Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 18 Close Protection! (Please add to your favorites)

Lin Yun gave away twenty strands of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow without feeling any remorse.

Because he doesn't really need this stuff, and he's not an ice-attribute soul master, the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow is of very limited help to him.

There's no need to hoard all the good stuff. Lin Yun isn't a real Golden Dragon King; he's just a lucky one who received a gift from a powerful figure. Besides the Golden Dragon King's bloodline as his trump card, all he can rely on is his brain.

Sometimes, necessary sacrifices are required; only in this way can his power continue to expand.

Lin Yun felt that exchanging twenty strands of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow for the complete submission of the Ice and Snow Emperors was an incredibly worthwhile deal.

Let alone twenty, what difference would it make if we added another twenty?

That's a 400,000-year-old ferocious beast, plus another 700,000-year-old ferocious beast!

If the Ice and Snow Emperors hadn't just joined his ranks and it wasn't appropriate to give them too much at once, Lin Yun probably wouldn't have felt too bad even if he gave them all the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow.

Anyway, I picked it up from the Earth Dragon Gate...

Of course, Lin Yun didn't know that at this moment, his actions were remarkably similar to those of his predecessor. One had traded all of the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow for a beautiful and charming wife, while the other had traded half of the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow for two subordinates...

It's no wonder we're from the same hometown; even our ways of thinking are quite similar.

However, after the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow was distributed, Lin Yun fell into deep thought.

Even though he felt that everything was done, he always had a strange feeling that he had forgotten something.

"What exactly is it that hasn't been done yet?" Lin Yun frowned, deep in thought.

"Your Excellency, you forgot to retrieve your second soul ring," Di Tian whispered in Lin Yun's ear.

"Holy crap, yeah!" Lin Yun slapped his forehead, his face full of speechlessness.

I forgot to get my second spirit ring!

The thought of going to the far north to abduct the two Ice and Snow Emperors filled Lin Yun's mind with scheming against these two northern kings, one a mature woman and the other a young girl, and he even forgot that he hadn't gotten his own soul ring.

You should know that one of the most important reasons he originally went to the far north was to obtain a Titan Snow Demon as his second spirit ring!

"Speechless. Looks like I'll have to go back to the far north again." Lin Yun sighed, feeling a headache coming on. "Why didn't you remind me!"

"I apologize, Your Majesty, I forgot too." Di Tian coughed awkwardly twice.

Damn it, I was so engrossed in watching His Majesty's strategic brilliance in the far north that I never imagined the Golden Dragon King, known for his recklessness, would actually have such a sharp mind. I completely forgot about it.

I'm so damn stupid!

Di Tian felt that whenever he woke up in the middle of the night and thought about this, he would want to slap himself twice.

The Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor, who had already collected the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, also came over. The Snow Emperor asked curiously, "Your Excellency, can't you condense your own soul ring? Why do you still need to absorb it?"

"I'm different from you. I've completely transformed. Apart from my most fundamental power, I'm no different from ordinary humans. Only in this way can I avoid the rules of the God Realm that suppress soul beasts and perfectly hide myself." Lin Yun shook his head and began to deceive.

But Xue Di and Bing Di clearly believed it, and they believed it without a doubt.

"As expected of Your Majesty, I simply couldn't have done that. Even with the help of the 100,000-year-old snow lotus, I still retain the characteristics of a soul beast after transforming into human form," the Snow Empress said with admiration.

"What? Xue'er, you're going to transform into human form?" Hyotei looked at Xue'er in surprise.

Xue Di shook her head: "That was my previous idea. After meeting Your Excellency, I abandoned that plan."

"Let's not talk about that, Your Majesty. What kind of spirit beast's spirit ring do you need? Perhaps we can help you." "Yes, Your Majesty, let's go and capture a spirit beast for you." The Ice Emperor, who had just received a bribe, also offered his obsequiousness.

"Your Majesty needs an 8,800-year-old Titan Snow Demon." Di Tian once again acted as Lin Yun's mouth substitute.

"Titan Snow Demon, huh..." Snow Empress mused.

Hyotei waved her little fist and said, "Alright, I'll go back to the far north and bring one back for His Majesty!"

Xue Di quickly grabbed the little girl's twin ponytails and pulled her back.

If Hyotei were to go to Titan Snow Demon King's territory to capture a Titan Snow Demon, Atai would definitely fight her. Even if Atai couldn't beat her, he wouldn't let her take away his people at will.

"I'll go. After all, I am the ruler of the far north. I will discuss this matter with Atai." Xue Di gently pressed down the restless little girl and said softly.

"Yes, little scorpion, you'd better behave yourself and hurry up and overcome your tribulation to break through 400,000 years of cultivation. After that, I'll need you to protect me closely." Lin Yun said with a smile.

He was going to Shrek Academy, so it was impossible for him to just run there alone like an idiot. With the Star Dou Great Forest as his backing, wouldn't it be reasonable and logical for him to carry a 100,000-year-old soul beast bodyguard with him?

Zi Ji is a hellish dragon, too big, and Bi Ji is an emerald swan, not very powerful. Moreover, they are both Di Tian's wives. Even if Di Tian doesn't mind, Lin Yun isn't used to having two Ren Qi around.

Bringing other male soul beasts is even worse; I simply cannot accept that.

If we calculate it that way, isn't Ice Emperor the only one most suitable to accompany Lin Yun to Shrek Academy?

Ice Jade Scorpion is small to begin with; Ice Emperor's largest body is only 1.5 meters long. Shrinking her tenfold is not a problem. If we give her something to conceal her aura, she can hide in Lin Yun's clothes to protect him at any time.

This is a move that's called "Just throw a Poké Ball and I choose you, Hyotei!"

"Close protection?" Hyotei blinked his adorable green eyes, looking completely bewildered.

"No problem, whatever Your Majesty says, Bing'er will do!"

"Good girl, Di Tianlai! Give her two more Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow!" Lin Yun waved his hand.

The master is very satisfied and will reward him handsomely!

Di Tian expressionlessly took out two more Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrows and handed them to the beaming Ice Emperor.

Snow Empress looked at Ice Empress, who was grinning foolishly, and shook her head helplessly.

"Bing'er is still too young..."

"In that case, I will return to the far north first and bring back a Titan Snow Demon for Your Majesty." The Snow Empress bowed slightly to Lin Yun.

"Please wait a moment, Your Excellency."

"Go ahead, I'll be waiting for your good news in Xingdou." Lin Yun waved with a smile, then pulled the little loli Ice Emperor from Snow Emperor's arms and pinched her cute little face with affection.

"No way!"

"You can't touch that part, Your Majesty! What?!"

Di Tian patted his forehead, exchanged a glance with Xue Di, and then left helplessly.
