Chapter 58: Want to Escape? Titan Giant Ape Hunts Tang San

After Gu Yue Na, whom Luo Ye constantly thinks about, saw this content, the corners of her mouth slightly rose, a smile appeared on her face, and she softly said.

You couldn't figure out how to let her leave with you, huh? Looks like I (royal) still need to step in.

Gu Yue Na, kept in the dark, considered herself Luo Ye's savior, feeling quite pleased, she then spoke to the Titan Giant Ape beneath her feet.

From now on, it's up to you. Do you still remember what I (royal) told you to do?

The Titan Giant Ape hurriedly nodded and promised.

Remember, remember, my lord, please rest assured, your subordinate will absolutely not disappoint you!

Gu Yue Na nodded in satisfaction.

Then let's begin the action.

After receiving her order, the Titan Giant Ape didn't waste time, rushing straight to where Zhao Wuji, Tang San, and the others were.

Gu Yue Na concealed her form and lurked in the darkness, silently observing all of this.

Since Luo Ye wanted to sabotage Oscar's soul-hunting operation, Gu Yue Na naturally wanted to help him.

Originally, Long Gong was about to catch up to Zhao Wuji and the others, but after sensing the sudden appearance of the Titan Giant Ape, Long Gong's heart began to race with fear.

He could no longer bother chasing Zhao Wuji, instead fleeing in another direction without hesitation.

Don't think that this Long Gong, a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse, amounts to anything before a Titan Giant Ape, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast.

Feeling Long Gong give up the chase, Zhao Wuji let out a deep sigh of relief, set down the four people in his arms, and couldn't help but grit his teeth and curse.

That damned old thing, I will surely kill him someday.

Ma Hongjun said with a cold, grim gaze.

Don't worry, Teacher Zhao, we'll help you when the time comes.

Oscar also said hatefully.

Besides, Luo Ye, that guy doesn't care about classmate loyalty; he said he wouldn't give me that soul beast even if he destroyed it—such a person doesn't deserve to be a Shrek student.

Dai Mubai rubbed his somewhat dazed head, his double pupils filled with boiling killing intent, and he let out a sinister laugh.

I've long known he's no good; he shouldn't have been allowed into Shrek in the first place.

Tang San also came to hate Luo Ye, but his biggest worry now is Xiao Wu, so he looked at Zhao Wuji and said.

Teacher Zhao, you've taken us four away, but what about Xiao Wu?

Zhao Wuji gave him an annoyed glare.

Do you need to worry about Xiao Wu's safety? You didn't see her staying by Luo Ye's side the whole time?

Just because Luo Ye voluntarily gave that soul beast to Long Gong and Snake Granny, they couldn't possibly harm them.

Dai Mubai also gave a cold smile.

Xiao San, I think Xiao Wu has also been deceived by that bastard Luo Ye; though she's your sister, she's always hanging out with Luo Ye.

Dai Mubai felt he and Tang San would certainly have plenty to talk about.

After all, his fiancée was also taken by Luo Ye, and now Tang San has suffered the same fate; as a man, this is utterly humiliating.

Dai Mubai's heart even gave rise to a dark thought.

Namely, that it would be best if Xiao Wu were abducted by Luo Ye, so that Tang San would surely accept the proposal to join forces and kill Luo Ye.

Apparently to further provoke Tang San, Ma Hongjun whistled nearby, then gave a lecherous smile.

I said before, after seeing Luo Ye's pale face, even if Xiao Wu's feelings for you are deep, over time she will surely transfer her affection elsewhere.

How is it now? Haven't I been right?

Tang San heard a strong tone of mockery in Ma Hongjun's words.

Filled with rage, Tang San glared fiercely at Ma Hongjun, about to explain that Xiao Wu couldn't be the kind of person he described, when he suddenly felt his soul power break through its bottleneck, jumping directly from rank twenty-nine to thirty.

This discovery delighted Tang San, who was about to tell Zhao Wuji, when he heard Zhao Wuji shout.

Run!!!

Dai Mubai, Tang San, and the others clearly saw Zhao Wuji's panicked expression, which was even more fearful than when they faced Long Gong's pursuit.

As if some formidable enemy had appeared.

Just as they were about to ask, they suddenly felt the earth begin to tremble, the tall, sturdy trees started to rustle, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Zhao Wuji didn't even bother to explain, once again grabbing the four of them and sprinting at his fastest speed toward the outside of the Star Dou Great Forest.

However, Zhao Wuji, who possesses the Mighty Golden Bell Bear Martial Soul, is not adept at speed to begin with, let alone when pursued by the Titan Giant Ape, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast.

After only three breaths, the Titan Giant Ape leapt up and then landed before them.

Gloop.

Looking at the enormous creature before them, Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others all swallowed a mouthful of saliva, their eyes filled with fear, their bodies involuntarily trembling slightly.

What is this?

Zhao Wuji's teeth were chattering, and he forced out four words from between his teeth.

Titan Giant Ape!

Zhao Wuji was about to break down.

He finally understood why Long Gong had suddenly abandoned the chase earlier—it wasn't due to the other's sudden kindness, but because Long Gong sensed the presence of the Titan Giant Ape.

But why would the Titan Giant Ape, which always resides in the center of the Star Dou Great Forest, inexplicably come to the outskirts and fixate on them?

Zhao Wuji forced out a difficult smile, looking at the Titan Giant Ape with a fawning expression to appease it.

Um, we're just passing through; we haven't and won't hunt soul beasts, so let's leave now, okay?

Actually, as a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, the Titan Giant Ape can speak human language.

But he kept Gu Yue Na's command in mind, ignoring Zhao Wuji's pleas for mercy, let out a low growl, and launched an attack directly at him.

Seeing that dodging was impossible, Zhao Wuji had no choice but to grit his teeth and unleash his Martial Soul True Body, trying to block the Titan Giant Ape's attack, while also shouting loudly.

You guys run fast, the faster the better—no matter what happens, you must absolutely not turn back!

Zhao Wuji's intention was very clear; he simply wanted to sacrifice himself so that Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others could survive.

The four of them also knew that staying here would not only be of no help to Zhao Wuji, but would instead become a burden.

After merely hesitating for a moment, they all sprang into a frantic run together.

The Titan Giant Ape didn't even glance at the four of them; with a single slap it flung Zhao Wuji flying, and after he tumbled dozens of times in the air, he finally crashed heavily to the ground.

While the Titan Giant Ape was mauling Zhao Wuji, Gu Yue Na, who had been hidden in the darkness, silently followed Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the other four.
