The Titan Giant Ape charged fiercely, and Dragon Lord and Snake Witch felt a heavy unease in their hearts. As for Meng Yiran, she felt as if the sky was about to fall, extremely uncomfortable.
Dragon Lord didn't understand why, and there was no time to think about it, as the eight Soul Rings on his body burst into light, along with the dazzling dark green light from the dragon head walking stick in his hand.
Dragon Lord held the dragon head walking stick with both hands in front, the stick resembling a dragon body.
Boom!!
The Titan Giant Ape's fist smashed the walking stick. Even with the Sixth Soul Skill, Dragon Body Crutch, it was difficult to block. Dragon Lord was shocked, experiencing the terrifying strength of the Forest King, the Titan Giant Ape.
A rumbling thunderclap sounded, and Dragon Lord was directly pushed back. Snake Witch moved behind him but couldn't hold him, and they slid back ten meters before stopping.
Dragon Lord's chest ached, his blood surged, blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, and his face was extremely heavy.
Though beaten, Dragon Lord dared not be angry and respectfully asked, "Honorable King of the Forest, in what way have I offended you?"
"Roar!!"
The Titan Giant Ape didn't plan to say much to Dragon Lord. With a furious roar, it charged again.
Dragon Lord's expression was extremely grim. The appearance of the Forest King, the Titan Giant Ape, was unexpected and impossible, yet not only was it here, but it was also furious with him. Why exactly?
Knowing that words were useless, Dragon Lord exchanged a glance with Snake Witch, and both went all out.
Zhao Wuji, although also confused, considered this good news. He was ready to fight to the death, but the Titan Giant Ape ignored him.
Zhao Wuji shouted, "Let's run!"
Zhao Wuji picked up the Human-faced Demon Spider from the ground and slung the unconscious creature over his shoulder.
Ye Yu and the others quickly distanced themselves at the fastest speed, and after a thousand meters, Zhao Wuji called out, "Oscar, give everyone the Flying Mushroom Sausage."
Ye Yu said, "Make seven sticks, I don't need one."
Oscar nodded and quickly made seven Flying Mushroom Sausages. After Tang San and the others ate them, blue transparent and beautiful butterfly-like wings appeared on their backs.
The wings flapped, and Tang San and the others suddenly flew into the air, speeding through the skies with the wind hissing past their ears.
Ma Hongjun exclaimed, "Xiao Ao, your Third Soul Skill is indeed amazing, the flying speed is so fast!"
Ye Yu and Zhao Wuji didn't eat but flashed quickly on the ground at a speed not inferior to their flying companions.
In the short span of a minute, even though Ye Yu and the others had traveled 4,000 meters away, they could still hear the booming sounds of the battle, extremely loud, indicating a terrifying battle was taking place.
From such a distance, Ye Yu and the others could only hear the sound of battle, unable to hear the screams overshadowed by the booms.
Even with Dragon Lord and Snake Witch joining forces, they were no match for the Titan Giant Ape, experiencing its might as a top-level Soul Beast.
Unprovoked, the Titan Giant Ape attacked them, ignoring Zhao Wuji and the others, directly charging at them, now battered, bruised, vomiting blood, their bodies in pain, anger rising within them.
Dragon Lord and Snake Witch exchanged a glance, their dragon head and snake head walking sticks seemed to resonate, glowing more brightly.
Clearly, they intended to use their strongest move, the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which after use, would bestow power not weaker than a Titled Douluo.
The battle resumed, and after using the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, though the pressure lessened, they were still in great danger.
Boom boom boom boom boom...
Like a battle between Titled Douluo, everything within a kilometer was wiped out, leaving an open plain.
Meng Yiran had already moved a kilometer away but was still injured by the shockwaves, her delicate brows furrowed.
Meng Yiran was very worried, very anxious.
Earlier, with her grandfather there, she was extremely proud, feeling that in the depths of Xingdou Forest, she could walk with arrogance. Seeing her grandfather's prestige earlier, oppressing Ye Yu and the others, she also felt proud.
But now, her grandfather had lost his majesty, being hammered by the Forest King, the Titan Giant Ape.
Fiercely indignant, Meng Yiran exclaimed, "Why won't the Titan Giant Ape attack them, and instead attack my grandfather, damn it!"
Meng Yiran was highly unbalanced, watching anxiously from afar the earth-shattering battle a kilometer away, clutching her clothes tightly, nervous and helpless, knowing she could do nothing to help, staying away was best, not diverting her grandparents' attention.
Two minutes into the battle, Dragon Lord and Snake Witch were astonished as the Titan Giant Ape turned and ran madly in the direction Zhao Wuji and the others had fled.
Unable to react, Dragon Lord and Snake Witch sighed heavily, propping themselves on their walking sticks, kneeling on one knee, gasping for breath.
"Cough cough cough..."
Snake Witch, weaker against the Titan Giant Ape, naturally felt more pressure, coughed violently, spitting blood, her face pale.
"Old companion, are you alright?" Dragon Lord asked concernedly.
"I'm fine, I won't die, worry about yourself first."
Snake Witch knew Dragon Lord's injuries were heavier than hers. To her, it was strange how the Titan Giant Ape barely attacked her, focusing its blows on Dragon Lord.
Dragon Lord clutched his chest with one hand, pain evident in his face, gravely saying, "Truly the Titan Giant Ape, so strong, even after using the Martial Soul Fusion Skill we're no match."
Snake Witch nodded, "Yes, this Titan Giant Ape is definitely over 60,000 years old, so unlucky, why is it here? But it's a good thing it left suddenly, if the fight continued, we would have lost our lives here."
"Grandpa, Grandma!"
At this moment, Meng Yiran ran over worriedly.
Dragon Lord and Snake Witch stood up, saying, "Let's leave this part of Xingdou Forest and rest on the outskirts. Yiran, don't worry, your grandma and I won't die."
Meng Yiran asked, "Grandpa, did you drive away the Titan Giant Ape?"
Dragon Lord and Snake Witch exchanged a wry smile, "Even with the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, we were no match for the Titan Giant Ape. We don't know why it left so suddenly."
Despite the unanswered questions, since it left, there was no need to dwell, leaving quickly was imperative.
The three hastened out of the depths of Xingdou Forest.
Meng Yiran grumbled, "Those people got away with the Human-faced Demon Spider, but the Titan Giant Ape went after them."
Dragon Lord sighed, "They're likely doomed, such a pity, all of them are geniuses, especially that boy Ye Yu, an unprecedented demon, perhaps unrivaled in future generations."
Snake Witch also lamented, believing that even though Zhao Wuji and his group fled earlier by two minutes, they would certainly be caught. If she and Dragon Lord couldn't defeat it together, what could one Zhao Wuji do?
The anger on Meng Yiran's face faded, replaced by sympathy. Though her Soul Ring was taken twice, it was just displeasure, not animosity, and thinking of Ye Yu and the others in peril elicited sympathy.
Meanwhile, Ye Yu and the others were distancing themselves at full speed, but two and a half minutes later, Zhao Wuji's expression changed drastically.
Boom boom boom...
The ground shook with tremors, and Zhao Wuji knew the Titan Giant Ape was coming!
Zhao Wuji glanced back, the distance closing quickly, and he stopped abruptly, turning to face the Titan Giant Ape.
Ye Yu and the others also stopped collectively.
Zhao Wuji shouted, "Why are you stopping? Keep going!"
However, Ye Yu and the others couldn't leave Zhao Wuji alone.
Zhao Wuji unleashed his full strength, and the Titan Giant Ape charged aggressively, but suddenly, a cold gleam flashed deep in its eyes as it looked at Ye Yu.
"What's with this human? Why does he make me feel uneasy?"
At that moment, Ye Yu wasn't aware that the extreme malevolent aura hidden deep inside him was emitting a wisp!
