Chapter 115: Xiao Wu and Er Ming

Recently, Yun Feng's aura had become increasingly comforting. Although it was hard to put into words, Tang San felt a warmth emanating from it, even a motherly presence.

That kindred feeling couldn't be disguised, though Tang San didn't understand why it existed.

Despite the severe pain wracking his body, Tang San forced himself up from the ground. However, just as he steadied himself, he coughed up blood with a loud gasp.

The energy waves released from the Titan Giant Ape exuded an overwhelming sense of power. Even with Tang San's strong physique, the impact from these waves left his internal organs churning as if they had been displaced.

Fortunately, the Xuan Tian Gong had inherent healing properties. Without conscious effort, it quickly stabilized his turbulent blood flow.

Tang San silently pulled out a few sausages made by Oscar from his Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges pouch. He wanted to speak but ultimately remained silent.

Without hesitation, he swallowed the recovery sausage. Under its effects, his injuries eased somewhat.

However, Oscar's recovery sausage, being his first spirit ring skill, only provided basic healing and physical recovery. It couldn't instantly cure all injuries. Healing required time and the body's own recovery process.

Tang San wasn't concerned about these details at this moment.

Meanwhile, Zhao Wuji could no longer maintain his Martial Spirit Avatar. Returning to his human form, his face turned ashen.

"How could the Titan Giant Ape appear on the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest? It's my fault—I couldn't stop it from capturing Yun Feng and the others…"

No one believed those taken by the Titan Giant Ape had any chance of survival, not even Zhao Wuji.

The only conscious people left were Zhao Wuji and Tang San. Everyone else had fainted.

The King of the Forest, the Titan Giant Ape—its reputation was no joke! Even the combined strength of the Sky Dragon Snake duo and Zhao Wuji couldn't offer the slightest resistance against it.

This alone proved its terrifying might.

The Titan Giant Ape raced through the forest with incredible speed, as if it had memorized the entire terrain of the Star Dou Forest. No matter what obstacles lay ahead, it neither slowed nor collided with anything. Its massive body demonstrated astonishing agility, leaping hundreds of meters with each bound.

Despite the diverse number and types of spirit beasts in the forest, none dared block the path of this fearsome King of the Forest upon sensing its aura.

Even though the Titan Giant Ape wasn't a speed-focused spirit beast, its overwhelming power gave it terrifying speed. Within minutes, it had left the Dragon Duke Meng Shu and the Serpent Grandma Chao Tianxiang far behind, vanishing without a trace.

Yun Feng, held tightly in the Titan Giant Ape's grasp alongside the girls, spoke with a 'remorseful' expression:

"It's all my fault. I've dragged you all into this."

Hearing Yun Feng's words, though the girls were bound together, none of them blamed him. After all, if not for Yun Feng, they might have already been crushed to pieces.

In the current situation, there was no time for embarrassment. Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong's eyes were filled with fear, while Xiao Wu, though slightly calmer, was still visibly shaken.

After all, the situation had spiraled far beyond her expectations. She had no idea how to explain it now.

Even Yun Feng, though panicking inside, instinctively edged closer to Xiao Wu. Being near her felt like the safest place.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, recovering from their initial panic, noticed Yun Feng take a deep breath and speak:

"Don't worry. I just don't know where the Titan Giant Ape is taking us."

Zhu Zhuqing, accustomed to facing life-and-death crises, suppressed her fear and began thinking of escape plans. But no matter how much she thought, despair was all she found.

As Ning Rongrong opened her mouth to say something, she instead burst into tears.

Having grown up pampered, Ning Rongrong had never encountered such a terrifying situation. Even her Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa would likely be powerless here.

At this moment, Ning Rongrong regretted coming to the Star Dou Forest.

Seeing her tears, Yun Feng hesitated but eventually offered gentle comfort:

"It's okay, Rongrong. We're all here with you. We'll be fine."

Though Yun Feng's words were simple, they brought a hint of solace to Ning Rongrong. Her cries subsided into soft sobs, and she buried her head in Yun Feng's chest, trembling uncontrollably.

The Titan Giant Ape had captured Yun Feng and the four girls together.

Although Meng Yiran was scared, Yun Feng's earlier actions prompted her to say:

"It's not your fault. If it weren't for you, we'd have been crushed."

Yun Feng sighed. The situation had spiraled far beyond his expectations. Initially, he had thought the Titan Giant Ape would only target Xiao Wu. Now, it had taken all of them.

Yun Feng had even planned to use the time when Xiao Wu was captured to leave the group and hunt the Man-Faced Demon Spider, seizing Tang San's original opportunity.

But now, Yun Feng didn't know what to do.

He didn't even have the energy to appreciate the four beautiful bodies pressed against him. Though the sensation was undeniable, it was the least of his concerns.

As Yun Feng pondered the situation, a sudden surge of powerful spirit energy and a thunderous roar caused him and the others to lose consciousness.

Before blacking out, Yun Feng had one absurd thought: The Titan Giant Ape wouldn't just abandon us in the wild, right? This is the Star Dou Forest, after all!

Just before losing consciousness, Yun Feng left a mental instruction for Ah Yin in his mind: "Wake me up after the Titan Giant Ape leaves!"

When everyone had fainted, Xiao Wu spoke to the Titan Giant Ape:

"Er Ming, are they okay? You didn't harm them, did you?"

Hearing Xiao Wu, Er Ming shook his massive head and rumbled, "No, they're just unconscious. They'll be fine in a while."

After placing Yun Feng and the others on the ground, Xiao Wu inspected them and finally felt relieved.

Leaping onto Er Ming's shoulder with practiced ease, Xiao Wu asked, "Er Ming, why did you come looking for me this time?"
