Chapter 119 - Attention of the Heavenly Green Ox Python

Boom~

With the first shot when they met, the silver-scaled beast gathered silver light in its mouth and suddenly spat it toward Xu Mingxi and the others. A large silver beam swept through, leaving destruction in its wake.

"Mingxi, it seems like the two of us haven't fought side by side in a long time."

"Yes, let's get ready."

Although it was still daytime, both the sun and moon hung in the sky, stars sparkled, and the Star Domain unfolded. Xu Mingguang, who was just trying it out, felt a constant stream of energy flowing into his body. Seeing the stars around him, he was deeply shocked. He knew Xu Mingxi had a domain, but he had never experienced it himself, so he didn't know how much it could enhance a Star Crown Soul Master.

Moreover, due to the Star Power Fusion Method, the followers of the Star Crown Sect excelled in group combat. If the whole sect acted in unison, even the Thousand Dao Streams of the Spirit Hall would be in trouble.

"Brother Mingguang, stay focused—it's coming."

The sun in the star field seemed to connect with the one high in the sky, and blazing sunlight shot out from it, directly confronting the silver-scaled beast's attack.

They clashed, triggering a massive explosion of smoke and dust. The roar echoed through the clouds. In the distant Lake of Life, the green-maned bull's head slowly emerged from the surface.

The battlefield was too close to the Lake of Life, possibly affecting the adult soul beast absorbing the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm deeper below. The Azure Bull Python nodded to the Titan Giant Ape playing nearby.

The two beasts set out to investigate the humans causing such a disturbance. If it was indeed humans, they would be utterly annihilated.

At that moment, a soft, childish voice rang out, and a small pink figure leapt onto the Titan Giant Ape's shoulder. On closer look, her eyes held barely concealed hatred.

"I want to go too."

"No. Anyone who can make a noise like that clearly isn't weak. It's too dangerous for you."

"Yes, Xiao Wu, Da Ming and I can go. You stay here at the Lake of Life."

The Azure Bull Python noticed Xiao Wu's sullen expression, and a trace of frustration flashed in its large bull eyes. If only he and Er Ming had gone with Aunt Rou last time, Xiao Wu wouldn't have lost her mother.

Thinking of the female human with spider legs and evil aura, the Azure Bull Python couldn't suppress his murderous intent.

He coiled his tail and gently placed Xiao Wu, who had recently transformed into a human and awakened her martial spirit, into a cave beside the Lake of Life. The Titan Giant Ape understood at a glance and sealed the cave entrance with a large stone.

"Sister Xiaowu, forgive us. We'll let you out once we're back."

The two beasts left, while Xiao Wu desperately pounded on the stones blocking the cave. With Da Ming and Er Ming's protection, she would be safe, but if she continued like this, she would never reach adulthood, let alone get revenge on that woman.

The laws of the Douluo Continent dictated that after a soul beast became human, they had to interact with humans to break through to the Titled Douluo realm. If she stayed in the Star Dou Great Forest, she'd lose any chance at vengeance.

Suddenly, Xiao Wu seemed to remember something. She walked to the deepest part of the cave, laboriously moved a large rock, saw an open passage, and smiled triumphantly.

"I really am Sister Xiaowu. I never expected all that digging would pay off. If only Mom were still..."

Thinking of her mother, Xiao Wu's mood sank. She crawled out through the secret path, glanced at the battle site, and quietly left the Star Dou Great Forest in the opposite direction.

Although she looked about six years old, she was actually 100,000 years old. She had no idea how many of her own descendants now existed. She knew Ming was acting out of care, and if she went there, she might just get captured again.

If there were satellites in the sky, they'd see her heading toward Notting City. Unfortunately, Tang San and the Master weren't there—only spies planted by the Star Crown Sect.

The Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape sped through the forest. Before getting close, they saw the dazzling Star Domain, and then the huge figure of the Silver Scale Beast—clearly at a disadvantage.

Enveloped in psychedelic white mist, countless star chains bound the Silver Scale Beast, and starlight dots pierced it through the eyes from the ground.

A red Sunfire Cannon blasted downward, snapping the Silver Scale Beast out of its trance. But it was too late to dodge. It could only use the spiral horn on its head to take the full force of Xu Mingxi's all-out attack.

Under the Azure Bull Python's gaze, the Silver Scale Beast bled, its spiral horn broke, and its body ignited. It fell to the ground, helpless.

Shock flashed in the bull's eyes. He could tell the beast was at least 170,000 years old. Even if its bloodline was slightly inferior, its strength should have been comparable.

Now it had been defeated so easily by two humans. Even if he and Er Ming teamed up, they'd likely be seriously injured if they tried to fight these two.

This was hard for Da Ming to accept. The Silver Scale Beast was just a strange creature to them, but they also had a duty to protect the Lake of Life.

"Er Ming, let's go back."

"Huh? Okay."

The Azure Bull Python stared sharply at Xu Mingxi and Xu Mingguang flying in the sky, but because of their masks and black cloaks, he couldn't make out anything. So he turned around and returned to the Lake of Life.

A human woman had once come to kill Aunt Rou, and now two humans had come to kill the Silver Scale Beast. It was said that a 100,000-year-old silver-scaled beast had already been killed years ago. The Azure Bull Python felt a hint of fear when he did the math.

The 170,000-year-old Silver Scale Beast was considered a minor ruler in the Star Dou Great Forest—yet it had been so easily killed. Clearly, humans had grown far too powerful.

It takes tens of thousands of years for a 100,000-year soul beast to mature, yet now they were being hunted one after another. He had to report this to the soul beasts hidden deep in the heavens.

Xu Mingxi stood high in the sky, watching the massive Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape retreat into the distance. He sighed in relief.

He wasn't afraid of the two soul beasts, but he feared they would interrupt Xu Mingguang's absorption of the Silver Scale Beast's soul ring.

"Brother Mingguang, quickly absorb the soul ring. We'll leave right after."

"Alright."

Xu Mingguang raised his level-eight Soul Guidance Cannon and finished off the Silver Scale Beast. He sat cross-legged on the ground and pulled the 100,000-year soul ring down from the sky.

The Star Domain remained. Xu Mingxi stood in the air, scanning all directions to guard against soul beasts or humans disturbing Xu Mingguang.

Luckily, nothing happened. Xu Mingguang's handsome face twisted in pain for a moment, but he successfully absorbed the soul ring. The two of them stored the Silver Scale Beast's body in a soul storage guide and left immediately.
