Douluo V: Taking advantage of Xiao Wu's youthful innocence, I tricked her into becoming my wife

Chapter 258 Reunion with an Old Friend? Di Tian's Shock!

The core area of ​​the Starry Sky Forest at dawn always has a dreamlike beauty, with thin mist swirling among the ancient trees and the golden light of the morning sun spreading across the treetops.

When Ye Hua landed with Huo Wu, the air was still filled with the scent of damp grass.

Gu Yuena sensed Ye Hua's presence from afar and personally went to greet him!

Her long, silvery-white hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her simple white dress exuded a serene and tranquil aura.

She looked up and saw Ye Hua, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

But then she saw that fiery red figure!

"I'm back."

"Yes, and I brought a friend along."

Gu Yuena's smile vanished abruptly.

She stopped in her tracks, her skirt fluttering, and her tone returned to its aloof and unapproachable manner.

Huo Wu felt an overwhelming sense of oppression and subconsciously took a half step back.

Suddenly, her eyes widened!

"Wait, you, you're that—orphan?!"

puff!

Di Tian, ​​who was serving nearby, was dumbfounded!

The Silver Dragon King? The Lord of Soul Beasts? An Orphan?!

Little girl, are you out of your mind?

Gu Yuena's face was ashen, but Huo Wu was still in shock, muttering to herself.

"That's right, you're the girl who single-handedly defeated the Barak team seven times in the Soul Master Tournament!"

"It's been two years, and you've grown so much!"

"I didn't expect you to be a soul beast in human form as well. Can you tell me your true form?"

"Fire Dance," Ye Hua had to interrupt, "she is the ruler of all soul beasts."

"Oh...wait, wait, wait?" Huo Wu was dumbfounded.

Bad girl, she won't hold a grudge, will she?

I just said she was an orphan...

As expected, Gu Yuena remained expressionless.

"Qilin, you returned to the Star Dou Great Forest just to find soul rings for humans?"

“A soul,” Ye Hua corrected, “not a soul ring; they are different!”

But Gu Yuena clearly didn't intend to discuss it further; she raised her hand, and the lake water receded.

"Di Tian, ​​the auspicious beast has come from afar. Please entertain it for me."

"I need to rest, so I won't keep you company."

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure disappeared into the lake.

Huo Wu touched her nose; she felt like she had just been on the verge of death.

Ye Hua shrugged. "That's just her temper. You'll get used to it."

Seeing Gu Yuena leave, Di Tian felt bitter.

On one side is the master he must obey, and on the other side is the auspicious beast symbolizing the prosperity of soul beasts. He is caught in the middle, and it is wrong for him to stand either way!

Left with no other option, he stepped forward and said, "Ye Hua, what is it you need to tell me?"

"Although the Lord is angry with you, I believe she will not make things difficult for you."

"My business isn't urgent," Ye Hua smiled. "You should meet your old friends first!"

Di Tian was bewildered. "Huh? I don't remember anyone visiting?"

Ye Hua smiled without saying a word, and reached out to touch his brow.

Two illusory soul figures floated out from his soul ring.

As soon as the ice silkworm landed, it stretched lazily and took a deep breath with a look of ecstasy on its face.

"Ah—the feeling of freedom!"

"The air of the Star Dou Great Forest!"

"There's no fishy smell from the bottom of the Lake of Life!"

"Comfortable!"

Xue Di followed closely behind, her short, icy blue hair covering her earlobes, and a faint chill emanating from her.

She surveyed her surroundings and nodded slightly to Emperor Tian.

Di Tian gasped, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Snow Emperor? What are you doing here—"

"The tribulation has failed."

Xue Di spoke with a touch of self-deprecating humor.

"I can't survive that calamity, so I might as well offer myself as a sacrifice to him and become a soul. That's better than being reduced to ashes."

"Besides, the Qilin are our own people; at least they won't benefit humans!"

Di Tian remained silent for a long time, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

“There are already too few powerful soul beasts in the world.”

"Today, another one has left us."

Upon hearing this, Tianmeng Bingcan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Since you said 'again,' then would you consider me a powerful and ferocious beast?"

"I've been around for at least a million years, so I should count, right?"

Di Tian looked disdainful, as if he were looking at a moldy loaf of bread.

"You're paying for my snacks."

"What?!"

The silkworm in the sky immediately bristled.

He sprang up like a spring and pounced towards the heavens!

"Di Tian, ​​you've gone too far in bullying us!"

"I haven't settled the score with you for locking me at the bottom of the lake and extracting my soul power back then!"

"I absolutely have to—"

Snapped.

Di Tian didn't even exert any pressure; he simply lifted it up with a casual gesture.

Tianmeng Bingcan landed face down in the muddy ground with a thud, leaving only his two legs still kicking unwillingly.

"...I'll fight you to the death!"

"Ugh—ugh—"

Xue Di shook her head. "That's just how he is. Ignore him."

Di Tian's eyes were complicated. "It seems that your new system research has already shown initial results."

"Even non-spiritual soul beasts can become... uh, soul spirits!"

"This is all thanks to Brother Tianmeng!" Ye Hua squatted down and pulled Tianmeng Ice Silkworm out of the mud pit.

He casually brushed the broken leaves off the puppet, then turned to Di Tian, ​​his tone becoming serious.

"Di Tian, ​​I have come here to ask you to find a suitable 40,000-year-old soul spirit for her!"

"It would be best if she could absorb it here, after all, the life force can help stabilize her condition!"

Ye Hua points to the fire dance.

Di Tian glanced at her and said, "She has a good foundation. She can withstand a 40,000-year soul ring."

He raised his hand, closed his eyes for a moment, and dark golden soul power condensed at his fingertips, disappearing into the dense forest.

A moment later, a low tremor came from the southeast, and the bushes parted to the sides.

A colossal beast covered in crimson scales and treading on fire slowly approached!

Earthfire Beast!

Its size is comparable to a truck, and the ground trembles when its four hooves touch the ground!

But when it got closer, it didn't adopt an attack stance; it simply lay down quietly.

“Lord Qilin,” its voice was old and hoarse, “the Beast God said you were looking for me.”

Ye Hua stepped forward, squatted down to look it in the eye, and spoke gently.

"Your life is nearing its end, you know that yourself."

“I am willing to give you a choice: to entrust your soul to the soul ring, retain your intelligence, and continue living with her.”

The Earth Flame Beast slowly raised its head, looked at Huo Wu, then at Ye Hua, a thoughtful look flashing in its eyes.

"To put it bluntly, it's a sacrifice, isn't it?" it uttered a long, low growl.

“Not entirely,” Ye Hua admitted. “You can retain your intelligence and still see this world.”

"However, if she fails to become a god, you will also die in a few decades."

"Become a god? Decades?" The Earth Flame Beast shook its head. "The former is too far away, the latter should be enough."

"I'm going to die next year, so living a few decades longer is a bonus!"

Ye Hua nodded and looked at Tianmeng Bingcan, "Begin."

Tianmeng Bingcan had already gotten up from the ground, brushed the grass clippings off his robe, and looked refreshed.

He focused his spiritual energy, which, like pale golden threads, probed into the Earth Flame Beast's brow.

Guide its soul and soul power to slowly flow into Huo Wu's body.

Huo Wu sat cross-legged by the lake, ripples spreading across the water, a sense of vitality washing over her.

Her eyes were closed, and fine beads of sweat were seeping from her forehead, but her expression remained calm.

Di Tian stood a few steps away, watching the whole thing.

What happened next left him speechless!

Chapter 259 What if I abducted both Violet and Jade...

The Earth Flame Beast's body gradually became transparent.

The crimson scales shattered into tiny fragments like glass in the morning light, fluttering and drifting into the soul ring.

The moment the last crimson light disappeared into the soul ring, Huo Wu's soul power suddenly surged!

She slowly opened her eyes and exhaled a stale breath. "Level 61! Thank you, Teacher Ye!"

"It's alright," Ye Hua said, sensing her breath. "How does it feel?"

"Great, much better than I expected!" Huo Wu exclaimed.

"There was no resentment or rejection; it was as natural as water merging into the sea."

Di Tian frowned after hearing Huo Wu's words.

Seeing Di Tian's reaction, Huo Wu quickly released the Earth Flame Beast.
