Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 145 Jing Hongchen's Preparations for Shrek

Ye Guyi looked at the auspicious beast that came back quickly and couldn't help but exclaimed:
How could this little girl catch a ten thousand year old soul beast so easily? Is this Xingdou Great Forest her home? Her efficiency in catching soul beasts is too high!
Xiao Hongchen looked at the soul beast thrown out by the auspicious beast, a trace of joy flashed across his face, and he grinned:

"You have lived up to my care for you in the academy. This fellow is indeed a very suitable soul beast for me. Thank you very much."

"It's okay. Lin Dong's friends are my friends. That's how it should be."

Lin Dong glanced at her. How could this girl be so familiar with others? Xiao Hongchen blushed and said angrily:

“Okay, okay, everything is related to Lin Dong. Next time I will thank Lin Dong directly.”

Then he patted Lin Dong on the shoulder and said, "You're right, right? You don't like to talk, but you have so many friends. Even this genius is a little jealous of you."

Lin glanced at him calmly: "Why don't you start absorbing? If you don't take action now, the soul beast will die."

Xiao Hongchen glared at him with a red face, turned around happily, dealt with the soul beast cleanly and neatly, and began to refine the soul ring.

Everyone waited for two full hours before Xiao Hongchen completed his refining. He showed no joy at all for his successful breakthrough and glanced at Lin Dong.

Everyone covered their mouths to hold back their laughter. He had refined his spirit ring for even less years than Lin Dong, but it took him so much longer than Lin Dong. It was really frustrating to compare yourself to others!
Obviously, with the help of Lin Dong, he had transformed his soul power and his cultivation speed had improved significantly, but he always felt that the gap between them seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

Lin Dong looked at Xiao Hongchen who looked unhappy, shrugged and asked deliberately:

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Xiao Hongchen's already red face turned red and he shouted:
"I want to duel with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Dong's raised fist and suddenly became much more honest. He sighed dejectedly:

"Forget it, you guy, the Soul Sect defeated the Soul Saint, and I won't ask for trouble."

Ye Guyi was shocked when she heard this. She even couldn’t believe her ears, although she knew that Lin Dong was the young hero of the Sun Moon Empire.

But Soul Sect fighting Soul Saint, is this a joke? You know, in Douluo Continent, once you reach the Soul Saint realm, your strength will be greatly improved.

After all, the rumored martial soul avatar has a very abnormal defensive power! As a result, Xiao Hongchen actually said that Lin Dong could defeat the Soul Saint at the Soul Sect level. This is simply incredible!
But when she carefully observed everyone's expressions, she realized that she was the only one who was surprised. Could it be that... what Xiao Hongchen said was true? !

Looking at Ye Guyi's wide-open eyes, Xiao Hongchen scratched his head and said with a smile:

"You look surprised. I'm not kidding. This guy is very violent when he fights."

After hearing this, Ye Guyi covered his mouth and chuckled: "Then I really want to see how violent it is."

Lin Dong slapped Xiao Hongchen on the back of his head and said unhappily:
"Okay, stop being so funny. We've finished our business, and it's time to go back."

"Hey, what about Ye Guyi's evil soul beast? What should we do?" Xiao Hongchen suddenly asked curiously.

The auspicious beast pursed his lips and interjected:

"There are no evil spirit beasts in the Xingdou Great Forest. They have all been killed long ago. If there are any, they are probably only in the Demon Forest.

After all, the second most powerful soul beast on the continent, the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord, is there, and there is none in the Star Dou Great Forest anyway."

Seeing the auspicious beast so confident, Ye Guyi became even more curious. Why did the people around this guy seem so mysterious?

She had never seen anyone who dared to say that he had the most profound understanding of the Star Dou Great Forest, but in order to integrate into the group, and because she had indeed never seen an evil soul beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, she nodded and replied:

"Okay, then... let's go home?"

Lin Dong suddenly said calmly at this moment: "How about I go directly to the Body Sect?"

Jing Hongchen's expression changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down and smiled at Lin Dong:
"Are you in such a hurry? Our relationship with Shrek is very delicate now. How can you guarantee your safety when you go to the Body Sect?"

A smile flashed across Lin Dong's face, which looked quite brilliant under the sunlight:

"If those bastards really dare to kill me, they will definitely pay the price in blood."

The worry on Jing Hongchen's face did not ease at all, instead he also showed a slightly ferocious smile:

"That won't do. Those bastards at Shrek are worthless. How can they compare to you?"

Ye Guyi was watching from the side, and a sudden sense of fear arose in his heart when he saw these two men with murderous auras.

The auras of the two of them were the most terrifying she had ever seen in such a long time, especially Lin Dong, even though he was smiling when he said that.

But the murderous aura emanating from his body feels much stronger than that of Jing Hongchen, the peerless powerful man!
How could such evil spirit, which could only be accumulated from killing countless people, appear in a boy so young? This is really too unbelievable!
What shocked Ye Guyi the most was why Shrek, which had a thousand years of glory, would send people to kill Lin Dong, the young man who had just become a Soul King?

Jing Hongchen's words were even more difficult to accept: Shrek's bastard, his life was worthless?
Isn't Shrek the most prestigious academy on the continent? Why do they seem to be full of malice towards Shrek?

Seeing Ye Guyi's open mouth, Lin Dong slowly restrained his smile and looked at her and explained:

"Don't be afraid. We just have some problems with Shrek. It has nothing to do with you. We are usually very friendly."

Ye Guyi's mouth twitched inadvertently, "Kind"? From the expression you just showed, you can't tell that these two words have anything to do with you!
But she still looked at him, smiled and shook her head, and said in a kind tone:

"No, I'm not scared, I'm just curious about you. Since you're leaving, I wish you a rapid increase in your cultivation."

“Thank you.” A smile appeared on Lin Dong’s face, which was much softer than when he mentioned Shrek before.

Xiao Hongchen also put away the giggle on his face and said in a serious tone:

“Take good care of yourself. If you are wronged in the Body Sect, ask Grandpa to leave a communication method and be sure to tell us.

Although I am not strong enough right now, as long as you tell me, I will definitely find a way to get here, or at worst I can just call someone."

When he said the last few words, a hint of inadvertent dejection flashed across his face. Although his talent was okay, it was obvious that what Lin Dong was facing now was no longer a matter that a Soul Emperor or even a Soul Saint could solve. All he could do was probably to ask for help. For the first time, he felt that his talent was not as strong as he had always said.

Lin Dong seemed to see what was on his mind, patted his shoulder, and bumped his shoulder:

"Hey, come on, you're a man and you're doing this, that's too sentimental."

Seeing the smile on Lin Dong's face, Xiao Hongchen's eyes softened, he lowered his head slightly and whispered:
"Don't talk nonsense! I'm not being sentimental. I just met a rare opponent and I don't want him to die like this. Besides, we all owe you a favor, and I'm not a beast who doesn't know how to repay a favor."

Lin Dong stretched out his hand and ruffled his fluffy white hair:
"Alright, alright, don't worry. I value my life. How can I joke about it before I achieve my goal? I'm not going to attack Shrek alone."

Xiao Hongchen lowered his head for a moment, then slowly raised his head and forced out an uninhibited smile:

"How can this be possible? How can I let you do such a cool thing? You have to leave it to me."

After saying that, he turned his head slightly and squeezed out only two words: "Take care."

Lin Dong looked at him deeply. Although this arrogant guy was a little proud, he had good intentions deep in his heart. Lin Dong had felt this more than once...

I shook my head helplessly. If I had known this would happen, I would have gone back to the academy first and left secretly...

There were some ripples in Meng Hongchen's eyes. He moved his lips and said in a clear voice:

"I heard that the second awakening method of the Body Sect's body martial soul takes longer than expected. I guess we won't see each other for a long time... You have to... protect yourself."

Hearing her hesitant tone, Lin Dong nodded helplessly and smiled:
"Don't worry, nothing can happen to me. Anyone who dares to attack me will die before me."

Meng Hongchen looked at his indifferent smile, a little loneliness flashed in her eyes, she still didn't have the courage to say that, although she knew the result in her heart, she still had inexplicable expectations...

Jing Hongchen looked at the two of them with complicated eyes. Alas, this kid Lin Dong is good in everything, but he is too outstanding.

Even an old man like himself who always dotes on his granddaughter doubts whether his granddaughter is worthy of him. Moreover, Lin Dong seems to be obsessed with cultivation. It's difficult... difficult!
The auspicious beast blinked its big eyes and couldn't help but asked curiously:

"What are you doing? He's just going there to practice. Why are you making it seem like a life-and-death farewell?"

Xiao Hongchen adjusted his state and suddenly knocked on her head from behind, his slightly red eyes narrowed into an arc:
“What do you know? Those bastards at Shrek were able to do such a beastly thing more than a year ago. Lin Dong is alone this time. What if he is sold out by the Body Sect?”

The auspicious beast nodded, not quite understanding, stretched out his fingers and pinched his chin and muttered:
"Is that so? Then Lin Dong, you are my friend. If you can't beat him, I can help you."

Looking at her silly and cute expression, Lin Dong smiled silently, stretched out his finger, and flicked her forehead:
"Thank you in advance, but... I don't really like hiding behind women, although you can't really be considered a woman."

After hearing Lin Dong’s last words, the auspicious beast puffed out its chest in dissatisfaction:
"What are you talking about? You are not allowed to doubt my gender. I am a girl!"

“Okay, okay, you are, okay.” Lin Dong patted her head gently with some doting. The auspicious beast blushed slightly and remained silent.

Meng Hongchen looked at this scene, his eyes surged with some fluctuations, and suddenly an idea came to his mind:
Maybe... it's not impossible to be a sister?
Thinking of this, Meng Hongchen quickly shook his head and couldn't help but clenched his pink fists:

No, I must practice seriously this time when I go back. To deal with this guy, I must first have enough strength.

Lin Dong looked at Lin Jiayi and smiled politely: "Director, I have been in the academy for so long, thank you for your care."

Lin Jiayi waved his hand and smiled: "Well, rather than saying that you are a student of the college, it is better to say that it is an honor for the college to have you. Don't rush to deny it. You deserve this evaluation."

Seeing that Lin Dong wanted to say something, he looked at Jing Hongchen and said with a smile: “You said so, right, Dean?”

Jing Hongchen smiled gently and nodded repeatedly: "Of course!" He patted Lin Dong's shoulder and took out a jade flute-shaped object from his bosom and stuffed it into Lin Dong's hand:
"Hey, I felt something when I came out this time. I started preparing this thing since you made a bet with that old guy Du Bu Si."

Lin Dong was a little surprised when he felt the warmth in his hand. It was the first time he had seen something made of this material. He couldn't help but ask:

"Dean, what is this?"

"This is made of extremely rare jade, and it contains my soul power. If you are in danger, crush it immediately. Of course, I will be able to sense it then."

After listening to Jing Hongchen's explanation, Lin Dong couldn't help but frown. In his opinion, something similar to the soul transmitting message should not be possessed by this plane.

Looking at Lin Dong's expression, Jing Hongchen explained unnaturally:
"It is true that making this thing will cost some money, but it should still be within the range that I can accept."

“Price?” Lin Dong frowned and pressed again, “What price?”

Seeing Jing Hongchen's difficult expression, Lin Dong couldn't help but ask again:
"Dean, if you don't tell me, I won't take this thing."

Seeing that he was determined to do so, Jing Hongchen hesitated for a while before slowly speaking:
"This thing is infused with a very important kind of soul power of mine. When you crush this, my realm may be equivalent to not practicing for three years."

Lin Dong was horrified when he heard this. He had never expected Jing Hongchen to be willing to do this for him. This love was probably too much...

A trace of warmth surged through my heart, and I looked at Jing Hongchen and clasped my fists:
"Dean, I, Lin Dong, will remember this favor. Don't worry, I, Lin Dong, am not a beast who doesn't know how to repay a favor. I will definitely find a way to repay your kindness."

After hearing this, Jing Hongchen waved his hand and said with a smile: "What's the big deal? I really hope you don't need this thing. As long as you don't need it, you don't owe me a favor."

“That’s true, Dean. But thank you for your care.” Lin Dong smiled apologetically.

"Let's go. I'll take you to the Body Sect. The others will stay here. After all, with the auspicious beast here, they are all safe."

Lin Dong was about to refuse, but after looking at Jing Hongchen's eyes, he finally did not say the words of refusal.

He looked at the others and clasped his fists: "Everyone, the road ahead is long, take care."

Several people smiled at each other after hearing this. Looking at Lin Dong's leaving back, Xiao Hongchen whispered:

"I always feel that this time, after this guy leaves, he may not come back for a long time..."
