Douluo Continent: After seizing the opportunity, I achieved dual godhood.

Chapter 4 The Winged Serpent

Upon seeing the figures in the distance, Wen Ning immediately began discussing with the system.

"System, I don't like the hundred-year-old soul beast Tang San obtained here. But should I meet with Tang San right now?"

The system quickly answered her question, "No need."

Why?

"If you're not interested in the century-old Datura snake, why are you going to see him?"

That makes sense.

But Tang San is the protagonist, so isn't it a timeless principle that those who follow the protagonist get to enjoy the benefits?

The system seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and added, "However, if you want to befriend Tang San, you can go over there."

What?

Befriend Tang San?

How could she steal other people's things after befriending Tang San?

That's not good.

"Forget it, I won't go. If I befriend them, how am I supposed to steal their opportunities?"

Hearing her say that, the system didn't say anything more.

"Xiao Ning, a control-type soul beast would be better suited to your first martial soul. Regardless of whether your second martial soul is the Emerald Swan or not, healing-type soul beasts are relatively rare, so you might not find the soul beast you're looking for on this trip."

Lin Wu gave Wen Ning a heads-up in advance to prevent Wen Ning from having high expectations.

Wen Ning had never intended to add spirit rings to the Emerald Swan martial soul, so he wasn't saddened by Lin Wu's words. He simply smiled and nodded, "I understand, Uncle Lin."

Seeing how well-behaved she was, Lin Wu couldn't help but clench his fist, hoping that this trip would help him find the most suitable soul beast for the two children.

After giving Wen Ning his instructions, Lin Wu looked at the more composed Wen Lin and said, "Lin, you have a weapon spirit, so what you mainly need to improve is the offensive power of your spirit. Therefore, you need to find a spirit beast with strong offensive capabilities as your spirit ring."

"Okay, Uncle Lin."

Wen Lin had actually thought of this, but he didn't know which soul beasts were offensive type soul beasts and which were control type soul beasts, since he hadn't learned anything about soul beasts at all.

"System, I suddenly remembered, Tang San cultivates both control and attack. If I cultivate both control and healing, wouldn't I be repeating the same mistake?"

Suddenly remembering something, Wen Ning began to question the system in his mind.

"Yes, but the soul beast you need is different from the soul beast he needs, so don't be fixated on this."

That's true, she doesn't actually control the water element; she has the Silver Dragon King martial soul.

"Then where do you think I should go to find a suitable soul beast?"

"By the water."

The system gave a concise answer, and Wen Ning understood its meaning almost immediately. She immediately said, "Uncle Lin, why don't we go to the water's edge and take a look? My martial soul is water element control, so water-based soul beasts are definitely more suitable for me."

Halfway there, Lin Wu suddenly heard Wen Ning's words and stopped in his tracks.

"Go to the water? I know there's a river not far from here. I encountered a soul beast there last time."

He accepted Wen Ning's suggestion, led Wen Ning around a corner, and walked in another direction, separating themselves from Tang San and the others in the distance.

Tang San, who had been keeping an eye on Wen Ning and the others, saw them leave and couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, were they also here to obtain spirit rings?"

Yu Xiaogang had noticed the commotion earlier. Looking at Wen Ning and the others' backs, he said softly, "Entering the Soul Hunting Forest is naturally to obtain soul rings, but those two children... they look about your age. Have they reached the point where they need to obtain soul rings too?"

His voice was filled with doubt, and he was quite surprised by it.

Upon hearing this, Tang San frowned and offered a conjecture, "Perhaps those two children also possess innate full soul power?"

Upon hearing Tang San's words, Yu Xiaogang immediately denied it, saying, "Probably not."

"There have only been a dozen or so people with innate full soul power in the last hundred years, and there has never been such a situation in a short period of time."

Is that right?

Can't there be an exception?

Watching the other person walk away, Tang San felt that something was not right.

He felt something was even more off about that little girl.

It's like encountering a formidable opponent.

Finally, when Tang San looked away, Wen Ning couldn't hold back any longer and blurted out, "Seriously? Why was he staring at me for so long?"

Of course, this wasn't said to Lin Wu or Wen Lin.

The system remained silent for a while before finally replying, "Your age is too close to his."

The protagonist has a sixth sense, so it's understandable that his gaze would linger on someone who can change his fate.

Wen Ning was convinced by the system's words.

She chuckled softly, touched her nose, and said, "Tremble, Tang San."

"..."

After walking for more than an hour, just before Wen Ning's feet were about to give out, she finally saw the babbling water.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The river is not wide, but the water is so clear that it is difficult to judge how deep it is.

Wen Ning sat down on the riverbank and asked weakly, "Uncle Lin, what kind of spirit beast did you encounter in this river?"

Their booted feet were just a few steps from the riverbank.

When asked this question, Lin Wu thought for a while before giving an answer.

That was several years ago. He had entered the Soul Hunting Forest to obtain his second soul ring and wanted to wash his hands in this river because he had just killed a Nether Wolf that tried to bite him, and his hands were covered in blood.

As he was washing, he felt something was wrong with his hands and quickly stopped.

He still remembers the cold, slippery feeling, and the fact that the water snake appeared suddenly means that it had the ability to become invisible!

Invisibility ability...

Seeing Wen Ning so close to the riverbank, Lin Wu immediately wanted to reach out and pull Wen Ning over, but he heard Wen Ning's voice as soon as he made a move.

The other person accurately uttered what he had just been thinking, "Uncle Lin, the soul beast you encountered, did it... have the ability to become invisible?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Wu instinctively widened his eyes.

What?

Xiao Ning actually guessed it?

How did you know?

His voice was filled with surprise.

Feeling the cold touch that had already wrapped around her groin, Wen Ning's voice was somewhat melancholy, "I felt my legs were a little cold as soon as I lay down."

"Then I realized this chill could move... Could it be a snake?"

Wen Ning's voice eventually carried a sense of utter despair.

Although she didn't want to admit it, she really hated cold, slippery snakes.

"It's a rove snake!"

As soon as Lin Wu finished speaking, Wen Ning immediately stood up, took out the short knife he had prepared beforehand, and plunged it into the ground!

In an instant, blood splattered, and even a few drops of blood fell on her tender face. Under Lin Wu's shocked gaze, Wen Ning clicked her tongue lightly.

"I hate snakes the most."

As he spoke, he pulled out a short knife that looked like it was stuck in the air.

At this moment, the snake's true form was fully revealed.
