Douluo Continent: With my extraordinary comprehension, I want to be a salted fish.

Chapter 14 Call Me Brother

After praising her first soul skill, Guangling looked at Xinya and reached out to touch the long, silvery-white hair hanging over her shoulder.

The smooth, delicate texture made him reluctant to put it down!

Guangling asked, "When your martial soul appears, does your hair turn silver-white?"

Xin Ya tilted her head and looked at it, then nodded and said, "Yes, isn't it ugly because of the influence of the martial spirit?"

The man smiled. "You're quite good-looking, like me."

The little girl shoved him away and said, "Who's like you? Have you no shame!"

After saying that, she withdrew her martial spirit, and the defensive barrier disappeared.

Guangling's lips curled slightly. "Now that you've absorbed all your spirit rings, let's get out of here quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped forward, put his arm around Xin Ya's slender waist, and ice wings extended from his back, carrying the little girl as they flew swiftly along the narrow path ahead.

It flew for half an hour.

The two finally saw an oval-shaped light screen formed by condensed white light appear in front of them.

Xin Ya exclaimed excitedly, "That's the exit!"

As the exit appeared, the two saw a blood-red ocean a kilometer away from it.

Previously, they had been flying low along a narrow path, where at least there was a path below. But now, below them was a bottomless abyss of blood-soaked lava.

Guangling suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Xin Ya turned her head to look at the surging lava below. She swallowed nervously, then resolutely began to hug Guang Ling tightly with both hands and feet again.

She clung to the man like a koala.

The little head was buried in the crook of Guangling's neck, completely afraid to look at the bottomless abyss below!

Guang Ling's lips curled up slightly, knowing that she must be scared, so he unconsciously held her tightly with both hands to give her a sense of security.

He softened his voice for no apparent reason and said, "Don't be afraid, I won't let you fall."

Xin Ya nodded and gave a soft "hmm".

The Light Feather Ice Wings flashed, and it quickly took off, flying rapidly towards the exit of the light curtain.

As she flew over the blood pool lava that was thousands of feet deep, Xin Ya was so nervous that she tightly wrapped the light feathers around her hands and feet.

The man couldn't help but say, "Little thing, don't cling to me so tightly, I can't take it!"

"I'm sorry."

The little girl's voice sounded from the crook of his neck, and then she relaxed her hands and feet slightly.

A few minutes later.

With a whoosh, Guangling and Xinya finally darted into the white light curtain.

The moment the two entered the light curtain, Xin Ya felt everything around her change instantly.

Then, she felt her body enter a special space.

The space was cold and pale. She felt countless chills being released within her body. It was the chill brought by killing intent, the purest killing intent!

The chill made her tremble all over, and Xin Ya felt her heart gradually hardening.

"Is this the domain of the God of Slaughter?"

Consciousness gradually faded.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Xin Ya felt as if she were having a nightmare.

Suddenly, someone called in her ear, "Xiaoya...Xiaoya, wake up!"

The little girl slowly opened her eyes and saw a handsome face that could be either male or female.

Thinking she was dreaming, she dazedly reached out and began pinching Guangling's face.

"Oh dear~ Since it's a dream, I'm not afraid of you, you tsundere monster, in my dream. I'm going to bully you properly."

At this moment, Guangling was staring at a certain bold little thing with a displeased expression.

How dare you pinch his face!

The man yelled at her, "Xin Ya, are you looking for death?!"

"Um?"

The shout snapped the little girl back to reality, and her previously dazed eyes suddenly focused.

When she realized that what she was seeing was not a dream, she immediately withdrew her small hand, sat up, and took a few steps back.

Get away quickly from that gloomy-looking man!

Guangling stood up, glanced down at her, and said, "Get up now! Do you want me to come and pull you up?" Xinya immediately jumped up, muttering under her breath, "That fierce, arrogant monster!"

Guangling narrowed her eyes dangerously as she stared at her and said, "So you gave me a nickname, 'Tsundere Monster,' right?"

Xin Ya decisively took a few steps back and, mustering her courage, said, "You...you're just being arrogant, don't you know that? No...if I don't call you an arrogant monster, what should I call you?!"

Guangling scoffed, "I helped you so much on Hell Road, and instead of thanking me, you gave me a nickname!"

"You heartless little brat!!"

The young girl thought about it and realized that he had indeed helped her a lot, so she decided to thank him.

She looked at Guangling and said, "What you said makes sense. You really helped me a lot on Hell Road. Thank you!"

"Is just thanking them enough?"

Guangling raised an eyebrow at her.

Xin Ya asked, "Then what else do you want?"

The man raised an eyebrow and said, "Change the nickname you use to address me."

"Clam?"

Xin Ya asked blankly, "Change it to what?"

Guangling bowed to the little girl's eye level and smiled slightly, "Change it to brother. Come, call me that."

"I……"

Holy crap!

Xin Ya didn't say anything; instead, she shoved Guang Ling away, "I won't yell!"

Guangling tempted, "Didn't you want to go to the Spirit Hall with me? Call me 'brother,' and I'll take you there."

Xin Ya said, "Then I'll go by myself, you don't need to take me."

Guangling said nonchalantly, "Sure, but I'll instruct the guards on the city walls that no one named Xinya is allowed to enter without my order."

"Even if you manage to sneak into the city, you won't be able to enter the Spirit Hall, I guarantee it!"

"you……"

The little girl bit her lip and glared angrily at the man in front of her!

Guangling looked at her and said, "I have plenty of time. I'm waiting to hear your call. Whenever you call, we'll set off for Wuhun City."

"You can leave, but if you leave, you'll never be allowed to enter Wuhun City again."

"And I guarantee that wherever you go, the Spirit Hall will oppose you at every turn!"

Xin Ya was internally screaming: Damn it, this arrogant weirdo actually threatened her!

He threatened her over her brother's nickname!

How could this man be so awful?!

In the end, she had no choice but to compromise, since this guy was the Fifth Elder of the Spirit Hall.

They wield immense power; you really can't afford to offend them!

Moreover, not to mention the two great empires, the Spirit Hall has influence throughout the entire continent.

If she offends Guang Ling now, it will be difficult for her to live a life of luxury and ease in the Douluo Continent!

Xin Ya turned her face away and called out reluctantly, "Guang Ling... Brother... Brother."

Guangling glanced at her, "Call them out together!"

Xin Ya called out softly, "Brother Guang Ling."

"Too quiet, I can't hear you!" the man said again.

The little girl took a deep breath and said loudly, "Brother Guangling, are you satisfied now?"

Guangling's lips curled up instantly. "Remember, you have to call me that from now on."

After saying that, he turned around and walked forward, saying, "Let's go, let's go to a nearby town to get something to eat, and then rent a carriage to Wuhun City."

Xin Ya looked at the man's back with a displeased expression.

She was forced to scream; how could she possibly feel comfortable about it!

"Hurry up, stop dawdling, do you want me to come and drag you here?"

The voice of Guangling, who was walking ahead, came over.

The little girl had no choice but to hurry up and follow along, albeit reluctantly.

The two headed toward the nearest town.
