Xiao Yi walked past the guards and appeared in front of the third prince.
"You are the brother of Xiao Mi. She told me a lot of things about you, like how you raised her and took care of her. You are indeed a good brother."
The third prince spoke with a smile, looking at Xiao Yi with a kind gaze.
Xiao Yi nodded and replied calmly, "Thank you for the praise, your highness, third prince. Can you tell me where Xiao Mi is? Is she on leave? I just want to meet her, but I didn't see her here."
Then he asked, looking at third prince thoughtfully,
The third prince nodded and smiled, then he replied calmly, "Xiao Mi is not here; I have sent her to Star Dou Forest in order to let her absorb the third soul ring. Your sister is really a genius; she is already a soul elder at the age of twelve. Also, can you visit me another time? I will talk to you later; right now I am a little busy."
Xiao Yi was startled and then nodded and said, "Thank you, your highness, third prince, for taking care of my sister. Please, you can proceed, and I won't disturb you anymore."
After speaking, he gestured toward the auction house entrance and let the third prince pass inside.
The third prince nodded kindly and walked inside, while two maids and two guards followed him inside, and the last two remained at the entrance as guards.
Xiao Yi, standing at the entrance, glanced at the receding back of the third prince.
'Why did this Qian Renxue expression change when I asked about Xiao Mi first? I have to confirm her words and find the Xiao Mi in the forest; maybe she is in some kind of trouble.'
Xiao Yi thought to himself solemnly, his brow furrowed tightly, thinking of the fleeting expression change of the third prince; he felt a bad premonition in his heart.
Although his assumption may be wrong, if in case it is right, then he will lose Xiao Mi. Thinking of this, Xiao Yi didn't delay; he hurriedly walked away.
While he didn't know just after he left,
Another figure flew outside from the auction house and started looking around, and then that figure flew toward the Blue Tyrant Academy.
On the other hand,
Inside the outer area of the great Stardou forest, one is a twelve- or thirteen-year-old girl with beautiful appearance wearing a simple white dress, and two adult figures alongside her, one male and the other female, both are wearing the royal guard armors.
Three figures were walking inside the forest; if Xiao Yi is here, he will recognize the girl; she is none other than Xiao Mi, who just arrived in the forest in order to hunt for the third soul ring, along with two guardians assigned by the palace.
"Miss Mi, what kind of soul beast ring do you want to absorb? At least tell us the direction we will find a suitable soul beast for you." The male guardian beside her asked, looking at Xiao Mi beside him,
Xiao Mi startled, and then her expression became thoughtful, and she said calmly,
"I am an attack department spirit master. My first soul skill increases the speed of my needle attack. The second soul skill can enhance the attack effect. As for the third soul skill, I want an attack skill that can affect a wide range."
"Miss Mi, you are really thoughtful; group attack skill is really suitable for you at this stage."
The female guardian with spirit king strength praised looking at her; Xiao Mi smiled hearing her praise and nodded, replying, "Thank you, Sister Ao."
While both of them didn't know the male guardian beside her was looking at both of their smiles with disgust,
'I have to hurry up and complete the task assigned by her highness and leave immediately; my disguise skill won't last long.'
The male guardian thought to himself, and then he noticed a beast near the tree far away; his eyes lit up, and he spoke, pointing at it.
"I think that soul beast is suitable as your third soul ring," The male guardian spoke; both Xiao Mi and guardian Ao glanced in the direction of the beast.
"It's poison quill porcupine soul beats; also, the age is eleven or twelve hundred years. It's perfect for your needle spirit, and its wide range poisonous attack is what you want."
The female guardian hurriedly spoke the characteristics of the beast: it is small, almost two meters; its body is ivy green with needles, and two elongated fangs jut out of its mouth.
Xiao Mi also nodded and said, "I need this spirit beast soul ring, please, sister Ao, help me hunt it down."
"On it," The female guardian spoke and moved; the next moment, the beast felt a threat, hurriedly hid its head in its coach, and instantly needles shot out from its back toward the surrounding
"Don't underestimate me," The female guardian spoke, looking at the needles in front of her; the next moment, a soul power layer covered her body, and an iron sword appeared in her hand; then soul rings appeared around her body.
Sword blockage!
Instantly the sword aligned in front of her vertically and started rotating at a fast speed, stopping and slashing all the needles.
Swish!!!
The next moment, she grabbed the sword hilt, and her figure flashed, slid, and stopped behind the monster.
"screeech," The porcupine emitted a sharp creak and fell on the ground with a wide injury on its side; while bleeding, it started taking deep breaths.
"Hurry up, kill it before it loses its breath." The female guardian hurriedly spoke, looking at Xiao Mi standing in a daze far away, and then she retracted the martial spirit.
Xiao Mi nodded and hurriedly walked forward with a knife in her hand, appearing beside the porcupine, and then she closed her eyes and slashed the neck of the porcupine; blood splattered around, and it took its last breath.
