Douluo Continent: Saving Zhang Lexuan at the Start

Chapter 110 Crimson Jade Bed, Double Moon's Guidance

For a moment, Ye Ying felt a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry, Sister Xuanxuan, I was just lost in thought."

When she noticed the massive stone slab behind Ye Ying, measuring four meters wide and five meters long, which she had acquired from a bandit's den over a year ago, she couldn't help but frown slightly. "Could this be the surprise you were talking about?"

Ye Ying gently grasped Zhang Lexuan's delicate hand and said with a smile, "Of course, do you know about the Crimson Spirit Warm Jade!"

"Of course, that thing isn't cheap. A kilogram of that gem costs nearly 10,000 gold soul coins. It can be used to inscribe core formations below level six and can also withstand the extreme cold of the far north. Wait, you mean—"

Ye Ying revealed a pair of porcelain-white teeth. Qing Yao, ranked eighteenth on the carving knife list, casually made a stroke, revealing a gentle aura, and a touch of crimson caught the eye.

Even Zhang Lexuan, the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, who had never worried about money since childhood, was extremely shocked.

This piece is so large, all made of Crimson Spirit Warm Jade, it must weigh at least seven or eight tons. Just thinking about the price is quite shocking.

With her jade-like hand gently stroking the Crimson Spirit Warm Jade, Zhang Lexuan's heart gradually calmed down. "Such a large piece of Crimson Spirit Warm Jade is worth about ten thousand level-five soul guide cores. It is indeed a windfall."

However, Ye Ying shook her head. "Who said it was going to be used to make money? I was planning to cut it out. Longyue Mountain is quite cold in winter, and this Crimson Spirit Warm Jade is perfect for use as a bed board."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan's expression froze for a moment. "Brother Ying, are you serious?"

"Of course, since I'm not short of money, I'll save the good stuff for my family."

Ye Ying tiptoed and gently pressed her forehead against Zhang Lexuan's, their noses lightly touching. A blush flashed across Zhang Lexuan's beautiful face.

Although she felt a little ashamed, she did not run away.

Ye Ying knew his limits; his sister Xuanxuan was still young, and he himself was even younger, so being too affectionate wasn't appropriate.

With Zhang Lexuan's help, Ye Ying, relying on Qingyao and Xuelan's sharpness, quickly completed the cutting of the Crimson Spirit Warm Jade.

Ye Ying originally planned to polish it herself, but she happened to see Ye Zhenting and Ye Qiulong passing by the door. A thought flashed through Ye Ying's mind, and she greeted Ye Zhenting and his son.

Ye Zhenting was in a great mood after breaking through to level 98 using a ten-thousand-year-old immortal herb, especially when he saw Ye Ying; he was overjoyed.

"Ying'er, what are you and Xiao Lexuan doing here? Aren't you planning to go back to Shrek Academy?"

Hearing her father's question, Ye Ying felt disdain. It was just a year's leave, wasn't it?

Huo Huo next door hasn't been to school for two years, but he still goes to school as usual and even goes straight into the inner courtyard.

Of course, Ye Ying couldn't say that, since he still had to consider the reputation of Shrek Academy as the number one academy in the world.

Immediately, Ye Ying's face fell, and she said in a somewhat somber voice, "Grandpa, have you forgotten that Sister Xuanxuan's soul ring is still undetermined?"

Ye Zhenting's expression turned somewhat awkward. He had been so focused on breaking through his limits these past few days that he had indeed forgotten about it.

"Alright then, Qiulong, you go with us. We can deal with that Chongyuan White Rhinoceros that's entrenched on the Sixth Peak."

Ye Qiulong nodded. "Yes, Father! Ying'er, Lexuan, come with me!"

Ye Ying nodded. "Alright, Grandpa, could you please remember to clean those jade pieces for me?"

"Alright, you guys go ahead and get your spirit rings. Remember to come back soon after you've obtained them!"

Ye Zhenting didn't take it seriously. It was just a few pieces of jade; he could easily get rid of them by sending a clansman.

In his view, the jade that Ye Ying sold was nothing more than a trinket to coax a young girl like Zhang Lexuan; it was something he had already played with before.

After the three uncles and nephews left, Old Master Ye Zhenting also came to the small courtyard that had been allocated to Ye Ying not long ago.

That's right. This time when he came back, Ye Ying was kicked out of the house by Yu Xuehua. The reason was very straightforward: she was afraid that his close relationship with Zhang Lexuan would corrupt his second brother, Ye Yuyu!

Although somewhat reluctant, Ye Ying and Zhang Lexuan still moved out.

When Ye Zhenting saw the bed boards that had been cut and casually placed, faintly emitting a red glow, he knew he had been tricked by this bastard!

But there was nothing he could do about it; after all, Crimson Spirit Warm Jade was still jade, and he naturally understood its value and uses.

Because he understood the value of nearly ten tons of Crimson Spirit Warm Jade, which meant that the fewer people who knew about it, the better, he could only do it himself.

He casually picked up a piece of sandpaper from the side and started sanding, muttering to himself, "You little rascal, just like your father, the older you get, the more infuriating you become—"

Led by Ye Qiulong, Ye Ying and Zhang Lexuan arrived at the sixth peak of the Longyue Mountain Range, which is also the peak with the most and strongest soul beasts within the Ye family's territory.

"The white rhinoceros on the mountain has 30,000 years of cultivation. It was originally the fifth soul ring that the old man prepared for you, but you two actually encountered that incident. Now it can only be given to Xiao Lexuan."

Ye Qiulong, who is usually very composed in front of Ye Zhenting, was somewhat teasing at this moment. After all, teasing his nephew Ye Ying was one of his few hobbies.

But Ye Ying was already immune to such vulgar tactics.

Led by Ye Qiulong and other peak level 89 Soul Douluos, they arrived at the summit of the sixth peak of the Longyue Mountain Range in less than half an hour.

"The Chongyuan White Rhinoceros is a soul beast that prefers shady environments. It usually lives on the shady side of mountains. If we search around, we're sure we'll find it."

Ye Qiulong spoke calmly, not taking it to heart. It was just a 30,000-year-old soul beast, nothing to worry about.

The sixth peak was also largely undeveloped. Along the way, they encountered many soul beasts, but none of them dared to cause trouble.

This is quite normal. Even soul beasts that are less than ten thousand years old and have not yet developed intelligence still have the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm.

Ye Qiulong's aura as a peak Soul Douluo was such that, in the eyes of the other Soul Beasts, he was a high-level Soul Beast of at least 80,000 or 90,000 years old, and they naturally avoided him like the plague.

As they approached a stream, they finally encountered their main prey: a white, two-horned giant rhinoceros that was over three meters tall and seven or eight meters long.

Ye Qiulong was also itching to fight, so he activated his Martial Soul and sent out a silver-white arrow that suddenly multiplied into more than a dozen arrows in mid-air, forming a circle that surrounded the Chongyuan White Rhinoceros.

A dozen arrows, aimed from both ends, quickly formed a trapping array—Ye Qiulong's fifth soul skill: Cage of Arrows.

The trapped white rhinoceros could not escape no matter what it did, and was soon tormented to the point of near death by Ye Qiulong.

Zhang Lexuan, wielding a dagger, plunged it into the head of the Chongyuan White Rhinoceros. The moment the black soul ring appeared, Ye Ying breathed a sigh of relief; this tumultuous soul hunt was finally over.

An hour later, Ye Ying, who was standing guard beside Zhang Lexuan, didn't notice that her body suddenly floated up uncontrollably.

Ye Ying subconsciously looked to her side and met Zhang Lexuan's cunning and beautiful eyes.

After Ye Ying landed gently, Zhang Lexuan said with a smile, "How was it, Brother Ying? My new soul skill is called 'Replenishing the Moon,' isn't it pretty fun?"

Ye Ying didn't know what to say, because he had never even heard of a soul skill that controlled gravity!
