Ronin from Douluo

"master!"

Yan Que couldn't help but tears welling up from her eyes, she threw herself into Zeng Yi's arms and burst into tears.

She was really scared just now, afraid that her master had changed. The strange feeling made her extremely panicked, and she was afraid of losing that gentle master. But fortunately, the master was still the same master.

Looking at Xiao Yanque who was hugging him and crying, Zeng Yi felt warm in his heart. This feeling of being relied on is really good!

"Okay, you are a girl, so don't cry, you will become ugly." Zeng Yi touched Xiao Yanque's head and chuckled.

"Yeah!" Yan Que sobbed in response.

"Meow~"

Xiaoju also jumped onto Zeng Yi's shoulders, and her head arched on Zeng Yi's neck, as if she was coquettishly acting coquettishly.

"Haha, Xiaoju, you are great too!" Zeng Yi touched its head and smiled. If it weren't for Xiaoju's mental attack, things would have become more troublesome.

"Let's go, let's go back."

"Well, but master, here"

"Don't worry about it, someone will take care of it."

Three days later, Zeng Yi heard the news in Shunding City that the city lord's mansion was wiped out overnight, and the city lord was replaced instantly.

"master"

Seeing Xiao Yanque looking at him, Zeng Yi shook his head.

"What does it have to do with us? Don't worry about it. Those who do evil will always be punished, it's just sooner or later." Zeng Yi said calmly.

But Zeng Yi also guessed something. This matter should have a lot to do with him. Because the people he killed caused a vacancy in the original city lord's mansion, which was replaced by other forces.

But if such a person dies, he will not feel much guilt. I only hope that the current city lord can bring a good life to the people in this city.

"Master, when will you take me to get the soul ring?" Yan Que looked at Zeng Yi expectantly and asked.

"It's not time yet. Exercise hard and increase your physical strength. Otherwise, you won't be able to withstand the hundred-year soul ring." Zeng Yi took a sip of wine and said.

"Oh~"

"Go back and swing the sword five hundred times with a heavy load. Eat quickly!"

"ah?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yanque instantly felt that he had no appetite for this delicious meal.

The master was very kind and gentle to her, but this was only during leisure time. But during training, he was extremely strict and showed no mercy at all, which made her both painful and happy.

Seven days later.

In the early morning, Yan Que opened the door of his house and saw his master standing outside the door waiting for him.

"Master, do you want to run again in the morning?" Looking at Zeng Yi with a faint smile on his face, Yan Que asked.

"No, we are leaving this city today." Zeng Yi said.

"Ah? Leave, where are we going?" Yan Que was very surprised.

"Haven't you always wanted to get a soul ring?"

"Soul ring!"

Upon hearing this word, Yan Que's somewhat blurred eyes instantly shone with light and he exclaimed.

"I can finally get a soul ring, and I'm going to become a soul master!" Yanque cheered excitedly.

Seeing Xiao Yanque's appearance, Zeng Yi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly and smiled.

After all, he is still a child!

Because this is a small town and there is no place to get soul rings, Zeng Yi planned to take Xiao Yanque to the soul hunting forest to hunt for soul rings. Because it is a century-old soul ring, the soul beast forest kept in captivity by the country and Wuhun Hall can satisfy it.

There was no need to go to those two soul beast forests. He was really afraid. It wasn't that he was afraid of the soul beasts, but he was afraid of getting lost.

At first, Zeng Yi didn't go to the Soul Hunting Forest because he couldn't get in. But now, he is a person with status.

"Since there is no problem, let's set off now." Zeng Yi said with a smile.

"Hmm, wait, master."

"What's wrong?" Zeng Yi was a little confused.

"Can you go to a place with me first?" Yan Que looked at Zeng Yi and said, with pleading and a touch of sadness in his eyes.

Outside Shunding City, in front of a small mound, Yan Que knelt in front of a wooden sign. Zeng Yi stood behind her, watching silently.

"Mom, you can rest assured now, Que'er is living a good life here. Although it was very difficult before, Que'er has survived, and she has a master who can care and love her like her mother.

." Yan Que said to his mother's tombstone, looking a little sad.

"By the way, mom, this is Que'er's master. Isn't he very handsome?" Yan Que looked at the master behind him, Zeng Yi, and then said again.

"Master is a very powerful soul master! Now Que'er is practicing with the master. Master said that Que'er's talent is very good, and Que'er will definitely become a powerful soul master in the future."

"Although practice is very hard and tiring, Que'er will definitely persevere to the end and cannot live up to Master's expectations for Que'er."

"Mom, you said that as long as Que'er lives well, it will be fine. But, this alone is not enough. Que'er will not only live well, but also become a strong person!"

"Mom, I'm leaving. When I come back, I will already be an excellent and powerful soul master."

It's a pity, mom, you can't see me anymore

Yan Que wiped away his tears, stood up from the ground, turned around and faced Zeng Yi, looked at his master with red eyes, and said with a smile: "Okay, master, we can set off."

"It's too ugly to laugh."

Zeng Yi placed his palm on Yan Que's head and rubbed her hair.

"Let's go."

The soul-hunting forest where Zeng Yi took Xiao Yanque was near a main city-level city in the Tiandou Empire, and it was not too far away from Shunding City.

"Xiao Yanque, can you understand the map?" Zeng Yi took out a parchment scroll and threw it to Yanque and asked her.

Zeng Yi had already asked clearly about the route to this soul-hunting forest in Shunding City, and had someone draw a detailed map. However, he was still a little panicked. He was not confident in his sense of direction.

"Well, I know this, master." Yan Que opened the map, looked at it, and said seriously.

"Sure?"

"Um!"

Yanque nodded affirmatively. Although her strength was poor, her IQ was not stupid. She could clearly see and understand such a detailed road map.

Why did the master ask this question? Is he testing me?

Seeing the happy look on his master's face, Yan Que thought to himself.

"Well, not bad! In that case, let's go on foot. We can still train on the road and save a lot of money on travel expenses." Zeng Yi said, he originally wanted to go to the carriage, since all his apprentices are like this

Having said that, let's go. Besides, he is a little tight on money now, so he will save as much as he can.

During these ten days, the reason Zeng Yi stayed in Shunding City was to lay the foundation for Xiao Yanque, because her previous health was really bad.

Give her good food and drink every day to nourish her body, and give her a medicinal bath at night. Although Zeng Yi himself doesn't understand medical issues, the doctors in the medical clinic will always know some prescriptions to replenish the body.

?So, as long as you have money, you can still do it.

Coupled with Zeng Yi's training, her current physique is able to withstand a hundred-year-level soul ring.

Save travel expenses?

Hearing what the master said, Yan Que's mouth twitched, was he going to persecute himself again?

However, as a disciple, she still has to listen to her master's words. Moreover, after receiving the master's strict training, Yan Que feels that she is obviously much stronger than before.

"Come out!"

The two walked out of the gate of Shunding City together, Zeng Yi walking in front, and Yan Que following behind. After walking for a while, Yan Que couldn't help but look back, looking at the city that was getting smaller and smaller in his field of vision, and felt extremely emotional in his heart.

Although this city has given her many bad memories, it is also the place where she has lived for several years. Now that she has left, she still has some reluctant feelings in her heart.

Goodbye, my hometown.

"By the way, Xiao Yanque, where is the sword over there that the master gave you?" Zeng Yi suddenly asked, interrupting Yanque's thoughts.

"I put the sword into the soul guide." Yanque came back to his senses and immediately replied. He looked at the ring on his hand and couldn't help but touch it.

This ring is a space soul guide. Zeng Yi killed a soul king and got it from his body. It happened to be given to Xiao Yanque.

This soul guide has three cubic meters of space inside, which can hold a lot of things. The first time I came into contact with such a magical thing, I was very happy for a long time.

"Take it out and put it on your back. You must carry this sword with you at all times, understand?" Zeng Yi said sternly.

"yes!"

Yan Que obediently took out the long sword and carried it behind her back. The long sword weighing more than fifty kilograms made her feel a lot of pressure.

It’s not pleasant to have to carry weight all the time while walking to your destination for such a long distance.

…

Because I was training and traveling at the same time, it had already taken seven days, but I still didn't reach the Soul Hunting Forest.

"Master...Master, can...can you rest?" Yan Que asked Zeng Yi weakly, panting and sweating profusely.

"Well, let's take a rest!" Zeng Yi saw her almost exhausted, nodded and agreed.

"Hoo~"

After hearing his master's promise, Yan Que instantly sheathed his sword and then slumped down on the ground. After swinging the sword with a heavy load a thousand times, he was so exhausted that he felt that his arms were numb and no longer part of his body.

In these seven days, Yan Que finally experienced what kind of hell training it was. The previous training in Shunding City was not even half as intense as this.

No wonder the master is so strong, it turns out that the master used to train like this too!

Yanque couldn't help but admire Zeng Yilai in his heart.

After resting for about ten minutes, Zeng Yi said to Yan Que: "Xiao Yan Que, look at the map. How long until we arrive?"

"Um."

Yan Que nodded, took out the map, looked at it, and said: "Master, according to the current progress of the journey, we will probably arrive tomorrow night."

"Tomorrow night..."

Zeng Yi nodded, then quickly touched Lan Qie with his right hand at his waist. Lan Qie unsheathed his sword in an instant, and an invisible sword energy tore through the airflow, as fast as lightning, and slashed high into the sky.

Zeng Yi's sudden behavior startled Yan Que.

After a while, a gray goshawk fell from the sky, and was caught steadily by Zeng Yi.

"Haha, it has been following me for so long. It seems that this eagle really wants to be our lunch!" Zeng Yi said with a smile.

"Xiao Yanque, I won't practice any more today. I'll hurry up and try to get there in the evening."

"Yes!" Yan Que couldn't help but get excited when he heard his master say this.

Looking at the lifeless goshawk in his hand, Zeng Yi frowned.

I always feel that there is some uneasiness in my heart.
