Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 237 Overtime

Ji Lin couldn't help but laugh whenever he thought of Zhang Lexuan begging for mercy several times last night. He never expected that the usually aloof, mature, and composed senior sister of the inner courtyard would actually be such a pushover. Compared to Ma Xiaotao, Zhang Lexuan was nothing.

Ji Lin carried the naked Zhang Lexuan into the bathroom, intending to wash away the traces left on them the night before. Ji Lin turned on the shower, and the warm water flowed over them. Zhang Lexuan felt the warm water on her skin and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She was so exhausted last night that even a Contra Master couldn't keep up. She felt weak and powerless all over, otherwise Ji Lin wouldn't have needed to carry her to clean her up.

Looking at Ji Lin cleaning her body, Zhang Lexuan suddenly had a strange thought that she couldn't understand, making her so ashamed that she wanted to crawl into a hole.

姬麟

Were you satisfied last night?

Anyway, I'm quite satisfied.

No, I should say I'm very satisfied.

Zhang Lexuan had no prior experience with this and was unsure whether her performance was commensurate with the strength of her opponent, Ji Lin.

A truly exhilarating battle should be one where the skill levels of both sides are relatively similar, allowing for a truly satisfying experience.

Zhang Lexuan's current thoughts can be summed up in one sentence: I'm sorry, Lord Ji Lin, I couldn't get you to use your full strength.

"I was here last night."

Remembering how she had wrapped her arms around Ji Lin's neck and whispered those explicit and shameful words in his ear, Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but cover her face with her hands.

"Just how many embarrassing things have I said?!"

Looking at Zhang Lexuan, who was covering her face shyly, Ji Lin tilted his head, a little puzzled. However, boys are usually aroused in the morning, and with Zhang Lexuan showing such a cute expression, it would be strange if Ji Lin could resist.

So this was the first time in Zhang Lexuan's life that she had sat on a marble sink for such a long time.

This is the first time I've ever heard that kneeling on the floor tiles and bending over for a long time can leave red marks on your knees.

"No, we can't stay in there any longer, it's too dangerous."

"So, where is it, Sister Lexuan?"

"Anywhere except inside is fine."

"Alright then."

Ten minutes later.

Zhang Lexuan opened the toothbrush provided by the hotel, rinsed her mouth, and carefully brushed her teeth. Looking at her long black hair, which had become messy again, she looked exhausted.

She realized that her combat strength was not equal to Ji Lin's.

By the time Zhang Lexuan finished washing up and the two walked out of the Rose Hotel together, it was almost 10 a.m.

The two had already missed breakfast at the inner courtyard canteen. Normally, with their current cultivation levels, missing a meal wouldn't have made a difference. However, they were too tired last night and had played an overtime match this morning, so they were quite hungry. They decided to order two breakfasts at the Rose Hotel before leaving.

After Zhang Lexuan and Ji Lin returned to the inner courtyard, they parted ways. Zhang Lexuan still had to deal with the exchange students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, assigning them one-on-one mentors.

Ji Lin still had to go back to appease Wang Qiu'er. Although he had sent a message to her using his communication soul tool last night, he hadn't returned home that night, and he had to explain that.

When Ji Lin saw Wang Qiu'er in the Soul Arena, she was beating up Chu Qingtian.

Chu Qingtian came today to complete the academy's Soul Battle mission, but unfortunately ran into Wang Qiu'er, who was clearly in a bad mood.

Sure enough, Wang Qiu'er caught him and gave him a severe beating.

While fleeing, Chu Qingtian caught sight of Ji Lin below the stage and jumped off the stage to stand in front of Ji Lin as if he had seen a savior. He cried and said with snot and tears streaming down his face, "Junior brother, you've finally arrived! Quickly, do something about your little dragon girl. She's been acting like she's on fire today. She's been hitting so hard. Look at me, my bones are almost broken."

Seeing Chu Qingtian jump off the stage to admit defeat, Wang Qiu'er put away her Golden Dragon Spear and also jumped off the stage to stand in front of Ji Lin. Chu Qingtian quickly hid behind Ji Lin.

Wang Qiu'er approached Ji Lin and asked coldly, "What were you doing last night?"

Ji Lin smiled and immediately understood why the message he sent last night via the communication soul tool had turned white. He stepped forward, took Wang Qiu'er's hand, and said, "Let's talk as we walk; it's not convenient here."

After saying that, he pulled Wang Qiu'er up and walked out of the Soul Fighting Zone.

Seeing Wang Qiu'er being pulled away by Ji Lin, Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Something's up!"

After saying that, the two of them followed behind Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er.

The remaining inner court disciples breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Wang Qiu'er being pulled away by Ji Lin.

Anyone with eyes can see that the Golden Dragon Girl is in a bad mood today; whoever goes up against her will be doomed.

Now that's good, the people have been taken away, and they don't have to worry about getting beaten up anymore.

Chu Qingtian was the only one in the entire arena clutching his injured area, on the verge of tears, saying, "Why am I always the unlucky one!"

Ji Lin led Wang Qiu'er along the shore of Poseidon Lake. The midday sun shone on the shimmering surface of the lake, making it seem as if countless diamonds were dancing on the water. The trees along the shore swayed gently in the breeze, casting dappled shadows. In the distance, several water birds swam leisurely, occasionally diving into the water to catch fish, stirring up ripples.

Ji Lin explained to Wang Qiu'er, "Last night, I went shopping in Shrek City with Sister Le Xuan. We got late and missed the academy's curfew, so we had to find a hotel in the city to rest for the night. Didn't I send you a message using my soul communication device? Didn't you receive it?"

Wang Qiu'er blushed. Ji Lin had indeed given her a communication soul tool before, but she didn't know how to use it. Moreover, Ji Lin was with her every day, so she didn't have the opportunity to use it. Therefore, she had left the communication soul tool in her storage soul tool and had not received any messages.

Ji Lin chuckled and gently flicked Wang Qiu'er's nose with his finger, saying softly, "You really need to learn how to use the communication soul tool, otherwise, if I suddenly have something to do and don't have time to tell you, will you sulk like you did today?"

Wang Qiu'er pouted and said, "I know, but why didn't you come back this morning?"

Ji Lin's body stiffened slightly for a moment. He couldn't very well say that he had played an overtime game with Zhang Lexuan.

Ji Lin said, "As you know, Sister Le Xuan and I haven't spent much time alone together in a long time, so we chatted for a while and that's why we came back late."

Wang Qiu'er accepted Ji Lin's explanation. Then, with a cold glint in her eyes, she glanced at the distance behind her. Upon seeing this, Ji Lin activated his mental detection and quickly discovered two furtive figures lurking in the grove behind them.

Ji Lin shouted irritably at the woods behind him, "You two idiots, have you forgotten Qiu'er's Golden Perception? With your level of skill, you dare to try and track me? Come out here!"
