Douluo Continent: Contract with Gu Yuena, Start by Slaying Tang Shenwang

Chapter 17: The Forest Arrives, Shrek's Soul Hunting Operation

Along the way, Bai Xuan and Gu Yuena saw many Soul Masters heading towards Tianshan, and the things they were talking about were all related to the inheritance of divine positions.

Many low-level Soul Masters are eager to pursue this, harboring high hopes.

He kept telling himself that the succession to this divine position was not based on strength. Even if someone had high talent but was currently weak, they might still have a chance.

Soul Masters who are weak and lack talent tell themselves, "What if I am highly compatible with the divine position?"

In short, each had their own reasons and felt they had a chance to become a god.

They were willing to try this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even if the chances were slim.

Bai Xuan and Gu Yuena did not join the group heading to Tianshan, but instead traveled south.

They are currently located within the territory of the Douling Empire, approximately two thousand miles from the Star Dou Great Forest.

It took them five full days to finally get close to the Star Dou Great Forest.

They trekked through mountains and rivers, encountering many rare and precious natural treasures, and reaped a rich harvest.

This is thanks to the treasure-hunting rat's ability to find treasures. It is very sensitive to rare and precious materials. It can get a general sense of them as long as it gets within ten miles, and then it can accurately locate them with a little searching.

Gu Yuena also intended to let the treasure-hunting rat sense things along the way to see if it could be lucky enough to find the Dragon God's relics again. Therefore, after shortening the distance to a range of a thousand miles, she still hadn't contacted Di Tian to come and pick them up.

Once inside the forest, the treasure-hunting rats became even more active, as if they had entered a treasure trove filled with hidden gems.

She soon made another discovery, sniffing the air, but then frowned.

"There is a strong smell of blood."

The treasure-hunting rat said with some disgust, "This isn't the taste I like."

Gu Yuena frowned. This was most likely because a large number of human soul masters had entered the forest to hunt soul beasts.

She was naturally unhappy about this.

Bai Xuan slowed his pace; the atmosphere in the air made him feel slightly uneasy.

"Stop first."

Bai Xuan said something to Gu Yuena, then used the two trees to bounce back and forth, nimbly reaching the top of the tree.

Seeing how nimbly Bai Xuan climbed the tree, Gu Yuena couldn't resist trying it herself, but the result was somewhat embarrassing.

She couldn't be as relaxed and carefree as Bai Xuan.

hey-hey--

The treasure-hunting rat found Gu Yuena's behavior somewhat amusing.

Gu Yuena slapped the treasure-hunting rat in annoyance, and silver wings appeared on her back as she slowly flew up.

Just as he was about to peek out and follow Bai Xuan's gaze, Bai Xuan pressed his head down.

"what."

Gu Yuena said somewhat unhappily, and instead of sticking her head out again, she lowered her head under the tree canopy and looked over through the gaps in the trees.

His brows were furrowed, and several Soul Masters could be vaguely seen flying in the distance, releasing their Martial Souls and making their moves.

Their target was obvious: the soul beasts.

This is a group of people entering the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts.

"court death."

Gu Yuena spoke coldly, saying that they should notify Di Tian as soon as possible so that he could deal with these people.

Do these humans really think that the soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest are pigs they raise, and that they can kill as many as they want?

"These people look so vicious."

The treasure-hunting rat was a little scared. Despite having a cultivation of 100,000 years, its combat power was still inferior to some combat-type 10,000-year-old soul beasts.

Treasure hunting is her main skill; she is not good at fighting.

Over the years, I haven't really fought much, and I'm quite averse to it.

When faced with danger, she still habitually runs away first.

Bai Xuan watched with a calm expression, then gradually withdrew his gaze, landing on the ground before speaking to Gu Yuena:

"Let's contact Di Tian, ​​otherwise we won't be able to go inside."

"Um."

Gu Yuena had long intended to do this, and tried to communicate with the silver dragon scale using the method Bai Xuan had taught her over the past few days.

In the underground space of the Lake of Life, Di Tian suddenly sensed something and excitedly took out the silver dragon scale.

"Yes, my lord."

He quickly got up and disappeared into the underground space in the next moment.

Not long after they made contact, the space in front of Bai Xuan and Gu Yuena began to distort, and Di Tian emerged from it.

"Di Tian greets Your Majesty."

Di Tian immediately bowed respectfully, even though in his perception his master seemed to have little cultivation left, he still showed the same reverence.

After sensing Di Tian's aura, the treasure-hunting rat shrank its neck in fear.

"Get up," Gu Yuena said sternly.

Di Tian then stood up and excitedly asked Gu Yuena to confirm:

"My lord, did you really kill a god-king?"

Gu Yuena glanced at Bai Xuan beside her subconsciously, thinking to herself, "I didn't kill him, it was him."

However, she couldn't explain her relationship with Bai Xuan in detail, so she could only admit to it.

Upon receiving confirmation, Di Tian was extremely excited and felt even greater awe for Gu Yuena; this was their powerful lord.

"I also suffered a serious injury and it's not advisable for me to use my original divine-level cultivation for a while. Therefore, I will be relatively weak during this period, and I will need you to help me with some things."

Gu Yuena said that she did not want to reveal that she had lost all her cultivation, and she still maintained the necessary vigilance.

"Please give your orders, my lord," Di Tian said.

Gu Yuena nodded in satisfaction, looked in one direction, and said in an icy tone:

"There are quite a few Soul Masters hunting Soul Beasts over there. Go and take care of them, leave no one alive."

Di Tian also sensed the commotion over there, and after receiving Gu Yuena's instructions, he naturally had no reason to hesitate.

"Wait a moment."

Bai Xuan called for a halt.

Di Tian frowned, as if he had only just noticed Bai Xuan's presence.

Who is this person?

"Wait a moment," Gu Yuena said, introducing Bai Xuan first:

"This is a friend of mine, whose identity is special and cannot be revealed to you. Just know that you should treat him as you would me, and not show him the slightest disrespect. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Gu Yuena spoke very strongly, determined not to allow her subordinates' soul beasts to anger Bai Xuan.

Hearing Gu Yuena say this, Di Tian was shocked. He became even more curious about Bai Xuan's identity and bowed to him respectfully.

"From now on, address him as Your Excellency, and do not call him by his given name," Gu Yuena added.

"Yes," Di Tian replied.

"Why did you tell Di Tian to stop?" Gu Yuena asked Bai Xuan, sensing there must be a reason.

"It's not too late to let him make a move after we get to the Lake of Life. Remember to bring two more soul beasts with us when we come back, that way we'll be on the safe side."

Bai Xuan said that his intuition told him that this matter was not that simple.

"That's true." Gu Yuena also realized that her cultivation level was still weak and it was indeed not suitable for her to withstand the aftershocks of the battle here.

Di Tian did as instructed, opening a spatial passage and bringing Bai Xuan and Gu Yuena to the Lake of Life.

"Greetings, Lord."

A group of spirit beasts came to welcome them.

"Bear King, Demon King, you two go with Di Tian to deal with those who dare to enter the Star Dou Great Forest in groups to hunt soul beasts. Leave no survivors."

"Gu Yuena commanded."

"Yes."

Di Tian led Xiong Jun and Wan Yao Wang back.
