"Uh...!"

Gan Jue, who was thinking about random things, was awakened by Lu Qiao's screams. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw his trembling figure gritting teeth.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What's the situation? Brother! Brother Lan Feng!" Wei Qing surrounded Lu Qiao with anxiety, and was a little busy and didn't know what to do. She could only look at Wei Qing Gan Jue and others as if she turned her head and asked for help, wanting them to give her an answer.

"This is the remnant of the ghost tiger in the soul ring that flows into Brother Lu's mind, and is in a confrontation with his consciousness. This is the most difficult hurdle for ordinary people to overcome when absorbing the soul ring. As long as Brother Lu can defeat the consciousness of the ghost tiger, there is basically no problem with the energy absorption behind it. After all, the age of this soul ring is only close to the limit of the fourth soul ring, and it has not exceeded."

Gan Jue looked at Lu Qiao in pain and trembled, and calmly analyzed it to everyone.

"Overall people..." Wei Qing was a little confused about why Gan Jue added this qualifier. However, now was not the time to worry about this, she continued to ask quickly.

"Then, is it difficult to defeat this ghost tiger's residual consciousness??"

"Is it difficult..." Gan Jue muttered, he really had no say in this. After all, when he absorbed the soul ring, there would be no residual soul beast consciousness in the soul ring. All the lives that died under him would return to the embrace of the god of death.

So he can only throw it back to this problem.

"Sister Qing, you should have an impression. Generally, the soul beasts that have been in the thousand-year-old will remain consciously. Think about what it felt when you absorbed the thousand-year-old soul ring and were most painful."

"The most painful time when absorbing the soul ring..." When Wei Qing and his sisters and Miyazawa heard Gan Jue's words, they slowly began to recall the painful experience of absorbing the soul ring, and they couldn't help but tremble and shook their heads together.

They didn't want to mention that pain.

"The soul ring of the ghost tiger absorbed by Brother Lu is at least twice as difficult as the ordinary five thousand-year-old soul ring, so you should have a rough understanding, right? Alas, I hope Brother Lu can hold on..." Gan Jue shook his head with some sigh and continued to add.

puff...

As soon as Gan Jue's voice fell, Lu Qiao, who had been enduring the ferocious face silently, suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then fell backwards.

"Brother Qiao!"

Seeing this sudden situation, Wei Qing exclaimed and hurried over to check Lu Qiao's situation. Only then did she realize that Lu Qiao was already fainted.

"Is this...is this a failure?!!"

Wei Qing looked up and asked anxiously at Gan Jue, with a crying voice in his words.

"Well..., I'll take a look first."

Gan Jue did not lose his calmness. He stepped forward two steps and reached out to explore Lu Qiao's breath. He found that although it was very weak, it was still there, but he was no longer awake.

Gan Jue organized the language, looked at the worried people around him, and calmly explained to everyone:

"The most difficult step, Brother Lu has taken over it. However, this has consumed all his mind, so he was unconscious. Fortunately, this soul ring has not exceeded the age limit, and the burden on his body should still be within the scope of his bearings, so there should be no major problems in the subsequent energy absorption. The rest depends on whether Brother Lu can stick to his beliefs and wake up in a short time. If he can wake up, even if Brother Lu completely absorbed the ghost tiger soul ring, if he can't wake up..., then the chance of waking up again will be very slim."

"Then...what should we do? Go back to the sunset camp first?" Wei Qing looked at the unconscious Lu Qiao and said in a daze. Obviously, even this big brother who has been leading the team is now in confusion.

"Let's wait for a day or two, let's leave this place first and find a hidden place to camp. If Brother Lu wakes up, the power of the soul ring will restore his body to its best state, and there is no need to go back. If you can't wake up in two days, it's not too late for us to go back."

"Okay...right! Then let's listen to Brother Lan Feng. Let's go, Lao Ze, carry A Qiao, I'll be clearing the way ahead, Xiao Qing is the second, you go third, Brother Lan Feng, please take care of you at the end. We have to leave this place quickly, the soul beast attracted by the smell of blood is getting stronger and stronger."

Since he had already taken care of it, Wei Qing immediately organized it vigorously. When the ghost tiger died, its body was placed there, and the smell of blood was probably floating ten miles away. Originally, Wei Qing was planning to collect more expensive things such as ghost tiger fur and tiger whip that Gan Jue didn't want when Lu Qiao absorbed the soul ring. But the state of Lu Qiao's absorption of the soul ring was really worrying, and soul beasts were attracted from time to time, so they needed to drive them away, so they didn't have time to clean up.

"good!"

Hearing Wei Qing's arrangement, Miyazawa agreed calmly, grabbed Lu Qiao and put him on his back. The group of four quickly left the bloody place.

...

Two days later, early in the morning.

On a huge rock on a small hillside in the Sunset Forest, Gan Jue sat quietly cross-legged, breathing the fresh air in the morning forest. The morning sunlight was blocked by layers of forest leaves, hitting Gan Jue bit by bit, litting a little golden light for him, and his clothes fluttered gently under the morning breeze.

"Brother Lan Feng!"

Wei Qing walked out of a cave with her head down, turned around and saw Gan Jue sitting cross-legged from a high place, and couldn't help but greet him happily.

In the past two days, Gan Jue not only took them to find this cave, giving them a perfect shelter, but also took the initiative to help everyone to guard them for most of the time, and never made any mistakes. So everyone's feelings for him became deeper and deeper, and it seemed that they really regarded him as one of them.

"Sister Qing."

When Gan Jue saw Wei Qing, he smiled and nodded at her.

"You go and have a rest, I'll be on your guard."

"It's okay, I'm in good condition, so there's no need to worry. How about it, has Brother Lu woken up?"

"No..."

Speaking of this, Wei Qing was a little sad. It has been almost a day and a half since Lu Qiao absorbed the ghost tiger's soul ring. Gan Jue said that if Lu Qiao could not wake up after two days, he might not wake up. So as time goes by, everyone's mood is getting heavier and heavier.

"Don't worry too much. In fact, Brother Lu has shown strong willpower to do this and should wake up. I'll ask you to tell him more things that he cares about. Have you said?"

"I said it, but I still didn't respond..."

Wei Qing mobilized her soul power and jumped to Gan Jue's side in a few steps. She sat down next to him with her hands in her knees, and placed her delicate and tender face on her knees with some sadness.

A faint fragrance came, but Gan Jue did not rub his nose any more. After getting along these days, Gan Jue has become accustomed to the fragrance and feels that the fragrance is really good. Although it is stronger, it does not make people feel overwhelmed, but it makes people feel refreshed. Moreover, he found that this fragrance is really not a perfume. In the past few days, he has not seen Wei Qing apply anything to himself. It should be Wei Qing's own fragrance.

The body fragrance is so strong that Gan Jue sometimes even guesses whether Wei Qing is the kind of precious physique described in fantasy novels, such as Tianxiang body, Xuanyin body, etc. Maybe after dual cultivation with her, her skills will increase greatly, and she will have a level of more than ten soul power, which is worth several years of hard practice.

"Brother Lan Feng."

Just as Gan Jue was thinking about it, Wei Qing suddenly turned her head and looked at Gan Jue's side face and spoke softly.

"Um...?"

"What do you think of your sister?"

"Well..."

Gan Jue stared at Wei Qing with his eyes and turned to look at him. Seeing her tilting her head, he looked at herself with some expectation. Her orange hair shone with a golden luster under the morning glow, which looked particularly beautiful.

Gan Jue is not a novice either. Generally, girls ask this kind of question to a boy alone. It is obvious that girls have a good impression of boys and want to see what they are like in the other person’s eyes and whether it will be beautiful.

"Haha..., it's very good. Sister Qing is not only good-looking, but also has a particularly nice smell on her body. If we weren't too different, I would definitely have to chase her to be a girlfriend."

Gan Jue beat him up and said to Wei Qing with a smile. He is sincere. In the past few days, Wei Qing has indeed taken good care of him. He can also see that Wei Qing is indeed a woman with a good personality. If he hadn't just wanted to improve his strength now, there would be a little difference between him and Wei Qing's age, and he might have accepted her.

"What does it mean? My sister is youngest? She is only thirty years old this year. This is not very big for us soul masters, right?"

Sure enough, after hearing Gan Jue's polite refusal, Wei Qing said to Gan Jue with a stern face and looked very unhappy.

"Of course Sister Qing is not old. We soul masters can basically live in over 100 years old. Thirty is our great years. But, just..." Gan Jue scratched his head, so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say. He thought that Wei Qing would cover the topic after hearing what he meant, but he didn't expect that Wei Qing didn't feel shy at all. He asked this question so openly, which made him feel a little at a loss.

"Forget it, don't say it if you don't know what to say. My sister understands what you mean."

Wei Qing looked at Gan Jue's crampage with amusement, and reached out to pinch his face with a angrily, which made Gan Jue stunned unconsciously.

In the past, he always pinched Xiao Wu's face, but unexpectedly, today he was also pinched by other girls.

In fact, if Gan Jue counts the age of his previous life, he should be two or three years older than Wei Qing. However, I don’t know if he still grew up from a child of five or six in this life. Although he has a big brother-like mentality for others of the same age group. However, for people who are older than his age group, such as Wei Qing Miyaze and others now, he calls his sister and brother very easily, and seems to really think he is a younger brother.

"I'm stupid!" Seeing Gan Jue looking at him in a daze, Wei Qing smiled, stretched out a finger and poked Gan Jue's forehead, waking him up.

"Brother Lan Feng, I know that your strength is definitely more than what you show now, right? That's why you look down on your sister."

Gan Jue, who had just been awakened, was surprised by Wei Qing's words again.

"After these days, no matter what situation you encounter, you are very comfortable. Even the five thousand-year-old ghost tiger did not show any anxious expression."

"It's because of this?"

Gan Jue was speechless. Could it be that Wei Qing felt that his strength was more than that and he was a little too sensitive because he was more calm?

"Of course not." Seeing Gan Jue's speechless expression, Wei Qing continued with dissatisfaction:

"Have you noticed that every time you are alert, there will be very few soul beasts coming. And when you are alert, you do not need to observe the surroundings with full attention like my brother and others. Most of the time, you even practice silently with your eyes closed. But even so, you still have no mistakes. This shows that you not only have a magical perception and exploration ability, but also can invisibly drive away most soul beasts, and even this hidden cave is also what you guide us to discover. Right?

Also, when you explained Brother Qiao's situation to us, you used a qualifier of 'ordinary people', which shows that you think you are very different from us in your subconscious mind. You often mention the word "over-year" to show that you are very familiar with this word. You tell your sister, have you ever had the experience of absorbing the soul ring for a longer period? If it were the case if you absorbed the ghost tiger soul ring, wouldn't it be very easy?"

“…”

Gan Jue was stunned by Wei Qing's words. After a while, he realized. After a smile, he was about to defend himself when he saw Wei Qing running out of the cave.

"Xiaoqing! Brother Lan Feng! Come in quickly, A Qiao is awake!" Wei Qing shouted to the two of them with excitement, and the expression of joy was like his wife giving birth to her.

Wei Qing and Gan Jue looked at each other, tacitly said nothing, and quickly jumped down together and entered the cave with Wei Qing.

In the cave, the swaying firelight shone Miyazawa and Lu Qiao's smiling faces particularly brightly. Seeing Wei Qing and Gan Jue come in, Lu Qiao's handsome face was full of smiles.

"Xiaoqing! Xiaofengfeng!"

"Brother Qiao, you are awake!" Wei Qing stepped forward excitedly and grabbed Lu Qiao's arm, shouting in surprise.

"Of course, I don't look at who I am. How could it be rare to defeat me if the soul ring of a ghost tiger!"

Lu Qiao picked up the bangs on his forehead with his fingers and made a very narcissistic move.

"Haha, Brother Lu, congratulations. How about it, is this Guihu's fourth soul skill strong?"

Gan Jue smiled and found a place to sit down, and asked Lu Qiao. He was still very happy that Lu Qiao could wake up from his consciousness of defeating the ghost tiger.

"Super strong!"

Speaking of this, Lu Qiao clapped her hands very excitedly.

"My fourth soul skill, called the ghost clone, can make me separate a clone that is exactly the same as me, and the damage it can cause is no different from me. Although he will disappear after he is more severely damaged, as long as he is here, he can release my first three soul skills at the same time as me, which is equivalent to directly double the damage of the two soul skills in the first two soul skills. How about it, it's amazing! I have the opportunity to show it to you!" Lu Qiao excitedly described his fourth soul skill to everyone, sharing his joy.

"Awesome!"

Wei Qing patted Lu Qiao's face excitedly.

"Good boy, this way, the attack power in our team will be even more strong!"
