Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 699 It seems she's gotten herself into trouble.
Zhang Lexuan nodded, somewhat helplessly.

"Although Xiaotao and the others' mission has nothing to do with us, I just can't help but want to take care of them."

As the senior disciple of the inner academy, she had long been accustomed to acting as a patriarch for the students of the inner academy.

Jiang Ming had similar thoughts; to some extent, both he and Zhang Lexuan were people with a strong sense of responsibility.

"Yuhao didn't tell me either. It must have been something the teacher and Elder Xuan said."

Jiang Ming sighed softly. He could imagine what Elder Mu and Elder Xuan had said to Huo Yuhao and the others.

Clearly, Elder Mu and Elder Xuan didn't want them involved.

He could even guess what mission Huo Yuhao and the others were going to carry out this time.

After all, the only missions on the mainland that could get the Sea God Pavilion to send three members—Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Huo Yuhao—are to rescue the Soul Masters from the academies and sects of the three great empires of the Douluo Continent who have been detained in the Sun Moon Empire.

As for why they came to the South China Sea, they probably planned to take a long detour, crossing the sea from the South China Sea of ​​the Star Luo Empire to enter the Sun Moon Empire from the sea.

Currently, the Sun Moon Empire is basically under martial law along its entire border. Based on his understanding of the Sun Moon Empire, there should be a large number of Soul Master Corps and high-altitude detection Soul Guidance Devices deployed along the border between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire and the Heavenly Soul Empire.

With Ma Xiaotao and her group's strength, they weren't capable enough to cross the border.

Therefore, taking a long detour by sea is a more conservative and prudent approach.

Jiang Ming shared his guess with Zhang Lexuan, who had a similar idea.

She had guessed that, given the current situation, mobilizing the academy's elite forces could hardly be for any other mission.

"I guess Elder Xuan and the others are already on the border between the Star Luo Empire or the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Sun Moon Empire. If they want to infiltrate the Sun Moon Empire from the sea, they'll have to make a big commotion on the land border."

Jiang Ming said softly.

In his view, the plan was acceptable: the elders on land would create a big commotion to attract the attention of the Sun Moon Empire, and these people would enter the Sun Moon Empire from the sea.

Moreover, given that Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen are both Title Douluo with ultimate martial souls, even if they fail to save people, as long as they don't encounter the top experts of the Sun Moon Empire, such as Long Xiaoyao, Ye Xishui, Zhongli Wu, or those top soul masters, they can leave without any problem.

But that's where the danger lies.

What if we run into each other?

If the other side keeps sending one or two such powerful individuals to guard the detained Soul Masters, waiting for them to take the bait, then they will be in great trouble!

If Elder Xuan and his group make a commotion on the border, they might be able to lure out all these powerful figures. But if they don't, or if they don't lure them all out, the probability of an accident will greatly increase.

If there were no risks involved in this operation, Jiang Ming wouldn't actually want to participate. He had promised Elder Mu that he would get some rest.

But in this case...
"Sister Lexuan, what do you think?"

Jiang Ming wrapped his arms around Zhang Lexuan's waist, rested his chin on her hair, and asked softly.

He can choose to participate in this task or not.

The difference is that if he participates, there is basically no risk, but if he doesn't participate, there will be some risk, and once that risk occurs, it will be fatal!
When Jiang Ming asked for her opinion, Zhang Lexuan turned her head slightly and pointed her finger at Jiang Ming's heart.

"Why are you asking me? Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Just follow your heart, I'll listen to you."

After all these years, how could she not understand Jiang Ming's thoughts?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming's lips curled into a slight smile.

He held Zhang Lexuan in his arms and rubbed his face against her delicate cheek.

"Sister Lexuan, you're so kind."

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, as the sun rose above the sea, creating shimmering waves, Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, Huo Yuhao, Xu Sanshi, and the others had already disappeared from the room.

In his room on the third floor, Jiang Ming said helplessly as he put on his clothes, "Those guys were afraid we'd get involved, so they left before dawn."

"No matter how fast they walk, you can definitely catch up. What's the rush?"

Zhang Lexuan tidied her clothes in front of the mirror in the room.

I should have known better than to give Jiang Ming those oysters and sea cucumbers last night. He's such a beast.

"Hehe, Sister Lexuan understands me so well!"

Jiang Ming smiled.

Indeed, let alone Huo Yuhao, the one with the lowest cultivation level in Ma Xiaotao's team, his flying speed was so fast that even if Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen, both titled Douluo, ran as fast as they could, he could still catch up with them.

In terms of speed, there are almost no ones on this continent who can outrun him.

After calmly tidying up, Jiang Ming and Zhang Lexuan flew out of the seaside villa. With a single grasp of his hand, the villa was placed directly into the small world, while the large crater on the ground was easily smoothed out by Jiang Ming using the power of the earth.

"Let's go."

Jiang Ming reached out and hugged Zhang Lexuan in his arms. With a flap of his cyan-purple wind and thunder wings, he instantly disappeared on the beach.

Ma Xiaotao and her group set off two hours earlier than Jiang Ming, but because the members of the team had varying levels of cultivation, with Huo Yuhao, the lowest among them, only being a Soul King, their speed was not much faster even with the assistance of a level seven flying soul tool.

In less than half an hour, Jiang Ming caught up with Ma Xiaotao and her group.

Of course, Jiang Ming did not reveal his presence.

Since Elder Mu and Elder Xuan don't want him to participate directly, or rather, they want to use this operation to train these people, then he can simply not show himself.

If something unexpected happens, he'll be there to back us up, and nothing serious will happen. If nothing unexpected happens, he won't show up, and everyone will be happy.

Meanwhile, Wang Qiu'er, who had previously said she was going home, appeared in a forest.

The fresh air is mixed with the fragrance of nature, and the chirping of insects and birds echoes in the forest.

Sunlight streamed down, but was blocked by the dense canopy of trees, leaving only faint slivers of light and shadow on the ground.

Under a huge tree that would require at least ten people to encircle, a person was sitting.

Her light blue waves cascaded down her back, and because she was sitting, her waist-length hair fell to the ground.

Her eyes were closed, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her high nose bridge, fair skin, and pink lips all exemplified the definition of beauty.

She sat cross-legged, her back ramrod straight, her entire body a perfect silhouette. Even with her eyes closed, she exuded an aura of icy indifference, keeping everyone at bay. Within a radius of several hundred meters around her, there were no large creatures.

If Jiang Ming were here, he would recognize this place at a glance.

The Star Dou Great Forest, the core area, is a perilous place known as one of the most mysterious places in the Douluo Continent!
Even Jiang Ming, whose strength had reached the peak of humanity, was almost crushed to death here by Di Tian's Dragon King Claw.

For humans, this is an absolute no-go zone!
Even a Super Douluo wouldn't dare to come to this place easily, because half of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts live here!

Generally speaking, the cultivation level of a 100,000-year-old soul beast is equivalent to that of a human titled Douluo. The difference in strength can only be determined by the soul beast's own innate abilities and the titled Douluo's martial soul and soul skills.

Once a soul beast breaks through its bottleneck and has two hundred thousand years of cultivation, its abilities are comparable to those of a Super Douluo.

Every 100,000 years thereafter is a life-or-death test for the soul beasts, but there is no doubt that after each breakthrough of the life-or-death limit, the strength of the soul beasts will undergo earth-shattering changes.

In terms of strength, if it were in the far north, the Ice Emperor's strength would be on par with Elder Xuan!
Once a soul beast breaks through the 500,000-year mark, it becomes equivalent to a Limit Douluo. In other words, the Snow Empress is on the same level as the Dragon Emperor Douluo, Long Xiaoyao. If they were in the far north, even Long Xiaoyao would avoid her.

If Xue Di weren't currently just a spirit without a physical body, she alone could rival Long Xiaoyao.

In the world of soul beasts, including the Snow Empress, five of the ten known ferocious beasts have reached the Limit Douluo realm.

These five individuals hold extremely prominent positions in the world of soul beasts; they are the top five among the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.

At this moment, within the perilous core of the Star Dou Great Forest, reside five of the ten most ferocious beasts, ranked first, fourth, fifth, sixth, and eighth.

But even under these circumstances, Wang Qiu'er actually appeared here!

If people at Shrek Academy who know Wang Qiu'er saw this, they would be extremely surprised.

Even if it were Elder Xuan, or even Jiang Ming, they wouldn't be this relaxed here!

"You've been back for a few days now, why have you been so gloomy?"

A beam of emerald light appeared before Wang Qiu'er, and then a stunningly beautiful figure walked towards her and sat down beside her.

Emerald Swan Brigitte!

Although she doesn't have particularly strong offensive capabilities, her healing abilities are at the level of a Limit Douluo!
However, there are no human soul masters of this level.

Wang Qiu'er opened her eyes, glanced at Bi Ji, and remained silent.

She was wondering whether she should tell Brigitte that she had fallen in love with a human Soul Master and had even become his disciple.

Since Biji knows, it's equivalent to Ditian knowing.

Moreover, when she left the Star Dou Great Forest and headed to the human city, Di Tian told her to keep an eye out for Jiang Ming's situation.

But the current result
She seems to have gotten herself into this mess.

"You can tell me if you have any worries. It's really hard to keep things bottled up inside."

Brigitte's voice was very gentle. She reached out and stroked Wang Qiu'er's hair with a hint of affection.

Since the Emperor Beast descended upon the Star Dou Great Forest, although all the ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest desired the auspiciousness brought by the Emperor Beast, she and Di Tian had watched the Emperor Beast grow up. In fact, it could be said that she and Di Tian were practically the Emperor Beast's parents.

That's why she came out to ask what happened when she saw the Emperor Beast looking sullen.

“Bridget. It’s me.”

Wang Qiu'er hesitated for a moment.

This was the first time she had experienced something like this, and she didn't know whether she should tell anyone.

But in this Star Dou Great Forest, if she had to say who she trusted most, it would be Bi Ji and Di Tian in front of her.

She adjusted her posture, hugged her calves with both hands, rested her chin on her knees, and said somewhat bewilderedly, "Bridget, I think I've fallen for a human."

Upon hearing this, even though Brigitte was somewhat prepared, she was still shocked and her eyes widened in surprise.

"You...you've fallen in love with a human?!"

incredible.

This is an imperial auspicious beast!
She actually fell in love with a human!
Seeing Bi Ji's surprised expression, Wang Qiu'er nodded slightly.

"I don't know when I started liking him, but the feeling was wonderful, so beautiful. But he already has someone he likes. Brigitte, what should I do?"

Brigitte's mind was already somewhat confused.

The Imperial Beast went to a human city and actually fell in love with a human!
Moreover, this human even has someone he likes.

This is too.
After thinking for a few seconds, Brigitte calmed her turbulent emotions, looked at the Imperial Beast, and asked softly, "Who is the human you like? What's his name?"

While Brigitte was surprised, she was also a little curious.

It's important to understand that the Imperial Auspicious Beast is an extremely special being. Its auspicious aura grants her the ability to ward off evil and attract good fortune in many situations. This is why she and Di Tian dared to let the Imperial Auspicious Beast transform into a human and go into the human world.

First, Emperor Tian gave the Emperor Beast some defensive measures; second, the Emperor Beast itself is favored by Heaven and Earth and possesses great fortune.

Without any other external influences, this auspicious fortune and good luck will affect every decision the Imperial Beast makes, making her decisions tend to be the best for her.

From trivial matters in life to life-or-death crises, this kind of fortune can have an impact.

And then you meet someone you like.
Even without mentioning the imperial auspicious beast, Biji knew that the other party was no ordinary being.

To be favored by an imperial auspicious beast, the other party must possess great fortune to some extent; otherwise, the imperial auspicious beast's fortune and auspiciousness alone would not have made her choose to like it.

When Biji asked this question, Wang Qiu'er pursed her lips, somewhat afraid to look Biji in the eye.

Seeing the Emperor Beast's expression, Brigitte had a bad feeling.

The expression on the imperial mythical beast's face undoubtedly meant that she might know the person she liked!
"Yes, it's Jiang Ming."

After saying that, Wang Qiu'er buried her face in her thighs.

When Brigitte heard the name, her pupils dilated slightly, and then a look of "I knew it" appeared on her face.

Yes, the most likely person to be favored by the Emperor Beast and possess great fortune is the human who once came to the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest and single-handedly fought against the five ferocious beasts!
