Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 91 Zhang Lexuan's Moon Martial Soul!

Upon hearing Mu En's voice, Zhu Ziyang had no choice but to abandon his plan to enter the sea of ​​consciousness now, deciding to wait until he returned to the outer courtyard. After all, Electrolux was already in his sea of ​​consciousness and wouldn't be lost.

The roots of the golden ancient tree connect to the Sea God Pavilion. Zhu Ziyang immediately went through the tree hole and entered the Sea God Pavilion, where he met Mu En.

After noticing Zhu Ziyang enter the Sea God Pavilion, Mu En, who was lying on the wooden chair, raised his head, opened his eyes slightly, and looked at Zhu Ziyang. Upon seeing him, he immediately let out a gratified laugh and said, "Very good, very good! You have tangible yet intangible spiritual power, and level 38 soul power. Good boy, you have truly surprised this old man."

"Teacher, you flatter me." Zhu Ziyang said politely at first, then smiled and said, "Hehe, I didn't expect to break through so easily."

"This is truly a blessing in disguise!" Mu En exclaimed, then said with a smile, "Alright, you've been in seclusion for over a month now. Go see Nan Nan. That girl comes to ask about me almost every day; this old man is practically a messenger."

"It took so long!" Zhu Ziyang exclaimed in surprise. Then, upon hearing Mu En's words, he couldn't help but laugh. "Hehe, teacher, I'll head back to the outer courtyard now."

"Okay, go ahead." Moon nodded and said, "You have three days to rest. Come back here to find me in three days."

"Yes." Zhu Ziyang didn't rush to ask Mu En's intentions, nor did he need to. He simply agreed and turned to leave.

Zhu Ziyang left the Sea God Pavilion and had just stepped down from the Golden Ancient Tree when he encountered Jiang Nannan.

At this moment, Jiang Nannan was standing in front of a wooden house, next to a gentle woman in her early twenties. The two were chatting and laughing, and their relationship was very intimate.

Zhang Lexuan, the top disciple of the Inner Academy, is the youngest Soul Saint in the history of Shrek Academy's Inner Academy, and is said to be about to break through to Soul Douluo. Zhu Ziyang met her a few times after becoming Mu En's disciple, but their relationship was neither close nor distant, just average, since they didn't have many opportunities to interact.

Zhu Ziyang was very puzzled. In just over a month, Jiang Nannan and Zhang Lexuan had become so close? This was too outrageous. Are friendships between girls so easy to build?

"Nannan," Zhu Ziyang called out.

"Huh?" The girl responded instinctively when she heard someone call her name. Then, looking in the direction of the voice, she saw her beloved Ziyang brother, whom she had been longing for day and night. She jumped up excitedly, her bright red eyes filled with excitement and joy. "Brother!"

The girl rushed to Zhu Ziyang and hugged him tightly. Zhu Ziyang returned the embrace, wrapping his arms around her soft waist and feeling her intense affection.

On the other side, Zhang Lexuan looked at the two people embracing tightly and smiled knowingly. However, a sunny smiling face involuntarily flashed through her mind. While her heart was warmed, she couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"Sister Lexuan, my brother and I are going back to the outer courtyard first. We'll come visit you again when we have time!" Jiang Nannan didn't notice Zhang Lexuan's thoughts. At this moment, her heart was already filled with Zhu Ziyang. She smiled and waved goodbye to Zhang Lexuan.

"Okay," Zhang Lexuan replied with a smile.

Zhu Ziyang smiled and nodded to Zhang Lexuan, then put his arm around Jiang Nannan's waist and walked towards the outer courtyard.

"Nannan, how come you're so familiar with Zhang Lexuan?" Zhu Ziyang couldn't contain his curiosity and asked.

"Hehe, there's really no reason. I just feel a sense of familiarity when I see her," Jiang Nannan said with a silly grin. "At first, we were just nodding acquaintances. Every time we met, we would just say hello and leave. Then one time, Sister Lexuan told me that she felt a sense of familiarity with me, and that's when I realized that we felt the same way about each other. We were both very confused until I accidentally found out that Sister Lexuan's martial soul was actually the moon, and then I understood why."

"What? Moon Martial Soul!" Zhu Ziyang was shocked when he heard Jiang Nannan's words.

He finally understood why Zhang Lexuan was able to become a Soul Saint in her early twenties.

She actually possesses a Moon Martial Soul!

The Moon Martial Soul is a super martial soul, possessing the power of the moon. It is extremely yin and gentle, making it the best among yin-attribute martial souls. Although it is not the ultimate attribute, it is in no way weaker than the ultimate martial soul. Its owner can use the power of the moon to strengthen themselves, gaining tremendous help in cultivation and combat.

Zhu Ziyang truly hadn't expected that Zhang Lexuan possessed the Moon Martial Soul. As far as he knew, the Moon Martial Soul was one of the three super Martial Souls on the Sun Moon Continent, and it didn't exist on the original Douluo Continent. Did that mean Zhang Lexuan was from the Sun Moon Empire? Moreover, the Sun Moon Empire's royal secret manual he had read mentioned that the Sun Moon Empire was called the Sun Moon Empire because its royal family's inherited Martial Souls were the Sun Martial Soul and the Moon Martial Soul!

Currently, within the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire, it seems that only the Sun Martial Soul remains of the three inherited Martial Souls. The Moon Martial Soul lost its lineage hundreds of years ago, and the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon Martial Soul seems to have not appeared for decades. The current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire possesses the Sun Martial Soul.

Therefore, Zhang Lexuan is very likely a descendant of the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire.

With the Sun, Moon, and Purple Emperor Dragon-Slaying Souls—three super martial souls—blessing that the Sun Moon Empire has always been ruled by the Xu family, and its nobles dare not rebel. Those who possess these three martial souls, as long as they don't die, are bound to become Title Douluo. One can only imagine how terrifying the Sun Moon royal family's foundation is.

In comparison, the Star Crown of the Star Luo Royal Family, the former White Tiger, the Swan of the Heaven Dou Royal Family and the Dou Ling Royal Family, and the Snow Lotus of the Heaven Soul Royal Family all seem much inferior.

"Brother, brother!" Jiang Nannan called out in dissatisfaction. The girl pouted and said, "Were you even listening to me?!"

"Yes, yes!" Zhu Ziyang snapped out of his thoughts and quickly answered the girl, saying, "I'm just very surprised that Zhang Lexuan actually has a Moon Martial Soul."

"Right? I was surprised at first too," Jiang Nannan chimed in. "I didn't even know a Moon Martial Soul existed on the continent. Could a Sun Martial Soul also exist?"

The girl spoke half-jokingly, unaware that her words would become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Zhu Ziyang laughed and said, "You were right, there really is such a thing as a Solar Martial Soul."

"No way, he was just saying that later." The girl opened her mouth wide, looking at Zhu Ziyang in disbelief.

"The current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire possesses the Sun Martial Soul," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile, pinching the girl's skin; it was smooth and slippery. "Don't be surprised, we've crossed the lake."

"Oh!" The girl suppressed her surprise and quickly grabbed Zhu Ziyang's arm and jumped onto the ferry.

The two returned to the outer courtyard.

"The reason you and Zhang Lexuan feel close to each other is mostly due to the connection between your martial souls," Zhu Ziyang analyzed. "Your Taiyin Jade Rabbit martial soul and her Moon martial soul are very compatible, and having a good relationship with her is very beneficial to your martial soul."

"Brother, how can you say that? Even if Sister Lexuan's martial soul isn't the Moon Martial Soul, people will still befriend her. After all, Sister Lexuan is such a gentle person," Jiang Nannan said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I was being petty," Zhu Ziyang said helplessly, ruffling the girl's silver hair.

"No, it's not that. My brother is just doing it for my own good!" Jiang Nannan said coquettishly, hugging Zhu Ziyang's arm.

"By the way, did Brother Yu know that I was in seclusion? And has anything happened in the class during these two months?" Zhu Ziyang asked.

"Throughout the past month or so, things have been quite peaceful in class." Jiang Nannan turned her head, thought for a moment, and said, "On the second day of your seclusion, Dean Yan informed Brother Yu. I remember Brother Yu was excited all day long. As for what happened, Bei Bei broke through to level 29. It seems she got a Soul Ascension Pill from home and is already level 30. She asked Brother Yu for leave a couple of days ago to go hunting for her third Soul Ring."

"Really?" Zhu Ziyang wasn't surprised, given Bei Bei's talent and family background. He suddenly wondered, what exactly was the relationship between Bei Bei and Zhang Lexuan? Bei Bei was undoubtedly a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and Zhang Lexuan's Moon Martial Soul indicated she possessed the bloodline of the Sun Moon Empire. How could these two possibly be siblings?

curious.

"Then there's Xiaoya, who reached level 27," Jiang Nannan added at the end.

"Huh? Why don't you talk about yourself?" Zhu Ziyang asked, puzzled.

"Hehe, I was just saving this for last," the girl giggled and said, "My teacher and senior sister have taught me so much this past month that I haven't had time to cultivate. I'm still only level 34, hehe."

Jiang Nannan, of course, wouldn't say that she was so preoccupied with Zhu Ziyang that she lost all interest in cultivation.
