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

Chapter 114 Soaking in a hot spring with Zhang Lexuan
Ye Chen sensed the lingering imposing aura emanating from Zhang Lexuan and subconsciously took a step back.

But even this small step made Zhang Lexuan somewhat dissatisfied.

"What? Am I that fierce?" Zhang Lexuan came over directly, grabbed Ye Chen's shoulder, and stared at Ye Chen with an unfriendly look.

"No, no, no... Sister is the gentlest~" Ye Chen quickly forced a smile.

"Hmph, that's more like it~"

Zhang Lexuan smiled with satisfaction and gave Ye Chen a hard pat on the head.

Fortunately, there were trees nearby to provide cover; otherwise, if those guys lying on the ground had seen Zhang Lexuan's current state, they would have been absolutely shocked, and at the same time, incredibly envious and jealous...

The Zhang Lexuan at this moment is a completely different person from the cold and ruthless Zhang Lexuan just now.

Zhang Lexuan's strictness towards other inner court disciples was in no way inferior to that of senior titled Douluo like Xuanzi.

If you can't kill them, beat them to death without any mercy.

But when facing Ye Chen, Zhang Lexuan showed all her gentleness, because Ye Chen was her favorite adopted younger brother...

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan seemed to have thought of something and asked, "By the way, where have you been these past few days? You didn't come to Xiaotao's birthday party yesterday, and Xiaotao was very sad."

They celebrated Ma Xiaotao's birthday together. Although Ma Xiaotao seemed very happy, she could still see a hint of disappointment in her heart, obviously because Ye Chen was not present.

"I had to leave for something and only got back last night. It was a bit late, but I still managed to give Sister Xiaotao her belated birthday present. She was very happy with it, and she's already forgiven me~"

Ye Chen chuckled and explained.

Last night he really showed his prowess, feeding Ma Xiaotao until she was completely satisfied. She had no choice but to forgive him.

"That's good~"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still asked curiously, "By the way, what gift are you giving Xiaotao?"

Zhang Lexuan is quite sensitive about gifts.

After all, Ye Chen had given her a very precious gift before.

She also gave Ye Chen a gift... It was a bit strange, but Ye Chen probably liked it.

Speaking of which, her birthday is coming up soon, I wonder what Ye Chen will give her... I'm really looking forward to it...

"Haha~ It's a secret~"

Ye Chen chuckled, deliberately keeping everyone in suspense, and said, "Sister, I'll definitely prepare a big gift for you on your birthday too~"

Ye Chen certainly wouldn't be stingy with gifts for Zhang Lexuan.

Since the time hasn't come yet, let's see if checking in will yield anything good.

If all else fails, just do what Ma Xiaotao did and get a custom-made soul tool; she'll be satisfied.

"Hmph, so mysterious~" Zhang Lexuan hummed softly, but she was extremely excited inside.

Ye Chen followed Zhang Lexuan back to Zhang Lexuan's small courtyard.

Although Ye Chen didn't know where Zhang Lexuan was going, he figured he should just follow her.

And taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Ye Chen quietly reached out and took Zhang Lexuan's slender, smooth hand in his, gently rubbing the back of her hand with his thumb...

Zhang Lexuan blushed slightly and glanced at Ye Chen, but did not stop him.

"Sister, where are we going?" Ye Chen couldn't help but ask.

"Go to a hot spring in my courtyard. I discovered it by chance many years ago. Perhaps because it is connected to the roots of the golden tree, the hot spring has the effect of refreshing the mind and eliminating fatigue. You can experience it."

Zhang Lexuan said with a smile.

"Wow, I never imagined there was such a magical place in my sister's yard..." Ye Chen felt a surge of anticipation upon hearing this.

On one hand, I'm looking forward to the hot springs, and on the other hand, I'm also looking forward to soaking in them with Zhang Lexuan. Zhang Lexuan's intention is clearly to soak in the hot springs together...that's wonderful!
……

Ye Chen followed Zhang Lexuan through the carefully maintained path and arrived at a small wooden house that exuded warmth and was shrouded in white mist.

The warm, humid air, carrying a faint, indescribable fresh energy, washes over you, instantly relaxing your mind.

Just as Zhang Lexuan said, this hot spring seemed to be connected to the roots of the golden tree, containing a soothing power.

Ye Chen was somewhat surprised by this scene. He hadn't expected Zhang Lexuan to have such a high status, with such a large courtyard and such a precious hot spring.

Just as Ye Chen was about to ask, Zhang Lexuan said, "Although this hot spring is in my courtyard, it doesn't belong to me alone. Some teachers come here to relax on weekdays, but they all need to make a reservation. When there is no reservation, this hot spring is exclusively mine."

"That's it~"

Ye Chen felt relieved and was no longer afraid of being disturbed.

Pushing open the wooden door, you'll find a space that isn't particularly spacious, but large enough to accommodate the naturally formed hot spring pool.

Warm spring water naturally gushes from the bottom of the pool. Although it is slightly turbid, it does not appear dirty. Instead, it emits a gentle heat. The steam rising from the water's surface spreads like a light veil, making everything inside the room appear somewhat hazy.

The roof has ventilation holes, allowing a few rays of sunlight to filter through, mingling with the mist and creating swaying shadows.

"This is it." Zhang Lexuan's voice carried a hint of gentleness.

She turned around to face Ye Chen, but did not immediately go into the water.

Ye Chen's gaze naturally fell on Zhang Lexuan. The heat from the hot spring gave her cheeks a faint blush than usual, making her even more charming.

"You go down first."

Zhang Lexuan said calmly.

"Whoa whoa……"

As Ye Chen spoke, he quickly threw off his clothes and then jumped into the hot spring with a "plop," splashing up a large amount of water.

Ye Chen leaned against the opposite bank, turned around, and looked at Zhang Lexuan with longing eyes.

They were obviously waiting for Zhang Lexuan to change her clothes...

"Turn your head away, I'm taking off my clothes, don't look..."

Zhang Lexuan was really shy. She glared at Ye Chen and said coquettishly with a blush on her face.

"well……"

Ye Chen nodded repeatedly, but his gaze was fixed on Zhang Lexuan, his eyes full of anticipation.

Zhang Lexuan: ……

Zhang Lexuan was speechless, but there was nothing she could do but turn around.

However, she also knew that Ye Chen liked to watch, and her going to the hot spring with Ye Chen was partly a way of giving him a little treat...

So she just turned slightly to the side, so she wouldn't see Ye Chen herself and avoid embarrassment.

Soon, Zhang Lexuan took off her last piece of clothing, revealing a set of black lace lingerie and panties clinging to her skin...

Ye Chen's eyes gradually brightened.

Zhang Lexuan was wearing a set of black lace lingerie and matching panties. The black lace had semi-openwork lace trim, and the skin underneath was faintly visible, which was both secretly sexy and elegant.

Her body proportions are almost perfect, without an ounce of excess fat, nor does she appear overly thin; she exudes the power and allure of a mature woman.
