Level Forty-Seven: Dugu Yan

The rising sun dispelled the darkness, bringing warmth to the world.

It was daylight.

After a quick wash, Lin Xianxian ran into the next room and dragged Lin Tianyi, who was still sleeping in, out of bed.

Wearing loose pajamas, Lin Tianyi looked at Lin Xianxian with bleary eyes and said weakly,

"Xianxian, let me sleep a little longer..."

Lin Xianxian said solemnly,

"If we go too late, that breakfast shop will be sold out."

Lin Tianyi pulled the blanket over his head, his muffled voice coming from beneath it.

"I'm not getting up. I'm not hungry."

A troubled look appeared on Lin Xianxian's delicate, stunning face. Then her clear, bright eyes shifted, and a sly smile curled her full lips.

She extended her flawless, slender hand and gripped the edge of the bed, Soul Power surging within her.

The space inside the room suddenly rippled violently.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Xianxian and the bed vanished. Lin Tianyi, who was lying on the bed, vanished as well.

"Holy shit!"

"Why did a bed suddenly appear here?!"

"What a beautiful girl!"

At the entrance of That Breakfast Shop, the seven or eight people in the short queue cried out in alarm as they stared at the bed and Lin Xianxian, who had appeared out of thin air before the shop.

Even the clerk selling breakfast was left dumbfounded.

"Why is it so noisy?!" Lin Tianyi poked his head out from under the blanket, squinting his sleepy eyes as he looked around in irritation, like someone suffering from morning grouchiness.

Then he saw that he was somehow no longer in his room, but out in public.

Seven or eight strangers were staring at him and...

His bed.

The displeasure on his face instantly froze. Clever as he was, he understood everything at once.

His neck turned stiffly, almost mechanically, as he looked toward Lin Xianxian, standing prettily beside the bed.

She was looking down at him playfully, saying with a grin,

"Good morning, Tianyi."

With lightning speed, Lin Tianyi yanked the blanket over his head with both hands, then activated Teleportation. Along with his bed, he vanished under everyone's watchful eyes.

Lin Xianxian puffed out her cheeks unhappily, but she did not go looking for Lin Tianyi again. Instead, she walked glumly to the back of the line and queued up for breakfast.

The others stared at the scene in stunned silence, their jaws practically dropping to the ground.

Yet none of them dared turn around to look at Lin Xianxian. No matter how turbulent their hearts were, they had to endure it. Someone that impressive was not a person they could casually strike up a conversation with.

Outside That Breakfast Shop, things outwardly returned to normal, with people lining up to buy food.

At that moment, a beautiful woman walked over.

She had short, dark-purple hair and an exceptionally valiant air. She could not be called breathtakingly beautiful, but she possessed an eerie charm.

Her emerald-green eyes were highly unusual, giving off a somewhat sinister impression.

Without even glancing at the line, she walked straight up to the breakfast shop and said casually,

"The usual. Two portions."

Despite such blatant line-cutting, the people waiting showed little reaction, as if they had long since gotten used to it.

But Lin Xianxian was not about to indulge her. She immediately voiced her displeasure and told the short-haired woman to go to the back and line up.

Upon hearing Lin Xianxian's words, everyone in the queue shuddered inwardly. Delight flashed in their eyes, and they could barely suppress the corners of their mouths.

Was someone finally going to put that overbearing woman in her place?!

Dugu Yan turned around at the words and gave Lin Xianxian an indifferent glance. Her beautiful eyes were cold and sinister like a venomous snake as she said calmly,

"So what if I cut the line? Got a problem with that?"

"We're all lining up. Cutting in is extremely rude."

"So what? Mind your own business. Say one more word, and watch me slap you."

Dugu Yan spoke with extreme arrogance, shooting Lin Xianxian a disdainful, rude sidelong glance.

Lin Xianxian's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. After spending all these years with Lin Tianyi, she had absorbed his influence. When dealing with unreasonable people, the answer was to act first.

If she could beat them, she would. If she could not, she would call for help. Either way, she could not just swallow such humiliation.

So Lin Xianxian made her move.

Her figure flashed, and she instantly appeared before Dugu Yan. Her delicate hand shot out.

Under Dugu Yan's horrified gaze, as her expression changed drastically and her pupils shrank, Lin Xianxian seized her by the slender neck and casually threw her away like a piece of trash.

Thud! Dugu Yan was sent flying by the terrifying force erupting from Lin Xianxian's hand. She hit the ground and rolled several times before coming to a stop.

Dugu Yan scrambled to her feet in a miserable state, her hair hanging over her forehead like a madwoman's. She glared venomously at Lin Xianxian.

The surrounding onlookers were thrilled, secretly cheering, That felt damn good!

"Huh?"

Confusion appeared on Lin Xianxian's tender, beautiful face as she looked at Dugu Yan strangely.

"You're actually this weak?

"And you still dared to cut the line? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?"

Hearing this, anger appeared on Dugu Yan's pretty face. She believed Lin Xianxian was mocking her.

With a Title Douluo grandfather, Dugu Yan had never suffered such humiliation in all her life. She was so furious her lungs were about to explode.

In her rage, Dugu Yan's emerald eyes suddenly turned purple, and she spewed a thick cloud of purple mist from her mouth toward Lin Xianxian.

The poisonous mist carried a pungent, fishy stench that made people nauseated and lightheaded.

This was Dugu Yan's third soul skill, Biyuan Purple Poison. An ordinary person only needed to come into contact with the slightest bit of the purple mist to melt into pus and die within moments.

Seeing this, the rest of the people in line and the shop owner's expressions changed drastically. They hurriedly fled far away, afraid of being touched by even a trace of it.

As the purple poison mist swept toward her, Lin Xianxian raised a hand in confusion and touched the mist that had reached her. Her palm tingled slightly, but that was all.

Having lived and died alongside Lin Tianyi, she possessed all of Lin Tianyi's abilities, including his soul bone skills. Naturally, that also included the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye's ability to fear neither ice nor fire and remain immune to all poisons.

Seeing this, Dugu Yan's pupils shrank sharply again. Terror appeared on her resentful face, and she almost howled in disbelief,

"That's impossible!!!"

Ignoring Dugu Yan, Lin Xianxian frowned slightly as she looked at the poisonous mist drifting before her. She might not fear it if it spread freely, but passersby would not be able to withstand it.

So she raised her right hand. Dense, holy white light surged from her fair palm, like divine radiance capable of healing and purifying all things. In the blink of an eye, it cleansed every trace of purple poison mist from the surrounding air.

Even the air around them became incomparably fresher than elsewhere, and breathing it in made one feel refreshed and at ease.

Lin Xianxian looked at Dugu Yan with some anger.

"Were you trying to kill me just now? If I weren't immune to that poison mist, I would at least have been disfigured and seriously injured. You've gone too far!"

Dugu Yan sneered. "So what if I've gone too far? My grandfather is a Title Douluo. Even the three education committee members wouldn't dare do anything to me. Try touching me again if you dare!"

"Tianyi said never to show mercy to any enemy. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!"

Lin Xianxian's tone turned cold. Her slender hand clenched lightly, and the crimson, translucent Dragon's Roar Sword materialized in her grasp. A savage dragon's roar resounded through heaven and earth, while terrifyingly sharp sword aura filled the air.

Dugu Yan's expression changed drastically. She retreated again and again, her voice carrying a trace of panic and fear.

"You... what are you trying to do? My grandfather is a Title Douluo. Aren't you afraid of dying?"
