Sign In To The Goddess Harem In Douluo

Chapter 8: Chapter -8 Off to the Appointment.



Chapter -8.

Wow, can you believe it's been six years already?

In the back mountains of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, a familiar voice echoed through the valley, sounding a bit grumpy. 

"That lazy kid is slacking off again! Have you learned the soul power forging method I taught you yet?"

A huge bone dragon soared through the sky, and on its head, Gu Rong looked down with a frown, searching for something—or someone.

Not long after, Sword Douluo Chen Xin arrived on his sword and asked, "Hey, Old Man Gu, where's Ye Chen? Did he figure out that new sword intent I assigned last month?"

Gu Rong scratched his sparse hair and replied, "I haven't seen that kid in half a month! All he does is eat, drink, and have fun instead of practicing. I just don't get it. He's got such amazing talent, but he's so unmotivated. It's driving me crazy!"

Chen Xin sighed, shaking his head. 

After that duel, Ye Chen had settled into life at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and these two old guys had taken him under their wing, sharing everything they knew. 

But the frustrating part? Ye Chen was quite the little rascal and had zero interest in cultivating.

Just yesterday, he took Rong Rong to the river to catch fish, and the day before that, they were climbing trees to collect bird eggs. Not to mention the time they spent on a deserted island, just goofing off for months!

In six years, Ye Chen had been up to all sorts of silly antics, and not a single one involved training.

What really got under Chen Xin's skin was that Ye Chen's soul power was still growing like crazy despite all this. He couldn't help but mutter, "If that kid would just put in a little effort—just a smidge—I'd be happy."

"But will he? Sigh, I just hope that when he goes out to train, he'll be a bit more sensible."

The Bone Douluo shook his head, clearly not convinced.

Meanwhile, inside the bell tower of the outer building complex of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ye Chen lay beneath a giant clock, gazing through the colorful glass at the world outside.

"It's been six years. I wonder how you're doing, Xiao San?"

Time had flown by, and today was the day he promised to meet Tang San. It was time to get ready for his trip to Soto City, where the system had set its third check-in target.

"Who's Xiao San? Do you have siblings outside?" 

Ning Rongrong, leaning against Ye Chen, looked curious. Over the past six years, she had wanted to get closer to him, but Ye Chen always said she was too young, so they kept their distance.

With Ye Chen so close, Ning Rongrong felt an urge to jump into his arms, but their most intimate moment had only been a little kiss.

"Xiao San is a good buddy from my hometown. We grew up together," Ye Chen said, gently stroking Ning Rongrong's long brown-gray hair. The little girl he once knew had blossomed into a stunning young woman, her delicate face glowing and her deep blue pleated skirt giving her a regal vibe.

Even though she was only 12, Ning Rongrong looked like a big girl—innocent yet captivating.

Noticing Ye Chen's gaze, Ning Rongrong suddenly sat up and playfully blew him a kiss, asking, "Am I beautiful?"

"Ahem!" 

Ye Chen cleared his throat awkwardly and quickly looked away. 

This little tease had definitely grown more charming over the years, and her playful antics were becoming harder to handle. If he hadn't gotten used to it, he might have lost his cool by now.

After spending a few days at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ye Chen packed his things and got ready to leave.

On this sunny day, the two Douluos, along with Ning Fengzhi, looked at Ye Chen and Ning Rongrong standing before them, offering their reluctant advice.

"Ye Chen, you better take good care of Rongrong. If I find even a single hair out of place, you'll be in big trouble."

"Disciple, when you're out training, remember to focus on your cultivation. There are always stronger people out there, so be careful. If you can't win, just run, okay?"

"Rongrong, listen to Ye Chen while you're out. Try not to throw too many tantrums. Your dad can't take care of you out there; you need to be careful."

With the elders' concerns weighing on him, Ye Chen could only nod in agreement, while Rongrong seemed super excited, playfully clinging to his arm and laughing.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Jian, Grandpa Gu, Father! You can trust Ye Chen to take great care of me!" 

With that, she waved goodbye and pulled Ye Chen onto the carriage, heading towards Soto City. "This girl really adores Ye Chen! Luckily, he's got a steady head on his shoulders; otherwise, I'd be worried…" Ning Fengzhi smiled and shook his head as he watched them leave, then turned back to walk with the two Douluos.

Soto City, located at the border of the Balak Kingdom and the Fasno Province, took Ye Chen and the others over a month to reach without any hiccups.

As they entered the bustling main city, the lively streets were filled with people. It was a melting pot of folks from both kingdoms, creating a vibrant atmosphere.

Ning Rongrong's shopping instincts kicked in as she pulled Ye Chen along, excitedly pointing out all the shops. 

"Ye Chen, do you think this earring looks good?"

"And this dress? It's so different from what I usually see!"

Ye Chen forced a smile and replied, "Yeah, they all look great! If you like it, go ahead and buy it."

Before long, Ye Chen was loaded down with shopping bags, looking like a walking tree.

"Ye Chen!"

Just as Rongrong was about to enter a big shop, a voice—both familiar and unfamiliar—called out from nearby.

Pushing aside the bags blocking his view, Ye Chen couldn't help but grin. "Xiao San! Long time no see!" He wanted to greet him but found his hands were full.

Dressed in blue, Tang San approached, followed by Xiao Wu, who had her hair styled in a playful braid.

"Long time no see! Looks like you've been doing well these past years," Tang San chuckled, noticing Ye Chen's messy appearance and the cheerful Ning Rongrong by his side.

Ye Chen silently summoned his soul power and stored all the shopping bags into his storage ring, shrugging as he said, "Sigh, someone thinks this is the best way to show I care. It's a bit of a headache!"

With his hands free, the four of them headed towards a hotel to catch up.

The architecture in the Douluo Continent had a Nordic flair, with Roman columns and crystal chandeliers in the hotel lobby, giving it a modern vibe.

"Boss, we'd like double bed top-notch suite, please."

Xiao Wu winked at Ning Rongrong and teased, "Double bed? Have you two already...?"

"No, no, you're reading too much into it!" Ye Chen quickly interjected, but Ning Rongrong just pouted and said, "We often sleep together, and Daddy said not to waste money when we're out, right?"

Feeling a bit awkward with Rongrong clinging to his arm, Ye Chen smiled shyly and nodded, "You're right! We should definitely save money, haha!"

Tang San and Xiao Wu couldn't help but laugh. They had seen Rongrong buy a bunch of impractical things; if that wasn't wasteful, then renting ten more rooms would be a steal!

While they were joking around, a tall, blond guy strutted over, flanked by two stunning women, making everyone else envious.

The most striking thing about him was his unusual double-pupil eyes.

With no rooms left, the young man shouted at the front desk staff, "You're new here, right? Get your manager out here!"

Tang San couldn't take it anymore and stepped forward to remind him that they were there first, but the guy just brushed him off with a haughty response: "I see you're soul masters too. Come on, I'll give you a chance to make me back off."

Seeing this, Xiao Wu and Tang San were ready to fight, but the guy ignored them and pointed at Ye Chen, saying, "You're the strongest here, so you should duel with me."

"Me?" Ye Chen scratched his head and shrugged, "You should really pick Tang San instead."

The blond guy sneered, "What, scared?"

"Yep, very scared!" Ye Chen nodded, then chuckled, "I'm scared that if I make a move, you'll be lying down when I leave."

Note : Guys, some power stones will be really helpful.
