Douluo Huo Yuhao: My Clone is Too Self-Disciplined

Chapter 68 Absorbing the Soul Ring, Request and Return
Mo Xi stood there dumbfounded. Was it because Zhang Lexuan had reopened his wounds? Of course not. He had just learned that the woman in front of him was actually named Zhang Lexuan.

As an avatar, he possesses most of the original's memories, which naturally include the plot of Douluo Continent.

Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister of Shrek Academy's inner court, possesses the spirit Moon. She first appeared when Mu En passed away, at which time she was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. Now, two years ago, she is about twenty-three years old.

The ages match up, and the events match up as well. Although the original work contains very little description of this accident, there are still a few key points.

Xuanzi led the team, eleven died and one survived, Zhang Lexuan knelt for a long time and could not get up, and then one person obtained a 100,000-year soul ring. These elements combined are indeed the Shrek Academy annihilation incident.

Therefore, when he traveled through time this time, he randomly bumped into someone and ended up meeting a key figure in the main characters' group.

Speaking of which, she seems to be Beibei's childhood sweetheart! No wonder she reacted so strongly just now. It's a pity that Beibei has already been taken to the Holy Spirit Cult and is living a shameless life with Tang Ya. Poor Zhang Lexuan is destined to be alone for the rest of her life.

However, when he learned that the woman in front of him was Zhang Lexuan, Mo Xi became less anxious, because he already had a perfect messenger, Zhang Lexuan.

Who could be more suitable for this task than the senior sister of Shrek Academy's inner court? No one!
"How are you?" Zhang Lexuan's anxious question came again. Mo Xi looked at her and said calmly, "I'm fine, but you're not!"

After he finished speaking, Zhang Lexuan, who had been struggling to stay upright, collapsed from behind him due to extreme weakness.

With lightning speed, Mo Xi caught her and skillfully lifted her up, placing her frail body on his lap. He then took out some blood-replenishing pills from his storage soul tool and fed them to Zhang Lexuan, which made her complexion look slightly better.

"We met by chance, and I believe we will never have the chance to meet again. I did not take your offense to heart."

“I came to the Star Dou Great Forest because of important business, and I don’t have time to waste. Because of you, I have already wasted a lot of time, but you are seriously injured now, and I can’t leave you here.”

"So, I only have one choice now: to take you with me on this journey. Once I've finished my business, if there's still time, I'll safely escort you out of the Star Dou Great Forest. If you're going to stay here and wait to die for your ridiculous intimacy, then I'll have no choice but to go alone."

Mo Xi did not hear Zhang Lexuan's reply. Zhang Lexuan simply hugged Mo Xi tighter, which was her silent response.

Mo Xi carried Zhang Lexuan and it took him a whole day to reach Thunder Swamp. After a day of rest, Zhang Lexuan's complexion had almost recovered, and the relationship between the two had become much more harmonious.

At least Zhang Lexuan knew his name was Mo Xi, and she also revealed to him that she was from Shrek Academy.

Mo Xi took this opportunity to make up a story for Zhang Lexuan as a prelude to asking him for a favor later.

He told Zhang Lexuan a very explosive story, his adapted version of the Uchiha clan massacre in Douluo Continent.

In this story, his identity is Uchiha Itachi, while his true form is his foolish younger brother, Uchiha Sasuke.

He made this arrangement simply because he didn't want to waste too much time explaining to Zhang Lexuan; making up a story like this was actually better.

Anyway, his current persona is that of a loving older brother who helps his younger brother, a genius older brother who helps his useless younger brother find rare and precious treasures, and a good older brother who helps him grow.

His purpose in coming here was to help his useless younger brother find the Thunderous Hell Vine, a treasure for body tempering. It was a perfect excuse, and Zhang Lexuan believed it to a large extent.

They were now in the Thunder Swamp. He left Zhang Lexuan outside, and then, based on his memories, he headed towards the Thunderous Hell Vine.

The Thunderous Hell Vine wasn't in the central area of ​​the Thunder Swamp, but rather in a very inconspicuous spot, growing alongside a bunch of Thunder Grass. That's why it had gone unnoticed for so long, which benefited Dai Huabin, that lucky guy. The protagonist strongly suspects that he was cursed by Tang Buddha, because of his original form's slacking off, Tang Buddha used many methods to motivate and annoy him. Dai Huabin's incident might also be Tang Buddha's doing.

After all, he couldn't believe that a piece of trash like Dai Huabin could absorb the ultimate lightning.

This time, however, Dai Huabin wasn't so lucky. Mo Xi continued walking towards the eastern region, where the lightning power of the Thunder Swamp permeated the air, making his body feel numb and tingling.

This place is a paradise for lightning-type soul beasts and a must-go for lightning-attribute soul masters to hunt them. However, it is not so friendly to ordinary-attribute soul masters, since lightning can paralyze people!
After being tormented for a while, he finally arrived at the grassy area without any major incident. The area was covered with dense thunder grass, and the power of lightning was everywhere, with lightning snakes running rampant.

He searched patiently, and sure enough, Zhu Lu hadn't lied. He found the Thunderous Hell Vine, which contained terrifying lightning power, among a pile of blue weeds at a glance.

The thunder grass around it seemed to submit to him, a testament to the awe-inspiring power of ultimate thunder. Legend has it that the lightning contained within the Thunderous Hell Vine belonged to the ancient thunder god, and it seems the legend may indeed be true.

After confirming the location of the Thunderous Hell Vine, he marked the location, updated the map, and then made a clean getaway. He had only come here to confirm the location; his second clone had not yet been created, and his main body did not need the Thunderous Hell Vine at the moment.

What he needs to do now is to come up with a reason with Zhang Lexuan and tell the main body this news in a discreet way.

Outside the Thunder Swamp, Zhang Lexuan sat cross-legged, recovering her soul power. When she saw Mo Xi emerge from within, a delighted smile appeared on her face.

She didn't know when it started, but she became particularly dependent on Mo Xi. Whenever she saw him, she couldn't help but want to get close to him, perhaps because of the sense of security that came from sharing life and death.

"So? Has the matter been resolved?"

Mo Xi nodded in satisfaction. "Yes, the Thunderous Hell Vine recorded in the family records is indeed in this place. Zhang Lexuan, I have something I want to ask you."

I trust your character, and I believe you can definitely help me achieve this, and as payment…”

Mo Xi retrieved the Shadow Leopard's corpse from his storage soul tool; the crimson light on the Shadow Leopard hadn't yet faded. A 100,000-year-old soul ring possesses immense energy, capable of being stored for over ten days at most, and at least seven days. Only a few days have passed; the soul ring won't disappear.

He looked at Zhang Lexuan and said solemnly, "As a reward, the Shadow Leopard's 100,000-year soul ring will belong to you."

Mo Xi paused for a moment, then continued, "Actually, this isn't really a reward. When you were unconscious, I killed it with the sword you were holding, so only you can absorb this soul ring."

After hearing Mo Xi's words, Zhang Lexuan finally showed a look of surprise. She did not expect that Mo Xi would give her a 100,000-year soul ring so casually, which moved her deeply.

Zhang Lexuan looked at him seriously and said firmly, "Don't worry, I will definitely fulfill your request."

"Okay, once we get back to Shrek Academy, you do this first, then do that, and that shouldn't let my brother know I helped him, and he'll be able to get the Thunderous Hell Vine smoothly..."

"Okay, whatever you say..."

……

The fourth update is here, and there's one last one to go.
