" Bing Ling!" Qian Chen called out as he entered Bing Ling's office.
"Big brother, you're back! What brings you to my first-grade teacher's office? Big brother, please have a seat," Bing Ling said excitedly.
"Yes, didn't we take Huo Yuhao to the Far North a few days ago to hunt for Soul Ring? We encountered some fortuitous events Far North that were useful to you and Ling Luochеn, so we brought them back for you."
"Oh? Thank you, brother. I didn't expect that Luochеn and I would get a share." Bing Ling smiled slightly.
"Let's go find a quiet place. Call Ling Luochеn, I'll give you..."
"Okay, thank you, brother. Brother, how about my accommodation if we go to Sea God Island?" Bing Ling asked.
"Can."
Bingling then went to find his assistant teacher and explained the situation to Class One. The two then headed together to the inner courtyard of Seagod Island.
Upon arriving at Bing Ling's residence, Bing Ling invited Qian Chen to sit down. Qian Chen smiled and said, "No, no, no, you're too kind. I only moved out of here recently. Let's go find Ling Luochеn and come over together."
"Okay, big brother." Bing Ling chuckled and headed to the training grounds of the current Shrek Seven Devils. Upon arriving, Bing Ling saw Xuan Zi by the training field, munching on roast chicken and drinking fine wine. Bing Ling shook his head and ignored him.
" Xiaotao, Luochеn." Upon seeing her two girlfriends, Bing Ling called out their names.
"Brother Bing Ling!" Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochеn called out almost simultaneously when they saw Bing Ling coming to find them. Then, each of them grabbed one of Bing Ling's arms.
Seeing Bing Ling's appearance filled Dai Yueheng, Chen Zifeng, Yao Haoxuan, and Gongyang Mo with envy. Which of the Shrek Seven Devils wasn't a prodigy of this era? Senior Bing Ling had actually managed to snag two of them in one go, yet no one dared utter a single word of dissent. Even the four of them combined were no match for Bing Ling alone.
"Brother Bing Ling, what brings you here to see Luochеn and me at this hour?" Ma Xiaotao asked coquettishly.
"My elder brother brought back some things for Luochеn and me from the Far North," Bing Ling explained.
"What is it?" Ling Luochеn asked.
"I don't know. My older brother told me to take Luochеn to see him." Bing Ling shook his head; he didn't know either.
"Oh, then you guys go ahead," Ma Xiaotao said with some disappointment. At that moment, she felt a sense of loss, as if she were about to lose something.
" Xiaotao, don't be sad. This time, Big Brother should have brought back some cultivation resources for me and Luochеn. Look, your Martial Soul is already stronger than Luochеn's, and your cultivation speed is faster than hers. You and I also have Martial Soul Fusion Skill, so it's even faster. Look, you're already Soul Saint, Luochеn is still just Soul King," Bing Ling comforted her.
Ma Xiaotao nodded and said, "Okay, you can go ahead."
"Big brother, big brother." Back at Bing Ling's residence, Bing Ling and Ling Luochеn called out to Qian Chen together.
" Luochеn, thank you for staying by Bing Ling's side all these years," Qian Chen said to Ling Luochеn first.
"Brother, Bing Ling is my lover, and I'm very happy to be with her," Ling Luochеn replied.
Then Qian Chen activated his Eye of the Mind and asked, " Luochеn, I have something I want to ask you."
"Please speak, brother."
" Bing Ling and I come from an ancient sect dedicated to sweeping away darkness and evil spirits from the world and protecting all living beings on the Douluo Continent. The opportunity I'm giving you today may change your life. I need to confirm whether you are willing to follow Bing Ling forever, wherever he goes, you will go too, and stand with him forever?" Qian Chen asked.
Ling Luochеn turned to look at Bing Ling and said, "Big brother, don't worry. In this life, I will never fall in love with anyone else. Brother Bing Ling is my lover. Wherever he goes, I will go. I will always stand by his side."
Qian Chen could see clearly into Ling Luochеn's heart. Her love for Bing Ling was genuine, a pure love without any ulterior motives. Qian Chen nodded and took out two crystal-clear ice scorpions from her Storage Soul Tool.
The moment the two ice scorpions were taken out of the Storage Soul Tool, the temperature in the entire room dropped several degrees.
"Big brother, what is this?" Bing Ling asked, both puzzled and delighted.
"These are the remains of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, both Ferocious Beast over 200,000 years old," Qian Chen explained.
Ling Luochеn and Bing Ling were both shocked. Ling Luochеn covered his mouth, which was agape in surprise, while Bing Ling's eyes were wide open.
"Big brother, what's the use of this Soul Beast corpse?" Bing Ling asked, puzzled.
"The remains of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion are treasures. They are both Soul Beast with the Ultimate Ice attribute. Absorbing the Ultimate Ice from their remains can enhance the ice attribute of your Martial Soul, and there is even a certain chance that it will upgrade Luochеn's Martial Soul attribute to Ultimate Ice."
As he spoke, Qian Chen handed the remains of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, Ice Empress, and the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Dali, Dali, to Ling Luochеn, saying, " Luochеn, if you absorb the Ultimate Ice attribute from the remains of these two Ferocious Beast, your Martial Soul should have a high chance of reaching the Ultimate Ice."
"Yes, thank you, brother." Ling Luochеn's eyes were a little red. Brother Qian Chen had truly accepted her.
"Alright, place the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion in your palm, and absorb the remaining Ultimate Ice attribute from their bodies as if absorbing Martial Soul. Also, this is an absolute secret; you must not tell anyone."
Ling Luochеn nodded and immediately found a seat. He placed the Ice Jade Scorpion in his palm and began to absorb the remaining Ultimate Ice attribute on the Ice Jade Scorpion's body, drawing it into his Martial Soul.
Then Qian Chen took out the Ice Empress's Torso Soul Bone. As soon as the Soul Bone appeared, the temperature in the entire room dropped again.
"Big brother, this, this..." Upon seeing such a priceless treasure, Bing Ling stammered.
"Take it, and fuse it!"
"Yes, brother."
After an unknown amount of time, the crystal-clear, ice-sculpted remains of the Ice Jade Scorpion in Ling Luochеn's hand gradually lost their luster and turned into two small green scorpions.
Ling Luochеn opened his eyes. At that moment, Bing Ling had just finished fusing with the Ice Empress's Torso Soul Bone.
On the Shrek Seven Devils ' training ground, Ma Xiaotao was fighting against Dai Yueheng, Chen Zifeng, and Yao Haoxuan. Now that Ma Xiaotao was no longer troubled by the Evil Fire, she could cultivate with peace of mind. Moreover, with the Bing Ling Martial Soul Fusion Skill, her cultivation speed was accelerated. Her cultivation had already broken through to the Soul Saint. Facing a Soul Emperor and two Soul King, she didn't even need to use her full strength to make the three of them run away with their heads in their hands.
Ma Xiaotao withdrew her Martial Soul and laughed loudly, "You three, you still want to practice? You can't even do this much?"
Chen Zifeng said, "Captain, you're already Soul Saint! How can we possibly beat you?"
"Alright, everyone, let's get back to training. In about six months, it will be the new five-yearly Soul Master Tournament. Our Shrek Seven Devils must win the most beautifully and easily in the Shrek Academy's history."
"Yes, Captain!" the five members of the Shrek Seven Devils answered in unison.
Ma Xiaotao glanced at Xuan Zi, who was drinking and eating meat beside her. He seemed to be drunk and had no further plans. Ma Xiaotao had to arrange the training for everyone herself.
Just then, Ma Xiaotao felt a pang of pain in her heart, as if she had lost something most important. This heartache caused a bead of cold sweat to trickle down Ma Xiaotao forehead.
What's wrong with me? Why do I feel so sad?
