Douluo Continent: A Fallen Immortal Descends to Earth, Slaying Gods with a Drunken Sword

Chapter 111 The Soul Master Competition is about to begin; Li Zhexian and Xue Qinghe enjoy a drink together (Bonus chapter, please vote with monthly tickets)

Xue Qinghe reached out his hand.

Gently cover the hand that was covering your eyes.

"Li Zhexian, you're back..."

She tried her best to keep her voice steady.

But it couldn't hide the overflowing joy between the lines.

Before Li Zhexian could respond.

Xue Qinghe then pulled Li Zhexian and led him to sit down opposite him.

Then, she looked at him closely.

With his fair and radiant skin, a simple white robe, and the blue lotus sword mark on his forehead, the young man appeared even more refined and otherworldly.

"You...you seem even more amazing now."

Xue Qinghe said softly.

Li Zhexian's lips curled up as his gaze swept over the mountain of files piled on the desk.

"Have you been busy with the Soul Master Competition all this time?"

Xue Qinghe sighed and nodded.

immediately.

Under Li Zhexian's astonished gaze.

With a flick of her sleeve, she swept all the files on the table onto the carpet.

"While you were gone for a month, I had some fine wines gathered. Let's see if they meet the standards of you, you wine-loving fool?"

Xue Qinghe said.

With a broad smile, he reached for the storage soul tool.

Li Zhexian raised his right hand slightly.

An invisible, gentle breeze rose from the ground.

Carefully place the scattered files back into their original positions.

"You go about your business."

"You can drink anytime, just don't let me interfere with your business."

Xue Qinghe pursed her lips slightly.

His previously enthusiastic expression was dampened by Li Zhexian's two sentences.

Seeing this, Li Zhexian's smile deepened, and he explained:

"Of course I'd like to try your wine."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to the palace to find you."

"I just didn't want to hold you back. The Xue Qinghe I know is a diligent prince."

These words seemed to carry a sense of warmth.

It dispelled the gloom between Xue Qinghe's brows.

Her eyes regained their sparkle, and she picked up a page of the file, slightly raising her chin, and softly hummed:

"Hmph, of course I'm diligent!"

Outside the gate of the mansion.

The pufferfish and the snake spear exchanged a glance, both seeing a deep sense of helplessness in each other's eyes.

Hopeless!
Young Master is beyond saving!
They really wanted to grab that Li Zhexian and ask him what kind of bewitching spell he had cast on the young master!

He can easily fool people with just a few words!

……

Inside the mansion.

So quiet you can hear a pin drop.

Li Zhexian glanced at Xue Qinghe, who was engrossed in his work.

Feeling utterly bored, he paced back and forth in the hall.

finally.

His gaze lingered on the windowsill.

The potted rose bathed in the morning light, and the yellowed grasshopper under the fairy flower.

That Dawn Rose is a celestial flower, so it's understandable that it's cherished so much.

But this little trinkets, which were casually woven, were treasured and kept so carefully...

Li Zhexian's fingers brushed across the delicate flower petals.

He tilted his head slightly.

Their gazes fell back on Xue Qinghe.

This grasshopper, woven from straw, was a gift he gave to Qian Renxue, but now it has appeared in the Crown Prince's residence.

Fortunately, Xue Qinghe was focused on the case files and didn't notice him.

Otherwise, we'd be exposed.

"Sigh, they'll probably realize it belatedly..."

Strange to say.

Xue Qinghe felt the restlessness in his heart quietly dissipate.

The many problems that were puzzling me just now.

At this moment, solutions suddenly emerged one after another, like a spring gushing forth.

She writes with lightning speed and is incredibly efficient.

All government affairs were handled in a short time.

Put down the file.

Xue Qinghe stretched his stiff waist.

Her eyes sparkled.

Subconsciously, I looked for Li Zhexian's figure.

Unexpectedly, when she looked up, she met Li Zhexian's gaze.

My heart skipped a beat.

Xue Qinghe coughed lightly as if to cover up his embarrassment, and said:
"I've finished grading the case files."

The words came out.

Even she herself didn't notice it.

The tone of her voice held a touch of innocent charm.

Like a child who has finished their schoolwork, they eagerly await their family's praise. Li Zhexian's eyes were filled with a warm smile as he generously gave a thumbs-up.

"awesome."

Xue Qinghe's lips unconsciously curled up, then, as if remembering something, he asked:

"Li Zhexian, I intend to hold the preliminary rounds of the Soul Master Competition at the Heaven Dou City Great Soul Arena."

"What do you think?"

Li Bai pondered for a moment.

It seems to follow the original story's trajectory as I remember it.

In the original work.

Nothing unexpected happened during the qualifiers.

He nodded and said:

"Naturally."

"Sigh, you are the Crown Prince, you should make the decision on this matter."

Xue Qinghe gave a vague reply and eagerly began to move the files aside.

Take out the fine wine prepared for Li Zhexian.

He then ordered someone to prepare Li Bai's favorite dishes at the imperial kitchen.

Li Zhexian also smiled and took out the newly brewed Leitan syrup.

The two sat facing each other, enjoying a quiet drink, feeling very content.

A cup of lychee juice goes down my throat.

Xue Qinghe felt a strange tingling sensation spread throughout his body.

Flickering electric sparks danced on the surface of his body, and his hair fluttered slightly.

The alcohol flushed her cheeks.

She gazed at Li Zhexian with sparkling eyes.

"Li Zhexian, you are truly amazing, always able to produce such miraculous celestial wines."

Li Zhexian took a small sip of her wine.

"Your wine has a unique flavor, it's very good."

Xue Qinghe's smile deepened, then he suddenly remembered something and asked:

“Li Zhexian, I know that you enjoy making friends and sparring with masters.”

"Your old friends and acquaintances will all be participating in this Soul Master Competition, and they will definitely be eagerly awaiting your appearance."

"You... really don't want to try it out?"

Li Zhexian paused slightly in the hand holding the cup.

Soul Master Competition...

This is a grand event in the Douluo Continent where each generation of prodigies displays their brilliance.

He competes with the geniuses from various academies, including several like-minded friends.

If you do not participate.

It definitely feels like something is missing.

Just thinking about the seven members of the Royal Fighting Team, it's already a complete setup.

Li Zhexian still thought it best to let nature take its course.

Xue Qinghe keenly noticed his easygoing nature and changed the subject:

"Li Zhexian, in your opinion, how strong is the Royal Fighting Team now?"

Speaking of which.

A look of great interest appeared on Li Zhexian's face.

Because of him.

The Royal Fighting Team's strength far surpasses what it used to be.

Yu Tianheng became more courageous with each setback, and with the help of the Thunder Lotus Elixir he gifted to the Blue Lightning Clan, his strength was bound to improve.

Dugu Yan was even more astonishing, obtaining the Blood Swan Kiss, known as the "most poisonous," and her soul power level even surpassed Yu Tianheng's, firmly securing her position as the top player in the Royal Fighting Team.

Such a Royal Fighting Team.

Even he was quite looking forward to seeing how far they could go.

Li Zhexian thought for a moment and said:

"It should be in the top three, no problem."

"The top three..."

Xue Qinghe began to think that Li Zhexian was somewhat conservative.

Then, recalling the astonishing strength of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, he sighed and felt relieved.

in fact.

To her.

Personally, I hope that Team Royal Fighting can win the championship.

She infiltrated the Heavenly Dou Empire from a young age.

They didn't feel much sense of belonging to the Spirit Hall.

Moreover, this is not only about the glory of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

This is also a significant achievement for the Crown Prince, who also serves as the Vice President of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

But without Li Zhexian personally taking part.

It's extremely unlikely that the Royal Fighting Team can defeat the Spirit Hall Team.

Furthermore, the strength of other strong teams should not be underestimated.

just.

Li Zhexian wanted to let nature take its course.

Xue Qinghe was absolutely unwilling to force him to do something difficult.

……

With the official announcement from the Heaven Dou Empire that the "All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament" will be unveiled at the Heaven Dou City Grand Soul Arena.

The competition is approaching.

This was already a prosperous capital city.

It was a bustling and noisy place, teeming with people.

The entire city was abuzz with the excitement of the eve of the grand competition...
