Just as Yu Heng killed the Crypt Demon Wolf, spots of black light surged out of the latter's body and formed a ring.
Seeing the soul ring appear, Yu Heng immediately raised his right hand and absorbed the soul ring with ease.
"Senior, I'm Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's elder, Yu Heng. We're indebted to you this time. If you run into any trouble in the future, you can use this token to come to our sect. Our sect will do our best to help. "
After successfully absorbing the soul ring, Yu Heng took out a jade token with a Tyrant Dragon engraved on it and passed it to Chu Bei.
"The same goes for the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect!"
Ning Feng also bowed to Chu Bei with his sect's disciples and handed over a pagoda-shaped token.
Before I acted, I said that I'm a businessman. After I've helped you resolve your crisis, you have to take care of my business.
Chu Bei brushed away Yu Heng and Ning Feng's tokens and smiled.
Hearing this, Yu Heng and Ning Feng looked at each other and then at Chu Bei. They asked in confusion, "Senior, what are you selling? How do you need us to take care of your business? "
Chu Bei swept his gaze across the two of them and waved his right hand.
Buzz — —
The void trembled, and a ripple appeared.
A golden disk appeared from the ripples and emitted a blinding light.
The light dissipated and one could see that the disk was divided into ten regions. Each region flickered with a square box of a different color.
There was a silver pointer on the disk and there were seven words engraved at the top.
[Rank 5 Wheel of Fortune]
"This … this …"
Yu Heng and Ning Feng's pupils shrank as they looked at the wheel that appeared out of thin air and floated in the air. While they were shocked, they sized up Chu Bei again.
However, after some observation, they didn't see anything similar to a storage-type soul tool on him.
"This wheel will spin for five hundred thousand soul coins. Each of you can spin it once."
Chu Bei pointed at the wheel as his gaze swept successively past Yu Heng and Ning Feng before he spoke indifferently.
One million soul coins was the remaining amount he could sell today.
"Five hundred thousand soul coins for a box? Is there anything inside? "
While Yu Heng and Ning Feng were confused, they each took out five hundred thousand soul coins.
Their lives were worth far more than 500,000. In their eyes, this was a way to repay Chu Bei.
Buzz —
A whirlpool appeared in the center of the disc and swallowed one million soul coins.
[The system has gained 10000 willpower points. The host has gained 5000 willpower points.]
The sound of the system rang out, and the silver needle on the disc spun.
Ding!
About ten seconds later, the two square boxes flew in front of Yu Heng and Ning Feng.
Rumble!
With two loud noises, the square box exploded.
The words "Thank you for your patronage" were dazzling on the square box in front of Yu Heng.
Yu Heng shook his head when he saw this outcome, but he wasn't angry. After all, he'd taken this 500,000 RMB as a reward for the other party.
As for the square box in front of Ning Feng, after the explosion, there was a bottle of blue liquid with blue mist lingering around the mouth of the bottle.
"Senior, what is this?" Ning Feng pointed at the blue liquid and looked at Chu Bei in confusion.
"You'll know after you drink it." Chu Bei smiled.
Meeting Chu Bei's gaze, Ning Feng hesitated for a moment before swallowing the blue liquid.
He was originally saved by the other party from the demon wolf. If the other party wanted to harm him, there was no need for him to go through so much trouble.
Bang!
Just as Ning Feng swallowed the blue liquid, a low muffled sound came from his body.
Immediately after, his entire body lit up with a faint silver light. Immediately after, four soul rings lit up on his body. Two yellow and two purple, representing two hundred year soul rings and two thousand year soul rings.
"Senior, what happened to Brother Ning?"
Yu Heng pointed at Ning Feng whose body was acting strangely. However, just as he finished speaking, he seemed to have discovered the latter's change. He was startled and a touch of shock surged onto his face.
Ning Feng's first yellow soul ring, which was originally only a hundred year soul ring, began to turn purple. After it turned purple, it continued to change and finally turned black.
"Look quickly! Elder Ning's first soul ring changed from a hundred year to a ten thousand year soul ring! "
"Heavens! There's actually such a miraculous thing! "
"Is it because of the blue liquid that Elder Ning just drank?"
"What exactly is that thing?"
… …
Witnessing Ning Feng's first soul ring change from yellow to black, the disciples of the two sects were dumbfounded with shock written all over their faces.
They never thought that a soul ring could increase in age at a later stage!
This scene had completely shattered their understanding of the world!
"Senior, this … this …"
Looking at his first soul ring that turned black, Ning Feng was so excited that he found it hard to add on. He stared at Chu Bei in disbelief and was momentarily speechless.
"The liquid you just drank is called Beast Soul Medicine. It can increase the age of a soul ring." Chu Bei briefly explained the effects of the blue liquid.
"Senior, do you still have this medicine? I can spend money to buy it. "Yu Heng hurriedly went forward with a face full of desire. He glanced at Ning Feng from time to time with a face full of envy.
Only now did he understand that this was really a transaction and could even be said to be a benefit. It was just that his luck was too bad and he didn't get it.
"If we are fated, let's make another transaction next time." Chu Bei shook his head.
Rumble!
Just as the disciples of the two sects were still immersed in Ning Feng's soul ring that had increased in age, the ground suddenly trembled as if an earthquake had occurred. All the birds in the forest flew up.
Following this, the sound of a little girl crying came from the forest in the north.
Very quickly, this crying little girl appeared in everyone's line of sight.
The little girl was about five or six years old and wore a white dress. Her long black hair was combed into a scorpion braid that fell past her hips. Her pretty little face was white with a tinge of red, and her pink and tender appearance was like a ripe peach that made people have the urge to take a bite.
However, those big watery eyes that were red from crying couldn't help but make people feel pity for her and want to hug her and comfort her.
Looking at the little girl who appeared, Chu Bei smiled knowingly and revealed a playful expression.
This little girl was the target of his trip.
Judging from the markings on the map, the little girl was already in the vicinity before he arrived.
It could even be said that she had witnessed the entire battle between Yu Heng, Ning Feng, and the Crypt Demon Wolf.
"What did this little girl go through? She's crying so pitifully. Why is she alone in the Great Star Dou Forest?"
The disciples of the two sects looked at the little girl with sympathy in their eyes.
"Please save me … wuwuwu … save me …"
The little girl cried as she ran towards the people of the two sects, begging for help.
"Little girl, don't be afraid. Tell us, who is it that wants to hurt you? "
Yu Heng waved at the little girl. Just as he spoke to comfort her, two tall trees behind the little girl were suddenly snapped, and an enormous figure appeared.
When they saw the big fellow's appearance, everyone from the two sects, including Yu Heng and Ning Feng, was stunned and their breathing seemed to stop.
It was an existence that was like a small mountain. The black fur on its entire body flickered with a faint luster under the sunlight. Even though it was on all fours, its shoulder height was definitely over seven meters. If it stood upright, its height would probably be over fifteen meters.
From the outside, its entire body was pitch-black, like an ape or a chimpanzee. Its pair of lantern-sized eyes flickered with the luster of topaz.
Other than its enormous body, every part of its body was covered with terrifyingly strong muscles that were even more terrifying than granite. It was filled with a sense of strength.
It was this enormous creature that was chasing the little girl.
"That's the king of the forest, the Titan Giant Ape!"
Yu Heng and Ning Feng exchanged a glance again, and after confirming that they weren't hallucinating, they let loose a trembling cry.
"Boss, is the Titan Giant Ape that powerful?"
Yu Heng's cry of surprise sounded, and Oscar appraised the gargantuan creature up ahead before turning to Chu Bei.
"No matter where the Titan Giant Ape appears in the Soulbeast Forest, it's an absolute overlord.
They possess unparalleled strength and speed, and their attacks and defenses are virtually flawless. Even a hundred-year Titan Giant Ape can contend with a ten-thousand-year soul beast. "
After that, Chu Bei continued to appraise the Titan Giant Ape and fell into deep thought.
He was thinking about how he was going to cooperate with this gargantuan creature and the little girl's performance.
With his omniscient view, he was naturally aware of the relationship between Xiao Wu and Er Ming.
Er Ming was currently chasing Xiao Wu so that Xiao Wu would be able to blend into the human race more easily.
"Esteemed King of the Forest, she's still a child; please let her go. If this is your territory, we're willing to take her away from here right away. "
Sure enough, Yu Heng immediately stepped forward and caught the stumbling little girl in his arms before extending a respectful bow toward the Titan Giant Ape.
They truly couldn't imagine why the king of the forest, who lived in the core region of the Great Star Dou Forest, would appear here and chase after a frail little girl.
According to the information that he had gathered, there was only one Titan Giant Ape in the Great Star Dou Forest, and it had already cultivated for over 80,000 years.
It was quite clear that this was the Titan Giant Ape that was over 80,000 years old.
The Titan Giant Ape glanced at Yu Heng with disdain in its eyes. It harrumphed coldly, and several cracks appeared on the ground beneath its feet.
In the next instant, the Titan Giant Ape rose into the air and instantly appeared in the air above Yu Heng.
Compared to the gargantuan body of the Titan Giant Ape, Yu Heng appeared extremely tiny and insignificant.
Rumble!
The terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from the Titan Giant Ape's body created a deafening sonic boom in the air.
Yu Heng's pupils constricted upon sensing the fearsome aura emanating from above, and he couldn't muster up any resistance.
"Elder, be careful!"
The disciples of the Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect immediately screamed. Their voices were filled with anxiety and worry, and their hearts were in their throats.
Although Yu Heng had successfully absorbed the soul ring of the demon wolf and become a Soul King, he was still far from enough in front of the king of the forest, who had over 80,000 years of cultivation.
Wu wu — —
The Titan Giant Ape roared into the sky, and frightening soundwaves spread as its powerful claws swiped towards Yu Heng.
Yu Heng's face was ashen as he watched the claws come closer and closer, and sensed the frightening energy fluctuations contained within them.
He didn't expect the king of the forest to be so cruel and domineering.
However, just as the Titan Giant Ape's sharp claws were about to land on Yu Heng's head, he seemed to be struck by an invisible force.
With a boom, he was sent flying and crashed heavily onto the ground.
Following this, the Titan Giant Ape let out a mournful howl. It looked fearfully in Chu Bei's direction before it turned and ran into the depths of the forest. Its howl was filled with indignation.
"What's going on?!"
"What just happened?!"
"Why did the Titan Giant Ape suddenly run away?"
"Didn't you see that it was sent flying?"
"Was it that senior who did it?"
"It must be him! Didn't you see the fearful eyes of the Titan Giant Ape when it was running away? "
"Could it really be the king of the forest with 80,000 years of cultivation? Isn't it a little too cowardly to run away just like that? "
"No, it must be that senior is too strong!"
… …
Witnessing this scene, the eyes of the disciples from the two sects all focused on Chu Bei. Other than shock, there was also deep respect and worship.
"Thank you for saving me again, senior!"
Yu Heng, who had just escaped from the gates of hell, quickly walked to Chu Bei after coming back to his senses. He cupped his fists and bowed deeply.
Clearly, in his opinion, he also believed that it was Chu Bei who saved him just now.
Chu Bei glanced at the little girl in Yu Heng's arms, then looked in the direction the Titan Giant Ape left in, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
From beginning to end, he hadn't done anything at all!
This had all been an act directed by Er Ming. In particular, the fearful expression in the Titan Giant Ape's eyes as it left was far too vivid.
Even Chu Bei had thought that he really had attacked the Titan Giant Ape.
Of course, Chu Bei didn't expose him. Instead, he gladly accepted Yu Heng's gratitude.
"Little girl, why were you being chased by that Titan Giant Ape?" Ning Feng asked as he made his way over to Yu Heng.
"I'm an orphan, and I've been living with my grandfather ever since I was a child. He brought me here to absorb a soul ring, but I didn't think that I would accidentally enter that giant ape's territory … Waah … "
The little girl began to sob loudly as she spoke, and her sobs evoked sympathy in everyone's hearts.
When they heard this, Yu Heng, Ning Feng, and the others guessed what happened next. Her grandfather had definitely been killed by the Titan Gargantuan Ape. This little girl had been lucky enough to stumble into this place and be saved.
"Do you have anywhere else to go, little girl?" Yu Heng asked as he appraised the little girl with a sympathetic expression.
The little girl's eyes were red, and she shook her head as she sobbed.
"In that case, how about you become my disciple?" Yu Heng asked as he patted the little girl's head.
A wisp of imperceptible pride quickly flashed through the little girl's eyes when she heard this. Then she pretended to lightly bite her lips and obediently nodded before weakly calling out to Yu Heng, "Master."
"Little girl, I think you should follow me from now on."
As soon as the little girl's voice trailed off, Chu Bei's smiling voice rang out as he strode over to the little girl.
"I don't want to."
A hint of caution appeared in the little girl's eyes at the sight of the teasing look in Chu Bei's eyes, and she said, "I don't want to follow you."
"Er..."
"What do you think, Senior?"
Yu Heng turned to Chu Bei with a conflicted expression upon hearing this.
"Little fellow, if you want to avenge your mother, the best choice is to follow me." Chu Bei lowered his head and looked at the little girl with a smile on his face.
