38: Go to Sunset Forest

After ending his meditation, Dai Mubai looked at his level 55 soul power and couldn't help but feel a little worried. Almost half a year had passed, and he had only just managed to break through one level of soul power this month.

Dai Mubai comforted himself that he currently possessed a twin God Level Martial Soul, and then he felt relieved. So, Dai Mubai prepared the things for their departure.

This time, Dai Mubai planned to visit the Old Poison, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, and also help Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Zhu Zhuqing obtain their fourth soul rings.

Thinking of that girl Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai couldn't help but feel a little relieved. The day before yesterday, after both Ma Hongjun and Oscar broke through to level forty,

Zhu Zhuqing said she didn't want to be separated from him for so long again, feeling that she was about to break through and wanted to go with him. Dai Mubai had originally planned to wait a few days to comfort Zhu Zhuqing before taking the two of them to obtain soul rings, but unexpectedly, Zhu Zhuqing broke through to level forty yesterday afternoon.

As soon as Dai Mubai went out, he saw the three of them. Ma Hongjun was the first to come forward and asked with confusion.

"Dai Laoda, why are we going all the way around to Sunset Forest to get soul rings this time?"

"To see an old friend."

After Zhu Zhuqing broke through to level forty yesterday, Dai Mubai temporarily announced that he would take the three of them to Sunset Forest to obtain soul rings, and then he left after leaving that sentence.

So, when he saw Ma Hongjun's persistent questioning attitude early in the morning, Dai Mubai still chose to give him an ambiguous answer.

"Mu Bai, it's a bit inappropriate for us to go near Tiandou City with our identities, isn't it?"

Zhu Zhuqing spoke with a hint of hesitation. Of course, she knew that Dai Mubai must have his own considerations, but she still couldn't help but try to dissuade him.

"Zhu Qing, don't worry, I have an old acquaintance there."

After hearing Zhu Zhuqing's concerns, Dai Mubai gave her a reassuring answer.

This answer also temporarily put Zhu Zhuqing's mind at ease.

While Ma Hongjun and Oscar were complaining about Dai Mubai's two-faced nature, Flander walked over.

Flander looked at Dai Mubai and knew that after the last incident, Dai Mubai probably had a knot in his heart. However, he had never spoken up because he couldn't completely sever his relationship with Yu Xiaogang, so he planned to take this opportunity to go with a few people to obtain soul rings and explain the reason clearly.

Flander looked at the four people, hesitated for a moment, and then asked Dai Mubai why he was going to Sunset Forest.

"Mu Bai, why do you want to take the three of them to Sunset Forest to obtain soul rings? It's a long journey, you see..."

"Thank you for your concern, Dean. Do you remember Poison Douluo Mianxia that I mentioned before? He has been in close contact with me recently and hopes that I will visit him. Coincidentally, he lives near Sunset Forest, so I thought we could go together."

Dai Mubai saw through Flander's intention to explain, but he temporarily did not plan to listen.

So he simply interrupted him directly and then gave Flander a perfect reason.

"Ah... That's good too."

Flander awkwardly rubbed his hands. He also knew about this matter, but it had been a long time since Dai Mubai mentioned it.

Flander also heard the hidden meaning in Dai Mubai's words, and moreover, Dai Mubai's strength had already surpassed him. Thinking of this, Flander slowly left, leaving behind a slightly lonely figure for Dai Mubai and the others.

In the carriage

Having held it in all the way, Ma Hongjun finally looked at Dai Mubai and spoke with a somewhat questioning tone.

"Dai Mubai, why didn't you let the Dean come with us?"

"Because he and that Yu Xiaogang are currently unwilling to sever their past relationship, and you don't need me to say what kind of people Yu Xiaogang and Tang San, this master and disciple pair, are, right? For the past five months since that incident, the Dean has still been speaking up for Yu Xiaogang sometimes. He has to make a choice eventually."

Dai Mubai looked at Ma Hongjun's tone and expression, his face showing no emotion, and just calmly explained the matter.

After hearing this answer, Ma Hongjun also lowered his head with a hint of loneliness. He actually knew all of this.

It was just that Ma Hongjun's feelings for Flander were not like father and son, but better than father and son. Years of getting along had long made it impossible for Ma Hongjun to let go of this feeling.

Therefore, even seeing Dai Mubai's cold attitude towards Flander, he couldn't help but want to argue for Flander a few times.

Looking at Ma Hongjun's reaction, Dai Mubai felt a mix of relief and helplessness in his heart, after all, this matter was not easy for anyone. However, only by using Flander's guilt when the time was right could Flander completely break clean with Yu Xiaogang.

As for the plan, Dai Mubai also had a plan in mind and was preparing to implement it after returning.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Oscar looked at Zhu Zhuqing and started asking questions.

"Sister-in-law, I heard yesterday that you are going to choose a ten-thousand-year soul ring for your fourth soul ring, is that right?"

Hearing the words "sister-in-law", Zhu Zhuqing's small face couldn't help but turn a little red, but she still firmly stated her choice.

"Yes, I don't want the distance between me and Mu Bai to be too great. Brother Oscar, Hongjun, you are also people who have consumed Immortal Herbs. You won't be willing to only be able to look at Mu Bai's back in the future, right?"

Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's rhetorical question, Oscar couldn't help but look out the window. After a moment, he seemed to remember someone, and his eyes were filled with determination.

"Of course, I have someone I want to protect. Fatty, you're not going to be a burden, are you?"

Ma Hongjun raised his head at this moment, looked at Oscar, and said angrily.

"As long as you don't hold us back, I won't... I'll be behind you."

At the end, Ma Hongjun was momentarily confused, after all, at the moment, he really had no direction regarding what he wanted to do in the future.

Seeing this, Dai Mubai's mouth curved slightly. He patted Ma Hongjun's shoulder and encouraged him.

"Fatty, once you win the championship of the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Competition, I guarantee I'll introduce you to a top-tier beauty as a girlfriend."

Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up when he heard this. Who understood him? After being able to control his evil fire, he saw everyone around him in pairs. Last month, even Oscar and Ning Rongrong had confirmed their relationship, and only he was still single.

At this moment, Ma Hongjun almost couldn't help but want to hug Dai Mubai and thank him again. Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's light laughter and Dai Mubai's kind smile, Ma Hongjun chuckled awkwardly, and the carriage once again filled with laughter and joy.

At this time, Dai Mubai couldn't help but feel a headache about Ma Hongjun's life-long event. After all, if Tang San was definitely going to stick to it, Bai Chenxiang was likely out of the picture.

Moreover, Bai Chenxiang's initial expression of extreme disgust, and even a little fear of Fatty, didn't necessarily match the current talented Ma Hongjun.

Dai Mubai thought of so many beauties in his previous life, yet he couldn't find one suitable for Ma Hongjun.

Then Dai Mubai simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, as an ultimate Soul Master, Ma Hongjun would win the championship then. There would be plenty of beautiful female Soul Masters in the academies who would take a liking to Ma Hongjun. At that time, he just needed to pick someone with good character.

Beneath the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest

"Deep Sea Demon Whale King (Xieyan Tyrant Lord) (Snow Empress) greets Lord. Currently, the Soul Beast armies of the Sun Moon Continent (Ocean) (Northern Icefield) have been initially assembled, waiting only for Lord's command."

Two men and one woman slowly knelt on one knee and reported to Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena looked at the three of them and nodded, still maintaining a cold tone as she spoke.

"Good, continue to stand by."

A one-eyed strong man in a dark blue robe rose and hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Lord, in a few decades, we can attack the God Realm. If we are to slaughter Gods, please be sure to leave the Sea God to me!"

Seeing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's avatar so impatient, Gu Yuena couldn't help but shake her head, but she couldn't blame him.

After all, among the three peak Soul Beasts, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was the most enthusiastic in responding after hearing that Soul Beasts could not become Gods and about their own identities.

After all, it had fought against the Sea God, who had not yet become a God, ten thousand years ago, and then one of its eyes was blinded by the Sea God. Its hatred for the God Realm was probably the deepest among the three peak Soul Beasts, and most of it came from the Sea God.

"You, a Soul Beast that is only at the peak of the Quasi-God level, are already thinking of killing the Sea God, a First-Level God?"

Gu Yuena looked at the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, whose eyes were full of hatred, and couldn't help but ask back while supporting her forehead.

After hearing Gu Yuena's rhetorical question, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King immediately deflated and stood awkwardly in place.

"Lord, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is just eager to understand the subsequent plans in order to prepare in advance."

The white-clothed woman transformed by the Snow Empress saw the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's embarrassment, so she spoke up to help him out of the awkward situation.

"I will arrange for Senior Gengjin White Tiger to explain the subsequent plan to you clearly."

Hearing this, Gu Yuena was also a little embarrassed, after all, Dai Mubai had not explained the specific plan to her last time, which made her only able to deal with it at this time.

The purple-clothed strong man transformed by the Xieyan Tyrant Lord rolled his purple eyes, and then spoke somewhat tentatively.

"Lord, I heard that Lord Gengjin is currently in human form, this..."

Gu Yuena's cold gaze swept over the Xieyan Tyrant Lord, her tone calm but not allowing any trace of doubt.

"I will say it again, without Lord Gengjin, none of this would exist! I do not have the habit of saying the same thing twice!"

At this moment, the three of them quickly knelt on one knee and shouted in unison that they wouldn't dare, while one person's eyes still flickered with suspicion...
