Chapter 26 True brothers are those who are there when you need a woman.
Chapter 26 A true brother is someone who will be your woman when you need her!
Although his eyes were deep, Tang Chuan's resolve remained unwavering, his mind racing as he considered every possible solution—Soul Skill? Simulation!
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into his mind.
"Red King?!"
"Got it!"
Just as those several ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts suddenly leaped up, their sharp claws whistling as they tore through the air, and pounced towards Qian Renxue.
"boom!!!"
A violent roar suddenly rang out, and a crimson lightning-like figure plummeted from the sky, crashing heavily in front of Qian Renxue.
The moment the figure landed, a fiery wave swept across the ground, causing the earth to crack and dust to fly, as if a mountain had collapsed, instantly scaring away those ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.
"roar!!!"
With a soul-stirring roar, the crimson figure finally appeared clearly.
It was a three-headed lion-shaped behemoth, its entire body blood-red, with red flames burning on its body, and its pupils filled with endless majesty and rage—it was none other than the Crimson King, one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.
Three-headed Red Demon Mastiff!
The Crimson King suddenly raised one of its heads, its eyes blazing with fury as it swept its gaze around. The ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts that had been eager to try their luck froze instantly under its gaze!
"roar--"
Another angry roar rang out.
The next moment, the massive bodies of these ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts began to tremble and retreat, some even turning their heads to flee, scattering into the forest like mice seeing a cat.
"What's going on? Why did this guy save me?"
Staring at this sudden scene, Qian Renxue froze on the spot, her face full of confusion. For a moment, she even forgot the thought of resisting and escaping.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion stared in utter astonishment at the scene before it: the soul beasts scattered, and the Crimson King suddenly appeared to save the humans. It spoke in human language:
"Red King? What are you doing?"
The next second, its golden eyes narrowed abruptly, and the vertical eye in the center of its forehead suddenly opened, emitting an eerie scarlet light, as if it were investigating something.
"No, you're not the Crimson King!" the three-eyed golden lion murmured, its voice surprisingly clear and crisp, filled with anger and shock.
"roar--"
"You're asking for it!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion roared again, and the surrounding forest seemed to tremble. Golden and red light shot into the sky, and the huge soul power fluctuation was like a volcanic eruption!
As soon as it finished speaking, it leaped up, golden flames erupting from its claws, and pounced directly towards the location of the Crimson King, as if it wanted to tear this imposter apart completely.
Not far away, the Crimson King's figure suddenly trembled, and its blood-red body began to twist and shrink. Its crimson hair, muscles, and claws rapidly retracted, and in an instant, it transformed into a young man dressed in blue—Tang Chuan!
"I knew I'd been seen through!" Tang Chuan cursed under his breath, his gaze turning cold. The next second, he retreated rapidly, then knelt down and picked up the barely alive Qian Renxue from the ground. He muttered to himself, "This woman is really stupid. She actually dared to covet the Emperor Beast."
However, just as he pulled Qian Renxue into his arms, the massive body of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion rapidly approached with a violent current of energy, as if it could devour them both in the next second!
The claws were already upon them, only a few meters away!
"Bang—!"
Tang Chuan was prepared. While holding Qian Renxue, the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone erupted with a blazing blue-gold light. With the infusion of soul power, his body suddenly rose up, turning into a golden light that shot straight up and was suspended dozens of meters in the air in the blink of an eye!
The difference in that strike was only a hair's breadth.
The three-eyed golden lion's claws narrowly grazed Tang Chuan's feet, leaving a trail of afterimages!
"What! He can actually fly?"
The three-eyed golden lion roared, its forehead eye blazing with demonic light, and it spoke in a fit of impotent rage.
Hovering in mid-air, Tang Chuan looked down at Qian Renxue, who was somewhat unconscious in his arms. Feeling her still weak but steady breathing, he gently exhaled and said:
"This is really troublesome."
Immediately, he raised his head and looked down at the three-eyed golden lion.
At this moment, the imperial auspicious beast was glaring at him with its head raised, its vertical eyes gleaming with demonic light, golden flames burning wildly under its limbs, and a chilling pressure pressing down like a mountain, as if it would rise into the air at any moment and tear Tang Chuan to pieces.
But the truth is, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion can't fly at all. Right now, it's scratching the ground in front of it with its claws, looking very angry.
The reason it was able to intercept Qian Renxue flying in the air was because it summoned flying ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts from nearby. However, these flying soul beasts were all scared away by the roar of the Crimson King that Tang Chuan had just transformed into. Some of them were so frightened that they defecated and urinated as they flew away.
Looking at the three-eyed golden lion, which resembled a difficult-to-please puppy when it got angry, Tang Chuan remained unmoved, even smiling and gently waving his hand at it.
"Goodbye, auspicious beast. Don't be angry; getting angry is bad for your health. I was just passing by, hehe."
His tone was relaxed, but the moment his words fell, a burst of blue-gold light erupted beneath his feet.
"Whoosh—"
The next second, Tang Chuan shot through the air like an arrow, his figure drawing an extreme arc in the sky above the forest, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the distant green horizon.
"ah!!!"
"Damn human, don't let me see you again, or I will tear you to pieces!" The three-eyed golden lion roared to the sky, its golden light spreading like a tide, directly shattering and knocking down several ancient trees around it, and cracking the ground inch by inch!
A few hours later, on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.
As night slowly fell, only the chirping of insects and the occasional sound of the wind remained in the dense forest.
Above the sky, stars twinkled, casting a soft silver glow through the gaps in the leaves.
In a clearing surrounded by dense woods, a campfire crackled and popped, its warm light illuminating the surroundings.
Not far from the campfire, under an ancient tree, a blond man lay quietly.
He was a handsome man, but at this moment his brows were slightly furrowed and his face was a little pale, though his breathing was steady.
"Well……"
He stirred slightly, then slowly opened his eyes.
A hint of confusion flickered in Qian Renxue's pupils in the firelight. After a moment, she coughed softly and raised her hand to touch her chest.
The fingertip touched a layer of blood that had already scabbed over. Although the wound had not yet healed, the intense pain had subsided, indicating that it had undergone extremely meticulous treatment.
Slightly struggling to sit up, Qian Renxue warily scanned her surroundings. When her gaze fell on the back of the young man by the campfire, she couldn't help but pause in surprise.
In the firelight, the boy in blue was half-squatting beside the fire, fiddling with a cleaned rabbit. The rabbit meat slowly roasted to a golden brown over the flames, filling the air with its aroma.
The boy moved calmly and looked focused, as if he had anticipated the awakening of the person behind him, but he did not turn around.
Qian Renxue opened her mouth slightly, her voice still somewhat weak: "It was you... who saved me?"
Tang Chuan didn't turn around, but simply said, "It wasn't really a rescue, just something I did on the side."
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome," the young man replied softly, still without turning around, his tone commanding, "Now that you're awake, don't move around. Your injuries haven't fully healed yet."
Qian Renxue remained silent for a moment, then looked down at her robes and found that they had been cleaned and bandaged. She was slightly startled.
Then, a complex look flashed across her golden pupils.
Slowly sitting up, Qian Renxue's gaze fell once more on the back of the boy who was flipping the grilled meat not far away. Her voice was weak but carried a hint of inquiry: "What's your name?"
"Tang Chuan." Tang Chuan didn't turn around, but simply replied.
"Tang Chuan?" Qian Renxue murmured softly, then her eyes flickered slightly before she spoke, "My name is... Xuehe."
Her tone was slightly hesitant, and a barely perceptible glint flashed in her eyes.
At this moment, Qian Renxue is still disguised as Xue Qinghe and should not reveal her identity. The name Xuehe is both self-consistent and not too abrupt.
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan turned to look at him, his gaze sweeping over his short blond hair and handsome yet slightly frail face, before casually asking:
"Xuehe? That's quite an elegant name."
Actually, I was thinking to myself, "You're quite the actor!"
If I hadn't read Tang Jia Da Lu, I might have actually been fooled by you.
After saying that, Tang Chuan turned around and continued to focus on roasting the soft-boned rabbit in his hands.
"What is the background of this young man?" Qian Renxue pondered to herself as she looked at Tang Chuan again. As the heir of the Spirit Hall, she was naturally very vigilant.
With her judgment, she naturally knew that unless one was a flying-type Soul Master, even a Soul Douluo powerhouse could not possibly levitate in the air like that.
But the boy in front of her, named Tang Chuan, could not only fly, but also flew extremely fast. When he led her away from the encirclement of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, it was as if he was teleporting.
Moreover, it can transform into the appearance of a soul beast.
Qian Renxue became increasingly alarmed as she thought about it, and her brows furrowed involuntarily.
Even if she were stupid, she could see that the boy in front of her was full of secrets. However, he had saved her life after all, and she couldn't repay kindness with enmity, could she?
If you covet someone's soul bone and say, "You're eating rabbits," you're already courting death!
Qian Renxue would never do something so shameless.
As long as the other party doesn't harm me or oppose the Spirit Hall, they are my friend!
Just then.
"Gurgle—" An abrupt and awkward sound rang out as Qian Renxue's stomach let out a series of rumbling noises.
She was momentarily stunned, a barely perceptible blush appearing on her face.
Tang Chuan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, glanced at her sideways, and seeing that the latter's expression was somewhat unnatural, he immediately smiled nonchalantly.
"Hungry?" Tang Chuan casually tore off a whole hind leg from the golden-brown, fragrant rabbit in his hand, along with some crispy roasted skin and meat, and handed it to Qian Renxue.
"Thank you, Brother Tang Chuan!" Qian Renxue glanced at the rabbit leg in Tang Chuan's hand, remained silent for a moment, and finally reached out to take it.
"Become my brother!?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan's face immediately showed a hint of awkwardness. Looking at Qian Renxue, who was dressed as a man, he smiled noncommittally, suddenly recalling a line from the novel "Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect":
A true brother is someone who, when you need a woman, will be your woman!
