Douluo Continent: My name is Yang Jian, and I achieved sainthood through my physical body.

Chapter 56 Meng Yiran

Breakfast was simple: white porridge with side dishes.

Yang Jian ate quietly, and Zhu Zhuqing was also very quiet.

Ning Rongrong sat opposite, stirring her chopsticks in her bowl, glancing at Yang Jian every now and then, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

After finishing the last bite of porridge, Yang Jian put down his chopsticks and began to unleash his spiritual power.

Shrek and his group have left Star Dou Town and set off towards the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Zhu Zhuqing, it's time to go."

Yang Jian stood up.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing also stood up.

Ning Rongrong quickly put down her chopsticks and bowl: "Where are we going? I'm going too!"

Yang Jian glanced at her: "You'll only be a hindrance if you go."

Ning Rongrong's face flushed red instantly.

"I don't care! I'm going to stay with you guys! Don't even think about getting rid of me!"

A hint of annoyance flashed in Yang Jian's eyes.

He didn't say anything more, reached out and grabbed Zhu Zhuqing's arm, and in a flash, he disappeared from the spot.

It wasn't teleportation, but rather because the speed was too fast.

Ning Rongrong only felt a blur before her eyes, and Yang Jian and Zhu Zhuqing disappeared.

She stood there stunned for a long time before she came to her senses.

"Yang Jian! You bastard!"

The sound echoed in the empty breakfast stall, but no one responded.

Outside Star Town.

Yang Jian released Zhu Zhuqing's arm and slowly walked towards the Star Dou Great Forest.

His mental energy was constantly focused on Tang San and Xiao Wu.

Zhu Zhuqing followed behind, remained silent for a while, and finally couldn't help but speak.

"What are we going to do?"

"I will acquire my fifth spirit ring." Yang Jian said without turning around.

Zhu Zhuqing simply said "oh" and didn't ask any further questions.

But a strange light flickered in his eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, he called out again.

"Yang Jian".

"Um?

""

"I—" Zhu Zhuqing bit her lip, "I've been following you for the past few days, and you've never taught me how to become stronger."

.

Yang Jian stopped and turned around to look at her.

Zhu Zhuqing's gaze darted away for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.

She looked at Yang Jian, simply waiting quietly for his reply.

Do you think you made the wrong choice?

Zhu Zhuqing opened her mouth, but no words came out.

It is obviously the default.

"It's not the right time yet." Yang Jian turned around and continued walking forward. "Don't worry, I will keep my promise. If you don't believe me, you can leave now."

Actually, Yang Jian is not yet sure how to make Zhu Zhuqing stronger.

The best way would naturally be to teach Zhu Zhuqing the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, but that's not realistic, as his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing hasn't reached that level yet.

However, perhaps we can create another martial art based on the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts.

This still needs to be tested.

Besides that, there is another way.

The task is to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, find the Narcissus Jade Bone that Zhu Zhuqing consumed in the original story, and give it to Zhu Zhuqing to consume.

We'll see when the time comes, no rush.

'

Zhu Zhuqing stood there, watching Yang Jian's retreating figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

leave?

Where can she go now?

Shrek can't go back.

The same applies to the Star Luo Empire.

Now, he has no choice but to continue following Yang Jian.

"I trust you."

Zhu Zhuqing followed, her voice very soft.

Yang Jian didn't turn around, but the smile on his lips deepened slightly.

Zhu Zhuqing walked behind him, her gaze falling on his broad shoulders. She seemed to be thinking of something, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

Perhaps, things would be different if I truly became his woman.

After entering the Star Dou Great Forest, Yang Jian felt as if he were taking a stroll.

Take your time, moving at your own pace.

He even had the leisure to hunt a soft-boned rabbit, then skinned and gutted it by the stream, and roasted it over a fire.

Zhu Zhuqing sat on a rock nearby, her mind filled with doubt.

Yang Jian had been in the Star Dou Great Forest for a while now, and during that time, he hadn't looked for any soul beasts at all.

She felt that Yang Jian didn't seem to be there to hunt for spirit rings, but rather to be there for tourism.

"alright."

Yang Jian handed her the roasted soft-boned rabbit.

Zhu Zhuqing took it and took a bite.

The meat is tender, juicy, and has a subtle sweetness.

delicious.

Yang Jian also took a bite of the soft-boned rabbit in his hand, and sighed inwardly, it was a pity that there was no seasoning like in his previous life, otherwise it would have been even more delicious.

After finishing the soft-boned rabbit, Yang Jian casually drank a few mouthfuls of stream water and continued on his way with Zhu Zhuqing.

Not long after they started walking, they heard a rustling sound ahead.

A giant snake darted out of the bushes.

Its body is as thick as a bucket and over three meters long, covered in emerald green scales, and has a bright red, rooster-like comb on its head.

Seemingly being chased, it fled in a panic, running right into Yang Jian.

A thousand-year-old crested serpent with a phoenix tail.

Yang Jian's eyes lit up immediately.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be Oscar's third spirit ring.

What else is there to say?

He stepped forward and punched the crested serpent in its vital spot.

"Bang!"

The giant snake's body stiffened abruptly, then collapsed limply to the ground, too exhausted to even struggle.

Yang Jian clapped his hands, stood still, and waited quietly.

really.

Soon, the two men rushed out of the woods.

Leading the way was an old woman with a full head of silver hair that was neatly combed. Her face was covered with wrinkles, but her eyes were exceptionally sharp.

She wore a dark robe and held a snake bone cane, exuding a chilling aura.

Leading the pack was a young girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a pretty face and a touch of spoiled arrogance in her eyes.

She wore a light blue dress with a silver belt around her waist. As she ran, the hem of her dress swayed gently, giving her a graceful and lively appearance.

Snake Granny, Meng Yiran.

Yang Jian easily guessed the identities of the two people.

Snake Granny approached and narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the dying Phoenix-tailed Crested Snake lying at Yang Jian's feet.

"Young friend," her voice was slightly hoarse, "this Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent is a spirit beast that my granddaughter has her eye on. I just severely injured it and chased it all the way here."

She didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was quite clear.

They wanted Yang Jian to leave behind this crested snake with a phoenix tail.

"I desperately need this spirit ring, could you—"

At this moment, Meng Yiran also spoke up.

Her voice was much gentler than that of the Snake Woman.

In fact, given her original personality, she would never have been so amiable; she would have been bossy and ordered Yang Jian to get lost long ago.

However, looking at Yang Jian's unbelievably handsome appearance, she subconsciously restrained her temper. Yang Jian nodded slightly: "Then come over and kill it to absorb its soul ring."

He never intended to possess the crested snake.

The thousand-year soul ring was useless to him, so he might as well give it to Meng Yiran as a favor.

After six years of reflection.

He has changed from a child who had little ambition.

He became a young man with ideals.

He did not want to see the future of Douluo Continent turned into chaos by Bibi Dong.

Therefore, it is essential to gain more power and cultivate good relations with certain forces.

Although the families of Dragon Lord and Snake Lady are not considered particularly powerful, if the two of them were to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they could barely be considered to have the combat power of a Title Douluo.

They are worth courting.
