Chapter 35 - Ambushed

"Tiger, are you sure it's a fat sheep? Don't make us run for nothing."

The middle-aged man who had been watching Ning Bei leave the town, nicknamed Tiger, returned to the town and found some acquaintances, wanting to rob Ning Bei together.

However, one of the one-eyed men doubted the truth of his information.

"Don't worry, I've been following that kid since he was eating. Do you know how much his clothes are worth?"

The one-eyed man became interested upon hearing this.

"How much?"

"At least several thousand Gold Soul Coins, maybe even more. The tip he gave for the meal was a few Gold Soul Coins, and the carriage he bought was the most luxurious. How could he not have money?"

"Really? Then this is indeed a big deal, much more profitable than robbing those mercenaries. I just don't know how strong the other party is."

Tiger smiled disdainfully.

"One-Eye, when did you become so timid? That kid is only about 10 years old, how strong can he be?"

The one-eyed man's face flushed red upon hearing this.

"I'm just being careful. But since you're so sure, let's do this job."

Saying that, the two called their subordinates and chased after Ning Bei in the direction he had left.

A luxurious carriage was traveling on a dilapidated road. Because this place was too close to the Star Dou Great Forest, there was almost no sign of human habitation. Everywhere was dense vegetation, but the air was extremely fresh.

This was the first time Ning Bei had traveled so far alone. From time to time, he would open the small curtain of the carriage and stick his head out to look at the surrounding scenery.

I guess Father and the two Grandfathers must be going crazy right now. I wonder what their expressions will be when they see the Soul Bones on my bracelet.

Ning Bei thought with a mischievous smile about the scene of their reunion later, and a hint of anticipation flowed through his heart.

Half a day passed quietly. Just as Ning Bei and the coachman finished their dry food and were about to set off again, a rough shout echoed in their ears.

"Hey, kid, we're a bit short on cash lately. How about lending us some money to spend?"

Following the sound, seven or eight figures appeared before Ning Bei.

Leading them were Tiger and One-Eye.

The coachman trembled and retreated behind the carriage when he saw this group of desperadoes.

Ning Bei looked at these people with amusement. Was he being robbed? How novel! He even felt a little excited thinking about it!

He decided to tease these people who didn't know what was good for them.

"Really? Is 10,000 Gold Soul Coins enough?"

When the few people heard Ning Bei's words, greed immediately appeared in their eyes.

"Oh? Do you have that much money? Take it out."

Ning Bei sneered.

"10,000 Gold Soul Coins should be enough for you to buy coffins, right? You're really easy to satisfy! You bunch of scumbags."

The few people were instantly enraged.

"Damn kid, how dare you play tricks on us! You're courting death! Brothers, let's go."

The few people revealed their Spirits one after another. For a moment, colorful Spirit Rings bloomed on the road.

Tiger and One-Eye, who were leading, were both Four Ring Soul Elders, and their Spirits were Black Tiger and Jackal respectively.

The remaining five were all Soul Grandmasters, but most of them only had the 10-year white first Spirit Ring.

"Why are there still white Spirit Rings? How old are these? I've never seen them before."

Ning Bei teased those Soul Grandmasters, making them even more angry.

"Kid, I'll smash your teeth later, let's see how you can still talk so glibly."

Seeing that the other party was about to make a move, Ning Bei stopped teasing and his eyes gradually turned cold.

With a flash of the Pill Tower in his hand, Little Treasure, A Zhu, Chang'e, and Yao Yao immediately appeared before everyone.

Chang'e and Yao Yao were the Emerald Swan and the Demon Eye Magic Tree respectively. As for A Zhu, she was the Man-Faced Demon Spider. He had given names to the others but hadn't named his old partner, the Man-Faced Demon Spider. Ning Bei felt a bit unfair, so he decisively arranged a name for her.

The appearance of the four Soul Beasts immediately blinded the eight people on the opposite side.

"Soul... Soul Beasts?"

"How can there be Soul Beasts?"

"This kid is strange."

Before everyone could react, various Pills appeared in Ning Bei's hand again. Beast Strength Pills, Power Storage Pills, Wind Walker Pills, Qi Enhancing Pills, he stuffed them all into the mouths of the Soul Beasts.

"Go, brothers and sisters, let them know what cruelty is."

Saying that, A Baoand A Zhu directly rushed towards the other party. Yao Yao also rooted herself on the ground, her branches extending into the ground. Chang'e circled above everyone's heads to prevent A Baoand the other beasts from getting injured.

A Baoand A Zhu already had strength comparable to 10,000-year Soul Beasts. After eating various auxiliary combat Pills, their strength became even more terrifying. The few desperadoes immediately started crying and screaming.

"Spare me, I won't dare again."

"Let me go, ah! My biceps are burning like fire."

"Ah! My slender jade hands."

Screams rose and fell. The Demon Eye Magic Tree subjected the few people to inhumane binding play. The already poisonous branches, combined with the highly toxic venom of the Man-Faced Demon Spider, made them feel like they were in heaven and hell. Then, A Baorushed forward, taking one down with each claw, cleaning up the battlefield.

In less than five minutes, eight people lay on the ground, lifeless. The scene was extremely disgusting, leaving Ning Bei with no desire to even clean up the spoils. The few poor devils didn't look like they had any possessions anyway.

He quickly called out to the coachman, who was trembling on the ground, to start the carriage and leave the place.

There were still 2 days of travel to Seven Treasure City. Although the two Titled Douluo, Sword and Bone, had flown him around for only a few hours, when he traveled by himself, he realized the distance was quite far.

In the following days, Ning Bei didn't encounter any more troublesome individuals and successfully arrived at Seven Treasure City.

Looking at the familiar city before him, a smile appeared on Ning Bei's face.

"Your emperor has returned."

After giving the coachman a considerable tip, the other party's face bloomed like a chrysanthemum with a smile. After respectfully thanking him, he left alone. Ning Bei skillfully arrived at the sect entrance, handed the carriage over to the guards to handle, and walked straight in.

Upon arriving at the Council Hall, he found his parents and the two elders, Sword and Bone, were all there, but their expressions were very gloomy. His mother was even wiping away tears on the side, likely still worried about him.

Feeling touched, Ning Bei greeted everyone.

"Father, Mother, and two grandfathers, I'm back."

Hearing the sound, everyone looked towards the entrance in surprise and found it was the familiar figure they knew. They happily rushed towards him.

One must say, a mother is strong. Ning's Mother, worried about Ning Bei's safety, ran faster than a Titled Douluo for a moment, being the first to reach Ning Bei's side. She grabbed Ning Bei's shoulders, examined him carefully, and finding no injuries, hugged Ning Bei tightly.

"Bei Er, you scared Mother to death."

"Sorry, I made everyone worry."

After a round of greetings, Ning Fengzhi and the two Douluo, Sword and Bone, also began to ask their questions.

"Bei Er, who exactly kidnapped you? Why couldn't Old Sword Man and I react?"

Hearing Gu Rong's question, Ning Bei thought for a moment and decided to answer truthfully.

"Father, two grandfathers, the one who captured me was the Soul Beast overlord, the Black Dragon King Di Tian, with a cultivation of 800,000 years."

"Black Dragon King?"

"800,000 years of cultivation?"

"Bei Er, is that true?"

As expected, upon hearing Ning Bei's words, everyone was greatly surprised and expressed their disbelief.

In their minds, a 100,000-year cultivation was already at the peak of Soul Beasts. 800,000 years was a number they couldn't even imagine.

Ning Bei nodded, indicating that he was not lying.
