Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor

My life is now in their hands...

Chapter 76 Super Power: Go, Wisdom!

Although Brigitte was indeed very beautiful, so beautiful that it was hard to look away, Ye Qing still looked away from her for the sake of his own life.

After all, he didn't have the exaggerated, arrogant demeanor of other melodramatic novel protagonists, whose eyes were filled with admiration but not lewdness. His gaze towards Brigitte was full of malice.

Looking at someone with such rude eyes, you'd get your eyes gouged out if you weren't strangled...

"You actually know me?" To Ye Qing's surprise, Bi Ji didn't seem to care about his gaze at all. Instead, she was very curious about the fact that he knew her.

As a super strong person, she was perfectly capable of noticing his gaze, especially since he hadn't even tried to hide it.

This left Ye Qing completely baffled: "You are a super strong person ranked fourth on the list of ferocious beasts, and your illustrious name is widely known throughout the Douluo Continent. Isn't it normal for me to know you?"

Brigitte gave Ye Qing a deep look and didn't dwell on the topic any further.

She didn't believe a word Ye Qing said.

She hadn't revealed any aura and had her back to him, but when she was treating him, how could Bi Ji not notice the visible terror on his face? Shouldn't a normal Soul Master check who was treating him?

But his sense of terror and his decisiveness in choosing to run away without hesitation made Brigitte realize that this person really knew her.

He not only knew himself, but also the auspicious beast, and even guessed that seeing the auspicious beast would lead to him being hunted down by the Star Dou Great Forest, which is why he remained vigilant at all times.

A person who defies fate and escapes its trajectory...

Brigitte now understands the true value of the phrase "the one who defies fate." He is so mysterious that it's outrageous, so mysterious that it compels people to explore and unveil his secrets.

But Brigitte also understood her duties and tasks. After placing Ye Qing on the ground, she continued to release her soul power to help him heal the side effects caused by the physical strain.

Then Ye Qing was even more confused, completely bewildered.

"Something seems off!" Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat. His super power told him that power was no longer effective because the other party was more powerful than him. So, at this moment, he should activate his super intelligence!

Ye Qing began a brainstorming session.

Just like what he said to Brigitte at the beginning, if it was just because he saw the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, there was absolutely no need for Brigitte to personally deal with him.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion is no secret. Even Dongxi, the birthplace of Xuanzi, knows about it and knows that Huo Yuhao can receive the power of attribute attraction by touching his forehead with it. This proves that the news of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion has been spread before.

I only glanced at him, and didn't even make contact before leaving. The time we spent together was less than a second. There was absolutely no need for Bi Ji, an absolute high-ranking member of the Star Dou Great Forest, to come looking for me.

Moreover, if it were a matter of killing someone, wouldn't either Di Tian or the King of Ten Thousand Demons be more suitable than Bi Ji?

'I meant no harm.'

Ye Qing couldn't help but recall what Bi Ji had just said.

Then Ye Qing's eyelids trembled involuntarily. Bi Ji said such things, treated him in a friendly manner, and even ignored his offensive gaze. Did this mean that there was something about him that the Star Dou Great Forest had its eye on?

First, let's rule out the martial spirit. I've never fully revealed the power of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Moreover, my Dark Demon Evil God Tiger martial spirit has been split into two parts due to my body's limitations.

Even the real Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is probably not a threat to Di Tian, ​​let alone the incomplete and flawed version of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which is just a human's martial soul.

Talent is out of the question. There are plenty of talented humans out there. While reaching level 40 at this age might be considered exceptionally brilliant, such talent is nothing until it matures.

It's even more impossible that he has a background. There are plenty of students at Shrek Academy, and he doesn't have anything that represents Shrek Academy. He's using a different identity, and Shrek Academy doesn't have the influence to make Brigitte personally intervene.

That only leaves...

Own origins.

Brigitte lowered her eyelids slightly, her bright eyes reflecting Ye Qing's ever-changing expression, and her curiosity about him intensified.

“It seems you’re already guessing why I came to find you,” Brigitte said gently.

Brigitte's voice also interrupted Ye Qing's thoughts. He nodded, his tone somewhat solemn: "I can probably guess."

There was nothing about him that would attract the attention of the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest. The only abnormal thing was his origin, because he was not from this world at all and should not have been here.

What's most impressive about the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is precisely its chaotic and unpredictable power of fate.

destiny……

To be honest, before this, Ye Qing had always looked down on the so-called power of destiny in Douluo Continent. After all, the world's strength was so small, and the power system was almost collapsing into pieces.

Take himself as an example. He is a Soul Master who doesn't even have a fourth Soul Ring. He was able to walk away right under the noses of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and the Crimson King, whose strength is comparable to that of a Titled Soul Master. If this were in the neighboring Doupo, he would probably be a Great Dou Master who would just walk away in front of a Dou Zun.

Even if it weren't a Dou Zun but a Dou Zong or even a Dou Huang, such a thing would be completely impossible.

But Ye Qing did it.

Instead of using special tools or secret techniques, he used his own abilities.

How strong can the power of fate in this world be? In the original work, it is most often shown to amplify Huo Yuhao's mental attack or make someone's luck worse, but nothing else.

If it exists but isn't written down, then it doesn't exist.

How could Ye Qing possibly take such expressiveness seriously?

There's absolutely no other way; I've lost all sense of shame.

Now, the only explanation is that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's Eye of Fate truly sensed that it was not the person destined for it, but someone who did not conform to the trajectory of fate (plot setting).

If that's the case, then it's normal for Brigitte to appear.

To escape fate, let alone Biji, even Di Tian himself couldn't do it, and even Gu Yuena and the gods couldn't do it.

Everyone else was blowing bubbles in the fish tank, but you not only jumped out of the tank, you even flew around in the sky! Isn't that cheating?

But Ye Qing didn't intend to say it outright. He planned to try to get some information out of her first. He figured that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion could at most see that he was abnormal. If she could tell that he was a transmigrator, Ye Qing would eat Bi Ji right then and there.

In situations like these, having an advantage in the plot gives you more control.

P.S.: This is a transitional chapter; the chlorophyll is mostly water, so please excuse the privacy, dear readers! But these chapters are still very necessary, as they involve the protagonist's subsequent cooperation with the Star Dou Great Forest.

Chapter 77 Three 100,000-Year Soul Beasts Given Away for Free

"I can't think of any other reason why you would come to me personally, except that you value a certain ability of mine that is enough to help your entire Star Dou Great Forest." Ye Qing struggled lightly and fell from the air.

After confirming that he wouldn't run away, Brigitte loosened her grip on him. Hanging in the air all the time was affecting her image, so it was better to sit down and talk things over.

"So please speak frankly, is there anything I can help you with?" Ye Qing smiled at Bi Ji, but whether he would actually help was another matter entirely.

As long as I am useful to them, I will not be in any danger.

Huo Yuhao's experience has proven that the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest do not kill people indiscriminately; they can also communicate and cooperate.

Compared to the old guys at Shrek Academy, Ye Qing felt that the straightforward boys from Star Dou Great Forest were more trustworthy. The reason is obvious to those who know.

Looking at Ye Qing's composed demeanor, Bi Ji sighed softly: "You humans are truly blessed. Humans are born with wisdom that we soul beasts need ten thousand years of cultivation to even begin to possess, and a hundred thousand years to barely rival."

“Indeed, our Star Dou Great Forest does have a need of you, and only you can help with this, so you don’t need to worry about us harming you.”

Who reveals their hand right at the start of negotiations? These spirit beasts are truly ferocious!

Isn't this just giving Ye Qing the right to demand exorbitant prices?

Honestly, Ye Qing felt that it shouldn't be Bi Ji who talked to him, but rather the Demon King who would outwit him. In the entire Star Dou Great Forest, the Demon King was probably the only one with enough experience.

Compared to those old guys from Shrek Academy, these ferocious beasts are practically innocent college students.

No wonder these ferocious beasts wiped out the entire Star Dou Great Forest after the Spirit Pagoda was created. With their intelligence and cunning, how can they compete with the Soul Masters of Douluo Continent?

However, this also gave Ye Qing a basis for trusting them, because for these ferocious beasts who do not or disdain to play tricks, whatever they say is what they mean. They do not play the disgusting tricks of saying one thing to your face and another behind your back, and the probability of them betraying you is almost non-existent.

We need to be cautious, but we also need to trust each other.

"Is it because of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion? I've heard that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is born with a peculiar power of destiny, but what future does its power of destiny foresee?" Ye Qing began to probe for information.

Biji nodded: "That's right. The auspicious beast saw some predetermined trajectories of fate, but we cannot accept these trajectories. In the auspicious beast's prediction, you are the only one who can manipulate fate and change the future. This is what our Star Dou Great Forest asks of you."

"Of course, changing your fate is very risky. Our Star Dou Great Forest will not let you exert your efforts for nothing. We are willing to provide you with three spirit rings that are no more than 110,000 years old."

After listening to Bi Ji's words, Ye Qing blinked, his eyes filled with thought. Bi Ji did not disturb Ye Qing's thoughts, but waited patiently.

'Under 110,000 years old, which means they'll provide three 100,000-year-old soul beasts that won't survive their first Heavenly Tribulation?'

Anyway, they'd die if they couldn't overcome it, so following the one who defied fate might give them a chance to become gods and live forever. I believe that as long as Di Tian explains things clearly to those 100,000-year-old soul beasts, those 100,000-year-old soul beasts threatened by the heavenly tribulation would be happy to become Ye Qing's soul rings.

This is... a great thing!

As for manipulating fate and changing its trajectory, Ye Qing understood what it meant immediately.

He couldn't help but marvel at how the Eye of Fate wasn't entirely useless. It could vaguely see his future fate through him, a transmigrator outside of destiny. Although Bi Ji didn't say it explicitly, it was most likely that she wanted him to protect the auspicious beast.

Is it difficult?

It's not actually that difficult.

Without the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade, and if he were to steal Ilex's life force, Huo Yuhao wouldn't even have the Eye of Life. With his own brilliant example before him, even if Huo Yuhao were to regain the Ice Emperor Martial Soul, he wouldn't receive the same level of attention from Mu En as in the original story.

As long as I exist, I will continue to manipulate the threads of fate, pushing the future forward in unpredictable directions, without even needing to actively do so.

This is equivalent to Biji giving herself three 100,000-year-old soul beasts for free.

Tang San only needed to keep a close eye on Huo Yuhao and protect the Three-Eyed Golden Lion at crucial moments. As long as they were prevented from performing attribute transfer, Tang San would have no way to take the opportunity to stuff Tang Wutong's hero fragment into the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's body.

This couldn't be easier.

This seemingly insignificant matter could be exchanged for three 100,000-year soul rings and three 100,000-year soul bones. This kind of transaction was like picking up money from the ground—risk-free and highly profitable!
