Chapter 42, Level 67
"Alright, Di Tian, I remember, isn't the Golden Deer King's two-hundred-thousand-year tribulation coming soon?"
Gu Yuena interrupted Huo Yuhao and Di Tian's eye contact.
For some reason, Gu Yuena felt that Huo Yuhao and Di Tian were very likely to fight. Although this feeling came about inexplicably, Gu Yuena decided to take precautions.
After hearing Gu Yuena's words, Di Tian also shifted his attention away from Huo Yuhao. For some reason, the more Di Tian looked at Huo Yuhao, the angrier he became, as if Huo Yuhao had stolen something important from him.
But this was clearly the first time I'd ever met Huo Yuhao, it was so inexplicable.
"Di Tian, I'm talking to you."
Gu Yuena's voice carried a hint of anger.
Di Tian finally came to his senses. Seeing that Gu Yuena was somewhat unhappy, Di Tian felt his heart was about to jump out of his chest. It was all Huo Yuhao's fault for making him neglect his master.
Di Tian immediately knelt on one knee: "Reporting to the Lord... Gu Yuena, the Light Deer King will reach her 200,000th Heavenly Tribulation in a thousand years, and with her strength, she simply cannot survive it!"
Looking at Di Tian kneeling in front of her, Gu Yuena's smile froze on the spot. She had repeatedly told him to be natural, and now that they were friends, Di Tian had given himself away.
"Ahem, Xiaoxue, well, actually..."
Gu Yuena's smile was a little unnatural; she was already thinking about how to fool Qian Renxue.
"Alright, Gu Yuena, stop talking. Actually, I already know."
Qian Renxue interrupted Gu Yuena, who looked up in surprise and met Qian Renxue's gaze.
Seeing Qian Renxue's wise appearance, Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, and Di Tian's eyes instantly focused on her.
Gu Yuena was clearly shocked by Qian Renxue's wisdom; her heart was filled with disbelief. She had never imagined that this seemingly silly little angel possessed such unfathomable wisdom.
Di Tian was clearly frightened by Qian Renxue's words. His master had just given him the secret order not to reveal his identity, but he hadn't expected to be exposed so quickly. He was really useless. His master must be very disappointed in him.
Huo Yuhao, standing to the side, seemed lost in thought, his eyes gleaming with contemplation. He was also aware of Qian Renxue's "wisdom," so Huo Yuhao ventured to deduce that what they were saying was probably not the same thing as what Qian Renxue was referring to.
"You...you really knew?"
Gu Yuena's voice carried a hint of uncertainty; her heart was filled with doubt.
"Actually, your friend Di Tian has incomplete intellectual development, which is why he behaves strangely like a child."
Qian Renxue's eyes flickered with sympathy for Di Tian.
Silence, a deathly silence, for a few seconds...
"puff..."
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Di Tian glared fiercely at Huo Yuhao. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot, as if water could drip from it.
"Alright, Xiaoxue, Di Tiancai isn't mentally challenged. He's only so respectful to me because I'm his boss."
Gu Yuena's voice carried a hint of helplessness.
What was I really thinking? Since I truly believed Qian Renxue could guess it, it seems I overestimated her.
As for the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in Huo Yuhao's mental space, it was already laughing so hard that tears were streaming down its face. Having been captured and absorbed by Di Tian for so long, seeing Di Tian suffer a setback now made the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm extremely happy.
Upon hearing Gu Yuena's words, Qian Renxue's face flushed red to her ears. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Di Tian's expression, and whispered, "Di Tian, I'm so sorry..."
Seeing Qian Renxue sincerely apologizing, Di Tian's expression softened considerably, but he still didn't give Huo Yuhao a kind look.
Huo Yuhao didn't care. After all, he had seen Di Tian's sour face many times before and had gotten used to it.
"Alright, Di Tian, let's go find the Golden Deer King now. The matter about soul spirits that I told you about before can be verified today."
Upon hearing Gu Yuena's words, Di Tian's expression also changed slightly.
Di Tian was very curious and longing about the Soul Spirit Technique that his master had mentioned to him before. After all, this thing might really be able to directly solve the current situation that their soul beasts were facing, being hunted by humans.
Along the way, Di Tian introduced Huo Yuhao to the situation of the Golden Deer King.
"This Golden Deer King is a soul beast with nearly 200,000 years of cultivation. It has extreme light attributes, which perfectly match your friend's martial soul."
When Qian Renxue's martial soul was mentioned, Di Tian clearly felt a trace of apprehension. After all, he had fought against the Angel God in the God Realm.
Listening to Huo Yuhao and Di Tian's conversation, Qian Renxue felt dizzy. She hadn't expected that she would be lucky to get an 80,000-year soul ring, but Huo Yuhao had directly arranged a 200,000-year soul ring for her.
To be honest, this was the first time Qian Renxue had ever heard of a spirit ring that lasted two hundred thousand years.
Of course, if Qian Renxue knew that Huo Yuhao's first spirit ring was from a million years later, she would probably be so shocked that she would be stunned.
...
The whole process went more smoothly than Huo Yuhao had imagined, because with Gu Yuena present, the Golden Deer King was almost completely unprepared.
After the soul ritual ended, a black and red soul ring appeared on Qian Renxue's body.
Huo Yuhao secretly sensed that the age of this spirit ring was estimated to be over 98,000 years.
This is also the limit of the soul rings that Qian Renxue can absorb at present. As for the remaining cultivation of more than 100,000 years, Huo Yuhao sealed it in Qian Renxue's body.
In addition, Qian Renxue also obtained a 200,000-year-old external soul bone. As for which part it was, Qian Renxue blushed and did not say.
It's worth mentioning that after acquiring this spirit ring, Qian Renxue's spirit power level jumped directly to level 67. Four levels of spirit power were directly provided by the spirit ring, two levels were provided by the spirit bone, and the remaining level was accumulated by Qian Renxue over the past two months, which was directly reflected in her spirit power level after acquiring her sixth spirit ring.
A golden miniature deer jumped out of Qian Renxue's body, affectionately rubbed against her fingers, and then knelt on one knee in the direction of Gu Yuena, excitedly saying, "My lord, I succeeded! I feel a wonderful state right now."
Seeing Gu Yuena's satisfied expression, Huo Yuhao smiled slightly: "See? I didn't lie to you, did I? Now, can our cooperation officially begin?"
Gu Yuena blinked and parted her lips slightly: "Of course we can begin. In the time to come, I will keep my promise and promote the Soul Spirit Cultivation Method to the Soul Beast World. I hope you can also keep your promise and promote it to the human world."
"Of course, it's possible, but the time it takes to promote to the human world may be delayed, at least a dozen years, until I truly sit on the throne of Pope."
Gu Yuena nodded, and then, to Huo Yuhao's astonishment, a piece of Life Gold the size of an apple appeared directly in Gu Yuena's hand.
"Consider this piece of living gold a gift from me. The old man in your spiritual sea seems to really need it."
