Chapter 159: What a Big Bull Head!
After Bai Yu finished speaking, Gu Yuena nodded, waved her hand to open a spatial passage, and brought everyone directly to the Life Lake where Da Ming and Er Ming were located.
Once everyone had arrived, Gu Yuena turned to look at Bai Yu and said,
“Bai Yu, there are two 100,000-year Spirit Beasts here, the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape. After you record their spirit power routes, I will summon other Spirit Beasts.”
Hearing Gu Yuena’s words, Bai Yu readily agreed. His gaze then swept around, and he secretly thought, ‘What a magnificent forest spectacle.’
All around them, lush greenery abounded, with tall ancient trees boasting thick branches, and distant mountains reflecting in the scenery, dazzling the eyes.
In the open space ahead, a large lake came into view. The lake's surface was perfectly still, like a mirror.
Just as Bai Yu was admiring the lake, the Sky Azure Bull Python, which had been staying in the lake and never moving, sensed the presence of outsiders and slowly emerged from the water, breaking the calm surface of the lake.
“Tsk, what a big bull head!”
Bai Yu clicked his tongue in wonder, looking at the Sky Azure Bull Python, which had only shown its head.
The Sky Azure Bull Python, however, was a bit confused at the moment. Initially, when he sensed someone arriving, he thought it was a human who had stumbled in by mistake and planned to scare him away.
But after coming out and taking a look, he realized something was off. Two of the people who came here were adults from the Forbidden Land, whom he had seen before.
As for the other two, one was a human, and the other… Xiao Wu? She looked very similar, but why couldn't he sense her aura?
“Sky Azure Bull Python greets the two adults. Have the two adults come here to give orders?”
After Da Ming finished speaking, Zi Ji stepped forward and said,
“Hmm, yes, there’s something we need your help with. By the way, where’s that monkey? Call him over too.”
Da Ming blinked his bull eyes and carefully sensed Zi Ji. Only when he felt the fear from his own bloodline did he confidently let out a roar, calling for the Titan Giant Ape.
“Heh, you little snake, you’re quite cautious. Don’t worry, as long as you cooperate honestly, nothing will happen to you.”
Zi Ji chuckled. She wasn’t angry about the Sky Azure Bull Python’s probing. After all, he was guarding their gate, so being cautious was good.
The Sky Azure Bull Python lowered his head and remained silent. His actions just now were actually overstepping his bounds. He only hoped that the one from the Forbidden Land wouldn't blame him.
“Boom, boom…”
After a while, a series of footsteps, like an earthquake, rapidly approached from afar. Bai Yu turned his head and saw a giant black gorilla running towards them.
“Whoa, King Kong!”
Gu Yuena looked at Bai Yu with a strange expression. King Kong? What was that? Why did this guy always speak so strangely?
“Roar!”
“Hiss, stop yelling. You’re also a 100,000-year Spirit Beast. Don’t be like a monkey with no intelligence, only knowing how to yell.”
Er Ming’s loud roar made Zi Ji frown, and she shot him a disdainful glance.
Er Ming scratched his head, his large eyes scanning around, revealing a clear stupidity. He stammered,
“Two… adults, Big… Big Brother, is there… something?”
“This… Sister Xiao Wu? Is… is it really Sister Xiao Wu? You’re back…? Er Ming missed… missed you so much!”
Er Ming stammered these few sentences for a long time, making Bai Yu, Gu Yuena, and Zi Ji’s eyelids twitch incessantly.
Xiao Wu and Da Ming were also a bit embarrassed, one covering her face with her hand, and the other sinking his head into the water.
“Forget it, you’d better not speak. Just roar, but keep your voice down.”
“This time, I and the Master came here to ask for a small favor from you. Do you see the human over there? For the next two days, you will follow his instructions without any objections!”
As soon as Zi Ji finished speaking, Da Ming immediately raised his head, his eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty.
“This adult cannot do this. Humans are cunning and treacherous, and they covet our Spirit Beasts’ spirit rings and Spirit Bones. If we follow a human’s orders, wouldn’t that be seeking death?”
“Roar roar!”
Er Ming also roared twice, nodding in agreement.
Seeing the two gatekeepers daring to contradict her, Zi Ji’s eyebrows furrowed, and she was about to teach them a lesson.
At this moment, Gu Yuena also walked over, looking at Da Ming and Er Ming with calm eyes, and released her bloodline aura.
“This is my decision. You have no right to object. However, considering that you are thinking for the Spirit Beasts, I can explain it to you.”
“His name is Bai Yu, and he is my friend. He won’t do anything to you, so rest assured.”
“Yes, we obey!”
“Roar!”
Da Ming and Er Ming felt boundless fear at this moment. Gu Yuena’s aura made them unable to muster any resistance, so they could only quickly agree.
Gu Yuena nodded, then walked to Bai Yu’s side, raised her hand, and tapped his hand, leaving a silver mark.
“I’ve found the Spirit Beasts for you. They will obey your commands. Zi Ji and I will leave first. If you want to return to Heaven Dou City, or need to find new Spirit Beasts, just touch the mark on your hand, and I will come.”
Bai Yu chuckled and said,
“Heh heh, thank you. Since you and Zi Ji want to leave first, then go. I’ll find you if anything comes up.”
Gu Yuena waved her hand at Bai Yu, then walked into the spatial passage with Zi Ji, perhaps heading to Heaven Dou City or returning to the Life Lake.
“Phew, you scared me to death! Bai Yu, I really regret it now. How could I have been so foolish as to want to come to the Star Dou Great Forest with you?”
“Next time, no! No next time! I’ll never come out with you again! Otherwise, before anyone kills me, I’ll scare myself to death!”
As soon as Gu Yuena and Zi Ji left, Xiao Wu immediately went limp in Bai Yu’s arms, wailing incessantly.
When Gu Yuena released her aura just now, it affected not only Da Ming and Er Ming but the entire Star Dou Great Forest.
The jungle, which had been filled with continuous beast roars and insect chirps, seemed to have been paused, becoming utterly silent, and it hadn’t recovered even now.
Bai Yu held the boneless Xiao Wu, a smile appearing on his face.
“Hey, why are you so afraid of her? She won’t lay a hand on you, and besides, no matter what, I brought you here, so she has to give me some face.”
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes at Bai Yu, rested her head on his shoulder, and was too lazy to speak.
Could she just not be afraid if she wanted to? Those not born as Spirit Beasts could simply not imagine that extreme bloodline suppression, which was simply suffocating.
“Are you…? Sister Xiao Wu? Are you really Sister Xiao Wu?”
Da Ming heard Xiao Wu’s voice and sensed her again in confusion, but still found nothing, so he could only ask helplessly.
“Bang, bang, roar!”
Er Ming pounded his chest twice and roared, indicating, “Big Brother, your brain is broken, she is Sister Xiao Wu!”
One could only say that when Heaven closes one door, it opens another window. Although Er Ming’s intelligence was flawed, his intuition was absolutely accurate!
