As the night deepens, the bamboo shadows sway.

The village chief and Jiang Nanying walked in the moonlight to the residence of Xiao Han and the other two and gently knocked on the bamboo door.

"Come in." Xiao Han's voice came from inside the house.

The village chief pushed the door open and walked in, followed closely by Jiang Nanying.

Inside the house, Wanda was using chaos magic to adjust a floating crimson lamp, while Kara was lying leisurely on a wicker chair.

Xiao Han raised his hand and tapped it lightly. The red light of the Reality Gem flowed, and two cups of steaming hot tea appeared on the table: "Please enjoy."

The village chief and Jiang Nanying looked at each other. Although a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, they quickly regained their composure.

"Mr. Xiao," the village chief stroked the teacup with his old fingers.

"You three, are you supposed to have super powers?"

Xiao Han smiled without saying anything and just took a sip of tea.

The village chief sighed and continued, "We in Taro Village have been practicing Qi for generations, nourishing ourselves with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. I have practiced for over seventy years, and I can more or less sense the tremendous energy within you three."

Jiang Nanying sat aside, her eyes moving between the three people with a bit of curiosity and awe.

"We welcome you here." The village chief put down his teacup with a serious expression.

"But since you're here, I have a favor to ask."

Wanda and Kara looked at each other, and Xiao Han nodded slightly: "Please speak."

The village chief took a deep breath and said, "Our village is suppressing a soul-devouring beast."

"Soul-devouring beast?" Kara raised her eyebrows.

"That is the demon that was sealed by the dragon thousands of years ago." Jiang Nanying took over the conversation in a low voice.

"It feeds on souls. The dragon sacrificed itself to seal it here, leaving only a dragon egg."

The village chief stood up, walked to the window, and pointed to the moonlit valley in the distance. "It's in the forbidden area over there. But recently, the seal has been getting weaker."

Wanda asked curiously, "So you want us to help?"

"That's right." The village chief turned around, his eyes burning.

"If the three of you can destroy the Soul Devourer, we are willing to give you several of the tamed divine beasts in the village."

"Divine beast?" Kara became interested.

Jiang Nanying nodded: "Phoenix, Qilin, Bai Ze, although they are only cubs, they have infinite potential."

Xiao Han pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "Take us to see the seal first."

......

After passing through the quiet bamboo forest, everyone came to an altar surrounded by nine stone pillars.

In the center of the altar is an ancient well, the mouth of the well is engraved with intricate runes, but it has become dim.

"It's here." The village chief pointed to the ancient well.

"The seal is below."

Xiao Han approached the wellhead, his super vision penetrating the darkness.

Deep in the bottom of the well, a cloud of black mist was swirling, and it could be vaguely seen that he was about to break through the seal.

"Is this the Soul-Eating Beast?" Kara also saw it.

"The devil has been trying to break the seal, and we have no feasible solution." Jiang Nanying said in a heavy tone.

Suddenly, a roar came from the bottom of the well, and the entire altar shook!

Black mist seeped out of the well and transformed into a hideous ghost face: "Fresh soul!"

"Powerful soul!" The voice of the Soul-Devouring Beast echoed in everyone's mind, filled with greed and madness.

"After thousands of years, I finally waited for such a delicacy!"

The village chief's face turned pale and he stumbled back: "It's over, the seal is about to be broken!"

Jiang Nanying gripped his sword tightly, ready to fight to the death at any time.

"It's noisy."

Xiao Han suddenly took a step forward and swung out with his right fist in an ordinary way.

Under the horrified gazes of the village chief and Jiang Nanying, he punched the ancient well!

"boom!!!"

With a deafening explosion, the entire sealed altar was instantly shattered!

Nine stone pillars were broken in half, and the ancient well was razed to the ground, revealing a deep cave underneath.

"What did you do?!" The village chief collapsed on the ground, his face ashen.

"The seal has been broken?!"

The smoke and dust cleared, and the Soul Devourer's ecstatic roar could be heard from the cave: "Freedom! I am finally..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Han's eyes suddenly lit up with a scarlet light.

The heat vision and magic intertwined, transforming into a red-gold beam wrapped in rune chains, which shot into the cave!

"boom!!"

No screaming, no struggle.

The Soul Devourer's existence was completely wiped out conceptually by this attack, leaving not even ashes.

Chapter 137 Three Pets

The entire forbidden area fell into deathly silence.

The village chief and Jiang Nanying were stunned, their mouths open wide enough for an egg to fit in.

The guardian dragon poked its head out of the lake and looked at Xiao Han with the same confused expression.

"Solved?" Wanda blinked.

Kara shrugged. "Apparently."

Xiao Han shook his hands and turned to look at the two petrified village chiefs: "I'm sorry, I was a little too rough and broke your altar."

The village chief finally found his voice: "You, you, that's a soul-devouring beast!"

"Yes." Xiao Han nodded.

"so what?"

The sword in Jiang Nanying's hand fell to the ground with a clang.

She mechanically turned to look at the village chief: "Village chief, what have we been guarding for these thousands of years?"

Xiao Han spread his hands: "Maybe I'm in a hurry?"

The village chief suddenly burst into tears, not knowing whether he was happy or sad.

He stood up tremblingly and patted Xiao Han on the shoulder: "Benefactor, you are very good! It's just that you make us look stupid."

On the way back to the village, the atmosphere was unusually silent.

When they passed by a bamboo forest, Jiang Nanying suddenly asked, "Um, do you still want the divine beast?"

"Yes!" Kara raised her hand immediately.

The village chief led everyone to a vast grassland outside the village.

The night wind blows gently, the grass waves roll, and in the distance you can vaguely see a few strange figures wandering in the moonlight.

"This is where we tame the mythical beasts." The village chief stroked his beard and finally showed a relaxed smile on his face.

"According to the agreement, each of you can choose one to take away."

Wanda's eyes were full of stars. "Are these all legendary beasts?"

Jiang Nanying nodded and pointed to the distance. "Over there is Emperor Jiang. He's shaped like a yellow sac, with six legs and four wings, and he's faceless. Although he looks strange, he's the most docile."

Kara couldn't wait to fly into the air, scanning the entire grassland with her super vision: "I see the phoenix! Over there!"

Following the direction she pointed, a crimson bird was perched on an ancient tree, its tail feathers gleaming with golden light.

Xiao Han's attention was attracted by a pitch-black strange beast.

It is shaped like a deer, covered with scales, with jade horns on its head, and emits a soft halo in the moonlight.

"That's the Black Qilin." The village chief explained, following his gaze.

"He has a noble character and only associates with powerful people."

Wanda suddenly let out a soft cry, and saw a golden ball rolling to her feet.

Looking closely, it was the six-legged, four-winged Dijiang, gently rubbing the hem of her skirt with its wings.

"It seems that it likes you very much." Jiang Nanying said with a smile.

After some selection, the three finally chose their respective pets.

Wanda chose the Dijiang that was close to her.

When her hand touched Dijiang, the chaos magic resonated wonderfully with the energy flowing around it.

Kara got the Fire Phoenix as she wished.

As she approached, the phoenix let out a clear cry and landed on her shoulder. The flames on its tail feathers blended perfectly with her bio-force field, without damaging her clothes at all.

Xiao Han slowly walked towards the Black Qilin. The proud beast was a little wary at first.

But after feeling the powerful energy in Xiao Han's body, she lowered her head and let him touch her jade horn.

The village chief watched this scene and nodded with satisfaction: "It's fate. In your hands, these beasts will surely unleash their true power."

Before leaving, the village chief bowed solemnly and said, "Taro Village will always remember your kindness. If you need anything in the future, we will definitely help you."

.........

Xiao Han raised his hand and lightly drew it, and a golden portal slowly opened on the grassland.

On the other side of the portal, blue waves crashed against the beach, and the familiar villas sparkled in the sun.

"Let's go home." Xiao Han gestured to Wanda and Kara.

Dijiang flapped his wings excitedly and rolled into the portal first like a golden ball.

Wanda shook her head and laughed, quickly catching up: "Slow down, be careful not to bump into anything!"

The phoenix on Kara's shoulder let out a clear cry, spread its wings and flew into the door, its tail feathers scattering sparks.

She quickly chased after him: "Hey! Don't set the curtains on fire!"

Xiao Han glanced at the black Qilin, which turned around gracefully beside him, seeming to be full of anticipation for the new environment.

He chuckled and finally stepped into the portal.

As the light faded, the three returned to the beach house with the divine beast.

"boom!"

As soon as I entered the door, I heard a collision sound coming from the living room.

I saw Dijiang bouncing around the room like a ball out of control.

It knocked over the fruit plate on the coffee table, bounced on the sofa, and finally stuck to the ceiling.

"Dijiang!" Wanda quickly used chaos magic to gently lift it down.

"Be quiet at home."

The little guy curled up his six paws in grievance, like a child who had done something wrong.

On the other side, the phoenix was standing on the chandelier, pecking at the crystal chandelier curiously.

Kara quickly flew over and picked it up: "You can't eat this! I'll find you something delicious."

Xiao Han looked at the black Qilin, which was observing the environment of the villa.

It looked around and finally chose a sunny corner and lay down quietly.
