Douluo: The Unrivaled Demon Lord

Chapter 141 Returning to Spirit Battle City, Strolling on the Beach with the 100,000-Year-Old Thunder Prison Nether Ray
When they returned to the inner courtyard, Han Ruoruo and Ling Luochen were sitting in the living room chatting.

Upon seeing the two return, both Han Ruoruo and Ling Luochen showed a hint of joy on their faces.

"Ayan, Ming'er, is everything alright?"

Han Ruoruo was the first to stand up and ask.

Shu Yan nodded, indicating that everything went smoothly. Wu Ming then stepped forward with a grin and hugged Han Ruoruo's arm, before telling Han Ruoruo and the other woman about their experience on this trip.

Of course, she didn't mention a word about things like her and Shu Yan spending time alone together. These were her and Shu Yan's little secrets, and she would never tell outsiders unless there was absolutely no other way.

Shu Yan sat to the side, watching the three women play and joke around with a light smile, and was in a very good mood.

His three current girlfriends are all top-tier beauties, and each of them has their own unique charm.

Han Ruoruo is gentle and virtuous, Ling Luochen is aloof and arrogant, and Wu Ming is passionate and fiery. Even he himself couldn't help but envy himself. How could this brat eat so well...?

After a short while, as Wu Ming recounted her experiences with Shu Yan, Han Ruoruo suddenly turned to look at Shu Yan and then asked softly:

"Ayan, now that things here are almost resolved, are you leaving again?"

Shu Yan nodded, then smiled and said:
"I'll be taking you with me this time, Sister Ruoruo. As for Ming'er and Luo Chen, you'll have to stay at the academy. After all, the sea is too dangerous, and Luo Chen hasn't broken through to the Soul Saint level yet..."

Wu Ming pursed her lips, but still nodded slightly.

Ling Luochen felt a little regretful, but still expressed his understanding.

Land-based Soul Masters are inherently inferior on the sea. The ocean belongs to Sea Soul Beasts and Sea Soul Masters. She has not yet broken through to the Soul Saint level and cannot fly, so she is undoubtedly a burden on the vast ocean.

After saying that, Shu Yan looked at Han Ruoruo, who was somewhat surprised, and then said softly:
"This time when we go to the sea, I will first help Sister Ruoruo condense her first soul core to break through to the Title Douluo level, and then I will help you obtain your ninth soul ring."

Han Ruoruo unconditionally trusted Shu Yan, and upon hearing this, she immediately nodded without any hesitation.

……

The next day, Han Ruoruo left Shrek Academy with Shu Yan.

The two moved quickly and returned to Lingdou City that afternoon.

Yu Bingyan, Shu Junyou, and the others were pleasantly surprised to see the two return suddenly. After hearing Shu Yan explain the purpose of their trip, they were even more surprised and delighted. Even the old master of the Han family, who had always disliked Shu Yan, suddenly felt that Shu Yan had become more gentle...

Shu Yan distributed the prepared immortal herbs to everyone in turn. Shu Hongyuan was in the military camp, so his share would be delivered by Shu Junyou personally. After he consumed the immortal herbs that Shu Yan had specially prepared for him, as well as the top-grade Ganoderma lucidum, the ninth-grade purple Ganoderma lucidum, his potential would be stimulated once again. Given enough time, he would definitely be able to become a Limit Douluo on his own.

Yu Bingyan is also one of the biggest beneficiaries of the immortal herb. Her cultivation level was already incredibly close to that of a Title Douluo. In addition, with the Holy Radiance Tear, an immortal herb specially selected for her by Shu Yan, and the essence split from the body of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, after breaking through to the Title Douluo level, her martial soul will definitely be able to evolve from an ordinary six-winged angel martial soul to a holy angel. At that time, Yu Bingyan will directly possess the combat power of a Super Douluo.

The immortal herb that Shu Junyou obtained was also extremely suitable for him. After consuming it, the time it would take for him to break through to Super Douluo would be shortened by more than half. In addition, with the unique dark power of that immortal herb, its effect on Shu Junyou was no less than the sum of two ordinary immortal herbs.

While everyone was overjoyed by the rapid advancement of the two men's cultivation and their acquisition of the legendary immortal herb, Shu Yan subtly explained that he had gained two girlfriends.

Upon hearing this news, everyone was stunned. Immediately, Old Master Han went all out, chasing after Shu Yan, wanting to fight to the death in the sky above Lingdou City. In the end, it was Han Ruoruo who stepped in to stop him, and the old man gradually calmed down. However, the little bit of liking he had finally developed for Shu Yan disappeared completely.

Yu Bingyan and Shu Junyou both looked at Shu Yan with strange eyes. They were both pure love advocates, but they weren't actually that angry when they found out that Shu Yan had two more girlfriends. However, because Grandpa Han was present, they still scolded Shu Yan. Then Yu Bingyan pulled Han Ruoruo aside to talk.

From Han Ruoruo's words, Yu Bingyan learned a brief account of what had happened.

After learning about it, Yu Bingyan was momentarily at a loss for words.

If Han Ruoruo hadn't accepted Wu Ming and Ling Luochen, that would have been fine. She could have given Shu Yan a good scolding and then comforted and compensated Han Ruoruo. But Han Ruoruo had accepted the two of them and even become good friends with them. This put Yu Bingyan, who was not good at these kinds of things, in a difficult position. What should she do in this situation?
Han Ruoruo understood Yu Bingyan's feelings. She chuckled and then said:

“Aunt Yu, it’s really okay. I think things are fine as they are now. At least someone is helping me keep an eye on Ayan…”

"Ruoruo, I'm so sorry to have put you through this..."

Yu Bingyan gently touched Han Ruoruo's cheek, a soft smile blooming on her face. Then, she said with a hint of teasing:

"You shouldn't call her Aunt Yu anymore, you should call her Mom..."

Han Ruoruo's pretty face flushed slightly, but she was prepared in advance, so she wasn't caught off guard.

"mom…"

Hearing Han Ruoruo's soft and sweet voice, Yu Bingyan's smile widened. She thought Han Ruoruo was truly a rare find. With such a daughter-in-law, she really wouldn't need to worry about Shu Yan anymore...

……

Meanwhile, on the other side, Shu Yan was being bombarded with questions by Xue Lin.

As Xue Lin got older, she became more open-minded about some things, and she even thought it was a good thing that Shu Yan was amorous.

Since the main lineage has been passed down through a single heir for a long time, the fact that Shu Yan has more lovers means that he will have more offspring in the future, which is definitely a good thing.

In the end, Xue Lin didn't forget to ask Shu Yan to bring Wu Ming and Ling Luo Chen back to Ling Dou City as soon as possible so she could meet them. Shu Yan reluctantly agreed. No matter what, he would never refuse his grandmother's small request. Besides, bringing Wu Ming and Ling Luo Chen back to Ling Dou City was only a matter of time.

……

After the matter in Lingdou City was largely resolved, Shu Yan spent some time helping Han Ruoruo condense her first soul core to break through to the Title Douluo level. After that, he didn't linger any longer and continued on his journey with Han Ruoruo without stopping.

The main problem is that staying in Lingdou City is indeed a bit of a torment for Shu Yan. Old Master Han is staring at him with a "resentful" look almost all the time, which makes Shu Yan feel uneasy.

Compared to the old man's dissatisfaction and anger, Han Ruoruo's parents were much more accepting. Especially after Han Ruoruo finished talking to them, the two of them accepted the matter completely and did not make things difficult for Shu Yan.

Traveling northeast, Shu Yan and his companion soon arrived at a coastal city in the Douling Empire.

Barefoot on the soft, golden sand, with the sea breeze blowing by, two crabs scramble past under the coconut trees, and a few fishing boats can be vaguely seen on the distant sea, creating a peaceful and tranquil seascape.

"Ayan, come help me with this zipper!"

Shu Yan, shirtless, turned around and looked at the wooden house not far away.

Turning around, he saw Han Ruoruo's shy, pretty face peeking out.

Shu Yan chuckled, then quickly walked into the wooden house and zipped up Han Ruoruo's white swimsuit.

It must be said that Han Ruoruo, after his secondary development, truly possessed a magnanimous beauty. Even the slightest glimpse of her snow-white skin was enough to be breathtaking. The swimsuit Han Ruoruo bought wasn't particularly sexy; in fact, it was among the most conservative of the swimsuits recommended by the salesperson. However, undeniably, even with such a conservative style, Han Ruoruo still exuded a mature and alluring charm when wearing it, making her incredibly eye-catching.

"Sister Ruoruo, I'm starting to think you don't want to wear this out anymore..."

Shu Yan embraced Han Ruoruo's soft, boneless waist, then whispered in her ear.

Han Ruoruo felt a ticklish sensation from Shu Yan's warm breath, and her fair earlobes turned a deep blush. She reached out and pressed her hand against Shu Yan's chest, then said shyly:

"Don't do anything reckless. If you don't want me to go out in this, I'll change back into my long dress..."

"Sister Ruoruo, you need to tell me first what exactly constitutes 'reckless behavior'..."

Shu Yan felt a mischievous urge and moved closer and closer to Han Ruoruo. Han Ruoruo closed her eyes, as if she was about to accept reality and welcome Shu Yan's kiss, but after waiting for a while, she did not receive the passionate kiss she had imagined.

She opened her eyes in confusion, and what she saw was Shu Yan's slightly teasing face.

Han Ruoruo instantly realized that she had been "played" by Shu Yan. Somewhat embarrassed and angry, she pushed Shu Yan away and walked out, huffing and puffing:
"You rascal, you're getting worse and worse! If you don't want a kiss, fine, I don't want one anyway. I have plenty of guys who like me..."

Shu Yan chuckled, then quickly caught up and took Han Ruoruo's hand, never letting go no matter how much Han Ruoruo struggled.

Gradually, Han Ruoruo stopped struggling and let Shu Yan hold her hand as they strolled on the beach.

The azure sky, the deep blue sea, the golden sand and the white seabirds—such a scene often only appears in dreams, but now, this dreamlike scene is truly before their eyes.

With such a beautiful time and lovely scenery, and their loved ones by their side, Shu Yan and Han Ruoruo were both inevitably moved.

"Ayan, wouldn't it be wonderful if this moment could last forever..."

Han Ruoruo's gentle voice drifted on the sea breeze. Shu Yan paused for a moment, then smiled and said:
"Things will only get better from now on. We have plenty of time to explore the beauty of this world. When we've explored this world, we'll go to another..."

Han Ruoruo turned her head to look at Shu Yan, then a smile that seemed to be able to charm all beings appeared on her face:

"Then you'd better try your best, because I, your older sister, don't think I can do these things..."

"I will."

Shu Yan said very seriously that in order to protect everything he cared about, he would move forward regardless of everything, even if what awaited him was a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire.

Han Ruoruo pouted, then continued:
"Okay, stop making that serious face all of a sudden. If possible, I think it would be nice if we just lived our lives peacefully and smoothly like this..."

"Also, cheer up! You and Ming'er must have been having a lot of fun playing outside, right? Such beautiful scenery, and such a wonderful me, doesn't that make you happy?"

As she spoke, Han Ruoruo playfully stuck out her little tongue, giving off a charming and coquettish vibe.

"Of course it's worth it. The luckiest thing in my life is meeting you, Sister Ruoruo..."

Shu Yan chuckled lightly.

"Hehe, I like hearing that... Let's go play in the water, we still have a long journey ahead tonight..."

Han Ruoruo led Shu Yan towards the azure sea, laughing as they ran.

Shu Yan was smiling at first, but then he suddenly stopped smiling.

What do you mean by having to travel at night?

What does this mean? Why can't he understand it?

Han Ruoruo also noticed Shu Yan's strange expression. She scooped up a handful of cool seawater and then rushed towards Shu Yan.

"Okay, just kidding. Let's find a place to rest tonight, and then continue our journey tomorrow..."

Han Ruoruo emphasized the words "take a good rest" with extra force.

The saying goes, "Women are like wolves, forty like tigers, fifty like sitting on the ground sucking..." Anyway, just as Yu Bingyan said before at Shrek Academy, a Han Ruoruo who goes all out is stronger than Wu Ming and Ling Luochen combined, and can barely hold her own against Shu Yan for a while...

……

The night flew by amidst the twinkling of countless stars.

The next morning, before the sun had fully risen, Shu Yan and Han Ruoruo flew together toward the deep sea.

After fully entering the deep sea area, Xie Ji and Tian Meng joined forces to release their mental detection. However, their current goal was not to search for the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, but to find a 100,000-year-old sea spirit beast suitable for Han Ruoruo.

The number and quality of 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the ocean far exceed those on land. This is not only because the ocean is much larger than the land, but also because the competition in the ocean is more brutal and intense than on land. Those who can survive and become the rulers of a sea area are all top-level soul beast overlords.

After searching for some time, Xie Ji made a discovery.

"Shu Yan, there is a 100,000-year-old Thunder Prison Nether Ray 50 kilometers to the northwest. This guy would be perfect for your girlfriend."

“Yes, Ayan, Xie Ji is right. However, this guy is a rare species among sea spirit beasts that possesses the attribute of lightning. Its combat power is stronger than that of a typical 100,000-year-old sea spirit beast. In addition, water conducts electricity. If you plan to fight it, you must be careful. Of course, if you plan to have Xue Di take action, then just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

Tianmeng's voice followed immediately.

A glint flashed in Shu Yan's eyes, and he replied:

"There's no need for Xue Di to take action; we'll handle it ourselves."

"Then you all be careful. The Thunder Prison Ray is a variant of the common ray. This kind of soul beast lives in the pitch-black deep sea all year round, and its lightning attribute is among the top tier of sea soul beasts."

After a pause, Xue Di added:

"Legend has it that this kind of soul beast possesses a trace of pure thunder dragon bloodline, which is what makes them different from ordinary rays. Although we don't know where they got their thunder dragon bloodline, your Yazi Martial Soul can undoubtedly exert an innate suppression on it. I will keep a close eye on you, and if necessary, I will take direct action."

Shu Yan nodded, then called out to Han Ruoruo, and the two headed northwest...
