Ye Qiu turned around, wiping off the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

"What do I need to do to absorb the thousand-year soul ring?" Zhu Zhuqing, pushing aside her displeasure, now only wanted to become stronger.

"Don't you want to ask if there are any risks?" He extinguished the campfire, looking at her.

"These risks are insignificant compared to staying alive!" She said coldly, even slowly propping herself up against a tree trunk, standing on her right leg, "As long as I can become stronger, I don't mind enduring any hardships!"

"I see." Ye Qiu fell silent. This girl was indeed like the one in the original story—diligent in cultivation, with a resolute character. Despite having the worst talent, she was the most hardworking one.

Taking Blue Silver Emperor into his arms, a hexagram appeared in Ye Qiu's eyes. A horse with iron hooves, which hadn't been ridden for a long time, appeared before him.

"Neigh, help me hold it." He handed her the pot containing Blue Silver Emperor.

Then, he lifted her, and without any warning, Zhu Zhuqing exclaimed, "Ah, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, it seems you have trouble walking. I'll give you a ride!" Ye Qiu placed her on the horseback, casually responding to her earlier question, "To absorb a soul ring, you don't need to prepare anything. Just focus on healing your injuries!"

Ye Qiu led the horse, and Zhu Zhuqing, holding Blue Silver Emperor, rode on its back. They moved slowly through the forest.

With Ye Qiu's Eye of the Sharingan as a means of reconnaissance, many soul beasts could be avoided in advance.

Watching Ye Qiu's back, Zhu Zhuqing tightened her grip on Blue Silver Emperor, lost in thought.

Time flew by, and unconsciously, Ye Qiu and Zhu Zhuqing had been in the Star Dou Great Forest for almost half a month.

During the day, Ye Qiu led the horse, wandering around with her, watching the sunrise and sunset together, searching for suitable soul beasts for the two of them. At night, Ye Qiu would take her into the Divine Might Realm (kamui) to spend the night.

Now, Zhu Zhuqing's injuries had completely healed. She carried a ten-year soul beast, a bamboo rat, walking towards a cave.

"Neigh! This is the lunch I caught! I really don't understand why you don't eat rabbits. Rabbits are much tastier than this thing." Muttering to herself, she threw the little bamboo rat in front of Ye Qiu, then sat down next to him.

Because she hadn't moved much for a long time, she suggested going out to hunt to regain the feeling of battle. Unexpectedly, she directly caught a whole nest of rabbits.

"Hehe, nothing I can do. I promised someone not to eat rabbits anymore." Ye Qiu chuckled, picking up the bamboo rat to prepare it. "By the way, I didn't expect you to be a good hunter!"

"My sister often targets me at home, and I basically cook my own meals." She was used to it, using her hand to fiddle with her left leg to see if it was clean.

"I see." Ye Qiu didn't say much, silently roasting the bamboo rat. Since the last accident, Ye Qiu understood that she didn't want to have too much interaction with him, and besides, he already had a rabbit!

Zhu Zhuqing frowned, occasionally distancing herself from Ye Qiu. She felt a bit annoyed. Clearly, this should be the situation she hoped for the most, but she couldn't feel happy.

"My body has fully recovered. When can we go hunting for soul beasts?"

"After finishing this meal. In the group of Shadow Spider Beasts we encountered earlier, there should be one suitable for you. Have you considered it? If not, we can find another one." Regarding the choice of soul beasts, Ye Qiu also had his considerations.
