Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

Despite saying he wouldn't eat, Dongqing couldn't resist Shuiyue'er's enthusiasm and was dragged to a stylish restaurant. Under Shuiyue'er's pained expression, he ordered several expensive dishes of sea spirit beast delicacies.

Don't be fooled by the high price of the delicacies made by these sea spirit beasts—a small portion can cost thousands or even tens of thousands of gold spirit coins—they also help spirit masters accelerate their cultivation of spirit power.

In fact, even mortals without soul power can eat these delicacies from sea spirit beasts.

When consumed by ordinary people, it strengthens the body's foundation, nourishes the kidneys, and replenishes vital energy.

However, those who can truly afford to eat the delicacies of sea spirit beasts are either extremely wealthy merchants, or high-ranking officials and royalty.

In a world where humans are in charge, most animals that are not humanoid are turned into food, and these sweet, chewy sea spirits are no exception.

However, since sea spirit beasts are inherently difficult to capture, and the age of sea spirit beasts in the ocean is uncertain, if someone below the Title Douluo level is unlucky enough to encounter a ten-thousand-year-old sea spirit beast, the result will be the destruction of the ship and the loss of life.

.....

An hour later.

We were full and satisfied.

Just as Dong Qing was about to get up and leave, Shui Bing'er, who had been silently considering the pros and cons throughout the meal, finally made a decision.

“Your Highness, I am merely your follower. You cannot force me if I do not wish to.”

Am I really that worthless in your eyes?

"What do you think, Your Highness...?"

Chapter 512, [Memories Paused]

Although Dongqing didn't understand why he was so unworthy in Shui Bing'er's eyes, he didn't have the energy to dwell on such meaningless things.

Because no matter what, she's mine now, and there's plenty of time in the future to gradually change her opinion of me.

As a genius with the top-tier beast spirit Ice Phoenix, Dong Qing believed that once Shui Bing'er grew up, she would definitely become his number one general.

no way.

Dong Qing couldn't possibly compare to Dong, Qian Renxue, Dark Qian Renxue, Hu Liena, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, Blue Silver Emperor A Yin... all these confidantes she could order around.

Zhu Zhuyun is the secretary, Arou is the mother-in-law, Bai Chenxiang is the younger sister, Ning Rongrong is the little princess, Ye Lingling is the private doctor, and Dugu Yan is... Why would I mention her?

Mei Xiangxue, Li Yuexian, and Li Yuemei, these followers of the news newspaper headquarters, are Dongqing's money bags.

Therefore, he really needs a follower like Shui Bing'er, who possesses great talent and can be at his beck and call.

As for the Min Clan, Fire Leopard Sect, Sparrow Peak Sect, and Rock Antelope Sect under his command, these sects are not lacking in mid-to-high-end experts at the level of eight-ring Soul Douluo and seven-ring Soul Saint.

They're fine for running errands, but in a head-on confrontation, they're definitely no match for Shui Bing'er after she's grown up. You have to understand, she's a genius with the top-tier beast spirit, the Ice Phoenix.

.....

Just as Dong Qing was pondering, Shui Bing'er continued, "Besides me, you can't bully my sister either, even if she's willing. Unless you have the ability to create a huge hole in the sky and conquer me with unparalleled power, I'm not comfortable letting her lose her most precious thing to you."

Shui Bing'er knew that she would be Dong Qing's follower from now on. As long as he didn't abandon her, theoretically, she would have to stay by his side for the rest of her life.

Therefore, she made these demands without hesitation, thus eliminating the possibility of Dongqing stealing Shuiyue'er's affections.

In her opinion.

No matter how powerful Dong Qing is, or how strong his cultivation talent is, it is impossible for him to possess the power to create a huge void in the azure sky in a short period of time.

"Um... okay, no problem."

Dong Qing was unsure whether he should tell her the truth: he was the one who blasted a hole in the sky.

"Sister! What do you mean by that? You want to stay single forever, but I still want to find a man!"

Unlike Dongqing's embarrassment, Shuiyue stared at Shuibing'er with a resentful look, her eyes almost overflowing with resentment.

Upon seeing this.

Shui Bing'er scratched her head helplessly, and after thinking seriously for several minutes, she said in a conciliatory tone, "Yue'er, you are still young and don't understand what love is, nor do you understand what a philandering scumbag he is, surrounded by women. If you still like Prince Dongqing in five years, I will no longer care about you. Is that okay?"

The words fell.

Shui Yue'er glanced at Shui Bing'er with a strange look in her eyes, finding it hard to believe that her sister could have such a pure side.

Love? My foolish sister, you actually believe in such a thing!

"Three years! Three years at most!" Shui Yue'er said with an extremely firm attitude.

Just kidding, five years? You make it sound so easy.

If one cannot break through to the Title Douluo level and extend their lifespan, the lifespan of a mortal is only a little over a hundred years. How many five-year periods does one have in a lifetime?

Sister, do you really want your younger sister to become a nun who lives a life of abstinence and celibacy?

Do you know who the men I usually fantasize about are?

The man standing in front of you is the one who fulfills all my fantasies...

At this time.

Seeing that Shui Yue'er's attitude was so firm, Shui Bing'er had no choice but to compromise once again: "Fine, but I think you'll see that Prince Dongqing is a philandering scumbag in a year at most."

"Huh? You're calling me... a philandering scumbag?"

Dong Qing looked at Shui Bing'er, who had repeatedly slandered his reputation, with a dangerous glint in his eyes, and the surrounding space suddenly felt heavy.

next second.

Dong Qing's expression returned to calm, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, saying softly, "Shui Bing'er, I remember you seem to be my follower now. Isn't it a bit disrespectful to speak of your master like this to his face?"

These words were spoken.

Shui Bing'er's neck flushed slightly below her collar, and she seemed to radiate an immense chill, like a central air conditioner.

She quickly spat a few times and said, "Pah, pah, pah, what master? The follower agreement takes effect one hour later. I forgot to mention, you can't force me to call you master."

I knew you'd say that...

Dong Qing said firmly, "No, I don't agree to any delay in taking effect. Since you've already said that about me, then I'll just consider you scum in your eyes. Now, call me master!"

A woman who is too unruly is no good; she must be properly disciplined.

Dong Qing had no interest in finding another confidante; this time, he genuinely wanted to gain a follower, and Shui Bing'er was the prey he had his eye on.

The Ice Phoenix Martial Soul—no matter what, it's an Ice Phoenix! Even if it only has a trace of phoenix essence, it still has great potential for cultivation.

"Your Highness Dongqing, aren't you afraid that I'll regret it and deny ever agreeing to be your follower?"

Shui Bing'er regretted agreeing to Dong Qing's request too soon; she had long suspected that this man would deliberately bully her.

But unexpectedly, the way he's bullying me now is by making me call him master.

Although from a follower's perspective, calling Dongqing "master" wouldn't be a problem, she still found it hard to say it.

Actually, Shui Bing'er was overthinking things; Dong Qing really didn't mean to make things difficult for her.

Titan, the former leader of the Power Clan, was quite pleased when he called Tang Hao "master," especially since he liked to refer to himself as "old servant."

Moreover, in Dong Qing's own view, the term "master" between men and women, unless it is intentional, is more about ambiguity and does not inherently carry an insulting meaning.

Faced with Shui Bing'er's threat of remorse, Dong Qing remained calm and composed, saying confidently, "You won't. I know you. Only by following me will you have the chance to see a higher view."

"Besides, you know me. You know I'm a reliable person. Perhaps it's true, as you say, that I'm a bit of a flirt, but I believe you've also learned about my true character from Xiao Wu, Zhu Qing, and Xiang Xiang."

“Otherwise, given your cautious nature, when I invited you to become my follower, you would probably have already found an opportunity to leave this place with your younger sister, Shuiyue’er, let alone be willing to have lunch with me.”

"Don't worry, Shui Bing'er. Making you call me master is not an insult to you, but just a small punishment for you cursing me earlier. As long as you don't curse me again, I won't force you to call me that."

Hearing Dongqing say this, Shui Bing'er's psychological defenses began to crumble, and her desire to resist vanished like a flood. She had thought that Dongqing would make her call him master at all times from now on.

That stingy man! He holds a grudge if I say anything to him!

Shui Bing'er opened her icy blue eyes, a wave of extreme shyness washing over her. She stammered, "M-Master, if one day I can defeat you..."

“Then you can do whatever you want to me, and I can guarantee I won’t resist,” Dong Qing said casually.

Shui Bing'er glared at Dong Qing, as if to say, "You're dreaming," and then said, "Dream on! I'll make you call me master and become a follower of us sisters."

"What a beautiful dream!"

Dong Qing stretched, lightly rubbing the back of his head with his arms, and sighed that his new follower, Shui Bing'er, really knew how to daydream.

Oh, right, there's something I forgot to mention.

After Shui Bing'er became Dong Qing's follower, Shui Yue'er, as a "buy one get one free" gift, naturally had to follow him and do things for him.

.......

Two and a half hours passed.

Endless Sea, Poseidon Island, Outer Region.

On the azure sea, a small boat about ten meters long sped along, propelled by the wind, like an arrow shot from a bow, heading towards a certain island.

But at this very moment...

A huge, pitch-black shadow appeared beneath the ten-meter-long boat, immediately attracting the attention of those on board.

"This level of soul power pressure indicates that this is a sea soul beast that is over 50,000 years old. The sea is the best battlefield to enhance its combat power. Its overall strength is comparable to a 100,000-year-old land soul beast. It is invincible."

"Are sea spirit beasts that terrifying? Sister, let's hurry up and go. You have the top-tier beast spirit Ice Phoenix, which allows you to fly naturally. Taking you along shouldn't be too much of a problem."

"It doesn't matter, I'll take action!"

next moment.

A lithe and slender figure leaped out of the small boat and fell onto the blue sea surface with the help of invisible gravity.

Just as the sea spirit beast with over 50,000 years of soul power beneath the small boat opened its blood-red maw, about to devour the ten-meter-long vessel, this lithe and slender figure raised its foot and stomped heavily on the sea surface.

"boom"

Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted.

The once calm sea surface was suddenly churned up with hundreds of feet of white waves, and a huge hole with a diameter of seventy meters appeared on the sea surface.

at the same time.

The sea spirit beast's body was almost shattered. Before it could even react, it was suddenly kicked several kilometers away.

soon.

A spirit ring gleaming with a jet-black light slowly floated up and rotated clockwise on the corpse of the ten-thousand-year-old sea spirit beast.
