Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible

Chapter 879 Is the God King strong?

Seeing Zhang Xue reject her gift, Lin Lan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her heart. She lowered her head, her eyes fell on the silver bracelet on her wrist, and she was thoughtful. This bracelet has no special meaning to her, but it is so cherished in Zhang Xue's eyes. This made Lin Lan start to think about how important the emotional bond between friends is to a little human girl like Zhang Xue.

Lin Lan raised her head, a trace of desire and curiosity flashing in her black eyes. "What about...the things my friends gave me?" she asked softly, as if searching for an unknown answer.

 “Friend?” Zhang Xue was slightly startled. This word was both familiar and unfamiliar to her. In her world, her grandfather is her only relative and her most trusted friend. But apart from her grandfather, she had almost no chance to establish deep friendships with other peers. Therefore, when Lin Lan mentioned the word "friend", Zhang Xue couldn't help but feel a subtle resonance in his heart.

She stared at Lin Lan blankly, and began to recall the legends and stories about knights in her mind. In her imagination, knights always travel together and face various difficulties and challenges together. There is an unbreakable trust and friendship between them, and they support each other and never leave. This kind of relationship made Zhang Xue yearn for it, and it also made her start to think about her relationship with Lin Lan.

 However, Lin Lan’s situation is completely different from Zhang Xue’s. As a God King, she has a distinguished background and is the granddaughter of the third elder. She has had an extremely strong affinity for the ice element since she was a child, which has enabled her to make amazing progress in spiritual practice. However, this also caused her to appear somewhat lonely among her peers. Other children gradually distanced themselves from her because they could not keep up with her. Although there are always many elves around him, Lin Lan has never found the kind of friend with whom he can truly make friends.

Lin Lan doesn’t know what friends really mean. She only knew that every time she saw those elves playing in groups in the woods, she would feel an inexplicable feeling of envy in her heart. She longs to be able to laugh and play with her friends as carefree as those elves. However, this seems to be an unattainable luxury for this God King who has had high hopes since he was a child.

At this moment, facing Zhang Xue, an innocent little human girl with a dream of becoming a knight, Lin Lan suddenly had an inexplicable impulse. She wants to understand Zhang Xue's world and experience the emotional bond with her friends. Maybe for her this is a road to the unknown world, but for Zhang Xue this may be the first real friend in her life.

Thinking of this, Lin Lan's face showed a firm but gentle look. She reached out and gently held Zhang Xue's wrist and put the silver bracelet on her hand. Zhang Xue was startled by this sudden move, but when she saw the sincerity and expectation in Lin Lan's eyes, the hesitation and concern in her heart disappeared instantly.

“Is this...given to me?” Zhang Xue looked at the shining bracelet on her wrist in disbelief with a hint of trembling in her voice.

Lin Lan smiled and nodded: "Yes, we are friends now. Let this bracelet serve as a testimony of our friendship."

Hearing these words, tears filled Zhang Xue's eyes. She never imagined that she would meet such a special friend in this fantasy world. This bracelet is not only a gift but also a precious symbol of trust and friendship. She will cherish this hard-won friendship and work hard to become a person worthy of this friendship.
