Douluo: Bestowing Ning Rongrong in Marriage, Rewarding the Heaven Shading Method

"Are you messing with me? You're already comparable to a Soul Elder."

"Could a three-hundred-year Soul Ring even suit you?"

Ye Xingchen spread his hands, thinking that he had merely reached the Wheel Sea Divine Bridge in the Heaven Shading Method.

His Soul Power had not reached the Soul Elder realm. To successfully absorb a Soul Ring, he had to take things step by step.

Only then could he assemble the perfect Soul Rings and make things easier for becoming a god in the future!

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

Confused, Ning Rongrong scratched her head, unable to figure out what this guy was thinking.

Just as she was about to say more, movement came from the surroundings.

Then, a bone-chilling force silently swept toward them alongside a white mist!

Ye Xingchen's expression turned cold, and he immediately shielded Rongrong behind him.

Glancing around, he summoned a long sword into his hand!

Rongrong's pretty face flushed slightly behind him. Being protected like this made her heart feel warm.

When she saw the sword, curiosity flashed in her eyes.

The blade was about three feet long, with cloud patterns covering its surface. Its sharp edge glimmered with a faint chill!

Rongrong swallowed and instinctively asked:

"You know how to use a sword too?"

Looking calmly around him, Ye Xingchen smiled.

He glanced back at Rongrong and teased:

"Not only can I use a sword, my swordsmanship is superb!"

"Even after three hundred rounds of battle, my golden sword will still stand tall!"

Golden sword still standing tall?

Feeling that something was strange about that, Rongrong stuck out her tongue, unable to tell what nonsense this guy was spouting again.

She glanced around and frowned.

"It should be a Soul Beast..."

"With such a huge disturbance, it's probably no ordinary Soul Beast..."

As soon as she finished speaking, a beastly roar came from the white mist around them.

The next second, a streak of white light shot toward them.

After a piercing metallic clang, the surroundings fell silent again.

"Your Martial Soul... it's simply..."

Ning Rongrong looked at the Ice Thorn floating before her and could not help sighing softly.

"With this defense, you can probably ignore anyone below level thirty, right?"

Ye Xingchen nodded calmly. If they did not judge by Soul Power alone—

With his Wheel Sea Divine Bridge at completion, he was indeed nearly invincible below level thirty-five.

With the Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul, he could even fight a level-forty Soul Elder!

"This Soul Beast is combat-oriented, and it's quite fast too. I wonder how many years its Soul Ring has!"

Leaving those words behind, Ye Xingchen stepped forward with his sword in hand.

Immediately, strands of Spiritual Power spread from beneath his feet like vines, extending in all directions.

As his perception spread, his vision instantly became clear.

Soon, he spotted the Soul Beast beneath a large tree!

"The game has begun..."

Before Ning Rongrong could react, she only heard those words before the figure in front of her vanished without a trace.

Her little mouth formed a small O as she froze for a moment, then cried out:

"Goodness, you've gotten stronger again! You weren't this fast last time!"

"If you add my support, wouldn't you be the fastest man at the same level in the sect?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a series of roars came from the white mist.

Worried, Rongrong scratched her head, then darted into the mist on her long legs.

Within the mist, Ye Xingchen stood with his arms folded and glanced at the Ice Crystal Lion Tiger Beast before him, unable to help sighing.

Judging from the ice crystal atop its head, it was only around two hundred years old—far from what he wanted.

"An Ice Crystal Lion Tiger Beast! Wow, that's a Soul Beast you rarely get to see!"

"Unfortunately... a two-hundred-year Soul Ring isn't very good..."

Rongrong, who had caught up from behind, saw the dying Soul Beast lying on the ground and sighed.

"Let's keep looking. There are already so few Soul Beasts here. Finding a satisfactory one is too difficult!"

Ye Xingchen nodded slightly. After glancing at the Ice Crystal Lion Tiger Beast, he prepared to leave quickly.

But at that moment, footsteps came from deep within the forest.

Then, a man and a woman walked straight toward them.

"Damn it! We spotted this Ice Crystal Lion Tiger Beast first. You're not allowed to touch it!"

The tall woman with wheat-colored skin and a voluptuous figure glanced at the Ice Crystal Lion Tiger Beast before speaking.

Hearing this, the heavily armored man beside her slowly raised the battle axe in his hand and instinctively stepped forward!

"Is this Frozen Forest your home?"

"Just because you saw it, it's yours? How overbearing!"

With her arms folded, Rongrong immediately felt uncomfortable and retorted:

"You saw it, but I didn't see you subdue it."

"We killed it, and now it's yours?"

Hearing that, the wheat-colored woman snorted!

She glanced at the two before her and snapped her fingers.

The heavily armored man beside her suddenly swung his battle axe into a nearby tree!

At once, the aura of a level-twenty Soul Grandmaster burst forth!

"Not convinced? Then let's have a match!"

Ning Rongrong snapped her fingers as well!

But after the snap, the guy beside her did not seem to react.

She turned her head and muttered:

"What are you doing? It's your turn to step up. Why are you standing there?"

Somewhat dumbfounded, Ye Xingchen paused. He looked at Rongrong, then gave a bitter smile and stepped forward.

Glancing at the burly man before him, he spread his hands and looked back.

"Is this really necessary?"

Rongrong put her hands on her hips, nodded, and smiled.

"When you're out and about, a man is a woman's pride."

"At a time like this, you have to stand tall. Come on, I believe in you!"

"Here's a little heart full of love for you. Muah!"

The man holding the battle axe snorted. Seeing the pretty boy opposite him stammering and acting all shy and awkward—

He became somewhat annoyed. With one step, he charged forward with his battle axe!

Pushing off with his heel, he brought the axe straight down at Ye Xingchen with the force of Mount Tai crushing down!

"Pretty boy, instead of flirting with girls, you should think about how to protect yourself!"

Ye Xingchen calmly shook his head as he watched the axe come crashing down at his head.

He did not move a single step, nor could he even be bothered to raise his hand.

Seeing this from behind him, Rongrong covered her ears with practiced familiarity.

"Clang..."

Sure enough, a piercing metallic shockwave rang out!

The result of the battle was obvious at a glance!

Ye Xingchen folded his arms and sighed, thinking, Why bother?

"This... is too terrifying!"

"A top-tier Defense Tool Martial Soul... who are you..."

The wheat-colored woman stared at the scene in disbelief, her heart filled with shock!

This guy had not even moved a hand, yet he had defeated her subordinate. It was simply unbelievable—terrifying beyond measure!

"You country bumpkin, this is an Ultimate Defense Martial Soul!"

"Hmph! Take this worthless Soul Beast for yourselves!"

Rongrong smiled smugly, glanced at the wheat-colored woman, then grabbed Ye Xingchen's arm and left!

The dumbfounded wheat-colored woman swallowed as she looked at her subordinate lying on the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices from the impact. She immediately panicked.

She thought the Frozen Forest was far too terrifying. There were even experts here who pretended to be weak to prey on others!

Shaking her head, she promptly left on her long legs...

Not long after she left, a White-Bearded Old Man quietly arrived.

He glanced at the corpse on the ground, which had already turned into an ice sculpture, and reached out to touch it.

"An Ultimate Defense Tool Martial Soul... that boy is not simple..."

Deep in the forest, Rongrong tugged on Ye Xingchen's arm with a smile on her face. Glancing at the path ahead, she teased:

"With your speed, you count as the fastest man at the same level. Even ordinary Soul Ancestors are no faster than you, right?"

Ye Xingchen: "Do you want your husband to be fast?"

Rongrong's pretty face instantly turned as red as an apple.

She put her hands on her hips, sighed, and said:

"When will you ever be more serious?"

"You can make dirty jokes even about speed?"

Ye Xingchen smiled indifferently and flicked a Sweet Potato Bullet back at her.
