Ye Lingling of the Undying Sect

The next day, Qin Ming took them back to Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

The Shrek Seven Devils' training at the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City had only just begun and would take at least a month.

Su Xing and the others had trained for a month as well!

Afterward, they would rest and recuperate before finally coming to Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

After returning to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Su Xing did not rush to set off for Sunset Forest.

After a month at the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City, his Physical Body Level had reached level 49. Su Xing planned to leave once it reached level 50.

That would ensure his safety to the greatest extent possible.

In any case, the people from Shrek Academy would not arrive so soon. There was still some time.

On the first night after returning to the academy, Ye Lingling, who had just confirmed her relationship with Su Xing, came to his dormitory to cuddle with him!

She lay in Su Xing's arms and chatted with him for quite a while, telling him about herself.

"Brother Su Xing, are you afraid of Spirit Hall?"

As Ye Lingling spoke, her tone suddenly became somewhat uneasy.

"Spirit Hall? Why would I be afraid of them?"

Su Xing answered instinctively.

Then, something stirred faintly in Su Xing's mind, and he remembered something.

He recalled that Ye Lingling seemed to be the descendant of the Undying Sect, one of the so-called Three Earth Sects—a sect that Spirit Hall was eager to eradicate.

War Soul, Undying, and Blazing were the so-called Three Earth Sects.

The Three Earth Sects were three highly unusual sects. Since each sect had only one descendant, their numbers were extremely sparse. Yet even so, Spirit Hall deeply feared them, because every one of their members possessed tremendous potential. Once they matured, even Spirit Hall would be unable to eliminate them.

Ma Hongjun of the Shrek Seven Devils belonged to the Blazing Sect and possessed the Nine Heavens Neon Phoenix Martial Soul. Before he was ten, his father had already been hunted down and killed by Spirit Hall. Even when Ma Hongjun went to train on Sea God Island, he still believed his family all possessed Grass Chicken Martial Souls. That was a lie fabricated by Dean Flender to protect Ma Hongjun.

The War Soul Sect also had only one surviving member, who was within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect: Sword Douluo Chen Xin. Sword Douluo possessed the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul. This Martial Soul was known as a War Soul, and Sword Douluo was its sole possessor. His father had also been killed by Qian Daoliu of Spirit Hall.

As for the Undying Sect, it was easy enough to explain. It possessed supreme healing—so long as someone still had a breath left, they could be healed. That was the Undying Sect among the Three Earth Sects. The only one who matched those traits was Ye Lingling of the Imperial Fighting Team. Ye Lingling possessed the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul. No matter how many Spirit Rings this Martial Soul had, it ultimately possessed only one Spirit Skill: healing.

However, all of that seemed to be original material from the manhua version of Douluo Continent, or perhaps supplementary material for the original novel. Su Xing did not know whether it was true.

He only knew that he had transmigrated into the animated version of Douluo Continent!

So Ye Lingling had asked because Spirit Hall truly was her enemy?

"If Spirit Hall comes after me, Brother Su Xing, will you protect me?" Ye Lingling raised her head, her beautiful eyes fixed tightly on Su Xing's.

"Of course I will!" Without needing even a moment to consider it, Su Xing replied with a smile.

Whether he could or not, this was the answer he had to give at a time like this.

If it really happened, Su Xing would definitely protect her as long as he could ensure they both escaped safely.

So Su Xing was not lying. His answer was entirely sincere!

"Mhm! I knew Brother Su Xing would definitely protect me!" Feeling the utter lack of hesitation and sincerity in Su Xing's words, Ye Lingling immediately smiled happily, burying her cheek in his chest and wriggling with delight.

"You have a grudge against Spirit Hall, don't you?"

Su Xing grew curious. Was Ye Lingling truly the descendant of the Undying Sect?

Hearing Su Xing's words, Ye Lingling's delicate body trembled slightly. She seemed terrified, and even her voice shook. "Mhm. My parents were both killed by people from Spirit Hall. It was only after I fled to the Imperial Capital of the Heaven Dou Empire that they no longer dared to pursue me!"

Then, Ye Lingling told Su Xing about her background.

Sure enough, Ye Lingling was the descendant of the Undying Sect. Apart from her, who had escaped to the Imperial Capital, everyone else had died.

The reason she was still safe was also because Spirit Hall did not dare act openly in the Imperial Capital!

But as long as Spirit Hall found an opportunity, it would definitely make another move against her.

As she spoke of this, Su Xing could feel Ye Lingling trembling in fear!

"Spirit Hall is too despicable. Once I become strong enough, I'll definitely avenge you!" Su Xing held Ye Lingling tightly and said angrily.

"No!" Hearing Su Xing's words, Ye Lingling panicked instead.

"No... Brother Su Xing, I don't need you to avenge me. We just need to hide from Spirit Hall!"

"My parents also warned me never to think about revenge. Spirit Hall is too powerful!"

Ye Lingling looked up at Su Xing fearfully, not wanting him to avenge her.

The fact that Su Xing even had such thoughts already moved her deeply!

Mom, I really didn't choose the wrong person!

"Don't you hate them?" Su Xing held Ye Lingling tenderly. Spirit Hall seemed to have become her nightmare.

"No... I don't hate them! I don't want revenge either!" Ye Lingling shook her head desperately.

"Alright, then we won't seek revenge!" Su Xing continued comforting Ye Lingling. He could tell that she still hated Spirit Hall; she simply did not dare think about revenge!

Because Spirit Hall was too powerful!

Spirit Hall...

Su Xing had not expected this. In truth, he had a fairly favorable impression of Spirit Hall, because most of its members came from ordinary backgrounds rather than noble families or anything like that.

Spirit Hall stood on the side of ordinary people!

Spirit Hall was also the one that awakened Martial Souls for all commoners who were old enough.

Those sects, royal families, and nobles would only awaken the Martial Souls of children within their own factions.

It was Spirit Hall that gave many ordinary people opportunities!

It was just that some of Spirit Hall's methods were indeed far too overbearing.

"Mhm! It's settled, then. We won't seek revenge!" Ye Lingling hugged Su Xing tightly.

"Mhm!"

Su Xing nodded and gently comforted Ye Lingling.

"I... I should go back to sleep!"

Blushing furiously, Ye Lingling hurriedly tried to rise from Su Xing's embrace and flee.

Although she liked Su Xing, she had not planned to give herself to him so quickly.

So she had to leave immediately, or Su Xing might do something to her!

"If you're sleepy, just sleep here. We're a couple now, you know. Sleeping together is something couples have to do!"

But how could the shameless Su Xing possibly let Ye Lingling, the lamb who had delivered herself into the tiger's jaws, escape?
