After convincing She Wuwan to beco his bodyguard, Mo Yu felt much more at ease.
A peak Dou Zun with the power of the Seven-Winged Purple Gold Snake was an unparalleled guardian. Even the young masters of the eight great ancient clans might not enjoy such treatnt.
"Mo Yu, my soul is extrely weak right now. I can't manifest for long. Find a safe place quickly and let consu the Earthcore Soul Fruit," the raspy and cold voice of Uncle She sounded, and his gaze turned toward Mo Yu, speaking solemnly.
Mo Yu nodded and smiled lightly, "Don't worry, Uncle She. There's a small town not far from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. It'll take less than half a day to reach, and it's very safe—perfect for you to recover so soul power."
If he could repair so of She Wuwan's soul as soon as possible, Mo Yu would gain a powerful expert at his side. This was nothing but beneficial for him, so he wouldn't skimp on the effort.
She Wuwan nodded in satisfaction, then slowly said, "If you encounter any danger, you can call upon for help. Since you've aided , I won't be stingy with my assistance."
"Thank you in advance, senior," Mo Yu smiled and respectfully expressed his thanks.
She Wuwan waved his hand. Perhaps due to being trapped for so long, his soul appeared much more illusory.
"Oh? Your storage ring seems special. It's no less than high-grade Na Rings, quite suitable for to reside in," Uncle She remarked with surprise as he glanced at the beast ring in Mo Yu's hand.
Mo Yu chuckled, "I'm a weapon refiner. I once ca across so unique refining thods by chance, and this beast ring is one of the creations."
"I nad this ring the Demon Frost Beast Ring. Unlike regular na rings, it can store living creatures. I've even stored my fourth-tier magic beast inside."
Hearing this, Uncle She's face flashed with surprise again. A ring that could store living beings and a re Dou Shi who possessed a fourth-tier magic beast—this youth was becoming more and more astonishing to him.
If it weren't for the boy's clear background, She Wuwan would have suspected Mo Yu was a descendant of a superpower from Central Plains.
"I hope I didn't misjudge you..." Uncle She's raspy voice carried a hint of admiration as he glanced deeply at Mo Yu before transforming into a streak of light and diving into the Demon Frost Beast Ring.
Seeing Uncle She enter the ring, Mo Yu sighed in relief.
Considering the old snake had lived for hundreds of years, much longer than all three of Mo Yu's lives combined, had it not been for the unique snake bloodline, She Wuwan might have already aged beyond recognition. Calling him "Uncle Snake" seed generous—"Snake Ancestor" might have been more appropriate.
For now, the two had ford a temporary partnership. With this powerful trump card in hand, Mo Yu felt much more secure.
After sending a ntal ssage to Zi Huo in the Demon Frost Beast Ring not to provoke their "guest," Mo Yu slowly walked out of the grand hall.
"Young master, you're back!"
Seeing Mo Yu step out of the dark hall, Qing Lin, who had been waiting outside, ran over excitedly. She anxiously checked him over, worried that sothing had happened to the young master.
"Mm, I'm back," Mo Yu gently patted Qing Lin's head and smiled warmly.
"Huh, this maid of yours is quite strange..." Uncle She's raspy voice suddenly sounded in Mo Yu's mind as he spoke to Qing Lin.
Mo Yu wasn't surprised by the voice. With the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, Qing Lin was a natural nesis of all snake-type magical beasts. Since the snake people also carried the bloodline of snakes, it was natural for Uncle She to sense sothing odd about Qing Lin.
However, the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, though powerful enough to control snake-type magical beasts, didn't affect ancient snake-blooded beings.
Uncle She, having evolved into a Seven-Winged Purple Gold Snake, carried an ancient snake lineage, so Qing Lin's pupil technique was ineffective against him.
Still, despite this, Qing Lin's presence shocked Uncle She.
"She possesses the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils! Boy, where did you find this maid?" Uncle She's astonished voice echoed.
The Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils were considered the bane of all snake-type magical beasts, rare even in hundreds of years. To find such a person as a maid for a re Dou Shi was simply unbelievable.
Since eting Mo Yu, Uncle She realized that his life as a Dou Zun was filled with surprises. The youth before him was like a fog, impossible to fully understand.
"Uncle She, Qing Lin is a maid from my clan. As for why she possesses the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, it might be because she's a mix of snake people and humans. That's all I know," Mo Yu said with a casual tone.
Hearing this, Uncle She was left speechless. "You're really lucky. Even your maid has the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. If the superpowers of Central Plains knew, they'd be furious. If this little girl grows up, her achievents may surpass even mine."
Mo Yu didn't doubt this. The potential of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils had been proven in the original story, marking Qing Lin as soone destined for greatness.
It also reminded Mo Yu that he should eventually let Qing Lin go. Keeping her by his side would only hinder her growth.
After chatting briefly with Qing Lin and Uncle She, Mo Yu slowly approached the bone mountain.
"One, two, three, four... thirteen." After counting the fire beads in the mountain's holes, a smile curved on Mo Yu's lips.
"These dozen or so fire beads should make up for this trip's yield," he muttered.
After collecting the fire beads into his na ring, Mo Yu clapped his hands and said to Qing Lin, "Although we didn't find the Ten Thousand Beasts Fla, this harvest is still good. Let's head back."
A dozen fire beads were quite valuable, and along with gaining Uncle She as a bodyguard, Mo Yu's luck was at its peak.
Qing Lin obediently nodded. For her, it wasn't about the harvest; as long as her young master was safe, everything was fine.
At the entrance of the cave, Mo Yu glanced at the Rock Snake Giant Lizard Beast, still trembling but not daring to enter. He then looked at the little girl beside him and strode forward.
Although he could have stored the Rock Snake Giant Lizard in the beast ring, Qing Lin's Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils had the sa ability for snake-type magical beasts, so he didn't need to bother.
As expected, after Mo Yu passed, Qing Lin whistled, and the green light on the giant lizard's forehead intensified. In an instant, its massive body shrank and turned into a streak of light, shooting into Qing Lin's sleeve.
Patting her sleeve curiously, Qing Lin smiled and whispered, "Don't cause trouble, or if the young master gets angry, I'll throw you away."
"Ssss..." A faint hiss of discontent sounded, clearly showing the Rock Snake Giant Lizard's displeasure at being treated so unfairly.
"Hehe." Qing Lin giggled, covering her mouth, then skipped after Mo Yu, her figure gradually disappearing into the darkness of the passage.
As their footsteps faded away, the enormous dark passageway returned to eternal silence.
"The Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils are truly extraordinary. She's not even a Dou Zhe yet, and she can already control a fourth-tier snake-type magical beast," Uncle She's raspy voice echoed with a hint of surprise as he noticed Qing Lin's mastery over the fourth-tier magical beast.
Despite his centuries of roaming the continent, it was the first ti he had encountered a true possessor of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, leaving him deeply shocked.
The Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils were indeed the nesis of snake-type bloodlines. Even with his ancient heritage, Uncle She still felt a slight threat.
Smiling at Uncle She's astonishnt, Mo Yu kept so of his and Qing Lin's secrets to himself. Trust between them was still limited, and Mo Yu had no intention of exposing everything.
When they exited the dark cave, the sun had already begun to rise, marking the passage of a full day underground.
By midday, after half a day's journey, Mo Yu and Qing Lin finally returned to Lannister Town.
Seeing the small town in the distance, Mo Yu felt a wave of relief. The exploration of that dark cave had been nerve-racking, and now, he was finally back safe and sound.
Walking through the town, Mo Yu noticed that the street, which should have been bustling with rcenaries, seed unusually quiet. Frowning slightly, a sense of unease crept into his heart...
The rcenaries passing through the town had noticeably decreased in number, and many of those who remained wore the sa badge on their chests. Having spent a day in Lannister Town, Mo Yu naturally recognized this badge as belonging to the Berserk Lion rcenary Group.
"Sothing's not right... When did the Berserk Lion rcenary Group get so many mbers? Could it be that they defeated and annexed the Mountain Demon rcenary Group in the battle a couple of days ago? But weren't their strengths pretty evenly matched?"
Muttering softly, Mo Yu's face showed a trace of confusion. He squinted his eyes slightly and, holding onto Qing Lin, slowly made his way through the street.
As they headed toward the inn, Mo Yu suddenly stopped in his tracks. Lifting his chin slightly, he turned to gaze at the large compound at the end of the street.
This was the headquarters of the Mountain Demon rcenary Group, where he had t Cersei before. It used to be bustling with activity, but now the street was in disarray, and the surrounding shops seed to have closed early. A light breeze blew, carrying a sense of desolation.
"Sothing really did happen to the Mountain Demon rcenary Group?" Mo Yu muttered in surprise, rubbing his cheek gently.
The Mountain Demon rcenary Group was the second-ranked rcenary group in the town, and their leader, Mountain Demon, was a one-star Da Dou Shi. Such strength made him a prominent figure even in the empire's cities. How could they have been wiped out in just a few days?
"Young master, should we go inside and take a look?" Qing Lin asked softly from the side.
"No need. We have no ties to the Mountain Demon rcenary Group," Mo Yu replied, shaking his head.
The Earthcore Soul Fruit had been bought with his own money, and he didn't owe the Mountain Demon rcenary Group anything, so he naturally didn't care much about the situation.
Qing Lin had only asked casually. Seeing that her young master had no intention of intervening, she said nothing further. Although the young girl had a kind heart, she wasn't soone who would stick her nose into every problem.
Just as Mo Yu was about to turn and leave, a long spear, stained with fresh blood, suddenly shot out from behind the gates of the Mountain Demon rcenary Group's headquarters, aiming straight for Mo Yu's throat.
The sudden attack startled Mo Yu, but his expression remained unchanged. His cold gaze locked onto the rapidly approaching spear tip, and he didn't move a muscle.
The sharp spear ca within half a foot of Mo Yu's body before it strangely halted in mid-air, frozen just inches away.
Mo Yu's face darkened. This unprovoked attack ignited a spark of anger within him.
With a re thought, powerful soul energy surged out, instantly controlling the spear. He reversed its direction, sending it crashing back the way it ca.
A dull thud echoed out, followed by an explosion from within the Mountain Demon rcenary Group's headquarters.
A figure was blasted out, and a bloodied head landed not far from Mo Yu.
"A mber of the Berserk Lion rcenary Group?" Mo Yu frowned as he noticed the badge on the attacker's body. So, the Berserk Lion rcenary Group had indeed wiped out the Mountain Demon rcenary Group? If that were the case, it was likely that the fact that the Earthcore Soul Fruit was in his possession had been exposed.
"Who's there!?"
After Mo Yu dealt with the assassin from the Berserk Lion rcenary Group, the commotion caught the attention of others nearby. Several more Berserk Lion rcenaries appeared.
"Who dares interfere with the Berserk Lion rcenary Group's business?!" The voice of a leader, still unseen, rang out arrogantly before his figure even appeared on the street.
"It's you!" When the scar-faced middle-aged leader finally saw Mo Yu, his expression froze. Realizing sothing, he quickly turned to the back and shouted in excitent, "Captain, we've found Mo Yu!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Yu's face darkened. It seed that the Berserk Lion rcenary Group knew his na, confirming that the secret of the Earthcore Soul Fruit had been revealed.
As the na "Mo Yu" was uttered, a strange silence fell over the Mountain Demon rcenary Group's headquarters. After a few monts of eerie quiet, the gates slowly creaked open.
Through the open gates, a middle-aged man erged. He was tall and imposing, dressed in more luxurious clothing than the other rcenaries, and the emblem on his robe featured a roaring lion's head, symbolizing his unique status.
Upon seeing the man, Mo Yu was montarily stunned. He quickly realized that this was Huang Lie, the captain of the Berserk Lion rcenary Group and the top fighter in the town, a two-star Da Dou Shi!
Just as Mo Yu thought the mastermind behind the destruction of the Mountain Demon rcenary Group had revealed himself, Huang Lie's gaze swept over him and his beautiful maidservant. After confirming Mo Yu's identity, Huang Lie narrowed his eyes and gave a strange smile. Then, suddenly, he turned around, bent down, and bowed deeply, his respectful posture indicating that he was greeting soone important.
Not only him—every mber of the Berserk Lion rcenary Group bent at the waist. Hundreds of people bowed in unison, creating an impressive scene.
Under such reverence, a young man dressed in a golden robe with a python design slowly walked out from behind Huang Lie. He was handso, and his sharp gaze fixed on Mo Yu as he spoke coldly.
"So, you're the one who stole this king Earthcore Soul Fruit?"
