Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 140 The Auspicious Beast's Request and Transaction
Half a month later, early in the morning.

"I'm already level 47, and I'm out of elixirs. I should go ask the dean for some."

Lin Dong pushed open the door and walked towards Mingde Hall. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure with long golden hair tied into a ponytail. Under the sunlight, she looked extremely dazzling.

This is... When Lin Dong was feeling confused, the figure suddenly turned around. He was wearing a silver-white long skirt and silver boots.

Her already fair skin, under the sunlight, appears as delicate and cute as a porcelain doll, but there is a hint of heroic spirit between her eyebrows.

There was a familiar aura about her, but she looked like someone he had never seen before. Suddenly, the mysterious woman walked straight towards Lin Dong, looking at him and approaching him fiercely:
"How about it? You shouldn't be angry about my transformation this time, right?"

Lin Dong's mouth twitched after hearing this. It turned out to be that auspicious beast. It looked at her and said calmly:

"I don't care what you look like, as long as it's not someone I'm familiar with. Just like it."

The auspicious beast looked at him and shook its head, then leaned closer and whispered:

"Hey, don't be so cold. After all, our spiritual consciousnesses have intersected. I came here specifically to find you."

Lin Dong glanced at her and said in a cold tone:
"Aren't you the auspicious beast of the Xingdou Great Forest? The encounter between our spiritual consciousnesses that day should not have caused you any harm, so why are you looking for me?"

The auspicious beast seemed not to notice the coldness in his tone. Instead, it shook its head, pointed its finger at its chin and said:

"Well, how do I explain this? I'm very interested in you."

Lin Dong's eyes flashed with impatience, and he asked in a bad tone: "What are you talking about?"

"Why are you reacting so strongly? I didn't say I was going to do anything to you. I'm just curious about what's in your memory.

After all, that day, I only came into contact with a few important fragments of your memory. Rather than being interested in you, I am more curious about human emotions. "

After hearing her words, Lin Dong finally reacted and waved his hand at her:
"In that case, go find other humans. I'm busy. Don't bother me."

Seeing his cold attitude, Ruishou couldn't help but feel a little confused:
After all, I am a very high-ranking auspicious beast in the Star Dou Great Forest. Why does this guy look at me with disdain? Is it because I have changed my appearance and become ugly?

Watching Lin Dong leaving, the auspicious beast couldn’t help but call out to stop him:
"Hey, wait a minute. You're the only one I know right now, and I don't want to meet anyone else. How about you take me around the human world?"

Lin Dong paused, looked at the clinging auspicious beast with a headache, and spoke softly:
"You are the auspicious beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, so you don't have to worry about your life. I still have to be busy practicing, so where do I get so much time to hang out?"

After saying that, he turned away without paying any attention to her. The auspicious beast fell into deep thought. After a moment, he trotted after her and patted him on the shoulder:

"Hey, don't you want to become stronger? I'll take you to find the soul beast that suits you best. How about you take me around the human world? I'm sure your trip won't be in vain."

Lin Dong's eyes moved slightly after hearing this. This seemed to be a solution. Absorbing soul rings could also increase the level, which could speed up his cultivation.

Seeing that he had fallen into silence, the auspicious beast could not help but pull at the corner of his clothes and shook it. It blinked its big golden eyes and looked up expectantly:

"Isn't this enough? Absorbing spirit rings is the fastest way to practice. You said you wanted to practice. If you still feel angry about me turning into someone else last time, then I will apologize to you again."

Seeing her taking the initiative, Lin Dong shook his head helplessly, then nodded after hesitating for a moment:
"Okay, then when do we leave?"

The auspicious beast narrowed its eyes and smiled: "Hehe, you have to accompany me to visit the human world first, then I can take you to hunt soul beasts. Besides, you are not yet level 50, what's the point of reaching level 47?"

Lin Dong replied calmly: "Level is not a problem. Since we want to go shopping, how about this? I will find two people to go with us tonight."

After hearing this, the auspicious beast nodded happily: "Okay! Then I will come to find you in the evening."

"Well, let's go."

"See you tonight."

Watching Lin Dong's departing figure, the auspicious beast's golden eyes flashed with something strange. This guy wants benefits before he is willing to accompany me. How realistic...

But, this is not bad, at least I can get to know humans. This guy should be the more interesting one among humans...

After parting with the auspicious beast, Lin Dong clenched his palm into a fist, tapped his forehead and sighed:
"Alas, why is this auspicious beast pestering me? Could it really be related to the intersection of spiritual consciousness? Forget it. Looking at its appearance, its intelligence is not that high. It will be much easier to hunt spirit rings with its help."

“Tsk tsk, it’s more than a lot easier. As long as you take the auspicious beast to the Xingdou Great Forest, except for those hundred thousand year soul beasts, ordinary ten thousand year soul beasts will not have the slightest chance to resist when they see it.”

When Lin Dong heard Bingdi speak, he replied in surprise: "Oh? There is such a thing?"

Tian Meng smiled and replied, "Hehe, of course. The importance of the auspicious beast to the Xingdou Great Forest is probably second only to Emperor Tian. In fact, to some extent, it is even more important than Emperor Tian. What do you think?"

Lin Dong couldn't help but be moved after hearing this. He didn't expect that this auspicious beast, which looked not very intelligent, actually had such a status. Before he could ask, Tian Meng explained again:

“Not only in the Xingdou Great Forest, but wherever the auspicious beast goes, it is respected by the soul beasts. So as long as it is there, as long as you go to the soul beast’s territory, it will give you face.

It can be said that this little guy is a rare thigh like Xue Di. "

Lin Dong smiled and nodded: "I see, that's a good thing. I've been busy practicing these past few months, so it's not bad to go out and relax."

"Hey! That's right. Only by combining work and rest can we make further progress. If we practice like crazy every day, we will become stupid."

Before Lin Dong could answer, Bingdi suddenly complained:
“There is nothing wrong with combining work and rest, but if you combine work and rest like this, it’s not that you are stupid because of your practice, but that you are stupid because of your rest.”

Tian Meng replied in a frivolous way: "Hehe, Bingbing, what's the big deal? All we have to do now is to follow Lin Dong's steps. Isn't it just around the corner to become a god? What's wrong with clinging to someone powerful?"

Bingdi glared at him and said unhappily, “Get lost, don’t call me that, do you think everyone is the same as you…” As he spoke, he suddenly saw Lin Dong’s true form in his spiritual sea out of the corner of his eye, and his tone softened:

"Well... it seems that there is really no problem. What we can do to help Lin Dong now is to introduce him to some soul beasts and help him when necessary."

Hearing what the two said, Lin Dong showed a relaxed smile on his face, shook his head, and continued walking towards Mingde Hall.

With Lin Dong's current fame in Mingde Hall, he walked to Jing Hongchen's office without any obstacles. After briefly introducing his purpose, Jing Hongchen clapped his hands:
"Don't prepare yet."

Not long after, the messenger came in holding a jade plate. On it was a pill similar to the one Meng Hongchen had sent half a month ago.

"Thank you, Dean."

Jing Hongchen waved his hand and replied generously: "Oh, what's there to thank me for? If I hadn't expected you to eat so quickly, the people I sent would have delivered it to your room. Why would you have to come to my door to ask for it?"

Lin Dong smiled silently, looked at him and clasped his fists: "Then I will leave first, Dean."

"Well, your recent training progress is finally much better than before. Although it will be a blow to the group of little guys in the academy, it is still more acceptable than half a month ago."

Seeing that he was about to turn around and leave, Jing Hongchen smiled and joked.

"Dean, you are joking. I won't say any more to you. I will go back to practice."

Lin Dong smiled, bowed, and replied, then turned and walked out of the office.

Watching him leave, Jing Hongchen's eyes flashed with joy. He finally took the initiative to ask for something, but...

I was originally worried that this little guy would ignore his cultivation level because of his strong ability to challenge beyond the boundary. Now it seems that I was worrying for nothing...

night.

Lin Dong, who had just finished training, heard a knock on the door, stood up and walked out of the room. He looked at the three people dressed in fancy clothes outside the door, and said to Xiao Hongchen in uniform:

"Let's go, you are a famous rich young master in Mingdu. I'll trouble you to take the three of us for a walk today."

Xiao Hongchen smiled easily and patted his shoulder:

"Well, you're welcome. I was the one who teased you before, but now you're teasing me. I'll do it reluctantly today and show you what life is all about."

Seeing his naughty smile, Lin Dong couldn't help but kick him:
"Alright, I'm praising you, but you're so proud of yourself. Stop talking nonsense and lead the way."

Meng Hongchen and Ruishou smiled softly behind their backs. After a moment, Ruishou looked at Meng Hongchen and smiled, then asked in a low voice:
"Sister Meng, are all you humans so interesting? Your brother seems to be very good at joking."

After spending the past few days with the auspicious beast, Meng Hongchen realized that the auspicious beast had no other feelings for Lin Dong and was just a soul beast with its intelligence just beginning to develop.

With girls' comics as a common topic, the two get along quite well. After all, Ruishou's current appearance is the result of their studying many comics.

Meng Hongchen looked at the auspicious beast and laughed softly, "Don't think they are so harmonious now. When Lin Dong first came, he laughed very arrogantly, although Lin Dong didn't try to please others.

But, how should I put it, they weren’t very friendly when they first met, and Lin Dong always looked like he was keeping everyone at a distance.”

A warm smile appeared on his face as he spoke: "But it's much better now. At least we are still good friends."

The auspicious beast looked at Meng Hongchen who was mumbling, nodded as if he understood, and suddenly said:
"By the way, Sister Meng, when you talked about the two of them, you seemed to have a lot of topics to talk about. I remember the comics we read, which seemed to say that when you can't stop talking about someone, this feeling is called joy..."

Before she could finish her words, a white hand covered her mouth. After she stopped talking, Meng Hongchen let go of her hand with a blushing face.

"Um...what are you doing, Sister Meng? What did I say wrong?" Ruishou was a little confused by her sudden action and couldn't help but ask in confusion.

Meng Hongchen smiled awkwardly: "Nothing, I just suddenly felt like yawning."

Do you humans cover other people's mouths when you yawn? The auspicious beast thought so in his heart, but did not speak. Suddenly, a voice came:
"Meng, what are you guys whispering about in the back? Are you guessing what this genius has planned?"

Meng Hongchen replied angrily: "Go away, just stay with your Lin Dong, why do you care about us girls?"

The auspicious beast looked at the scene in front of it, and was filled with endless doubts. Humans are really strange. They were just talking about each other, but when they were waiting for each other to reply, why did they behave like this? I don’t understand...

Led by Xiao Hongchen, the four came to a high-end hotel in the center of Ming City.

Qingse Hotel, a hotel with a very distinctive name, is only one kilometer away from Mingyue Hotel and two kilometers away from the Sun and Moon Empire Palace. It is located in an absolutely prime location.

It’s just that the name of this hotel is often mispronounced and it’s easy to mistake it for an erotic hotel, but that’s why it got its name.

This is the property of Xishui League. As for whether the headquarters of Xishui League is here, no one knows.

Looking at the name of this hotel, Meng Hongchen couldn't help but glare at Xiao Hongchen:
"Hey, what kind of place did you choose? The name is so weird."

Xiao Hongchen spread his hands indifferently: "I can't help it. If I want to show you the world, I have to come to a place like this. The name is not important. What's important is what happens after you get in."

Lin Dong looked at the high-end hotel in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little confused. What kind of worldly things could there be in this place? However, his expression did not change at all.

Xiao Hongchen took a step forward and took out something similar to an identity card. The waiter in black immediately bowed ninety degrees and followed Xiao Hongchen towards the three people with a respectful expression.

After watching the three people bow and salute, he said in a somewhat flattering tone:
"Dear distinguished guests, the competition will begin soon. We will arrange the most distinguished seats for you. Please follow me."

At this moment, Xiao Hongchen exuded the aura of a nobleman and said lightly, "Lead the way."

The waiter looked at a few people with a flattering look. Except for the girl with blonde hair and ponytail, whom he did not recognize, the remaining three were all of extremely noble status.

Especially the black-eyed boy in the middle, Lin Dong, the talented hero who has recently become famous in the empire. He not only represented Sun and Moon to win the championship of the continental tour competition.

It is said that the humiliating treaty signed by Shrek was also closely related to this young man. It can be said that Lin Dong is now a well-deserved young hero in the hearts of the people of the empire.

His popularity among the people even surpasses that of the current crown prince. He has to serve these important figures well, otherwise he might lose his head!
Several people came to the hotel lobby, but the waiter had no intention of going inside. Instead, he took them to a soul-guided elevator.

Several people stepped into the elevator and stopped after about ten seconds. When the door opened again, the atmosphere of decadence and debauchery instantly overwhelmed them.

A few people followed the waiter out of the elevator, passed through a magnificent circular hall, and entered a large door in front of them. After the guard at the door saw them, he immediately opened the door and invited them in. He must have been notified in advance.

Entering the door, they seemed to have arrived in another world. The ceiling of the hall was neatly and regularly outlined by countless golden lines.

Rows of seats extended downwards, with escalators going up diagonally next to them. At the end of each escalator, there was a circular room suspended. There were eighteen such escalators and rooms in total. They vaguely formed a circle.

In the middle of the hall is a circular platform with a diameter of thirty meters, which seems to be a fighting arena.

Meng Hongchen looked at this scene and couldn't help but ask:
"Xiao, what is this place for? You mean this is where you come to see the world?"

Lin Dong and the auspicious beast simultaneously turned their gazes towards Xiao Hongchen, waiting for his explanation...
