Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 68 Ice Jade Scorpion - Qing'er (Please Subscribe)

Suppressing the urge to beat up that idiot, Lin Yun turned and left.

"Has anything changed in the Star Dou Great Forest recently?" Lin Yun asked casually.

"Your Majesty, everything is normal in the Star Dou Great Forest, and no accidents have occurred," the Demon King replied.

This is the most normal state. Whether Lin Yun is there or not, the Star Dou Great Forest is still the Star Dou Great Forest. How long has he been away from Star Dou? Just this little bit of time. Even if a butterfly flaps its wings until they break, it can't make any waves.

"What about the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?" Lin Yun asked again.

"Ah, this..." The Demon King paused, suddenly unsure how to begin.

"Hehe, I could guess even if you didn't tell me, that girl is transforming into human form right now, right?" Lin Yun chuckled.

"Your Majesty is indeed a prophet." The Demon King could only admit helplessly.

With a prophet having a storyline, plus the sudden disappearance of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and the fact that before she disappeared, he used to sleep with Hyotei every day, but now he doesn't sleep with her anymore, the little girl will naturally feel a sense of loss.

It's normal to think about turning into a human through chemical transformation.

Di Tian's mysterious demeanor had already aroused Lin Yun's suspicion. The only thing that was uncertain was whether Di Tian and the others would allow the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to take human form.

This was what surprised Lin Yun the most.

Logically speaking, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion carries the fortune of the Star Dou Great Forest, and Di Tian would never agree to let her take human form. If something unexpected happens, it would be a devastating blow to the fortune of Star Dou.

However, it's good that she has transformed. After transforming, apart from the three dogs, it's practically impossible for anyone to see what her true form is. As long as Di Tian keeps a close eye on her, Huo Yuhao will absolutely not have the opportunity to form an attribute bond with her.

Do you want to seize the fortune of the stars?

Ha, I'll smash your teeth to pieces.

"I don't care what you're thinking, but the auspicious beast absolutely cannot be lost. Tell Di Tian that there's no need to worry about Gu Yuena; no one can threaten her right now. But the auspicious beast has already been targeted, so you must protect it well," Lin Yun instructed.

"Yes, I understand!" The Demon King's expression hardened, and he said in a deep voice.

Even Lin Yun was wary of such an opponent; they were definitely not easy to deal with. The importance of auspicious beasts to the Star Dou Great Forest was self-evident, and the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons was well aware of this.

He wouldn't let Lin Yun down after giving him such a serious instruction.

After all, there is only one Xuanzi in the Peerless Tang Sect.

After waving for the Demon King to leave, Lin Yun sat in the courtyard, brewed a cup of tea, and waited for the Ice Emperor's return while basking in the sun.

Under the blazing sun, Lin Yun's Golden Dragon King bloodline was extremely active. He could feel his soul power flowing faster, and every cell in his body seemed to be cheering and jumping for joy in the sunlight.

Once Electrolux successfully creates the cultivation technique that Lin Yun needs, his growth rate will be greatly increased.

Time passed slowly.

Not long after, a bright green light appeared, and Hyotei's figure was revealed. In her hands, she held an ice-green scorpion that was about twenty or thirty centimeters long.

The Ice Jade Scorpion clan is inherently small. When the Ice Emperor had 390,000 years of cultivation, his body length was 1.5 meters. After passing through the 400,000-year Heavenly Tribulation, the Ice Emperor's body length grew to 1.8 meters.

The Ice Jade Scorpion in her hand had a cultivation level of about three thousand years, and its size was only considered petite compared to the Ice Emperor.

However, while Ice Emperor can change size, it needs to reach ten thousand years of cultivation before it can begin to control its size changes. "Your Majesty, I'm back." Ice Emperor skipped over to Lin Yun's side and handed him the trembling Ice Jade Scorpion.

Lin Yun took the little scorpion, holding it in his palm with one hand and gently stroking its cool, smooth carapace with the other.

It's really beautiful.

Its entire body is sky blue with a hint of light green, its carapace is smooth and bright, its nine-segmented tail is like a piece of jade, and its two small, crystal-yellow eyes are like two gemstones, making it as beautiful as a work of art.

Of course, it's not quite as good as Hyotei's original form, but it's definitely beautiful.

"Thank you, I really like it!" Lin Yun said with a smile.

Sensing the warmth emanating from Lin Yun, the ice-green scorpion was no longer afraid and raised its head to look at Lin Yun curiously.

This is a royal Ice Jade Scorpion, similar to the Ice Emperor. If it continues to grow, it will definitely be able to break through the 100,000-year level. Its number in the Ice Jade Scorpion clan is less than two hands' worth.

Of course, Lin Yun was unaware of these things.

"I'm glad Your Majesty likes it, but I also hope Your Majesty will treat my people well." The Ice Emperor pursed her lips and stroked it with a look of pity in her eyes.

Lin Yun nodded, pulled Hyotei into his arms, and let her sit on his lap.

Ice Emperor, who had been used as a body pillow by Lin Yun for countless nights, was not shy at all. She sat down naturally and took some fragments from the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow and placed them in Lin Yun's hand.

The little eyes of the ice-green scorpion lit up slightly, and it instantly looked at the fragment of the ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow that the Ice Emperor had placed in Lin Yun's hand.

"It smells so good! I really want to eat it!" The little ice scorpion was very eager for the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, but without Lin Yun and the Ice Emperor's instructions, it did not make any rash moves, even though it was already drooling with desire.

"Haha, eat up! No need to hold back!" Lin Yun chuckled and tapped it with his finger. The little ice scorpion then swallowed the fragments of the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow in one gulp, its little eyes shining with satisfaction.

"Is it male or female? Does it have a name?" Lin Yun asked Hyotei.

"It's female and doesn't have a name yet. Your Majesty, would you like to give it a name?" Hyotei winked playfully and asked with a smile.

Although bringing a female Ice Jade Scorpion as a pet to Lin Yun felt a bit like creating a rival for her affections, Ice Empress didn't care too much. After all, it was one of her own kind; she was the ancestor of the Ice Jade Scorpion clan.

I doubt it would dare compete with me for favor!

"It's female... its body is mostly blue, so let's call it Qing'er, what do you think?" Lin Yun asked Ice Emperor, lifting up the little ice scorpion.

"It is an honor for it to receive a name bestowed by His Majesty, and I'm sure it will like this name," said Hyotei.

"Then we'll call it Qing'er from now on!"

Under the sunlight, Little Ice Jade Scorpion Qing'er waved its little pincers. Of course, it couldn't understand Lin Yun's words, but with Ice Emperor there to communicate on its behalf, it quickly accepted its new name and seemed quite satisfied.

Now that he had obtained the Myriad-Year Profound Ice Marrow and Qing'er, Lin Yun decided not to stay there any longer.

After stuffing Hyotei and Qing'er into his pockets, Lin Yun strolled back to Shrek Academy.
