Chapter 78 Xiao Wu Returns
Yu Tianyun didn't continue searching for Tang San. Having already intercepted the soul bone, Tang San was no longer of value. Yu Tianyun headed straight back. The Star Dou Great Forest was fraught with danger, and Zhao Wuji was also injured, making him very worried that Ning Rongrong and the others might encounter further accidents.
However, he hadn't flown far when he encountered the oncoming group, and Yu Tianyun immediately landed in front of them. The two kittens and Ning Rongrong rushed over, checking Yu Tianyun thoroughly to see if he was injured.
After discovering that Yu Tianyun was unharmed, Ning Rongrong was overjoyed and pouted, saying, "Brother Tianyun, are you alright? From now on, you're not allowed to leave us behind and go on adventures alone!"
Yu Tianyun patted her head and replied, "Don't worry, I'll be fine!"
Zhao Wuji, whose face was still very pale, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Yu Tianyun was unharmed. He then hurriedly asked, "We just heard a dragon's roar, so we rushed over. What happened? Is Tang San with you?"
Upon hearing Zhao Wuji's question, Yu Tianyun briefly recounted his experience, naturally omitting any mention of the soul bone.
"I chased after Tang San all the way until I finally caught up with him. At that time, he was confronting a human-faced demon spider. I helped him block the human-faced demon spider, and then he went to chase the Titan Giant Ape. After I killed the human-faced demon spider, the three generations of the Gai Shi Long She family arrived. After I sent them away, I lost track of Tang San. I just started to return when I encountered you."
After listening to Yu Tianyun's story, Zhao Wuji nodded and said, "Well, as long as you reveal your identity, the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple will naturally not dare to make things difficult for you. As for Tang San, he was so reckless, and now we don't know where he is! We need to continue searching."
Zhao Wuji was now very resentful towards Tang San. If he wasn't afraid of Tang Hao coming after him, he really wouldn't want to bother with Tang San anymore, because Tang San was asking for death by daring to overestimate his abilities and chase after the Titan Giant Ape!
They had no choice but to continue forward. When they passed the remains of the human-faced demon spider, everyone except Zhao Wuji turned pale and almost vomited. The human-faced demon spider's death was simply too disgusting.
Yu Tianyun explained calmly, "This human-faced demon spider had a cultivation level of over two thousand years and was extremely dangerous. I dared not hold back and it took a lot of effort to kill it, so its death was rather tragic."
The Human-Faced Demon Spider, known as the "Evil Slayer," while not as terrifying as the Titan Ape, is still a top-tier soul beast. Especially since it is extremely cunning and treacherous, its two thousand years of cultivation is incredibly formidable; even Zhao Wuji would have to be careful. Everyone's assessment of Yu Tianyun's strength rose another level!
Just as everyone was marveling at the death of the Man-Faced Demon Spider and Yu Tianyun's formidable strength, two light footsteps reached the ears of Yu Tianyun and Zhao Wuji.
Yu Tianyun's spiritual power was even higher, and he immediately knew the identity of the newcomer, but he remained calm and composed.
Zhao Wuji was in a bad mood because leading the team had resulted in the lives of two students being unknown. His eyes instantly turned icy cold, and without thinking, he unleashed his powerful soul force, shouting sharply, "Who?"
"Ouch!" "Hmph!" A gasp and a muffled groan rang out at the same time.
"Teacher Zhao, it's us!" A female voice came from the woods.
"Xiao Wu? Tang San?"
The voice was indeed Xiao Wu's. Everyone except Yu Tianyun was stunned. Zhao Wuji was the first to react and quickly withdrew his soul power pressure. Two figures ran out of the woods.
It was Xiao Wu and Tang San!
Seeing that the two had returned unharmed, Zhao Wuji was very happy, but also felt very strange, and couldn't help but ask them, "Xiao Wu, Tang San, how did you get back?"
When Zhao Wuji asked her questions, Xiao Wu's expression was slightly different, as if she had something on her mind.
But she still explained that after she woke up, she was left on the grass. The Titan Giant Ape was nowhere to be found, and there were many soul beasts around her who had been knocked unconscious. Coincidentally, there was a rabbit-type soul beast with a thousand-year cultivation. She absorbed its soul ring and became a Soul Master. After that, she met Tang San, and the two of them returned together!
Although the whole process was somewhat fantastical, Zhao Wuji did not delve into it further after seeing the two return safely.
Tang San then walked towards Yu Tianyun, forcing a smile, and said, "Yu Tianyun, thank you for blocking the Man-Faced Demon Spider for me. I owe you a favor. From now on, I will do whatever you ask if I can."
Even if Tang San doesn't thank him, he won't care, since he has already intercepted Tang San's external soul bone.
Look, now Tang San has to thank us!
However, one shouldn't refuse a favor, so Yu Tianyun nodded and said, "That human-faced demon spider has been cultivated for over two thousand years and is indeed quite difficult to deal with. Since you put it that way, then I will accept your offer."
Tang San was shocked. It turned out to be a human-faced demon spider with two thousand years of cultivation. He really owed Yu Tianyun a huge favor.
You should know that back then, in order to hunt down a Ghost Vine with a cultivation of six hundred years, he even asked the Dean of the Soul Sect of Notting Academy to take action and successfully capture it.
The human-faced demon spider, with two thousand years of cultivation, is an absolutely terrifying existence. Even if he used his strongest hidden weapon, he might not be able to kill it.
He couldn't help but feel a little troubled by this enormous favor!
Now that Tang San and Xiao Wu had returned, Zhao Wuji decided to rest for the night and continue his search for Tang San's third spirit ring early the next morning.
Around midnight, the group found a relatively open space.
The group set up their tents again and went to sleep. The experience of the first half of the night had been so thrilling that everyone was extremely exhausted and soon drifted off to sleep.
Although Zhao Wuji was seriously injured, as a Soul Saint, his mental state was obviously much better, so he was still on night watch.
He felt like he was being plagued by bad luck lately!
First, he was beaten up by Tang Hao at the academy; then, when he arrived in a small town near the Star Dou Great Forest, he finally had a chance to beat up Ye Zhi Qiu to vent his anger, but he failed to do so; after entering the Star Dou Great Forest, he first encountered the Snake Granny, and then ran into the Titan Giant Ape, where he was slapped. The Snake Granny was easy to deal with, only requiring some words, but the Titan Giant Ape was a 100,000-year-old soul beast that even Tang Hao dared not easily provoke! He would rather be beaten up by Tang Hao again than receive that slap.
The experiences of the past few days have been more tumultuous than anything he's ever encountered in his life. Fortunately, they all ended without serious harm; otherwise, Old Zhao would probably have been scared out of his wits.
He will never lead a team to the Star Dou Great Forest again; let Flander lead the team himself!
At this moment, Yu Tianyun finally relaxed a bit, holding the three women and resting in the tent, but he did not feel comfortable.
The tent wasn't very soundproof, and Yu Tianyun wasn't that shameless, so he could only look but not eat.
This is truly a terrible ordeal.
