The Sovereign Dragon Ring

The Sovereign Dragon Ring
Episode 85's



Fragrant Pavilion Road was filled with people, but Yale, George, and Reynolds could clearly and clearly tell who the woman was, not too far away from them. Since Linley and Alice had been together for a long time now, Yale, George, and Reynolds had all been officially introduced to Alice. Naturally, they recognized him.


"It's Alice. "Said George in a low voice.


Right at this moment, Alice walked hand in hand with the other young man, a slight smile on her face. If Linley was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this young man was Kalan.


". "The killer's face is on Yale's face.


Reynolds was furious too. "The past two months, Linley had gone to his house many times, waiting bitterly for him. He had recorded all of his activities in the memory crystal as well, like an idiot. And he even told us that in the future, he would marry this Alice. F* this ck! ”


"In what way does our Third Bro not deserve him?" George was also getting upset.


Yale sneered. “It is not convenient for us to interfere. We will go to Heaven Water Jade, and we will talk to Third Bro about it when he returns. The most important thing we have to do now is to help Third Bro mentally prepare for this. If he's not ready? I'm afraid he won't be able to take this blow. ”


George and Reynolds all nodded as well.


……


Inside their private rooms in Jade Water Heaven, Yale, George, and Reynolds all sat down, frowning in their faces. They did not ask prostitutes to accompany them, and the only thing in their glasses was juice. They were afraid they might get drunk, and would not behave appropriately when dealing with Linley.


"I know Third Bro well. "Said George worried. “She doesn't usually talk much, and she works hard too. There are so many girls in our school who are after him. He never received any of them. But a man like him, once he falls in love with someone, he will fall much harder than you, Boss, or you, Fourth Bro. ”


Yale and Reynolds both nodded.


For Yale and Reynolds, losing a girl meant getting a new one. That's not a big deal at all. But in this past year, every day, when they were joking with Linley, they could tell from Linley's reaction that he had actually developed sincere feelings for Alice.


“This pisses me off. "Yale drank all the juice in his cup at once.


Reynolds grunting. "Bo Yale, don't be so angry. It was just a girl. Third Bro will be in a lot of pain this time, but once he is done, everything will be fine. ”


Yale nodded as well.


Yale, Reynolds, and George were all members of large clans, and thus they were influenced from young. For Reynolds and George, it wasn't too bad, because their clans had strict rules. But Yale has been buried in women since he was a child.


Time passes, one second at a time, one minute at a time. Yale and the others sat quietly there.


One morning. With a squeak, the door opened. Linley walked over, smelling wine. "Hey. You guys still here? ”


Yale laughed out loud. “We're waiting for you. ”


"Third brother, you didn't wait for Alice all this time, did you?" George said in a relaxed tone.


Linley nodded silently, and then sat down. "Aren't you drinking alcohol tonight?" Bowing down, Linley took out a strong liquor bottle from the chest, and immediately poured himself a cup.


"Sister three, we need to talk to you about something. "Yale said with a smile.


"Talk. "Linley was in a very foul mood.


Yale said softly, “Tonight, when we were on the street, we saw a girl. She looks a lot like your Alice. Be honest. We were a bit far away, so we couldn't say it clearly. But the girl was holding hands with another guy. ”


"The Lies . "Said Linley with a steel tone that made no argument.


Yale could not help but start.


Reynolds clapped Linley on the shoulder while laughing. "Third Brother. We're all men. As men, how can we let women ride our heads? Alice hasn't appeared several times now. If I were you, I would have thrown it away a long time ago. Even if she kneels in front of me, I won't care about her. ”


"Bro Fourth, you're just a jerk. What would you know? "Said Linley with a laugh, and then he drank a large cup of liquor. "Come on, enough chatting. I'm in a bad mood. Drink with. ”


Reynolds, Yale, and George exchanged glances. They could do nothing but sit and drink with Linley.


Early the next morning, Linley, Yale, George, and Reynolds all slept, stretched across the table. Linley was the first to wake up.


Looking at his three good friends, a bitter smile was on Linley's face. In his heart, he muttered to himself, "Board Yale, Second Brother, Fourth Brother. I understand what you guys are thinking. In order for Alice to miss our promise two, three times this past, I also had a bad feeling, but. I don't want to. ”


Linley walked to the window, looking down.


It was five or six in the morning. Fenlai City seemed to have just woken up as well. Few people walked, prepared for work. Most people are still sleeping.


"Linley's. "Doehring Cowart flew out from within the Coiling Dragon ring.


Doehring Cowart forever wore a real long white robe. His white beard is forever long.


“Kakek Doehring's. "After seeing Doehring Cowart appear, Linley suddenly felt as if he himself was a lonely ship that had finally reached the harbor.


Glancing at the sleeping dormmate, Doehring Cowart laughed. "Linley, you have three very good friends. As far as the matters of the heart between men and women? I can only say this. In the 1300 years when I was alive, from what I saw, probably only one in ten would I have seen someone become successful in his first love. ”


“Grandfather Doehring, I understand. "Linley barely nodded. "But .. I trust him. ”


Doehring Cowart nodded as well. He no longer speaks.



In mid-November, Linley put on his backpack, made sure to secure the two memory crystals inside, and then headed to Fenlai City again, once again arriving at the two-story house.


"Uncle Hudd, is Alice back?" Linley said politely to the guard named Hudd.


Hudd shook his head. "No . It's been over a month since Miss Alice came back. He hasn't come back once. ”


"There's no time?" Linley frowned, a frown appearing on his forehead. "Then Uncle Hudd, I'll leave now. "Linley politely said goodbye.


"really. Maybe he's busy dealing with something and can't be free. "Linley's eyes suddenly became lively again.


Seeing this, Bebe could not help but wrinkle his little nose. "Boss, you're so hard hit by love that you're being stupid. Just a few words of support and you are very excited. ”


"You little punk. No alcohol for you today, as punishment. "Linley didn't know whether to laugh or cry.


But Linley also had to admit that after joking with Bebe, his mood improved.


……


November 29th. It was a blizzard day, and the snow covered everything white. Linley, Reynolds, Yale, and George were all sitting inside the carriage. The driver was someone belonging to the Yale merchant clan, and behind them were several knights escorting this statue of Linley.


"Third Brother. In the next few days, the year-end exams will come. I wonder if the person who once proclaimed the number one genius in our institution has become the magus of the sixth rank. "Yale chuckles.


George and Reynolds are very proud.


Because the week before? Linley had reached the sixth rank realm.


In fact, Linley had reached the fourth rank when he was 13, the 5th rank when he was 14, and now, he was almost 17. After two and a half years, Linley finally made the transition from being a magus of the fifth rank to the sixth rank.


Two and a half years!


What about that Dixie, who was previously considered the Institute's top genius?


Dixie became a magus of the fifth rank when she was twelve, but now she was also around seventeen years old. It's been five years. Honestly speaking, Dixie's progress was also very fast. However, compared to Linley, who was aided by the Straight Chisel School's stonecarving technique, he was much slower.


If, at the end of the exam year, Linley had reached the sixth rank while Dixie had not, then Linley would be known as the undisputed number one genius of the Ernst Institute.


“Third brother, try and smile. Being a magus of the sixth rank is something you should be happy with. “Say Reynolds is encouraging.


Linley turned his lips.


"You call that a smile?" Reynolds deliberately tried to tease Linley.


Linley finally smiled. “Alright, Fourth Brother, let me be quiet for a moment. "Linley had already decided that this time, no matter what, she would meet Alice. If he couldn't see her in Fenlai City, he would go straight to the Wellen Institute to look for her. ”


No matter what, he had to come face to face with Alice and solve the problem.


Opening the window of the carriage, Linley let a gust of cold air inside. He couldn't help but squint. Outside, everything was covered in white, and the sky itself was filled with feathers like snow. While enjoying the scenery of winter, time passed quickly, and they arrived at Fenlai City.


After delivering the three sculptures to the Proulx Gallery, the four of them ate, then parted temporarily.


Now, Linley's income was already extremely high. Almost every month, he could collect around 20,000 pieces of gold. So Linley didn't really care about money anymore. Carrying his backpack with two memory crystals, Linley headed straight for Alice's house.


"Boss, if I remember correctly, this is your fourth time heading to Fenlai City with this memory crystal, right?" Bebe said disapprovingly. “How about you give it to Delia? I prefer Delia. ”


From October until now, this was indeed the fourth time Linley had brought this memory crystal ball to Fenlai City.


“It's enough, Bebe. "Say Linley with a frown.


Walking on the snow-covered road, crackling sounds could be heard with each step Linley took. In a short time, he arrived at that familiar two-story house.


After looking and talking briefly with Hudd, Linley could only turn around and leave.


"Once again, don't come back. "Linley frowned. "The Wellen Institute!" Linley immediately decided to go to the Wellen Institute.


Fenlai City. The Fragrant Pavilion Road.


Alice walks the streets, holding hands with Kalan. Kalan softly said, "Alice, aren't you planning to make things clear for Linley?"


"Maybe later . "Alice shook her head.


Kalan nodded and no longer spoke.


Looking at Alice, who was holding hands with him, Kalan could not help but smile. She grew up with Alice and was still a child with her. In her heart, she had always liked Alice, but she did not expect that Alice would be together with Linley so quickly.


When he first discovers that Alice and Linley are starting to date, Kalan explodes with rage.


Ever since he was a child, Kalan had always considered Alice to be his. Even if Linley had previously helped her, when it came to love, Kalan would not have retreated. So ...he used some small tricks to achieve what he wanted.


"Love at first sight? Hero rescues girl in distress? "They are filled with humiliation. “When faced with reality, all of it is as thin as a piece of white paper. ”


Holding Alice's hand, Kalan was completely satisfied.


"Alice, when do you think you're going to make things clear for Linley?" Kalan asked again. Kalan really did not want Alice and Linley to remain entangled for longer.


Alice shook her head. "I don't know either. But I believe that if I don't meet with Linley's older brother for a long period of time, in time, that feeling will fade. At that time, if I were to say goodbye to him, he wouldn't have such a strong reaction. ”


"You are right . After all, Linley saved us once. "Kalan nodded.


As they walked, they reached the intersection between Dry Road and Fragrant Pavilion Road. Kalan noticed that Alice suddenly came to a halt. He could not help but look at Alice curiously, but Alice, who looked surprised, was looking at a place on the Dry Road. Face pale. Kalan also turned his head ….


A young man, dressed in a white robe of the moon, stood there, not moving in the slightest. He looked at them, stunned. His face was completely colorless, as white as snow.


"Linley!" Kalan immediately frowned.
