After handling all matters concerning his fourth spirit ring, Mo Yuan prepared to pack up and head to another part of the Star Dou Great Forest.
As a time traveler who had read the original novel, Mo Yuan was naturally familiar with the great opportunities described in the book. So, two years ago, he had traveled alone to the capital of the Xing Luo Empire and gathered information near the White Tiger Duke's residence.
It was around that time that Mo Yuan learned that Huo Yuhao's mother, Huo Yun'er, had recently passed away, which implied that Huo Yuhao was the same age as him.
Now that he was almost twelve, and Shrek Academy was opening its new round of enrollment, it was time for him to enter the Star Dou Great Forest and pursue opportunities.
Mo Yuan also planned to seize this opportunity and enroll at Shrek Academy. After all, while the teaching wasn't great, the resources were plentiful!
With his disguised true spirit, the golden pupils, his terrifying talent, and his clean background as an orphan from the Heavenly Soul Empire, wouldn't the Shrek people treat him like a treasure?
As for needing a City Lord-level letter of introduction, that was even simpler. No one would refuse a favor from a genius.
But just as Mo Yuan was about to leave, he seemed to notice something, and his steps paused.
Someone's coming!
Sensing someone rapidly approaching from the dense forest in the distance, Mo Yuan paused for a moment before moving on. His brilliant golden eyes lit up, and a simple, yet profound dragon script uttered,
"Dark wind, become my eyes."
"Word Spirit: Kama Weasel!"
The domain was fully activated!
Countless Kama Weasels mingled in the wind, rapidly spreading out from Mo Yuan's center. Like scouts, they brought Mo Yuan a vision of what the eye couldn't miss.
Insects crawling across the soil, birds preening their feathers in the forest, spirit beasts gnawing on the flesh of their prey...
and... dozens of spirit masters swiftly moving through the forest three hundred meters east, with two humans vaguely surrounded by these spirit masters in the center.
Were those two going to be surrounded and killed?
Based on the distribution of the heartbeats, Mo Yuan conjured a picture in his mind: two humans slowly moving through the forest. Unseen from all around them, dozens of spirit masters quietly followed, always within three hundred meters of them.
Surrounded? No, that's not right. They didn't look like enemies, more like guards, secretly protecting us. And in just a moment, they were already on the verge of reaching me... Mo Yuan slowly opened his eyes, his golden pupils extinguished, and the sickle-weasel returned in the wind.
His gaze quietly scanned the darkness surrounding the dense forest, without any unnecessary movement.
Mo Yuan was well aware of the speed at which these dozens of people moved. It's no exaggeration to say that if they weren't all Agility-type spirit masters, then their realms were likely above Soul King.
Otherwise, such rapid speed would be impossible.
So, what were the identities of the two people who could command the silent protection of dozens of Soul Kings?
Were they the heirs of a major sect?
Mo Yuan didn't speculate further, because the two were less than thirty meters away, and their identities would soon be revealed.
Thirty meters in front of him, the dense bushes began to sway, and the next second, two figures emerged from them.
One was a girl with crimson hair and eyes as red as flames. Her skin was fair and her figure was voluptuous. The moment she saw Mo Yuan, her eyes suddenly turned icy cold.
The other was also a girl, but both her beauty and temperament surpassed the red-haired girl. Her long platinum hair flowed to her waist, and her eyes were as clear and blue as the ocean. Her features were delicate and her figure was slender. Her skin was as white as snow, and her demeanor was as noble as a princess.
Unlike the red-haired girl, who had a cold and wary look when she saw Mo Yuan, the white-haired girl's beautiful blue eyes dilated slightly when she saw Mo Yuan, the same reaction that almost all women have when they see him.
It was a kind of surprise at seeing something beautiful.
It was no wonder the white-haired girl looked like that. After all, there was hardly any ugly mixed-blood person; every one of them was stunningly beautiful.
Even Lu Mingfei was known as the "God's Favored Sakura" in the Takama-ga-hara host bar in Japan.
Furthermore, the dragon blood in Mo Yuan's veins came directly from the Black King Nidhoggr, and his handsomeness was perhaps rivaled only by Teacher Xiami.
However, when the red-haired girl saw the white-blonde girl's expression, a hint of sadness first crossed her eyes, and then her gaze towards Mo Yuan grew even colder.
"Who are you?" the red-haired girl pointed at Mo Yuan and demanded in a stern tone.
Despite the red-haired girl's hostile tone, Mo Yuan remained unmoved. Based on the dozens of guards who had subtly surrounded him, as well as the two girls' appearances and demeanor, he could already guess some information.
Her status must be quite high.
Otherwise, if someone else had dared to speak so harshly to him right away, Mo Yuan would have already punished her with a volley of his own.
A gentle smile, completely out of character for his usual self, appeared on Mo Yuan's face. His originally cold demeanor suddenly changed, becoming extremely kind. No matter how one looked at it, it had nothing to do with the brutality he displayed when he had previously slain the dragon-horned hunting lizard.
"My name is Mo Yuan. I just finished hunting a soul beast and absorbing its spirit rings here. I was about to leave when you showed up."
"Are you saying that the young master and I have disturbed you?!" the red-haired girl demanded.
"Wu Feng!" The blonde girl, having regained her composure, immediately called out to the red-haired girl, pulling her behind her. Then, with a smile on her face, she looked at Mo Yuan.
"Excuse me for suddenly meeting a stranger in this Great Star Dou Forest. Wu Feng was just worried about my safety, and I hope you don't mind."
"Young Master, you..." Wu Feng's face suddenly changed, her disappointment evident when she saw Ning Tian smiling at Mo Yuan. She tried to persuade Ning Tian to leave immediately, but Ning Tian stopped her with a look.
"It's okay. After all, the Great Star Dou Forest is fraught with danger. It's understandable that I'm worried about my Young Master's safety."
Hearing Wu Feng and Young Master, Mo Yuan immediately understood their identities.
Ning Tian, the Young Master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and her little lapdog, Wu Feng.
Therefore, Mo Yuan subtly emphasized the word "subordinate" and gave Wu Feng a sizing glance, the meaning of which was self-evident.
While he couldn't physically punish them, sometimes verbal attacks could be more effective.
As expected, Wu Feng flew into a rage upon hearing this, but just as she was about to retaliate, Ning Tian silenced her once again. This time, Wu Feng, completely as pale as a frost-bitten eggplant, stood silently behind Ning Tian, her eyes blazing with rage as she gazed at Mo Yuan.
"My name is Ning Tian, and this is my sister, Wu Feng. We're from the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect," Ning Tian introduced herself, then took a few steps forward, arriving not far from Mo Yuan.
"Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?" Mo Yuan feigned appropriate surprise, but his heart remained unmoved.
Seeing Mo Yuan's expression, Ning Tian nodded silently, then averted her gaze from his eerily handsome face to the corpse of the Dragon-Horned Lizard.
"Is this a dragon-horned hunting lizard? Or a cultivation base of about twelve thousand years? Mo Yuan, are you already a Soul King?"
Ning Tian saw the corpse of the dragon-horned hunting lizard clearly and determined its age based on its size and other characteristics.
When she learned that this dragon-horned hunting lizard had a cultivation base of twelve thousand years, she couldn't help but be shocked. At the same time, an idea suddenly popped up in her mind.
As the young master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Tian's martial soul is also the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Then according to ancient teachings, her future partner must be a strong attack-type combat soul master. There is no exception to this except for the ancestor Ning Rongrong.
And because the martial soul is a support-type, the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has always worked hard to attract talented soul masters to join the sect.
Money is a big deal . , treasures, even people can be won over.
So Ning Tian was taught by her mother since she was a child that she can use all her advantages to win over young talents. Of course, there is a bottom line. It
still sounds very ruthless, but there is no way, this is how the auxiliary spirit sect works.
The smart Ning Tian knows all this, and knows that this is the foundation of the sect, so she did not resist.
Therefore, this is why she would rather let Wu Feng suffer injustice and contact Mo Yuan after seeing Mo Yuan.
Part of the reason is because of Mo Yuan's appearance, but the real condition that determines whether she will continue to contact Mo Yuan is still strength and talent.
If Mo Yuan is not talented, Ning Tian will definitely turn around and leave.
