If he had known Jun Wu Xie had these three Beast Spirits beside her, even if he was filled with guts inside, he would not have dared to even think of touching her.
“I don’t want to hear any more of your nonsense. If you do not want to suffer, then answer whatever I ask you.” Jun Wu Xie was getting a little impatient, as the noise Meng Yi Liang was making was getting her riled and irritated.
“Sure! You can ask me anything! As long as you do not hurt me, I can tell you everything that I know.” Meng Yi Liang said between sobs and sniffles, the earlier debonair and suave air he was seeking to project nonexistent.
“Why does your Master want to capture that brown bear?” Jun Wu Xie asked the question she had in her heart.
Meng Yi Liang was taken aback, never having thought that Jun Wu Xie would ask about that, and his face showed a moment of hesitation.
“Floral, let him have a taste of your strength.” The moment Fei Yan saw Meng Yi Liang show hesitation, he immediately gave the Great Ape an order.
“No! Don’t….. don’t.” Meng Yi Liang begged with a wail.
The Great Ape stretched his other hand out and its palm lashed straight towards Meng Yi Liang’s head.
The Great Ape’s strength was much stronger than most other Beast Spirits and its size was several times greater than Meng Yi Liang. That single slap immediately made Meng Yi Liang see stars and the side of his face swelled up alarmingly, the corner of his mouth split.
“Rolly, go service him a little as well.” Qiao Chu said with his arms crossed over his chest, gesturing to the Yin Yang Bear with his chin.
The Yin Yang Bear immediately pounced, its two paws stretched out wide to its sides as it joined forces with the Great Ape to execute a short set of combo strikes!

“Arrrgh!” Meng Yi Liang’s mournful cry reverberated in the Tranquil Dream Forest. The combo bashing of the two massive Beast Ring Spirits made Meng Yi Liang experience what it meant to suffer a fate worse than death.
In just a few short moments, Meng Yi Liang’s face was so badly bashed up it swelled up till it looked like a pig’s head, with snot and tears flowing down, looking highly wretched.
“Don’t….. Don’t hit me anymore….. I’ll talk….. I’ll talk…..” Meng Yi Liang had never been beaten up so badly before and the excruciating pain on his body with the fear that filled him made him wail incessantly.
Jun Wu Xie raised up her hand slightly and Rolly and the Great Ape immediately stopped.
Meng Yi Liang looked so pitiful and was such a wretched sight, in no way showing the slightest hint of handsomeness.
“My Master wants to use the Spiritual Bear as the foundation stone for the fourth Serene Spirit Tower and only said that construction of the fourth Serene Spirit Tower could only be completed with the Spiritual Bear. Anything more than that….. I really do not know. I was accepted as a disciple by my Master only a few years ago and do not know the exact details. Everything that I have done was carried out under my Eldest Senior’s orders. I am really not lying.” Meng Yi Liang said sobbingly. If he had known that Jun Wu Xie had so a bunch of power behind her, even if you beat him to death, he would not have dared to even long for a single hair on Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie then went on to ask Meng Yi Liang a few more questions and just as Meng Yi Liang had said, the things he knew about was very limited. Wu Jiu had not valued him all that much and hence the questions he was able to answer was very limited in number as well.
But through Meng Yi Liang’s mouth, Jun Wu Xie had come to know the reason Wu Jiu was so anxious to capture the Spiritual Bear was in order for him to build the fourth Serene Spirit Tower. According to Meng Yi Liang’s words, if he was unable to capture the Spiritual Bear, then the fourth Serene Spirit Tower would never be able to be completed, which was a point that made Jun Wu Xie take notice.
“I’ve told you everything that I know….. Now….. Can you let me go?” Meng Yi Liang asked as he looked pleadingly with his face covered in snot and tears, asking very carefully, deeply afraid that his words would lead him to suffer another round of beating.
Jun Wu Xie arched up an eyebrow slightly as she looked at Meng Yi Liang, before she nodded to the Yin Yang Bear and the Great Ape.
Just as Meng Yi Liang thought that he had saved his own little life, the hands of the Great Ape clasped right around his neck, as the Yin Yang Bear’s sharp claws shot right through his chest.
Before he was even able to cry out, Meng Yi Liang was torn apart into two halves by the Yin Yang Bear!
The shattered soul then turned into specks of stars, to scatter and disperse within the dim and dark Tranquil Dreams Forest.
“Tsk tsk, why do I feel that that old fella called Wu Jiu seems to be planning a grand conspiracy?” Even the densest Qiao Chu among them had noticed the peculiarity of the matter.
Building the Serene Spirit Tower actually requires the Spiritual Bear! And the cheetah had said before that the Spiritual Bear was never that weak, but after it was brought away by Wu Jiu and it came to escape from the Serene Spirit Tower’s dungeon, it had turned into such a state. It was clear that there must be something in the Serene Spirit tower that was depleting the Spiritual Bear’s power of the spirit.
“Now, Wu Jiu has his sights set on Brownie, which also includes Nalan Shan as well. Since Jiang Yun Long knew that Little Xie was acquainted with Nalan Shan, it is feared that they will not spare Little Xie that easily.” Fan Zhuo said with a brow slightly lifted. Although Meng Yi Liang was dead, Jiang Yun Long was still around.
“Who spares who in the end is not yet decided.” Jun Wu Xie said with her eyes narrowed, as she turned herself around to look deep into the Tranquil Dream Forest.
“Since they want to capture me, then I should give him a greeting gift up front. Dumb Qiao, you guys get Rolly and the other two beast Ring Spirits ready. Today, we shall prepare a great big present for Jiang Yun Long and Wu Jiu.
[Want to capture me?]
[We’ll see if you possess that kind of capability first!]

A bout of slaughter was quietly carried out within the Tranquil Dream Forest.
The Tranquil Dreams Forest was expansively vast and in order to surround and capture Jun Wu Xie as quickly as he could, Jiang Yun Long had not only despatched spirits to stand guard around the perimeter of the Tranquil Dreams Forest, he had also sent out more than ten teams of human spirits to go right into the Tranquil Dreams Forest to search for any signs of Jun Wu Xie.
The ten over teams sounded like a lot, but going into the Tranquil Dreams Forest, they were scattered apart.
Jun Wu Xie and her companions had already cultivated in the Tranquil Dreams Forest for more than half a month and under Nalan Shan’s lead, they had become highly familiar with the Tranquil Dreams Forest. The place had now become their homeground in the Spirit World and using the densely packed trees, Jun Wu Xie and her companions executed a efficient counter attack together with the Yin Yang Bear and the other Ring Spirits.
A team of human spirits that came in seeking to capture Jun Wu Xie had not even seen her shadow before they were crushed to bits by the Double Headed Bone Snake that fell down from the skies.
The forest was a battleground that Beast Spirits were most familiar with and pitted against a group of human spirits who were unfamiliar with the place, how could they even hope to be a match for the Yin Yang Bear and the other Ring Spirits.
The Hell’s Butterfly searched through the Tranquil Dreams Forest for signs of the enemy and at the first moment that Rong Ruo received the news, she would relay the information to Jun Wu Xie where Jun Wu Xie would then dispatch the Yin Yang Bear and the other two Ring Spirits to go annih
ilate them.
The human spirits who came in as the hunters, suddenly became targeted as prey, as pitiful cries resounded within the Tranquil Dreams Forest, but were swallowed up by the thick sea of leaves.
It had merely been a day’s time, and the over ten teams that Jiang Yun Long sent out were completely obliterated, leaving the human spirits standing at the perimeter of the forest still completely oblivious to the things going on inside.
Rong Ruo sent out the Hell Butterfly to check of the team of human spirits outside the Tranquil Dreams Forest and sent out another Hell Butterfly to fly back to Jun Wu Xie’s house, to deliver the news to Jun Wu Yao, telling him there was no need to worry, and that Jun Wu Xie needed to spend another few days’ time in the Tranquil Dreams Forest.
There wasn’t a single human spirit sent into the Tranquil Dreams Forest left. The human spirits outside were not aware that they had all been slaughtered and were still foolishly standing guard outside to await news.
And over this period, Jun Wu Xie and her companions were neither anxious nor flustered, but just remained inside the Tranquil Dreams Forest to continue to cultivate steadily, leaving the Hell Butterfly to be the perfect scout, where no one would be able to escape its notice when anyone came near.
The companions stayed there for a ten day stretch. In those ten days, Jun Wu Xie and the companions constantly practiced their cultivation, giving up on rest, and focusing all their time to temper their powers of the spirit.
It was till the tenth day, that Jun Wu Xie snapped out of her trance.
Her progress was a little faster than Qiao Chu and the others and she dispersed the Spirit Fire as she stood up. She carried the little black cat up into her arms, and then lean herself against a huge tree.
The little black cat’s condition was still not all that stable, still very much in a coma, which caused Jun Wu Xie to still be worried about it. Seeing the little black cat unconscious in her arms, Jun Wu Xie closed her eyes, as she stroked at the little black cat’s smooth and luxurious fur.
Suddenly, Jun Wu Xie heard the faint trace of a soft sound. She immediately shielded the little black cat in her arms, her eyes narrowed as she looked towards the source of that sound.
A black shadow slowly glided down from the trees above.
Jun Wu Xie focused her gaze and then suddenly blew out a breath in relief.
Poison Ivy landed onto the ground as he looked at the guarded and wary Jun Wu Xie, and his eyes then showed a sliver of understanding.
“I had asked, why had so many human spirits suddenly come stand around outside. Now I can see it’s because of the bunch of you. What? Offended Wu Jiu?” Poison Ivy asked Jun Wu Xie with an eyebrow raised up. It could have been due to Little Lotus and Poppy, that Jun Wu Xie still had an impression of Jun Wu Xie.
“We must have disturbed you.” Jun Wu Xie knew Poison Ivy did not mean her any harm, and she was able to then relax her guard. Although Poison Ivy’s heart showed people no mercy, but he was highly principled, a spirit that had a harsh mouth, but a rather soft heart.

Poison Ivy shrugged his shoulders. “All of this has not really disturbed me all that much. Although I do not really want to bother with the human spirits’ affairs, but there is one thing that I feel you might be able to enlighten me on.”
“What would that be?” Poison Ivy had once helped the little black cat and Jun Wu Xie was still grateful to Poison Ivy for that. Hence, when the two of them spoke, there wasn’t any tension between them.
“How are human spirits who have yet to die able to come into the Spirit World?” Poison Ivy said suddenly.
Jun Wu Xie raised her head, her clear eyes turning to gaze upon Poison Ivy.
Poison Ivy then said: “I had initially felt it to be a little strange, that the timing that Little Lotus and Poppy returned here was a little too much of a coincidence, and their demeanor towards you seems to be highly respectful. I had not noticed it in the beginning, but then I discovered that there was a strange sliver of resonance between the two of them. I have not seen resonance like this, like there was something on their bodies that was the same. That was a point that puzzled me very much. I had discovered something uniquely special on Ring Spirits who returned back here from before, and it felt like one’s spirit had been severed, that indicated they had severed their links from their previous owners. But there wasn’t anything like that on Little Lotus and Poppy.”
“Little Lotus said before that you are his Mistress. Although you’ve come to the Spirit World, but ….. once you die, your links with your Ring Spirit should have been severed. The link between Little Lotus and your spirit soul is however still intact so would that mean….. your flesh body is still living?” Poison Ivy said, his eyes half narrowed as he looked at Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie’s face was calm, and she did not seemed to be flustered in the least.
Poison Ivy stared at Jun Wu Xie for a while, and then suddenly laughed softly.
“It does not matter if you are not willing to answer me, as I am merely just asking for the sake of asking.”
Jun Wu Xie still did not say anything Poison Ivy’s keen senses had surprised her, but at the same time, she had detected that when Poison Ivy said all those words, he had not displayed any animosity.
“No matter whether you admit it or not, I will take it as my deduction is correct for now. Wu Jiu will not be easy to deal with and if you continue to remain here in the Tranquil Dreams Forest, you will get in trouble sooner or later. I’ll bring all of you out.” Poison Ivy suddenly said.
Jun Wu Xie’s eyes revealed a glint of surprise. Poison Ivy did not seem to be someone who liked to poke his nose into people’s affairs.
“Don’t misunderstand me. I am not doing this because of you. All spirit bodies who become Ring Spirits would upon the death of their respective owners, have their spirit chain severed, where the spirit would suffer a devastating hit, that struck straight at their hearts. I have known Little Lotus for a long time and what I am doing today is merely to give him a helping hand.” Poison Ivy seemed to have noticed Jun Wu Xie’s surprise and puzzlement, and opened his mouth to say.
“Thank you.” Jun Wu Xie said with a slight nod of her head. Poison Ivy was the classic example of someone with the mouth of a viper but the heart of a Buddha, a rather good person.
Poison Ivy then said: “I find you rather pleasing to the eye as well. I will create some trouble later, and you can just leave here with your companions at that time.”
“Alright.” Jun Wu Xie nodded.
Poison Ivy immediately turned around. Jun Wu Xie went to wake Qiao Chu and their others from their trance in cultivation and told them what Poison Ivy had said. When the companions heard that, they immediately became excited and they went running towards the place that Poison Ivy lived at. If Poison Ivy was going to kick up a ruckus, it would definitely be close to where he lived.
Poison Ivy walked over the soft grass, and looked at the densely packed trees before his eyes. Sounds rose up from behind him which told him that Jun Wu Xie and her companions had already started to move. His eyes slightly lowered and a thin vine on his wrist slithered out. That particular vine had a cut edge, like it had been sliced off by some sharp object, looking rather conspicuous compared with all the other vines.

The expression on Poison Ivy’s face was tinted with a sliver of unspeakable sadness and it was a moment before he recovered to his senses as he went walking towards his own house.
On both sides of the enormous tree that Poison Ivy lived, were several human spirits standing around. They looked around the place, and did not manage to find their target. After searching for
a while, they began to feel bored and they gathered under the tree to whisper secretly to each other, where it was not known what they were talking about.
Poison Ivy appeared right before them without a sound just like that and the human spirits were startled by Poison Ivy’s sudden appearance, where they immediately held up their weapons.
Several vines shot out quick as lightning, instantly hitting the weapons out of the hands of the human spirits one by one.
“Poison….. Poison Ivy.” Seeing those swirling vines, the human spirits were able to identify Poison Ivy immediately.
“Who are you? Why are you here to disturb my rest?” Poison Ivy narrowed his eyes, as he glared balefully at the group of human spirits.
“We are the Spirit Master Wu Jiu’s subordinates and we have come here to the Tranquil Dreams Forest under the Spirit Master’s orders to arrest a criminal human spirit.” One of the human spirits said fearfully. The human spirits were growing stronger by the day, and there were few spirit bodies in the Spirit World that they needed to fear, but Poison Ivy was considered to be one of them.
Among the three strongest Plant Spirits in the Spirit World, Poison Ivy was one of them, and he was well known for his eccentric temperament, his venomous tongue able to scrape of the skin off others. Even though they were here using the name of Wu Jiu, they still did not dare to be too brash before Poison Ivy.
“You are disturbing me here. Scram.” Poison Ivy snapped impatiently, seemingly not exercising the slightest restraint even after hearing Wu Jiu’s name.
Those human spirits were startled by Poison Ivy and were going to say something else when the vines behind Poison Ivy started to wave and dance in the air.
And the human spirits immediately turned docile…..
In terms of power, they were completely not a match for Poison Ivy. Thinking that they had seen no sign of Jun Wu Xie though they had been watching the place for half a day already, and with how vast the Tranquil Dreams Forest was, who knew where Jun Wu Xie would appear from? There were quite a number of other human spirits watching other places anyway and Jun Wu Xie might not appear here at this place anyway. With such a large number of human spirits Meng Yi Liang had brought into the Tranquil Dreams Forest, it was possible that Jun Wu Xie might have already been found.
