Douluo: My Martial Soul is the Carp King

"B-But didn't you say before that you wanted to return to the Tiandou Empire?"

Listening to Ye Xiaoran's erroneous answer, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but question.

"Ah? Is there such a thing?" Ye Xiaoran was a little dumbfounded, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have said that to Zhu Zhuqing.

"Oh, that's what I said casually." Ye Xiaoran started to make nonsense, "I didn't know you at that time, how could I tell you everything."

Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly and seemed to realize something when he saw Ye Xiaoran's sudden change of attitude.

"Are you angry?" She held Ye Xiaoran's hand and asked softly.

"No, how is this possible?" Ye Xiaoran smiled, his eyes a little wandering, "I just have other things to do, and I can't go back now."

"Don't worry, we will have a chance to meet again after I return to the Tiandou Empire." Ye Xiaoran said duplicity.

Zhu Zhuqing blinked and saw that Ye Xiaoran's words were insincere, but did not choose to expose him.

After a long silence, she spoke again: "Actually, I can probably guess why you are angry."

"But I'm sorry, even if this makes you unhappy, I must go find him."

"Even if you feel worthless for me, I have nothing to say. Because this is my fate and something I can't escape from in my life."

"No, you don't need to explain this to me." Ye Xiaoran sighed and tried to look up at the hazy sky, "I took it too naturally."

"Anyway, we have to separate sooner or later, and I have no right to interfere in your life. Just do what you want to do."

"If you are bullied in the Tiandou Empire, remember to come to Tiandou City to find me. At least there, I still have some say." Ye Xiaoran winked at Zhu Zhuqing, with a bright smile on his face.

This smile is like clear spring water in summer. A cup of it can wash away all the anxiety.

Looking at the warm smile filling the corners of his brows and eyes, Zhu Zhuqing felt as if his heartbeat had skipped half a beat.

"Oh, oh. I understand." Zhu Zhuqing panicked and put her hair back behind her head, covering her sparkling earlobes that were faintly pink. "Then how long will it take for you to go back?"

"It will be almost two years." Ye Xiaoran replied nonchalantly.

Two years later, he turned 16.If Zhu Zhuqing went to Tiandou City at that time, he would not be able to find him even if he searched through the entire land.

Because he must have run away with Ye Lingxi.

"Ah? Does it take that long?" Zhu Zhuqing raised his head in surprise, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Ye Xiaoran said with a bitter smile.He hesitated for a moment, then continued, "If you really encounter any trouble during the two years that I have been away, go to Tiandou City to find His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire."

"You just need to tell him that you know a girl named Ye and you are her friend. He will be happy to help you."

I'm sorry, Brother Xue, let me pick your wool again.I hope you don’t think that I am someone who values ​​sex over friends...

Ye Xiaoran thought silently in his heart.

"Well, the mountains are high and the rivers are long. See you later. See you someday."

Looking at the blurry figure waving to her in the distance, Zhu Zhuqing had an unconcealable look on his face.

This was the first time she met someone she wanted to truly make friends with, but she separated from him so easily, unable to even say a word to stay with him.

It is said that we can see each other again someday, but in this world, two people who have never met each other before, how much fate do they have to meet again?

In the end, he will just become a passerby.

But this is the limit of what Zhu Zhuqing can do.After all, she couldn't be honest with a stranger.

Even if this person arouses great affection in me.

But at the same time, don’t I know nothing about this mysterious woman?

Whether it is her soul power that does not match her age, her unparalleled appearance, or the aristocratic temperament that is unintentionally revealed in her movements, or even her ruthless skills that have been experienced in hundreds of battles.

These are not things that ordinary people can have.

Zhu Zhuqing still remembered her calm fighting posture and sophisticated techniques when she was subduing him, as if she was dealing with a soul beast that had been waiting to be slaughtered.

At that time, Zhu Zhuqing was really frightened, so he resisted so fiercely.

But he is such a person, but he has a social experience that is extremely inconsistent with the above, as if it is a blank slate.Like a rich young lady who ran away from home.

Couldn't she be a disciple who came from some hidden family to gain experience?

Zhu Zhuqing was making various guesses in his mind, but none of them could be confirmed.

She shook her head, stopped thinking about these messy things, and embarked on her journey to the Tiandou Empire alone.

The place she wanted to go was Soto City, a small city on the border of Tiandou.

That's where the story begins.

……

"Ton ton ton."

Ye Xiaoran took a swig of water, but felt that the cool liquid flowing into his mouth was as bitter and spicy as strong wine.

"Cough cough! Cough cough!"

Because he drank too quickly, Ye Xiaoran suddenly choked and started coughing violently.

It's so unlucky that even drinking water can go down his throat... He wiped the water stains on his face and muttered silently to himself.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he opened the map he had just purchased at a grocery stall outside Xingluo City, and tried hard to identify the location on the map.

The place I am now is here, the capital of the Star Luo Empire... If you want to return to the Tiandou Empire as quickly as possible, you must first cross the Tas Grassland and then pass through the Balak Kingdom, so that you can enter the border city of the Tiandou Empire. Soto City.after that……

The dazzling city names made Ye Xiaoran feel a little numb.He couldn't help but lament in his heart.

It would be great if we could still hitch a ride on those direct caravans in Xingluo City.Alas, it's a pity that Zhuqing said that those caravans in Xingluo City were almost all members of the Zhu family.

Although Ye Xiaoran had the possibility of not being discovered thanks to the Hanhai protective shield, he didn't want to gamble at all.

He would rather spend more money and spend more time than take these risks anymore.

Fortunately, he is not short of money now, which is all thanks to Zhu Zhujun, the second son of the Zhu family.

That kid was really extremely rich. Ye Xiaoran just took a bag of money from the drawer before leaving, which contained hundreds of gold soul coins.This is already equivalent to several months of subsidy for a soul master. With Zhu Zhujun, it is just pocket money that he uses casually on weekdays.

Ye Xiaoran had forgotten that during the time when he was fighting against the Crown Princess of the Heavenly Empire, especially when he was studying at Yuexuan, he was also "spending money like water".Xue Qinghe basically doesn't skimp on his expenses.

It's just that he has been poor for too long and has no idea about money.He didn't know how long it had been since he had used this thing.

After returning to Douluo Continent, Ye Xiaoran realized that he was short of money, and he has not solved this problem until now.

Since there is no need to worry about money anymore, Ye Xiaoran has no reason to wear her women's clothes anymore.He put his clothes back on and resumed his identity as a man.

"Master, can your carriage go to Tas Grassland?" Ye Xiaoran greeted an uncle, a carriage driver, who was resting at the edge of the market.

The border of the Star Luo Empire was not accessible at will, so he could only find an excuse to come to the border and then sneak out through the Vast Sea Protective Barrier.

"Hey, I can! Of course I can!" Seeing that he was coming to life, the uncle suddenly became energetic.He jumped off the horse and asked tentatively, "But there are not many people there, only some nomadic people who have lived on the grasslands for generations. Are you here for tourism?"

"Well, that's about it." Ye Xiaoran kept telling lies, "I have a friend there, and I'm going to be a guest at his place this time."

"Oh, that's it." The uncle rubbed his hands again and said with some embarrassment, "But the journey is long and it will take at least half a month. I'm afraid there will be any inconvenience. Can you pay half of the deposit first? ?”

"No problem." Ye Xiaoran agreed.He is not short of money now.

"Okay. When will you leave, sir?" the uncle asked with a smile.It is not common for ordinary people like him to receive such a big order.

"That's all right now." Ye Xiaoran said after a while.

After all, the nights are long and there are many dreams. Even if there are any flaws, Ye Xiaoran doesn't want to stay near Xingluo City for one minute.

"Okay. Sir, please get in the car and sit tight. I will take you there now."

The carriage gradually moved away, heading towards Tiandou City, which was thousands of miles away.

In this way, Ye Xiaoran embarked on a new journey.
