Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Heavenly Dao Umbrella, Seven Kills Annihilation

Chapter 78 Buy One Get One Free, the Golden Retriever Gets Lost

"Madam Ye, please rise. You don't need to worry about these mundane formalities in front of me. From now on, just call me Xiao Nian. My teacher also likes to call me that." Jiang Nian helped the two women up, his smile almost impossible to hide.

He was overjoyed to find two treasures as soon as he stepped outside.

When luck comes, nothing can stop it.

A top-tier healing-type martial soul, buy one get one free.

If the teacher finds out... never mind, it's best to try to minimize their contact.

We need to go back and discuss this matter slowly.

“Your Highness, how can this be allowed…” Ye Wanqing shook her head, her attitude firm.

Then she ruffled Ye Lingling's hair: "How about I let my daughter call her that..."

Jiang Nian nodded, his expression indifferent.

It's just a title; it can change at any time.

Just like Bibi Dong forced him to call Wa Xuedi by the nickname he liked to use.

Just thinking about it is painful.

I was really forced into this situation!

"Brother Holy Son, what are you planning to do this time?" Ye Lingling leaned closer and asked curiously.

"It's simply about traveling across the continent and broadening my horizons."

Ye Lingling suddenly realized what was going on and picked up the roasted meat in her hand, eating it in small bites.

hmm~
good to eat!

The little girl was probably starving; she didn't care about her appearance while eating.

Ye Wanqing was much more ladylike, with her legs together, her buttocks raised and her stomach tucked in, behaving elegantly.

The three of them sat around the campfire, talking.

Jiang Nian's way of speaking sometimes made her feel dazed.

Unfortunately... I'm almost thirty years old, already in the state of being an old hag.

If I were ten years younger...

Ye Wanqing rubbed her legs together, lowered her eyes, and seemed to be thinking about something.

Half an hour later.

Ye Lingling's eyelids were drooping, and Jiang Nian suggested that she go sleep in his tent.

"Your Highness, my daughter and I..."

"No need to be so polite, Madam Ye, please let her go to sleep first."

"Well... okay."

soon.

Ye Lingling lay in the tent that Jiang Nian had already set up, looking around as her heart pounded.

I don’t know if it was the cold wind, but her cheeks were hot and red.

"It smells so good..."

"Jiang Nian's blanket smells so good..."

Ye Lingling tilted her head and blinked her bright, watery eyes. Gradually, her eyelids began to droop, and she slowly drifted off to sleep.

···
“Madam Ye, you are now level 60... How about this, tomorrow we will stop at the town ahead, and then I will take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts.”

Ye Wanqing: "?"

Is this right?
A level 54 character carrying a level 60 Soul Hunter... that sounds ridiculously absurd...

For a moment, she didn't know how to reply.

"Your Highness, I wish to absorb soul beasts aged between 20,000 and 30,000 years. Generally speaking, even Soul Emperors find it difficult to hunt them down..."

"Don't worry, since I said I would, I can definitely help you hunt it."

Ye Wanqing nodded, then suddenly slapped her forehead.

Yes, how could the Holy Son not be accompanied by powerful figures when he goes out in secret?

Even if they are in real danger, they will definitely come to their rescue.

"I'll trouble you, Your Highness!" Ye Wanqing stood up and bowed deeply, though she wasn't sure if Jiang Nian had misread her.

He seemed to have spotted the basketball bouncing.

How terrifying! If Prime Minister Cao were here, I'm afraid we would repeat the same mistake...
After admiring it for a couple of seconds, Jiang Nian turned his head away to think about other things.

······
"No way, our Holy Son just stepped out and already recruited the Ye family of the Nine-Heart Begonia? You must be joking..."

"Old Ghost, do you think we should tell His Holiness the Pope about this?"

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"I don't think... those two women are the kind the Pope described. Let's just forget about it... the Holy Son hasn't been out for very long after all..."

"I also think it's best not to report it for now..."

Yue Guan looked at the two people chatting by the campfire in the distance and felt rather good.

Looking at Jiang Nian is better than having to serve Bibi Dong with constant anxiety.

He's already starting to fantasize about when this little guy will break through the title barrier...
And those two Nine Heart Begonia Martial Souls, they look excellent!

Behind the mountains.

A blonde girl with a high ponytail stared blankly at the mountain in front of her.

"No... I'm lost?"

"Damn it! I must be... I must be hungry. I need to eat something before I go on..."

"I should have called a horse-drawn carriage..."

Qian Renxue squatted down, feeling like crying. She had clearly followed the tire tracks, but she lost track of the car because she smelled a fragrance on the way.

"I can't be greedy anymore..."

The little golden retriever held the dry food in its hand with a pitiful expression, chewing it with a wronged look.

Her two sparkling golden eyes had lost their usual delicate air.

She wanted to catch a rabbit to eat, but she didn't know how to prepare it.

Buying food? It's so late at night and there's nobody around. You can't even buy an egg!
"Forget it, let's start a fire and deal with it tomorrow morning."

Qian Renxue sighed helplessly, threw out a flame, and then went to the side to cut off a few tree branches to keep warm.

Looking at the firelight before her, the image of Jiang Nian rose in her mind.

With that guy around, it seems like I don't have to worry about any of these things...

"You bastard! I, the princess, sneaked out. If you dare to kick me out... I'll bite you hard!"

Qian Renxue swung her fist fiercely, sat on a rock that had been warmed by the heat, rested her chin on her knees, and hugged her calves with both hands.

Close your eyes and get ready to rest.

"Oh... I feel so sorry for Your Highness..."

"I think this is a good thing for His Highness..."

The porcupine and the serpent spear were talking quietly, their eyes gazing into the distance.

···
The next day.

Frost fell on the mountainside at dawn. Jiang Nian held it in his hand, appreciating nature.

He gently patted Ye Wanqing beside him.

"Hmm? Your Highness... Ouch, when did I fall asleep?"

Looking at the blanket covering her, Ye Wanqing felt a warmth in her heart.

The campfire in front of us was still burning, and we couldn't feel any coolness at all.

"Get up first. Go and call Lingling. I'll serve the porridge."

"Oh, by the way, there's hot water I prepared there, you can wash up there."

Ye Wanqing blinked, wondering if she had misheard.

Did he do all of this by himself?
How could the Holy Son of God cook and boil water by himself?
If this gets out, probably very few people will believe it.

In no time, her favorability towards him increased significantly.

Such an approachable holy son was exactly what she had always dreamed of... *cough cough*

Ye Wanqing straightened her hair, folded the quilt and placed it on the stone slab where she slept, then got up and walked towards the tent where Ye Lingling was sleeping.

The girl was sleeping soundly when her mother slapped her on the bottom, instantly waking her up.

“Get up, the Holy Son has made... he has made porridge, let’s go and have some.”
