I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Let's return to Xu Xingyu's side.

After announcing the rewards Xu Xingyu received, amidst the envious and jealous gazes of everyone, she was personally escorted by the senior sister of the inner courtyard into the Sea God Pavilion, a place that countless people dreamed of.

Looking at the Sea God Pavilion, Xu Xingyu couldn't help but think to herself, "I didn't look at it closely last time, but won't digging out the Sea God Pavilion directly inside the Golden Ancient Tree cause any damage? How much pain must the Golden Ancient Tree have been in when it was cut!"

It's no wonder Xu Xingyu would have such thoughts. After all, the Golden Tree is a living thing, and forcibly digging out human flesh without permission is not a very ethical thing to do there.

However, since the Golden Tree is a plant, not many people pay special attention to the feelings of this child of nature.

Zhang Lexuan, who was standing to the side, chuckled as she watched Xu Xingyu looking around, and said, "Are you very curious about the origin of this golden ancient tree?"

Xu Xingyu, showing no mercy, replied, "I have no interest in knowing these things."

Hearing this, Zhang Lexuan wasn't very angry. It seemed she simply saw his actions as a child being stubborn. The biggest evidence of this was that she started introducing the origins of the Golden Ancient Tree and the Sea God Pavilion on her own.

Overall, the content is not much different from what Xu Xingyu watched when she was on Blue Star, except for some unnecessary details.

After an unknown period of time, Zhang Lexuan stopped talking about the Sea God Pavilion and instead started asking Xu Xingyu about his personal hobbies, what kind of girls he liked, and other gossipy topics typical of young girls.

How come Zhang Lexuan is so different from the Xu Xingyu I remembered? What kind of gossipy girl is she?!?

If Xu Xingyu hadn't already known that the other person was devoted to one person, he might have mistakenly thought that the other person had feelings for him!

!

According to the original description in the novel, Zhang Lexuan should be mature, steady, understanding, and unconcerned with trivial matters, but she is also a bit stubborn and has a strong attitude of not being overshadowed by men.

Instead of this talkative, gossipy woman, right?!

What Xu Xingyu didn't know was that Zhang Lexuan's attitude towards him was mainly to help her best friend Ma Xiaotao make a vetting of her and to find out her preferences.

Judging from the tenderness in Ma Xiaotao's eyes when she looked at him before, Ma Xiaotao definitely had some feelings for this junior.

However, this junior seems to be quite a womanizer, as he has quite a few girls around him.

Zhang Lexuan was a little afraid that Ma Xiaotao would lose control of the other party and end up in a position similar to her own, like a defeated dog.

You know, over the past few years, Zhang Lexuan has been like a worried old mother, constantly fretting about her best friends' future partners.

She was more worried about Ma Xiaotao, a junior, because of her martial spirit, Ma Xiaotao had an extremely volatile personality. Even if some boys were willing to befriend her, none of them had any romantic feelings for her.

If things continue like this, Ma Xiaotao will sooner or later have the same title as Wu Ming, another "Golden Crow Leftover Woman" in the inner courtyard!

She's almost thirty, and because of her fierce and violent temper, Wu Ming still hasn't found someone she likes.

Even if someone is interested, they will be too afraid of her volatile temper to refuse Wu Ming outright and then quickly run away.

Zhang Lexuan didn't want Ma Xiaotao, such an outstanding junior, to end up like Wu Ming, unwanted by everyone!

Now that Ma Xiaotao has finally started to take an interest in someone, as Du Fei's good friend, she naturally has to observe the other person carefully to make sure that he is someone Ma Xiaotao can rely on.

Overall, Zhang Lexuan's initial impression of Xu Xingyu was quite good. Despite being a minor, she possessed a calm judgment that rivaled that of adults, giving her a mature and reliable impression.

This can be seen from the fact that Xu Xingyu was able to persuade Ma Xiaotao not to act impulsively during that great battle and quickly devise a plan that could turn the tide of the battle.

Even so, he still sometimes acts a bit childish, but considering that the other person is only around eleven or twelve years old, such behavior is quite normal.

Zhang Lexuan's only complaint was Xu Xingyu's handling of relationships. After all, under Shrek's long-term education, Zhang Lexuan was a staunch advocate of monogamy.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been willing to spend her whole life alone for someone who didn't love her.

However, even if Zhang Lexuan wanted to say something about the other person in this regard, she couldn't say anything.

Xu Xingyu had only studied at Shrek Academy for a year, so she didn't feel a strong sense of belonging to Shrek Academy and therefore didn't particularly agree with Shrek's educational policies.

In the eyes of the people of Douluo Continent, polygamy is still a very common phenomenon among Soul Masters. After all, Soul Masters attach great importance to the inheritance of bloodlines, so many large families prefer the system of polygamy.

The monogamous system only occurs among those who are not very powerful or ordinary people.

This led to Shrek Academy always advocating a monogamous system because of the supreme love between Tang San's ancestor and his wife Xiao Wu, which was considered an anomaly in the eyes of the nobles and powerful people on the continent.

Indeed, such devoted love deserves praise, but who says that being affectionate doesn't equate to true love? If someone can truly be responsible for all their lovers to the end and always keep them in their heart, isn't that also a form of love?

Love shouldn't be blindly ranked; as long as two people care about each other, that's enough.

While Zhang Lexuan might outright deny that such arguments are mere sophistry, she wouldn't completely dismiss the other party's claims.

Because even in some part of her heart, she had longed for the heart of the person she loved to be more expansive, even if it didn't hold as much weight as that of the young girl, but at least to have a place for herself.

Just then, the two reached the end of the corridor, where a huge golden wooden door appeared before them.

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan said, "This is the passage leading to the roots of the Golden Ancient Tree. Just keep going down from there and you will reach your destination."

Xu Xingyu asked curiously, "Isn't Senior Sister coming in with me?"

Zhang Lexuan shook her head and said, "No, I've already cultivated here once this month, and there's someone over there who wants to see you and have a private chat with you."

After saying that, Zhang Lexuan turned and left, not forgetting to say goodbye to Xu Xingyu before she left.
