Chapter 131
"Xiaotao, you..."
Hearing these words, Tang Wulin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He clearly hadn't expected the other party to say such a thing. How could this girlfriend of his be so considerate and adorable!
"Why are you being so well-behaved?"
Immediately, he couldn't help but stroke her head, his face full of doting affection.
"Am I? Hehe."
"I think it's just alright."
Ma Xiaotao said noncommittally, a grinning expression appearing on her face.
"But Sister Zijie is so powerful... It will take me a very, very long time to reach that kind of realm."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but look at Zijie with more longing. With the strength of a Super Douluo, how much longer would it take for her to reach that level?
"It will be very soon."
"Our little sister Xiaotao's talent is not weak at all. Let alone a Super Douluo, becoming a god... isn't that also simple and easy?"
Zijie responded with a similarly beaming smile on her face.
Please, having such a good sister is really great, okay! "Everything is thanks to Wulin~"
Ma Xiaotao first nodded shyly, then shook her head, her gaze firm as she spoke.
Without Wulin, she feared she would have been trapped in darkness and evil for her entire life under the influence of the evil fire, unable to extricate herself.
"To say it like that..."
Hearing this, Tang Wulin subconsciously shook his head. How could she say that? Even without him, Xiaotao would still be a beautiful and powerful woman.
It was just that his appearance had taken her strength to the next level, and the path she could walk in the future was wider and further.
"This..."
Zijie, standing to the side, also had a thoughtful look on her face, which made Tang Wulin smile. See, he knew Zijie would think the same way.
"It is indeed Wulin's credit."
What he didn't expect was that after pondering for a long time, Zijie's eyes finally lit up, and she nodded in agreement.
Tang Wulin: "..."
"Fine."
"In the end, I was still misunderstood."
He smiled and looked at the two people in front of him, but he didn't care too much in his heart. As long as he could be well with his girls, that was enough.
"..."
"You little human, your fate is quite full of twists and turns..."
On the other side, Zhang Lexuan, who was absorbing her soul spirit, successfully absorbed the Silver Moon Tiger King as her soul spirit shortly after. At this very moment, in the mental space, the latter couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Except for certain existences like children of destiny, most people can only have one soul spirit in their lifetime. When absorbing a soul spirit, to facilitate the relationship between the two, memory sharing is generally opened.
This also caused it to see those unbearable memories deep in her heart, one by one...
Whether it was her family being wiped out, Mu En happening to arrive late to save her, or being taken by the latter to Shrek Academy and later promised as a child bride to a boy six years her junior, it was all there.
"..."
"Is that so."
Hearing these words, Zhang Lexuan, who had been excited, instantly became indifferent. It was impossible not to be affected.
With these events piling up in her heart, even the least sensitive person couldn't help but feel a wave of sorrow.
"Hey, since we are together now, we are companions from now on, why are you still being so cold?"
"I am a little older than you, call me sister, and we will be good sisters from now on."
The Tiger King clearly had no bad intentions in her heart and said this in a carefree manner. Hearing these words, Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but feel her mood improve significantly.
"Alright, alright, alright."
Zhang Lexuan said with a smile.
Soul beasts really don't have that many twists and turns.
But just thinking that the hundred-thousand-year soul beast in front of her had truly become her partner, she still couldn't help but feel a sense of disbelief. Could someone like her also be favored by the heavens?
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Since you and I can be together, you are worth it."
"How can those unfair treatments be allowed to weigh on you? When we become stronger in the future, we must take revenge properly."
The Silver Moon Tiger King transformed into a dignified woman, her face full of anger, as if it were she who had suffered those injuries, not Zhang Lexuan.
What a joke, now that she and the other party were partners, weren't these matters her own? As for those Old Mu and Old Xuan, if there was one, she would kill one; if there were two, she would kill a pair! What? She couldn't beat them?
Didn't she still have Zhang Lexuan! "You..."
Seeming to sense what the other party was thinking, Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but be caught between laughter and tears, and finally slowly opened her eyes.
"Xiaotao, everyone."
"I have successfully absorbed it."
Her gaze fell on Ma Xiaotao, and then her eyes couldn't help but fall on Tang Wulin, who was with her, also carrying kindness in her eyes.
"Great."
"What level is your strength now?"
Ma Xiaotao had an excited look on her face, looking at the person in front of her, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Level 84."
"The Tiger King also promised me a hundred-thousand-year soul bone. After absorbing it, I'm afraid I can still rise a few levels."
Zhang Lexuan said with a smile. She had already refined her soul power for a long time before hunting the soul beast, and now that she had broken through the bottleneck, her strength had naturally risen to a higher level.
"I gained two soul skills, 'Sorrow of the Silver Moon' and 'Lament under the Moon'... one is an assault type, the other is a control type, both are very powerful soul skills."
Zhang Lexuan continued. In the mental world, she had practiced her eighth soul skill's two abilities countless times, and she couldn't help but feel emotional.
A hundred-thousand-year soul skill, it truly lives up to being a hundred-thousand-year soul ring skill!
With this strength, I'm afraid that even if I face a Titled Douluo now, I wouldn't be afraid at all. When I reach the Titled Douluo level, even a Super Douluo won't be able to do anything to me.
"In the future."
"I will definitely reach the peak, reach the level of Old Mu, and no longer be swayed by others..."
Zhang Lexuan had a look of yearning and longing on her face, murmuring to herself. She could definitely do it!
"Congratulations, Sister Lexuan."
Ma Xiaotao nodded repeatedly. Having also absorbed a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, how could she not know the importance of soul skills? The other party had benefited a lot this time, which was just too great.
"It's just that this soul ring..."
"Using it on me is really..."
Zhang Lexuan felt embarrassed. While thinking this, her gaze couldn't help but fall on Tang Wulin.
How could she not see that the reason she was able to gain the Tiger King's approval was precisely because of him? If it weren't for Xiaotao's man, no matter what, she could never have made a hundred-thousand-year soul beast voluntarily sacrifice itself to become a soul spirit! "Not at all."
"Sister Lexuan's martial soul is the moon, and this Silver Moon Tiger King is probably the most suitable soul ring for you. What's wrong with that?"
Ma Xiaotao looked puzzled and shook her head.
"That is true, but..."
Zhang Lexuan murmured, but this soul spirit should have been given to Xiaotao! "Lexuan, no need to belittle yourself."
"The Matriarch is right. You are the only candidate to absorb my soul ring. If the other party absorbed me, they wouldn't get any powerful soul skills, and besides..."
"She also has her own soul spirit." The Silver Moon Tiger King transformed into a human form and detached from the mental space. Seeing through the other party's thoughts, she shook her head.
She could see that her partner had not been treated with care in the past, which was why she was so pleasantly surprised to receive benefits from others.
But she knew it couldn't be blamed on her. After all, no matter which human it was, facing the wonderful event of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast voluntarily sacrificing itself, it would be hard not to be excited.
"Xiaotao has one too?"
Hearing this, Zhang Lexuan was stunned for a moment, but then the surprise in her heart quickly faded. She had one, and as the Matriarch of the Silver Moon Tiger King, how could the other party not have a soul spirit? "Hehe."
"Sister Lexuan, you don't need to worry. Wulin has already prepared a soul spirit suitable for me. Look—"
Ma Xiaotao gave a hehe smile, immediately calling her Blazing Apricot Fragrance out from the mental space to introduce it to the other party.
But compared to the charming Silver Moon Tiger King, her little red person filled with flames was somewhat underwhelming.
After all, there is a saying: bigger is better for a reason.
"A fire-attribute soul beast!"
Seeing this, the last of Zhang Lexuan's concerns finally vanished. Compared to a soul beast like the Silver Moon Tiger King, a fire-attribute soul beast was naturally more suitable for the other party.
"Wait."
"When did you break through to level 70? Could it be that the hidden danger in your body has already!"
At this moment, Zhang Lexuan suddenly thought of something, and with curiosity on her face, she couldn't help but ask.
She remembered that Xiaotao's hidden danger was huge, and there was a great probability of it erupting at level 70. Let alone absorbing a soul ring to break through to Soul Sage, it wasn't impossible for her to explode and die.
Yet now, not only had she absorbed the soul ring just fine, but it was even at the hundred-thousand-year level!?
"It seems."
"Everything is because of this man named Wulin again."
Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but murmur in her heart.
"This, Sister Lexuan."
"The hidden danger in my body was long ago solved by Wulin, no need to worry. And the Blazing Apricot Fragrance was also found for me by him, of course."
Talking about this topic, Ma Xiaotao's heart started racing, her face turned red instantly, and she said stammeringly.
"Is there a need to be so shy?"
"We've been together for so long..."
Looking at her shy appearance, Tang Wulin smiled secretly in his heart, thinking to himself.
"Sure enough."
And hearing these words, Zhang Lexuan was clearly not surprised at all. For a moment, she felt a genuine curiosity about Xiaotao's boyfriend.
What kind of extraordinary person could do so many shocking things one after another?
"Since the Senior Sister has also absorbed her soul spirit."
"Xiaotao, Zijie, let's go back."
Looking at the people in front of him, Tang Wulin said with a smile, while Di Tian stood to the side feeling slightly awkward, feeling like he was an outsider.
"Di Tian, I'm leaving."
Until the next moment, when Tang Wulin bid him farewell, Di Tian finally beamed with joy. That's right, the Lord still had him, this loyal subject, in his eyes.
Because there was one more person, Zhang Lexuan, on the way back, and Zijie couldn't carry three people at once, the group had to take a slightly slower carriage and returned to Shrek City shortly after.
"Back to the academy again."
After bidding farewell to Zijie, Ma Xiaotao followed her man back into Shrek Academy. As for the side, Zhang Lexuan was of course also there.
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao couldn't wait to find her teacher to show off her achievements today. Now, she had undoubtedly undergone a qualitative leap.
"Most importantly."
"I must tell the teacher about all the things Xuan Zi did, and let him go to the Grandmaster to complain!"
Ma Xiaotao had a serious look on her face. She was undoubtedly very indignant about Old Xuan's previous behavior.
"Senior Sister, Wulin and I are going to find the teacher first."
"We won't be with you!"
For a moment, Ma Xiaotao naturally held Tang Wulin's hand, pulled him to fly into the sky, and headed towards the Inner Court of Shrek Academy.
"Mm-hmm."
Watching their departing figures, Zhang Lexuan smiled and responded, then silently headed towards her own residence in the Inner Court.
"Today."
"Truly a rare day."
Returning to her residence, Zhang Lexuan was filled with disbelief, feeling that everything about this trip was so unreal.
For her, it was simply too inconceivable.
Old Xuan's unreliability was already something she had best accepted, as the other party was indeed like that.
But later, whether it was being hunted by a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, or the hundred-thousand-year soul beast suddenly wanting to sacrifice itself to her, and then the so-called soul spirit method spoken by Xiaotao's husband...
Any one of these things was worth shocking her for a year, and when these things gathered together, her heart was already exceptionally stunned.
With the soul spirit Silver Moon Tiger King, she could be considered to have a more powerful life-saving means. After all, while it brought her great benefits, the person herself was also a top-tier combat force of a hundred thousand years.
Even if the strength she could exert now was less than one-tenth, it was still a trump card enough to save her life at a critical moment.
"Tang Wulin..."
"Xiaotao's boyfriend is truly a dragon among men, and even more unfathomable..."
Zhang Lexuan had many thoughts in her heart and couldn't help but murmur. The other party's strength was simply too powerful.
"So."
"Since Old Xuan is not in the Star Dou Great Forest, and there is no aura of him in Shrek Academy, then..."
"Where could he be?"
Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask.
A high-end restaurant outside the Star Dou Great Forest.
At this moment, Gluttony Douluo Old Xuan was eating a giant chicken leg in his hand with great relish, his face having turned red long ago due to drinking.
And beside him, one dancer after another was showing off their dance moves, full of style.
Old Xuan naturally didn't have much thought about this, but he might as well watch since he had nothing else to do...
"Hmm..."
"Was there something else?"
He suddenly signaled for everyone to stop, his face full of entanglement and contemplation. It seemed he had forgotten a very, very important thing.
But the next moment, he shook his head at a visible speed. Things? What things could there be?
He was a dignified level 98 Super Douluo, a generation of peerless powerhouses, what could be worth worrying about?
"Continue the music, continue the dance."
"I've worked hard for most of my life, what's so big about enjoying myself!"
Xuan Zi had an indifferent look on his face, took another bite of the fragrant chicken leg in his hand, and hummed lightly.
