Chapter 14: Setting Off! Sunset Forest [Seeking Follow-up Reads]

Very quickly, the news of Lin Yu knocking down Ye Xiuqi with one kick spread rapidly throughout the Pope Palace.

A small display of his skills once again shocked the entire Pope Palace.

This matter soon reached the ears of the Seven Great Elders.

Upon hearing of this, the Offering Elders all smiled knowingly.

Qian Daoliu was even more proud, saying: "Little Yu will surely be the most shining new star among all the geniuses of our Spirit Hall!"

At the same time, Bibi Dong, on the Pope's throne, was also greatly shocked: "What did you say!? That Lin Yu has already cultivated to 18th-level soul power? And with one kick, he took care of a Core Disciple who had the strength of a nearly 21st-level Great Spirit Master?"

"Ye, yes, Your Holiness the Pope," Xie Yue said with his head lowered.

"This brat is even more of a genius than I imagined." Bibi Dong felt gloomy inside, and murderous intent flashed through her mind once again.

A year ago, when she sensed that Lin Yu had obtained a God Position inheritance, Bibi Dong had already had such thoughts.

But as the successor to the Rakshasa God, Bibi Dong knew deeply how difficult it was to become a god; she knew that just because one obtained a God Position inheritance did not mean one could definitely cultivate to become a god, as there was also a possibility of failure.

Therefore, Bibi Dong did not take Lin Yu too much to heart.

Yet today, when Lin Yu first displayed his skills, he showed his sharp edge and fully revealed his heaven-sent talent, forcing Bibi Dong to once again feel wary of Lin Yu.

Bibi Dong's eyes were somewhat cold: "This child is highly valued by the Offering Hall, and with that group of Offering Elders protecting him, if I have the intention to eliminate Lin Yu..."

"Forget it, let's observe for a few more years. If he grows too fast, I will have to find a way to eliminate him!"

The next day, early morning.

Lin Yu, who was fast asleep, was suddenly awakened by the sound of his bedroom door being kicked open heavily.

Lin Tian rushed in with an excited face and showered Lin Yu's little face with kisses: "Mwah~ mwah~ mwah!"

"Hahaha! Good! You brat, you're capable! As expected of my, Lin Tian's, son, to be able to defeat a 19th-level Spirit Master with one kick after only one year of cultivation; Daddy is happy for you!"

Lin Yu wiped the saliva his father had left on his face with a look of disgust and said helplessly: "Dad, your news is too well-informed."

"Dad was too excited and woke you up; you go back to sleep for a while, go back to sleep."

"I won't sleep anymore, I might as well get up."

Ever since Qian Renxue hammered him awake with her fist a year ago, Lin Yu no longer had the habit of sleeping in.

He would always get up at seven o'clock every morning.

While washing up, Lin Yu said to Lin Tian, who had not yet left: "Dad, I am going on a long trip today."

"Mm, I heard the Great Elder mention it. Go, child; with the two Offering Elders Qianjun and Jiangmo protecting you, Daddy is very reassured!"

"Heh heh, then I'm off."

After getting dressed, Lin Yu stepped out of the Angel Clan Territory.

After meeting up with Qianjun and Jiangmo, the three of them boarded a carriage and immediately set off for the Sunset Forest.

"Finally going to the Sunset Forest; I wonder if Qian Renxue has finished things over there."

Three months ago, Lin Yu had already received the news.

The Heaven Dou Empire's Second Prince, Xue Luochuan, died unexpectedly, which meant that Qian Renxue had already gotten rid of the Heaven Dou Second Prince.

Now, all that remained was to stage a fake death to escape, and she would be able to leave the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

But because of the Second Prince's death, the Heaven Dou royal family had been watching Qian Renxue even more closely.

First, they were somewhat suspicious that the deaths of the Second Prince and the Third Prince were related to Qian Renxue.

Second, they were also afraid that the First Prince, Xue Qinghe, whom Qian Renxue was disguised as, would also die.

Therefore, it was likely extremely difficult for Qian Renxue to fake her death and escape now.

"It doesn't matter if it's a bit slow; I just hope she doesn't rush for success and run into trouble," Lin Yu thought to himself, watching the carriage slowly drive away from Wuhun City.

This was the second time in seven years that Lin Yu had left Wuhun City.

The first time was a year ago, when Qian Daoliu took him to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain a Spirit Ring.

And this time, the destination was the Sunset Forest, located near Tiandou City, which was quite far from Wuhun City and required at least ten days of travel, passing through several cities of various sizes along the way.

Therefore, this should be the first time in the true sense that Lin Yu would come into contact with and understand the human world outside of Wuhun City.

Most areas of this world were desolate mountains and wild ridges with no one living there.

Humans basically lived densely in cities, as well as in villages and towns surrounding the cities; there were not many places where humans lived far from cities.

Just as Lin Yu had anticipated, this world was actually quite dangerous.

Apart from the good public order in cities and surrounding villages, there was almost no security living outside; it was chaotic, and the public order was very poor.

Even in cities, there were many local officials, powerful figures, and nobles who oppressed the common people and acted recklessly.

Along the few cities he had passed on this journey, Lin Yu had already seen quite a few imperial officials and nobles bullying others by abusing their power.

Although the Spirit Hall had influence spread across the entire Dalu, it also had quite a few such "rats," but what Lin Yu could foresee was that the two great empires indeed had even more rats.

Soon, more than ten days later.

Lin Yu, Qianjun, and Jiangmo were about to arrive at the Sunset Forest.

"Little Yu! Ahead is the Sunset Forest. This place is filled with poisonous mist, and within it, there are even a large number of poisonous Soul Beasts over a thousand years old. But don't worry, Grandpa Qianjun will carry you in in a moment."

"With Grandpa Qianjun's soul power protection, these poisonous mists absolutely cannot hurt you," Qianjun Douluo said with a confident face.

Jiangmo Douluo said: "Brother, you protect Little Yu well; if we encounter Dugu Bo later, I will handle him."

"Little Yu, don't worry, this trip, we will definitely help you find that so-called Immortal Herb resource you mentioned."

"Thank you, Grandpa Qianjun, Grandpa Jiangmo."

Lin Yu was naturally at ease; Qianjun and Jiangmo were both 96th-level Title Douluo, and such strength could easily handle Dugu Bo.

"This child, why are you saying thank you to us? But what exactly is the Immortal Herb resource you mentioned?" the twin brothers were very curious.

Lin Yu explained: "They are just some rare and exotic herbs in the world, and these rare and exotic herbs are almost non-existent in the outside world; it can be said that they are all heaven-sent treasures that are hard to come by in ten thousand years."

"Each of them has different magical effects, among which some are Immortal Herbs that have the effect of strengthening the foundation, nourishing the origin, and improving a Spirit Master's soul power and natural aptitude."

"If used properly, they might even allow powerhouses like you, Grandpa Qianjun and Grandpa Jiangmo, to break through the bottleneck that you haven't been able to advance past for many years."

"Hiss~ is it really that powerful?"

"Hehe, that's right!" Lin Yu smiled.

"Then let's hurry inside and find these Immortal Herb resources as quickly as possible, get on, Little Yu!"

"Mm!"

Lin Yu nodded and leaped onto the back of Title Douluo Qianjun.

Two peak level 96 Title Douluo thus carried Lin Yu and quickly stepped into the Sunset Forest.

Lin Yu was protected by the powerful soul power energy of Title Douluo Qianjun, making it so that those poisonous mists could not threaten him at all.

The poisonous Soul Beasts encountered along the way were also all scared off by their powerful auras.

Not long after.

Qianjun and Jiangmo brought Lin Yu through the range of the Poison Mist Forest and arrived at the central area of the Sunset Forest.
