand movements, the golden "big cat" asked breathlessly.
"No. The Lord has said it's best to stay in the Core Zone during this time. It's too dangerous for you to go out alone."
Di Tian objected without hesitation, but the Imperial Auspicious Beast ignored him completely, looking pitifully at the silver-haired girl.
The silver-haired girl remained expressionless. It was unclear if she was too cold or simply airheaded. She thought for a moment, tilted her head, and then looked at the middle-aged man behind her.
"Di Tian, you go back first. I'll be going into a deep sleep in a while. While I'm still awake, it's fine to take the Auspicious Beast out to play."
Seeing his Lord speak like this, Di Tian could only helplessly agree.
"Alright, let's make some disguises, otherwise it'll be too conspicuous."
As the silver-haired girl's mental force surged, the girl and the cat disappeared into the dense forest.
