According to Lu Yuan's plan, only top-tier soul beasts like the Netherworld Purple Spirit Cat and the Ghostflame Howling Wind Tiger were worthy of Zhu Zhuqing.
Furthermore, top-tier soul beasts under the thousand-year level would be easily captured by Lu Yuan. With Lu Yuan's current strength, he could even hunt soul beasts under the thousand-year level, such as the Titan Giant Ape, alone.
His strength was just that strong!
"Let's go, Zhuqing!" After throwing the Netherworld Purple Spirit Cat to the side, Lu Yuan smiled at Zhu Zhuqing.
"En!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded and followed closely beside Lu Yuan. The two of them walked side by side.
In fact, if two people were in a team, especially if one of them was strong and the other was weak, the best way to advance was to walk side by side. This was because it was easier to take care of each other. With one at the front and one at the back, it was very likely that they wouldn't be able to save each other in time.
Lu Yuan held Zhu Zhuqing's small hand in one hand and the Astonishing Spear in the other.
Zhu Zhuqing's hand felt different from Hu Lena's. Hu Lena's hand was warm and blazing, but Zhu Zhuqing's hand was somewhat cold and slippery. It was more like a piece of moist, ice-cold jade. The feeling of holding it was very good.
Zhu Zhuqing was a little shy when Lu Yuan held her small hand. However, the feeling of being held by Lu Yuan's large hand was exceptionally strong and full, giving Zhu Zhuqing a great sense of security.
Looking at Lu Yuan's almost perfect side profile, Zhu Zhuqing was a little mesmerized.
Although Zhu Zhuqing had seen it many times over the past few days, and could even see it every morning when she woke up, she still didn't get tired of it. Zhu Zhuqing felt that she was about to be mesmerized by Lu Yuan's appearance.
Originally, Lu Yuan wanted to wear the mask again, but for some reason, Zhu Zhuqing didn't allow him to. Lu Yuan had no choice but to accommodate Zhu Zhuqing's wishes.
After all, she was his woman, and he had to pamper her.
Pushing aside the weeds in front of them, Lu Yuan pulled Zhu Zhuqing forward again.
It had to be said that this forest was indeed very big. Lu Yuan and Ye Zichen had walked for so long, but they still hadn't walked out of the forest. In fact, Lu Yuan estimated that they might have only walked less than half the distance.
The strength of the soul beasts in this forest wasn't ordinary, but perhaps because the people who entered the ruins were all under the age of twenty, the soul beasts here were mostly hundred or thousand years old. Other than the Dream Demon Fox, Lu Yuan hadn't encountered any other ten thousand year soul beasts.
But then again, a ten-thousand-year soulbeast was a fatal threat to anyone below the level of a Soul King. Even Lu Yuan would only be able to protect himself against a ten-thousand-year soulbeast, and it would be extremely difficult for him to kill one.
As for the Dream Demon Fox, that was a special case!
If there were too many ten-thousand-year soul beasts, the disparity in strength would be too great, and there wouldn't be any need to train. As one of the five Divine Kings, the Goddess of Life must have taken this into consideration.
Although Lu Yuan still believed that people who died in the ruins could be resurrected outside, this was only Lu Yuan's guess after all. Without actual evidence, Lu Yuan couldn't use his and Zhu Zhuqing's lives to prove this senseless conjecture.
Moreover, if they died, even if they were resurrected, it would mean that the treasures in the ruins were completely not fated with them. Lu Yuan naturally wouldn't do such a foolish thing.
Therefore, walking in this forest, Lu Yuan was still very careful, paying attention to the dangers that might come from all directions.
Pushing aside the weeds in front of them again, Lu Yuan's body suddenly paused, and his ears perked up slightly.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Zhuqing asked softly.
"There seems to be movement in front, it seems like someone is fighting!" Lu Yuan perked up his ears and listened to the faint sound. Lu Yuan made a simple judgment of the situation in front of them!
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing also became vigilant. She firmly believed in Lu Yuan's judgment!
"It's okay, don't be afraid. It's still very far from us, let's go up and take a look first!" Lu Yuan comforted Zhu Zhuqing and said softly to her.
As he spoke, he picked up his mask and put it on. It didn't matter if it was only Zhu Zhuqing, but if they might meet other people, then it was still necessary to keep it a secret.
Zhu Zhuqing saw Lu Yuan's action of putting on the mask, but she didn't stop him. She believed that Lu Yuan had his own reasons for doing so.
"Let's go, Zhuqing!" Lu Yuan pulled Zhu Zhuqing's lily-white hand and slowly moved forward.
After walking for about five hundred meters, the current situation of the battle came into view.
In the field, a thirteen or fourteen year old male wearing white clothes was fighting with a four meter long blood-red python. Lu Yuan recognized this python. It was a Scarlet Flame Python, and among snake-type soul beasts, it was probably on the same level as the Mandala Snake.
The Scarlet Flame Python in front of them clearly had a cultivation of a thousand years, because its four meter long body was a sign that it had entered the thousand year realm.
The white-clothed youth opposite it was holding a guqin that was overflowing with light and color. What was strange was that ordinary guqins had seven strings, but the one in this youth's hands only had six.
This youth's cultivation wasn't low. Three yellow, yellow, and purple soul rings rippled beneath his body. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he had actually broken through to become a Soul Elder. This was another genius.
Lu Yuan also felt that this person was somewhat familiar, because this youth was the one who had discovered Lu Yuan's soulforce fluctuations in the Zither Sect.
"It's him?" Lu Yuan muttered softly.
"He's the Zither Sect's Zither Fu Sheng!" Zhu Zhuqing's voice carried a trace of surprise.
"What, Zhuqing, you know him?" Lu Yuan looked at Zhu Zhuqing curiously.
"En!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded and said, "He's the junior sect master of the Zither Sect, Zither Fu Sheng. I've met him once before. I think it was at a banquet, but I can't remember exactly which banquet it was!"
"The junior sect master of the Zither Sect?" Lu Yuan said softly, "I have a bit of an impression of this sect. Their martial soul is a tool soul called the Lightstream Zither. They're good at spiritual control, but they're somewhat lacking in offensive power. This sect's strength should be second only to the lower four sects, and it's precisely because their martial soul lacks offensive power that they haven't been able to enter the ranks of the lower four sects.
"However, this Zither Fu Sheng's martial soul's offensive power isn't weak. That Soundwave Blade's offensive soul skill is actually quite powerful. It's definitely not inferior to the soul skills of other assault-type soul masters. Furthermore, his martial soul only has six strings. Perhaps his martial soul has mutated!
"From the looks of it, he doesn't seem to be a control-type soul master. He's more like a half-control-half-attack type!" Lu Yuan rubbed his chin as he watched Zither Fu's Soundwave Blade add another wound to the Scarlet Flame Python's body.
"En!" Seeing Lu Yuan habitually analyze Zither Fu, Zhu Zhuqing looked at the situation and asked, "Do we need to make a move?"
Lu Yuan tapped his chin and asked, "Zhuqing, you're from the Star Luo Empire. Do you know what the relationship between the Zither Sect and the Star Luo Imperial Family is?"
