"No, I dare not."
"If you don't dare, then it still exists?"
Hearing Oscar's words, the old man's smile grew even more disdainful:
"The little kid is young, but not very open-minded."
"Leaving aside the fact that this beast was injured by me, even if I wanted to seize it by trickery or force today, what could you do about it?"
"I……"
"Since this snake was injured by you, senior, it should naturally belong to you."
Seeing that Oscar was being pressed by the old man until he had nothing left to say, Zhao Wuji finally spoke up:
“Even if you hadn’t said anything, I would have returned it to you. I was just a little kid being naughty. Please forgive me, Senior Dragon Lord.”
Although he was facing a Soul Master, Zhao Wuji remained neither humble nor arrogant:
He had already made up his mind that if the Dragon Lord really wanted to attack him, he would immediately ask Du Cheng for help.
It's a little embarrassing, but at least my life isn't in danger!
"Heh~"
"You junior do have some manners."
Unsure of Zhao Wuji's thoughts, and seeing his attitude, Long Gong Meng Shu couldn't help but show a hint of appreciation:
"For your sake, I will let this matter go today."
Long Gong was not surprised that Zhao Wuji could recognize his identity:
There are only a handful of powerful individuals in the world of Soul Masters, and each of them has their own unique characteristics.
Since the couple appeared at the same time, if Zhao Wuji still couldn't recognize them, then he wouldn't need to stay in the world of Soul Masters.
"Thank you, senior!"
Upon hearing Long Gong's words, Zhao Wuji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:
Great, we've saved face!
"I suppose the senior was also trying to obtain a soul ring for his granddaughter."
Zhao Wuji glanced at the girl beside the Dragon Lord and spoke in a fawning manner:
"Why don't we let your granddaughter hunt the crested serpent here? I can also protect her."
"That's not bad."
After exchanging a glance, the Dragon and Snake quickly agreed to Zhao Wuji's proposal.
The Star Dou Forest is inherently fraught with danger. If possible, they would definitely prefer to take the soul beast to a safe place before letting their granddaughter absorb it.
But the snake didn't even try to escape when it saw the couple, clearly it was on its last legs. If it died on the way, it would be a complete waste of a good soul ring.
In this situation, it is of course best to absorb the spirit ring on the spot.
However, having an extra protector would certainly be excellent.
He nudged the girl beside him before speaking:
"Ranyi, it's up to you now."
"Ah."
Nodding, Meng Yiran, with her short hair, walked up to the Wind-Tailed Crested Serpent, which was barely clinging to life.
'Pfft~'
The snake-headed cane struck the head of the Wind-Tailed Crested Serpent, and as its head shattered, a purple spirit ring appeared.
"Grandpa and Grandma, don't worry, I'm sure I'll succeed."
Turning back to give the Dragon God and Snake Goddess a big smile, Meng Yiran then began to sit cross-legged and absorb the soul ring in front of her.
"Seniors, absorbing a soul ring will likely take quite some time."
Upon seeing Meng Yiran begin her description, Zhao Wuji gave the Dragon God and Snake Goddess a big smile:
"Why don't you two sit down and rest for a bit? I'll take care of the guard duty."
"If that's the case, then it's not entirely impossible..."
Upon hearing Zhao Wuji's words, Long Gong was somewhat tempted.
Although the Wind-Tailed Crested Serpent is of average strength, it is extremely fast at escaping.
They spent a lot of effort to catch up with this guy.
Taking a short break would be a good suggestion.
Long Gong was not overly wary of Zhao Wuji.
Unless this guy wants all the little kids in the room to be killed, he certainly wouldn't make such a stupid decision.
However, just as Long Gong was about to agree to Zhao Wuji's proposal, his expression suddenly changed:
"not good!"
"Senior, how..."
Seeing the change in Long Gong's expression, Zhao Wuji was taken aback.
However, he stopped halfway through his sentence:
The reason is simple: he already knew what had happened.
"Titan ape!"
As the colossal figure, seemingly as large as a mountain, swept away countless trees from afar and approached the crowd, Zhao Wuji felt his throat instantly become extremely dry.
"How did it get here?"
"escape!"
The Titan Giant Ape is a dominant force in any Soul Beast Forest!
The appearance of this forest king, who should live in the core of the Star Dou Forest, left Zhao Wuji with only this one option.
"That's too late."
Upon hearing Zhao Wuji's words, Meng Shu solemnly raised his dragon-headed cane:
"It's too fast, we can't escape."
Although the Titan Ape's movements appear slow, its sheer size makes it an inescapable presence for anyone.
There's one more thing that Dragon Lord didn't say:
Meng is still absorbing soul rings; there's absolutely no way he would abandon his granddaughter and run away.
"Let's hold it off together and let the little ones escape!"
Meng Shu glanced at Zhao Wuji and made his choice:
In exchange for helping Zhao Wuji's students gain a chance to escape, he would allow them to fight alongside him.
"Done!"
As a veteran powerhouse, Zhao Wuji was certainly not a fool.
Aside from the initial moment of panic, he quickly recovered.
"Little ones!"
Zhao Wuji glanced at Tang San and the others, then his body swelled up, instantly transforming into a giant bear.
"I'm going to fight to the death, you guys can run away."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Wuji charged directly towards the Titan Ape that had already reached him.
In this critical moment, even if he wanted to say a few more words, it was too late.
"Old woman, let's go!"
Seeing Zhao Wuji take action, the Dragon God and Snake Goddess did not hesitate:
Zhao Wuji alone has no chance of stopping a king of the forest like the Titan Giant Ape.
"escape!"
Compared to Zhao Wuji and his group, Tang San and his group made the most accurate choice in an instant:
Rather than becoming a burden by staying here, escaping is the best thing they should do.
Of course, whether their primary motivation was survival is something only they themselves know.
Faced with the three attackers charging towards him, a hint of displeasure flashed in the Titan Ape's eyes, which had been filled with excitement.
'Roar~'
Chapter 87 Erming is a bit silly!
With a roar, the Titan Ape swung its claws out fiercely:
