Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 37 Senior Sister, What Will You Choose? (Part 2)

"How do I choose?"

Han Ruoruo gently tapped Ling Bai on the head with a thick book, looking at him helplessly: "What kind of question is this? Senior Sister can't possibly be an evil soul master!"

"All right……"

Ling Bai smiled, but his smile was devoid of warmth. He was reading this book to find out if anyone in history had successfully removed the evil from a martial spirit.

If so, he could try to learn from it, because one shouldn't put all their eggs in one basket. As fellow evil martial souls, compared to the evil power eruption of the Death Prison Spider Emperor Rakshasa, Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Evil Fire is really insignificant. It would be troublesome if Electrolux were also helpless in the end.

"Don't laugh like that, it's too cold-hearted. You want to know what I choose? Then I'll tell you."

Han Ruoruo lightly tapped Ling Bai's head a few more times, looked directly into his eyes, and said firmly:

"If I awaken the Evil Martial Soul, it means that fate has given me the right to choose to fall into depravity, but I also have the right to refuse to fall into depravity. I will devote my whole life to fighting against the Evil Martial Soul."

As long as I haven't betrayed my own soul, even if I possess an evil martial spirit, I will always be a clean person.

"Um."

Ling Bai nodded slowly. He was also someone who did not want to fall into depravity. Otherwise, with the talent of the Death Prison Spider Emperor's blood soul, he might have already broken through level 70 by now if he had let go of killing.

"Let's go, your senior sister will treat you to dinner."

Han Ruoruo got up and put the stack of books she hadn't finished reading and Ling Bai's "The Legend of the Evil Soul Master of the Mainland" into her silver earring, which was her storage soul tool. She took a step and left Ling Bai behind. Obviously, she was a little annoyed that Ling Bai was reading this "evil book".

"Senior sister, let me treat you."

Ling Bai followed with a wry smile. He could handle the situation, and besides, Han Ruoruo was willing to take him out to eat, so she shouldn't be too angry.

As the two stepped out of the library, a cool breeze swept over them, refreshing them without being freezing.

The vast surface of Poseidon Lake shimmered under the sunlight, draped in a pale golden veil, and the waves made a captivating rhythmic sound.

Ling Bai walked beside Han Ruoruo and glanced at her. He noticed that Han Ruoruo's mood had improved, and the upward curve of her lips revealed her gentleness and warmth. She seemed to have long forgotten her dissatisfaction from before.

And that was indeed the case. Han Ruoruo simply didn't want Ling Bai to waste his time thinking about what to do if he awakened the Evil Martial Soul. She still really liked this junior brother.

Today is the happiest day for her in recent years, because Zhang Lexuan, Wu Ming, Hua Yao... all her book-reading companions have "abandoned her." It has been far too long since anyone has accompanied her to the library to read.

Although sitting alone in a historically rich library to enjoy a book is a wonderful thing, Han Ruoruo prefers the feeling of being with someone.

"Luo Chen, Luo Chen, open the door!"

Suddenly, a pleading voice came from ahead. Ling Bai and Han Ruoruo looked closely and saw a dark-skinned, burly man bending over and knocking on the door, carrying a lot of random things in his hands.

"Um?"

Ling Bai leaned back strategically and asked Han Ruoruo, "Is that Ling Luochen's residence? This brother... isn't pursuing Ling Luochen, is he?"

"You guessed right. The boy's name is Qian Fufu, the adopted son of Qian Duoduo, the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department. He fell in love with Ling Luochen at first sight and has been pursuing her for the past two years." Han Ruoruo's expression was a little strange. "But what he was carrying... how should I put it, it's quite... um..."

Han Ruoruo couldn't find the right words for a moment, so Ling Bai quietly added a sentence for her:

"That's quite an idea."

"Yes, that's a great idea," Han Ruoruo said, finding it very apt.

A bouquet of bright red roses paired with baby's breath, a rose gold soul-guided cannon, and a matching soul-guided thruster...

Ling Bai wasn't familiar with Ling Luochen and didn't quite know what the other person liked, but if you give a Shrek Academy martial soul system student a soul tool, you're probably going to get beaten up!

Ling Bai and Han Ruoruo walked openly and made no attempt to conceal their presence. Qian Fufu naturally noticed them and immediately hid the roses and soul tool behind his back, whistling and looking up at the sky, trying to cover up his actions as if he hadn't done anything.

"Junior brother, let's hurry up and go." Han Ruoruo was amused by Qian Fufu.

"OK."

Ling Bai didn't have the wicked sense to deliberately embarrass strangers, so he quickened his pace with Han Ruoruo.

After Yu Guangzhong and his companion left, Qian Fufu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly continued knocking on the door, pleading pitifully, "Luo Chen, please open the door! I specially made this soul tool for you!"

"roll!"

Ling Luochen's icy roar echoed from inside the room, and at the same time, a chill wafted through the crack in the door, instantly freezing the once vibrant roses, just like Qian Fufu's heart.

He glanced at the still-closed door, sighed deeply, and left dejectedly.

"Senior, this doesn't seem to be the way to the cafeteria."

A few minutes after passing Ling Luochen's residence, Ling Bai suddenly spoke up.

He's a freshman, but that doesn't mean he has no sense of direction!

We're almost at the edge of Poseidon Island!

"Who told you you went to the cafeteria?" Han Ruoruo asked, puzzled.

Ling Bai blinked: "Eating...not in the cafeteria?"

"Senior sister said she'd treat you to a meal, but the inner courtyard cafeteria is free, so how can I possibly pay?" Han Ruoruo poked Ling Bai with her finger. "Of course, we'll go to Shrek City!"

Ling Bai turned his head: "Shrek City? I was in too much of a rush on the way to school, and I haven't had a chance to experience this city that rivals the capital of the empire."

"I'll take you for a walk."

Han Ruoruo smiled and said, "Many students are so focused on cultivation that they never even visit Shrek City, which is so close by, until graduation. I don't want you to have any regrets."

"Then I'll have to trouble my senior sister to be my guide again."

"Hmm."

In terms of prosperity, Shrek City is second to none in the entire Douluo Continent. The city is full of merchants selling all kinds of things, and the crowds are huge.

"Crispy chicken wings, money back guarantee if you don't like them!"

"Zhang's soup dumplings have thin skins, generous fillings, and are incredibly juicy and delicious! Come and try them!"

"Candied hawthorn skewers, only one copper coin a skewer! Have a try, classmate!"

The sounds of hawking and selling filled the air, and there were various street performers at the street corners, surrounded by a large crowd of adults and children.

In front of each shop, enthusiastic clerks would try to lure customers in, showering them with flattering words.

At this moment, there are many students from the outer academy wearing various Shrek school uniforms on the street. Enjoying food during their spare time is also a kind of fun. Moreover, many merchants in Shrek City have gathered here to do business with Shrek students.

Wherever Ling Bai and Han Ruoruo passed, the Shrek Academy outer students, who were already quite remarkable in the eyes of ordinary people, made way for them, because they were wearing the blood-red school uniforms belonging to the inner academy.

In Shrek City, Inner Court students represent the top echelon.

Everyone made way for them, but Ling Bai and Han Ruoruo were not arrogant. When the students from the outer academy tentatively greeted them, they would smile and nod in return. Every student who saw their smiles would blush and be filled with excitement, looking forward to one day being admitted to the inner academy.

Along the way, they bought a lot of things, mostly snacks. Han Ruoruo kept her word and didn't let Ling Bai pay a single copper soul coin. Ling Bai initially wanted to reciprocate, but Han Ruoruo firmly held his hand down, relying on her soul power which far exceeded Ling Bai's.

After several such incidents, Ling Bai decided to stop humiliating himself and settled down to living off his senior sister.

After strolling around Shrek City for an hour and sampling many delicious snacks, the two gradually slowed down and decided to find a proper restaurant for lunch.

Little Elephant Noodle Shop.

A small restaurant caught their attention, not because of its name, but because of a table placed to the side of the restaurant entrance, on which sat a blue crystal ball.

"Azure Crystal," Ling Bai said. "It originates from the Sun and Moon Continent and is a rare metal with excellent soul power conductivity. Due to its fragility compared to other metals, it is not suitable for manufacturing offensive soul tools and is more often used to make soul power testing devices."

"Oh?"

Han Ruoruo walked over and found a line of small words printed under the crystal ball.

"This crystal ball can display your soul power in numbers, nothing more. As human beings, we should first be kind, then honest, and only then should we strive to cultivate our soul power."
