In the world of no return, holding the sun and the moon

Chapter 198 Convincing Mr. Bear
In the Douling Palace, Xiao Ming came to Emperor Wanqiu's palace.

Seeing Xiao Ming coming, Di Wanqiu jumped directly onto Xiao Ming and said excitedly, "Xiao Ming, why are you here?"

Xiao Ming felt helpless. He patted Di Wanqiu's butt and pulled her off him.

"Let's go to the Star Dou Great Forest. It's time for you to absorb the eighth soul ring." Xiao Ming said.

Hearing this, Di Wanqiu looked conflicted. Gu Yuena and Xiao Ming had conspired loudly in front of her before, and she also knew that her eighth soul ring was the Bear King.

As a auspicious beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, she was raised by those ferocious beasts since she was a child. She still felt a little guilty about asking Bear King to become her spirit ring.

But Xiao Ming and Gu Yuena had already discussed it, so Di Wanqiu could only ask weakly: "Does Uncle Xiong Jun have to die?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ming fell silent. Does Xiong Jun have to die? To be honest, Xiao Ming didn't feel anything.

During their life in the Star Dou Great Forest, King Bear had some favors for him, but this favor was based on Emperor Tian.

Although Xiong Jun's attitude towards him became better later, Xiao Ming still felt that the relationship between them was not that deep.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming touched Di Wanqiu's head and said, "It's okay if you don't want to absorb the spirit ring of the bear king."

As he spoke, Xiao Ming explained to Di Wanqiu the matter of Xiong Jun and Xiao Hong. If Xiong Jun had not died, Xiao Hong would definitely have gone to the Xingdou Great Forest to ask for an explanation.

Di Wanqiu was a little confused and began to think quickly about the problems of Xiao Hong and Xiong Jun.

After a long while, Di Wanqiu raised his head and said, "Then I'll just absorb it."

Xiao Ming was stunned and looked at Di Wanqiu in surprise, because Di Wanqiu actually refuted herself. She disagreed just now, so why did she agree now?

"Hmph!" Di Wanqiu snorted coldly, somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Ming's gaze, and she explained.

"Uncle Xiong Jun made a big mistake. If you hadn't become a god, Uncle Hong would have been depressed for the rest of his life. Even if he was resurrected, a battle would be unavoidable. If you stood in the middle, it would be difficult for either side to handle the situation."

So that's how it is. Di Wanqiu didn't want to make things difficult for Xiao Ming, so he simply helped Xiao Ming.

"I don't care, as long as you are willing." Xiao Ming said with a smile.

At this moment, the door of the palace was pushed open again, and Brigitte in a green dress walked into the palace.

Looking at the two people still hugging each other, Brigitte was slightly speechless, and then asked: "Are you ready?"

But Xiao Ming was stunned, because he seemed to have not told Brigitte about the matter of Xiong Jun. What if Brigitte disagreed?

Brigitte is different from Di Wanqiu. She has lived in the Star Dou Forest for a long time and has a better relationship with King Bear.

"Um, Brigitte, there is something I want to discuss with you." Xiao Ming said a little embarrassedly.

Hearing this, Brigitte was a little confused. Since when did Xiao Ming need to discuss things with her?

Xiao Ming did not hide it and said directly: "After discussing with Gu Yuena, we decided to let Xiong Jun sacrifice himself to become the eighth soul ring of Emperor Wanqiu."

"Mr. Xiong?" Brigitte was shocked at first, then she calmed down and looked at Di Wanqiu who was silent, and made a decision in her heart.

"Since my husband and the master have discussed it, I naturally have no objection."

"?" Xiao Ming looked confused. He obviously didn't expect Brigitte to be so easy to talk to.

"Alas." Brigitte sighed and explained, "Since you and the Lord have discussed this, it won't be of much use even if I try to stop you."

This was true. The three of them all agreed. Even if Di Tian opposed it, it would be useless. Besides, Di Tian would not go against the will of the Silver Dragon King. Even if the Silver Dragon King asked Di Tian to take action, Di Tian would not even blink.

Xiao Ming said: "Okay, let's go."

After saying that, Xiao Ming tore the space crack and took the two of them out of the Douling Palace.

In the core area of the Xingdou Great Forest, beside the Lake of Life, Gu Yuena sat quietly by the lake alone.

With her long silver hair falling to the ground, Gu Yuena had been waiting for the coming of the God Realm. She told Di Tian everything she needed to say, and now the soul beast clan had to walk their own path.

Thinking that the Golden Dragon King was still imprisoned in the forbidden land of the gods, Gu Yuena felt a little anxious.

As a half-step God King, she will most likely be locked up for the rest of her life. She doesn’t know whether Xiao Ming will come to rescue her after he becomes a God.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuena let out a self-deprecating chuckle. Her relationship with Xiao Ming didn't seem to be that good. How could the other party go against the entire God Realm for her?

As long as Xiao Ming does not tear up the alliance and helps the soul beast clan find a new residence, Gu Yuena will be satisfied.

Xiao Ming has done enough, and the matters concerning souls are enough for humans and soul beasts to achieve peace.

Hunting soul beasts comes with a price, but hunting soul spirits does not require one. Moreover, the Soul Pagoda has recently relaxed its policy, allowing soul masters with low soul power to get a soul spirit for free.

Obtaining a hundred-year soul means that a soul master no longer needs the first two soul rings, which also protects the hundred-year soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest.

As for why they didn't give her a Millennium Soul, Gu Yuena also knew. After all, after the unification of the continent, the financial resources of all empires were merged together, but everyone was not so easy to talk to.

It took Zhang Lexuan a lot of effort to deal with a hundred-year soul, so it was naturally impossible for him to deal with a thousand-year soul.

Suddenly, Gu Yuena felt a fluctuation in the space next to her. She turned around and found that Xiao Ming had brought Di Wanqiu and Biji here.

Seeing that it was Xiao Ming who came, Gu Yuena had some guesses in her mind, but she still held on to some hope and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Although there hasn't been much movement in the God Realm recently, Gu Yuena doesn't dare to gamble. The previous battle could be said to be between the two of them fighting to protect Douluo Continent, but it is hard to explain why they were seen together when the God Realm descended to the mortal world.

"Oh, I'm here to find Di Wanqiu's eighth soul ring." Xiao Ming said.

Hearing this, Gu Yuena felt a little disappointed, but still smiled and said, "It was agreed before, and I also told Xiong Jun, but he didn't agree, so I imprisoned him."

Xiao Ming looked at Gu Yuena in confusion. He didn't expect that this soul beast leader would be so ruthless to his subordinates. He would sacrifice as soon as he said so.

Gu Yuena didn't care about Xiao Ming and said to the three people, "Come with me."

As she spoke, Gu Yuena jumped into the Lake of Life, and Xiao Ming also pulled Biji and Di Wanqiu to follow.

When he arrived at the bottom of the Lake of Life, Xiao Ming discovered the problem, because this small world below was not the place where the Silver Dragon King had been in seclusion before.

"Mr. Xiong is inside, follow me in."

After saying that, Gu Yuena took the initiative to open the small world and led the three of them into it.

"Roar!"

As soon as they entered the small world, a deafening roar was heard. Before anyone could react, a golden light appeared in front of them.

"How dare you!" Gu Yuena sneered, the elemental power emerged in her hands, and she shattered the bear king's claws with one blow.

"Silver Dragon King!" The roar of the Bear King was heard again, and a figure as big as a hill was approaching.

Seeing this, Di Wanqiu hurriedly stood up and shouted, "Uncle Xiong Jun!" But Xiong Jun had gone completely crazy, and when he saw the person he wanted to sacrifice coming, the rage in his heart grew even stronger.

The dark gold claws appeared instantly, and their sharp claws tore through the space.

A thousand-meter-long claw came across the sky, and a golden sun suddenly rose up. A terrifying high temperature burst out, instantly burning the bear's claws.

"Roar!"

The bear king screamed, and his originally dark golden bear claws turned into charcoal at this moment, and a fragrance spread in the air.

"Sorry, I didn't control the temperature well." Xiao Ming said with a smile.

One of his hands turned into charcoal, and Xiong Jun calmed down a little, because Xiao Ming and Gu Yuena were both god-level, and he could never be their opponent.

When Mr. Xiong calmed down and saw Brigitte, he seemed to see hope and spoke immediately.

"I have shed blood for the Star Dou Great Forest. I have made great contributions to protecting the Star Dou Great Forest. If you kill me like this, will other beasts still submit to you?"

Hearing this, Gu Yuena's expression remained unchanged. Whether Xiong Jun lived or died had little to do with her.

To put it nicely, Xiong Jun is her subordinate. To put it bluntly, Xiong Jun is an ambitious soul beast who once wanted to challenge Di Tian to gain a position.

Gu Yuena felt that it was no problem to kill such a traitor. Besides, even Di Tian didn't protest, so why should she care about it?

Brigitte, on the other hand, felt a little reluctant. Although the Bear King didn't have much brains and his cultivation was inferior to hers, he was the second strongest force in the Star Dou Great Forest after all. Wouldn't it be too hasty to sacrifice him like this?

Brigitte whispered to Xiao Ming: "Xiao Ming, how about..."

But before she could say anything, Xiao Ming stopped her, "Don't talk yet."

Brigitte, who originally wanted to speak to Xiong Jun, shut up, but she was somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Ming's domineering attitude.

"You don't have to be resurrected, but you must die now." Xiao Ming said lightly.

Hearing this, Xiong Jun was a little dissatisfied and immediately questioned Xiao Ming: "You and I have a history, but now you have become one of my murderers. Humans' words are indeed not to be trusted."

Xiao Ming is the only human here, but Xiong Jun’s words did not cause any emotional fluctuations among the three people.

Seeing Xiong Jun with a somewhat crazy look on his face, Xiao Ming had to stand up and tell him about Xiao Hong.

After Xiao Ming finished speaking, Xiong Jun was still dissatisfied. He said, "This matter is not my fault. I was irritated at the time. Your uncle Hong just had bad luck."

"Alas." Xiao Ming sighed, wondering why Xiong Jun didn't understand.

"Then if I kill you now, it means that your luck is bad?" Xiao Ming said coldly.

"Hmph! You can come and try." The Bear King waved his remaining bear claw and stared at Xiao Ming with a crazy look.

"I've already told you, you don't have to die. I can keep your soul, and when I find a new place for the soul beast clan to survive, I will resurrect you." Xiao Ming said.

Xiong Jun cannot meet Xiao Hong. Once they meet, Uncle Hong will most likely fight Xiong Jun to the death. The only way is to prevent the two from meeting.

"Why should I believe you, and what about the years I was dead?" Xiong Jun roared.

Xiao Ming's expression remained calm. He walked silently in front of Xiong Jun and explained, "The appearance of the Spirit Pagoda and the appearance of the soul spirit is not enough for you soul beasts to believe it?"

Xiong Jun was silent. He knew what Xiao Ming had done. Because of the emergence of artificial souls, the number of soul beast casualties in the Star Dou Great Forest had decreased recently.

After a long time, Xiong Jun finally nodded and said, "Okay, I believe you, but what about the years I've been dead?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ming breathed a sigh of relief. According to his strength, killing the Bear King was relatively easy, but it would be difficult for Di Wanqiu to absorb the Bear King's soul ring, so he needed the Bear King's cooperation.

"These few years are your punishment. You killed Aunt Qing. Aunt Qing hasn't recovered yet. And you have to maintain your soul body for as long as Aunt Qing has been dead." Xiao Ming said.

Hearing this, Xiong Jun pretended to think for a moment, then asked, "Given our relationship, can we reduce some of the time?"

Xiao Ming waved his hand, then smiled and said, "I am about to become a god now, and what I said is that I will revive you if I find a place for the soul beast to live. Do you think this is a bargain for you?"

Xiong Jun was also brainless. All the questions had been asked, so he stopped resisting.

"Okay! But I have another request." said Mr. Xiong.

Seeing that Xiong Jun agreed, Xiao Ming did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Xiong Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "My soul cannot be placed on you, I want to place it on the King of Ten Thousand Monsters."

Everyone says I'm stupid, but I'm not stupid at all, Xiong Jun thought to himself.

In his opinion, all the ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest have been conquered, and his soul can only feel safe with the King of Ten Thousand Demons.

As for the others, Zi Ji, Chi Wang and Yao Ling are too weak, and it is even a question whether their own souls can recover.

But Biji is Xiao Ming's person, so she is not suitable. Not to mention Di Tian, Gu Yuena can take his life with just one order, so the only choice is the Ten Thousand Demon King.

"I hope the Monster King can save my soul," thought Xiong Jun.

Xiao Ming didn't care. It didn't matter who Bear King chose. As long as Bear King could sacrifice himself, it would be fine.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's get started." Xiao Ming said to Xiong Jun.

Although the deal was done, when it really came to this point, Mr. Xiong was a little hesitant.

After looking at Xiao Ming several times in a row, Xiong Jun still chose to believe Xiao Ming.

"You must revive me."

The originally arrogant Bear King actually begged at this moment. Even Emperor Tian did not submit to him, so this was the only way for him to protect himself in front of Xiao Ming.

"Don't worry, I, Xiao Ming, always keep my word." Xiao Ming said with a smile.

Xiong Jun thought about it for a while, and finally looked at Brigitte expectantly, hoping to get the final guarantee.

After seeing Brigitte nod, Xiong Jun did not hesitate. A dark golden light burst out from Xiong Jun's body, and a powerful soul power impacted this world.

"My claws are the strongest part of my body. Now I only have one hand left, so I will prepare a left metacarpal bone for the auspicious beast. I hope it will be suitable." said the Bear King.

Di Wanqiu didn't say anything, but just looked at Xiong Jun silently, then stretched out his left hand.

The dark golden light illuminated the entire small world. The world that was originally full of silver light completely turned into dark gold, and the sharp claws of the Bear King fell into the hands of Emperor Wanqiu.

A sharp pain immediately came from Di Wanqiu's hand. Before she could scream, Xiao Ming had already grasped her palm.

Above the Lake of Life, a vortex of life composed of the essence of heaven and earth gathered, and countless soul powers flowed into the bottom of the Lake of Life, and finally fell into Di Wanqiu's body.
