Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 97 Farewell and Return to the Stars

"Brother Yun, what are your plans for the holiday?"

By the shore of Poseidon Lake, Lin Yun and Xiao Xiao walked hand in hand. The latter turned to look at Lin Yun, her tone filled with reluctance.

This is how couples in love are: Xiao Xiao hardly wanted to be separated from Lin Yun for even a moment, let alone for a whole month.

Lin Yun didn't find Xiao Xiao annoying at all; the clingy little girl was still quite cute.

"I do have some arrangements. I need to go home to get a soul ring, and there are some other important things I need to retrieve," Lin Yun said with a smile, rubbing Xiao Xiao's head.

"I see... I understand." Xiao Xiao nodded, looking somewhat dejected.

"If you're so reluctant to part with me, why don't you come to my house for a visit? I guarantee you'll be amazed." Lin Yun smiled mischievously and raised an eyebrow at Xiao Xiao.

"My house is quite big, so I can just go straight to sleep when I'm tired from playing!"

Lake of Life welcomes you!

Hehehehe~

Surely those 100,000-year-old soul beasts in Xingdou would leave the little girl speechless, right?

"Oh? So fast? This isn't good..." Xiao Xiao's disappointment vanished, replaced by a shy blush. To her, Lin Yun's words sounded no different from meeting the parents.

Although it's not uncommon for people to get married at twelve or thirteen in Douluo Continent, this little girl clearly doesn't have that awareness yet, and the CPU immediately overloaded and started smoking.

"Is it fast?" Lin Yun thought it was alright.

The sooner we tell Xiao Xiao the truth, the better. While she's still young and head over heels in love, we can easily seduce her to the side of the soul beasts and avoid any dramatic, life-or-death situations in the future.

"What do you think? She's not even thirteen yet! How can she go to meet your parents so soon? It should be a few more years..." Xiao Xiao pouted and rolled her eyes cutely, but after Lin Yun's interruption, the sadness of parting faded a lot.

Only thirteen years old...

Lin Yun stopped and looked Xiao Xiao up and down.

To be honest, people in Douluo Continent, especially Soul Masters, really develop at a young age. Especially in the past few months of spending time with Xiao Xiao, Lin Yun secretly fed her a lot of spiritual medicines that were special to the Star Dou Great Forest. She really looks no different from an eighteen-year-old girl now.

Well, aside from her chest being a bit flat, she's already almost 1.7 meters tall, with a single side ponytail, clear big eyes, and a pure and cute little face.

Those jade-like feet also show a trend towards food-grade development.

This caused Lin Yun to frequently forget her age, and he only realized it now. If this were on Little Broken Ball, he would be carrying the filth of a pedophile and facing a maximum sentence of three years imprisonment.

Xiao Xiao blushed, her gaze darting away as she met Lin Yun's somewhat intense gaze: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

That undisguised gaze was filled with a bitter taste!

"It's nothing, just checking on my Xiao Xiao." Lin Yun smiled and shook his head, changing the subject.

Since Xiao Xiao has no intention of leaving with him, the plan to take her back to Xingdou can be postponed for a while, since there's no rush.

Even among the 100,000-year-old transformed soul beasts, there are several traitors who serve as dogs for humans, including Gu Yuena, their boss. So what if I, as the king of soul beasts, abduct a few human girls to be my queens?

That makes perfect sense!

I, Lin Yun, am a double standard, but I won't hide or deny it.

Soul beasts betray soul beasts: Die! Humans betray humans: Abandon darkness and embrace light!

In any case, human history is a history of war. In the absence of external threats, internal strife is the eternal main theme. There is no creature in the world more inclined to kill each other than humans.

Moreover, Lin Yun had no intention of completely annihilating humanity; he simply wanted to lead the soul beasts to overthrow the God Realm and rebuild the glory of the beast race.

It's still acceptable no matter how you look at it.

His feelings for Xiao Xiao haven't reached the point where she's completely obsessed with love yet. If he were to take her back to the Star Dou Great Forest now, it might actually scare the little girl. It would be fine to wait a few more years.

However, we must keep a close eye on her and make sure she doesn't get brainwashed by Shrek Academy and become a fanatic.

anyway.

Although Xiao Xiao was no longer bothered by the month-long separation, she cherished these last few days. If it weren't for the fact that Shrek Academy did not allow students to go to the opposite sex's dormitory, and Xiao Xiao's own modesty as a girl, she would have loved to sleep with Lin Yun.

On the day of parting, the sun was obscured by thick clouds, and the drizzling rain was blown obliquely by the breeze, drawing circles and circles on the rippling surface of Poseidon Lake.

On the lakeshore, two figures holding umbrellas stood facing each other, staring into each other's eyes in silence.

"I'm leaving now, see you in a month!" Xiao Xiao forced a smile, her eyes red.

Hearing her slightly choked voice, Lin Yun's heart was gently touched.

"Okay, see you in a month." Lin Yun nodded slightly.

"We made a promise, so you can't lie!" Xiao Xiao turned around, stepping on the wet grass in the rain, and left without looking back. "Watch me leave, and wait for me to go first."

"I'll be here waiting for you a month from now, until the day you come back!"

……

A dark green stream of light pierced through the rain curtain. Inside the light, the Demon King used his soul power to create a shield, and together with Lin Yun, they created sonic booms in the clouds.

The rapid flight even caused arcs of electricity to flash in the surrounding clouds, giving the entire rainy world a somewhat grotesque and abstract beauty.

Shrek City is not far from the Star Dou Great Forest. The city's predecessor was Spirit City. Shrek City was built on the ruins of Spirit City, with the purpose of intercepting the beast tide of the Star Dou Great Forest at the first opportunity and protecting the human world.

The Demon King's flight speed was also very fast. Before long, the rapid flight gradually slowed down, and the flight altitude of several thousand meters gradually decreased.

Lin Yun looked down and saw a blue lake in the distance, like a gemstone, embedded in the endless sea of ​​trees in the Starry Sky Forest.

Under the hazy, dreamlike rain, the Starry Sky Forest viewed from this perspective truly resembles a fairyland.

The dark green light gradually dissipated, revealing the figures of Lin Yun and the Demon King. The Ice Emperor also quietly appeared in a turquoise light. Now, the three of them were facing a group of ferocious beasts from the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Your Excellency!" Di Tian bowed respectfully.

"I'm back." Lin Yun smiled and took a deep breath of the familiar scent of the Lake of Life, a scent brimming with vitality.

Stars, your supreme ruler has returned!
