The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan genuinely wanted to befriend Lantian now.
It was just a pity that Ning Fengzhi's thoughts held no importance to Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo didn't want to guess.
Anyway, if they messed around, he would just kill them.
"Ding."
Just as Dugu Bo was about to ignore Ning Fengzhi and return to Blue Silver City,
a not-so-weak soul power fluctuation came from the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest.
And his communication crystal reacted again.
"Poison Douluo, we've found a 100,000-year soul beast."
"Lord Lan Xiu is already fighting it."
Upon receiving the news, Dugu Bo instantly soared into the sky, nine soul rings shining, and a emerald green dragon soul flew towards the Star Dou Great Forest.
Several Soul Douluo followed closely behind.
"Let's go too."
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi glanced at Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo beside him, and followed along to join the excitement.
Suddenly, several auras above rank 95 were exposed.
In the distance, the terrain here had already changed, forming a small forest, where a giant Titan Giant Ape was completely enveloped, the large gorilla continuously tearing at branches and vines, causing destruction.
"Roar!"
Feeling the continuous auras rapidly approaching, the Titan Giant Ape, which had originally wanted to do more, abandoned its current target.
With an angry roar, its power fully erupted, breaking free from the numerous vines wrapped around its body, and it quickly sprinted away, the surrounding ground vibrating as if trampled by war.
Initially, the Titan Giant Ape seemed to be at a disadvantage, wrapped up like a zongzi, but now, in a hurry, it instantly broke free and fled.
Perhaps, this fellow was just pretending.
"Thick-skinned and tough, it's really not easy to deal with..."
The only person remaining at the scene was the emaciated and ancient Lan Xiu, who looked with a hint of emotion at the distant figure of the Titan Giant Ape.
In his life perception, further ahead, there were still auras, one, two, and even one underground, each a very dangerous presence.
This life perception was key to him finding the Titan Giant Ape before Dugu Bo.
The other party was faster than him and closer, but he had directly searched for the target and come here.
Now that he sensed other 100,000-year soul beasts, he naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble.
"Lord Lan Xiu."
With the battle over, several Soul Sages who had been secretly helping to relay messages also emerged.
As the Titan Giant Ape's figure disappeared over the horizon, Dugu Bo's figure had already landed.
"Lan Xiu..."
Dugu Bo naturally knew Lan Xiu, who often stayed at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
He also knew that the other party had already broken through.
"Don't chase it. There are other soul beasts over there. Don't create extra trouble."
Lan Xiu nodded, speaking to stop Dugu Bo, who still wanted to continue tracking, and looked at the things around him that he had pulled out of the battle's affected area.
Around him, many corpses remained, some relatively intact, most quite dismembered, including both soul beasts and soul masters. "Take the bodies back."
Although they couldn't kill or capture the 100,000-year soul beast, being able to retrieve the bodies meant their goal had been achieved.
Those that were more intact were fine, but whether the dismembered ones were useful depended on his Aunt Lan.
As for those too weak or already pulverized, even his Aunt Lan couldn't do anything.
"Were these bodies taken by them just now?"
"What do those beasts want with these bodies?"
Dugu Bo didn't continue tracking when he heard this, watching Lan Xiu pay attention to the bodies, thinking there might be some other problem.
He looked around, frowning slightly. He recognized a few of the people among them.
He had only met them a few times: two Soul Sages and one Soul Douluo, all completely lifeless.
Seeing people around him die like this also made him remember these soul beasts, vowing to make them pay for their blood debt.
"I don't know. There's no need to understand the thoughts of soul beasts so clearly. Anyway, just don't let them have their way."
"Are the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan with you?"
Although Lan Xiu had a guess in his heart, guessing was useless. Anyway, if soul beasts wanted something, they wouldn't give it to them.
He sensed the appearance of other presences and looked at Dugu Bo.
"Yes, who knows what they mean, like clingy followers. Just ignore them."
Dugu Bo had maintained this attitude towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan ever since the fight in the city.
It was just that Lantian hadn't given orders to do anything to them yet.
"The 100,000-year soul beast ran away again?"
While the two were talking, the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan finally arrived.
They acted as if they didn't see the bodies around them.
Their gazes turned to Lan Xiu, very curious. Was this old man also from Blue Silver City?
Looking at his martial soul, it didn't seem to be Blue Silver Grass, but it was some kind of plant-type martial soul with extremely strong vitality.
"May I ask who this is..."
Seeing the unfamiliar strong individual, Ning Fengzhi's face lit up with joy, and he intended to make his acquaintance.
"Lan Xiu."
"You're a step late, but the 100,000-year soul beast shouldn't have run far. If you're interested, you can go after it."
Lan Xiu didn't hide anything, introduced himself, and even encouraged them to pursue and kill the 100,000-year soul beast.
He glanced at Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo; both were Super Douluo and very strong.
But he wasn't too worried. With his vitality, it would be difficult to defeat them, but it was also impossible for him to be killed.
He was quite confident about that.
He had no intention of further communication either.
After speaking, he ignored the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and looked at the several Soul Sages beside him, helping to collect the bodies.
Soon, even the bodies were taken away, and they disappeared from the spot.
These sacrificed individuals were considered part of Blue Silver City's mid-level power.
As he moved, the other assisting personnel naturally quickly followed.
Dugu Bo even showed a hint of mockery as he left.
"Heh."
The group quickly departed, leaving Ning Fengzhi and the others looking at each other, feeling as if their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had lost face.
They weren't even interested in exchanging a few words.
"These guys really don't give face."
Ning Fengzhi was a bit helpless; it seemed he had a long and arduous journey ahead!
"Lan Xiu? Is he that old guy's son again?"
He even guessed Lan Xiu's identity, even wondering if he was Lantian's old father, but quickly dismissed the idea.
Although he looked old and was definitely a Titled Douluo, he didn't have the same oppressive feeling as Lantian, and compared to Lantian, he seemed a bit 'younger.' Dugu Bo's attitude was also different, not like his attitude towards Lantian.
"Let's go too. We don't know what those 100,000-year soul beasts are plotting."
"As for Blue Silver City, when they encounter real trouble, they'll beg us for help."
Bone Douluo seemed to see through space, observing from afar that a 100,000-year soul beast had stopped near the Star Dou Great Forest, as if observing them.
It was just that his perception wasn't like Lan Xiu's; he actually only saw the presence of the Titan Giant Ape.
It seemed to be provoking them, yet now that the 100,000-year soul beast was 'in front of them,' he had no intention of attacking.
It was even less likely that they would listen to Lan Xiu's words; they wouldn't be so kind as to deal with a 100,000-year soul beast.
"He's just a rank 93 Titled Douluo. Listen to old Bone, let's go. We can talk when we get back to the city..."
Sword Douluo trusted Bone Douluo's judgment and quickly pulled the others away, disappearing.
This operation allowed them to witness a new Titled Douluo from Blue Silver City, which could be considered a small gain.
Besides that, they also observed a 100,000-year soul beast, though only from a distance.
Figures came and went in a hurry, with no intention of approaching the Star Dou Great Forest.
This made the Titan Giant Ape, acting as bait, smash its fist into the ground, creating a large pit, and let out an angry roar.
"Cowards!"
"Da Ming, those guys aren't coming over."
"I should have listened to you just now. We should have gone together and dealt with them."
"We..."
The Titan Giant Ape looked at the disappearing figures, very displeased.
These guys had taken their Sister Xiao Wu, and it still wanted revenge.
It had originally wanted to lure a Titled Douluo into a chase and then eliminate them, but the person didn't take the bait.
Initially, it had tried to bait Dugu Bo, but when it noticed other Titled Douluo following, it temporarily gave up.
Later, it unexpectedly encountered Lan Xiu, who was chasing from another direction, and it tried to lure Lan Xiu over, only to almost get ambushed itself.
This could be considered a failed operation.
