While still in mid-air, the leader of the "Iron-boned Ferocious Crocodile" let out a sharp wail, and large amounts of dark red blood splattered out of its bloody mouth.

"Fuck-!"

Zhang Ji, who had just knocked away several thousand-year-old "Iron-boned Crocodiles", subconsciously stopped after taking a few feet, and blurted out two words.

At this moment, he recalled the scene a few days ago when Yang Xueli single-handedly killed the "Unicorn Flame Dragon Beast".

However, Yang Xueli also went through a hard battle and finally won the victory with difficulty, but it was a miserable victory.

At this time, facing a 13,000-year-old "Iron-boned Crocodile" leader, he was able to resolve the opponent's surprise attack so easily, and even used offense as defense to hurt the opponent. The effect was extremely outstanding!

"The spring breeze turns into rain, and sweet rain falls from the sky——!"

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded from outside the battlefield, bringing Zhang Ji's slightly distracted attention back.

Before Zhang Ji could chase the leader of the "Iron-boned Crocodile" who finally showed up but was hit head-on by Yang Xueli, it suddenly started raining.

Miraculously, the rain was light green in color and accurately avoided the "iron-boned ferocious crocodiles" in the field, only falling on himself, Yang Xueli, and his eldest nephew Woma.

As the cool and moist rain drenched their bodies, Zhang Ji and Woma immediately felt that the fatigue brought about by continuous fighting was instantly swept away. The muscles and bone fascia that exerted force, as well as the soul power channels that ran the soul power at high speed, were greatly restored. Even the soul power was faintly restored.

“Ling Yi——??!!”

Zhang Ji looked in the direction where the voice came from. Looking at the familiar handsome face and the increasingly tall figure, he completely forgot to continue attacking the leader of the "Iron-boned Crocodile".

This also gave the severely injured "Iron-boned Crocodile" leader a chance to catch his breath. Relying on the iron plate on his back which was several times tougher than fine steel, he took another blow from Yang Xueli. With the pain on his body and mouth, he fled away without looking back, completely ignoring the thousand-year-old and hundred-year-old descendants of his same clan who were still fighting on the scene.

When the leader fled, the morale of the surrounding "Iron-boned Crocodiles" immediately collapsed and they no longer had the courage and fearlessness they had before. They no longer cared to continue the siege and turned around and ran away.

Faced with the fleeing group of "Iron-boned Crocodiles", neither Yang Xueli nor Zhang Ji and his nephew Woma chose to chase them.

Looking at Ling Yi who was approaching step by step, Zhang Ji looked as if he had seen a ghost:

"Ling... Ling Yi? Is it... really you?"

"Haha~"

Ling Yi held the spirit "Qingmu·Blue Silver King" in his right palm, his mouth slightly curved, and he chuckled, saying: "Why, Senior Zhang doesn't recognize me after just a few days of not seeing you?"

“……” Zhang Ji opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say.

I wanted to ask how Ling Yi escaped from the clutches of the forest king, the Titan Ape, but in this world, everyone has their own secrets. After asking, it would be fine if Ling Yi answered. If he didn't want to answer, or made up an answer to fool himself, it would affect the good atmosphere between the two parties.

After a few moments of silence, Zhang Ji looked at Yang Xueli, who walked to stand beside Ling Yi, looking heroic and holding the "Soul-Breaking Hook Spear", and said to the two of them:

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back..."

More than good, looking at the identical two yellow, two purple and one black soul rings under the feet of Yang Xueli and Ling Yi, which were the best combination, Zhang Ji felt like he was in a dream.

If it wasn't a dream, how did Ling Yi, who was kidnapped by the forest king "Titan Giant Ape", come back safely? He also broke through to the Soul King and obtained a ten thousand year soul ring!

The same goes for Yang Xueli. She looked seriously injured a few days ago. Logically, if she absorbed the ten thousand year soul ring of the "Uni-horned Flame Dragon Beast" in that state, she would most likely be blown up by the violent soul power. But now she looked fine. Not only did she successfully break through to the Soul King realm, her strength also improved by leaps and bounds.

Chapter 342 Strong Shirley

Two days later, at the Scarob Market, a hundred miles away from the Star Forest.

After saying goodbye to Zhang Ji and Wo Ma uncle and nephew, Ling Yi took Yang Xueli to stay at the market to conduct market research.

As a market formed spontaneously by the gathering of soul masters, everything here is oriented towards soul masters.

Accommodation and catering are basic needs and occupy half of the street-facing shops.

What remains are all kinds of shops, some selling various weapons and equipment, some selling various wilderness survival tools, as well as various healing medicines, detoxification drugs and other essential supplies that have occupied 90% of the bottom-end market in recent years.

Of course, if there is selling, there will naturally be buying. For example, the various soul beast corpses, furs, bones and flesh brought out from the "Star Dou Great Forest" by various soul master teams, as well as some precious plants and minerals, etc., are all among the purchases.

A hundred-forged steel knife was sold for twenty gold soul coins; a five-hundred-forged plate armor was sold for one thousand gold soul coins; a portion of "detoxification powder" was sold for one gold soul coin, and "golden wound medicine" and "blood stasis powder" were also sold for one gold soul coin; the body of a hundred-year-old soul beast, the bones and flesh were weighed, and the purchase price of fur ranged from thirty to one hundred gold soul coins; the body of a thousand-year-old soul beast...

Looking at this almost barbaric trading market and the chaotic and unreasonable trading prices, the smile on Ling Yi's face became even brighter.

In such a situation, [Aoki Chamber of Commerce] has great potential!

After finding a shop with a rather bleak business and briefly chatting with the owner, Ling Yi easily bought the shop along with a small courtyard at the back.

This is a shop that mainly deals in acquisitions, because the owner previously used most of his funds to hire a team of soul masters to help his son go to the "Star Dou Great Forest" to hunt for soul rings. As a result, his son and that team of soul masters never returned.

The money was gone, and the son he had high hopes for was also gone. After a period of closed-door mourning, he opened the door to do business again. However, due to the shortage of funds on hand, it was difficult to obtain high-quality resources. In this vicious cycle, the business was getting worse day by day. After more than a year, no miracle happened, and the son still did not come out. Under Ling Yi's persuasion, the owner sadly chose to take a considerable amount of money and go to a quiet and peaceful town to settle down.

Perhaps, the shop owner could marry several wives and concubines in that small town and have a dozen children. Perhaps, the soul master with children is gifted and has a promising future.

After cleaning up the empty shop and the equally empty courtyard behind it, Ling Yi took Yang Xueli out to purchase various wood and stones.

As a versatile person who has mastered skills such as carving, architecture, carpentry, etc., Ling Yi took out a full set of tools from the storage soul guide and renovated the shop and the three houses in the courtyard in just one day.

At night, the moon and stars are sparse.

In the newly renovated courtyard, Ling Yi lay on a recliner he had made and looked up at the starry sky.

In a corner of the courtyard next to it, Ling Yi planted a "Golden Laurel Tree". Nourished by the power of life, it was now growing lush and green. Although the small flower buds had not yet bloomed, they were quietly emitting a faint fragrance.

Not far from the tree is a newly built bluestone well.

On the ground is a silky lawn with each plant of "Blue Silver Grass" full of vitality, and its light blue leaves are as crystal clear as jade.

"The letter has been sent. We will wait for the nearest Chamber of Commerce to receive it and arrange for personnel to come. It will take about seven days, and it should be no more than ten days at the latest..."

Looking at the bright moon like a jade plate, Ling Yi silently thought about the next arrangements in his mind:

'Except for a branch of the Spirit Hall and a group of Knights stationed there to protect the hall, there are basically no major forces in this market. The strongest one is just a Spirit Master family founded by a Spirit Saint who supports them from behind.'

"Sure enough, this is the normal style of painting. There are not so many strong people and masters in this world. I often meet Soul Emperors, Soul Saints, and even Soul Douluo during this period because I have reached a certain level. Just like the protagonists in the original work, they met so many masters and geniuses with outstanding talents. On the one hand, it is required by the plot, and on the other hand, it is because the circle they are in makes it easier for them to meet these people..."

'The real Douluo Continent is just like what I experienced a few years ago, and just like this Scarrob Market, Soul Kings are masters, Soul Emperors occasionally show up, and Soul Saints are the big guys behind the scenes.'

"Those Soul Douluos are either the poster boys of various major forces, or they are the background figures who live in seclusion and serve as background figures."

"As for the Titled Douluo, that is a legend. People talk about it, but in reality, not even one in ten thousand people has ever seen one."

Thoughts emerged in his mind one after another, and Ling Yi's five senses were strengthened again in this quiet night.

He could hear his neighbors on both sides, as well as several shops and hotels across the street, within a few hundred meters. Some of them were snoring, some were drinking, and some were practicing hard.

Similarly, Ling Yi could also hear a graceful figure taking a bath in a huge bathtub in the room on the left behind him.

Even with his extremely sensitive sense of smell, Ling Yi could easily smell the wet water vapor with the scent of flowers.

Time passed minute by minute, the night deepened, and the jade plate in the inky sky cast down a white veil to cover the earth.

"Brother Yi, it's time for you to wash up——"

A clear and beautiful voice woke Ling Yi from his thoughts.

"Ok?"

Ling Yi withdrew his gaze from the night sky and looked back, just in time to see Yang Xueli, wearing a dark-colored dress, standing under the moonlight.

The moonlight makes the skin, which is already as white as snow, even more lustrous and glowing.

The slightly damp hair was simply tied up behind her head, which was Yang Xueli's favorite high ponytail.

The deep black eyes were staring at Ling Yi. She had a palm-sized oval face, delicate and exquisite, with long and slender eyebrows, a slightly upturned nose, bright and juicy lips, and a refreshing fragrance all over her body. Her exquisite body was half-covered by the dark-colored dress, and it was hard to hide her delicate body, as if a fairy had descended to the mortal world and had just finished bathing in Tiannv Lake.

At this moment, Ling Yi suddenly had the illusion that he was the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl was standing in front of him.

However, an illusion is just an illusion. Ling Yi is not the Cowherd, and Shirley in front of him is not the Weaver Girl.

"Brother Yi," Yang Xueli said again, "It's your turn to wash up~"

"No hurry~" Ling Yi shook his head and said with a smile: "Shirley, Brother Yi is thinking about the next arrangement of this store. Wait a minute and I will go to wash up. You go and rest first--"

Logically speaking, given Yang Xueli's long-standing obedience to Ling Yi, since Ling Yi said so, Yang Xueli would definitely nod, and either obediently go to rest or stay by Ling Yi's side.

But, Yang Xueli seemed a little different tonight.

"no!"

Yang Xueli straightened her pretty face and said in a slightly forceful tone: "Now!"

Ling Yi was stunned when he heard this and looked at Yang Xueli with some surprise.

Yang Xueli, who was being looked at by Ling Yi, looked at Ling Yi with a firm gaze with her sharp eyes.

"..."

Being looked at like this, Ling Yi smiled and shook his head: "Okay, now."

As he spoke, he stood up from the recliner and walked towards his room.

The bathtub was made by Ling Yi himself today. The water was drawn from the well in the yard. When he touched it, he found the temperature was just right. It was obvious that Yang Xueli had boiled the water specially for him.

After taking off his clothes, Ling Yi entered the bathtub, feeling the water temperature which was slightly hot for ordinary people but just right for him. A slight smile appeared on his face, and he closed his eyes and took a nap.

"squeak--"

There was a slight sound of a door being pushed open, and Ling Yi, with only his head sticking out of the water, suddenly opened his eyes.

Turning around, he looked at the door that had been pushed open, with a look of surprise on his face: "Shirley?!"

……

That night, Ling Yi reviewed some ancient Chinese textbooks from his previous school life.

For example, in Mr. Wu Liu's "Peach Blossom Spring", "It was very narrow at first, but it was just passable. After walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly became clear..."

For example, Fanchuan Jushi's "Mountain Travel" says, "The stone path is slanting up the cold mountain, and there are houses deep in the white clouds. I stop the car and sit to enjoy the maple forest in the evening, the frosted leaves are redder than the flowers in February."

For example, Mr. Huian's "Reading Thoughts" says, "A half-acre square pond is like a mirror, with the light of the sky and the shadows of the clouds wandering together. How can the water be so clear? Because it has fresh water from the source."

These are all cultural treasures of mankind, knowledge that Ling Yi has memorized deep in his soul and has never forgotten!

emmm...the author knows nothing and understands nothing...

Continue tomorrow, good night everyone~

Chapter 343 A friend

The next day, early in the morning, the sky was bright.

Ling Yi got up early, looked back at Yang Xueli who was sleeping soundly, then leaned over and gave her a light kiss on her smooth forehead.

Because Ling Yi was too strong both in physique and skills, even with Yang Xueli's strength as a Soul King of the Assault System, this movement did not wake her up.

Ling Yi has been consciously exercising his body since he was two or three years old. Later, he developed a series of secret techniques to strengthen his physique, including "Three Farmer's Styles", "Basic Body Building Techniques", "Beast Martial Soul·Xingyi Boxing", the advanced version of "Beast Martial Soul·Xingyi Boxing", and "Liang Yi Fist". It can be said that Ling Yi is the "Titan Giant Ape" among humans. In terms of physique alone, he is no less than the Soul Saints of those powerful Beast Martial Souls!

As for the skills, it is difficult to elaborate on it, as that is another story after all.

Anyway, in Ling Yi's previous life, although he was talented enough, he was still a mortal after all.

In amateur boxing matches, because one has already reached the ceiling of ordinary humans and can no longer improve, using techniques to weaken the opponent's fighting power is the key factor in determining the outcome of the fight.

Ling Yi, who used to be an amateur boxing champion, had the experience of rushing to seven venues in one day. It was his strong skills that allowed him to quickly win and maintain his physical strength. Not only did he not delay the subsequent arrangements, but he was also able to face every opponent in the best condition. This was also the greatest respect that Ling Yi gave to every opponent as an amateur boxer.

Ling Yi left the bedroom in a happy mood, humming a song as he walked into the kitchen, preparing to cook some delicious dishes that would replenish his energy.

After being reborn as a human for 24 years, he broke the "Empty Ring" again. It was a very memorable day for Ling Yi.

The wonderful thing is, yesterday was Ling Yi’s birthday.

I have to say that Yang Xueli is also thoughtful.

……

In the next few days, Yang Xueli, who was stubborn by nature, refused to accept Ling Yi's strength and challenged him repeatedly.

She couldn't accept that she, a Soul King of the offensive type, was defeated by Ling Yi, a Soul King of the healing type, in a hand-to-hand combat.

Unfortunately, the crushing power of hard power is an objective factor, and Yang Xueli’s strong fighting spirit, a subjective consciousness, cannot change the outcome at all.

You can only fight again and again after repeated failures.

Yang Xueli still couldn't accept this result. She seriously suspected that her brother Yi was a soul beast in human form, otherwise, how could a human be so powerful? !

……

At noon that day, Yang Xueli lazily got up from the bed, feeling a little sore and weak in her muscles all over her body, and her starry eyes revealed a hint of doubt about life.

Why does it feel like Brother Yi’s fighting skills are so proficient?
