Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 350 The moonlight is hazy tonight!

After settling into their accommodations, everyone returned to their rooms to rest. Having traveled day and night from Shrek Academy to Mingdu, it was impossible not to be tired.

As night fell and everyone rested in their rooms, Zhu Ziyang quietly left the Mingyue Hotel under Ma Xiaotao's watchful eye.

No one noticed his actions. He concealed his tracks within the vast city of Mingdu, and when he reappeared, he was near an ordinary inn in the outer city of Mingdu.

Zhu Ziyang glanced at the hotel's name: Xiyue Hotel. That's it, this is the one.

He smiled slightly, and with a thought, he appeared in a room on the top floor of the Xiyue Hotel in a flash of light.

"Who?"

The people inside the room immediately noticed Zhu Ziyang's appearance. A wary shout came from inside, followed by a bluish-green wind blade.

"Elder Song, don't be nervous, it's me." Zhu Ziyang casually shattered the incoming wind blade, chuckled, and said.

"Ziyang!" Two excited voices rang out, one clear and gentle, the other old and kind. The people in the room were none other than Zhang Lexuan and Old Song.

As soon as Zhu Ziyang regained his footing, Zhang Lexuan rushed up excitedly, wanting to hug him. However, she seemed to remember something and paused for a moment, only a gentle smile remaining on her face.

Facing the hesitant Zhang Lexuan, Zhu Ziyang was much more carefree. He pulled her into his arms and whispered, "Sister Lexuan, it's been a long time!"

"Hmm! Long time no see, Ziyang!" Zhang Lexuan was startled by Zhu Ziyang's actions and subconsciously looked back. Seeing that Old Song's expression was the same as before, she hugged Zhu Ziyang with relief and whispered.

Looking at the two young people embracing each other, Old Master Song's face remained calm, but she couldn't help but sigh inwardly. She was worried about her disciple and also felt helpless about Zhu Ziyang's infatuation.

After a long while, Zhu Ziyang and Zhang Lexuan finally separated. He showed no embarrassment and smiled as he said to Old Song, "Old Song, it's been a long time. You've worked hard this past year."

"Hehe." Old Song chuckled and waved his hand, saying, "It's not hard work. It's mainly Le Xuan who's doing the work. I'm just playing a supporting role."

"You're too modest," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile. "You should have met up with Senior Sister and the others by now, right?"

"Yes!" Upon hearing Zhu Ziyang's words, Zhang Lexuan and Elder Song immediately became serious. Zhang Lexuan said, "We heard from Dean Xian that the academy plans to cooperate with the people of the Heavenly Soul and Star Luo Empires to assassinate Xu Tianran, is that right?"

"That's right," Zhu Ziyang nodded and said, "That's why I asked you to come here."

The two empires planned to assassinate, or at least seriously injure, Xu Tianran in order to delay the war. However, we all know that this is nothing more than drinking poison to quench thirst.

Of course, this has nothing to do with us. My idea and the academy's idea is to directly and cleanly kill Xu Tianran and the other direct descendants of the Sun Pulse, hehe.

At this point, Zhu Ziyang suddenly laughed.

"Speaking of which, we should thank Xu Tianran. This guy is indeed ruthless. He has imprisoned almost all the direct descendants of the Sun Pulse in the palace, saving us a lot of trouble. I guess he plans to get rid of them all after he ascends the throne."

"Hehe, I've gone off-topic. After we deal with Xu Tianran and the other members of the Sun Pulse, the upper echelons of the Sun Moon Empire will inevitably experience a major upheaval. I estimate they won't be able to find a suitable heir to the throne in the short term. That will be your opportunity, Sister Lexuan."

Zhu Ziyang spoke at length, and Zhang Lexuan and Old Song listened attentively, occasionally showing signs of deep thought.

"Ziyang, we understand what you mean," Zhang Lexuan said. "We'll go back and prepare now."

"No rush," Zhu Ziyang said, stopping Zhang Lexuan and Old Song as they got up to leave. "There's still some time before the assassination is carried out. The exact time is still undetermined. We'll make a decision after I contact the people from Tianhun and Xingluo. You can leave once the time is confirmed. You can stay in Mingdu for a while longer."

"Oh, that's fine then." Zhang Lexuan and Old Song exchanged a glance, and then Old Song said with a smile, "Alright, you two young people chat, I'm going to rest now, ha~ I'm getting old, I get sleepy easily!"

With a cryptic smile on his face, Old Song turned and left the room, leaving Zhu Ziyang and Zhang Lexuan alone.

After Old Song left, the atmosphere in the room became somewhat ambiguous. Zhu Ziyang sat down next to Zhang Lexuan and said with a light laugh, "Sister Lexuan, how's it going? Ready to be an empress?"

"Sigh~ So what if we didn't do well?" Zhang Lexuan sighed, looking at Zhu Ziyang with a hint of resentment, and said, "Everyone has put in so much effort for this plan, are we just going to give up because I wasn't prepared?"

"I'm sorry you had to go through all this, Sister Lexuan!" Upon hearing this, Zhu Ziyang felt guilty and pulled Zhang Lexuan into his arms, saying this.

"Are you pitying me?" Zhang Lexuan looked up at Zhu Ziyang, her red lips slightly pursed, her pretty face slightly flushed, and a faint smile on her face as she spoke.

To be honest, this was the first time Zhu Ziyang had ever seen Zhang Lexuan like this, so he was completely powerless to resist and fell for her.

Zhu Ziyang lowered his head and bit the beauty's lips, one taking and the other giving.

Zhang Lexuan's eyes were alluring, her face flushed, and her hands rested on Zhu Ziyang's chest. Her lips brushed against his ear, and she whispered in a sweet, fragrant breath, "Ziyang..."

Without hesitation, Zhu Ziyang immediately pinned Zhang Lexuan down.

Zhang Lexuan looked at Zhu Ziyang with deep affection and whispered, "Ziyang, I want to be a mother..."

For a moment, the room was filled with the warmth of spring, while the night outside was hazy, with only the silver moon in the sky still shining brightly, as soft as a beautiful woman's veil.

-

The next day, Zhu Ziyang came out of his bedroom. Coincidentally, Ma Xiaotao also came out of her room. When she saw Zhu Ziyang, a look of embarrassment and annoyance immediately rose on her pretty face. She turned her head away with a soft snort, expressing her dissatisfaction to Zhu Ziyang.

"Haha~" Zhu Ziyang scratched the back of his head awkwardly. When he came back, Ma Xiaotao was fast asleep on his bed. Unable to get satisfaction from Zhang Lexuan, he didn't hesitate to sneak up on Ma Xiaotao.

A girl's sense of smell can be very sensitive at times. Ma Xiaotao could smell the strong feminine fragrance emanating from Zhu Ziyang without any surprise. She was certain that the fragrance did not belong to any of Jiang Nannan, Qian Lingyi, or Wu Huan'er, yet it was so familiar.

So, under Ma Xiaotao's questioning, Zhu Ziyang had no choice but to tell her about Zhang Lexuan. Then Ma Xiaotao got upset, not because Zhu Ziyang had a relationship with Zhang Lexuan, but because Zhu Ziyang hadn't taken a shower before coming back!

The God of Fire Douluo felt extremely embarrassed!

Skipping over the morning's incident, during the day, people from Xingluo Royal Academy and Tianhun Di'ao Academy arrived at Mingyue Hotel one after another, and they immediately sent people to contact the Shrek Academy team.

Still in Haixi, heading to Dunhuang tomorrow.
