Douluo: Reborn as a Dragon, I am the Lord of Soul Beasts
Chapter 15: Wandering girl, imperial prince?
Chapter 15: Wandering girl, imperial prince?
The Far North is vast and boundless. After leaving the Ice Emperor, Ying Qian spent another half a year in the core area of the Far North, and finally visited all of the core areas of the Far North, but still could not find the Snow Emperor. In the past six months, Ying Qian had dug into snow caves a lot in order to find the Snow Emperor. He even fought with a Titan Snow Demon King for this, which was also a way to vent his anger at the Ice Emperor.
"If I had known earlier, I should have asked Bing Di. Maybe she would know where Xue Di was hiding," Ying Qian said in annoyance. However, now that things have come to this, Bing Di should have started to retreat and absorb the energy of the ice crystal core. It is not so easy to meet Bing Di again.
"Forget it, forget it, let's leave here! Calculating the time, it's almost time to go to the Sun and Moon Empire." Ying Qian murmured to himself.
In the far north of the Xingdou Great Forest, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm felt that the beasts guarding him seemed to have left the core area. The long-planned escape plan was finally realized.
The originally white jade-colored body of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm began to emit golden light. This golden light continued to spread, like a sacred light, dyeing the surrounding space with a layer of warm color.
As the golden light spread, the aura of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also changed. From the aura emanating from its body, one could sense a solemn and mysterious power, as if the laws between heaven and earth were condensed at this moment. Its body actually condensed into a tenth golden ring. In the golden light, the figure of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm gradually became blurred, and the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was constantly struggling at this moment, and its original body was actually separated from its golden appearance at this moment.
With the help of the tenth molt, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm managed to escape from Emperor Tian's restriction. Tianmeng took a look at his molt and thought, "God has a good eye, allowing me to break through the million-year restriction at this time. When I escape, I will definitely come back to seek revenge on these beasts."
With this thought in mind, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm dug up the soil underground and dived deep into it.
On the other hand, Ying Qian left the Far North and flew all the way to the Sun and Moon Continent. After flying for dozens of days, Ying Qian finally saw the human city. When it was far away, Ying Qian put away his dragon wings. After entering the human territory, Ying Qian could not fly freely, so the rest of the journey to Mingdu, Ying Qian could only walk.
After entering the city, there was a constant stream of pedestrians in the city. Ying Qian had not expected that a small border town in the Sun Moon Empire would have such a flow of people. He leisurely blended into the bustling flow of people and walked slowly along the main street.
The bustling scene of the city made Ying Qian feel familiar. He did not rush to go on his way, but strolled leisurely on the street. The pedestrians coming and going, the various shops, the bustling market scene, all of these were things he had never seen in his thousands of years of soul beast life in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Ying Qian quietly felt everything around him. The constant hawking of vendors made him feel a long-lost feeling. In the forest, he was used to loneliness and silence, but now, among the crowd, he felt an inexplicable familiarity.
Ying Qian first found a shop to exchange the soul beast furs he had accumulated over thousands of years for soul coins. In the world of soul beasts, strength is the right to speak. But in the human world, money is the most important thing.
The first step for Ying Qian to get the money was to find a snack street. He was tired of the days of eating raw meat and drinking blood. Although those foods could fill his stomach, he knew in his heart that real food needed to be cooked through a delicate process to be enjoyed.
Ying Qian walked along the snack street, attracted by all kinds of aromas, and his taste buds seemed to cheer. Finally, he chose a simple-looking stall, from which came bursts of cooking sounds and aromas.
He sat down and ordered a local specialty and a bowl of noodles that the boss highly recommended. Although these foods were not considered luxurious in the entire empire, they were an incomparable enjoyment for Ying Qian.
When the food was served, Ying Qian couldn't help but close his eyes and take a deep breath. This smoky taste was completely different from the food he had experienced in the forest, but it was equally delicious. Just as Ying Qian was about to start eating, he found himself being stared at by several pairs of eyes.
Following the feeling, they found a group of ragged children, who looked no older than eight or nine. They stared at the food in Ying Qian's hand and swallowed some saliva from time to time.
All right! Ying Qian was not used to being watched while eating, so he waved his hand. Then he signaled the boss to bring a few more servings. The homeless children seemed to have been waiting for a moment. After Ying Qian's consent, they immediately picked up the food on the table and devoured it.
There was only one girl who was an exception. She stood quietly opposite Ying Qian, with a clear light in her bright eyes. She did not rush to take action like the other children, but quietly stared at Ying Qian, as if waiting for something.
Ying Qian noticed the difference in this girl. He stopped what he was doing, frowned slightly, and felt a little puzzled. He felt that this girl was a little different from other children. Her eyes revealed a unique temperament.
Ying Qian quietly observed the girl and could not help but feel curious about her. Perhaps it was because of her bright eyes, or perhaps it was because of the unique temperament she exuded, that Ying Qian felt close to her. When he first traveled through time, he was also alone and helpless, until he met the teachers and others, and this lonely life became easier.
"What's your name?" Ying Qian asked softly.
The girl didn't say anything, so Ying Qian could only ask again: "Why don't you eat with them?"
"I don't have any money." This time the girl spoke, her voice was pleasant and sounded very moving.
Ying Qian was moved when he heard her answer. He could feel the strength and pride in the girl's words. Although she had no money, she did not show weakness to others, but chose to stand aside quietly, waiting for her fate.
"Then you don't have to worry about it now." Ying Qian said with a smile, "I'll pay for today's meal."
After hearing this, the girl started to eat like other children, looking like she had been hungry for a long time.
These children must be orphans in the city, who survived until now by relying on charity from others. Ying Qian called the boss three times, and only then did he feed these hungry children. In the end, all the children left, and only the taciturn little girl stayed here.
Ying Qian asked, "Why don't you leave? Are you not full yet?"
The girl shook her head and said, "I ate your meal, but I have no money."
Now it was Ying Qian's turn to be troubled, but he still tried to control his expression and said, "I know this."
"My mother said that if we receive a favor from others, we should repay him." The little girl said lightly.
Hearing this, Ying Qian was slightly stunned, and smiled: "Your mother is right. But if you don't go home so late, your mother will be worried."
After saying that, Ying Qian stood up and was about to leave, but every time Ying Qian took a step, the little girl followed him. Ying Qian was helpless, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the little girl say, "My mother is dead."
When Ying Qian heard the little girl's words, he was shocked and stopped. He looked at the little girl gently, seeing the sadness and helplessness in her eyes.
"My mother is dead." The little girl just repeated it silently, as if she had said this to countless people.
He wanted to refuse, but looking at the girl's determined and serious eyes, Ying Qian actually felt a little reluctant and said, "Okay! Then you can follow me for the time being!"
After getting Ying Qian's consent, the little girl looked up at Ying Qian and said, "Ye Guyi."
"What?" Ying Qian didn't hear clearly.
"My name is Ye Guyi." The little girl repeated.
"Ye Guyi." Ying Qianyou repeated. He felt that the name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.
Helpless. Ying Qian had to find a hotel and arrange a room for Ye Guyi. Ying Qian planned to rest in this city for one night. Then he would find a carriage to travel tomorrow. During this time, Ying Qian did not forget to buy a new set of clothes for the girl and asked the waitress of the hotel to take her to wash up. When the waitress brought the girl back again, Ying Qian realized that the little girl had bright eyes and white teeth. She must be a peerless beauty when she grows up.
The next day, Ying Qian spent a few gold soul coins to rent a comfortable carriage, which took them all the way to Mingdu. From the vendors, they learned that the city where Ying Qian was now was located at the northernmost end of the Sun and Moon Empire. If they wanted to reach Mingdu, they just had to go west all the way. It would take about ten days or half a month. There were cities along the way, so they didn't need to bring too many supplies.
But Ying Qian did not listen to the vendor. He still bought a storage soul guide that looked good and brought enough food for nearly a month. In case something unexpected happened on the way, he could go without food and water for a month, but Ye Guyi could not!
Fortunately, Ye Guyi was not the kind of child who talked a lot. He did not cry or make a fuss along the way, and did not need Ying Qian to coax him. This made Ying Qian, who was not a talkative person, the one who took the initiative to talk the most.
"Gu Yi! We have an agreement that when we get to Mingdu, I will help you find a good place to go, but you can't follow me anymore."
During this journey, Ying Qian had said this countless times, but every time he mentioned this, Ye Guyi either shook his head or kept silent, which made Ying Qian feel helpless.
He was silent again, driving along the way, looking at the jungle in front. Ying Qian knew that they had arrived at the Demon Forest, which was the only dangerous place on this road. In addition to the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, who ranked second on the Fierce Beast List, the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Church might also be here.
Therefore, Ying Qian planned to bypass this place. Although doing so would double the distance they took to reach Mingdu, the advantage of doing so was safety. Before achieving his goal, Ying Qian did not want to cause too much trouble.
But this is the reality. Ying Qian didn't want trouble, but trouble came to him. When he was about to drive the carriage to take a detour, a series of cursors had already been marked on the map of Ying Qian. And the direction they came from was exactly the direction where Ying Qian and Ye Guyi were.
The next moment, two figures, a man and a woman, rushed out of the forest first. Following closely behind them was a large group of soul guides holding soul guides, chasing them relentlessly.
After seeing Ying Qian's carriage passing by, the woman seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw. She raised the token in her hand and shouted, "His Royal Highness the Prince of the Sun and Moon Empire is here again. Come and protect him."
"Prince?" Ying Qian heard this and instantly locked his eyes on the two people who were fleeing in a hurry. As expected. Although the man looked panicked, there was no mistaking the royal symbol on his clothes. The stars were the background, and the sun and the moon were in the same sky.
After confirming the man's identity as a prince, Ying Qian did not hesitate and quickly placed himself between the two men and the pursuers.
The pursuers had obviously received a death order, and when they saw Ying Qian standing in front of them, they did not even pause for too long. Dozens of high-heat soul guide shells whizzed towards Ying Qian.
Ying Qian snorted coldly, and his surging soul power was released instantly, forming an invisible defense in front of him.
"Bang, bang, bang." The two people who were originally running away couldn't help but look back after hearing the explosion.
After the smoke dissipated, Ying Qian's figure was still standing there, and from under his feet, nine soul rings, two yellow, two purple, two black, and three red, slowly rose.
"Confer a Titled Douluo?" Seeing the nine spirit rings, both the pursuing soldiers and the fleeing princes and women widened their eyes and stared at the nine spirit rings on Ying Qian.
"How is this possible? How could a Titled Douluo be so young?" One of the soul masters yelled in disbelief, and then the flying soul guide behind him sprayed light and rushed towards Ying Qian.
"Shut up." To deal with such low-level soul masters, Ying Qian didn't even need to take action. The release of dragon might alone was enough to suppress them so that they dared not move.
The next moment, a dragon head formed by soul power appeared behind Ying Qian. The dragon head was huge and majestic, gleaming with an ancient and mysterious aura, like the incarnation of a giant dragon. A gleam of light flashed in the dragon head's pupils, and then it roared towards the group of soul masters.
"Senior, leave him alive." The prince behind Ying Qian shouted.
However, it was too late. Under Ying Qian's attack, except for the soul guides scattered on the ground, the soul guides were completely destroyed.
And the voice of the system also sounded in Ying Qian's ears.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have devoured 1 level 5 soul mentor and level soul mentors, and gained years of cultivation. ]
