The hot sunlight shines through the dense woods in the manor, forming sparse golden spots on the walkway paved with blue marble.✊💚 ඏ☆
A gentle breeze blew by, bringing with it a rustling sound of leaves, which dissipated the heat in the south a lot.
Tian Chen walked slowly along the walkway towards the castle in the center of the manor. From time to time, several maids in uniform white silk pleated skirts would bow down to him respectfully.
About twenty minutes later, he came to the huge flower garden in front of the castle. What made him a little concerned was that the Blue Silver King that had been cultivated for ten thousand years in the south of the flower garden was nowhere to be seen.
Suddenly, Tian Chen seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the castle. Just as he expected, a silver-haired girl in a silver-white dress was standing under the pavilion in front of the castle, looking at him with a smile.
The girl's long silver hair almost fell to her waist, fluttering in the wind, and her long, close-fitting dress was blown by the evening breeze, perfectly outlining her slim figure.
A pair of jade arms are exposed, showing off her fair and tender skin, and her beautiful face is dotted with a pair of light blue moist eyes.
"Lingling? Why are you back Spirit City?" Tian Chen was startled for a moment, then subconsciously looked around Ye Lingling to see if he saw Dugu Yan, and then he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.••¤(`×[¤ ¤]×´)¤••
"Yanyan didn't come with you, did he?"
"I was Soul Power who broke through to Level 50 a few days ago, and came back to absorb the Blue Silver King's Soul Ring. Yanyan is busy preparing for the continent-wide advanced Soul Master Academy elite competition in the near future, and I am still in Heaven Dou City. Why, you don't seem to want Yanyan to come over?"
Ye Lingling stretched out his jade hand to comb the messy hair around his ears. He walked up to Tian Chen carefully, wrinkled his nose slightly, sniffed lightly, and then the smile on his pretty face suddenly faded.
"Who is it?"
Although it was just two simple words, Tian Chen could still hear a little emotion in Ye Lingling's tone. Although she was not very opposed to Tian Chen finding other women because of her background, it did not mean that she would readily accept it.
It would be fine if Tian Chen was just playing around, but if it was someone like Hu Liena, then she wouldn't be able to accept it so easily.
Tian Chen shook his head helplessly, hugged Ye Lingling from behind, and put his hands on her smooth belly, "It's Nana, I walked out Slaughter City with her half a month ago, and I just came back today."
Hearing Tian Chen mention Hu Liena, Ye Lingling's delicate body visibly stiffened. After a long silence, he leaned his body against Tian Chen's chest and asked softly, "Then when do you plan to resolve the matter between her and Yanyan? Yanyan is not as easy to talk to as me."
"Don't worry Lingling, it will be solved after a while." Tian Chen smiled slightly, released Ye Lingling from his arms, took Ye Lingling's plain jade hand and walked into the hall on the first floor of the castle.
The floor of the hall on the first floor is entirely made of crystal yellow crystal. It shines brightly under the illumination of the crystal glazed lamp on the ceiling. Between the interplay of light and shadow, a familiar and broad figure at the top of the jade table in the hall instantly attracted Tian Chen's attention.
This man's appearance seems to be in his thirties or forties, but his eyes that are somewhat similar to Tian Chen are extremely deep. He is wearing a golden loose robe, which highlights his aura of a strong man.
It is self-evident that this person's identity is Tian Chen's grandfather, Golden Crocodile Douluo, one of the top strong men in the world.
"You're back?" Tian E looked at Tian Chen's tall voice with relief and waved his hand cordially.
"Come and sit with Lingling. I know you're coming back today, so I've already had dinner prepared."
"Yes, grandpa." Tian Chen and Ye Lingling responded at the same time, and one on the left and the other on the right reached the top of Tian E.
There are a total of more than ten dishes placed on the table, all of which are cooked from various precious parts of Soul Beast's body. The rich aroma overflows, making you feel relaxed and happy.
In particular, the steamed bear paw in the center of the table occupies almost the same area as the table. The diameter of the bear paw alone is nearly one meter. The bear paw is surrounded by a layer of crystal crushed ice, and pieces of bright red and plump fish are placed on it.
Seeing this bear paw with such an exaggerated size, Tian Chen couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Grandpa, judging from the size of this Ice Bear's paw, its cultivation level is at least fifty thousand years old. You didn't go to Far North specifically to hunt down a Ice Bear whose cultivation level was over fifty thousand years old, right?"
"I did go to Far North, just to find that Ten-Thousand-Year Nine-Grade Ginseng King. Hunting that Ice Bear was just a coincidence." Tian E sipped the fragrant tea in the cup without changing his expression, with a calm look, as if he had done an insignificant thing.
Tian Chen brought some dishes to Ye Lingling, and then while eating them happily, he continued to ask questions about his grandfather.
"Then Ten-Thousand-Year Nine-Grade Ginseng King was found in Far North?"
"No, but I did sense a few extremely powerful Soul Beast. If what I sensed is correct, it should be Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. And it's very possible that it's like the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King in the sea to the west of the mainland. is so super Soul Beast." Tian E didn't mean to hide anything from Tian Chen, but when he said this, he couldn't help but give Tian Chen a warning.
"Don't underestimate Far North. The background of Far North is deeper than what we Spirit Hall recorded. It's just because few Soul Master go there to hunt Soul Beast that very few people know about it."
Snow Empress and Ice Empress?
Tian Chen's eyes were narrowed, and there were a lot of thoughts in his mind. However, he didn't have much interest in Far North now. After all, neither he nor the people close to him had anyone with the ice attribute Martial Soul. Naturally, he couldn't take the initiative to make Far North uncomfortable.
During dinner, the grandfather and grandson talked about some things about Slaughter City and how to help Tian Chen restrain his murderous intent. They were enjoying themselves. By the time the three of them finished dinner, the entire Spirit Hall was completely shrouded in night.
The grandfather and grandson walked slowly side by side in the manor. When they came to a Soul Tool street lamp, Tian E suddenly stopped, looked at Tian Chen meaningfully, and then disappeared from the spot.
"Okay, you go back and accompany Lingling. I'm going to the Worship Hall to find your third grandfather and the others. Hongjun is also busy practicing during this time and has been living in the Spirit Hall Academy's student dormitory."
Tian Chen rolled his eyes speechlessly. He didn't know that his grandfather meant something. But his current situation was not very good. He promised Hu Liena to go find her later.
"Forget it, the worst thing is to learn time management." He raised his head and looked at the brightly lit room on the top floor of the Pope's Palace not far away. Tian Chen gritted his teeth, made a decision in his heart, turned around and walked quickly towards the castle.
