Douluo Dalu: Start with a Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgement

Chapter 484 Xu Jiujiu's Reward
Ji Lin didn't really care about making a trip to the Far North, but with such a good opportunity, how could he not take advantage of it!
"Sister Jiujiu, it's okay for me to go to the Far North, but is there any reward?"

Ji Lin gave Xu Jiujiu a look that said "you understand."

Xu Jiujiu blushed and glanced at Xuan Ziwen, who was sitting on the sofa in the laboratory drinking coffee without saying a word. Seeing that he didn't look at her, she breathed a sigh of relief, rolled her eyes at Ji Lin, and whispered, "I know, I'll reward you when you come back."

Ji Lin's eyes lit up, and he whispered, "What is the reward? Can you tell me in advance so that I can be more motivated?"

She bit her red lips with her pearly teeth for a long time, her eyes dodged, and she struggled for a long time. Finally, she gritted her teeth and stroked the purple hair beside her ears. Two blushes rose on her snow-white cheeks. She put her red lips close to Ji Lin's ears and whispered, "Haven't you always wanted to have a double? I agree, you can find the other person yourself. No matter who it is, as long as you can convince her, I will accept it."

"Really?"

Ji Lin's whole body trembled, and he looked at Xu Jiujiu in disbelief. The sudden surprise made him unbelievable. He looked at Xu Jiujiu with fiery eyes, staring at Xu Jiujiu's light red eyes.

Xu Jiujiu turned her head away, not daring to face Ji Lin's fiery eyes, and said shyly, "Really."

After receiving the affirmation from Her Royal Highness the Princess, Ji Lin couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. If he hadn't been concerned about Xuan Ziwen's presence, he would have laughed out loud to vent his joy.

Although only Her Royal Highness the Princess agreed, and the other candidate has not yet been selected or convinced, as long as one person agrees, it will be halfway to success! If the princess can agree, the others will be easy to get. Even if Ji Lin carries the Douluo Continent on his back and holds the Douluo God Realm in his hands, he can still suppress the harem.

Ji Lin suppressed the thought of picking up Xu Jiujiu and spinning around, and looked at Xuan Ziwen who seemed like a transparent person, and said: "Master Xuan, don't worry about the rare metals, leave it to me, you just need to make the things for me, without further ado, I will leave now, and the research and production work will be left to you."

Ji Lin couldn't wait to pull Xu Jiujiu out of the laboratory. He had never been so enthusiastic about something before. He wanted to go to the Far North to complete the task immediately and then come back to receive the reward.

Looking at the closed laboratory door, Xuan Ziwen put down the coffee in his hand with a strange look in his eyes. Say it again, he! Xuan Ziwen, ninth-level soul mentor, newly promoted Titled Douluo, in the same room, if you lower your voice and talk, can I not hear you?

I really didn't expect that the princess of the Xingluo Empire would play so many tricks, and even double.! The young people nowadays really don't understand. It's more interesting to study soul guides. Women and the like will only affect the speed of his carving array.

Walking out of this heavily guarded courtyard, Xu Jiujiu's cheeks flushed, and he said angrily: "It's all your fault. Master Xuan is a Titled Douluo. He must have heard what we said. My image! It's all ruined!"

Xu Jiujiu covered her red cheeks with her hands and leaned against Ji Lin with a look of despair. She was full of resentment towards Ji Lin for damaging her reputation. If she had not known that Ji Lin would suppress her forcefully if she went back on her words, she would have probably taken back her words.

When she thought of what she had just agreed to, her heart started beating faster. Although as a princess, she had heard of such things, some nobles even played more wild games, such as unrestrained meetings and exchanges! Anyway, they did whatever was stimulating.

But she had only heard it from others, and when it was her turn, she was still a little nervous, but she had already agreed on impulse and there was no way she could go back on her word. Ji Lin was a carnivore, and Xu Jiujiu, who had raised him since he was a child, knew this very well.

Now she could only hope that the other sisters would be more supportive and not agree to it! As long as no one else agreed, she wouldn't have to fulfill her promise.

Ji Lin didn't know that the princess was thinking about regretting, and said indifferently: "Master Xuan is not a person who would say nonsense. He is just a soul guide. Don't worry, sister Jiujiu, your reputation will not be damaged."

After sending the shy princess back to her room and saying hello to Wang Qiuer and the others, Ji Lin headed towards the Arctic ice field without stopping.

His long-cherished wish was about to come true. How could Ji Lin act so slowly?

Ji Lin flew rapidly in the air, turned into a stream of light, and disappeared into the horizon. This time Ji Lin did not bring anyone with him, as it was more convenient for him to move alone.

Ji Lin moved very quickly towards Dragon City. By evening, he could already see the outline of Dragon City from afar.

Although he knew that the super-large mineral vein was in the north of the Tianhun Empire, near the Arctic Ice Field, Ji Lin did not know the exact location, so he had to come to Dragon City to find out some information.

According to his guess, the 20,000 troops and the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Group stationed outside Dragon City came for this vein. As long as Ji Lin followed them, he would be able to find the super-large rare metal vein.

Longcheng is the largest city in the northern part of the Tianhun Empire. Continuing northward from Longcheng, with Ji Lin's speed, he can enter the Far North in less than two hours, and reach the Far North core circle in at most four hours.

From a distance, Ji Lin could see a vast expanse of ice and snow. Soon, Ji Lin saw the army stationed outside Longcheng and the garrison on the top of Longcheng.

Ji Lin knew that the army came for the super-large mineral vein, not to defend Dragon City. The Sun and Moon Empire’s defense of Dragon City was not strong.

About ten miles away from Longcheng, Ji Lin found a small forest that could conceal his figure and landed there. After revealing his figure, he walked towards Longcheng.

The army had not made any movement yet, so Ji Lin couldn't be anxious. So he planned to go into the city first to find a place to stay, and then follow up when the army outside the city made a move.

It would take a while to walk the ten-mile distance, but Ji Lin was not in a hurry and walked at a leisurely pace. There were no particularly strict guards at the city gate. They just gave him a simple check and let him enter Dragon City.

Walking into Longcheng, the cold air is reduced a lot. With the protection of the city walls, the temperature inside the city is obviously higher than outside the city.

Everything in the city seemed normal. There was none of the depression and devastation that occurred after the city was broken. Although the streets were not crowded, not every household was closed. In this cold northern city, the population was naturally smaller than that of the big cities in the south.

It seems that the strategy of the Sun-Moon Empire has worked, and the residents of Longcheng have gradually let down their guard against the army of the Sun-Moon Empire.

Ji Lin walked forward while observing his surroundings and feeling the changes.

On the top of Longcheng City, there is a simple soul guide position, but there are not many soul guides, and they are guarding here with some ordinary soldiers.

With this level of defense strength, if the Tianhun Empire could divide its forces to attack, one or two regular legions would have a chance of breaking through. However, neither the Tianhun Empire nor the Douling Empire has the energy to do so right now.

Ji Lin did not wander around Longcheng. He quickly found a hotel to stay in. After such a long journey, he needed to rest.

The next morning, after breakfast, Ji Lin left Longcheng in a low-key manner. After leaving the city, Ji Lin hid in a small woods. Sitting in the woods, he meditated and practiced while observing the movements of the Sun Moon Empire's army in the distance.

Looking at the numerous high-altitude detection soul guides above the Sun-Moon Empire's army, Ji Lin gave up the idea of ​​sneaking in to capture someone and interrogate the location of the super-large mineral vein. Even if it was him, facing the Fire Phoenix Soul Guide Corps and 20,000 troops alone, he could only retreat. They could even wear him down to death, not to mention that he was only a Soul Sage now. Although he had a lot of equipment, he only had the combat power of a Titled Douluo. If he really went head-to-head with the army, he would be 100% defeated.

Instead of doing that, it’s better to watch from a distance. Anyway, my purpose is just to track.

With Ji Lin's spiritual detection limit, it would be impossible for him to have any problem simply tracking an army. Unless the Sun-Moon Empire could mobilize all high-altitude detection soul guides and conduct all-round reconnaissance at low altitude, it would be possible to discover him.

The army of the Sun-Moon Empire did not make any movement, and the whole day was still very peaceful. Ji Lin could only endure the loneliness and practice silently in the woods. Although he wanted to go back early to claim his reward, there was no need to rush in when he could just hide away.

Rewards can be claimed at any time, but you only have one life.

He simply periodically used his spiritual power to conduct one-way detection, swept around the Sun-Moon Empire's military camp, confirmed that the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Group was still there in the army, and then continued his practice.

In this way, three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the army of the Sun-Moon Empire finally took action and set out.

Ji Lin breathed a sigh of relief. After three days, his patience was almost exhausted. He almost couldn't help but sneak in to capture people. Ji Lin had to admit the excellence of the Sun-Moon Empire's army. The army set out with little noise and in strict order. The outer troops moved first, the camps were dismantled, the baggage soldiers were responsible for dismantling and reassembling, while the soldiers formed neat rows and marched towards the north.

Soon, Ji Lin saw the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Corps. The Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Corps was just as rumored, with all members being female soul instructors, all wearing red soul guide armor. They were all heroic and also walked on the ground with strict military appearance. They did not have the arrogance of being soul instructors at all, and moved together with ordinary troops.

Ji Lin showed a smile and stood up quietly. He did not follow too closely, otherwise he would be easily discovered. He just needed to follow from a few kilometers away. With his spiritual detection distance, it would be difficult for him to lose track, and he would not be discovered by the high-altitude detection soul guide in the sky.

Only after the army over there had completely set out did Ji Lin follow from a distance. He did not follow behind, but followed from the side, moving forward slowly.

Ji Lin knew very well that once this army discovered that someone was following them, they might change direction and no longer head towards the direction of the super-large metal vein.
