The Three-Eyed Golden Ni took resolute steps, leaving behind the familiar place and heading toward the human world.
Along the way, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni encountered a talking little bird. The little bird asked with curiosity, "Who are you? How come I've never seen you before?"
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni smiled and replied, "I am the Three-Eyed Golden Ni, and I'm going to have a look at the human world."
The little bird said in astonishment, "The human world is very complicated, you must be careful!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni nodded and said, "I know, but I'm not afraid."
The little bird continued, "Then you must pay more attention to safety. Humans are not as simple-minded as us animals."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni said with gratitude, "Thank you for the reminder, I will remember it."
Continuing forward, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni came to the side of a small stream and saw a little squirrel playing by the bank. Upon seeing the Three-Eyed Golden Ni, the little squirrel hopped over and asked, "Are you going to the human world? It's a lot of fun over there!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni asked curiously, "Really? Then can you tell me what fun things there are in the human world?"
The little squirrel thought for a moment and said, "There are many pretty houses in the human world, and all kinds of delicious food! But you mustn't eat human things casually; some things might not be good for you."
Listening intently, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni said, "I understand, thank you."
After walking for a distance, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni encountered an old yellow ox. Looking at the Three-Eyed Golden Ni, the old yellow ox said, "Child, since you're going to the human world, you must watch out for people with malicious intentions."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni asked with puzzlement, "Why?"
The old yellow ox sighed and said, "Humans are sometimes selfish and will stop at nothing for their own interests. You must stay vigilant and not easily trust others."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni said gratefully, "I'll keep that in mind, thank you for your advice."
Finally, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni reached the edge of the human world. Gazing at the scene before her, she felt both excited and somewhat nervous in her heart. At that moment, a voice sounded by her ear: "You've finally arrived."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni was startled. Turning around to look, it turned out to be Lang Chen. Lang Chen said with a smile, "I still couldn't rest assured about you, so I followed to take a look."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni said touched, "Thank you, Lang Chen."
Lang Chen said, "Don't mention it, let's go in together. But you must remember, no matter what happens, don't panic; I will always be by your side."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni nodded and walked into the human world together with Lang Chen.
In the human world, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni saw bustling streets, a surging crowd, and all kinds of novelties. She looked around with full curiosity, finding everything incomparably fresh.
Lang Chen reminded her from the side, "Don't run around blindly; it's very complicated here."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni said, "I know, I'll be careful."
They came to a market, where the Three-Eyed Golden Ni saw various pretty ornaments and delicious foods. She couldn't help wanting to reach out and touch those ornaments and taste that food.
Lang Chen pulled her back and said, "Some of these things might be dangerous; you need to figure them out before touching them."
Obediently pulling back her hand, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni said, "Alright."
At this moment, a peddler saw the Three-Eyed Golden Ni and said in surprise, "This young lady is truly pretty!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni smiled somewhat shyly.
Lang Chen looked at the peddler vigilantly, fearing he might harbor any improper intentions.
As time passed, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni gradually adapted to life in the human world. She made some new friends and also learned many new things. Yet she never forgot her mission: she was going to explore the human world and seek her own future. Hearing these words, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni frowned slightly and looked at the passerby in puzzlement.
Lang Chen stepped forward, shielding the Three-Eyed Golden Ni behind him, and said, "What are you talking nonsense for! This is my friend, not some Soul Beast!"
The passerby looked at the Three-Eyed Golden Ni in terror and said, "How can that be? She is clearly a powerful Soul Beast. Let's run quickly, or we'll be hurt by her!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni said with a somewhat aggrieved tone, "I am not a Soul Beast, I mean no harm..."
But the passersby wouldn't listen at all and scattered in all directions.
Lang Chen said helplessly to the Three-Eyed Golden Ni, "It seems human prejudice against Soul Beasts runs very deep indeed."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni bit her lower lip and said, "I will prove it to them; I am not what they imagine." Hearing the Three-Eyed Golden Ni's words, Lang Chen scratched his head and said, "I've never thought about transforming into a human; it's much more comfortable staying like this."
The Three-Eyed Golden Ni smiled and said, "That's a real pity. If you were to transform into a human, you'd definitely be a handsome young man."
At this time, some other people passed by. Seeing the Three-Eyed Golden Ni and Lang Chen conversing, they all cast curious gazes.
Looking at those people, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni said, "The human world is truly wondrous, having so many different people."
Lang Chen nodded and said, "Indeed, but there are also many unknown dangers and challenges. We must be even more careful." Lang Chen nodded slightly, then quietly vanished into a nearby corner.
Meanwhile, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni continued her exploration of the human world, experiencing the novelty of this world while keeping a lookout for surrounding movements.
Suddenly, the Three-Eyed Golden Ni sensed an unusual aura approaching and looked around vigilantly.
At that moment, a dark shadow flashed past behind her. The Three-Eyed Golden Ni's heart tightened; she knew that was a potential danger.
She said softly, "Lang Chen, you must be careful."
And Lang Chen, hidden in the dark, also constantly monitored the Three-Eyed Golden Ni's situation, ready to appear in time whenever she needed him. Xu Gao'er stood there, feeling somewhat nervous in her heart. Looking at everything around her, she said softly, "From now on, my name is Xu Gao'er."
At that moment, some other people approached. Upon seeing Xu Gao'er, they all revealed surprised expressions.
One of them said, "Why did this young lady suddenly change her name?"
Xu Gao'er smiled and said, "This is my own decision."
Meanwhile, Lang Chen in the shadows was somewhat surprised to hear that Xu Gao'er had changed her name, but he still silently guarded her.
