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

Chapter 227 Taking Down Xianlin'er

The two lingered tenderly for a while.

After receiving nourishment from the immortal herb, Wu Feng's physical recovery ability was greatly enhanced, and he quickly regained his strength, and then...

"What, you're coming back again?"

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback.

"Hmph, you've been with Ning Tian for so long, I can't fall behind." Wu Feng snorted and then pounced on him.

Although Ning Tian went first and she went second, she still had to make up for the "numbers" and couldn't fall too far behind.

Ye Chen: ...

It felt strange.

But Ye Chen still satisfied Wu Feng's request.

……

……

……

Ye Chen asked Wu Feng for leave and spent three days alone with him.

After escorting Wu Feng back to his dormitory, Ye Chen also returned to the academy.

However, Ye Chen did not go to find Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong, but instead planned to go to the Soul Guidance Department.

The main problem is that Wang Dong is a bit sharp-tongued.

I really couldn't bring myself to do it, and I didn't know how to eat it.

That dog Tang San is so annoying.

As for Xiao Xiao...

Yes, Ye Chen still really likes Xiao Xiao's ice cream cone.

However, Xiao Xiao is now with Wang Dong every day.

Wang Dong is also extremely jealous. If Ye Chen and Xiao Xiao's relationship deepens, Wang Dong will throw a tantrum and threaten suicide, and Ye Chen will have to spend time coaxing her...

Even though Ye Chen is now at the Spirit Realm, he doesn't dare to break through the wisp of divine consciousness left behind by Tang San.

Just to be on the safe side, let's improve our mental strength a bit more before making any decisions.

Ye Chen would probably attempt to seal the wisp of divine consciousness that Tang San left in Wang Dong's body only when he reached the late or peak stage of the Spirit Realm.

……

Ye Chen went to the Soul Guidance Department to find Xian Lin'er.

"Hmm, it's been a long time since I've gone to play with Teacher Xianlin'er. I wonder if Teacher Xianlin'er will be angry..." Ye Chen rubbed his chin, not too worried.

Because he also prepared the fairy herb for Xianlin'er.

Xian Lin'er is currently at level 94 and is about to reach level 95, thus advancing to Super Douluo.

Therefore, Ye Chen had to send out the immortal herb before Xian Lin'er reached the Super Douluo level.

Giving Xianlin'er a fairy herb after she breaks through her level and using a fairy herb to help Xianlin'er break through to level 95 are completely different things.

That's how women are; they pay a lot of attention to details.

Giving gifts before a breakthrough versus giving them after a breakthrough: the former clearly generates more favorability.

Before heading to the Soul Guidance Department, Ye Chen used the "Boundless Eye of Heaven and Earth" to take a look at Qian Duoduo's location.

Hmm, Qian Duoduo isn't at the academy; she must have gone out.

Old Qian was also a man with a hard life. He managed the Soul Guidance Department together with Xian Lin'er. Xian Lin'er was in charge of research and internal teaching, while Qian Duoduo was in charge of external affairs and also took care of research.

To put it simply, it means frequently traveling for work...

An incompetent husband...

no way.

That's just how honest people are.

Whether it's Ye Chen's past life or this world.

Honest people are only suited for marriage, not for dating. Of course, there are exceptions, but they are rare. In the original story, Qian Duoduo was honest his whole life and never even held Xian Lin'er's hand.

Finally, perhaps guided by a master, Qian Duoduo managed to win over Xian Lin'er with a shameless act of self-inflicted suffering.

Of course, it might not be that it moved them.

Instead, Xian Lin'er was completely disappointed in Yan Shaozhe, and since Lao Qian was an honest man, she simply made do with him.

After all, Soul Masters rely on their bloodline.

Shrek Academy also attaches great importance to this aspect, which is why they have the "Sea God's Blind Date" event.

All the students at Shrek Academy are the most outstanding talents on the continent, with top-notch martial souls and bloodlines. If they can be absorbed internally, the children born in the future will most likely be super geniuses, still able to join Shrek Academy, ensuring its continuous growth...

Therefore, Shrek Academy places great importance on the marriages of its students to prevent their outstanding bloodlines from being lost to outsiders or from being cut off altogether.

Xianlin'er's bloodline is also top-notch, and it will definitely be passed down.

Xian Lin'er's hasty marriage may have been due to Yan Shaozhe's influence, but it could also be due to her mother, Old Song's, urging her to get married.

……

……

Dark as ink.

Shrek Academy's inner courtyard had long since returned to tranquility.

Only the area dedicated to the Soul Guidance Department remained brightly lit.

The massive metal building complex resembled a lurking beast in the night.

The light was particularly intense in one of the core laboratories.

Ye Chen gently pushed open the heavy metal door, making almost no sound.

A strong, unique scent, a blend of metallic and soul power, wafted towards us.

The laboratory was extremely spacious, filled with various sophisticated and complex soul-guided devices, rare metal parts that shimmered with a faint light, and huge experimental tables.

"The familiar taste is back, it's so good~"

Ye Chen took a deep breath, feeling a strangely familiar aura, and felt a slight sense of nostalgia.

Ye Chen, familiar with the area, arrived at the western experimental zone of the laboratory. Through the transparent glass window, he indeed saw that familiar figure...

Xianlin'er was wearing a clean and neat white lab coat, the loose style of which did not completely conceal her curvaceous figure.

For work convenience, her long hair was tied up in a high bun, revealing her fair and slender neck. A few unruly strands of hair fell to her forehead, damp with a little sweat.

Ye Chen's gaze shifted downwards, and he noticed that Xian Lin'er was still wearing her usual black stockings, but she had changed her feet into a pair of relatively comfortable black suede high heels.

In fact, Xianlin'er usually wears flat shoes in the tens of yuan range.

Wearing high heels means that Xianliner has teaching classes or other matters to attend to that day.

At this moment, Xian Lin'er was standing on the experimental table, her brows furrowed, carefully studying a core magic array module that emitted an unstable blue light.

Strands of soul power swirled around her fingertips as she carefully tried to guide the energy circuits within. But each attempt only triggered more intense fluctuations in soul power from the core array, causing its light to flicker and emit a low hum.

Ye Chen possessed powerful mental strength, and coupled with his medical skills, he keenly sensed that Xian Lin'er's condition was not right.

Her aura carried a distinct sense of chaos. Although her Title Douluo level allowed her to maintain basic stability, her exhaustion and inner anxiety could not be completely concealed.

Her eyes were covered with faint blood vessels, and she even had some dark circles.

Although titled Douluo have strong physiques, such problems are not normally possible.

The only possibility is that Xian Lin'er has been under tremendous pressure recently, leading to endocrine disorders. She has even been staying up all night every day without sleeping or cultivating, resulting in extreme exhaustion of her mental energy, which has caused this situation.

Because of her mental health issues, Xian Lin'er didn't even notice Ye Chen's arrival.

Seeing this scene, Ye Chen felt a pang of heartache.

Xian Lin'er is a strong woman who never shows weakness in front of outsiders. As the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, she is unlikely to show weakness either.

High pressure, coupled with a lack of care, is one of the reasons why Xianlin'er became like this.
