Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

Chapter 50 The Seed of Life Given to Zhang Lexuan
"Alright, since there are no problems, then it's settled."

Yan Shaozhe chuckled and looked at Ye Chen, saying, "Little Chen, you must cultivate diligently from now on. When you grow up a bit, I will teach you to manage the outer courtyard."

"Okay, thank you, Master~" Ye Chen smiled brightly.

He wasn't really interested in managing the foreign language department, but it didn't matter. Being a boss didn't require management skills; all you needed to do was be good at judging people.

The college has many talented people; as long as you can identify them accurately, managing the college will be very easy.

Soon, the meeting is over.

The purpose of having Ye Chen come here this time is simply to let the elders get acquainted with him, so that it will be easier to take care of him in the future.

After all, Ye Chen's reward was already decided yesterday; today was just to inform Ye Chen.

The meeting adjourned.

Ye Chen parted ways with Ma Xiaotao and then went to chase after Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan definitely played a very important role in this award.

Although Ye Chen didn't care much about the reward, he was very grateful for Zhang Lexuan's efforts and would definitely like to express his gratitude properly.

……

……

Poseidon Pavilion, located in a separate courtyard.

Zhang Lexuan was just about to go back to her room to rest when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

Zhang Lexuan turned her head slightly and immediately saw Ye Chen chasing after her.

"Xiao Chen, why did you come along?" Zhang Lexuan asked with a smile.

Although she didn't know what Ye Chen was up to, just seeing him made her inexplicably happy. She was usually serious and rarely smiled, but she didn't hold back her smiles when she saw Ye Chen.

"Sister, we owe you so much for this. Thank you for your help." Ye Chen stepped forward, his face filled with sincere gratitude.

"Pfft~"

Zhang Lexuan covered her mouth and chuckled, gently flicking Ye Chen's nose. Her eyes were full of tenderness as she said, "Do we need to say all this between us? You're my younger brother. As his older sister, isn't it only right that I take care of him?"

"Come on in, let's go inside and have a seat at my place!"

Without saying a word, Zhang Lexuan grabbed Ye Chen's hand and led him into the courtyard.

As the senior disciple of the inner courtyard, Zhang Lexuan held a superior position. In reality, she was no different from the other teachers. She owned her own small villa, which was three or four times the size of Ma Xiaotao's residence.

The courtyard contains several elegant pavilions and courtyards, which appear very fresh and elegant, like a paradise. Moreover, the spiritual energy here is much richer than outside.

Cultivating in such a place will definitely yield twice the results with half the effort.

"Come on, Xiao Chen, have some tea. I'll make you something delicious." Zhang Lexuan warmly welcomed Ye Chen.

She had wanted to invite Ye Chen to her home for a long time, but she hadn't found the opportunity or excuse yet.

Now that Ye Chen has come to her of his own accord, she naturally won't let this opportunity slip by.

We must treat them well!
This way, Ye Chen can come over more often in the future.

Cultivation is inherently tedious, and Ye Chen can be said to be the only little brother who can bring her a bit of fun in her monotonous life, so she naturally has to seize the opportunity.

Of course, she used to have Beibei. When Beibei was little, she was very obedient and fun. Unfortunately, Beibei became less fun as she grew up and became a bit dull. Since Tang Ya came into her life, Beibei has never come to visit her again...

Ye Chen is still the cutest.

"Sister, no need. I came here to thank you, and I even prepared a gift for you. I hope you won't refuse."

Ye Chen quickly tugged at Zhang Lexuan, then took out a delicate little wooden box and stuffed it into Zhang Lexuan's arms.

Among them are three "Seeds of Life", each containing one year of his lifespan.

The "Seed of Life" is not only a miraculous healing medicine, but also a top-tier anti-aging elixir when there are no injuries, making it the perfect gift for women. Giving too many of these elixirs would make them seem less valuable.

Sending too few wouldn't be sincere enough, so Ye Chen felt that three was just right.

Yes, we can send more in the future.

"what is this?"

Zhang Lexuan opened the wooden box and found three small green pills lying quietly inside.

"This is our family's secret healing elixir. I gave it to Sister Xiaotao last time. It can heal injuries instantly and save her life when there is no healing-type Soul Master with her," Ye Chen explained.

"Ah... Xiao Chen, this... this is too precious, I can't accept it..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan exclaimed in surprise and quickly declined.

With her experience, she naturally knew how precious and rare this kind of elixir was; if it were sold outside, it would definitely fetch an astronomical price.

Ye Chen actually gave her three of them, which she definitely couldn't accept; they were far too precious.

"Sister, please accept this. It's a token of my brother's affection."

Ye Chen once again placed the jade box into Zhang Lexuan's arms.

He leaned forward and hugged Zhang Lexuan, then blew into her ear and whispered, "These pills can not only heal injuries, but also preserve youth. Three pills can make you look at least three years younger..."

"Wow! That's amazing..."

Zhang Lexuan's heart skipped a beat, and she was instantly smitten.

Girls all love beauty, and she was no exception. Three pills could make her look three years younger—who could resist that temptation?

Zhang Lexuan was surprised, and her face turned bright red.

Because Ye Chen was pressed against her body at that moment, especially when he breathed on her ear, making her ear itch and her heart itch even more...

Especially smelling Ye Chen's fragrance so closely made her heart, which had been dormant for many years, begin to beat faster...

However, she showed no resistance whatsoever. Instead, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Ye Chen's waist and hugged him.

"Yes, although this elixir is precious, it can't compare to my sister's place in my heart."

"One pill to heal your injuries, and two pills to preserve your youth. This is a token of my appreciation, and I hope you will not refuse."

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he slightly loosened his grip on Zhang Lexuan and stared straight at her.

"Hmm... alright, I'll accept it then." In the end, Zhang Lexuan couldn't resist the temptation of the Youth Preservation Pill and accepted the gift.

Of course, Zhang Lexuan would never admit it; it was a gift from her younger brother, and as the older sister, she couldn't refuse it.
"Hehe, that's more like it~"

Ye Chen was finally satisfied upon seeing this.

Giving gifts can quickly increase favorability, enhance friendship, or even corrupt it...

Zhang Lexuan is incredibly powerful. If we can bring her into the Tang Sect, many things will be much easier later on.
"Oh, right, Xiao Chen, wait a minute, I also have a gift for you~"

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan seemed to have thought of something, her face flushed slightly, and she turned and ran into the room.

"Hmm, Zhang Lexuan also has a gift. What could it be? It's so hard to guess..."

Ye Chen rubbed his chin, feeling a strange sense of anticipation, because he really couldn't guess what gift Zhang Lexuan would give him.

Zhang Lexuan's decision was clearly impromptu; what could she possibly give as a gift?

Could it be underwear?
