After a brief exchange of glances, the two beasts understood each other’s thoughts.
To protect their beloved Sister Xiao Wu, they would not hesitate even if they were slaughtered to produce spirit rings and Soul Bones.
“Humans, this is not a place you should come to.
Retreat quickly, otherwise do not blame us for showing no mercy.” The Ox-headed Serpent issued an eviction order to Qian Xunji’s group, his voice infused with spirit power.
It hoped that such a display of might could scare Qian Xunji and the others away.
“Oh?
It’s been many years since I’ve seen a Spirit Beast that can speak human tongue.
This is quite interesting.” “That Great Ape, this old man will be your opponent.” Gold Crocodile Douluo, who hadn’t fought in a long time, felt his hands itching to move upon seeing the Great Ape’s massive build.
He couldn’t remember how long it had been since he last fought, not to mention that he had now reached the 99th-level Breakthrough.
A huge crocodile tail whipped out from behind him, smashing straight toward the Great Ape.
The latter didn’t have time to react before being slapped to the ground by Gold Crocodile Douluo’s tail.
Countless surrounding trees were crushed by the Great Ape’s massive body, and the birds and beasts in the jungle scattered in fear.
“Second Brother!” Seeing that his brother was completely outmatched, the Ox-headed Serpent grew anxious.
“Sister Xiao Wu, I will hold back these damned humans in a moment.
You run quickly!” Faced with her brother’s suggestion, Xiao Wu refused no matter what.
Having no other choice, the Ox-headed Serpent changed his phrasing.
“Sister Xiao Wu, the aura of every Titled Douluo present is stronger than mine and Er Ming’s.
If you aren’t here, we can still fight them on equal terms.
But if you stay, we’ll have to be distracted to protect you.” “The outcome of that would be all of us dying here in the end.” “Have you thought about what Aunt Rou will do if we all die?” Clearly, the Ox-headed Serpent’s words moved Xiao Wu slightly.
What he said made sense; her mother currently only had a cultivation level in the 80s.
Even with the protection of the rabbits in their Soft Bones Rabbit clan, in the eyes of other carnivorous Spirit Beasts over 50,000 years old, her mother A Rou was just a giant mobile supplement.
“Then…
alright.” Xiao Wu’s rabbit ears drooped.
Her pink rabbit eyes stared at the Great Ape fighting Gold Crocodile Douluo and the Ox-headed Serpent beside her.
“Da Ming, promise me, you and Er Ming must come back safely.” The Ox-headed Serpent responded to Xiao Wu with a bright smile, speaking in as steady a tone as possible.
“That is natural, Sister Xiao Wu.
Don’t worry, we’ll definitely be fine!” Having received a definite response, pink light gathered frantically on Xiao Wu’s body.
A great deal of pink spirit power condensed on her rabbit legs.
In the next second, her large rabbit body vanished from the spot.
She used the signature escape Spirit Ability of the Soft Bones Rabbit clan—Teleportation.
Seeing his Sister Xiao Wu move far away, the ferocity within the Ox-headed Serpent was completely triggered.
His ferocious pupils stared fixedly at the Spirit Hall experts present, and cyan-blue electric arcs gathered on the horns atop his head.
That was one of his ultimate techniques, the Sky Blue Silence Thunder!
At the same time, a blue Domain expanded around his body.
Everyone present felt their movements become sluggish.
“Second Brother, don’t hold back!
It won’t be that simple for these damned humans to get our spirit rings and Soul Bones!” “I know, Big Brother!” The Great Ape also responded to the Ox-headed Serpent’s actions.
He released his Gravity Domain!
The old shut-ins of the Enshrinement Hall felt the abnormality in their bodies and frowned one after another.
For experts of their Realm, such Domain effects were influential but not fatal.
However, this was miserable for Yue Guan and Gui Mei, who were only at level 90.
They currently felt as if a mountain were pressing down on them, unable to move an inch.
“Sigh, you two still need to train after we return.” Qian Xunji’s words made Yue Guan and Gui Mei’s faces turn blue and purple with embarrassment, yet they did not talk back.
Behind Qian Xunji, an angel phantom distinctly different from the Seraphim slowly emerged.
Aside from Gold Crocodile Douluo, who was fighting the Great Ape, the other Enshrinement Elders turned their heads curiously to look at Qian Xunji’s new Spirit.
“Second Spirit Ability—Divine Purification!” As the second special spirit ring beneath Qian Xunji’s feet flashed slightly, the surrounding Enshrinement experts, along with Yue Guan and Gui Mei, suddenly felt a wave of relief.
All negative effects vanished.
“Saint, the effect of your Spirit Ability is quite good.” The old geezers spoke up in praise.
Seeing that their negative effects were cleared yet they weren’t moving to fight, Qian Xunji asked in confusion.
“What are you still standing there for?
Why aren’t you going up for a just gang-up?” Unexpectedly, once Qian Xunji said this, the Enshrinement Elders all hemmed and hawed without speaking.
In the end, it was the most lively-tempered Light Feather Douluo who spoke up in response.
“Your Highness Saint, we are all Titled Douluo experts.
We cannot bring ourselves to do something like taking advantage of others’ peril.” This statement immediately left Qian Xunji speechless.
So they were all noble gentlemen, and only he, Qian Xunji, was the villain?
He felt that the old shut-ins in Spirit Hall were mostly influenced by that cheap father of his, obsessed with some ‘Way of the Gentleman’.
Look at those hammer-swinging boors next door; as long as something slightly displeases them, a group of them will just go up and swing their hammers!
Qian Xunji felt that if the moral baseline of these Elders in the original story had been as flexible as his, they might not have necessarily lost before the first Battle of Jialing Pass.
If all the high-level experts went out on a decapitation strike, what could a lone Sea God Tang San do in the end?
Setting aside whether the evil Asura God would resurrect him again, they just needed to deal with Xiao Wu, that Asura Sword Sheath who followed the Way of Death.
Dual Gods in One Body?
Keep dreaming!
“Uncles, now is not the time to care about this.
You must strike quickly, or there might be complications!” Qian Xunji was truly not joking.
For every extra minute they stayed, the chance of being detected by the Vicious Beasts below increased.
The Enshrinement Elders saw that Qian Xunji looked very serious and didn’t seem to be joking.
They all sighed silently in their hearts.
After all, before coming, they had guaranteed they would fully support all of Qian Xunji’s actions.
They glanced at each other and one by one activated their Spirits.
Blazing Lion, Light Feather Divine Bow, Coiling Dragon Rod…
Even Yue Guan and Gui Mei activated their Spirits.
