Chapter 65: Zhu Zhuqing's Shock! Knowing There's No Future, Still Wanting to Ask! Arriving at Soto City!
(P.S.: Sigh, the first chapter posted yesterday was revised… it might be a little strange, I hope the readers understand!)
"Zhuqing, what are you staring at?"
"Let's go~"
Chen Qingling smiled at Zhu Zhuqing, motioning for her to follow.
"Oh, oh, oh…"
Zhu Zhuqing followed closely behind Chen Qingling, her icy heart gradually warmed by a wave of heat.
This was the first time she'd met someone who was kind to her.
With a companion on the road, Chen Qingling no longer felt lonely.
They continued onward, traveling until late into the night before finding an empty spot to set up camp.
Chen Qingling waved her hand, producing the pre-prepared tent and other necessities from her wristband.
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned, witnessing the sudden appearance of the tent and other supplies.
Did she just create them out of thin air?
The thought was cut short. Zhu Zhuqing looked down and saw the wristband Chen Qingling was wearing.
The wristband on Qingling's wrist was likely a Soul Tool.
Soul Tools were quite rare on the Douluo Continent.
Those who possessed a Soul Tool were definitely of high status.
It's either from the Three Sects or someone from Spirit Hall.
Noticing Zhu Zhuqing's surprised look, Chen Qingling didn't care at all and explained, "Well, the bracelet I'm wearing is a Soul Tool."
"Yeah, it's a hundred cubic meters big."
"Huh?!" Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened, her expression shocked, unable to believe the number she'd heard.
A hundred cubic meters?
How big would that even be?
This… this is just too ridiculous!
"Qingling… you… you wouldn't happen to be from Spirit Hall, would you?"
Chen Qingling shook her head, "I'm not."
"Then... a member of a sect?"
"Well... not exactly? If I don't take a master, I'm not really considered part of a sect."
Zhu Zhuqing: ...…
Not taking a master? Not considered part of a sect?
In other words, Qingling was a spirit master without any affiliations!
Then her family must be some incredibly famous, important people!
At the very least, they should be at the Title Douluo level! Just...
Zhu Zhuqing didn't recall any Title Douluo on the continent with the surname Chen!
It was truly strange.
At that moment, Chen Qingling seemed veiled, mysterious and unfathomable.
"Zhuqing, you should be from the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire, right?"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly, not denying it, "Yes."
Chen Qingling blinked, "Then do you know about the outstanding women of the Star Luo Empire?"
As a member of the royal family, she should have access to good information, right?
"This… I don't know." Zhu Zhuqing forced a smile, she was having a bit of trouble keeping up with Qingling's train of thought.
She thought he'd ask about her, but instead, he asked a completely unrelated question.
"Alright."
Chen Qingling deflated, knowing she wouldn't get anything from Zhu Zhuqing, but still wanting to ask, considering her identity.
She just missed her family so much.
She longed to experience the feeling of a family reunion.
Chen Qingling looked dejected, a glimmer of light flickering in her eyes.
"Qingling... what's wrong?"
Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's concern, Chen Qingling forced a smile, "Nothing, just thinking about some sad things."
She didn't want to let her bad mood affect Zhu Zhuqing.
For a moment, the atmosphere became tense, and neither of them spoke.
After a moment, a sound of hunger rang out.
Grrr…
Zhu Zhuqing's delicate face blushed slightly, and she covered her stomach, embarrassed.
"You're hungry? That's perfect, I was about to eat dinner too. Let's eat together."
Chen Qingling said with a smile, and, for the second time, she took out the food she had stockpiled from her wristband. Stored in a Soul Tool, the food was perfectly preserved and wouldn't spoil.
A fragrance of rice and white-cut chicken wafted over.
Gurulu!
Gurulu!
Zhu Zhuqing's stomach rumbled again, and she couldn't help but swallow when she saw the food Chen Qingling had produced.
She hadn't eaten for several days.
This put a considerable strain on a seven-year-old girl who was still developing.
"Come on, eat up, don't be shy. I have plenty."
With Chen Qingling's reassurance, Zhu Zhuqing happily accepted her offer.
She devoured the rice and delicious white-cut chicken mouthful after mouthful, eating without any regard for her image.
"Hehe, how is it? Zhuqing, is this poached chicken delicious? Do you like it?"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded. "Delicious. It's the best chicken I've ever eaten."
"Good, I'm glad you like it. I made it myself," Chen Qingling said proudly, raising her head, very confident in her cooking skills.
Everyone who tasted it praised it.
Xiao Wu didn't know how many times she had eaten it.
However, a dramatic event occurred during this time. Qingling forgot Xiao Wu's true identity and made her a spicy rabbit head.
After she finished eating, Xiao Wu asked what the dish was.
Chen Qingling only then realized what had happened. After hesitating for a long time, she revealed the name of the dish, which directly silenced Xiao Wu.
Then, she left behind a very satisfied "delicious".
Soon after, Zhu Zhuqing was full and content, patting her slightly swollen belly.
"Qingling, I really don't know how to thank you..."
Zhu Zhuqing gritted her teeth, feeling like she owed Qingling more and more.
She hadn't noticed that at this moment, Chen Qingling was staring intently at Zhu Zhuqing's chest, which was larger than other girls her age.
Even though she was several years older than Zhu Zhuqing, her own development wasn't as good!
It was really infuriating!
Perhaps it was because Chen Qingling's gaze was too intense, Zhu Zhuqing followed her gaze and looked down.
Her cold face immediately flushed red.
"Zhuqing, can I ask you something?"
"What is it?"
"Can you tell me the secret? I don't want to be so small anymore."
"Ah..." Zhu Zhuqing's mind went blank, as if struck by lightning.
After a long pause, Zhu Zhuqing pursed her lips and said something that made Chen Qingling despair.
"Well... I don't know either. I guess I just developed earlier."
Chen Qingling was extremely envious.
"Alright, it's getting late. Get some rest. We still have almost half a day's journey tomorrow to get to Soto City."
"Mm."
The night passed without incident.
When the first ray of sunlight shone, Chen Qingling and Zhu Zhuqing woke up simultaneously.
"Morning, Zhuqing."
"Morning, Qingling."
After a simple greeting, Chen Qingling packed up the tent and other items, and led Zhu Zhuqing towards Soto City.
Several hours later.
After experiencing many hardships, Chen Qingling and Zhu Zhuqing finally arrived at their destination, Soto City.
Soto City truly lived up to its reputation as a major city. The gate was more than twice the size of Notting City's, and the flow of people entering and exiting was several times greater.
"Whew, whew, whew..."
Chen Qingling gasped for breath, stretching out her arms. "Finally made it to Soto City! That was quite a journey!"
Most of the trip had been spent on the road, with the exception of the encounter with Zhu Zhuqing, where she helped her drive off the people who were pursuing her.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that she hadn't really experienced any training.
"Halt, you two. You'll need to pay two silver Soul Coins as an entrance fee to enter the city."
"Here."
Chen Qingling, who was not short on money, didn't care at all. After paying the entrance fee, she took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and walked into Soto City.
