Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

Originally, Yao Lao had felt something peculiar.

They had just entered the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

This was the outermost area, where most magical beasts had not even entered the first order. Occasionally, they would encounter First Order Magical Beasts, and at most, they might come across Second Order Magical Beasts. As for the more powerful creatures, they would not be active in the outskirts.

The deeper one ventured into the Magic Beast Mountain Range, the richer the resources became, and the more cautious the human experts would be. Therefore, the further one went, the more likely they were to find the residence of powerful magical beasts.

But now, even a Fourth Order Magical Beast, a rare species at that, had appeared in this place.

This was clearly suspicious.

The only possibility was...

At this moment, Yao Lao was looking at Xiao Yan as if he were a monster.

Even Yao Lao himself wanted to laugh a bit, for it was just too ridiculous.

Human's joys and sorrows are not the same.

Yao Lao decided to fall into a deep sleep himself later, definitely not wanting to witness anything he shouldn't. Unless Xiao Yan's life was in danger, he would definitely not intervene.

"Little Flame, I can't help you this time. I'm feeling a bit unwell, so I'm going to sleep now. I'll come out if you're in danger," Yao Lao quickly made some excuses and then directly fell into a deep sleep.

"Teacher?"

"Teacher?"

Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat, not expecting that Yao Lao would really ignore him?

But what was with Yao Lao's tone?

Xiao Yan also realized something was amiss at this point, especially since he noticed Xiao Yi Xian and members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps looking at him with sympathetic eyes. In an instant, he thought of a terrible possibility.

Could it be...

"Not good."

Xiao Yan immediately bolted, now understanding.

The target of these magical beasts was him! And what was the forte of these creatures? Even though he seldom mingled in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, he was certainly aware of the reputation of these fearsome beasts.

These magical beasts were utterly terrifying.

"I, Xiao Yan, can't possibly be this unlucky!"

"Such things are unheard of, I, Xiao Yan, absolutely cannot be the first one," Xiao Yan comforted himself while running for his life.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but think back to the way Xu Ran had looked earlier, could it be Xu Ran who was causing trouble?

It wasn't unlikely for him to think this way, as every time Xiao Yan fell into a terrible misfortune, it was Xu Ran who had trapped him from behind!

"Aow."

Seeing Xiao Yan trying to flee, the strongest Unity Ape let out a low grunt, covering a vast distance with just one stride, appearing in front of Xiao Yan. Its huge body blocked out the sun, casting a massive shadow over the ground in front of it.

With one step, the earth shook and the mountains quivered.

The terrifying strength of the magical beast made everyone's heart tremble.

If that foot had landed on them, they probably would have been crushed into a pulp!

The disparity in strength was simply too great!

The Unity Ape leader directly grabbed both of Xiao Yan's arms and began to drag him back.

"Ah!"

"I don't!"

"Don't want this!"

"Why? Why would these guys lay their hands on me? Why am I, Xiao Yan, so miserable?" Xiao Yan screamed in utter terror. He had held onto a sliver of hope, but his heart sank completely when the Unity Ape chased after him.

He couldn't understand why these powerful magical beasts were only focusing on him?

The Wolf Head Mercenary Corps, Xu Ran, and even Xiao Yi Xian, why do these magical beasts act as if they don't see them? Especially Xiao Yi Xian! Aren't those Magical Beasts just into that type of prey?

Why are these Unity Apes paying so much attention to me? What is it that they want?

He could even imagine that kind of scene. The Unity Apes are really too large, he definitely couldn't bear it!

Most importantly, a person's dignity would be trampled upon.

Xiao Yan's cries were piercing, and the desperate, miserable sound gave everyone goosebumps. No one dared to look at Xiao Yan, as they had already anticipated his grim fate.

"Don't drag me away!"

"Save me, please save me!"

"I don't want to be taken away by them. Xiao Yi Xian, Xu Ran, please help me," Xiao Yan clung desperately to a thick tree trunk, refusing to let go even in death.

He cried out in agony.

At this moment, he had no thoughts of putting on airs anymore.

If he were dragged away by a Unity Ape in front of so many people, even if nothing happened in the end, they would still wildly spread the story of his situation. Wouldn't his reputation, Xiao Yan's reputation, be...

Once captured by a Unity Ape, these mercenaries would exaggerate and speak of it everywhere; from then on, Xiao Yan's name within the Jia Ma Empire would...

By that time, Xiao Yan would become a complete laughingstock.

Xun Er was taken from him, his fiancée was taken as well, his father wanted to sever ties with him, and his clan had kicked him out, and now…

Why is it always so tough for me, Xiao Yan!

"Xiao Yan, you're a good man. You led away so many magical beasts alone for our safety. We will definitely remember you," Xu Ran said, smiling. What Xiao Yan was going to suffer next, even he did not know. He simply told those magical beasts to treat Xiao Yan 'well'. How these magical beasts understood his words, that he wasn't sure.

He only knew that Xiao Yan would be quite 'happy' in a moment.

"Xu Ran, you're still making snide comments here? Don't you know what I am about to go through? And you dare to take pleasure in my misfortune?"

"No!"

"I must have ended up like this because of you! I don't know how you did it, but bad luck always comes my way whenever I encounter you. It must be you who directed these magical beasts to call for me!"

Xiao Yan said, eyes red with rage.

Damn it!

He wished he could eat Xu Ran's flesh, drink Xu Ran's blood!

It was bad enough that he took his woman, but Xu Ran, for fuck's sake, how could he do such a thing to him! Does Xu Ran have any conscience at all?

"Xu Ran, let me off this time. I won't provoke you again. Just let me off this time, and I'll take a different path whenever I see you, okay?" Xiao Yan pleaded in desperation. Even if he guessed everything, he still wanted to beg Xu Ran to let him go.

He really didn't want to face those things!

"Xiao Yan, I don't know what you're talking about. These magical beasts are clearly interested in your body. How could I, Xu Ran, possibly command these powerful magical beasts? Don't falsely accuse me. Clearly, it's a problem with your own constitution," Xu Ran said with a smile.

Xiao Yi Xian nodded in agreement. She didn't believe Xu Ran was capable of that either. Those magical beasts were so strong, and besides, beasts generally don't submit to humans.

"You're full of shit!"

"Dog-fucking Xu Ran! It must be you setting me up!"

"You just wait! If those things happen to me, I'll make you pay a bloody price!" Xiao Yan roared in anger.

Seeing that his pleas were ineffective, Xiao Yan finally lost his composure!

Especially because the large tree he was desperately clinging to now seemed like it was about to topple over, as if it would be uprooted, due to the immense force dragging on it. The sheer physical strength of powerful magical beasts was terrifying!

"No!"

"Why take it out on me? Why not target Xiao Yi Xian?"

"Xiao Yi Xian is so beautiful, aren't you beasts particularly fond of that kind?"

Xiao Yan shouted out of desperation, even trying to divert the attention of the beasts from himself to Xiao Yi Xian.
