Chapter 29 No surprises

Chapter 29 If nothing unexpected happens

The group stopped some distance away from the Soul Hunting Forest gate. Without even looking at the tightly closed gate and the tight guards, they walked along the wall and soon found a secret passage.

"Hurry up, the City Lord and Spirit Hall will lead the team personally tomorrow. Tonight is my last chance!"

Teacher Xiao looked around at the four companions around him and fixed his eyes on the old pervert: "The Soul Hunting Forest is extremely dangerous at night. Let's go directly to the center of the forest. I'll trouble you to take care of any soul beasts you encounter along the way."

Although this guy has a history of running away, his strength as a strong man is there. As long as it is not the Thousand-Year-Old Little Gou Ba, he can easily deal with it.

"As for after entering the center of the forest..." Teacher Xiao inadvertently glanced at Xiaodong, who was hugging her waist, showing a cute face but still on guard against the old pervert.

But in fact, Xiaodong has been observing these people with his mental power:

"Hmm~ these two muscular guys are both strong attack type, the skinny guy is agile attack type, wait, there is also an unattractive assistant? Plus Mr. Xiao is a control type, this group of mercenaries is still a perfect lineup?"

"Oh, and this level 41 old pervert who runs away... Tsk tsk, it looks like the Millennium Little Gou Ba is going to be in trouble!"

"But..." The wine-red eyes flashed: "The old pervert has a history of running away! Even if he controls me as a bargaining chip, he will definitely not work too hard in the hunting operation!"

'Also, although this lineup is perfect, they are all just great spirit masters. Their combined strength is not enough to ensure a win against Millennium Little Gou Ba. Otherwise, the city lord and the dean would not both lead the team. Moreover, the mercenaries value their own lives and interests more, and will not fight with Millennium Little Gou Ba, especially when there are one or two casualties...'

"Besides, Teacher Xiao is not a stupid person. Since she thought that I could control the soul beasts so that she could hunt them easily, didn't she consider the possibility that I would control the soul beasts to turn against her and attack this group of people?"

That is to say, if nothing unexpected happens, this group of people will most likely fail in the hunt, and several people will be lost. But Teacher Xiao still came, and she was determined to succeed... She must have a very powerful trump card.

Strong enough to hunt down the Millennium Little Gouba alone... or after he is injured!

The wine-red beauty pupils began to think: "Could it be that..."

Xiaodong thought of something and was slightly surprised. He looked at everyone with pity and sighed: "Douluo Continent is really not as beautiful as I saw in the anime before I traveled through time."

The soul masters who still didn't know their fate looked at each other, full of fighting spirit: "Don't worry, Teacher Xiao."

This makeshift team rushed quickly towards the center of the forest.

They did encounter quite a few ignorant soul beasts on the way, but they were all easily killed by the old pervert. Even if there were a few difficult ones, they were quickly killed with the cooperation of the team. For each dead soul beast, Xiaodong would give it a comforting talisman and a blessing of "Thanks, brother".

This scene made the other members who saw it for the first time laugh. The old pervert didn't care at all, and even showed a bit of satisfaction in his eyes, as if he was imagining what it would be like if Xiaodong was locked in a secret room and broken.

Only Teacher Xiao frowned frequently. In the past, when he led the team to the academy, he just thought it was fun, but this trip was very important and there was no room for wasting time. Several times, he almost couldn't help but tear off his disguised face and bare his fangs to Xiaodong.

But he was afraid that Xiaodong, who was unaware of the situation, would turn against the old pervert, so in order to control the overall situation, he had to hold back.

Fortunately, 'soul comfort' takes very little time, and this 'killing spree' also allowed Xiaodong to accumulate a lot of soul power pool, which directly increased from more than 1000 to 3000, and his own soul power reached level 21!

This was the first time that Xiaodong relied on "Soul Comfort" to improve his soul power level. He didn't expect it to be under such circumstances. This was also the most comfortable time for Xiaodong in Notting in the past six months.

About 2 hours later, the team finally arrived at the center of the forest.

Several people immediately looked at Teacher Xiao inquiringly, asking what to do next.

Teacher Xiao lowered her head to look at the cute little girl who was unwilling to let go of her waist and said, "Xiaodong, I will need your help from now on."

"Ai?"

Xiaodong raised his head and looked at her 'confusedly', but happened to meet Teacher Xiao's malicious eyes that finally revealed themselves!

"Xiao..." Before Xiaodong could finish his words of fear, Teacher Xiao said first: "First soul skill, spider web binding!"

A spider web formed by soul power pounced on Xiaodong and effortlessly tied her up like a dumpling.

"Xiao... Teacher Xiao! What are you doing..." A crying voice came out from the mouth of the actress Xiao Dong. Teacher Xiao, who had been patient all the way, grinned and said, "Didn't I just tell you, Xiao Dong, that the teacher needs your help."

"Why would I need to help you..." Before she finished her words, Teacher Xiao took off the bag tied around her waist, opened the seal, and shook it at Xiaodong. A lump of fluorescent powder fell on her.

"This luster and smell..." The old pervert narrowed his eyes: "Could it be the soul-attracting powder that can attract soul beasts? You actually prepared such a valuable thing?"

"I spent all my savings on this hunt." Teacher Xiao felt very sad, but after seeing the pitiful Xiaodong, he smiled faintly and said, "I'm sorry, Xiaodong, but you have the ability to be immune to the damage of soul beasts, so being a bait shouldn't be a big problem for you, right?"

It was not only to use Xiaodong as bait, but also to verify Xiaodong's story. After all, it was better to confirm the rumors about being close to soul beasts with one's own eyes.

After saying that, he winked at everyone, and whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~ Everyone flew to the surrounding treetops to hide themselves, secretly observing their surroundings and Xiaodong, who was half-sitting in place, at a loss.

About 10 minutes later, rustling sounds were heard all around, and everyone stared at a bush with intense concentration. A few seconds later, an... 800-year-old Nether Wolf appeared in the field of vision, sniffing something, but soon focused its attention on the extremely conspicuous Xiaodong.

Then he slowly began to approach...

"Woo woo woo~ Mr. Wolf, don't eat me." A crying voice sounded in the silent bait trap, and under the gaze of everyone, the Nether Wolf was 20 meters away from Xiaodong. After hearing these words, it stood there in a daze, then let out an "ah", turned around and left.

"This……"

Everyone who saw this scene for the first time was shocked, especially the old pervert who regretted in his heart: "What Xiao Wu said turned out to be true! If I hadn't chosen to run away that afternoon..."
