"Where should we go next?"
Faced with Gu Yuena's question, Victor didn't rush to answer.
He spread out his spiritual sense, instantly covering the entire Sunset Forest in a sweeping mental scan. Within moments, he discovered a volcanic area near the forest's center, brimming with spiritual energy but completely surrounded by poisonous barriers.
The medicine garden. Finally found it.
"Follow me, this way!" Victor's form blurred into a stream of light as he flew toward the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Gu Yuena hurried to follow.
However, when they were halfway through their flight, Victor suddenly stopped and turned to look in another direction.
Seeing this, Gu Yuena also hurriedly braked, nearly colliding with Victor from behind.
She tilted her head and looked at him in confusion. "What's wrong?"
"It looks like someone over there needs help."
Victor's answer made Gu Yuena slightly stunned, surprise flickering across her face.
"You want to help those people?"
In fact, she had also noticed the situation in that direction, but she didn't care much about it. What did the life and death of strangers have to do with her?
"Of course. I'll help when I see trouble."
Victor didn't think he was a saint, but he didn't think he was a bad person either. If they were enemies, he would never show mercy. But if he encountered someone who needed help, he didn't mind lending a hand.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the other party wanted his help.
After saying this, Victor flew in the indicated direction.
"Roar!"
"Ah!"
"Hold the formation and protect His Highness the Crown Prince and Her Highness the Princess!"
On a relatively open plain, a group of soldiers wearing armor and holding standard-issue weapons were fighting desperately against a giant python more than thirty meters long.
Behind the soldiers, in a luxurious carriage that had a broken tow rope and could no longer move, a young man and woman watched the scene nervously.
The young man was handsome with a gentle bearing, while the young woman was cute with a well-proportioned figure. Both exuded a noble temperament that spoke of royal bloodlines.
"Damn it, we're not even close to the center yet. How did we run into a sixty-thousand-year-old Green Scaled Python?"
The young man frowned, thinking his luck was terrible today.
"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have brought Xue Ke here to hunt soul beasts."
"Young master, do you need me to help you?"
At this moment, a voice appeared in the man's mind. Transmitting sound directly through spiritual power was something only a Titled Douluo could accomplish.
The man seemed extremely calm at this sudden voice, as if he had expected it.
Looking at the guards who had suffered heavy casualties and were about to be wiped out, the man hesitated.
If the person hiding in the shadows were to take action, the crisis would be easily resolved. But how would he explain it afterward? What if someone grew suspicious and his identity was exposed?
After lurking for so long, he didn't want all his previous efforts to go to waste because of a small accident.
The man in the shadows seemed to have sensed what the young prince was thinking and immediately gave a suggestion. "Afterward, I will pretend that I just happened to pass by here. When I saw you needed help, I decided to lend a hand."
This was indeed a good method.
Thinking of this, the man was about to agree.
But at this moment, two beams of light suddenly flew over from the distance.
The light was flowing so fast that it crossed several kilometers and arrived above everyone's heads in the blink of an eye.
When the light faded, it revealed two young people who did not look ordinary at all.
So handsome! So beautiful!
Seeing the two people's appearance clearly, everyone present was amazed by their looks. The only one that was not affected was the Green Scaled Python.
However, upon noticing the two people above its head, the Green Scaled Python did not act rashly. Instead, it quickly retreated and kept its distance.
As a soul beast that was more than ten thousand years old, it had already awakened its spiritual intelligence. It knew that humans who could fly were the strongest among humans, and their strength was probably not inferior to its own.
It had some confidence in fighting one, but against two? It would definitely be the loser.
"Do you want to do it yourself or should I do it?" Victor asked Gu Yuena.
After all, the soul beasts were Gu Yuena's people, and Gu Yuena was a member of the group. Before taking action, Victor was willing to give her face.
"Let me do it."
Gu Yuena took a step forward and released her own aura as the Silver Dragon King. The giant Green Scaled Python was instantly pressed to the ground by the overwhelming pressure.
"Since it is not easy for you to cultivate, leave this place immediately, or you will die."
Upon hearing this, the Green Scaled Python nodded, turned around, and quickly fled into the depths of the Sunset Forest.
Seeing this, both the people hiding in the shadows, the soldiers, and the young man and woman being protected were all shocked.
She actually scared away a sixty-thousand-year-old giant Green Scaled Python with just one sentence!
Who was she?
The young man soon reacted, stepped out of the carriage, and bowed to Victor and Gu Yuena in the sky. "I am Xue Qinghe. Thank you both, seniors, for your help!"
Xue Qinghe?
Hearing this name, Victor couldn't help but look at the man below for a second longer.
This one glance directly saw through Qinghe's disguise.
In Victor's eyes, Qinghe was no longer a handsome young man, but a young woman with long golden hair, skin whiter than snow, and a stunning face.
Qian Renxue.
This was the person's real name. She was the daughter of Bibi Dong, the current Pope of Spirit Hall.
He never thought that he would meet this golden-haired little angel just by saving someone.
So, the middle-aged man hiding in the shadows should be the Titled Douluo sent by Spirit Hall to protect her, right?
In that case, his actions were unnecessary. With that Titled Douluo here, even if he and Gu Yuena hadn't shown up, the people below shouldn't have been in any danger.
Thinking of this, Victor gave up the idea of pulling out the Titled Douluo from the shadows.
He nodded, retracted his gaze, and said to Gu Yuena, "Let's continue on our way."
"Mm."
The two turned into streams of light again and continued flying toward the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Renxue couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when she saw this. She had originally wanted to ask her benefactors' names, but they didn't even want to communicate with her.
"Young master, it is not suitable to stay here for long. You should take everyone and leave quickly."
The familiar voice sounded in her mind again.
Renxue nodded and ordered a retreat.
"Grandfather Ci Xue, do you know the identities of the two people just now?"
"I'm sorry, young master. I don't know who they are, but the strength of those two people is very terrifying. Just now I could feel that I was locked onto by them."
"They exude a subtle pressure that even the great priest is far inferior to!"
The answer from Ci Xue made Renxue's pupils shrink sharply.
The chief priest was her grandfather, the ninety-ninth level Peerless Douluo who was known as invincible in the sky, Qian Daoliu!
Even worse than her own grandfather?
How terrifying were the strengths of these two people?
She did not doubt what Ci Xue said. After all, the woman just now had scared away a sixty-thousand-year-old Green Scaled Python with just one sentence. Even ordinary Titled Douluo couldn't have such deterrent power.
The soul beasts' perception of the strong far exceeded that of humans. This showed that the woman's strength was definitely far beyond that of an ordinary Titled Douluo.
"Grandfather Ci Xue, when you go back, please have someone collect information about those two people, and report what you saw and heard today back to Spirit Hall."
"Yes, young master."
