Chapter 57 - chapter 56

Ye Qiu's pupils shrank, as if the seed had been transferred into his mouth.

He pushed Xiao Lan aside and stood up.

"Little Blue, what's wrong with you—gurgle!"

He swallowed the green light. It instantly turned into a warm current that flowed through his body and gathered at his heart, making his heartbeat grow even stronger.

Ye Qiu pressed a hand to his throat, trying to vomit.

"Brother, don't be nervous. That… that was something Xiao Lan conjured…"

Xiao Lan pursed her lips and knelt on the bed, not daring to look at him. The redness on her face spread all the way down to her neck.

"This… this is your new ability?!" Ye Qiu pointed at his mouth, still shocked.

"This is your new ability?"

"N-no! That's not it!"

Xiao Lan covered her face and collapsed onto the blanket, too embarrassed to say anything more.

"…"

Ye Qiu also fell silent.

"Brother!"

Xiao Lan's voice suddenly echoed inside his heart.

Ye Qiu frowned and looked at Xiao Lan, who was lying on the bed. Her lips hadn't moved at all.

"Little Blue is speaking directly in your heart!"

"In my heart?"

Ye Qiu lifted his clothes. Sure enough, the Blue Silver Emperor mark on his chest was flashing faintly.

"Now, as long as brother thinks about what he wants to say to Xiao Lan in his heart, Xiao Lan will be able to hear it!"

Xiao Lan, who had been buried in the blanket, raised her head. The lingering blush on her face hadn't faded, but her mouth still hadn't moved.

Ye Qiu calmed himself. What exactly is going on?

The Blue Silver Emperor mark on his chest continued to flash.

After a long while and some silent communication, Ye Qiu finally understood what Xiao Lan meant by that extraordinary ability.

Seed of Life.

Xiao Lan possessed a special ability—a seed condensed from a mixture of spiritual power, soul power, and life force.

This seed could replace Xiao Lan within Ye Qiu's body, meaning that even if Xiao Lan was no longer present, Ye Qiu could still use her soul skills.

Furthermore, Little Blue's survivability had been enhanced once again. Even if her soul were annihilated, she could be resurrected using the Seed of Life.

As long as Ye Qiu didn't die, it would be extremely difficult for her to die—even if she wanted to!

"So this is the new ability you were talking about?" Ye Qiu looked at her happily.

"How about that? Isn't it amazing?"

Xiao Lan's face, which had been flushed with embarrassment, bloomed into a bright smile.

"It really is impressive… it's just that earlier, you…"

Ye Qiu pointed at himself, looking at her with a strange expression.

"Ah? That—that's because the Seed of Life… uh… can't be exposed to light!"

Little Blue's face turned red as she stammered. Then she suddenly became confident.

"Yes! It can't be exposed to light!"

"Really?"

"Of course it's true! Little Blue wouldn't lie!"

Seeing her forced smile, Ye Qiu frowned slightly. He felt that she was lying—but he had no proof.

He stared at her quietly.

"Alright."

Hearing Ye Qiu's words, Xiao Lan patted her chest in relief.

After understanding everything, Ye Qiu decided to test Xiao Lan's soul skill. He opened his palm, examining it carefully, and felt extremely satisfied with what he had gained.

This so-called Seed of Life is basically a complete resurrection card for Little Blue… truly powerful.

Suddenly, a beautiful golden-blue Blue Silver Grass appeared in his palm, and two yellow soul rings rose beneath his feet.

"Second Soul Skill—Blue Silver Fragrance!"

As soon as he spoke, the second spirit ring lit up.

A faint, almost imperceptible mist spread from Ye Qiu's body.

The closer one was to him, the richer and more intense the fragrance became—and the stronger the detoxification and removal of negative effects.

"It really works!"

Ye Qiu smiled broadly as he smelled the fragrance coming from his own body.

"Brother~"

Xiao Lan leapt forward and landed in his arms, wrapping her arms around his waist and neck.

She gently sniffed his neck.

Wow… you smell so good!

"Hey! You—stop it, it tickles!" Ye Qiu tilted his head away.

"If you don't hold me, Xiao Lan will fall!"

She grabbed Ye Qiu's hand and placed it on her waist, completely ignoring his protests.

"How about that? From now on, Xiao Lan can fight together with you!"

She raised her little fist seriously, putting on a fierce expression.

"Uh…"

Ye Qiu awkwardly wrapped his arms around her waist.

"What are you fighting for? You only have support-type soul skills. Get down right now."

"Little Blue won't get down! What's wrong with you holding me? You're my older brother!"

She pouted stubbornly.

"Hmph! Maybe not now, but I'll have offensive soul skills later~"

"Uh… hehe… that makes sense."

Ye Qiu laughed dryly and stopped urging her.

Changing the subject, he said,

"But I'm going to take a shower. You should get down first."

He untangled her and placed her back on the bed.

Watching Ye Qiu walk away, Xiao Lan covered her face and rolled around on the bed.

Finally… I got to kiss him again!

Her little face was burning red, but one thing was strange—tiny specks of green light flickered between her eyebrows.

...

When Ye Qiu came out, she immediately bumped into his arms again, grinning.

"Hehe~ how about Little Blue sleeps with you?"

Ye Qiu, fresh from the bath, nearly broke into a sweat. Why did her words sound so strange?

He put an arm around her waist and tucked her into bed.

"Go to sleep properly. I'm going to cultivate for a while."

Ignoring her unreasonable request, he sat cross-legged and focused on stabilizing his newly increased soul power.

However, when Ye Qiu finally lay down, she was still awake.

The moment he lay down, Xiao Lan snuggled over and squeezed herself into his arms.

The fragrance drifted into his nose.

"Hey! Can't you sleep properly? Turn off your second soul skill!"

"Little Blue isn't using her second soul skill! This… this is something she was born with…"

Her warm face pressed against Ye Qiu's cheek, leaving a cool, moist sensation.

"Good night! Hehe~ Mwah~"

"Xiao Lan! Don't go too far… I just washed my face!"

...

Over the next few days, Ye Qiu and Xiao Lan indulged themselves in Tian Dou City.

The rats merely kept watch from afar and didn't make any other moves.

During this time, Ye Qiu used the blueprints of the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow he had obtained earlier and had it assembled at a blacksmith's shop. He also purchased several daggers similar to kunai.

The Zhuge Repeating Crossbow was extremely powerful—more than enough to deal with Soul Masters lacking speed or defense.

"Little Blue, after you finish eating today, get some rest. Tomorrow we're going to Sunset Forest."

"I… I understand! Mm~"

"Eat slowly."

At the moment, they were in a restaurant. Xiao Lan was wolfing down her food, while Ye Qiu gently patted her back.

---------

Early the next morning—

Ye Qiu carefully pried off the two short legs wrapped around him and looked helplessly at Xiao Lan lying on top of him. Her clothes were disheveled, and drool hung from the corner of her mouth.

He reached out and flicked her smooth forehead.

"Ah~!"

Her fair skin instantly turned red.

She clutched her forehead and looked at him with watery eyes.

"Brother~ why did you hit Xiao Lan again? Don't you love Xiao Lan anymore?"

"Alright, get up. I already said we're going to Sunset Forest today…"

Ye Qiu pinched her little face, wondering if he had spoiled her too much—she was always restless at night.

...

"Brother, why aren't you carrying Little Blue?"

"You're not little anymore…"
