Douluo Continent: A Fallen Immortal Descends to Earth, Slaying Gods with a Drunken Sword

Chapter 10: Separation, Arrival at the Heavenly Dou Imperial City, Zhu Zhuqing Encounters Ning Rongrong
Silent all night.

The next morning.

Li Zhexian and Zhu Zhuqing left the Star Dou Great Forest and walked on the official road to the Heaven Dou Empire.

About half an hour later.

On a fork in the road.

The two were about to part ways.

Zhu Zhuqing's destination was Shrek Academy, located in a small village called Soto City within the Barak Kingdom, which was under the jurisdiction of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Li Zhexian was going to the Heavenly Dou Imperial City.

he thought.

Fine wines are available in bustling areas.

"Sister Zhuqing, have a safe journey."

Li Zhexian smiled and bid farewell to Zhu Zhuqing.

He is the same age as Zhu Zhuqing, maybe a few months older.

Calling her "Sister Zhuqing" is more like a playful and affectionate nickname.

Zhu Zhuqing initially resisted, but now she's gotten used to it.

Looking at the young man in tattered white clothes, yet still exuding a dashing and unrestrained air, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly said:
"Li Zhexian, you say purple has more charm, don't you think?"

"Ok?"

Li Zhexian looked puzzled.

Why are you suddenly bringing this up?

When did he say that...?

Oh, when he first met Zhu Zhuqing, he asked her why her first spirit ring was purple.

He made up a story, saying, "Because purple has a lot of charm."

I never imagined it was just a casual remark.

Zhu Zhuqing actually remembered it.

Li Zhexian was about to say, "I was just making this up, Sister Zhuqing, you don't need to worry about it."

But Zhu Zhuqing continued:
"Next time we meet, I'll wear purple clothes for you."

"Goodbye... farewell!"

Say it.

He didn't even look at Li Zhexian's reaction.

She turned around and hurried away as if fleeing.

She probably walked too fast, because she twisted her ankle.

Li Zhexian, with his exceptionally sharp eyesight, noticed that Zhu Zhuqing's fair and delicate swan-like neck had turned red.

"Farewell, Sister Zhuqing."

Li Zhexian raised the corners of his lips, humming a little tune as he walked down another path.

He was not sentimental about parting.

Because he knows.

We'll meet again if fate allows.

The Starry Sky Forest is about 800 kilometers away from Tiandou City.

The route passes through the province of Fasno, the city of Barumbu, and the Sunset Forest.

In Bolan City, the city closest to the Starry Sky Forest.

Li Zhexian took out the hides and bones of the soul beasts he had hunted, exchanged them for a lot of gold soul coins, bought a white-maned steed, and embarked on his journey.

We traveled and played along the way.

Half a month later, Tiandou City finally came into view.

The sun was blazing.

A figure riding a white horse appeared at the end of the official road.

"Xu~~"

Li Zhexian reined in the white horse, its hooves kicking up clouds of dust.

He took a swig of wine, casually wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the majestic city hundreds of meters away, which lay like a giant beast on the horizon.

Even if they are hundreds of meters apart.

Yet Li Zhexian could still see that the sunlight spread like gold foil across the vermilion city walls, and the gilded corners of the walls were reflected in the moat, making it extremely beautiful and magnificent.

Anyone who sees it will exclaim, "What a prosperous city!"

Li Zhexian murmured:

"I hope there will be a nice bar in the Heavenly Battle Imperial City that catches my eye."

Along the way.

He tasted the wines of every city along the way.

Unfortunately, no wine was worthy of being poured into his Clear Spring Wine Pot.

Leading a white-maned horse.

Li Zhexian arrived at the foot of the city wall.

It's worth mentioning that there's an entrance fee to enter the Imperial City.

However, after Li Zhexian revealed his level 22 soul power aura, the guards immediately and respectfully escorted him into the city.

Level 22 soul power is nothing.

But it's different when you're so young.

Li Zhexian smiled and waved to the enthusiastic guards, feeling a little regretful.

"Don't novels always say that you'll be looked down upon and given trouble when you enter the city gates?"

"How come mine is different?"

With a joking mindset.

Li Zhexian entered Tiandou City. The moment he stepped inside...

The noise and bustle entered his eyes.

The ginkgo trees planted on both sides of Zhuque Avenue shed their golden leaves in a soft rustling sound.

Pedestrians stopped to haggle in front of various shops on both sides of the street.

Not far away, the steam rising from teahouses and noodle shops enveloped the area.

On the other side, the storyteller in the blue robe slammed down his gavel, cupped his hands, and smiled as he asked the guests for tips.

Beneath the stone bridge, a painted boat slowly glides by, with wealthy young men drinking and making merry.

"Good place!"

As Li Bai walked and looked around, his mood became increasingly pleasant.

soon.

He found the best restaurant in the Heavenly Dou Imperial City—Shanxiangfang.

It is said that this is a renowned top-tier restaurant in the capital of Tiandou, where all kinds of delicacies are available.

"Hey, you don't look like this young master!"

When the waiter saw Li Zhexian from afar, he immediately draped a white cloth over his shoulder and greeted him with a big smile.

"Just give the horse to me, I'll make sure it's well-fed."

The waiter took the reins and handed them to the servant standing nearby.

Then, he turned slightly to the side and led the way for Li Zhexian.

"Young master, you look unfamiliar with this place. Would you like me to show you around?"

Li Zhexian looked around the restaurant with a smile.

Inside, the carved beams and painted rafters, the artificial hills and flowing water, were truly exquisite to the extreme.

"Hmm, you're from the outer city. Bring out all your local specialties, and also get me two jugs of your best and strongest liquor."

"Okay!"

The waiter did not look down on the boy because of his clothes.

I've been in this line of work for many years.

I've met countless people who have come and gone.

The boy was dressed in rags.

But with her free-spirited demeanor and confident eyes, she must be a person of great inner beauty and talent.

"Would you prefer a private room or the main hall, young master?"

"The lobby bar is more lively."

"Okay!"

The waiter shouted a greeting to Li Zhexian and was about to leave.

"Wait."

Li Zhexian took a gold soul coin from his pocket and placed it in the waiter's hand.

The waiter's eyes lit up, and he bent down to say:
"Thank you, Master!"

Just as Li Zhexian arrived at the Heavenly Dou Imperial City.

the other side.

Zhu Zhuqing finally arrived at Shrek Academy.

It's called an academy, but it's actually located in a small village with only about a hundred households.

The village is surrounded by a fence.

A few people gathered in twos and threes at the village entrance.

Zhu Zhuqing's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed across her cold face.

Isn't Shrek Academy a bit too rudimentary?

There appears to be a riot ahead.

A teenager paid ten gold soul coins to register, but was told that he did not meet the requirements and that the registration fee would not be refunded.

The boy and his father protested angrily.

At this time.

An older, blond-haired boy stepped forward and released two soul rings that were hundreds of years old and one that were thousands of years old.

Such a young age and such a high level of spirit ring configuration caused the people in line to gasp in amazement.

The surging soul power exerted pressure on the father and son, forcing them to submit.

A hint of disgust flashed deep in Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes amidst the crowd.

This is the kind of person who bullies the weak.

Compared to Li Bai, it's like heaven and earth.

She didn't even glance at the blond boy.

His gaze casually swept over the crowd in line.

Ahead of her stood a black-haired boy and a girl with a scorpion braid.

And at this time.

A beautiful young woman in a white dress and with short hair is taking a test.

The beautiful young girl seemed to have caught the old man's attention.

"Do your family know you're here?"

The girl in the white dress had a clear and pleasant voice.

"Everyone says that education should be provided to all without discrimination. As long as I meet the requirements, you have no reason not to accept me, right?"
