Outside the gate of Tiandou City.

After getting off the carriage, Nan Li stretched out a hand to Xue Ke, "Let's go, Your Highness."

Sunset Forest was only a hundred miles away from Tiandou City. After arriving at the city gate, they no longer took the carriage. The three of them walked and stopped as they went out for fun.

And Red Cat Yun was lazily lying on Nanli's shoulder, disguising himself as a decoration and being lazy.

"Your Highness, have you thought clearly about what kind of soul beast you want?" Nan Li was actually not just asking about the soul beast, but also about the future development direction of Xue Ke's martial soul.

"Sister Ali, I feel that my talent for cultivation is not outstanding. I am definitely not as good as Zhu Lang and Luo Gu. If I develop in the direction of attack, it seems unnecessary. Any one of my guards is much more powerful than me."

"Strong attack is obviously not suitable for me, and defense can also be ruled out. Agility attack... Although the swan martial spirit can fly, it is inferior to the eagle in attack. It can be considered, but it is not the best choice for me. Control system is a test of the spirit master's mental strength, so let's put it aside for now..."

"Sister Ali, I want to develop in the direction of the auxiliary system, such as treatment and amplification. In this way, when they encounter danger in the future, I can assist Zhu Lang, Luo Gu and others."

Xue Ke's words were clearly well thought out and not aimless. "They are all Soul Saints. I cannot participate in a fight of this level with force, but I can help them win with my auxiliary soul skills."

"You can think so." Nan Li chuckled.

Nan Li asked Xue Ke if she had a target soul beast. Xue Ke shook her head and said that she didn't know much about the soul beasts in the big forest. She only remembered that the souls prepared for her by the royal family seemed to be swans or other flying birds.

Zhu Zhulang recalled in his mind and said, "I do remember that there is a healing soul beast called Emerald Swan in the Star Dou Great Forest, but this soul beast is very fragile in its infancy and there are not many of them. I wonder if there is one in the Sunset Forest."

Nan Li smiled and said, "Let's go and look for it."

In fact, in addition to the Emerald Swan, plants with healing effects are also acceptable, but the former is closer to Xue Ke's martial soul and has the best final effect.

Xue Ke's third soul ring can be used for healing, but if the whole soul ring is developed towards healing, the advantages of the Swan Martial Soul itself will be wasted. Nan Li thought about it and said, "In terms of healing, the Swan Martial Soul cannot be better than the Nine-Hearted Begonia. Zhu Lang, your Highness's soul cannot only have the ability to heal."

Nine-Hearted Begonia, a very special martial spirit. This kind of martial spirit has always been passed down from one line to another. There can only be two Nine-Hearted Begonia spirit masters alive at the same time. Only when one dies can another one appear in the offspring.

Corresponding to this strict restriction is the powerful healing ability of the Nine-Hearted Begonia.

As for the Nine-Hearted Begonia Spirit Master, Nan Li also happened to recognize him. "The successor of this generation of the Nine-Hearted Begonia Spirit Hall is Ye Lingling. She is studying at the Tiandou Royal Academy. Maybe she will become your highness's right-hand man in the future."

After hearing this, Xue Ke looked at Zhu Zhulang and said, "Sister A-li, Zhulang and I have also thought about developing in the direction of auxiliary amplification, but with the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, it seems that our amplification cannot compare to theirs."

Nan Li shook his head slightly and asked with a smile: "Why not? If your third soul skill is healing, and your fourth soul skill is amplification, then you have an advantage over the Nine-Hearted Begonia in amplification, and an advantage over the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower in healing."

"Your Highness, you must remember that no one is perfect, and the same is true for martial spirits. There is no need to be too hard on yourself. As long as you try your best and reach the upper limit of what you can achieve, you have succeeded."

"One more thing, my princess. Imagine if a war breaks out and the emperor of the Xing Luo Empire leads the troops on the battlefield, it will have an immeasurable motivating effect on the soldiers of Xing Luo. And you, what can you do?"

Nan Li did not wait for Xue Ke to answer and continued, "No matter how effective the treatment and amplification are, they will be the sympathy and encouragement given to them by the princess of the empire. Your Highness, do you understand?"

Xue Ke looked up at Nan Li, and she seemed to be inspired by Nan Li's red eyes.

Zhu Zhulang went straight to the point. She asked Nan Li: "So, what soul beast are you going to choose as your fourth soul ring?"

Nan Li raised his eyebrows, "Auspicious beast will do."

……

The three of them entered the Sunset Forest.

Zhu Zhulang was just about to ask Nanli which direction to start looking, but when he turned around he saw a pair of double pupils.

The pressure from the double pupils was too strong, and Zhu Zhulang could not help thinking of the word "emperor". Above the double pupils, the phoenix-shaped soul bone was like an emperor's crown. Even if Nan Li's eyes were not on her, the majesty revealed invisibly still made Zhu Zhulang dare not offend.

Xue Ke had already hidden behind Zhu Zhulang, and the two of them involuntarily took a few steps back.

Hongyun seemed relatively calm, but if one looked closely, one would find that the beast was lying motionless on Nanli's shoulder, not daring to breathe.

After a moment, Nan Li withdrew her spiritual power. She realized that the two were afraid, so she deliberately did not retract her spirit bones. She raised her lips and waved at the two people, "What are you afraid of? Come here."

Xue Ke shrank behind Zhu Zhulang, and did not dare to move.

How can you be so timid? Nan Li couldn't understand. "Do I need to say it again? I won't do anything to you. What is there to be afraid of?"

Zhu Zhulang stepped forward, but he was a little confused: How could Nan Li be more powerful than his master? More importantly, those double pupils...

"It's so scary." Xue Ke muttered.

Zhu Zhulang nodded silently.

“Your Highness, if you are afraid of double pupils, what would you do if you saw a spider as big as a human one day?” Nan Li sighed and shook his head slightly, “And you, Zhu Zhulang, you actually…”

Zhu Zhulang gritted his teeth and said, "Shut up."

So embarrassing.

Nan Li still gave the other party face. He laughed a few times and then put away his soul bone. His eyes returned to normal.

Thinking of the image just transmitted by his spiritual power, Nan Li said to Xue Ke: "Your Highness, I just checked and found that there is no soul beast like the Emerald Swan in the Sunset Forest. Now you have two choices. First, we go to the Star Dou Forest where the Emerald Swan tribe is. Second, choose another soul beast."

Zhu Zhulang's expression changed again.

Nan Li meant that she had just used her mental power to explore the entire Sunset Forest in just a few breaths? !

Although the Sunset Forest is several times smaller than the Star Dou Great Forest, it is also one of the best soul beast forests in the Tiandou Empire. Nan Li has been standing in the same place, but he actually turned this place over with his mental power? This is too exaggerated!

Can Master do this? Should, probably, maybe... can he?

Zhu Zhulang began to doubt his life.

"I, I can do anything." Xue Ke didn't have much idea about this. She was just thinking about Nan Li's question. She looked hesitant. "If we go to the Xingdou Great Forest, will it be too troublesome?"

Nan Li understood that Xue Ke was afraid of causing trouble for her and Zhu Zhulang.

Nan Li smiled and looked at Xue Ke, saying, "You don't have to think about these. I will take care of it whether it's troublesome or not. You just need to tell me, do you want the most suitable Emerald Swan, or do you want to settle for the next best thing and find another soul beast in the Sunset Forest? Princess, do you think you don't deserve to have the most suitable soul beast?"

Zhu Zhulang came back to her senses and realized that Nan Li was encouraging Xue Ke to have the courage to speak her mind and to dare to think before she dares to act.

"I, I want the Emerald Swan." Xue Ke replied.

Nan Li smiled with satisfaction, "That's right."

Before going to look for the Emerald Swan, Nan Li and Zhu Zhulang accompanied Xue Ke to observe many soul beasts in the Sunset Forest. A few days later, the three of them set off for the Star Dou Great Forest.

On the way to the Star Dou Great Forest, Nan Li met several Flame-feathered Birds and Sumeru Ravens who came to find her in a group.

A group of palm-sized birds sensed Nanli's presence and huddled over in a hive, chirping and croaking around Nanli for a while. Nanli said something to them, and the little guys left on their own.

Zhu Zhulang knew Nan Li's identity and was not surprised by this. She didn't ask what happened.

Xue Ke asked Nan Li in surprise why he could communicate with birds.

Nan Li smiled and said, "Maybe I am gifted."

The three of them continued to rush towards the Star Forest.

……

Zhu Zhulang discovered that after entering the Xingdou Great Forest, Nanli acted much faster. They no longer leisurely observed various animals and plants in the forest as before, but headed straight to their destination.

She and Xue Ke followed Nan Li to a quiet corner of the forest, and then waited there as instructed by Nan Li.

Zhu Zhulang stayed beside Xue Ke with a tense mind. After about half an hour, Nan Li reappeared in front of them. Along with Nan Li, there was also a thousand-year-old emerald swan.

Zhu Zhulang was surprised to check out the soul beast, but soon she found that this emerald swan was not suitable for Xue Ke. "According to your highness's situation, a soul beast of about 1,200 years old would be enough. This soul beast has cultivated for nearly 3,000 years, almost catching up with the fourth soul ring of others. Nanli, this, isn't it not suitable?"

Xue Ke also understood some basic theories of the spirit master world, and she knew her own strength. "Sister A-li, I'm afraid I can't absorb such a high-year spirit ring."

"Trust me, there will be absolutely no problem." Nan Li calmly pulled her sleeves to cover the red marks on her arms. She smiled as always and told Xue Ke not to worry.

Nan Li glanced at the swan, and the next moment, in front of Zhu Zhulang's astonished gaze, the soul beast flapped its wings and sacrificed itself to Xue Ke.

The third soul ring of an average person lasts about 1,700 years, but the soul beast that Nanli brought back has a cultivation base of 3,000 years. If Xue Ke were to absorb it on her own, there would definitely be problems, and she might even explode and die. However, these problems could be avoided if the soul beast took the initiative to sacrifice itself.

Why would soul beasts offer sacrifices voluntarily?

Zhu Zhulang was puzzled. She asked, "Nanli, what did you do?"
