"All this is thanks to the help of Sister Lexuan."
Yin Chen turned his eyes to Zhang Lexuan beside him, with a sincere smile on his face and a natural and friendly tone.
"If it weren't for Sister Lexuan, I wouldn't have the ability to hunt Extreme North alone for Soul Ring, let alone hunt Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
This sentence was just an ordinary thank you, but the natural address of Sister Lexuan caused subtle changes in the eyes of several thoughtful girls in the courtyard.
Ling Luochеn's ice blue eyes moved slightly, and his gaze glanced back and forth between Yin Chen's face and Zhang Lexuan's slightly unnatural expression, thoughtfully.
Jiang Nannan's expression also showed a trace of confusion. Her eyes fell on Zhang Lexuan, and the corners of her mouth raised an almost imperceptible arc.
Xi Xi, who had always had no sense of presence, also raised his head and looked at the two of them, while Gu Yuena also frowned.
You know, their Outer Court disciples always call Zhang Lexuan Senior Sister.
Even Ling Luochеn and Xi Xi are both respectfully called Senior Sister. Only Ma Xiaotao is called Sister Lexuan because he is more familiar with Zhang Lexuan.
And now, Yin Chen also changed his name, so they couldn't help but look at him with suspicion.
This is definitely not a matter of name change. Something must have happened during the two people's trip to Extreme North that changed their relationship.
Being stared at by several eyes, even though Zhang Lexuan, as the chief of Inner Court, has a tough mind, he felt a little uncomfortable at this moment.
She could feel the meaning behind those eyes, and her cheeks felt slightly hot, especially when she thought of the charming and embarrassing healing process.
She subconsciously avoided the girls' eyes, coughed slightly, and said to everyone:
"Okay, this mission has finally been completed successfully. We have to go back to the academy and make preparations. Let's take a day off and set off tomorrow."
After saying that, Zhang Lexuan turned around and left the room. His back looked like he was running away.
Beibei looked at Zhang Lexuan's leaving figure and frowned slightly. He always felt that Sister Lexuan's eyes were a little evasive when looking at him, as if with guilt, which made him feel a little baffled.
Ma Xiaotao, who had the highest level of cultivation besides Zhang Lexuan, was also frowning and staring at Zhang Lexuan's back. Although Zhang Lexuan hid it well, she still discovered that Zhang Lexuan was weaker than usual.
It felt like something was hurt.
If you have any questions, just ask them directly. This is the style of Ma Xiaotao. She said hello and left the room to go to Zhang Lexuan to confirm her guess.
Seeing this, the others were also preparing to go back to their rooms to rest. Gu Yuena took a deep look at Yin Chen before leaving.
She doesn't care what happened to Yin Chen and Zhang Lexuan in Extreme North, what she cares about is another thing.
After she came back from Yin Chen, she felt that Yin Chen had an extra breath of Ferocious Beast.
As the master of Lord of Soul Beasts and Ferocious Beast, she is very sensitive to the breath of Ferocious Beast.
That cold, domineering, fierce aura, if she remembered correctly, it was Ice Empress.
And that aura was not contaminated by an accident, but had been completely and perfectly integrated with Yin Chen's soul, blood, and life origin.
This discovery made Gu Yuena frown.
Yin Chen also noticed that Gu Yuena was looking at him wrongly, so he guessed that Gu Yuena should have noticed that he had the aura of Ice Empress on him.
This is also the reason why he did not completely hide the existence of Ice Empress. Just a change in breath can make Gu Yuena suspicious. Although Dragon God Douluo Mu En is not as good as Gu Yuena, as long as he uses Ice Jade Empress Scorpion Martial Soul, he will inevitably be discovered.
The original Huo Yuhao had used Soul Skill spirit Simulation to hide the existence of Ice Empress, but it was still seen by Dragon God Douluo.
He doesn't have any concealment abilities, and he can't hide the past, so he might as well show it openly.
Ma Xiaotao followed Zhang Lexuan back to their room and closed the door behind them.
"Sister Lexuan."
Zhang Lexuan's hand that was pouring water paused slightly. She did not look back, but responded in a steady voice, "Well, what's the matter Xiaotao?"
Ma Xiaotao walked up to Zhang Lexuan in a few steps and looked directly into her eyes.
"Sister Lexuan, are you injured?"
Her tone was unusually certain.
Zhang Lexuan's body stiffened momentarily.
Although this reaction only lasted a moment, it was keenly captured by Ma Xiaotao.
Zhang Lexuan is a little helpless.
She knew that she couldn't hide it from other people, but she couldn't hide it from Ma Xiaotao.
Ma Xiaotao's cultivation level is close to Soul Saint, and his perception is not weak.
The feeling of weakness and mental exhaustion that had not completely dissipated in her body may seem to others to be a normal reaction after a long journey, but in the perception of Ma Xiaotao, the top Power Attack System Battle Soul Master, it was a flaw that could not be concealed.
She turned around, holding the water glass, with a slightly forced smile on her face.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't I doing a good job?"
"Not good."
Ma Xiaotao interrupted her.
"Your breath is very weak, and Soul Power's operation is not as smooth and smooth as usual. Although you hide it well, you can't fool me. You are definitely seriously injured, and it's a very serious kind."
She stared at Zhang Lexuan, with a hint of urgency and concern in her tone:
"What happened? What on earth did you encounter at Extreme North?"
Ma Xiaotao's mind is racing.
She thought, if Eight-Ring Soul Douluo and Zhang Lexuan could be so seriously injured, could they have encountered Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?
When she thought about this possibility, she showed fear.
Seeing the undisguised worry in Ma Xiaotao's eyes, the defense in Zhang Lexuan's heart relaxed.
She really wanted to tell this junior sister everything, tell her the thrilling encounter, tell her what happened to Ice Empress, tell her Yin Chen's incredible adventure.
But, she can't.
The calm and wise eyes of Yin Chen, one gold and one green, appeared in my mind, as well as his trust in me.
Ultimate Ice.
What these four words mean to Ma Xiaotao, Zhang Lexuan knows very well.
Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul of Ma Xiaotao has been suffering from the backlash of Evil Fire. The higher the cultivation level, the greater the risk.
And Dean Yan Shaozhe tried his best to suppress it temporarily.
Ultimate Ice is the only theoretical hope to completely eradicate Evil Fire from her body.
If you tell her now that Yin Chen has obtained Ultimate Ice, what will she do with Ma Xiaotao's fiery personality?
She would definitely rush to find Yin Chen immediately, even if it was just to confirm.
Once this matter breaks out, how much risk will it bring to Yin Chen before returning to the Shrek Academy and before Sea God Pavilion makes a formal decision?
No, absolutely not.
This is to protect the security of Yin Chen.
