Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 255 The Fruit That Can't Be Eaten
Ignoring the undeniable beauty before him, Lin Po was momentarily lost in thought.

Indeed, as Zhang Lexuan said, his thinking and methods of doing things have always had considerable flaws.

If you pay close attention, you'll definitely notice something unusual.

Lin Po meant well, which is why he didn't reveal the risks behind it all to everyone.

However, in making this decision, he also ignored the feelings of Zhang Lexuan and the other girls, which only added to his worries.

Seeing Lin Po's guilty expression, Zhang Lexuan's heart softened instantly, and she couldn't help but secretly regret that she had gone too far.

Ignoring the overflowing spring sunshine, she quickly opened her arms and embraced Lin Po, giving him the most effective comfort in the most primitive way.

After a moment, Lin Po, having recovered his composure, leaned against Zhang Lexuan's chest and recounted his experiences over the years in their entirety.

During this time, he revealed almost all the extremely confidential information about the Spirit Realm, Douluo Star, the God Realm, Tang San, 'Yuan', and so on.

Zhang Lexuan leaned against the headboard, listening silently, her beautiful eyes filled with an indescribable tenderness as she looked down at the boy.

It wasn't until dawn that Lin Po finished recounting everything related to him.

"That's pretty much it, so I have to seize all the initiative before Tang San makes a move against Douluo Star."

"Even now, I'm not entirely confident that I can do everything at once; I can only take it one step at a time."

After finishing speaking, Lin Po let out a long sigh of relief, and a feeling of ultimate clarity instantly filled his entire body.

This was the first time he had ever told the people around him everything, except for the time travel and the system.

That feeling was indescribably exhilarating.

Then, Lin Po slightly raised his eyebrows, wanting to see Zhang Lexuan's reaction, and just happened to meet her beautiful eyes that had been looking at him.

After their eyes met for a few seconds, the woman finally felt a little shy and slowly raised her hand to cover the boy's eyes.

Then she gently parted her crimson lips.

"Little Po, would you like to hear what your older sister has to say?"

"Of course, Sister Lexuan, just say it!"

After receiving permission, Zhang Lexuan first shifted her body to make the person in her arms more comfortable before expressing her thoughts.

"Xiao Po, have you considered that our situation might not be as urgent as you think?"

"Now, we have occupied two of the four great empires, and the remaining Xingluo and Douling are not worth worrying about at all."

In fact, if it weren't for your deliberate act of allowing acquired evil soul masters to wreak havoc on the Douluo Continent, the Fire Phoenix and New Imperial Dragon soul master corps located on the border would have already attacked.

"The same goes for the other continental forces. Without Shrek Academy, they are just a disorganized mess and cannot muster any strong fighting power."

"And then there's the issue of the divine realm that you're most worried about."

At this point, Zhang Lexuan suddenly stopped speaking, which made Lin Po, who was still in complete darkness, somewhat curious.

"A little over a month ago, the city lord of Tianhai City sent a very bizarre letter via top-secret communication. It contained only eight short characters."

"The sea and sky are stained with blood, a possible disaster!"

“When I received this letter, I realized that this matter must be related to you, so I specially arranged for my great-grandfather to make a trip.”

"But the result only confirmed the authenticity of the first four characters; even my great-grandfather could not find out the last four characters."

"With no other choice, this matter can only be put aside for now, and a decision will be made when you return."

As the last word fell, the hall fell into a deathly silence.

Combined with the faint light from outside the window and the occasional bursts of laughter from the outer room, the once magnificent study hall gave off a chilling feeling.

After an unknown amount of time, the sun was high in the sky, and the warm sunlight shone through the windows, bringing some warmth to the cold hall.

Finally, Zhang Lexuan could no longer contain her worry and whispered in Lin Po's ear.

"Xiao Po."

"Sister Lexuan, what's wrong?"

"are you OK?"

"Great, I've never felt this good before! It's just that Sister Lexuan's body is so soft and comfortable that I don't want to get out of bed."

Zhang Lexuan: "."

So this little lecher was just lusting after me?! I've been worrying for nothing!
"Little Soul!!"

"Hehe~" Ten minutes later, Zhang Lexuan, dressed in a dragon robe, crossed her arms and looked at Lin Po, who stood tall and straight in front of her, with a very serious expression.

Sister: "Even if the threat from the God Realm is temporarily gone, Xiao Po, you can't indulge in pleasure! Remember that?!"

Brother: "Um... what level constitutes addiction?"

Sister: "Huh?!"

Brother: "Yes, I understand!"

Clearly, even if he were invincible, as the younger brother, he still couldn't withstand his older sister's absolute dominance.

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Zhang Lexuan finally smiled and stepped forward to straighten Lin Po's collar.

Then he delivered the final, decisive blow.

"It's good that you know. I'll arrange for someone to inform Xiaomeng. I'm sure the younger sisters won't refuse their eldest sister's request."

"Sister Lexuan, it can't be that bad, can it?"

At this moment, Lin Po truly understood the meaning of "extreme joy begets sorrow," and at the same time, his 'rebellious mentality' prompted him to make a final struggle.

Before she could finish speaking, Zhang Lexuan, in her Empress form, raised her eyebrows again, startling Lin Po once more.

"It can't be that bad, Xiao Po. Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about your own body?"

"My sister absorbed two 100,000-year soul rings and has 100,000-year soul bones all over her body, making her a Super Douluo. Even her physical strength couldn't withstand you twice."

"What if it were Xiaomeng and the others, who aren't even Soul Saints yet? What? You want their lives?! Or do you want to go straight to their stomachs?!"

The Empress's words left Lin Po speechless.

He was now only curious about one thing: who was the person who taught the Empress such special vocabulary?!
Seemingly sensing the strangeness of the person in front of her, Zhang Lexuan also realized what inappropriate words she had just said.

As her ear tips turned rosy, her voice unconsciously rose a few decibels.

"Anyway, no matter what, no means no! We have to wait until they reach the Soul Douluo level! The same goes for Ruoruo!"

Lin Po understood this arrangement perfectly.

After all, she's still a young girl who hasn't fully grown up. If something unexpected happens during the process, he'll probably regret it for the rest of his life.

But it seems there are other people here.

"What about Na'er? She should be able to manage."

"Of course not, Na'er. If it's her, then it's no problem, as long as you can handle it."

Upon hearing this, Lin Po felt as if he had just suffered the most extreme insult in the world.

What he found most unacceptable was that this humiliation was inflicted on him by his dearest sister and lover!

What do you mean, "I can handle it"?! Isn't that incredibly disrespectful?!
Do you really think this demigod's body is made of clay?!

A mere Great Silver Dragon... it seems that even a demigod-level being like him is no match for him.
No, I need to strengthen myself before I can have a better chance of avenging myself!

Lin Po suddenly regretted why he had rushed out of seclusion and back to Mingdu to find out what was going on.

Wouldn't it be better to delay for another day or two, use the enhancement points, and make myself even stronger?

At the very least, the body parts should be upgraded before it's released.

Hmm? It seems like strengthening the body doesn't necessarily require seclusion.
"Alright, alright, I still have a lot of official business to attend to. Xiao Po, go play by yourself."

The same method of chasing people away as when he was a child dispelled Lin Po's complicated thoughts, while also leaving him both amused and exasperated.

"Okay, then I'll go check on Xiaomeng and the others first."

After saying that, under Zhang Lexuan's 'impatient' gaze, Lin Po disappeared from the study.

Once her breath had completely dissipated, Empress Moon Soul could no longer maintain her dignified demeanor, and her legs gave way, causing her to slump into the chair behind her.

"Phew, thank goodness. If Xiao Po had left even a minute later, she really wouldn't have been able to hold on."

"No, I need to find someone to help share the firepower! Otherwise, I'll be ruined by Xiao Po sooner or later!"

We can't count on Xiaomeng and Xiaoxiao for the time being, and Na'er alone is enough, so that leaves only Lingxi, Luochen, and Ruoruo.”

"Huh? Ruoruo!!"

At this moment, Empress Moon Soul finally remembered the Imperial Decree Official whom she had deliberately forgotten.
