"Hey, that snake's dead. Are you alright?"
Upon hearing this, the girl snapped out of her daze, nodded hurriedly, still looking somewhat frightened, and said, "I...I'm fine, thank you."
Tang Chuan waved his hand, saying nothing more, and casually slung the gun over his shoulder, his gaze falling into the deeper woods, his eyes sharp as lightning:
"It's getting dark, we need to leave this area as soon as possible... That attack was too loud and there was a bloody smell. If it attracts other soul beasts, we'll be in trouble."
After saying that, he set off towards the edge of the forest.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, the girl quickly nodded, clutching her chest to calm her rapid breathing, and then hurried after Tang Chuan.
The two walked side by side on the damp forest path, sunlight filtering through the leaves, their feet on a layer of soft, damp fallen leaves, the air still carrying the lingering scent of soul beasts' blood.
Without turning his head, Tang Chuan asked, "I've seen you in town. You must be from Tianshui Academy, right? I remember you had a teacher leading the group, so why are you alone now?"
"Also, aren't all the martial souls of your Tianshui Academy water or ice attribute? Why are you in the Star Dou Great Forest? Shouldn't you be in the far north obtaining spirit rings?"
Upon hearing this, the girl paused for a moment, then said softly with a hint of apology, "Um... I am a student from Tianshui Academy. This time, we are led by my older sister, Shui Bing'er, along with three teachers. The original plan was to split into teams and enter the outer area to search for suitable soul beast targets."
"As for why we didn't go to the far north, it's because there are lakes in the Star Dou Great Forest, and naturally, there are water-attribute spirit beasts there too. Besides, the far north is too far from our academy, making travel inconvenient. Our teacher only takes us there when we're obtaining ten-thousand-year spirit rings!"
She paused, lowered her gaze slightly, bit her lip, and continued:
"My main purpose this time was to find a water-attribute spirit beast as my second spirit ring. After the team entered the forest, we split into three groups. I was in a group with one of the teachers, searching along the northern swamp. But unexpectedly, that teacher suddenly received a signal halfway there, saying that one of the groups had been attacked and he needed to get there as quickly as possible."
"So he took me to the edge of the forest and told me to wait outside."
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan frowned slightly: "And then you didn't listen?"
The girl lowered her head somewhat awkwardly.
"I just wanted to take another look, so I secretly ran back into the forest. I saw a stream over there, where water-attribute spirit beasts might be active. As a result, a nearly thousand-year-old Netherscale Spotted Serpent suddenly jumped out of the swamp, and I was no match for it at all."
Tang Chuan snorted lightly, saying noncommittally, "You're not very old, but you're quite bold, daring to wander around alone on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest."
"Aren't you alone too?" the girl pouted and retorted, "Judging from your appearance, you should be younger than me."
After absorbing his first spirit ring, Tang Chuan grew even taller and became more robust. Although he didn't look very old, he exuded a heroic aura.
Tang Chuan glanced at the girl. Still being stubborn? If he hadn't absorbed his first spirit ring and happened to be nearby, she probably would have been swallowed whole by that Netherscale Snake.
After a moment's hesitation, Tang Chuan continued, "By the way, what's your name?"
"My name is Shui Yue'er." The girl looked up, her watery eyes staring at Tang Chuan, looking like a lovesick fool.
A hint of surprise flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes, and he thought to himself:
"So she's Shui Bing'er's younger sister."
As they walked, suddenly, a soft exclamation came from behind them.
"Ah!" Shui Yue'er paused, looked down, and discovered that her right arm was stained with blood.
Upon hearing the noise, Tang Chuan immediately turned around, frowned, and quickly walked up to her.
"What happened? Did you get bitten by that snake?" He squinted, his voice serious, and asked in a deep voice.
Shui Yue'er was taken aback for a moment, then quickly looked down to check, before shaking her head with a somewhat unnatural expression: "No. I must have been scratched by a tree branch when I was running away; I hadn't noticed it at all."
"A tree branch?"
Tang Chuan's eyes turned slightly cold. He remained silent for half a second, then said nothing more. Instead, he extended his right hand and slowly placed it near Shui Yue'er's wound.
Shui Yue'er was taken aback: "What are you going to do?"
"Don't move."
As soon as he finished speaking, a faint blue-gold light appeared in Tang Chuan's palm, as gentle and not dazzling as a spring breeze, like some kind of warm life force pulsating.
Wildfire cannot burn it all; the spring breeze brings it back to life!
The healing soul skill brought by the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone was quietly activated at this moment.
The next second, a blue-silver light quietly emerged from Tang Chuan's palm, like tiny streams flowing slowly down Shui Yue'er's arm.
Under the blue-gold light, the wound that had been bleeding profusely began to heal rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. The bleeding stopped, the torn skin slowly closed, leaving no scars.
In less than ten seconds, Shuiyue'er's arm was completely healed, without even a trace of redness.
"alright."
Tang Chuan withdrew his hand and said calmly.
Shui Yue'er stared blankly at her smooth, new-looking arm, her expression filled with disbelief: "You... what kind of soul skill is this? It can actually heal injuries? Are you a support-type soul master?"
"My martial soul is Blue Silver Grass."
Tang Chuan replied calmly, his expression serene: "It has a certain healing ability."
After saying that, he continued walking forward.
Upon hearing this, Shui Yue'er froze on the spot, a hint of emotion flickering in her eyes.
Blue Silver Grass? Can such a useless martial soul as Blue Silver Grass be cultivated? But I clearly felt an extremely rich life force just now, which is definitely not something an ordinary Blue Silver Grass soul master could possess.
"Blue Silver Grass... How is this possible..."
At this moment, Tang Chuan ignored her astonishment and instead began to silently calculate in his mind:
"Now that I have absorbed the right leg bone of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, it not only grants me the ability to fly, but also gives me a healing soul skill. All I need to do now is continue to strengthen my life force, and with the help of Blue Silver Grass, I can forge a path completely different from Tang San's."
"Furthermore, my choice of spirit rings will no longer be limited to the traditional healing-type plant spirit beasts chosen by healing spirit masters. Because I have the healing spirit skill brought by the right leg bone of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, I only need to continuously absorb the spirit rings of powerful plant-type spirit beasts to nourish the Blue Silver Grass with the power of life, making it an immortal being."
"After all, as long as the vitality is strong enough, the healing ability will naturally improve as well."
.........
Half an hour later, Tang Chuan led Shui Yue'er out of the Star Dou Great Forest.
At this moment, it was almost evening, and the sunset painted the sky red, dyeing the treetops of large areas red.
The eaves of the inns in the distant town are faintly visible, and a few birds occasionally fly across the sky, adding a touch of tranquility to the world.
Tang Chuan stopped and looked into the distance, saying, "The town is just ahead. You wait here for your teacher and don't wander off."
Upon hearing this, Shui Yue'er looked at Tang Chuan's cold and stern face and nodded gently:
"I understand... Thank you."
Tang Chuan paused for a moment, then waved his hand and set off towards the town.
Just then, Shui Yue'er finally couldn't help but ask softly, "You still haven't told me... your name."
"Tang Chuan."
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan paused slightly, his shadow stretched long under the slanting rays of the setting sun. He didn't turn around, but simply raised one hand and waved it slightly.
"I think we'll meet again!"
