Chapter 407 One Soul and One Demonic Beast Guard Xie Lanzhi

Mu Qing retrieved the Soul-Locking Bead from the dimensional space where Xie Lanzhi had previously resided. Xie Aotian eagerly took the Soul-Locking Bead and cast a tracking spell.

The Soul-Locking Pearl shone brightly and then flew eastward.

Xie Aotian, Mu Qing, and Murong Yu followed closely behind. After leaving the city, Xie Aotian took out his airship, a seventh-grade magic boat that he had personally crafted.

They were all made of the finest materials. Although they weren't as opulent as the one he usually used, they exuded understated luxury and were several times faster than the previous one.

The group followed the guidance of the Soul-Locking Pearl eastward without saying a word.

Seeing that everyone was silent, especially Xie Aotian, who had a long face and was radiating coldness as if it were free, Huo Feng also silently shut her mouth.

Inside a cave on Donglai Peak of Dongya Continent.

Xie Lanzhi woke up groggily, and the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was the tense gaze of a soul and a beast.

Ouyang Changqing felt both excited and nervous.

Since receiving news of Xie Lanzhi's passing from the Xie family, he began to wander aimlessly. Later, he followed the cultivators participating in the cultivation world competition to the Eastern Continent.

After wandering around the Tai Xuan Sword Sect for two days without seeing Xie Lanzhi, he left.

Later, after hearing about the town of Lost Souls, I wandered there as if possessed.

Last night, he followed the soul of a person whose soul had left their body, trying to see which evil cultivator was behind it.

Unexpectedly, it wasn't an evil cultivator, but a young demonic beast. The demonic soul beast's cultivation was not strong, but its bloodline had reverted to its ancestral state and awakened its soul control talent.

All souls are affected by it, especially at night.

The demonic soul beast was a small, gray ball with no specific shape, floating in mid-air like a wisp of smoke, unaware of Ouyang Changqing who had infiltrated the human soul.

The demonic beast was originally playing happily with the human soul.

Suddenly, it sensed Xiangxiang's soul drifting towards it; it was Xie Lanzhi, who was asleep.

The moment Xie Lanzhi, whose skin was so white it seemed to glow, appeared, she attracted the attention of all the demonic beasts.

The Demon Soul Beast no longer cared about what Grandpa had said about disturbing the human race and playing with human souls.

Overjoyed, they rushed over and welcomed Xie Lanzhi back into the cave.

Overwhelmed with joy, Ouyang Changqing was so surprised that by the time he came to his senses, his older brother had already been taken back to the cave by the demonic soul beast. He no longer cared about the demonic soul beast's natural restraint on souls.

He slipped into the cave on high alert, intending to fight the demonic beast to rescue his older brother. Unexpectedly, when the demonic beast saw him, it not only did not attack him, but also invited him to play together in a friendly manner.

Ouyang Changqing: "..."

In the end, it evolved into one big and one small, one soul and one demon beast, squatting together in front of Xie Lanzhi watching him sleep.

Ouyang Changqing thought that the Demon Soul Beast was incapable of communicating with him, so he did not take the initiative to communicate with it. The Demon Soul Beast, on the other hand, was completely focused on the white and fragrant soul and did not speak to Ouyang Changqing either.

The soul and the magical beast watched Xie Lanzhi silently all night.

The demonic beast jumped around happily when it discovered that Xie Lanzhi had woken up.

A child's innocent voice echoed in the cave: "Big brother."

"Big brother, I'm Xiao Hun, let's play together."

"Little Soul likes big brother, Little Soul likes big brother..."

Ouyang Changqing: "..."

Just as Ouyang Changqing was about to call out "Big Brother," the Demon Soul Beast beat him to it.

The tension in my heart dissipated, replaced by a sense of helplessness.

Xie Lanzhi stared curiously at the gray shadows that twisted themselves into various shapes in mid-air, blinking her eyes with a cute and innocent look.

Ouyang Changqing had never seen such an older brother before.

When he met Xie Lanzhi in his youth, Xie Lanzhi was already a bright and handsome young man, with an elegant and refined demeanor.

Seeing Xie Lanzhi now, she seems less aristocratic and more childlike than the older brother I remember, and no longer so unattainable.

Ouyang Changqing gazed intently at Xie Lanzhi, tentatively calling out, "Brother Xie..."
