Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 86 The Enchanting Moments on Shared Bikes, Yuan En Ye Hui's Heart Fluttering
"Please remember to hang it up on the shelf for me. I'll be going now."

After a whole afternoon of forging iron, Nan Liujing waved his hand and left the Forging Masters Association with a flourish.

Inside the forging room, Feng Wuyu looked at the dozens of pieces of spirit-forged alloy neatly arranged on the table and burst into laughter.

Using the concept of "metal and water in harmony" to bring the two closer together proved to be a successful approach.

In this year's Inner Court Competition, the Wild School students will give everyone a surprise.

As soon as he stepped out of the gate, Nan Liujing rode a shared bicycle to the work-study student dormitory.

It was still that same grove of trees. After parking her bicycle, Nan Liujing walked in by herself.

Several dilapidated, low-lying huts stood nearby, with a water tap hanging in the distance. The ground was slightly damp, indicating that it had only recently been put into use.

Nan Liujing paused in his steps.

Is Yuan Enhui taking a bath?

As he was thinking this, suddenly, the door of a low hut opened, and a figure walked out.

Nan Liujing happened to be looking right into his eyes.

To make her martial soul more convenient, Yuanen Yehui always kept her hair short, reaching her shoulders, with slightly curled ends. She seemed too lazy to style it, giving it a casual and messy look. Her exquisite features were quite cold and aloof, giving off a sense of detachment that kept people at a distance.

Her skin was porcelain white, delicate yet with a touch of cool light. She wore a black, fitted mini-dress, showcasing her enviable bust line to its fullest extent, contrasting sharply with her incredibly slender waist, the curves of which were particularly eye-catching. The skirt fell to her knees, revealing her bare, glossy calves, exuding a sense of strength, their lines defined yet graceful, displaying the toned physique honed by years of exercise.

Nan Liujing had no doubt that if a battle broke out, those beautiful legs could instantly transform from elegant to fierce.

"you!"

Seemingly not expecting Nan Liujing to come knocking, Yuan Enyehui's pretty face showed a slightly unnatural expression.

The main reason is that she is used to wearing men's clothing and simple casual wear, and this is the first time she has worn a dress like this.

When inviting someone to dinner, you can't dress too casually.

Her jade-like hands clenched tightly, her slender white fingers fighting each other. Her usually deep black eyes held a hint of panic and embarrassment. She had never been so nervous, not even when facing a soul beast.

I've never dressed up much before, so I don't know how this outfit looks.

Seeing the other person's predicament, Nan Liujing smiled and said, "I can foresee that dinner will be quite delicious."

"Why?" Yuan Enhui asked blankly.

"A feast for the eyes, isn't it?" Nan Liujing chuckled.

His bright smile was like warm sunshine. Yuan Enhui's eyelids trembled slightly, and her tense heart quietly relaxed.

The two walked side by side, with Yuanen pushing the cart. The academy was too big, and it would be quite troublesome to walk without a cart.

A gentle breeze blew by, carrying the delicate fragrance of roses to her nose. Nan Liujing suddenly remembered that it seemed to have been mentioned in the original timeline that Yuan Enhui's favorite flower was the rose.

"What would you like to eat? It's on me," Yuan Enhui asked.

"Let's have some barbecue, we can chat while we eat," Nan Liujing said, then suddenly stopped, staring at the empty floor outside the woods, and asked in surprise, "Where's my shared bike?"

Nan Liujing walked a few steps forward, looked left and right, and there was no trace of the shared bicycles where she had parked before.

Damn it, which bastard rode it away?
“We can go…” Yuan Enhui started to say, but then noticed that the sky was getting dark and the sun was setting. It wasn’t a good idea to take his benefactor for so long to the restaurant.

She changed her approach: "How about you ride in my car?"

Shared bikes can seat two people, with a seat in the back.

“Okay.” Nan Liujing paused, turned around, and nodded solemnly.

Who said he was a scoundrel? He's clearly a good person!

Yuan Enhui was taken aback, not expecting the other party to agree so readily.

It was only then that she realized the shared bikes weren't very big, and if two people rode together, the person in the back would have to hold onto the person in front, otherwise they would easily tip over.

In other words... once the words are spoken, there's no going back.

As they drove along the forest path, a cool evening breeze from Poseidon Lake caressed their faces, causing their chestnut-red hair to flutter gently. Yuan Enhui pursed her lips, her pretty face flushed, and two hands rested lightly on her slender waist.

She had never been so close to a man before; even through her clothes, she could feel the warmth of his large hands.

With each turn, acceleration, and deceleration of the shared bicycle, her firm skin would be gently pinched by fingers, sending a tingling sensation through her heart and constantly impacting the girl's inner world.

boom!
Suddenly, a small, steep slope appeared. Yuan Enhui was slightly distracted because Nan Liujing was kneading her waist, so she didn't notice it.

This is bad.

The shared bike took off, and when it landed again, Nan Liujing, who was sitting in the back, didn't notice and instinctively lurched forward.

Their faces froze simultaneously.

Previously, he had only held her slender waist with his hands on either side, but now he had his strong arms tightly embracing her, and his handsome face was almost pressed against her chestnut-red short hair. A faint fragrance could be smelled from her snow-white neck.

His firm chest pressed tightly against her perfect, jade-like back, making the air seem to heat up and causing ripples to spread through the hearts of the young man and woman.

"Sorry." Nan Liujing quickly let go.

“It’s alright.” Yuan Enhui’s tone was stiff.

We could have chatted before, but by the time we arrived at the barbecue restaurant, not a single word had come out.

The barbecue restaurant was about 60% full, and business was pretty good.

Finding a secluded corner, Yuan Enye Hui took the initiative to order several expensive dishes that caused her toothache before handing the menu to Nan Liujing.

"I just picked a few, see what you like to eat."

A quick glance at the menu at Nanliujing revealed that the prices were at least three times higher than the barbecue restaurants I'd had in the outer city.

This meal will cost at least several hundred contribution points.

After casually ordering a few dishes and handing them to the waiter, Nan Liujing focused his mental energy outwards, isolating himself from the sounds of the corner and the outside world.

Nan Liujing sipped his hot water and said with a smile, "I have already used my mental power to isolate our conversation, so please speak freely."

Yuan Enhui's expression turned serious, and his deep, ancient eyes stared at the boy in front of him: "When the Fallen Angel Martial Soul condenses its own Soul Ring, it will bring unimaginable pain to the host. After you helped me that day, when I later broke through to Soul Master and condensed my third Soul Ring, my body was completely normal, and my dark attribute was much purer."

"Can you tell me how you did it?"

"Then this involves quite a few things." Nan Liujing naturally couldn't mention the Heavenly Tribulation Pearl, so he made up an excuse, "How much do you know about the Fallen Angel Martial Soul?"

Yuan Enhui looked bewildered: "I only know that the abilities of the Fallen Angel Martial Soul are somewhat similar to those of the Evil Soul Master. Although the Academy and the Federation have not explicitly stated that it is an evil Martial Soul."

Nan Liujing stated frankly, "The Fallen Angel is indeed not an evil martial soul. But the reason for the controversy is simply because it involves another dimension."

Yuan Enhui asked in surprise, "Another plane?" She had asked Ya Li and Yun Ming, but the answer they all gave was that you would understand once you joined the inner court.

This is one of the reasons why she never left Shrek Academy.

Nan Liujing said, "That plane is called the Demon Plane. The Fallen Angel Martial Soul is actually the seed they sowed in Douluo Continent. To put it bluntly, the seed is the bloodline of the Fallen Angel. Generally speaking, those who are chosen are all Soul Masters with outstanding talents. If these people have offspring, they may inherit it."

Yuan Enhui's face stiffened; she had inherited her mother's martial spirit.

"Since it's a martial soul from another dimension, isn't there some kind of bad possibility?" she asked quickly.

Nan Liujing glanced at her: "That's right."

"What is it?" she asked in a deep voice.

Nan Liujing said, "Once a Fallen Angel Soul Master breaks through to the ninth-ring Title Douluo level, they will 100% obtain a Soul Skill called Demon Gate. This Soul Skill will be released automatically, and the Soul Master will lose self-control, passively attracting the invasion of the demon army from the Demon Plane."

"These demons devour and enslave all life, and every time the demon gates open, a catastrophe will ensue."

Yuan Enhui was stunned.

She didn't remember the disaster... but recalling the past, before she left home, her second uncle, who had once doted on her, looked at her like an enemy, roaring at her with bloodshot eyes. At that time, she was somewhat frightened and didn't hear what her second uncle said clearly. The only thing she remembered was that when her second uncle said the words "fallen angel," his voice was almost torn apart.

Not only that, but her other loving family members also looked at her with resentment and hostility.

My mother was a Fallen Angel Soul Master. When she was alive, she was an Eighth Ring Soul Douluo.

As if grasping something from the depths of her being, a possibility that Yuan Enhui did not want to believe suddenly arose in her mind.

"Sir, we're about to serve your food." At that moment, the waiter pushed a cart and brought in the dishes.

Without disturbing Yuan Enhui, Nan Liujing started grilling by himself.

He had just put down a plate of beef tongue when he heard Yuan Enhui ask in a deep voice, "You helped me, so have you also been tainted by the evil power of the fallen angel?"

"Mm." Nanliu Scenic Spot nodded.

The girl's face turned pale, and she repeatedly apologized, "I'm sorry..."

"No need to apologize." Nan Liujing said indifferently, "The Fallen Angel Martial Soul is a time bomb, but it's not undefendable."

The girl was taken aback, then her dull eyes lit up again, and she asked impatiently, "How do we dismantle it?"

“Although the Demon Dimension is powerful, it is still inferior to the Douluo Dimension,” Nan Liujing said. “In a sense, the Fallen Angel Martial Soul is a good thing. As long as the connection with the Demon Dimension is severed, it will be a top-level angelic martial soul.”

"They can even hunt demons and seize their bloodlines to evolve their own Fallen Angel bloodline. The highest level of this bloodline is the Purple-Gold Royal Bloodline, whose strength is no less than that of a Holy Angel."

Yuan Enhui listened carefully and subconsciously ate the beef tongue that Nan Liujing had picked up for her. "How do you know so much?"

“My teacher is the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo of the Spirit Pagoda. I can access the secrets at any time,” Nan Liujing said while eating. “After I received the bloodline of the Fallen Angel from you, my teacher prepared a method for me that not only preserves the abilities of the Fallen Angel, but can even completely solve the remaining problems of the Demon Gate in the future.”

To be honest, Nan Liujing himself doesn't know how the Demon Body was formed. After all, its combat power is comparable to its original body, which is comparable to the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones. It's incredibly powerful.

Yuan Enhui pursed her lips and chose to remain silent.

She doesn't think she deserves to be included by others.

As for finding family members... if it really is as I think, it might just lead to another disaster.

Seek help from Shrek Academy? But why should she ask them for help? To put it bluntly, she's just an outsider.

Yuan Enhui was somewhat bewildered. It would have been better if she hadn't known these things, but now that she did, she felt a sense of dread about the future.

You risked your life to earn contribution points, only to become a tool for demons to enter Douluo Continent and harm its people?

If that's the case, what's the point of living?
The girl, overwhelmed by life, had a gloomy look in her eyes.

"By the way," Nan Liujing said, "would you like to join the Spirit Pagoda?"

The girl looked at him blankly.

Nan Liujing said calmly, "Anyway, we have to solve the problem. We can't just stand by and watch you die at the hands of the devil."

"Why are you helping me?" Yuan Enhui asked, puzzled. Seemingly afraid that the other party would misunderstand, he added, "What I mean is, you have already helped me a lot, and I have no reason to repay you."

"Your talent is my asset in repaying you," Nan Liujing said earnestly. "With your Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul and Fallen Angel Martial Soul, you're guaranteed to become a Super Douluo in the future, and even breaking through to the Limit Douluo level shouldn't be a problem. And for me to inherit my teacher's position, I need a group of loyal followers. You should understand the power struggles, right?"

"Of course, I won't force you. You can think about it later. If you're willing, call me; if you're not, just give me a call and let me know."

"Remember, you're not getting this benefit for nothing. What you have to give up is becoming my helper in the future."

The girl instinctively clenched her delicate hands; she had been persuaded.

She would absolutely refuse to accept help unconditionally, even at the cost of her life. But if it's an exchange of benefits, then there's no problem; neither of them owes the other anything.

The barbecue restaurant was getting busier and busier, filled with the aroma of grilled meat and the sounds of laughter.

As the meal progressed, the two tacitly avoided mentioning the fallen angels and instead started talking about battle armor and cultivation.

"I'm going to the restroom." After discussing the differences between the one-word battle armor made of Thousand Refinement Grade One and the battle armor made of Thousand Refinement Spirit Alloy with Yuan En Ye Hui, Nan Liu Jing got up and left the dining table.

Yuan Enhui was still immersed in the differences between the battle armors. Although she was tempted by the one-word battle armor made of the thousand-refined spirit alloy, since it could be integrated into the body and she didn't have to wear each piece one by one, well... forget it, it's too expensive.

After leaving the table, Nan Liujing did not go to the restroom, but went to the front desk and explained his purpose to the receptionist.

The student scanned the QR code and successfully paid for the meal.

Back at the table, looking at the empty plates, he smiled and said, "Are you full? How about we take a walk?"

"it is good."

The two went to the front desk together. Yuan Enhui was about to pay the bill when she was told that the table was free.

"Free?" Yuan Enhui was taken aback.

The beautiful receptionist smiled warmly and said, "Your table is our 6,666th table. According to the anniversary celebration rules, your meal is free."

"You're lucky," Nan Liujing joked.

Yuan Enhui blinked her beautiful eyes, and her cold and aloof face turned cute and innocent.

Leaving the barbecue restaurant, Yuan Enhui was not as cold as usual. She excitedly said to Nan Liujing, "I never thought I would have such incredible luck."

Is this the minimum guarantee after being squeezed to the limit by life?
"Maybe it's because I'm next to you." Nan Liujing put his hands behind his head and admired the starry sky.

Yuan Enhui stared blankly at the faint smile on the boy's lips, slightly lost in thought.

"What's wrong?" The boy turned his head and looked at him. His increasingly handsome face, which had grown with age, was extremely eye-catching.

"It's nothing," she said, smiling and shaking her head.
