Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 16 Zhang Lexuan

Starry Sky Great Forest Mixed Zone

The commotion in the cave had subsided. Ji Lin held Zhang Lexuan, who was soaking wet, his face full of frustration and resentment.

Although he had taken full advantage of Zhang Lexuan, this was not what he wanted.

Just then, Zhang Lexuan, who was in Ji Lin's arms, frowned slightly and her eyelids trembled gently, clearly indicating that she had woken up.

But she didn't open her eyes immediately, clearly pretending to be unconscious. The current situation left her unsure how to face Ji Lin.

I decided to pretend to be dizzy first and sort out my thoughts.

Before consuming that 100,000-year-old whale glue, she actually knew about its side effects. After all, as the most outstanding inner disciple of Shrek Academy in three thousand years, she had consumed 10,000-year-old whale glue before.

Therefore, she was well aware of the side effects of whale gelatin, which was the real reason why she hesitated when Ji Lin handed her the whale gelatin.

However, the side effects of the Ten Thousand Year Whale Glue she had taken before were also very severe. She suppressed them directly with her cultivation level at the time. This time, her cultivation level was even higher; she was already a Soul Douluo. She thought that with her cultivation level, she could completely suppress any side effects.

The result was not as she had hoped. When she refined the whale glue, when the intense heat filled her body, rushed into her brain, and overwhelmed her reason, she was already mentally prepared.

Although she had no experience, she had read some books on the subject, so she knew what she would become if she were overwhelmed by the side effects of whale gel.

Although she was previously dominated by desire and her reason was clouded, once she regained her senses, she recalled everything that had happened and the conversation between Ji Lin and Chi Yuan.

Therefore, she knew very well that Ji Lin couldn't be entirely blamed for this. After all, he was trying to save her, not taking advantage of her in a despicable way; their motivations were different.

The reason she didn't wake up immediately was because she didn't know how to face Ji Lin.

Suddenly, Zhang Lexuan felt Ji Lin's hand climb up her breasts again. She could no longer hold back and slowly opened her eyes, staring straight at Ji Lin.

Ji Lin, who had just placed his hand on Zhang Lexuan's towering breasts, froze as he looked into Zhang Lexuan's clear black eyes.

"Lele, Sister Xuan, you...you're awake! Let me explain...I mean, let me explain, it's not what you think."

Seeing Ji Lin's flustered and incoherent words, Zhang Lexuan sighed and said quietly, "Take your hand away."

Upon hearing this, Ji Lin quickly withdrew his hand, his face full of embarrassment.

Zhang Lexuan climbed out of Ji Lin's arms, but as soon as she stood up, her legs felt weak, and she stumbled and almost fell after taking just one step forward.

Ji Lin quickly reached out to support him.

"Sister Lexuan, are you alright?"

Zhang Lexuan hesitated for a moment, but did not choose to push Ji Lin away directly. Instead, she turned her head away and said softly, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry. I'm going to wash up and change my clothes."

"Okay, sure."

Ji Lin quickly withdrew his hand and watched Zhang Lexuan head towards the back of a boulder.

"Turn around, don't peek."

At that moment, Zhang Lexuan's voice came from behind the boulder.

Upon hearing this, Ji Lin's face lit up with joy, and he quickly replied, "Don't worry, Sister Le Xuan, I won't peek."

Only then did Ji Lin feel relieved. He knew that Zhang Lexuan did not hate him because of this incident, after all, he had done such a terrible thing to her.

He was finally relieved. He wanted to take things further with Sister Lexuan, but he didn't want it to end before it even began.

Zhang Lexuan took out water and clothes from her storage soul tool and began to wash herself, her clothes already soaked through.

Looking down at the bruises on her prominent breasts, Zhang Lexuan thought of the vow and Beibei, and two lines of tears streamed down her face.

She didn't know how to face Beibei in the future. She was Beibei's childhood sweetheart, and she had always kept her promise to Mu En, considering herself Beibei's fiancée. The matter between Beibei and Tang Ya had already filled her with bitterness and helplessness.

Now that this has happened between her and Ji Lin, she is even more at a loss about what to do next.

After washing up and changing her clothes, Zhang Lexuan walked out of the boulder and saw the white-haired boy with his back to her. She remembered how he called her "sister" and praised her beauty when they first met, and how he descended from the sky and pulled her hand to escape when she was in danger.

She remembered how the boy had given her his precious 100,000-year spirit ring to absorb, and how he had even given her a priceless 100,000-year whale glue to ensure her safe absorption. She also remembered that joke he had made back then.

What happened in the cave was just an accident, but his kindness towards her was genuine, and she could see that.

As Le Xuan looked at the back of the white-haired boy, her eyes softened.

Then, thinking of Beibei and Tang Ya's situation, Zhang Lexuan sighed inwardly.

"Sigh! It's time to let go. Beibei has found his true love, and so have I... It seems I have to break my promise to Elder Mu. I should go back and apologize to him!"

Having figured things out, Zhang Lexuan calmed herself down and transformed back into the beautiful and aloof senior sister of the inner courtyard.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Ji Lin knew that Zhang Lexuan had come out, and quickly turned around and called out, "Sister Lexuan."

Looking at Zhang Lexuan in front of him, dressed in white like snow, with black hair like a waterfall cascading over her fragrant shoulders, beautiful and aloof, as beautiful as the bright moon in the sky.

Ji Lin was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Ji Lin's appearance, Zhang Lexuan smiled gently.

"What are you looking at? We should go out now. Her Majesty Chi Yuan must have been waiting for a long time."

"Oh right, let's hurry up, Teacher Chi Yuan is still waiting for us."

Ji Lin came to his senses and saw that Zhang Lexuan didn't mention what had happened before. The smile on her face showed that she wasn't angry with him. He breathed a sigh of relief and wisely stopped bringing up the matter. He and Zhang Lexuan headed out of the cave.

Hearing footsteps behind her, Chi Yuan, who was guarding the cave entrance, turned around and saw two people walking towards her side by side. The two looked normal, chatting and laughing, as if nothing had happened. Chi Yuan was full of doubt and confusion.

She thought Ji Lin was going to get a beating, or that Zhang Lexuan would ignore Ji Lin, but things turned out to be very different.

"Could what the book says be wrong? Why is it different from what the book says?"

Seeing the puzzled look on Chi Yuan's face, Ji Lin quickly gave her a wink, then, fearing that Chi Yuan would bring up what had just happened, hurriedly asked, "Teacher Chi Yuan, is the Silver Moon Flood Dragon Emperor still alive? Is Sister Le Xuan already able to absorb a 100,000-year soul ring?"

Seeing Ji Lin's expression, Chi Yuan suddenly understood and nodded without making a sound.

"I used my soul power to stabilize its injuries, and it is still alive for the time being."

Then, Chi Yuan used her mental power to examine Zhang Lexuan's body again before saying, "Her physical fitness has met the standards, and her mental power is also very strong. She should have no problem absorbing the soul ring of this Silver Moon Flood Dragon King."

Zhang Lexuan witnessed Ji Lin and Chi Yuan's supposedly secret conversation. While she found it amusing, she also breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Chi Yuan would bring up what had just happened, and if she did, the situation would become incredibly awkward.

"That's good, Sister Lexuan. I'll leave the rest to you. Teacher Chiyuan and I will protect you."
