88: The dragon man's soul is mysteriously lost

“You…”

Seeing the little girl Bai Ling’s appearance, Yun Li was clearly puzzled.

“Miss, I’m sorry. I thought you would come here with that strange Dragon you like. I was afraid you’d miss him again, so I specifically added some Jade Pool Ancient Brew to the Liyue Heavenly Qin…”

Bai Ling lowered her little head, cautiously looking at Yun Li.

A hint of complexity appeared in Yun Li’s eyes, subtly tinged with a touch of shame. She glared at Bai Ling, then secretly glanced at Mu Wuchen.

Bai Ling’s little head also looked left and right, and the more she looked, the more something felt off. She seemed to have discovered something…

Miss’s shy posture, and that expression of shyness mixed with a hint of coyness, and a touch of charm within the coyness, it didn’t seem like she was forced?

She gasped, covering her little mouth, her eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at Yun Li, her face a picture of gossip.

“Miss, you…”

“You…cheated?”

The words instantly stunned Mu Wuchen.

However, Mu Wuchen also realized that this little white bird indeed had a deep connection with Yun Li.

Slap!

Bai Ling’s little bottom was slapped, surprisingly by Little Fairy Yun Li, who was usually gentle.

It was clearly not easy for a gentle girl like Yun Li to do such a thing.

“What nonsense are you spouting?”

Yun Li chided softly.

Feeling her Miss’s anger, the little girl Bai Ling shrank her neck and quickly changed the subject.

“Miss, something big has happened. That strange Dragon disappeared for no reason, and the entire underground world has lost its power support. The remaining power is estimated to be completely exhausted in less than ten thousand years…”

“Miss, you and that strange Dragon…”

Mu Wuchen interrupted her.

“That Dragon has already been killed by me.”

Bai Ling’s little mouth instantly dropped wide open, her eyes full of suspicion.

“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

“Although that strange Dragon is only a remnant, with less than one ten-thousandth of his strength, he was once a Dragon Emperor. How could you, a Mystic Infant, possibly kill him?!”

Just then, Su Meier, not far away, suddenly made a gesture of embracing. Bai Ling, who was hiding behind Yun Li, unexpectedly appeared in Su Meier’s arms. Her petite body was tightly held by Su Meier, like a poor little bird caught by a fox.

A glint of light appeared in Su Meier’s beautiful fox eyes as she licked Bai Ling’s little cheek, like a fox toying with its prey.

However, what seemed like a soft, ample embrace to Mu Wuchen felt like a demon to Bai Ling, utterly terrifying…

Foxes were her natural enemies as a bird, and Su Meier’s strength was so much greater than hers. Bai Ling was so scared that her teeth were chattering.

“M-Miss…”

“S-Save…me…”

“Wuwuwu——”

Su Meier’s arms around Bai Ling tightened, and Bai Ling’s body trembled more and more violently. She even forgot to struggle, her big eyes brimming with tears.

“Little snack, from now on, when you see Master, be good, or I’ll definitely eat you.”

“From now on, you’ll be the youngest. You must call everyone ‘Sister,’ understood?”

Bai Ling nodded frantically, like a chicken pecking rice, her mouth still whimpering with sobs.

After intimidating the little girl Bai Ling, Su Meier finally released her.

Bai Ling timidly hid behind Yun Li again, this time not even daring to show her head. This fox was truly too terrifying, scaring the little white bird to death…

However, the foxy Su Meier, who had just been so fierce towards the little white bird, actually offered her head when Mu Wuchen reached out, letting Mu Wuchen stroke her, looking docile and enjoying it…

Bai Ling immediately shivered. This human was also so scary…

“Things here are pretty much done. It’s time for us to leave.”

“Yun Li, how are you now? Does it still hurt?”

Mu Wuchen looked at Yun Li.

Yun Li’s face subtly flushed.

“Mu…Mu Gege, I’m fine.”

Given Mu Wuchen’s relationship with her, calling him Senior Brother Mu now would clearly seem distant. However, calling him by this name in her normal state still made her slightly shy.

Mu Wuchen smiled faintly, summoned the Golden Winged Roc again, and took the group away.

The little girl Bai Ling had been hiding behind Yun Li, holding one of Yun Li’s arms, clearly wanting to follow Yun Li, but also afraid of that cunning, evil, and cruel fox.

And that White-Robed Man who played with that fierce fox…

At the edge of the rift high in the sky, many people were still rushing downwards on flying immortal artifacts or mounts. Because the Taixu Emperor Dragon had caused quite a stir before making his move, many people had also absorbed a lot of the power emitted by the Taixu Emperor Dragon, and thus wanted to go down to seek greater opportunities.

However, Mu Wuchen knew that apart from some ancient creatures below, the greatest opportunities had already been taken by them all.

The most powerful opportunity was undoubtedly the Taixu Emperor Dragon himself. His Dragon corpse had been collected into Mu Wuchen’s system space. Although it was already badly damaged, it was still the corpse of an ancient Emperor Dragon, and its uses were certainly many.

What surprised Mu Wuchen even more was that Su Meier and Yun Li had both broken through.

Su Meier had broken through to the ninth layer of the Demon Emperor realm due to the previous great battle with the Taixu Emperor Dragon, which allowed her to experience higher-level power and burn her own life, greatly stimulating her potential, in addition to the improvement of her bloodline!

And Little Fairy Yun Li probably broke through because she drank the Jade Pool Ancient Brew and then had a great battle with Mu Wuchen…

Hmm, both of them broke through after a battle. It seems like they need to fight more often in the future!

Then there was Yun Li’s Liyue Heavenly Qin. This item was also of extremely high grade, being the Lapis Lazuli Colorful Phoenix’s natal magical artifact back then. Once fully mastered, it could very likely reach the Venerable rank.

After that, it should be the Dragon Vein Souls among the Twelve Saint Pillars. Although these things were useless to Mu Wuchen, they were clearly rare treasures for other cultivators.

Thinking of this, Mu Wuchen suddenly froze. He suddenly felt something was off.

The Twelve Saint Pillars included twelve different animals: Dragon Horse, Dragon Elephant, Dragon Tortoise, Dragon Lion, Dragon Ox, Dragon Sheep, Dragon Tiger, Dragon Carp, Dragon Butterfly, Dragon Crocodile, Dragon Eagle, and Dragon Human.

Before this, he had taken the two women to many places according to the map’s guidance and obtained several Dragon Vein Souls. Later, he had also killed all of Lin Fan’s subordinates and taken their souls. Logically, he should have obtained all of them by now.

But now, Mu Wuchen only had eleven souls, still missing one.

Mu Wuchen immediately discovered the anomaly: he was missing the Dragon Human soul!

And when they had previously gone to the Dragon Human’s pillar, the Dragon Human soul had already been taken by someone else…

What was going on?

Mu Wuchen’s brows furrowed slightly.

Something out of the ordinary must be demonic…
