Qian Chen went to the living room sofa, and Zhang Lexuan returned shortly after.
" Lexuan, you're back."
" Qian Chen, are you waiting for me?" Zhang Lexuan asked.
"Yes, thank you for helping me with the vice dean's work again today," Qian Chen said.
"It's nothing, there's no need for thanks between us."
" Lexuan, I want to give you something." Qian Chen said, taking out the remains of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
"What is this?" Zhang Lexuan asked curiously.
"This is the External Soul Bone of an Ice Silkworm Soul Beast from the Far North. I obtained it unexpectedly when I Yuhao to the Far North this time." After saying that, Qian Chen took Zhang Lexuan's hand and placed the remains in her hand.
" Qian Chen, this is External Soul Bone, it's far too precious, I can't accept it," Zhang Lexuan quickly declined.
"Hehe, Lexuan, you'll marry me sooner or later, so I'll give you this External Soul Bone as a betrothal gift, okay?" Qian Chen said hastily, afraid that Zhang Lexuan would refuse.
Zhang Lexuan thought for a moment. Since Qian Chen had already said so, she couldn't refuse. "Alright, I'll accept your betrothal gifts."
" Lexuan, then you can absorb it. I'll protect you."
"Okay." After saying that, Zhang Lexuan took Qian Chen's hand and led Qian Chen to her room. "Weren't you going to protect me? Stay here and protect me, don't go anywhere else."
"Okay." Qian Chen nodded, agreeing to Zhang Lexuan's request. He sat down on a chair and said, " Lexuan, start absorbing now. I'll stay with you."
Zhang Lexuan nodded and began absorbing the remains of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. Zhang Lexuan was indeed beautiful, not in a seductive or alluring way, but in a kind of kind, gentle, and comforting way. Looking at her was like healing one's inner wounds. Unbeknownst to Qian Chen, the three Sea of Consciousness forgot their work and all looked at Zhang Lexuan, as if trying to remember every detail of their beloved.
Before they knew it, it was already past midnight. Suddenly, a powerful surge of Soul Power emanating from Zhang Lexuan swept across the entire Sea God Island. Xuan Zi, who was holding a wine jar and was quite tipsy, instantly opened his eyes.
Yan Shaozhe, Qian Duoduo, Cai Mei'er, Xian Lin'er, Elder Zhuang, Elder Song, and other Titled Douluo residing on Sea God Island all sensed it. This was the aura of Soul Douluo breaking through to the Titled Douluo.
Soon, the group left their residence. Exchanging glances, Yan Shaozhe asked, "Who broke through to the Titled Douluo on our Sea God Island?"
"I don't know, there aren't any level 89 Soul Douluo on Sea God Island right now!" Xian Lin'er said with a puzzled look.
"No, she might have obtained some rare and precious treasure." Xuan Zi stated his judgment, " Lexuan, Lexuan, it must be her!"
With Xuan Zi's reminder, the group quickly arrived at Zhang Lexuan and Qian Chen's residence. As they walked this way, Qian Chen noticed the reaction of the Shrek Academy's higher-ups. At this moment, Zhang Lexuan had not only absorbed External Soul Bone also directly reached the Titled Douluo level, so she absolutely could not be disturbed.
The next moment, Qian Chen appeared outside the residence.
" Xuan Zi, Elder Zhuang, Elder Song, and all my fellow disciples." Qian Chen greeted them one by one.
" Qian Chen, has Lexuan broken through to Level 90 and reached the Titled Douluo?" Xuan Zi asked first.
"Yes, Lexuan suddenly broke through tonight and is currently stabilizing her realm." Qian Chen answered truthfully without hiding anything.
"That's good, I see." Everyone said.
At this moment, Qian Chen looked at Yan Shaozhe and asked, "Senior brother, are you keeping the information on the Shrek Academy's Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"
Yan Shaozhe nodded. "Yes, Qian Chen."
"I would like to apply to the academy for a one-time use of my resources to find a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast for Lexuan," Qian Chen stated his request truthfully.
"No problem, the academy also wants to train Lexuan." After saying that, Yan Shaozhe took out the information on Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, but it was the same as the information last time, with no changes at all. Last time there was also a 100,000 -Golden-Feathered Scarlet Eagle, but this time, the information only contained the Virulent Earth Dragon King that Qian Chen had left over from the last selection.
Qian Chen looked at Yan Shaozhe speechlessly and said, " Senior Brother Yan, is there any other information about Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? This Virulent Earth Dragon King doesn't match Lexuan's Martial Soul or attributes at all!"
Yan Shaozhe shook his head. " Qian Chen, I also want more information on Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, but I really don't have any. I advise you to think about it carefully, and you should also try to persuade Lexuan. This is Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring."
"No need. I've made the decision for Lexuan. Lexuan absolutely cannot accept this Soul Ring Soul Ring. Any Soul Ring of any attribute can be considered, but poison attribute must be avoided. For Soul Master who isn't naturally poisonous, absorbing a poison attribute Soul Ring rashly is suicidal. The Dugu Family, a close friend of the Sea God ten thousand years ago, is Dugu Family completely extinct." Qian Chen said without hesitation.
"Alright, you and Lexuan are together, it's up to you two to decide, I won't force you," Yan Shaozhe said.
No one else tried to dissuade her. After confirming that it was Zhang Lexuan who had broken through to the Titled Douluo, they offered some words of blessing and then dispersed.
When Qian Chen returned to Zhang Lexuan's room, Zhang Lexuan's Soul Power had completely stabilized. Having absorbed the remains of the Zhang Lexuan Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, her External Soul Bone was now even more radiant and supple. When she saw Qian Chen return, she walked up to Qian Chen, hugged Qian Chen without saying a word, and then bit his Qian Chen.
Zhang Lexuan didn't bite hard, but Qian Chen still asked in confusion, " Lexuan, what's wrong? Why did you bite me?"
"Because you lied to me. How could you possibly obtain this External Soul Bone Ice Silkworm you casually killed in the Far North? It grants immunity to ice and snow control and damage, even the Ultimate Ice is useless against it. Even Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast can't do that; it would have to be at least at the level of Ferocious Beast," Zhang Lexuan said seriously.
" Lexuan, this External Soul Bone... I..." Qian Chen didn't know how to say it for a moment.
Zhang Lexuan silenced Qian Chen's explanation with her own words. After a long silence, she said, "Some things, you can say if you want to, or if you don't want to say, or if it's inconvenient to say, I won't force you. As long as you have me in your heart, that's enough."
Qian Chen and Zhang Lexuan chatted for a while longer, as the night grew later.
" Lexuan, it's getting late, I think you should get some rest. After we've settled things with the Martial Soul Department tomorrow, I'll go with you to hunt for a Soul Ring," Qian Chen said.
This time, Zhang Lexuan didn't nod. Her face was already flushed red as she said, "I've heard that the stronger Soul Master is and the higher their realm, the lower their chances of conceiving. I'm afraid that in the future, I won't be able to bear you any children."
Qian Chen naturally understood Zhang Lexuan's meaning and said, " Lexuan, I will never let you down."
He immediately shut down his Sea of Consciousness's external perception, then reached out and swept Zhang Lexuan up in his arms. A surge of powerful Soul Power erupted, as if isolating the entire room from the Douluo Continent, cutting off all sound and light.
Qian Chen gently placed Zhang Lexuan on the bed and kissed her.
Within Qian Chen's Sea of Consciousness, all the souls discovered Qian Chen Sea of Consciousness perception of the outside world had been shut down. They had witnessed what had happened and understood what was about to occur.
Electrolux, Huo Yun'er, Golden-Feathered Scarlet Eagle, and Ice Empress silently wished the two well. Qian Renxue felt both happy and strangely disappointed. Only Bibi Dong looked unwell, her fists clenched, muttering under her breath, "That beast."
