Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: Starting with a Bond to God King Tang San

Chapter 148 First Encounter with Vina and Her Group

Seeing this, Deng Mu quickly helped the unconscious Xiao Xiao up and walked towards the tent.

"Wang Dong, what's wrong with Xiao Xiao?"

Seeing Deng Mu helping Xiao Xiao walk towards the tent, Huo Yutong asked Wang Dong with some confusion.

After saying that, he picked up a piece of meat he had grilled and took a bite. He thought the bear meat tasted pretty good.

Wang Dong thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Xiao is a little sleepy and has fallen asleep. Deng Mu will take Xiao Xiao back to her tent to sleep."

Huo Yutong nodded, watching Deng Mu help Xiao Xiao walk further and further away, a trace of worry welling up in her heart.

She looked at the bear meat in her hand again, wondering if Xiao Xiao was exhausted.

At this moment, Xuanzi finished the bear meat in his hand, licked his lips with lingering satisfaction, and said, "This bear meat is indeed delicious. Deng Mu's cooking skills are beyond reproach."

Huo Yutong smiled and replied, "Yes, Brother Mu has always been amazing."

While Huo Yutong and Xuanzi were chatting, Wang Dong quietly tossed Huo Yutong's piece of roasted meat into the bushes some distance away. She didn't want to faint like Xiao Xiao.

A passing wolf saw a piece of meat flying towards it and opened its mouth without thinking.

It thought to itself that it was incredibly lucky; it had only been out for a short while and food was flying towards it.

After eating that piece of meat, the wolf let out a miserable howl, foamed at the mouth, and collapsed to the ground.

Upon arriving at the tent, Deng Mu carefully covered Xiao Xiao with a blanket, marveling at Huo Yutong's impressive cooking skills.

I wonder who Huo Yutong learned this skill from?

Raiden General from Genshin Impact?

In any case, we shouldn't let Huo Yutong cook anymore; it might actually lead to someone's death.

After covering Xiao Xiao with the blanket, Deng Mu cast a Blue Silver Rejuvenation spell on her, then left the tent and returned to his spot to continue roasting the bear paw.

Xuanzi looked at the two bear paws being roasted over the fire and asked Deng Mu, "Deng Mu, when will these two bear paws be ready?"

He knew very well that bear paws tasted delicious, and with Deng Mu's culinary skills, he couldn't even imagine how good the roasted bear paws would taste.

While turning the bear paw over, Deng Mu replied without looking up, "Almost done. This bear paw needs to be roasted for a while longer, otherwise it won't taste good if it's not cooked properly."

Just as everyone was chatting and laughing while eating bear meat, six men and two women were attracted by the aroma from afar and slowly walked over following the scent.

Xuanzi took a piece of roasted bear paw and quietly hid in the shadows.

He wanted to see how Deng Mu and his two companions would deal with those people. If they launched an attack and Deng Mu and his companions couldn't defeat them, then he would step in and take care of them.

The man with the bamboo pole was surprised to see that there were only three people, Deng Mu and his companion. He hadn't expected that there would only be three boys and girls who looked to be 13 years old.

Deng Mu looked at the man with the bamboo pole and asked, "What do you want?"

Looking at these people, Deng Mu recalled for a moment and guessed that they should be Vina and the others.

Vina is the princess of the Heavenly Soul Empire. She possesses the twin martial souls, Snow Lotus and Brain. She has a fiancé named Long Aotian, who remembers that Vina seems to be a member of the Body Sect.

The middle-aged man at the head of the group spoke up, saying, "We mean no harm; we just came to check out a fragrant aroma."

As he spoke, he sized up Deng Mu and the other two, secretly thinking that these three must be extraordinary individuals.

Based on my understanding, Deng Mu and the other two should be around 13 years old, and their highest level should be Soul Venerable, but their level is unlikely to be too high.

As for why no elders were with them, he guessed that they were probably secretly training Deng Mu and the other two.

He didn't believe that anyone would be a fool to enter the Star Dou Great Forest without any real strength.

For weak Soul Masters and ordinary people, the Star Dou Great Forest is a place where death is a near certainty.

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "My name is Mo Feiyun. These are my companions. May we also warm ourselves by the fire and rest for a while?"

Hearing Mo Feiyun's words, Deng Mu nodded in agreement.

He wasn't worried about these people. With his strength, dealing with them would be a piece of cake, not a difficult task at all.

While the two were talking, Wang Dong and Huo Yutong were sizing up the people opposite them, who were also sizing up Deng Mu and his group.

Both sides are wary of each other and don't really trust each other.

Seeing that Deng Mu agreed, Mo Feiyun and his group came over, and two of them quickly set up the tent.

The others sat down by the campfire, and the smell of Deng Mu's roasted meat made them all swallow hard.

They never expected that Deng Mu would be so good-looking and that his food would taste so delicious.

Mo Feiyun appeared very enthusiastic and smiled, "Three children, may I ask your names?"

Deng Mu picked up the roasted bear paw: "My name is Tang Wu, and their names are Xiao Yu and Wang Qiu."

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

I was going to say my name was Tang Wulin, but after thinking about it, I decided against it.

Wang Dong looked at Deng Mu strangely when he heard the name Deng Mu mentioned, but didn't say anything.

Mo Feiyun said, "You are all quite young, but your soul power fluctuations are not weak. However, it is not a good choice to rush into the Star Dou Great Forest."

Deng Mu divided the bear paw in two and gave it to Wang Dong and Huo Yutong. He then looked at Mo Feiyun and said, "We've been here a few times before. This time, we're just hunting suitable soul beasts on the outskirts."

After saying that, he picked up the rest of the bear meat and began to eat.

Mo Feiyun then asked, "Where are you from? Are you from a sect or an academy?"

Deng Mu replied, "We are students from the Star Luo Empire, from the Star Luo National Academy."

Upon hearing the words "Star Luo National Academy," Mo Feiyun and his group visibly showed surprise.

They had no idea that Deng Mu and his companions were actually students of the Star Luo National Academy.

Deng Mu asked, "Uncle Mo, are you the same as us?"

Mo Feiyun nodded and said, "Some of our companions have also reached their cultivation bottlenecks. This time, we're just trying our luck in the Star Dou Great Forest."

While he was speaking, their tents were already set up.

Deng Mu pointed to the bear meat and said to Mo Feiyun and the others, "Uncle, would you like some? There's still plenty of meat."

Mo Feiyun smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No, we brought our own food."

They were still somewhat wary. They didn't completely believe Deng Mu and his two companions, who claimed to be from the Star Luo National Academy, since they had no proof.

Even though Deng Mu and his companions were students at the Star Luo National Academy, they weren't sure if the three of them would try to harm them.

Seeing this, Deng Mu didn't mind Mo Feiyun's wariness and said with a smile, "It's alright, uncles, you can make your own arrangements."

Huo Yutong looked at Mo Feiyun and the others, a hint of curiosity in her eyes, and asked softly, "Uncle, where are you all from?"

Mo Feiyun glanced at Huo Yutong and replied, "We come from the Heavenly Soul Empire."
