After confirming that Xiao Wu was truly standing firmly, Lin Hao, who had released the back of Xiao Wu's neck, quickly stepped back a distance, displaying the gentlemanly demeanor of the ancients to the fullest extent, and having absolutely no intention of taking advantage of this rabbit in the slightest.

Xiao Wu, who has always been very confident in her appearance and whose occasional glances could bewitch many delinquent teenagers, middle-aged men, and elderly men, and who would then cause trouble for Tang San or Lin Xi, puffed up her chubby cheeks in a huff.

After all, she was a pretty young girl, and after being so visibly rejected, even a rabbit wouldn't bite when cornered! This real bunny-eared girl wanted to kill someone!

Of course, Lin Hao didn't care about this, since she couldn't beat him anyway.

The signal was transmitted and received very quickly; in less than half an hour, all the soul beasts in the mixed zone fled to the outer perimeter like slumbering oxen.

As the ground trembled more and more noticeably and the surrounding temperature suddenly rose, Lin Hao, knowing that the Titan Ape had arrived, looked at Xiao Wu's beautiful, ruby-like eyes one last time and said with utmost seriousness.

“From your previous conversation with Bibi Dong, I could tell that your mother must have died at her hands.”

"But the spirit ring configuration she revealed was two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red. So, as the Pope of the Spirit Hall, even if her ninth spirit ring wasn't the spider-type spirit beast most suitable for her spirit itself, she wouldn't have chosen a spirit beast like the Soft Bone Rabbit."

"The fact that she was able to succeed her teacher Qian Xunji at such a young age and squeeze out other branches of the Qian family to inherit the Spirit Hall shows that when she first became a Title Douluo, she already had the combat power to rival Super Douluo or even Peerless Douluo."

"So you mean she, like Third Brother, has twin martial souls?"

A look of terror flashed in her eyes. Having spent so many years with Tang San, Xiao Wu naturally knew about the power of twin martial souls. After all, Tang San had never used the Clear Sky Hammer in front of outsiders. However, Xiao Wu and Lin Xi had seen him use it more than once when he was making his own hidden weapons for self-defense.

It's just that neither of the two girls had ever seen the Clear Sky Hammer, and because Tang San's personality was so different from that of a real Clear Sky Hammer Soul Master, it was hard to imagine that he possessed the Clear Sky Hammer. But just by looking at Tang Xiao, the only person she had ever met, one could tell how terrifying Tang San could be once he truly grew up!

Clearly, if Tang San is a budding seedling, then Bibi Dong is only one step away from becoming a towering tree: acquiring the nine 100,000-year spirit rings to complete her second spirit!

"It seems you've already thought of this. The Star Dou Great Forest has been able to persist for tens or even hundreds of thousands of years despite humanity's overexploitation. This means that the Star Dou Great Forest must be hiding something very deep. If you can't find those Beast Kings, whether they're hiding or all dead, be careful! Bibi Dong, along with the Spirit Hall behind her, already has the qualifications to hunt down three or more 100,000-year-old spirit beasts on the spot!"

After saying that, he glanced at Xiao Wu, who seemed to have already imagined the scene of Da Ming and Er Ming dying at the hands of that woman, and whose whole body was trembling subconsciously.

Knowing that the Titan Ape had arrived, he turned around and tried to fly away.

But the next moment, a gigantic hand, blotting out the sky and covered with bulging muscles like giant rocks, with bulging veins radiating heat and light like magma, seemed to be able to kill Lin Hao with just a gentle squeeze, and directly grabbed him.

As Lin Hao turned around sensing the danger, he heard Xiao Wu's almost screaming words below.

"Erming, stop! He's my friend!"

However, the only response Xiao Wu received was an even crimson flame from the Titan Ape's outstretched left palm, and a suddenly appearing gravity field.

"Controlled?"

With a thought, he took out a rocket launcher from the system space, quickly switched to a level-six soul-guided fission bomb, and fired it.

Then, accompanied by a deafening roar like a miniature sun, and a scream of extreme pain.

The Titan Ape, whose entire hand was blown to pieces and whose blood was splattered onto the ground like lava, finally broke free from its controlled state.

After glancing in horror at Lin Hao, who was flying in the sky, she grabbed the still somewhat stunned Xiao Wu and headed directly towards the outer area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, showing none of the aura of the Forest King she had in Dou Yi.

At this moment, Lin Hao, who had never been to the Star Dou Great Forest before, suppressed his panic and took out an energy core from his system space and replaced it on the spot.

The level 9 soul-guided fission missile, which was originally intended to be kept as a backup and whose theoretical power was comparable to the level 10 God-Slaying Soul Missile that killed Yun Ming during the third era of Dou Di Zhuan, was also instantly loaded.

Six spirit rings, three purple and three black, appeared, with the Qiluo Tulip hanging above his head, suppressing what was behind him. Lin Hao's eyes, gleaming with a soft blue light, were also fixed on a place where spatial ripples had appeared.

"As expected of the person chosen by that tiger, human, you are truly remarkable! And..."

As he spoke, the imposing man who had already emerged from the spatial passage stared intently at Lin Hao's battle armor and the weapon in his hand.

"So even I can feel threatened? I never expected that after only living in seclusion for ten thousand years, another person like you would emerge."

"But aren't you afraid of raising a tiger that will turn out to be your own enemy?"

The man spoke his last sentence to a certain spot.
