Upon hearing Qian Renjue's nod, Dugu Bo's reins tightened immediately, and the carriage gradually came to a stop.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Ling Yuan Douluo immediately became alert.
"Sister Ling Yuan, what's that place in the direction behind us?"
"The Soul Hunting Forest?"
Qian Renjue frowned and asked.
"Your Highness, please wait a moment."
Realizing that things were not simple,
Ling Yuan immediately took out a map to check. She
quickly replied:
"Your Highness, there is indeed a place where the Empire keeps soul beasts, four hundred miles northeast of Notting City."
"Good, get out of the carriage immediately."
A cold light flashed in Qian Renjue's eyes.
He quickly picked up Xiao Wu and stood up, striding out of the carriage.
Ling Yuan followed closely behind.
"Your Highness!"
Dugu Bo bowed respectfully.
"Senior Dugu, no need for formalities. Do you remember that carriage from earlier?"
Qian Renjue jumped to the ground, looking at the road they had come from.
The sun had just risen, and a cool breeze carried the air
. "Of course I remember,"
Dugu Bo nodded.
He didn't understand what secrets lay within the carriage driven by an ordinary coachman.
Qian Renjue raised his hand and put away the carriage.
He instructed,
"Sister Lingyuan, Senior Dugu, you two should check the surroundings first."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Lingyuan Douluo didn't hesitate and immediately dashed off in one direction.
Dugu Bo searched in the opposite direction for a moment.
Xiao Wu hugged Qian Renjue's neck,
asking curiously, "Your Highness, is there anything in that carriage?"
"Hmm, there are two people,"
Qian Renjue nodded slightly.
His [Eye of Insight] scanned the surroundings.
If he had only seen the thin, dark-skinned child of about six years old,
he naturally wouldn't have been so decisive.
But he had also seen half of an ugly, zombie-like face.
In just a few breaths,
Lingyuan and Dugu Bo returned one after the other.
"Your Highness, there's nothing suspicious around."
"Hmm."
Qian Renjue nodded slightly.
Looking towards the Soul Hunting Forest, he instructed,
"Sister Lingyuan, let's change course for now and follow that carriage to the Soul Hunting Forest!"
Lingyuan Douluo hesitated for a moment, then immediately agreed.
"Yes, Your Highness."
"Uh..."
A sudden, powerful elasticity struck, carrying a soft fragrance, causing Qian Renjue to groan.
His waist tightened immediately.
Qian Renjue looked at Lingyuan Douluo, who was holding him, and asked in confusion,
"Sister Lingyuan, what are you doing?"
"Your Highness, I'm helping you keep up, so you don't fall behind."
Lingyuan Douluo's face was slightly flushed.
She hugged Qian Renjue tightly, her body incredibly elastic.
Combined with Xiao Wu, whom Qian Renjue was holding, they looked like a family of three
. Qian Renjue's expression changed slightly.
Somewhat distressed, she said, "Sister Lingyuan, I can walk by myself."
"Ah~!"
Xiao Wu cried out, seeing Qian Renjue about to use herself to shield her from the ditch, she hurriedly stopped him.
"Your Highness, don't shove Xiao Wu in there, she'll suffocate."
"..."
Dugu Bo stood to the side.
He didn't know whether to look or not,
his eyes flickering as he looked at the nine-section jade on her shoulder.
He immediately took out his Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch.
...
The carriage bumped along.
The novelty wore off, and the child who had been peeking out from behind the curtains from time to time quieted down.
His voice echoed in the carriage.
"Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon, let's call it Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon."
Tang San, dressed in his school uniform, smiled.
This name was also a memory of his previous life.
"It's a very nice name, just a bit long."
A stiff face showed no expression, he just nodded in approval.
He was wearing a dashing outfit, but it looked very out of place.
"Teacher, thank you."
Tang San's face was respectful.
He played with the belt inlaid with twenty-four jade stones, known as a storage soul tool.
He had originally wondered if
his teacher buying so many things, including a large amount of white radishes, would delay the Soul Hunting.
Now it seemed his teacher had come prepared.
"Hmm."
Yu Xiaogang nodded and explained,
"Using it is very simple. Just inject your soul power into that jade stone, and you can feel the existence of its space."
The master and disciple chatted amiably inside the carriage.
They were completely unaware that two afterimages were following behind their carriage
...
Four hundred miles was not a long distance, but it wasn't short either.
It wasn't until noon the next day that the carriage arrived at their destination—
the Soul Hunting Forest.
The carriage and the two figures behind it stopped one after the other.
Dugu Bo held the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch, and two streaks of light shot out.
As soon as they appeared,
Qian Renjue summoned the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, enveloping them and making them invisible.
His purple eyes stared at the two people who had just gotten off the carriage.
"Your Highness."
Ling Yuan gently took Xiao Wu from Qian Renjue's arms and held her own.
Then, she silently followed Qian Renjue's gaze.
A forest.
In Tang San's memory, it was a secluded and tranquil place, with fresh air and few people.
But outside this Soul Hunting Forest, it resembled a market.
Large houses, or rather shops, were built, and various shouts rose and fell.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but look around.
Dugu Bo asked, puzzled, "Your Highness, should we follow them?"
"Yes, quietly,"
Qian Renjue nodded.
He activated the Vast Ocean Universe Cover and followed closely behind with several others.
Dugu Bo was still confused; he couldn't see anything special about the two people
. The Soul Hunting Forest was guarded by imperial soldiers,
but it was jointly owned by the Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire.
To enter, one needed a Spirit Hall warrant, and obtaining a warrant
required the joint guarantee of at least three nobles.
There was also a Spirit Hall-exclusive Soul Hunting Forest near Spirit City.
Qian Renjue had been there before.
This was his first time visiting the Soul Hunting Forest, created by the Heaven Dou Empire. He remained
noncommittal.
Its scale and the quality of the soul beasts within were undoubtedly inferior.
He followed Tang San and his disciples through the steel fence
and into the forest .
All the noise had vanished, and the air became incredibly fresh.
Qian Renjue was very close to them,
close enough to clearly hear Yu Xiaogang, who considered himself a wise man, instructing Tang San.
"Little San, we need to prepare to go deeper. From now on, don't leave my side for even a moment."
"Yes, teacher."
Yu Xiaogang's previously somewhat dejected eyes suddenly brightened.
He clasped his hands together in front of his chest, then quickly separated them downwards.
"Come out, Luo Sanpao."
*Poof!
* A pale purple soul power separated from his palms.
Two halos rose beneath Yu Xiaogang's feet
, swirling around him. The halos were yellow, clearly hundred-year soul rings.
Now, a creature appeared before him.
"Pfft, Your Highness, that guy's martial soul is so ugly!"
"It's neither a pig nor a dog."
"Is this what they mean by 'worse than a pig or a dog' in books?"
Xiao Wu was stuck in the ditch.
Looking at the scene before her, she couldn't help but pat the balloons beside her.
Qian Renjue chuckled.
He nodded.
"If you really want to interpret it that way, that's not entirely wrong."
Ling
Yuan Douluo remained expressionless, slightly blushing, after all, she was just a little girl.
She also agreed with what Xiao Wu said about
the creature that guy summoned. It looked like a dog, but its size was like a pig.
It was over 1.5 meters long, and its waist was probably about the same.
It had light purple fur all over its body.
Two large ears drooped down, and deep blue, clear, yet foolish eyes. Four short, thick legs, and a bulge on its head, the nature of which was unknown.
Dugu Bo, however, squinted and
recognized the middle-aged man in front of him, who looked weathered, decadent, and arrogant.
He glanced at Qian Renjue and
didn't dare to say anything more.
Have a nice day, everyone!
