Douluo: Man in the Endless World, Auspicious Beast of the Far North

Chapter 48 Ling Luochen's Reluctance
Ah this.

Yunze naturally knew what the expression of the girl in front of him meant.

To be honest, he had no idea about the girl in front of him. He was just a little amazed at her toughness.

And in terms of size, can she compare with Sister Xueer or Sister Luochen?
Even Sister Bing'er's little apple may not be able to compare to it, right?

However, Yunze still nodded politely to Ling Ruoxue, then turned and left.

Ling Ruoxue looked at Yunze's departing back with some disappointment, but secretly thought in her heart that if she had the chance, she must get closer to Master Yun!
Maybe I can seize the opportunity?

It’s good to be a friend!

The little girl quickly recovered from her disappointment and became excited.

Yunze came to Ling Luochen's courtyard. The latter had woken up and was sitting on a rattan chair in the courtyard reading a book.

He took a closer look at the book and found that Ling Luochen was looking at a soul beast atlas, and most of the soul beasts in it were ice-attribute soul beasts.

"Xiao Ze? You're here." Ling Luochen naturally noticed Yunze. Looking at Yunze who had changed into new clothes, his eyes lit up.

Although Yunze was originally wearing a fox fur coat and looked like a gentle nobleman, after changing into the clothes that Ling Luochen bought for him, he looked more like a young and handsome man.

"How is it? Do you feel that the clothes don't fit properly?" Ling Luochen asked with concern. Yunze naturally smiled and shook his head, "Of course not. Besides, even if there is, this is a gift from you, Sister Luochen. Of course I like it very much."

Ling Luochen didn't say anything, but the smile on his lips never faded.

Yunze pulled a chair over and sat down, then asked Ling Luochen curiously, "Sister Luochen, are you choosing which soul beast is suitable for your soul ring?"

"Well, I originally planned to take advantage of this holiday to go to the Far North and try my luck, but I didn't encounter many soul beasts, let alone suitable ones." Ling Luochen replied, "So I can only go to the Frozen Forest in a few days to hunt the soul beasts there."

"The soul beasts recorded in this book all come from the Frozen Forest. I want to see if there is a suitable soul beast as my fourth soul ring."

Yunze nodded. He only knew about the Frozen Forest from what Ling Luochen had said. It was a soul beast forest belonging to Tianshui City, one of the three cities in the northern border. It was originally a forest for wild soul beasts, but as humans became more powerful and all the top soul beasts in the Frozen Forest were hunted to extinction, the forest gradually became a soul hunting forest for humans.

Although it is located in the northern border, the Frozen Forest has never belonged to the scope of the Far North, and Yunze naturally does not care about the soul beasts from other places.

After all, the future of the Far North is still just in the conceptual stage and has not yet been formalized.

"Sister Luochen, we have been practicing together these past few days. The quality of your martial spirit should have improved a bit. This way, the absorption period of your fourth spirit ring should also be increased a lot."

Ling Luochen nodded gently, "Well, I estimate that it should have increased by about one thousand to two thousand years. Originally, I estimated that the fourth spirit ring was about five thousand to six thousand years old. Now it seems that absorbing a spirit ring of seven thousand to eight thousand years should be possible."

Having said that, Ling Luochen expressed his gratitude to Yunze from the bottom of his heart, "All of this is because of you, Xiaoze."

"Thank you."

As if he had thought of something, Ling Luochen asked curiously, "By the way, Xiaoze, I heard from my father that you are very likely from a hidden and powerful force. If possible, can you tell me what force you belong to?"

After she finished speaking, her pretty face flushed slightly, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."

"Of course, but Sister Luochen must keep it a secret." Yunze said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ling Luochen nodded repeatedly.

"The power behind me is called the Snow Sect, a hidden sect. Of course, I can't tell Sister Luochen the exact location yet, but I can promise you that when you come back from vacation, I can come and play with you."

"Xue Zong?" Ling Luochen tilted his head, having no impression of the name at all.

It seems that it is really a mysterious force.

However, after hearing Yunze's next words, Ling Luochen's little face showed a hint of reluctance.

Yes! After today, Ozawa will leave.

Although he had only known him for a few days, these few days brought Ling Luochen a completely different life.

It was as if a ray of light appeared in the originally dark life.

Yunze saw that Ling Luochen's expression was a little depressed, but he couldn't guess why she was like that. He could only gently hold Ling Luochen's little hand and comfort her silently.

"Xiao Ze." Ling Luochen raised his head and looked directly into Yun Ze's eyes. Suddenly, a bright smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "I'm really happy to meet you."

"Me too, Sister Luochen." Yunze nodded slightly.

The two just stared at each other, and time seemed to freeze at this moment.

Ling Mansion, conference room in the courtyard of the Ling family patriarch.

Several figures sat down here, the first of whom was the head of the Ling family, Ling Tianyi.

"Brother, you suddenly called us to a meeting. Do you have something to announce?" Ling Tianchen, the second son of the Ling family, is a middle-aged man with a slightly gentle appearance. He looked at Ling Tianyi who was sitting in the main seat and asked softly.

The others also looked at Ling Tianyi.

Ling Tianyi's face was still as calm as before, but there was a hint of seriousness in it.

His voice was very steady. "You all should know that a mysterious guest has come to my Ling family these past few days."

"Brother Tianyi, you are talking about Brother Xiaoze, right? What's wrong? Does your calling us here have anything to do with him?" Ling Hanyan, the only female among the group, spoke at this time.

Ling Tianyi nodded gently, "It's indeed because of him."

"Back then, Han Yun, Han Li, and Han Yan brought him back and told me some of your speculations. Now, we have an answer to Yun Ze's identity." Ling Tianyi said this and took a deep breath. "This person is the young master of a hidden sect. According to him, this sect is called the Snow Sect, hidden in the far north. But other than these two points, we don't know anything else for the time being."

"But just today, Yunze suddenly came to me and said that he wanted to cooperate with my Ling family to serve as the Xuezong's voice in the outside world."

"I called you here to ask if you are willing to cooperate with the Xue Sect?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

After a moment, Ling Tianchen finally spoke, "Brother, we don't know anything about this Snow Sect, and whether this Snow Sect actually exists has probably not been confirmed, right?"

Ling Tianyi nodded gently, "That's true, but I personally believe that even if this Snow Sect doesn't exist, there's still an extremely large and mysterious force behind Yunze."

"Just think about it, who would dare to let an eight-year-old Soul Master, who also possesses an ultimate martial soul, out? Moreover, judging from Yunze's appearance, it seems that he came to Xuanbing City just to wander around aimlessly. If he hadn't known my Ling family, if it weren't for Luo Chen, I don't think he would have had any intersection with my Ling family at all."

"And most importantly, I can confirm that there is indeed a powerful person standing behind him."

When Ling Tianyi said this, everyone was stunned.

Confirmed?

How to confirm?

Soon, Ling Tianyi revealed the answer.

"On the night Yunze moved into my Ling Mansion, a mysterious and powerful person suddenly appeared in my courtyard. Although I couldn't see his face clearly, I will never forget those golden eyes."

Ling Tianyi's tone was filled with excitement as he spoke up to this point. "You should know that when I was young, I once enrolled in the Tianhun Royal Academy. There were several deans at the Titled Douluo level in the academy, but the feeling they gave me was simply incomparable to this mysterious and powerful being!"

“Just like ants.”
