Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

Chapter 160 Reunion of old friends

The Sea King looked at this scene and said weakly, "Two seniors, please come into the Sea King Hall and chat!"

The two elders exchanged a glance, and the Sea Valley Master, Soul Grass, spoke up, "Alright, I have something to ask you, the Sea King."

After that, the two followed the Sea King into the Sea King's Palace. The Sea King respectfully invited them to the seat of honor and ordered people to serve tea and food.

Mona asked Longying and others to help everyone heal their wounds, and then took the cubs into the Neptune Hall.

After everyone was seated, the Soul Grass Valley Master came straight to the point and asked, "Sea King, there have been frequent reports of ferocious beasts causing trouble in the sea recently. Are you aware of this?"

The Sea King quickly replied, "Senior, I have heard a little bit about this matter, but I don't know the details."

Soul Grass's face was solemn as he continued, "These beasts are powerful and pose a threat to the local area. We have come here in the hope that you can help us eradicate these scourges."

After hearing this, the Sea King hesitated for a moment and said, "My strength is too low to be competent."

At this time, Soul Grass smiled and said:

"That's fine. We don't want you to do it yourself. Just tell us the weaknesses and habits of these ferocious beasts, and we'll naturally find ways to deal with them."

After hearing this, Aquaman breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

Huncao turned to Elder Guiyuan and said, "Old man, you're still alive, why didn't you come to see me? Where are the other brothers?"

Elder Guiyuan was dumbfounded.

"Huh? I thought they were with you. I was ordered to take the Five Elements Spirit Pearl and hide in the secret realm of our Qilin clan. I never left for thousands of years until Mona came. I only left the secret realm after I had Hanzi and Yanzi!"

"I see. I was ordered to take the Soul Returning Grass and hide in the Sea Valley. I was not able to leave the valley until the little female, my destined person, came."

"What about the others?" They asked each other in unison, looking at each other in confusion, lost in thought. Finally, it was Elder Guiyuan who raised the question.

"So where are the other brothers? Haven't you looked for them in all these years?"

"No. I was isolated by the barrier in the Qilin Secret Realm. It was only after Mona gave birth to the Qilin cub that I learned about bloodline induction and was able to break out."

"It was the same for me. When you came looking for the Soul Returning Grass, you broke through our barrier, and that's how I was able to get out."

"So, it seems the other brothers are also isolated somewhere by the barrier. They just haven't met their destined person yet. Based on our development trajectory, I think this destined person should be Mona's family."

"Makes sense."

Soul Grass nodded, and Mona asked weakly beside her.

"Senior, who are the brothers you are talking about? Where are they?"

Elder Guiyuan was lost in his memories. Everyone gathered closer, curious, wanting to learn more about what happened back then.

"Back then, the Demon Gods fought a great war, splitting the Beast World into two. The continent we are on now is divided into four plates. There is another continent across the sea, which is also divided into four plates. Soul Grass and I were fortunate to meet here, along with our other three brothers. I wonder where they are?"

"How can we find the other three seniors?" Mona asked doubtfully.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Elder Guiyuan said thoughtfully.

"After the Demon God War, the world has undergone many changes, and the current situation is extremely complicated. Finding the other three brothers requires not only fate, but also strength and wisdom. If they are on this continent, it's all good. If they are on another continent, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack, with no chance of success."

"No matter what, we have to try." Soul Grass said firmly, "Now that we have reunited, we must find the other brothers and uncover the mystery of that year."

Mona nodded with a firm look in her eyes, and secretly made up her mind to help the two seniors find their brothers.

Everyone was silent. Ruirui, who was watching anxiously, interrupted.

"Grandpa Guiyuan. Your beast form is a Qilin, so you guard the Five Elements Spirit Pearl. Then what is the beast form of Huncao's grandfather? Why does he guard Hungui Grass? Also, why does Huncao's grandfather have a similar name to Hungui Grass?"

"Hahaha! ...My beast form is that of a mermaid, so I live in the sea. As for the name, it was given by my master. I was the one who oversaw the cultivation of the Soul Returning Grass, so I named it Soul Grass!"

"Oh! Oh! Grandpas, is there another explanation? Do you know what the beast forms of those brothers you mentioned are? We can follow this trail to find them."

"Yes, why didn't I think of that? Our Ruirui is so smart."

Long Ying was standing nearby, also trying to find out.

"Two seniors, you are talking about the war between demons and gods? How come I don't know about it?"

"You weren't even born at that time."

"Yes, during the Demon God War, all living things suffered, and the people of the Beast World were living in misery."

Elder Guiyuan recalled, "The evil Demon God attempted to rule the entire world, and the five Beast God brothers joined forces to fight him. The battle lasted a long time, and finally our master, relying on the power of the Five Elements Spirit Pearl and the Earth Spirit, sealed the Demon God in the dark abyss. However, this war also cost us a painful price. Of the five brothers, only the Beast God remained. Our master, after supplying his remaining spiritual energy to the Five Elements Spirit Pearl, died and his magic disappeared, and our disciples were separated as a result."

Soul Grass continued, "After so many years, I don't know if they are still alive. But I believe that as long as we work hard to find them, we will be able to meet them again one day."

"Yes, we will definitely find them!" Mona and Ruirui said in unison.

"I remember the eldest is from the Dragon Clan, the third is from the Fox Clan, and the fifth is from the Phoenix Clan. We can start our search from these three directions!"

"Senior Huncao, you said there are seniors from the Dragon Clan?"

"Yes, our boss is from the dragon clan. I've seen his true form. He's a golden dragon! Very majestic and domineering! He's also the most powerful among us."

Long Ying was surprised and delighted. "So, it's not the senior who sealed the Sea Demon God. Then let's go to the old site of the Dragon Clan to look for him!"

"The senior who sealed the Sea Demon God? The Sea Demon God was sealed by the Beast God, so where did this senior come from?" Elder Guiyuan was puzzled.

"Longsha and Mengmeng each received half of the senior's inheritance. He claimed to be a dragon priest! I thought he was the boss you were looking for!"

"So that's how it is. Our boss is a loner and doesn't like to talk to others. He even ignores us! I don't know where he is now! Oh..."

"Senior Soul Grass, the Phoenix Clan you mentioned? Is this what I look like?"

Chi Yan flapped his wings and soared over the Sea King Hall, circling around with a cry before landing beside Elder Gui Yuan.

"No, I've seen your beast form many times, and it's nothing compared to the third brother! Stop embarrassing yourself!"

Chi Yan hung his head like a child who had made a mistake. He said nothing. Senior Huncao came out and explained:

"Your current cultivation level can't reach the level of the third brother. He flies with the Phoenix Fire, and his entire body is engulfed in flames! He loves beauty and seeks out young females for pleasure! Why is there no trace of such a lonely person on this continent?"

"Maybe like you and me, I'm trapped in the barrier!"

Huncao and Guiyuan held each other's hands, their sadness infecting everyone. Bai Chen also came out and asked:

"Senior Guiyuan, you have seen my beast form. That one is my ancestor!"

After hearing what Bai Chen said, Huncao looked at him carefully. After a long while, he said, "Looks alike, very much so. You two look very similar. Can you let me see your beastly body?"

Bai Chen transformed into a nine-tailed fox without hesitation, with nine fluffy tails swaying gently behind him.

"Yes, it should be your ancestor, but there is a blue mark on his forehead, shaped like a water drop!"
