The next day, outside the Xingdou Great Forest.
"Yi Ran, kill these two soul beasts. You don't need to absorb your first soul ring according to the family. Break it and absorb it again."
Two dying giant snakes were thrown to the ground. Ye Xuan waved his hand, and Meng Yi Ran, who was hiding in the tree, jumped down. The moment he landed, he seemed to slip to the side because he didn't step firmly.
"Master is really powerful~ He can actually hunt living thousand-year soul beasts~" Meng Yi Ran praised with a smile, and then hugged Ye Xuan's body, as if he was going to kiss him like this.
"Okay, didn't you know whether I was powerful or not yesterday? Go and absorb it quickly, I will protect you." Ye Xuan patted Meng Yi Ran's butt, feeling helpless. Before bringing Meng Yi Ran to hunt souls, he fed the girl several pieces of whale glue.
Unexpectedly, the aphrodisiac effect was unexpectedly good. The two of them had been entangled in the morning until the afternoon. Now it was almost evening, and they found two suitable soul beasts.
"Thank you, Master~" Meng Yiran, who failed to take advantage, pouted and trotted to a giant snake. The snake blade popped out, and the first soul ring under Meng Yiran's feet flashed. After killing the giant snake, the girl quickly sat down.
The original first soul ring showed fine lines. With the slight sound of breaking, the girl's body trembled and a few beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. Standing behind Meng Yiran, the vitality of the surrounding plants was directly bestowed by Ye Xuan into the girl's body.
The originally slightly pale cheeks became rosy again, and the soul ring on the corpse in front was put on the summoned snake staff.
The original two-meter-long wooden staff was shrinking little by little as the soul ring gradually stabilized. The style of the cane gradually became straight, and finally turned into a straight stick only one meter long, like a stiff snake.
"How is it? What is the effect of the soul skill?" Ye Xuan nodded with satisfaction at the change in the appearance of the martial soul. This was actually just the shortening of the snake staff after it recovered from its original length.
The previous first soul ring made Ye Xuan very puzzled. Two meters long, he thought this martial soul length was natural, but after asking Meng Yiran, he found out that this was the order of the soul ring addition of Meng Yiran's family, which could be cultivated smoothly all the way to her grandmother's soul emperor cultivation.
"Master~ The effect of the first soul skill is to increase the speed by 20%, why does it feel a little weak~" After a little perception, Meng Yiran's body flashed and came behind Ye Xuan, hugged his waist directly, and whispered in Ye Xuan's ear.
"20%? It is indeed a little weak, but the soul ring age will be increased later, and the bonus should be increased." She grabbed Meng Yiran's dishonest hands and stopped her from groping down. Ye Xuan easily broke free from her hands.
"Can the soul ring age be improved?" Meng Yiran studied her soul ring with some curiosity. The first soul ring of two thousand years can be said to have completely shattered her previous cognition, but she completely trusted everything Ye Xuan said, and would believe it without thinking no matter what it was. This is also the reason why she broke the first soul ring without hesitation.
"Of course, it's just that the timing is not right now. Your body is not strong enough. Go and absorb the second soul ring." Meng Yiran didn't explain too much to her. Her body strength was far from what Ye Xuan could give her directly. She could only use soul rings and soul bones to slowly transform it.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Master~" Meng Yiran didn't continue to pester her. After taking a short rest, she quickly sat down again and put another purple soul ring on the snake staff.
Compared to the absorption of the first soul ring, this time it took much longer. Ye Xuan, who was next to Meng Yiran, frowned slightly. Looking at the girl with a painful look on her face, he opened his spiritual eyes. The flow of soul power appeared in Ye Xuan's eyes. Although he couldn't see through the meridians, he could already see the direction of the soul power.
Soul power was injected from the soul ring into the snake staff in the middle, and then quickly flowed to Meng Yiran. Unlike the ordinary strengthening of a certain area, these soul powers seemed to be evenly spread all over the girl's body.
Paying attention to the limits of the girl's body, Ye Xuan was relieved and just opened his spiritual eyes ready to interrupt at any time. After all, this soul ring has reached a full six thousand years, which is three times the first soul ring. It is the fourth soul ring choice of most soul masters.
Time passed, and the sunlight between the leaves was a little dim. The girl sitting cross-legged on the ground slowly opened her eyes. The snake staff in front of her was only the length of her forearm. It was more like the handle of a snake whip than a snake staff.
"Huh~ Master, do you want to guess my soul skills~" Meng Yiran said excitedly about his own martial soul, with a desire to try in his eyes.
"Okay, if there is no problem, it is a 60% attribute bonus, right?"
"You guessed half right~" The martial spirit in the girl's hand gradually stretched out and turned into a thin whip, "It is 60% full attribute bonus, plus soul skills, snake whip~"
With the girl's cry, the whip made a whirring sound in the air and wrapped around Ye Xuan. Pulling the whip, Ye Xuan exerted force, and Meng Yiran was directly dragged into his arms, "You still want to hit the master, do you want to commit insubordination? It seems that I have to teach you a lesson tonight~"
"Hehehe, Master, punish Yiran as much as you want~" Nestled in Ye Xuan's arms, Meng Yiran's martial spirit has been retracted, and his arms are on Ye Xuan's neck.
"Okay, it's dark, let's find a place to spend the night first." Without pushing Meng Yiran away, holding the girl, Ye Xuan felt a breeze under his feet, and soon came to a cave.
The soul beasts that originally lived here had already been killed by Ye Xuan, but due to the pressure of Ye Xuan's soul ring, there would be no soul beasts that were too old nearby.
Three days later, in a small town outside the Xingdou Great Forest.
"Okay, it's time to go back. I'll go see your grandfather then."
"Is it really okay? Grandpa is about to break through to Soul Douluo recently. Is it really okay for the master to face him?" On the top floor of Tiandou Hotel, on the wide bed, Meng Yiran and Dou Dou were lying next to Ye Xuan.
After hearing Ye Xuan's words, Meng Yiran sat up all of a sudden. The thin quilt slipped off, revealing the girl's snow-white body. Ye Xuan pinched Dou Dou's cheek on the other side to wake the girl up.
"Hey, is it dawn?" Dou Dou rubbed his eyes lazily with his eyelashes trembling slightly. Last night, after feeding Dou Dou whale glue to replace the first soul ring, Ye Xuan fought with the two women until the early morning. With the strengthening of the soul ring, Meng Yiran barely tied with the horny Doudou, and the two girls showed a strong desire to win in a strange place.
"What are you worried about? Remember to practice well after you return to the family. Just contact me when you reach level 30. Don't ask your grandparents to help you find the third soul ring." After lifting the quilt, the sudden coolness made the two girls curl up, and then they quickly washed and dressed with Ye Xuan who got out of bed, and soon finished breakfast.
"But, every time the soul hunting grandpa and grandma come out together, hey, grandpa doesn't seem to recognize you as the master yet?"
"It's okay, I met your grandfather today, and he won't ask too much in the future."
"Really? The master is still the most powerful..."
The three of them walked towards Soto City while talking. Soon, in the VIP room of the fighting soul field, Ye Xuan leaned against the back of the sofa, and the two girls took turns feeding him fruits on the left and right.
"Mr. Yin Yue, these are gifts for you. I am the new supervisor, my last name is Ao~"
A maid came forward with her head down, and held out the tray in her hand. A ring lay quietly in the middle. After a casual glance, Doudou beside him picked up the ring, checked it, and put it into his pendant casually, "Thank you, Supervisor Ao, for your kindness, but the master is not going to fight spirits today, just to meet people. Supervisor Ao, if you have anything to say, please talk to him later."
"Okay, then I won't bother Mr. Yin Yue." Stopping the maid who seemed to want to speak, Supervisor Ao nodded with a smile, and the two quickly left the VIP room.
"Manager, why are you so polite to a Soul Sect? Even if he got the diamond badge, he is only a fourth ring. You obviously have the cultivation of a Soul Emperor, and you are not at the same level as the previous auxiliary Soul King. You should be tougher!"
"Go to the low-level fighting soul field later. There is no need for smart people like you here." Manager Ao waved his hand with a gloomy face, and drove the maid away like a fly. The followers behind saw Manager Ao's face and rushed up to drag the maid away.
How could Manager Ao not know that Ye Xuan was only a Soul Sect, but which low-level soul master who could get a diamond badge was an ordinary person? Not to mention the other girl on the sofa just now, Director Ao shook his head, trying to forget the scene he saw, "Damn, I saw something I shouldn't have seen when I was giving a gift. Go and deal with the maid just now. Don't keep her this time. She saw something she shouldn't have seen."
A figure dressed in black nodded, and as he disappeared from Director Ao's sight, a chill drifted towards the direction where the maid was dragged away. Director Ao, who had just arrived, recognized Meng Yiran's identity.
As one of the major families in Soto City, the Dragon Snake Family, the reputation of the peerless dragon snake has begun to take shape, and as their granddaughter, Meng Yiran's characteristics were naturally remembered by the seniors of most service places.
"Should we notify Senior Dragon Snake and the others? Let's wait and see who Mr. Yin Yue wants to meet, so that the flood will not flush the Dragon King Temple." Sitting in his office, Director Ao was a little irritable. After thinking for a long time, the appearance of the chilly feeling attracted his attention.
"Have you cleaned it up?" Facing the inquiry of Director Ao, the man in black nodded and handed over the photo stone, revealing the shocked and desperate expression of the maid inside.
"Go to the vicinity of the VIP room and confirm who Yin Yue wants to meet. If you see it, come back and inform me. If you are discovered, no matter who discovers you, just commit suicide."
He nodded again expressionlessly and disappeared in the office.
"Old woman, are you sure you are not kidding me?"
"How could I kid you? Even if I kid you, I won't kid you!"
"Humph! Is this the place?" Looking at the VIP room in front of him, a gleam of light flashed in Meng Shu's eyes. This is a room that only those with sapphire fighting spirit level or above can have. He nodded imperceptibly, looked to the side with his peripheral vision, and then knocked on the door.
"Come in."
The door closed, and the man in black not far away broke out in cold sweat. His figure quickly disappeared in the fighting arena. A few minutes later, a scream was heard in an alley a few streets away, and a silent body appeared on the ground.
"It seems to be the Dragon Snake Family's own business. Fortunately, we didn't get involved." Looking at the information sent back by the man in black before he committed suicide, Director Ao sighed, got up and left the office, "The previous gift was wasted, and I have to be prepared to apologize later. Cross, that kid, how can he be so lucky..."
"Yi Ran, have you been with this kid?" In the VIP room, Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang sat on the sofa opposite Ye Xuan, while Meng Yi Ran leaned against Ye Xuan at this time, and Dou Dou stood behind Ye Xuan.
"Yes, Grandpa~ I have been with the young master these days." Facing Meng Shu's somewhat sharp gaze, Meng Yi Ran spoke in a low voice.
"Young Master? Old woman, are you hiding something from me?" As soon as Meng Yiran opened his mouth, Meng Shu reacted instantly, his face changed drastically, and he stood up from the sofa, with seven soul rings, two yellow, three purple, and one black, appearing under his feet.
"Ah, what are you in such a hurry for~" Unexpectedly, Meng Yiran was exposed before the conversation even started. Ye Xuan raised his hand helplessly, and for a moment the VIP room seemed to be covered by a thin film, and the scattered pressure was blocked all at once.
"Old woman, you'd better explain to me what the young master in Yiran's mouth means." Meng Shu, who seemed to have noticed the changes around him, but could not find anything unusual, retreated and directly moved away from Chao Tianxiang beside him.
"Alas, Yiran~" Chao Tianxiang sighed and stood up next to Ye Xuan's sofa. After touching her granddaughter's head, she looked at her husband indifferently, "Old man, you can't resist. The young master's strength is beyond our reach even if we work together."
"You mean this kid?" Meng Shu looked gloomy with a look of doubt on his face. He had just burst out with might to get the protector of the young man in front of him to come out, but Chao Tianxiang's words seemed to indicate that this young man had no predecessors following him.
"Why, you don't even believe what your wife said?" As Ye Xuan stood up, eight soul rings emerged from under his feet. The light voice fell into Meng Shu's ears but was extremely harsh.
"Soul Douluo... How is it possible, such a young Soul Douluo..." Looking at the eight rhythmic soul rings, Meng Shu clenched his dragon head staff tightly, his knuckles slightly white, "Senior, why do you want to tease me like this? Since you are interested in Yiran's talent, we will naturally not refuse you to take her away."
Ignoring the title of "Young Master" just now, Meng Shu took back his martial soul soul ring, looked at Chao Tianxiang and Meng Yiran in front of him with a bitter smile, with a little pleading in his tone, as if he wanted to get Ye Xuan's recognition.
"Sure enough, you don't want to believe it~" The mask on his face was taken off, and Ye Xuan's young face was revealed, with a relaxed tone, "Forget it, just a little effort."
With a flash of his body, Ye Xuan instantly appeared in front of Meng Shu, and the surrounding space suddenly shrank, and the old man in front of him was controlled in place. With shock in his eyes, Meng Shu just wanted to speak, and Ye Xuan's hand touched his forehead.
"Old man, why bother? You and the young master are so upset. We've clearly told you to be mentally prepared~" Standing next to her granddaughter, Chao Tianxiang looked at Meng Shu's gradually losing focus and complained in a low voice.
"Grandma, after this meeting, the master asked me to go back with you first, and said that I have to practice until level 30 before we can meet again. How about you persuade the master to let me follow him?" There were no outsiders around, Meng Yiran changed his address back, turned his head to look at Chao Tianxiang next to him, and asked with a little shyness in his tone.
"Yi Ran, you should listen to the young master's arrangement. However, since you are already a great soul master, it seems that you don't need our help for future soul rings. In this case, it's no problem to go out and gain some experience. You don't need to care about the family's affairs. Moreover, this family has always belonged to the young master.
No matter who comes, no one can take it away. Do you understand?" Looking at Meng Yi Ran's expectant gaze, Chao Tianxiang responded in a low voice. But even if she lowered her voice, everyone present was a soul master. How could they not hear the conversation between the two? Even Dou Dou, who had the lowest soul power level, turned his head away and pretend nothing happened.
Ye Xuan, who was in front of Meng Shu, naturally heard the conversation between the old and the young. He didn't expect Meng Yi Ran to tell tales like a grandmother. He laughed a little and sat back on the sofa, rubbing his wrist. Meng Shu in front had come back to his senses.
"Young Master."
"Okay, let your spouse have a good chat with you. You can take care of these two people. Your mission is the same as theirs." He handed over a small booklet with detailed information about Dai Mubai and Oscar. It also had the same mission as the two people, but compared to these two people, the Dragon Snake Family is much more likely to bring rewards.
"Okay, then my wife and I will go back first, and Yiran will follow the young master. How about that?"
"Okay, okay, you push your granddaughter out, right? You have already talked, what else can I say?" After hearing the conversation between the old and the young, Ye Xuan understood that Meng Yiran could not go back to the family.
Even if Ye Xuan asked her to leave him, she would appear in Soto City and the outskirts of Xingdou Great Forest because of her experience. "In that case, you go back first. If you find anything, just send it here. If there is a clue on the last three pages of that booklet, please contact me in person."
The last three pages of that booklet record the waterfall of Xingdou Great Forest, the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire in the Sunset Forest, the wild land of the northern border, and the city of killing. Ye Xuan has not found these three places yet. Although he does not hold much hope, he still gives the known clues to his servants.
Now Ye Xuan's subordinates can be divided into several categories. For the consumable dead soldiers, only the soul beasts belong to this category for the time being; the subordinates used for work, such as Dai Mubai and the dragon and snake combination belong to this category; the vases used for viewing, Doudou, the two sisters and Meng Yiran belong to this category; as for the sex slaves used as toys and the partners who move forward together, there are already some candidates for the former, but the latter is always hard to find.
