Douluo Dalu: The Frozen Throne

Chapter 171 The girl’s loss of control and grievance, Tian Ling borrows money!

Seeing Shu Yan's unhappy expression, and then seeing Luo Qinghan's head lowering, Tian Ling quickly came out to smooth things over:

"Um... Boss, don't blame Qinghan. This matter is actually..."

Before Tian Ling could finish her words, Shu Yan slapped her hard on the soft and plump buttocks behind her. After a crisp sound, Tian Ling's face turned red. She covered her back and stammered for a long time, but could not utter a word.

"Don't interrupt me. If you do, I won't let you sit down tomorrow."

Shu Yan glanced at Tian Ling, then his eyes fell on Luo Qinghan who was lowering his head.

"My impression of you is that you are smart and calm. I think you may know better than me what the quality of the soul bone produced by the Ten Thousand Year Illusion Butterfly is. Such a soul bone cannot help you and may even become a factor that drags you down in the future. Now, Luo Qinghan, tell me why you absorbed that soul bone."

Luo Qinghan slowly clenched her fair jade hands holding the wheelchair armrests. Shu Yan stared at her for a while, and seeing that she seemed to find it difficult to speak, he sighed softly and pushed her to the exclusive VIP lounge.

Tian Ling covered her buttocks, feeling the burning sensation. She hesitated for a moment, and after making sure that there was no one around, she quickly followed Shu Yan's steps.

……

Pushing open the door of the lounge, Shu Yan sent away the two maids who came to serve him, and after Tian Ling came in, he closed the door directly.

Xu Jiujiu is the chief auctioneer of the Starlight Auction House and the only gold-level auctioneer. In addition, she is a royal princess. Her status is so high that few in the entire Xingluo Empire can match her. Although Shu Yan rarely shows up in front of Xingluo's top leaders, he enjoys the same rights and status as Xu Jiujiu in all facilities belonging to the Xingluo royal family. In some respects, his rights and status are even higher than Xu Jiujiu. After all, Xu Jiujiu always listens to him.

Sitting on the soft and luxurious sofa, Shu Yan looked at Luo Qinghan, and then said softly:

"Tell me, you have to be responsible for yourself. You probably know your potential better than I do. Absorbing a soul bone like this is really not something you can do."

Silence, or a long silence.

Tian Ling sat aside and looked at Luo Qinghan with a worried look. She opened her mouth several times but never said anything.

Just when Shu Yan was getting impatient, Luo Qinghan's hoarse voice finally sounded:

"Perhaps I had too many things on my mind. During that time, I was a little obsessed with cultivation. The negative emotions accumulated over the years due to my disability had a great impact on my judgment. I began to give up on myself and began to doubt the meaning of cultivation. But at the same time, the principle of extremes will eventually turn into the opposite was clearly reflected in me."

"I began to desire to become stronger, and my father happened to send me this soul bone at that time. I had no intention of absorbing it, but I lost control of my emotions and couldn't hold it back. By the time I reacted, it was too late..."

After finishing speaking, Luo Qinghan lowered her head again. As a spiritual soul master, her control over her spiritual power was much higher than that of ordinary soul masters. The strength of her spiritual power made it easier for her to control her emotions, but on the other hand, once her emotions were negatively affected or even out of control, then when she exploded, it would be much more difficult to control than for ordinary soul masters.

What does Luo Qinghan desire most?
The first is to have a pair of normal and healthy legs.

The second is to become stronger.

That soul bone might not have much appeal to her when she was awake, but what about when she lost control and her desire to become stronger was infinitely magnified?
Even if it is only a little bit attractive, in that situation, one will not be able to resist the temptation and do stupid things. Being eager for quick success and instant benefits has always been a taboo in the practice of soul masters. How many soul masters have ruined their potential and even their lives because of impatience or even being affected by emotions. Luo Qinghan's situation is still relatively good. If it is more serious and he really goes astray, I am afraid Luo Qinghan will have to be a useless person for the rest of his life.

After understanding the cause and effect of the incident, Shu Yan was silent for a while, then leaned over and lifted the hem of Luo Qinghan's skirt. Luo Qinghan trembled all over, and almost subconsciously, she held down the hem of her skirt tightly, revealing only her straight calves with grayish-white skin.

The skin on Luo Qinghan's calves was so cold that it didn't feel like the skin of a human body. Shu Yan scolded him softly. Luo Qinghan was stunned, and then he felt a surge of grievance for no reason, but he didn't dare to move any more.

The gentle mental power spread out and turned into a circle of blue halo. The mental power flowed through the dead and disordered meridians. Soon, Shu Yan came to the conclusion.

Just as Luo Qinghan said at the beginning, simply relying on vitality is no longer enough to restore her disordered meridians. I'm afraid this can only be solved by a high-tech "modern surgery".

After thinking for a while, Shu Yan let go of Luo Qinghan's calf, turned around and leaned on the soft sofa, rubbed his eyebrows, and then said:

"You should practice well in the future. If you have any emotional problems again, come to me and solve them for you. Don't fight it alone. Do you understand?"

"In addition, in the near future, I will ask several soul guide seniors to develop a medical scanning soul guide similar to the Sun Moon Empire to assist in the treatment of your legs. Your potential is one of the most outstanding geniuses I have ever seen. Qian Gu Yue Yin is inferior to you in terms of... character even with the guidance of Elder Qian. I am very optimistic about your future. You need to see rewards for your efforts. Do you understand what I mean?"

Luo Qinghan raised his head and stared at Shu Yan for a long time, then nodded slightly and said:

"I won't let you down again."

Looking at Luo Qinghan's determined eyes, Shu Yan nodded with satisfaction.

The Ten Thousand Years Illusion Butterfly Skull occupies the most important position of the head soul bone for Luo Qinghan. This is a big problem, but to be honest, there is no precedent for replacing the head soul bone in the entire soul master world. Shu Yan also needs to explore for a while, but there will surely be a solution in the future, so there is no need to rush. …

Before sending the two away, Tian Ling walked in front of Shu Yan and pushed Luo Qinghan. She lowered her head slightly, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, and her twisted brows proved her conflicted mood at the moment. Until she was about to leave Shu Yan completely, she quickly turned around and threw a crumpled little paper ball to Shu Yan, then pushed Luo Qinghan away quickly, not giving Shu Yan a chance to speak at all.

Shu Yan was stunned for a moment, looking at the small ball of paper in his hand that was already a little damaged after being crumpled. He couldn't help but feel a little curious. He walked towards the deepest part of the Starlight Auction House while slowly opening the small ball of paper.

What catches your eye is a line of elegant handwriting with a hint of beauty. The content is simple and clear.

"Boss, please wait for me in the lounge, I'll be right back!"

Finally, he drew an exceptionally delicate little man. For some reason, Shu Yan felt that this little man looked a bit like himself.

Shu Yan was a little confused. He didn't know what Tian Ling wanted to talk to him about. However, when he was talking to Luo Qinghan just now, this girl had been writing and drawing. He thought she was bored, but now it seems that she was worried.

Looking at the time, Shu Yan was not in a hurry. Xu Jiujiu asked him to accompany her to a high-level cocktail party today, and she herself still had to deal with some trivial matters at the Starlight Auction House. There was plenty of time left, and Shu Yan didn't mind seeing what Tian Ling was up to.

……

In less than a quarter of an hour, Tian Ling rushed back to the Starlight Auction House, panting.

They had the royal tokens given by Shu Yan, so it was not difficult for them to enter places like the Starlight Auction House where nobles gathered. Otherwise, with the wealth of Luo Qinghan and Tian Ling, even if all of it was added together, they probably wouldn't even have the chance to enter the Starlight Auction House.

Looking at Tian Ling, whose face was slightly red, Shu Yan poured her a cup of tea. After she drank it all, he asked softly:
"Where's Luo Qinghan? You can't just leave him alone on the street, right?"

Tian Ling chuckled, wiped the water stains from her lips, and said jokingly:

"Qinghan is my best friend, I can't just kick her into the ditch. Wang Lin and the others were training in the nearby fighting arena, so I sent Qinghan over to see them. I told her that I had some matters to deal with at the Chamber of Commerce, so I came over again."

As she spoke, Tian Ling moved her butt again and moved a little closer to Shu Yan.

Shu Yan put down the exquisite teacup in his hand, and then said with some amusement:
"Tell me, what do you want to do with me?"

Tian Ling showed an embarrassed smile when she heard that, hesitated for a moment, and then hugged Shu Yan's arm. It was an old-fashioned method, but Shu Yan enjoyed it very much. Not for anything else, but because Tian Ling's figure was so soft and comfortable, this perfect fullness was really rare, Xu Jiujiu, Ling Luochen, and even the two Ice and Snow Emperors all had slender figures, no one could compare to Tian Ling.

What is even more interesting is her face as a young woman, with its unusually youthful charm, which is truly the best of the best.

"Um... Boss, I want a soul bone from this auction. Could you please do me a favor..."

Tian Ling's little face became pitiful, with a hint of begging in her charming eyes. While speaking, her jade hand had already touched Shu Yan's chest, and she was being very dishonest.

Shu Yan became more and more curious. With the size of the family chamber of commerce behind Tian Ling, it might not be able to compete with those top businessmen, but at least four or five million gold soul coins could be taken out. Even if the funds she could mobilize in the chamber of commerce were not enough, as long as she asked, no matter how poor Luo Qinghan and the others were, each of them could at least lend her hundreds of thousands or even more gold soul coins. If they were added together, it would be a considerable amount of funds. Even so, she could actually ask for help from him. It seemed that the soul bone she wanted was not an ordinary item.

"Tell me, what kind of soul bone can make you suffer so much? I'm afraid you've been planning to do something bad to me since you met me here today..."

Seeing that Shu Yan had no intention of blaming her, Tian Ling gradually grew bolder. She stuck out her tongue, smiled a little embarrassedly, and then said:

"Boss, you are really smart. The soul bone I want is indeed a little expensive..."

"Tell me, how many gold soul coins..."

Shu Yan spread his hands helplessly.

Tian Ling rolled her eyes, her voice became softer, and then she said:
"Well, not much, right? It is said that... about... it should be... 30 million gold soul coins?"

Shu Yan was choked. After returning to his spiritual state, he looked at Tian Ling, who looked guilty, rubbed his brows, and said helplessly:
"Tell me, how many gold soul coins are there?"

"Hmm...hehe, fifty million..."

"...?"
