Douluo Dalu: Start with a Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgement

Chapter 19 Betrothal gift?

Star Forest Mixed Area.

Time passed slowly, and Zhang Lexuan was still sitting cross-legged, still absorbing the energy of the spirit ring. Although with the help of the hundred thousand year whale glue, her physical fitness was already able to barely absorb the hundred thousand year spirit ring without being blown up by the huge energy.

But she still absorbed it reluctantly, with a frown and a look of pain on her face.

Fortunately, Zhang Lexuan finally absorbed it successfully.

Looking at Zhang Lexuan, whose soul power had surged and who had successfully absorbed a 100,000-year soul ring, Ji Lin, who had been guarding beside her for half a day, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After absorbing the soul ring and officially breaking through to level 83 to become a Soul Douluo, Zhang Lexuan opened her eyes and saw the concern in the eyes of Ji Lin who was standing not far from her. Her heart warmed, and she looked at Ji Lin with even gentler eyes.

Feeling Zhang Lexuan's gaze, Ji Lin quickly asked: "Sister Lexuan, how are you? Are you okay?"

"I feel great. Although the process was painful, I succeeded in the end. It is worthy of being a 100,000-year spirit ring. It provides me with two spirit skills and increases my spirit power by two levels."

You should know that the higher the level of soul master, the harder it is to upgrade. When it comes to the Soul Douluo level, each upgrade takes years.

Zhang Lexuan was able to advance two levels thanks to the enormous energy of her hundred thousand year soul ring.

Zhang Lexuan stood up and stretched her body which had become stiff from sitting still for half a day.

Ji Lin walked forward, took out a dagger from his soul guide, and began to dissect the body of the Silver Moon Dragon King. The flesh of a hundred thousand year old soul beast could not be wasted.

This is a high-end ingredient, a delicacy that even the royal family of the Xingluo Empire cannot eat. He must bring it back for his sister Jiujiu to try.

"Sister Le Xuan, you should take some back too. This is dragon meat that is 100,000 years old. You can't eat it normally."

While Ji Lin was working, he called on Zhang Lexuan to join in. The Silver Moon Dragon King was huge and would be enough for him to eat for a long time.

Zhang Lexuan smiled and shook her head, then stepped forward to take out tools to help.

Suddenly, Ji Lin took out a soul bone emitting silver light from the body of the Silver Moon Dragon King, looked at it, and handed it to Zhang Lexuan beside him.

"I almost forgot that a hundred thousand year soul beast must produce a hundred thousand year soul bone. Sister Le Xuan, I'll give you this soul bone. The soul rings and soul bones from the same soul beast are best absorbed by the same person."

Zhang Lexuan shook her head and refused, "If it weren't for you, I would have died in the mouth of the Silver Moon Dragon King, and you allowed me to absorb its spirit ring. I don't know how to repay you. How can I accept this 100,000-year spirit bone? It's better for His Majesty the Red Kite and you to accept this spirit bone."

Chi Yuan, who was leaning against a tree with his arms folded, shook his head and said, "I don't need it. The attributes are not compatible, and I already have a soul bone."

Ji Lin also hurriedly said: "This soul bone and I have different attributes. The most suitable one is you, Sister Le Xuan, who has the same attributes as it. Moreover, this is a torso bone. I already have a better torso bone waiting for me to absorb."

Seeing that Ji Lin and Chi Yuan both didn't need this soul bone, Zhang Lexuan was surprised but shook her head and refused.

"I have gained enough benefits this time. You don't need them, but there will always be people around you who need them. At worst, you can exchange them for other natural treasures. There will always be a time when they will be useful."

Seeing Zhang Lexuan being so stubborn, Ji Lin's eyes turned and he had an idea in his mind.

"Sister Le Xuan, you accept this soul bone, along with the 100,000-year whale glue and 100,000-year soul ring, as my betrothal gift to you. When I come of age, you will marry me, okay?"

When Ji Lin said this, Zhang Lexuan was immediately confused. Her pretty face was slightly red, and she said in a panic: "What are you talking about! Xiaolin, you are still young, and I am more than ten years older than you! We are not suitable."

Ji Lin also became serious at this time. He stared into Zhang Lexuan's eyes and said word by word: "Sister Lexuan, I am serious and I will be responsible."

Zhang Lexuan froze up. She knew what Ji Lin meant. He would be responsible for what happened in the cave. Thinking of this, she felt warm in her heart and was very moved, but she was still a little conflicted.

"But you're still too young. The age gap between us is too big."

Zhang Lexuan's tone was a little low.

Ji Lin smiled nonchalantly.

"Sister Le Xuan, we are both destined to be Titled Douluo in the future, with lifespans of hundreds of years. After a hundred years, we will both be over a hundred years old, so there will be no so-called age gap."

Seeing Ji Lin so sincere and serious, Zhang Lexuan took a deep breath, calmed down, and then smiled and said, "Okay, since you said so, I will accept your betrothal gift first. If you regret it in the future, I will not return it to you!"

What happened in the cave before has made her think through many things. The hero saving the beauty is old-fashioned, but it works. In addition, she and Ji Lin had an intimate relationship by accident, so she accepted Ji Lin's betrothal gift.

Seeing Zhang Lexuan taking the soul bone from his hand, Ji Lin almost jumped up with joy. He knew that Zhang Lexuan accepted him, and as long as he came of age, he could immediately marry a goddess-like wife.

As for Xu Jiujiu, Ji Lin could only find a way to appease him later. He had confidence.

Although Douluo Continent was called the Continent of Love in the previous life, in fact, Douluo Continent is not a monogamous society. White Tiger Duke Dai Hao has more than one wife, otherwise there would not be Huo Yuhao and Dai Luoli. Star Luo Emperor Xu Jiawei must also have more than one wife.

Just think about it, the martial spirits in Douluo Continent are inherited through blood. If a powerful martial spirit wants to be passed down, it needs to branch out. One wife is not enough.

Xu Jiujiu, who comes from a royal family, knows better than Ji Lin, so there is no need to worry.

After that, you just have to do Zhang Lexuan's job well. She is more difficult to deal with than Xu Jiujiu.

And Ji Lin’s ambitions don’t stop there. Marrying a few more beautiful wives is nothing. He also wants to become a god, and take his wives with him to become gods, and live forever together.

Therefore, Ji Lin had sent people to monitor the White Tiger Duke's Mansion early in the morning. As long as Huo Yuhao escaped from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, it would be time for him to take action.

He wanted to try to intercept the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and become a god. Before the treasure chest system produced any useful treasures, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was the most likely helper in his journey to godhood.

Whether inheriting the throne of god or creating one's own, the million-year soul ring and origin of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm are indispensable.

The biggest variable is that he is not a spiritual martial soul. Although his mental power is strong, far beyond that of ordinary soul masters, and is not inferior to spiritual soul masters, he is not a spiritual soul, so the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm may not choose him as its host.

As for killing Huo Yuhao in advance and eliminating the competitor, Ji Lin was not so despicable as to do so. He had no grudges against Huo Yuhao, and he had no burden in his heart to snatch future opportunities from Huo Yuhao, because as long as Huo Yuhao didn't get them, they didn't belong to him. They were ownerless, and it wouldn't count as snatching them away.

So he would not kill Huo Yuhao, he would just take a step ahead of Huo Yuhao to see if he could intercept the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.

If he can, that would be great, but if he can’t, he won’t force it.

He believed that even without the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, he could become a god with the treasure chest system.
