Chapter 36 Angering the Azure Bull Python

Sometimes, even if you guess the truth, you're still shocked when you actually know the outcome, like Tang Nian is now.

"Understood, Sister Xiaowu." The bull-headed, snake-bodied soul beast immediately retreated to its original position.

"Sister Xiaowu?" Tang Nian looked at the two soul beasts, then turned to look at Xiaowu in disbelief, clearly unable to believe what she had heard.

Xiao Wu nodded, walked up to Tang Nian, pointed to the bull-headed, snake-bodied soul beast beside her, and said, "This is Da Ming." After a pause, she pointed to the Titan Giant Ape, "That's Er Ming."

Tang Nian hesitated for a moment before speaking, "You are...?"

"Niannian, I consider you a friend. I'm willing to tell you my secret, but can you keep it a secret for me? Don't even tell Tang San." Xiao Wu's eyes were pleading.

Tang Nian also considered Xiao Wu a friend from the bottom of her heart. She nodded firmly, "If you are willing to tell me, I can be a good listener, and I will also keep this secret forever."

Xiao Wu sighed and said, "Actually, I am a 100,000-year-old soul beast, the Soft Bone Rabbit, who has transformed into a human."

Tang Nian looked Xiao Wu up and down, but couldn't see any connection between her and the soul beast.

Xiao Wu hesitated for a moment, but in the end she didn't tell Tang Nian about the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall's power was too great, and she didn't want to involve Tang Nian.

"Even after becoming a 100,000-year-old soul beast, we will still face death after another thousand years. However, after transforming into human form, we will have the hope of escaping death. We can cultivate like soul masters and eventually become gods, thus achieving immortality."

Tang Nian's eyes were filled with shock. "You can actually do that?"

Xiao Wu nodded. "Da Ming and Er Ming are also 100,000-year-old soul beasts, but they did not choose to become human."

"No wonder even with Teacher Zhao, a Soul Saint, we still couldn't defeat Erming together." After a pause, Tang Nian looked up at the Titan Giant Ape with a smile and said, "However, you are really amazing."

This was the first time the Titan Ape had been praised like this by a human, and a hint of shyness seemed to appear on his dark face.

Tang Nian, however, was somewhat puzzled. Pointing at the bull-headed, snake-bodied soul beast, she asked, "Xiao Wu, this guy can speak human language, can't Er Ming?"

"Da Ming is the Azure Bull Python, one of the rulers of the Star Dou Great Forest. His cultivation is a little bit higher than Er Ming's." As she spoke, Xiao Wu held up two fingers and made a gesture for Tang Nian.

Tang Nian clicked his tongue and looked at the Azure Bull Python, saying, "I really didn't expect you to be so unassuming."

The Azure Bull Python feigned anger, saying, "Sister Xiao Wu, look at the friends you made in human society. Why can't I be any better?"

Tang Nian shrugged and ignored her.

"You, you, you..." This time, it was the Azure Bull Python's turn to be speechless for a long time.

Enraged, the Azure Bull Python lashed its tail, splashing water all over Tang Nian. However, it moved very carefully, and this enormous creature only managed to splash a few drops of water.

Tang Nian rolled her eyes helplessly as she looked at the wet hem of her skirt. "Hey, you're a 100,000-year-old soul beast, can you stop being so childish? Do you know that only cubs do this in our human world?"

The Azure Bull Python stared at Tang Nian for a long time, then finally let out a cold snort, returned to the water, and disappeared without a trace.

"Why are you getting angry after just a few words?" Tang Nian muttered to herself.

Xiao Wu suppressed a laugh, "In all these years, you're the first person to have angered the Ming Dynasty like this."

"Who wants to talk to him?" Tang Nian paused, then smiled. "Er Ming is much cuter."

The Titan Ape proudly raised its head to the side.

The azure ox python beneath the lake glared angrily at the fish and shrimp swimming around it.

Xiao Wu said, "Now that I'm out, I'll complete my third soul ring. Er Ming, you protect me."

The Titan Ape let out a low growl. Although its voice was not loud, it carried for a thousand meters, and the surrounding soul beasts fled frantically outside.

Then Tang Nian witnessed a magical scene: she sat cross-legged, her hands forming a delicate pinky gesture, her right palm facing upwards on her thigh, her left hand held upright in front of her chest, and she made a series of strange sounds.

Tang Nian nodded as if she understood, but not quite. So, a 100,000-year-old soul beast can transform into a human and form its own soul ring.

Just then, the mournful howl of some unknown soul beast came from not far away. It didn't seem to be hunting soul rings, but the sound was very strange.

The Titan Ape looked in that direction with concern.

Tang Nian noticed his worry and smiled, "Don't worry, I'll go see what's going on."

The Titan Ape nodded, and Tang Nian vaguely saw a look of gratitude on its face.

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

Tang Nian dared not delay and flew swiftly towards the direction where the soul beast cried out.

Under the bright moonlight, the man's hair was neatly combed back and secured with a purple hairband. His back was as straight as a pine tree. In front of him was a dead, ancient phantom bear. Surprisingly, a young phantom bear was leaning against the phantom bear's side.

The man approached the bear cub quietly, reached out, gently picked it up, and carefully placed it in his arms.

He turned around, a captivating smile playing on his lips. He was indeed as gentle and refined as jade, and the moonlight cast a soft shadow on his profile, like a veil, making him even more handsome.

He gently stroked the bear's head. "The bear has no mother. It's so pitiful. Come with me from now on."

The little bear in his arms nestled quietly against him, as if it had found a sense of security and warmth.

His eyes seemed to hold a thousand stars, captivating all who looked into them. He looked up at Tang Nian's hiding place and said, "Little girl, peeping is a bad habit."

Tang Nian knew she had been discovered, but she didn't hesitate and stepped out from behind the tree. Facing this person, she couldn't help but lower her voice, "I just heard the mournful cries of a soul beast over here, and I thought something had happened, so I came to check it out."

His voice trailed off with a hint of amusement, his tone clean. "It was my fault. I didn't keep my men in check, and he accidentally killed the Phantom Bear. He has already received the punishment he deserved."

Tang Nian fell silent. So, it seemed that the death of the little bear's mother was somewhat related to him.

The man asked with some curiosity, "Young lady, the place you came from is the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest. The soul beasts in there are very ferocious. Why did you come out from there alone? Where are your family?"

Tang Nian was speechless; she truly had no way of knowing about her pleasant conversation with the overlord of the Star Dou Great Forest.

So she had no choice but to speak up, "I got separated from my teacher and the others. I didn't know that the area over there was the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest."
