"The Phoenix Clan and I will reach new heights because of you!"
Their futures were already inextricably linked, each an inseparable part of the other. Reflected in his dark eyes was Leng Yaozhu's stunningly beautiful face, brimming with excitement and passion. Zhao Xuanzhen nodded emphatically, his voice deep and resolute:
"Teacher, we definitely will..."
……
The headquarters of the Spirit Pagoda, on the ninety-ninth floor.
The morning light gently seeped into the room, spreading silently and filling the air with a warm, intoxicating feeling.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the day to depart for the Star Luo Continent arrived. Two slender figures were entangled by the door, with the silver-haired girl trying to push the black-haired girl away.
"Hey, Gu Yue, hurry up and go out. I need to be alone with Zhao Xuanzhen for a while!"
Na'er hugged Gu Yue tightly, straining with her whole body and even her expression, and forcefully pushed Gu Yue out of the door of the ninety-ninth floor.
"nerve."
Gu Yue tossed her long hair and went straight downstairs. The Star Luo Continent exchange activity was expected to last a year. During this time, Xuan Na was separated from her by the sea, and Zhao Xuanzhen belonged only to her. Therefore, Gu Yue did not care about Na'er's possessive behavior at the moment. She thought that the other party was reluctant to part with Zhao Xuanzhen. Gu Yue did not believe that she could make a fuss in a few minutes!
Na'er leaned against the door, exhaled softly, straightened her slightly wrinkled clothes, and took small steps toward Zhao Xuanzhen's room. The latter happened to come out of the room and saw the girl with waist-length silver hair.
The top was a clean, pure white, outlining her slender waist and perfect curves that made it impossible to see her toes when she looked down. Na'er's skirt today was only above her knees, and white stockings bound her shapely legs, revealing glimpses of her fair skin, like a White Rabbit candy wrapped in transparent rice paper.
My appetite is soaring!
"Zhao Xuanzhen, here you go. Open it after you get on the ship, and don't peek beforehand!"
Na'er handed over a square brocade box, its packaging simple and clean. Her fingers were slightly curled, revealing a hint of barely perceptible tension.
Love is always a feeling of indebtedness; she still remembers the matter of the 100,000-year-old Thorn Dragon Emperor's soul bone. Inside the box lies the ferocious beast's soul bone she obtained from Gu Yue. Na'er couldn't explain the soul bone's origin, so she hadn't found an opportunity to give it to Zhao Xuanzhen.
The journey to Xingluo was actually an opportunity, so Na'er decided not to explain further and just send it over first.
Zhao Xuanzhen took the brocade box and put it into his storage soul tool. The next second, he magically returned a cold jade box to Na'er.
Silver Dragon Pill.
This silver dragon core will benefit both Gu Yue and Na'er, but it will be more beneficial to Na'er. Gu Yue possesses 70% of the Silver Dragon King's power, and an ordinary silver dragon cannot compensate for her bloodline. Na'er, on the other hand, has a significant deficiency in her Silver Dragon King bloodline, and the silver dragon soul within the core might become her soul ring.
Zhao Xuanzhen would never forget Gu Yue, nor the Yin-Yang Minglan Crane Inner Core that helped him condense his first Yin-Yang Soul Core. Douluo Star possesses more than just the Silver Dragon Core; many divine treasures await discovery, and Gu Yue will have them too.
Since Zhao Xuanzhen hadn't explicitly forbidden opening it now, Na'er, driven by curiosity, eagerly opened the jade box. Sensing the familiar bloodline of the silver dragon within the dragon core, she lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes casting butterfly-wing-like shadows, and an indescribable aura filled the air.
"Zhao Xuanzhen, you... close your eyes."
Looking up at her childhood sweetheart's handsome face, she saw a nearly uncontrollable tide surging in his silvery eyes. As they grew older and were separated for a year, the surging emotions finally broke down the invisible dam.
Zhao Xuanzhen responded softly as instructed, but kept his eyes open, his gaze quietly fixed on her face. The silent confrontation lasted only a moment, yet it felt infinitely long.
Na'er tiptoed, and the whole world suddenly rose upwards. The petal-like touch carried the unique sweetness of a young girl, and the long-standing hazy veil was torn to shreds by the reckless heat.
"Well……"
Zhao Xuanzhen tried to speak, but Na'er suddenly raised her hands, as if she had practiced a fighting move a thousand times, and wrapped her arms around Zhao Xuanzhen's neck, pressing his head down hard without giving him a chance to speak.
A delicate, sweet fragrance instantly enveloped Zhao Xuanzhen. In her panic, the girl exerted too much force, making his vision blur. He didn't struggle at all; instead, he calmed down in the darkness that carried the warmth of the girl's body.
Hearing seemed to break free from the constraints of the body, amplified infinitely. Through a layer of soft fabric, a sound was impacting the eardrum with astonishing frequency and force.
The fawn, brazenly searching for an exit, was fresh and hot, proclaiming the tumultuous emotions within its owner's heart.
The grip on the back of her neck loosened slightly, and a girl's clear voice rang out from above her head: "Idiot... idiot Zhao Xuanzhen, what are you doing?"
"Eavesdropping on your heartbeat."
The answer was clearly audible. The fingers gripping the back of her neck suddenly stiffened, tightening as if burned. The frantic heartbeat paused briefly, then resumed beating more rapidly and loudly.
Na'er was filled with regret for not daring to make a move until now. She completely released Zhao Xuanzhen's hands, instead cupping his cheeks in her hands, her eyes sparkling as she said:
"It's delicious! Let's have it again!"
Chapter 112 Those who admire Gu Yue are those who are selfish; those who directly criticize me will be punished with the most severe penalty. (4K)
The sky was a clear, bright blue, and the sun shone brightly. At the east gate of Shrek Academy, all seven students, along with their teachers, the Crimson Dragon Douluo Zhuoshi and Wu Changkong, were present.
After the revenge battle between Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Shen Yi was promoted to the head teacher of the first year and needed to stay to teach the students. The task of accompanying him fell to Wu Changkong.
In fact, Wu Changkong was under punishment and should not have joined the team, but Crimson Dragon Douluo genuinely liked this disciple, so he privately swallowed his pride and asked Sky Douluo Yun Ming to give Wu Changkong another chance.
Yun Ming considered that Zhuo Shi was the dean of the outer academy, and that the older comrade's personality was not as abstract as Cai Yue'er's. He also noted that Shrek Academy's outer academy was thriving and that Zhuo Shi was the leader of this exchange activity. Therefore, Yun Ming nodded and agreed to Zhuo Shi's request.
Shrek and his group did not go directly to the Star Luo Continent, but instead went to Tianhai City, the largest city in the east, to meet with the Star Luo Continent delegation and cross the ocean together on a giant ship.
Zhuo Shi's broad, generous hand swept across the storage soul tool, and a giant mecha crashed to the ground. Its paint job wasn't any of white, yellow, purple, black, or red; it was Shrek Academy's signature dark green.
The god-level mech, Shrek.
Since it was a trip representing the entire academy, the Sea God Pavilion naturally wouldn't be stingy. Yun Ming waved his hand and allocated this special god-level mecha named after Shrek Academy to Zhuo Shi as a means of transportation.
The Shrek Academy's interior was extremely spacious, with rows of comfortable seats. Wu Changkong took the initiative to enter the cockpit, while the Crimson Dragon Douluo pulled away his grand-disciple Tang Wulin, and the old man and the young man discussed the Nine Forms of the Crimson Dragon.
Zhao Xuanzhen casually chose a seat in the middle by the window, and Gu Yue naturally sat down next to him. Ye Xinglan's eyes flickered, and she chose to sit behind Zhao Xuanzhen, with Yuan En Ye Hui becoming her partner.
Seeing this, Yue Zhengyu ran to the seat in front of Zhao Xuanzhen with a smile. Xu Lizhi saw that Yuan Enyehui was next to Ye Xinglan. His expression was half relieved and half disappointed. He secretly swallowed and tiptoed to sit behind Ye Xinglan.
"boom--"
Wu Changkong activated the Shrek, and the god-level mech soared into the sky like a giant eagle, heading towards the distant Tianhai City.
Gu Yue tossed her long, dark hair, a smile playing on her rosy lips. With the little silver-haired idiot confined to the Douluo Continent, the rest were no threat. For the next year, Zhao Xuanzhen would belong solely to her!
Although her daily training with Na'er during this period made her sense something unusual, and it was even possible that the Silver Dragon King could roar into the world in another form without needing to devour the other party, that would require them to be of one mind and for Na'er to cooperate with her completely.
Whether Na'er would cooperate remained an open question. Gu Yue also didn't want the Silver Dragon King to have Na'er's consciousness, fearing that he would be dragged into a ditch by that guy sooner or later. Deep down, she still insisted on devouring Na'er to directly replenish her bloodline and complete her evolution.
Gu Yue had imagined countless times what it would be like to return to Douluo Continent and be intimate with Zhao Xuanzhen. The silver-haired girl was so pained that she knelt down and trembled. Then Zhao Xuanzhen uttered those cold words that were enough to destroy the core of her humanity!
Opportunity only favors the prepared dragon. This year of solitude is the decisive factor. Gu Yue quietly plots how to completely surpass Na'er and become the sun that will never dim in Zhao Xuanzhen's heart.
As Gu Yue's abacus clicked away, she suddenly noticed something odd about Zhao Xuanzhen's attire out of the corner of her eye, and probed without batting an eye:
"Xuanzhen, it's quite hot outside, why are you wearing a turtleneck shirt?"
"...This is a trendy new style that the teacher specifically asked Sister Xiaobai to buy, so I just put it on." Zhao Xuanzhen said in a normal tone.
It's all Na'er's fault, you idiot!
It was as if the girl's evil seal had been broken. She had tasted the sweetness of it seven or eight times, and in the end, she acted coquettishly and insisted on leaving a mark on Zhao Xuanzhen, otherwise she would block the door and not allow him to leave.
Holding firm to the principle that time could not be wasted, Zhao Xuanzhen had no choice but to give in.
After going through many hardships, Na'er finally got her wish. The moment Zhao Xuanzhen left, she immediately transformed into a silver-haired husky and rolled around happily on the bed!
Having learned her lesson, Na'er behaved herself this time, no longer daring to continue her sarcastic remarks, for fear of pushing Gu Yue too far and causing what might happen during the Star Luo Journey. Na'er simply couldn't imagine!
Gu Yue nodded slightly, accepting the explanation. Her soft, delicate body swayed, and she unabashedly leaned into Zhao Xuanzhen's arms, closing her eyes to rest while contemplating another important matter besides Zhao Xuanzhen's decisive role.
The fate of the soul beasts hinges on the success or failure of the Star Luo Continent. Aside from the demon spirits remaining in the Star Dou Great Forest and the Hell Demon Dragon King Zi Ji on a mission at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters, ferocious beasts such as the Beast God Di Tian, the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear King Xiong Jun, and the Demon Eye Demon Tree Wan Yao Wang descend upon the Star Luo Continent to assist Gu Yue in completing his grand plan.
Zi Ji stayed in the Spirit Pagoda under the identity of the Purple Dragon Douluo, and together with the tech-savvy Illusion Brain Douluo Han Tianyi, she perfected the artificial ten-thousand-year soul spirit.
Artificial, ten-thousand-year-old souls possess the power to alter the landscape of the Soul Master world and are also incredibly important political resources. Groups like Gu Yue, Zhao Xuanzhen, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, and the Phoenix Clan all need them to their advantage.
Gently embracing Gu Yue's soft, fragrant shoulders, Zhao Xuanzhen adjusted his chest bones and flesh to make her as comfortable as possible.
Compared to Gu Yue, Zhao Xuanzhen faced far less pressure heading to the Star Luo Continent. With the protection of the two peak Eight Trigrams Gods, Zhi Fu and Teng She, the Star Luo Continent, which didn't even have a single Quasi-God, posed no threat whatsoever.
Since the Chief Steward Tengshe accompanied him to the Star Luo Continent, the two Super Evil Douluo locked in the underground chamber of Silver Sparrow Terrace were left unattended. Before leaving, Chief Steward Tengshe set up a double domain to prevent outsiders from entering Silver Sparrow Terrace and to ensure that they could not escape.
Anyway, Super Douluo won't starve. These two sinful evil soul masters aren't meant to enjoy themselves at Silver Sparrow Terrace; they deserve to reflect on their past in a dark and gloomy secret chamber.
The speed of the god-level mech far exceeded that of the black-level mech. The Shrek ship sailed unimpeded, parting the clouds to reach Tianhai City.
Most of the team members had visited this prosperous modern city, and Xuan Yuexing and Lin Pang had met during the Tianhai Alliance Grand Tournament. In the opening ceremony exhibition match, Xuan Yuelin's East Sea team defeated Xing Pang's Shrek team, causing the first major uproar.
Returning to the familiar city after many years, the five couldn't help but show a hint of nostalgia.
The delegation from Star Luo Continent to Douluo Continent numbered as many as a thousand, and the number of people returning the visit from Douluo Continent was also considerable.
Shrek and his group spotted the giant ocean liner in the distance, its hull gleaming with a metallic sheen and equipped with soul-guided weapons to ensure the team's safety.
The ocean is no tranquil place; its number of spirit beasts is dozens of times greater than that on land. Nowadays, the number of ferocious beasts on land is extremely limited, with the spirit master community generally believing that these beasts cower in fear within the Star Dou Great Forest. In contrast, the deep sea teems with monsters: the Deep Sea Demon Whale, the Demon Soul Great White Shark, the Evil Demon Orca, the Sea Princess…
Each one of them is a terrifying and infamous creature; for an ordinary ship, encountering them would be annihilation.
"Your Majesty the Crimson Dragon, I am Pan Wen, the Secretary General of the Federation."
A middle-aged man approached the Crimson Dragon Douluo Zhuoshi and greeted him respectfully.
"Hello, Secretary-General Pan," Zhuo Shi replied calmly.
Pan Wen's smile was impeccable: "Your Majesty, Crimson Dragon, on behalf of the Federation, I welcome you and all the Shrek Academy students to participate in this exchange activity. There are also members of the Star Luo Royal Academy from the Star Luo Continent on board, who hope to have the opportunity to spar with your esteemed academy during the long voyage."
"Star Luo Royal Academy..."
Zhuo Shi frowned. He had heard of this academy, but it was nothing compared to the Monster Academy that had caught Shrek's attention. It was so bad it was practically nonexistent.
“Shrek never minds being challenged.” Zhuo Shi strode past Pan Wen, showing no regard for the Star Luo Royal Academy.
Pan Wen sighed softly. Shrek Academy claimed to be neutral and had never been close to the Federation. However, due to its deep-rooted foundation, the Federation could only turn a blind eye.
The group boarded the giant ship, and the waiters handed each person their room key. The cabins were equipped with balconies, offering views of the outside world and the pleasure of enjoying the sea breeze.
"Woo——"
A deep whistle echoed through the sky as the giant ocean liner slowly sailed out of the dock, braving the waves towards the deep sea.
The sea was vast and magnificent, and soon the land was just a black line. All around were waves, the seawater was clear, and occasionally some large sea fish swam by.
Zhao Xuanzhen pushed open the balcony door. The cost of this giant ship was absolutely astronomical. Standing on the balcony, he could not feel the ship rocking. The sea breeze was blowing, and the deep red sunset light shone on his whole body.
Gu Yue lived next door, their balconies only two meters apart. The two smiled at each other.
Attention passengers!
Suddenly, an announcement blared across all cabins: "Welcome aboard the Star Luo ocean liner! Tonight we will be hosting a grand reception to promote lasting friendship between our two continents. Please dress to your finest!"
"oh!?"
Le Zhengyu's body trembled, and he quickly took out his storage soul tool and frantically searched for his formal attire. As the heir of the Holy Angel family, he was determined to make a name for himself at the party!
It took a full half hour for Le Zhengyu, dressed in a magnificent platinum suit, to confidently walk out of the room, only to bump into Tang Wulin.
"Hiss..." Le Zhengyu gasped. Tang Wulin, dressed in a black suit, was tall and had a delicate face. His stunning appearance was even more amazing than Le Zhengyu's!
Tang Wulin straightened his cuffs and smiled, "Before we set off, Sister Mu Xi insisted on taking me to buy a formal dress. I didn't expect it would actually come in handy."
Mu Xi is a second-year special admission student in the Foreign Languages Department. She and Tang Wulin are senior and junior classmates, and the two are usually very close. Le Zhengyu falls into a state of self-isolation and dies before the Angel's Party is even halfway through.
The Starship Ballroom is located on the second deck. The hall is magnificent, with crystal chandeliers illuminating the hall. The air is filled with the crisp scent of champagne, the rich aroma of food, and the waltz melodies played by a band behind the velvet curtains.
"Kasaichi?"
As Yue Zhengyu and Tang Wulin entered, they immediately spotted Xu Lizhi, a chubby boy dressed in Shrek Academy uniform who stood out from the handsome men and beautiful women around him.
Xu Lizhi scratched his head sheepishly: "Sorry, I didn't prepare a formal dress, and my figure isn't suitable for wearing such gorgeous clothes. Please stay away from me so I don't get laughed at."
"Shrek uniforms are the best formal wear."
Tang Wulin left a message and decisively went back to his room to change into his school uniform.
From the day the Golden Dragon King's divine core disappeared, Gu Yue's connection with him was completely severed. Seeing Gu Yue and Zhao Xuanzhen growing closer day by day, that youthful flutter vanished without a trace.
With no girl he liked by his side at the moment, Tang Wulin didn't care about what others thought and accompanied Xu Lizhi in wearing Shrek's classic green school uniform.
Le Zhengyu wasn't close to the foodie duo, so he didn't help them change into their school uniforms, and a charming smile graced his handsome face.
Born into nobility, he knew that a banquet would usually end with a dance. The three stunningly beautiful girls of the Moon Star Night were Zhao Xuanzhen's people, so he could only try to make a living with his looks, like a peacock looking for a dance partner.
The clamor of the party suddenly ceased, as if an invisible conductor's baton had been abruptly lowered, and two graceful figures stepped right into the magnificent beam of light at the center of the dome.
The girl on the left has cascading blonde hair, a slender neck like a swan, and deep blue eyes like an endless starry sky. She wears a pure white off-shoulder dress with a flowing, layered skirt that is not bulky at all. Instead, it resembles a waterfall of light, aloof and unapproachable.
The girl on the right has slightly curled chestnut-red short hair, and her long purple dress, which hugs her stunning curves, exudes a mysterious allure. The neckline is adorned with tiny obsidian stones. The dress is tailored to fit her figure perfectly, outlining every curve breathtakingly. Below the waistline, the skirt hem resembles a blooming dark rose.
They walked side by side, their stark contrast of coldness and passion, starlight and flame, instantly captivating everyone's attention.
Before the crowd's amazement had subsided, a halo of light swirled at the entrance, and a beam of light, solemn and condensed as if carrying a divine oracle, slowly moved toward the pair of beautiful people who had stepped in.
The young man stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his proportions so perfect they seemed otherworldly. The formal attire he wore transcended mere elegance; only upon closer inspection could one discover the countless intricate and breathtaking patterns woven with silver thread.
On both sides of the lapel, dragon patterns coiled down from the shoulders, and the lines at the cuffs transformed into angels with outstretched wings. Towards the hem of the dress, the angel wings scattered like a sky full of stars, making him appear like a god descending to earth, exuding both majesty and handsomeness.
His left hand gently guided the girl beside him. She wore a silver dress that exuded nobility and pride, as if it had gathered the clear light of the moon. Silver lace was piled up to form intricate and gorgeous relief patterns, and the thin gauze was shrouded in a light mist, creating a hazy and dreamlike atmosphere.
