These two little fellows—one is the reincarnation of the Dragon God, and the other is the auspicious beast. Both are treasures of the Soul Beast clan.
Don't even mention hurting a hair on them. Even making them unhappy and prompting them to complain would result in Di Tian coming that very night to teach a lesson.
Poor Bear Lord has been beaten up several times over the past few years.
Now, how could Bear Lord dare to offend them anymore?
But these two little ancestors just love to come to him for freebies.
Bear Lord is truly pitiful, as he doesn't have much surplus food.
While Bear Lord is complaining to himself, the person and the beast arrive swiftly.
In just the blink of an eye, they are already standing in front of Bear Lord.
Bear Lord's figure is robust, and his presence is violent and fierce. Even a human Super Douluo would tremble at the sight of him.
However, this person and beast show no fear at all.
On the contrary, the huge Bear Lord, looking at the two tiny figures on the ground, feels a headache coming on.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
Bear Lord first bows, then says, "Young Master and Auspicious Beast, what brings you to this humble one's place?"
"Let me say this first, I truly don't have anything good left here."
"If the Young Master wants something, I do have a few Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear soul bones, which I can reluctantly give to the Young Master."
Over the years, many Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears have died due to various accidents or disasters, and those who died within Bear Lord's territory left behind soul bones.
As a remembrance of them, Bear Lord has been collecting these soul bones.
"Oh, how polite!"
"Then, Uncle Bear Lord, quickly bring them out."
Hearing Bear Lord's words, Su Yu's eyes light up. What a great deal!
He might not care much for other soul bones, but the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear's soul bones are incredibly rare treasures.
Soul bones of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear are exceedingly rare in the outside world.
To say he wasn't interested would be a lie.
Wait, are you seriously going to accept it?
These are the soul bones left behind by my clan members!
Bear Lord opens his mouth, clearly not expecting Su Yu to agree so readily.
Oh no, I shouldn't have said that—this Young Master truly has no reservations.
But having spoken, he couldn't take it back.
To deceive the Young Master? That's a death wish!
He didn't want Di Tian to pay him a friendly visit.
No choice; you dig your pit, and you have to jump into it.
Bear Lord goes to a tree hollow, reaches in with his paw, and pulls out three soul bones.
These three soul bones are all in perfect condition, and judging by their age, they are at least over ten thousand years old.
One of them has an especially powerful energy fluctuation, thick and solid like a mountain.
Even if it isn't a hundred-thousand-year soul bone, it's at least over fifty thousand years old.
Bear Lord knows better than to try to fool Su Yu; none of the bones he takes out are under fifty thousand years old.
Bear Lord tosses the three soul bones to Su Yu, and Su Yu catches them one by one.
Upon closer inspection, the three soul bones are a left arm bone, a right arm bone, and a torso bone.
From his judgment, the left arm bone is roughly thirty thousand years old.
The torso bone is about forty thousand years old.
The best one is the right arm bone, which is about sixty to eighty thousand years old.
These three soul bones are worth a fortune, especially the right arm bone, which is not inferior to a hundred-thousand-year soul bone.
Su Yu examines them closely, then asks, "Uncle Bear Lord, don't you have any hundred-thousand-year ones?"
Bear Lord shakes his head.
The Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear clan doesn't have any hundred-thousand-year soul beasts that have died.
But it makes sense. The Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears are incredibly powerful.
Without the strength of a Super Douluo, encountering a hundred-thousand-year Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear means certain death.
Hunting one would be unimaginably difficult.
On the other hand, soul beasts in the ten-thousand-year range are more likely to die due to accidents.
"I see. Do you have any claw bones? Something like the claws, perhaps?"
Su Yu asks again.
The most valuable soul bone that a Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear could produce isn't a hundred-thousand-year soul bone but an external soul bone—the Darkgolden Terrorclaw!
That is the strongest feature of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear clan.
"I do have one, but it's relatively low in age, only just reaching ten thousand years."
Bear Lord scratches his head and says.
"I'll just take that ten-thousand-year one. Uncle Bear Lord, is it the left claw or the right claw?"
Su Yu's eyes gleam, full of excitement.
"I think it's the right claw. Young Master, please wait a moment."
Bear Lord hunches down and rummages again.
Soon, a golden right claw bone is pulled out.
The claw bone has five sharp talons, which seem as if they could tear through space itself.
Bear Lord tosses it out, and Su Yu catches it, visibly excited.
This Darkgolden Terrorclaw is one of the finest soul bones.
And it just so happens to be the strongest right claw bone—a perfect stroke of fortune.
Su Yu examines the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear's right claw bone in his hand and sighs inwardly.
The Star Dou Forest is truly rich. You'd never know just how many rare treasures these ferocious beasts have collected.
Su Yu knows that they must have a large number of rare soul bones in their possession.
If Bear Lord has this much, just imagine what Di Tian has—the collection would be even more abundant.
However, he is too embarrassed to ask for more.
This time, it was only because Bear Lord had brought up giving him soul bones that he accepted; otherwise, he wouldn't have asked for them either.
Although Bear Lord might have been just saying it casually, Su Yu took it seriously (=^▽^=).
"Thank you, Uncle Bear Lord. I'll remember this. In the future, I will repay your kindness."
Su Yu grins.
He isn't lying. When he says he will repay, he means it. In the future, Bear Lord will realize just how valuable these soul bones he gave are.
"Thank you, Young Master."
Bear Lord waves his paw half-heartedly, not taking it seriously.
After all, Su Yu is still very weak right now, and it would be a long time before he would be of any consequence.
"By the way, Uncle Bear Lord, do you have any honey?"
Su Yu suddenly changes the subject and asks.
"No honey! None at all!"
Bear Lord quickly shakes his head like a rattling drum.
Dark golden Terrorclaw Bears are carnivorous, but they also have a great fondness for honey.
For Bear Lord, he would rather give Su Yu a few more soul bones than part with his honey.
After all, honey is one of Bear Lord's few pleasures in life.
"Uncle Bear Lord, lying isn't a good habit, you know."
Su Yu raises an eyebrow, smiling mischievously.
"Uncle Bear Lord, you wouldn't want people to know that you're so stingy, hiding even a bit of honey, would you?"
"Exactly, exactly!" the Auspicious Beast chimes in.
Bear Lord scratches his head.
"I don't have any honey."
Su Yu's smile deepens.
"Uncle Bear Lord, you wouldn't want Uncle Di Tian to come visit you for a chat, right?"
"Exactly, exactly!" the Three-Eyed Golden Lion echoes again.
At that, Bear Lord is stunned.
This is an outright threat.
Would Bear Lord be afraid of Di Tian?
Are you kidding? Who is Bear Lord?
Would he be afraid of Di Tian?
"Young Master I do have some honey left, but not much. You'll need to leave me a little," Bear Lord says pitifully.
Let's make one thing clear first: Bear Lord is not afraid! He just doesn't want to have a conflict with Di Tian, that's all.
Everyone knows that Bear Lord is the most peace-loving soul beast, right? O(≧▽≦)O.
"I knew Uncle Bear Lord was the most generous and would never be stingy."
Su Yu smiled, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion underneath him nodded repeatedly.
Bear Lord kept a smile on his face, but in his heart, he was cursing up a storm.
Encountering these two little ancestors? What bad luck for Bear Lord.
All this time, who would dare extort Bear Lord? Anyone who tried didn't want to live.
But when it came to these two little ancestors, even Bear Lord dared not show the slightest neglect.
Having no choice, Bear Lord lowered himself again, his massive figure resembling a small mountain, raising his huge rear in the air, and began digging through the tree hollow with his big paw.
Su Yu stretched his neck, looking curiously.
This tree hollow must be Bear Lord's treasure trove. Who knows what's hidden inside?
Soon, Bear Lord pulled out a honeycomb about three meters wide, holding it in his hand, his face full of reluctance.
"You'll only get this much, Young Master. As for the rest, I need to save some for myself," Bear Lord said, his face showing immense pain.
"Fair enough," Su Yu replied, moving swiftly. In a flash, he was back in his original spot, now holding the honeycomb that was over three meters high.
A refreshingly sweet scent wafted from the honeycomb.
Su Yu focused his gaze, and inside the honeycomb, the golden-yellow honey looked incredibly tempting.
One glance and it was clear this was no ordinary honey—it might even be considered a rare treasure.
"Is this Golden Jade Dragon Bee honey?"
Su Yu asked, a little surprised.
The Golden Jade Dragon Bee is a very special type of bee-like soul beast. The word dragon in its name signifies that this bee carries a trace of dragon bloodline.
Not only is the Golden Jade Dragon Bee fierce, but its honey is also the sweetest and most valuable among all bee-like soul beasts.
Consuming Golden Jade Dragon Bee honey can enhance physical fitness, and it's extremely beneficial for nourishing the meridians and improving one's constitution.
Its value is on par with some precious spiritual herbs and fruits.
"This honey was produced by a ten-thousand-year-old Golden Jade Dragon Bee. It's very rare," Bear Lord said, still looking reluctant. This was one of his treasured collections.
It was already scarce, and now Su Yu had taken a share.
Bear Lord was truly down on his luck!
"Uncle Bear Lord, you're so generous!"
Su Yu gave a thumbs-up.
Despite Bear Lord acting like he was guarding his food, he was willing to give, and what he gave were all top-quality items!
"Uncle Bear Lord, you truly are the pillar of our soul beast clan," Su Yu added.
"Second only to the Beast God, Di Tian. In the future, the responsibility of our soul beast clan will still need a capable Beast King like you to bear the burden."
Su Yu casually threw in some flattery.
After receiving so many good things from Bear Lord, he felt it would be rude not to say a few nice words.
"Young Master, you flatter me," Bear Lord said, scratching his head, pretending to be modest.
But his grin was wide, like a lotus flower. The corners of his mouth were curling up so much, it was harder to suppress than an AK-47's recoil.
Even the reincarnated Dragon God's Young Master was calling him the pillar of the soul beast clan. See? The Young Master has sharp eyes!
Unlike Di Tian, who always called him stupid and reckless. Hmph, he's nothing special.
One day, when Bear Lord's power is fully developed, he'll drag Di Tian down from his position.
He, Bear Lord, will be the number one Beast King, second only to the Master and the Young Master.
With just a few flattering words, Bear Lord was already daydreaming about his glorious future.
Watching Bear Lord's foolish grin, Su Yu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
No wonder Di Tian always called Bear Lord stupid. He wasn't showing much intelligence.
It wouldn't be wrong to say he was all brawn and no brains.
No wonder the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear clan was full of blockheads—it must have started with their leader.
Looking at the foolishly happy Bear Lord, a spark of inspiration suddenly flashed through Su Yu's mind.
He deliberately let out a deep sigh, "Sigh!"
"Young Master, why are you sighing all of a sudden?"
Bear Lord asked curiously.
"I just remembered something."
Su Yu said in a serious tone, "When I was traveling the continent, I encountered a powerful individual, and we had a conversation."
"When we discussed the Ten Great Savage Beasts, I said that while the strongest beast in the Star Dou Forest is the Beast God Di Tian, the one with the most potential is the leader of the Dark golden Terrorclaw Bear clan—Bear Lord."
"The Darkgolden Terrorclaw and Sky-Tearing Claw of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear clan are unrivaled in the world."
"I said that given enough time, Bear Lord could very well become the number one savage beast in the Star Dou Forest."
Hearing this, Bear Lord kept nodding. As expected of the Young Master, he truly had a keen eye for heroes.
I, Bear Lord, really do have that kind of potential!
And my Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear clan is indeed that powerful!
"But..."
"But what?"
Bear Lord quickly asked.
"But that strong individual disagreed. He said that besides the Beast God Di Tian, all other soul beasts in the Star Dou Forest are weak."
"And especially Bear Lord, whom he called a brainless fool."
"When he said that, I couldn't stand it. I questioned him, saying that Bear Lord is known as the wise one of the Star Dou Forest. How could he be stupid? And not only that, Bear Lord is famously powerful. If you're so capable, go challenge Bear Lord yourself! Bear Lord will beat you so badly you won't even know how to live."
"He said he would eventually head to the Star Dou Forest to challenge Bear Lord, and he would prove to me that Bear Lord is nothing special."
"He even said he would hunt a few Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bears to give his student's soul rings!"
"What?"
"The nerve of that wretched dog! How arrogant!!!"
"Young Master, who is this bastard? I'll tear him apart! How dare he insult me like this?!"
Bear Lord roared to the sky, his eyes filled with violent killing intent.
He hated being called stupid more than anything.
And that bastard dared to look down on him.
He was Bear Lord!!!
Not to mention that this guy even dared to talk about hunting his clan members—he was courting death!!!
"He called himself Taotie Douluo Xuanzi from Shrek Academy. He usually carries a wine gourd on his waist and always holds a chicken leg in his hand. He dresses sloppily and doesn't look like anyone capable."
"But despite that, he's incredibly arrogant. I couldn't stand it, Uncle Bear Lord. He said all those things about you—can you tolerate it?"
"Of course, I can't tolerate it! Taotie Douluo—what a name! If he's seeking death, I'll grant his wish."
Bear Lord let out a series of furious roars, his killing intent soaring.
Su Yu watched quietly, a smile playing on his lips.
The idea of provoking Bear Lord like this had just come to him on a whim.
In fact, during his travels on the continent, he had indeed had some friction with Shrek Academy.
As for who started it, it wasn't him.
He wasn't the type to cause trouble.
But Shrek Academy's motto was that not causing trouble made one mediocre.
Besides, Su Yu never had a good impression of Shrek Academy. Even when reading the original works, he didn't like Shrek.
