Chapter 45 Xiao Wu's Heart-to-Heart Talk: Crisis Approaches!!
Oscar and Dai Mubai were both dumbfounded.
Not a buddy?
Why is this happening? Not only did it not keep them away from fat people, but it also directly attacked them?
So, after all this, this was also an assist?
Tang San swallowed hard, thinking how fortunate Xiao Wu wasn't that kind of person, otherwise he...
"Brother Hongjun, you still have many options, don't rush to make a decision, okay?"
The girl with the scorpion braid blinked, seemingly teasing, yet also speaking seriously.

Tang San froze.
He heard the sound of his own heart breaking.
After some commotion, the group finally calmed down after Flander stopped them, and Oscar began to absorb his spirit ring.
Taking advantage of the break, the red-haired boy opened his interface and took a look.
Xiao Wu's mission is still in the final stage of "incomplete", but the progress bar seems to have moved forward a little.
If it was 98.9% before, it's now around 99.9%.
In the true sense, only one last step is missing.
However, he had no clue about it. The story of the White Snake was just an experiment. After all, such a story about humans and demons should resonate with a soul beast like Xiao Wu.
It seems to be working, but besides this, what other aspects can we address?
You can't just confess your feelings directly, can you?
Ma Hongjun suddenly felt a headache coming on.
Let's not even talk about whether Tang Shenwang could succeed here.
Even if they succeed, it would undoubtedly kill any future prospects for Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.
This would be a case of losing more than you gain, since these two are also key figures.
Adults aren't children, so of course they want it all.
"Hahahaha, that's awesome, so awesome! I'm having the absolute best today!!"
He was interrupted by a wild laugh as he looked up to see Oscar standing there with his hands on his hips, laughing loudly.
Judging from the aura emanating from him, he had clearly succeeded in absorbing the power and become a Soul Master.
"Stop showing off, tell me, what is your third soul skill?"
Dai Mubai kicked him in annoyance.
I was already in a bad mood, and seeing this kid showing off made me even worse.
"Hmph, divine skill, I can only call it divine skill!"
Oscar, unfazed by being interrupted from his show-off act, raised a finger and laughed arrogantly.
"It will absolutely surprise you, it will truly amaze you, and it might even!"
A sharp claw was held against his neck, and Zhu Zhuqing stared at him coldly without saying a word.
Gumbling—
Oscar shrank back, forcing a smile. "Um, sis...no, sister, I'll tell you, I'll tell you, please don't hit me."
He breathed a sigh of relief when the claw blades left his neck.
"Flying? I can make sausages that will let you fly!!!"
Oscar saw the astonishment in everyone's eyes and immediately became smug again.
"Wow, how long can this thing fly?"
Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up, and the others looked at him with great curiosity.
"Uh, one minute."
Speaking of this, he scratched his head somewhat sheepishly.
"What's the point of that?"
Dai Mubai looked at him speechlessly.
A one-minute flight is of very limited use, whether for traveling or fighting.
"Hmph, that's how shallow you are."
Oscar scoffed. "What if I said it was flying at the speed of a crested serpent for one minute?"
What?!
Everyone was surprised.
If it were flying at the speed of a crested serpent for one minute, the situation would be completely different.
Therefore, it seems that Oscar's claim that this skill is divine is not an exaggeration.
"Uh, is he as fast as Hongjun?"
Ning Rongrong asked with some curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Oscar's smug expression froze.
Hey sis, don't be so sabotaging me. I only have a soul ring from a Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent. How can I possibly compare to that fat guy's freakish real phoenix speed?
"I probably can't beat them."
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"In that case, we battle spirit masters don't need the ability to fly except when we're running away."
Dai Mubai pursed his lips.
"When we're escaping, with Fatty's reflexes, he's more than capable of leading us around most dangers. And what we can't avoid with his one-minute speed like a crested serpent is pretty useless, isn't it?"
Oscar:
That makes so damn good!
Suddenly, he felt that the skills he had were no longer appealing.
"That's not necessarily true."
Flander shook his head. "The ability to mass-produce flight capabilities will have a significant impact no matter what. Besides, Hong Jun also has times when his soul power is exhausted. Alright, let's continue."
Finding a suitable soul beast is no easy task; Oscar's situation was simply a matter of luck.
Soon, the group understood the true meaning of those words.
Several hours passed, and although they encountered quite a few soul beasts, none of them were suitable.
As dusk approached, and the young men and women, whose soul power was not strong, were quite tired, Flander directed everyone to find a suitable place to set up camp.
At least rest and recover your strength first, otherwise encountering a powerful soul beast in this situation would be quite dangerous.
After the tents were set up, everyone rested. Ma Hongjun, thanks to his martial spirit, had recovered his strength quite well, so he came out to help everyone find firewood.
But just as he was about to go back, an unexpected girl stopped him.
"Hongjun, are you free?"
The red-haired boy looked at the girl with the scorpion braid in surprise.
"Xiao Wu, is there something you need?"
The latter nodded without saying a word.
Ma Hongjun then noticed that Xiao Wu's pretty face was pale, her beautiful eyes were flickering, and she was radiating negative emotions.
Seeing this, he simply put down the firewood, cleared out the clean rocks, stretched out his hand to release a flame to heat them slightly, and laid down some dry grass. "Come, sit down and let's talk."
The girl looked at the boy with a hint of surprise and gratitude, then nodded gratefully and sat down gently.
Feeling that comfortable warmth, Xiao Wu's terrible mood inexplicably improved a lot.
"Tell me, what happened?"
The red-haired boy sat down not far away and asked softly.
"Young Master Hongjun."
The girl hugged her knees, her scorpion braid drooping limply, her beautiful eyes dim, gazing blankly at the night sky.
"Are soul beasts truly destined to never be like humans?"
She asked this question, as if she were asking the boy, but also as if she were asking herself.
Why do you say that?
Ma Hongjun shook his head.
"If a spirit beast has love, hate, joy, and sorrow, reason and anger, just like the White Snake Lady."
"What difference would that make from humans? It's just a difference in physical appearance."
The girl was stunned by what she heard.
After a long pause, she seemed to have figured something out. A beautiful smile appeared on her pale face, and her lovely eyes fixed on the red-haired boy. "Indeed, Brother Hongjun, you're different from others."
Before Xiao Wu could finish speaking, she saw the boy's expression suddenly change drastically, and a surge of flames burst forth, shooting into the sky!
At the same time, Zhao Wuji and Flander's heart-wrenching screams rang out.
"Run!!!!"
