Douluo: Soul Devouring Spider King

Chapter 160 Green Scale Snake!

"Lingling? Why are you looking at me like that?"

After the mandrake snake was released, the elite team moved forward again, but along the way the team members kept secretly peeking at Xiaodong with undisguised weird expressions.

Even Ye Lingling was the same. She tried to ask several times, but seemed to be hesitant about something and did not speak.

"Um, Xiaodong...that mandrake snake..."

"Why don't you attack me?"

"Ah."

Ye Lingling finally asked the question that everyone was concerned about. Xiaodong smiled and said, "Because it sensed my good intentions!"

"But……"

"Lingling wants to say that it is a soul beast, an emotionless creature dominated by animal instincts, and it is extremely hostile to soul masters. How could it allow me to get close to it?"

"But everything has a soul!" Xiao Dong said as he spread out his palms, letting a cute and timid soft-bone rabbit jump into his hands. He stroked its fur and said, "Actually, I don't know why I have this ability. I can feel the good and evil of the soul beast towards me."

"Oh, right. I discovered this ability when I was in the Junior Soul Master Academy. I guess it's because I often perform soul-restoring and soul-relief exercises on dead soul beasts. Over time, I've gained the favor of their tribe."

It was a very mysterious explanation. Everyone looked at each other, but they couldn't find a more convincing explanation, so they could only accept it reluctantly.

Having said that, although there was an element of being forced by the system at the time, Xiaodong could have stayed away from going forward and thus not been exposed, but she still did it.

However, Xiaodong is not afraid of exposing this ability. What happened in Notting City a year ago will be leaked sooner or later, so it is better to say it openly. Anyway, the natives will not infer the truth that Xiaodong is also a soul beast based on this. By the way, it can also add points to his kind and saintly personality.

Oh, by the way, this ability actually conveys a message to others: you will not be harmed by soul beasts!

Because of the characteristics of [Soul Resting], Xiaodong often has to find a team to go down to the dungeon and deal with soul beasts. This not only explains the significance of this behavior, but also allows the three bodyguards and the team leaders to relax.

It's a secret that doesn't matter if it's exposed.

After being surprised for a while, the friends accepted this strange setting calmly.

The team continued to move forward. Although they were only searching for soul beasts for Dugu Yan, there would always be some ungrateful soul beasts that would jump out of the forest and seek death, but they were all easily dealt with by Qin Ming.

Qin Ming deliberately held back when dealing with the first few people, and only dealt with them immediately after he found that Xiaodong had no intention of helping him.

In this way, Qin Ming and his team members also discovered that Xiaodong would not try to save every soul beast. For those that actively attacked and had to be killed, Xiaodong would only watch quietly, and after they died, he would step forward to give them souls peace and salvation, and that was it.

'It seems that Xiaodong is not the kind of saint who will save people regardless of the consequences, but a saint with principles! '

She knows when to save and when to ignore!

Qin Ming's eyes lit up when he noticed this. There was hope of changing Xiaodong's mind!

No, to be precise, it doesn’t matter if there is no change. It’s also good this way. Xiaodong won’t rely on his status and position to satisfy the morbid saintly thinking, nor will he affect others!

"The only thing that's not beautiful is Xiaodong's soul ring. She is still unwilling to kill soul beasts and hunt soul rings... Little Black Seed? Oh~" Qin Ming sighed slightly.

The others also had strange expressions on their faces, and their spirits were not very high along the way.

Only Xiaodong would occasionally reveal a cute smile, which made Lingling and Duguyan absent-minded from time to time, but unfortunately no one noticed it.

Just like that, in a blink of an eye, the morning passed, and Qin Ming killed 5 soul beasts, some over a thousand years old and some younger, but he did not encounter soul beasts over 2000 years old like he did yesterday. However, Xiaodong's soul power pool still increased to [15233] points.

That’s right, there are some uncomfortable bits again ~ Damn it!

Fortunately, Xiaodong's soul power has also increased a lot. She feels that she is about to level up. From 25 to 29 in two days? This is too exaggerated!

Well~be a little more low-key!

In addition, the team accidentally discovered three dead soul beasts on the road. While Xiaodong was [Comforting the Souls], Qin Ming checked the corpses and the surroundings and deduced that they had been dead for about 2 hours, and that a battle had taken place here, which was caused by a soul master!

Someone is also hunting soul beasts!

However, Sunset Forest is not private after all, so it is normal for other soul masters to appear, and no one cares.

But Xiaodong, who was cautious by nature, did not relax and immediately used his mental power to conduct a large-scale investigation!

Then, she indeed detected three soul masters!

Two old men and a young girl!

'An old woman with 6th-ring Soul Emperor and an old man with 7th-ring Soul Saint, with a short-haired girl who looks like level 30.'

It should be the grandparents taking their granddaughter to hunt soul beasts. The combination is not strange, but all three of them are holding a snake staff! And they are chasing a soul beast.

"The body does not change when the soul ring moves. It seems to be a weapon soul. Yes, it is the snake staff in the hand. Wait, the soul beast they are chasing is..."

Xiaodong's eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at Duguyan who was walking in front of him: "It's a green-scaled snake! Isn't this too coincidental?"

"Huh? Why do I feel like I'm seeing that old man and old woman and that granddaughter... I think I saw them in anime before?"

Xiaodong thought for a while but still couldn't remember: "It's probably an unimportant role, but..."

I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but the escape route of the green-scaled snake was exactly the direction the team was heading!

Sure enough, it didn’t take long for Qin Ming to sense something unusual!

"Is there a sound of fighting? Everyone, pay attention!" Qin Ming raised his hand to signal everyone to be alert, and then looked at Yu Feng, who nodded, jumped onto a tree, and disappeared in front after a few flashes.

Only about 10 minutes later, Yu Feng returned to the team with a surprised look on his face. He looked straight at Dugu Yan and said, "There is a soul master fighting with the Green Scaled Snake about meters away!"

"What!" Dugu Yan was stunned, and Qin Ming immediately asked: "How many soul masters? What's their strength?"

"It's an old man and an old woman. The old man has no spirit rings, but the old woman has 6! Oh, and there's a young girl with the old man." After a pause, Yu Feng was a little uncertain: "The girl only has two spirit rings, probably..."

The third soul ring!

Well, now even the year is appropriate!

The team members couldn't help but look at Duguyan excitedly, but she should be happy, but her eyes were full of confusion, and she gritted her teeth: "I actually encountered the Green Scaled Snake... Is it God's will?"

At this time, Yu Tianheng suddenly came over and said, "Yanyan, the opportunity is rare! It's time to make a decision!"

Duguyan tilted her head slightly, glanced at Xiaodong out of the corner of her eye, then immediately turned back, and then closed her eyes. When she opened them again, the tangled look disappeared, and she turned to look at Qin Ming with full determination: "Teacher!"
