Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

Chapter 112 Taking Down Ma Xiaotao

Inner courtyard, dormitory area.

After cleaning the room, Ma Xiaotao curled up on the sofa, covered herself with the blanket, and stared straight at the door.

Today is her birthday, she should be happy.

But she just couldn't feel happy...

Because he didn't come...

"Where did you go? I clearly told you my birthday... you idiot..."

"If you don't come by the time I count to ten, I'm never talking to you again..."

"one……"

"two……"

……

ten minutes later.

"ten……"

Ma Xiaotao counted to ten, but Ye Chen still hadn't appeared.

This brought Ma Xiaotao's disappointment to its peak.

"Never mind, he probably really has something to do..."

Ma Xiaotao tried to comfort herself in this way, but tears kept streaming down her face; she was clearly heartbroken...

She gets injured on every mission, but even when her flesh and blood were corroded by the Blood Infant Soul Master's soul power last time, she didn't shed a single tear.

But now, she really couldn't hold back anymore...

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

Ma Xiaotao's heart tightened, and she quickly wiped away her tears, not wanting anyone to see her vulnerable state at this moment.

However, her eyes were still visibly red.

"Sister Xiaotao, are you there? It's me."

Ye Chen's voice came from the doorway.

"Xiaochen!"

Upon hearing the sound, Ma Xiaotao jumped up from the sofa and ran quickly to the door.

Just as she was about to open the door, she remembered what had happened before, and a sense of resentment welled up inside her.

She slowly stopped, turned around, and said in a calm tone, "The door isn't locked, come in."

"Click~"

The door opens.

Ye Chen quietly walked in.

He thought Ma Xiaotao would pounce on him as soon as she saw him.

But Ye Chen only saw Ma Xiaotao's back, and he also sensed that something was wrong.

"Sister Xiaotao?"

Ye Chen called out cautiously.

"Humph."

Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms and showed no intention of turning her head.

"That idiot, if he forgets it's my birthday today, I'll... not talk to him for a whole day!" Ma Xiaotao thought viciously to herself.

"Um...you're not angry anymore, are you...?"

Ye Chen was speechless, but he still leaned in and put his arm around Ma Xiaotao's slender waist.

"Ugh...what are you doing? Don't touch me..."

Ma Xiaotao struggled slightly, clearly sulking.

However, her strength was very slight, because the evil fire within her was already somewhat difficult to suppress, and at this moment, feeling the cool aura emanating from Ye Chen made her body feel weak and tingly...

Ye Chen knew that Ma Xiaotao seemed to be really angry, so he quickly took out an exquisite jade box and handed it to Ma Xiaotao.

"Click~"

The jade box was opened, revealing the items inside.

Two silver rings, engraved with intricate patterns, rest quietly on the velvet of the jade box.

The one on the left is slightly wider and thicker, with a pattern resembling dragon scales, faintly revealing an icy blue luster and radiating a faint chill.

This was carved by Ye Chen using extremely cold mithril from the far north, a very rare material in Xian Lin'er's treasure vault, which Ye Chen then smuggled away...

On the delicate ring on the right, phoenix feathers are engraved, each feather meticulously carved, conveying a sense of elegance and radiating a warm luster.

The material of this ring is Crimson Flame Black Iron from deep within the earth's veins. It is a rare metal with fire attributes and is extremely precious. Ye Chen also took it from Xian Lin'er's treasure vault... When the two rings are placed side by side, they resemble dragons and phoenixes singing to each other. The gap between them seems to form an invisible, mutually attracting ring.

The chill of the ice dragon and the warmth of the fire phoenix were not in conflict at this moment, but rather a wonderful complement and embrace.

"This...this is..."

Ma Xiaotao instantly covered her mouth, her heart overflowing with joy, which turned into large tears that fell down her cheeks...

Happy birthday, Sister Tao!

Ye Chen gently blew a breath into Ma Xiaotao's ear, then squatted down.

With his left hand gently holding Ma Xiaotao's soft right hand, he slowly slipped the ring with the cold attribute onto Ma Xiaotao's middle finger.

"This ring was specially prepared for Sister Xiaotao. One for each of them. As long as soul power is injected, they can sense the other's location and presence."

Ye Chen briefly explained the ring's abilities before asking, "Sister Xiao Tao, do you like this birthday present?"

"Xiao Chen! Waaah... I'm so sorry... I misunderstood you..."

Ma Xiaotao tackled Ye Chen to the ground, lying on top of him and hugging his head tightly, feeling incredibly guilty.

"I thought...you'd forgotten my birthday..."

Ma Xiaotao pressed her face against Ye Chen's and sobbed softly, clearly deeply moved.

Ye Chen not only remembered her birthday, but also prepared such a precious gift.

She really loved it...

Moreover, it's a ring...

Ye Chen giving a ring, does that mean...?

Ma Xiaotao felt both touched and sweet.

Ye Chen's intentions were just right for her.

Even if it weren't a precious level-four soul tool, but just an ordinary ring, or even something else very ordinary, she would still like it very much and be very happy.

Because it was Ye Chen's gesture, she really liked it.

"Sister Xiaotao is the most important person in my heart, how could I forget her~"

Ye Chen also wiped away a cold sweat. Fortunately, he had the Eye of Boundless Heaven and Earth, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to remember it for a while...

If he really forgets, Ma Xiaotao will definitely get angry, and you won't be able to appease her...

"Mmm... Xiao Chen, you're also the most important person to your sister..."

Ma Xiaotao nodded gently, her heart overflowing with sweetness.

The two were very close at this moment, their body scents mingling and heat surging.

Ye Chen couldn't help but press his lips to Ma Xiaotao's red lips.

This time, Ma Xiaotao wasn't shy at all; instead, she proactively hooked her arm around Ye Chen's neck and responded enthusiastically...

……

……

……

After a while.

Two sets of clothes were scattered on the ground.

The two embraced on the sofa.

Ye Chen leaned close to Ma Xiaotao, gently smoothing her sweat-dampened hair behind her ear, and whispered in her ear, "Sister Xiaotao, I want to..."

"Well……"

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao's delicate body trembled slightly.

"Hmm... why do you always think about these things? At your age, you should be focusing on cultivation..." Ma Xiaotao subconsciously made an excuse to refuse, muttering softly.

But her eyes darted around, avoiding Ye Chen's gaze...

Ye Chen didn't say anything, just stared straight at Ma Xiaotao.

His hot breath kept hitting her flushed cheeks.

Finally, unable to bear Ye Chen's gaze any longer, Ma Xiaotao closed her eyes and nodded gently.

She finally softened...

In fact, she couldn't stand Ye Chen's request at all.

Every time Ye Chen said that, she would subconsciously refuse.

But if Ye Chen pesters her a little, she will definitely agree.

However, Ye Chen always kept his distance. As long as she shook her head, Ye Chen would not say anything more.

And this time...
