Douluo: Childhood Sweetheart Qian Renxue, Soul Rings Turn Into Veins

Heading north.

Ling Yuan had already recovered.

When Gu Yuena had just released her aura, the pressure from her bloodline was so overwhelming that Ling Yuan couldn't even summon her martial soul.

She was already a level 92 Titled Douluo—this kind of thing, even a Grand Worship wouldn't be able to accomplish, right?

With a bitter tone, she spoke:

"Xiaofeng, who exactly are those two seniors? If they are reclusive experts, why would they choose to interact with you? They're too powerful. We'll always be on the back foot."

Qian Renxue also frowned:

"The way she sent us away in the end, I still don't understand how she did it. Was it a space-type soul skill?"

Lin Feng shook his head:

"It is a bit passive on our part, but luckily, they don't seem to mean harm. In fact, they gave me quite a lot of things."

Especially that Cold Spring Essence in his kidney area—after condensing his fifth soul meridian, he would likely see unimaginable growth.

Qian Renxue snorted:

"That senior even asked for a gift in return. Who knows what she wants—she might be after your cultivation method.

Your reputation in the outside world is mostly because of it. Watch out, or she'll drag you back and make you her research subject day and night."

Then, Qian Renxue suddenly added:

"But from her voice, it didn't feel like she was very old. And her voice—it was ethereal and elegant, gentle yet seductive. She sounded like an absolute beauty."

She tilted her head and looked at Lin Feng beside her:

"Xiaofeng, do you think there's another one falling for you again? Hmm? Wants to take you back as her child groom, huh~"

Qian Renxue curled her lips, intentionally glancing at Ling Yuan.

Ling Yuan pressed her lips together:

"Xiaofeng, I still think we should be on guard. That senior today… her strength is beyond comprehension. She gave me a completely different feeling from the other one.

I couldn't sense her cultivation level at all—that's what's truly terrifying."

Lin Feng sighed. It wasn't even a matter of whether they wanted to be cautious.

The problem was that the other side could essentially walk sideways across the Douluo Star. What could he possibly guard against?

Since they'd come to find him, he might as well meet them head-on. He was planning to meet her eventually anyway.

Shaking his head, Lin Feng said:

"No need for now. They'll come to us and explain the details. As for the gift she wants, I think I have a clue."

Qian Renxue raised an eyebrow:

"What is it?"

Lin Feng chuckled:

"I said it just now—she forcibly adjusted my soul meridians. For the fifth soul meridian, which hadn't yet formed, she gave me an essence. That's the essence of extreme laws.

So, her intention is clear—she already knows the true content of my innate Soul Evolution Technique.

But just the meridian isn't enough for her. She wants me to go further, to surprise her even more."

Ling Yuan gasped:

"She didn't even show herself, just observed from afar—and could see the state of your body?"

Lin Feng nodded.

Some guy who practiced martial arts could do something similar just by perfecting his Purple Demon Eye technique—if Gu Yuena couldn't do it, that would be what's strange.

Qian Renxue's expression darkened:

"I really don't like this feeling. Especially when she just teased me and Xiaofeng.

So what if she's powerful? When I reach her level, I'll make her stand naked in front of me too. Hmph!"

Lin Feng was speechless. It sounded like a fantasy—too difficult.

"Where are we going now?" Qian Renxue asked.

Ling Yuan and Lin Feng exchanged a glance, then spoke in unison:

"To Xue City, by the Icebound Forest."

Qian Renxue nodded slightly:

"Alright. I've heard that place is close to the extreme north and has unique culture and soul beasts.

A city with the word 'snow' in its name—I really want to see it."

Qian Renxue paused mid-step and glanced behind her:

"If those two seniors truly mean no harm, perhaps we could even recruit them into Spirit Hall."

Lin Feng knocked her on the forehead:

"There you go again, admiring talent without considering their background.

If they really wanted to join, they wouldn't need you to say it."

Qian Renxue rubbed her forehead, giving him a playful glare:

"You're always speaking up for her. Say it—are you falling for her?"

Lin Feng widened his eyes:

"I haven't even seen her true form! How would I fall for her?"

Qian Renxue pouted:

"Who knows? Even if she's way older than you, I feel like you have a thing for older women.

Even I am older than you by a month."

Ling Yuan gave a little cough, trying to ease the awkwardness.

"Xiaoxue, I feel like you've been jealous a lot lately. Why's that?"

Qian Renxue lightly punched Lin Feng's shoulder:

"You still have the nerve to ask? Spirit Hall is one thing, but even in the soul beast forest, there are female seniors chasing after you. Your charm is off the charts!"

"Haha, how is that my fault? They're the ones coming to me."

"Hmph~"

Qian Renxue narrowed her eyes at the smug-looking Lin Feng and sneered inwardly.

She touched her storage soul tool. Not bad—the supply she brought was more than enough.

Forget the Deep River. She was going to take the first bite—right in the city that shared her name!

The corners of her lips curved up slightly. Over the years, Lin Feng had taken so many aphrodisiacs with her that he'd built some resistance.

But Qian Renxue had a simple solution.

Since it's come to this—why not go further?

Increase the dosage! Xiaofeng won't be able to hold on!

Her eyes sparkled. Recently, with Lin Feng's growth, his "fire" seemed to rise easily, and his "little Xiaofeng" was becoming more formidable.

After arriving in Xue City, the trio went straight to find a hotel.

The scenery along the way was nothing short of stunning.

As soul masters, they didn't need to wear heavy clothing—light gear was enough.

"Behold the northern beauty—frozen for a thousand miles, snow swirling for ten thousand."

Lin Feng admired the snow-covered cityscape and couldn't help but sigh in awe.

The white snow shimmered under the sun, and the cold wind carried a refreshing and peaceful aura.

People bustled on the streets, but there were also lovers strolling leisurely in the snow, and children frolicking and playing.

While walking on the main street, Qian Renxue's eyes suddenly lit up:

"Xiaofeng, Sister Ling Yuan, let's stay here."

Lin Feng looked in the direction she was pointing—and twitched.

A hotel with a bright pink exterior, a giant rose sign hanging on the front.

Four golden characters stood tall on the building:

"Rose Hotel."

What is this, the Hotel of Destiny? And it's a national chain, apparently.

This cozy, intimate, and heavily suggestive place... hopefully the walls are soundproof.

The front desk guy saw the three of them and his eyes gleamed with understanding:

"Welcome! Are you looking for a room? How many—"

"One room."

Before he could finish, Qian Renxue interrupted directly.

A flash of surprise crossed the receptionist's eyes. He nodded at Lin Feng.

Gold soul coins exchanged hands.

"Here's your room card—please enjoy your stay."

The trio didn't go to their room right away. They sat in the lobby for a while instead.

Outside the hall was a beautiful snowy view—worth admiring.

"I heard Xue City has a local specialty called 'Snow Brew'—a fine wine made from snow water. Rich in taste, fragrant aroma," Lin Feng introduced to Qian Renxue and Ling Yuan.

"Then we must try it," Qian Renxue's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Ordering a few pots of Snow Brew, the three sat sipping wine and admiring the snow.

"This Snow Brew definitely lives up to its reputation. Soft entry, long aftertaste," Lin Feng praised.

"Yeah, I really like it too." Qian Renxue agreed, cheeks flushed with a rosy hue. She glanced at Ling Yuan and gave her a meaningful look.

Ling Yuan immediately understood and gave a helpless nod.

"Xiaofeng, I can't drink anymore—you finish it."

Qian Renxue extended her jade-white arm and set her cup in front of Lin Feng.

This scene again? How many times was this going to happen? Lin Feng rolled his eyes.

He knew it was a trap. Should he avoid it?

Avoid it my foot!

Lin Feng took the cup and said softly:

"Good wine indeed. Let's see how long that aftertaste lasts. I'll savor it well."
