Qian Renxue's smile was extremely sweet, her eyes narrowed into crescent slits.
Xiao Ying waved her hand in front of her, and seeing that Qian Renxue had no reaction, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide in shock.
"Miss, you couldn't have really fallen for him, right? It hasn't been that long." Xiao Ying's big eyes were filled with disbelief.
Although she also felt that Jiang Chen's earlier actions were too romantic and that even she had been moved, she believed her miss was the most perfect, so how could she like that detestable Holy Son so easily and so quickly?
Qian Renxue quickly pulled back her smile, a little flustered and a little dazed, as she said, "Do I?"
Xiao Ying nodded seriously, "Your expression just now looked exactly like those lovesick girls on the street in the throes of spring."
"You're the one in the throes of spring. Don't think I don't know what you do alone at night."
"Ah… Miss, how do you know?" Xiao Ying panicked and felt shy.
Qian Renxue raised her snow-white chin, "If you don't want others to know, don't do it yourself."
…
Early morning, Jiang Chen hummed an unknown tune and walked with light steps toward the dining hall.
For some reason, he was in a great mood.
"Xue'er, good morning." Seeing Qian Renxue and Xiao Ying sitting there eating breakfast, he quickly walked over.
He guessed that Xue'er might give him a moved kiss or shyly lower her head.
"Morning." Qian Renxue didn't even raise her head and said indifferently.
Uh… Jiang Chen's steps paused, and the enthusiastic smile on his face formed a sharp contrast with Qian Renxue's coldness.
Jiang Chen moved to sit opposite the two girls and probed, "Don't you have anything you want to say to me?"
"No."
"About the song last night, what do you feel about it?"
"I'm full." Qian Renxue stood up and walked out.
Xiao Ying grabbed an oil stick and a cup of soy milk, hurriedly following her. Before leaving, she stuck out her little tongue and gave Jiang Chen a gloating expression.
Qian Renxue suddenly stopped, turned back to look at Jiang Chen, and said, "Eat quickly. We'll be setting off soon."
Jiang Chen was very puzzled, unable to understand why Qian Renxue's attitude had become so cold.
Yesterday on the training field, he had clearly made her blush with endless shyness.
And last night, she had clearly been so moved that she almost wanted to offer herself to him.
How had it returned to square one overnight?
Jiang Chen really couldn't figure it out; women's hearts were too complicated.
In the end, he guessed that Qian Renxue was being reserved, and perhaps when they were alone together, she would turn into an obedient little kitten.
…
After breakfast, everyone was already fully prepared and ready to set off.
This time, they did not take carriages but traveled on foot.
Star Dou Great Forest was less than a hundred miles from the small town. At their speed, they could reach it before noon.
Riding horses would actually be much slower, and upon arrival, they would still need to leave people to look after the horses, which was quite troublesome.
One hour later, they finally arrived at Star Dou Great Forest.
It was quite lively outside the forest. They were not the earliest; many adventurers had already entered the forest.
Outside, there were also quite a few people still looking for temporary teammates.
Qian Renxue and Xiao Ying had already put on veils, which could reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Although they were not afraid of trouble, the most precious thing to them was time.
In a place like Star Dou Great Forest, where it eats people without spitting out bones, delicate and pretty big beauties were even more tempting than soul beasts.
The team did not stop and directly entered the forest, heading straight toward the depths.
Qian Renxue's target was the activity area of ten-thousand-year soul beasts.
As early as when she was at level fifty-nine, she had already begun preparing for her soul ring.
The Spirit Hall had trained a team of soul masters skilled in tracking and finding soul beasts. They usually lived in the mansion in that small town.
Several months ago, they had received orders to start searching for soul beasts for Qian Renxue.
They could be said to understand the habits of some soul beasts even better than the Master.
High-level soul beasts all had their own territories and would not easily migrate; their activity areas were also basically fixed.
As long as they found the soul beast Qian Renxue needed, they only needed to monitor it closely.
When soul masters entered Star Dou Great Forest, it was like sand falling into the sea.
Star Dou Great Forest was vast and boundless. Most soul masters were adventuring in the activity areas of the hundred-year soul beasts. The further inside, the fewer soul master teams there were.
At this moment, under the guidance of professionals, Qian Renxue and the others were purposefully advancing in one direction.
The professionals were clearly very familiar with the soul beast distribution along this route, occasionally detouring to avoid the territories of some powerful soul beasts.
Although there were Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo powerhouses in their team, they couldn't charge all the way through Star Dou Great Forest.
There were still two great kings inside Star Dou Great Forest. Even a Titled Douluo like the Ninth Elder would not dare to act recklessly here.
The professionals were not omnipotent either. They were only familiar with the soul beast distribution along this route, but they could not predict the soul beasts' movements.
At this time, Jiang Chen displayed his miraculous innate ability.
He was always able to predict in advance the powerful soul beasts hidden ahead.
Even the Ninth Elder was extremely surprised.
With his Titled Douluo strength, his spiritual power was incredibly powerful, but even he had difficulty detecting some soul beasts that were extremely skilled at concealment.
Yet Jiang Chen's perception was actually even sharper than his.
At first, everyone didn't believe it, but under Jiang Chen's indication, the Ninth Elder advanced alone, and sure enough, a ten-thousand-year soul beast that had been lurking for a long time jumped out ahead. Only then did everyone become sincerely convinced of Jiang Chen.
Qian Renxue's target soul beast this time was close to the eastern region of Star Dou Great Forest. They entered from the western side of Star Dou Great Forest and would almost have to cross the entire forest.
However, they avoided the core area of Star Dou Great Forest and only advanced through the activity areas of several ten-thousand-year soul beasts.
Two days later, they finally arrived at their destination.
The target Qian Renxue was hunting this time was a fifty-thousand-year soul beast, the Holy Light Lion.
Among the list of soul beasts she had drawn up, this type of soul beast ranked first.
This was the most suitable soul beast for her to absorb at level sixty. If there wasn't one, she could only settle for the next best and hunt another soul beast.
Jiang Chen was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that the soul beast Qian Renxue was hunting would be this extremely rare and scarce light-attribute soul beast.
The professionals had probably searched more than half of Star Dou Great Forest to find this one.
With the Ninth Elder present, heavily injuring a fifty-thousand-year soul beast was naturally not a problem.
Qian Renxue released her martial soul. The Holy Sword, burning with sacred flames, stabbed straight through the Holy Light Lion's head with one strike.
The guards formed a protective circle with Qian Renxue at the center, standing guard dozens of meters away.
They didn't dare to watch Qian Renxue absorb the soul ring. If they saw something they shouldn't, it would be bad.
A deep black soul ring floated out and landed on Qian Renxue.
Jiang Chen chuckled, dragged the Holy Light Lion, which was almost as tall as an elephant, to the side with one hand.
He released his zombie domain, covering the entire Holy Light Lion.
The bright red and scalding blood from the wound where Qian Renxue had pierced it was drawn out, spraying forth and entering Jiang Chen's open mouth.
Qian Renxue was immersed in absorbing the soul ring and did not see it.
Xiao Ying, who had been curiously watching Jiang Chen, now had a look of horror on her face, and her steps couldn't help but retreat.
His Highness the Holy Son was actually drinking blood, just like that, bloodily…
Xiao Ying felt fear in her heart, and her stomach churned uncomfortably.
The Holy Light Lion's body was enormous and had plenty of blood. The blood of a fifty-thousand-year soul beast already contained extremely vast essence energy, so Jiang Chen naturally wouldn't waste it.
Not only the blood, but even the essence energy contained in the Holy Light Lion's flesh was sucked out by him.
After sucking for more than ten minutes, the Holy Light Lion's corpse finally shriveled up, leaving only a layer of skin and fur wrapped around the bones inside.
The massive blood and flesh essence energy rampaged within Jiang Chen's body and was quickly absorbed by his physique.
"Burp~~" Jiang Chen couldn't help but burp. This time he had really eaten until he was a bit stuffed.
He turned his head to look at Xiao Ying, grinning with a smile. His scarlet lips and teeth made the little girl's face lose all color, and she stumbled backward.
"Don't come over… Don't eat me."
