"Xiao Qiu, it's getting late. We should go down." Dugu Yan stood beside Ye Qiu, saying this and turning to walk towards the edge of the cliff.
"Sister Yan Yan, wait a little longer."
Ye Qiu's slightly awkward voice sounded.
Dugu Yan was startled for a moment. Turning her head to look at Ye Qiu, who was lying on the ground like the Chinese character 'tree' (wood), she couldn't help but lightly spit.
Looking at Ye Qiu's somewhat hopeful gaze.
Dugu Yan's face flushed crimson. After a moment of hesitation, a hint of slyness flashed in her eyes.
Smiling softly, she knelt beside Ye Qiu.
She puffed her cheeks slightly, her red lips pursed. Her slender, jade-like fingers lightly traced across Ye Qiu's chest. Just as they were about to reach a certain spot, Dugu Yan slowly leaned down again. Seeing Ye Qiu's bright eyes, she suddenly giggled and straightened up.
"Hehe~ I won't!"
Ye Qiu's expression changed slightly, looking somewhat resentful.
Didn't you say you'd take responsibility for me?
Sure enough, the prettier a woman is, the more she lies. She just said yes earlier.
Dugu Yan looked at Ye Qiu's sudden change in expression and laughed even more merrily, her full bosom swaying captivatingly. She lightly spat and said, "You handle it yourself. I'm going down to prepare breakfast for you first."
As her voice fell.
Dugu Yan brushed back her hair, revealing her flushed cheeks. She gave Ye Qiu a teasing look, then swayed her waist as she walked towards the cliff edge.
"Hurry up~"
Dugu Yan urged again, then leaped directly down. Her purple hair scattered as she slowly flew downwards.
This was a soul bone Dugu Bo had found for her.
According to Dugu Bo, it seemed to be a treasure of that fellow Xue Xing, a ten-thousand-year right leg bone specifically offered to him as a tribute. He hadn't expected it would give Dugu Yan the ability to fly.
"Tsk, she's learned bad things."
"After giving her something 'warm' to eat, she didn't get addicted, but I keep wanting to feed her more..."
Ye Qiu looked at the morning sun slowly rising in the east, raised his hand to slightly shield his eyes from the dazzling light, his face filled with a helpless yet somewhat greedy smile.
More than a month had passed.
Now, Ye Qiu's soul power cultivation had reached level forty-three.
Apart from soul power.
Ye Qiu found that his physical strength had increased again.
According to Dugu Bo.
Every time his Venom Martial Soul possessed someone, it would slightly transform the host.
Over time.
The other party's talent and physical strength also unknowingly became stronger.
Furthermore.
Ah Yin's main body had already reached a hundred years of cultivation.
Providing Ye Qiu with a healing soul skill called 'Endless Life'.
It converted soul power into life force.
The healing ability depended on the soul power output.
This point was somewhat redundant with his Venom ability.
It wasn't useless though. This way, Ye Qiu's healing ability became even stronger. Even if someone only had one breath left, as long as they were covered by his Venom, they could be saved.
As if thinking of something amusing.
Ye Qiu sat up.
Within the second soul ring beneath him, the phantom of the Blue Silver Emperor flickered, and several wrist-thick Blue Silver Emperor vines grew out of the ground.
"Blue Silver Entanglement!"
Swish!
A stone nearby was suddenly wrapped up, then flung to the side.
"Haha... When Xiaosan sees this move of mine, his expression will definitely be wonderful!"
Ye Qiu smiled strangely.
Blue Silver Entanglement didn't need any soul skill at all.
He could already use Venom Entanglement, and now this was the authentic Blue Silver Entanglement!
Coupled with his own poison ability, it was simply a perfect replica.
Tang Xiaosan's signature soul skill.
Your grandpa learned it after just a few days of practice. As expected of Tang Xiaosan's wild dad.
Once his body had calmed down enough.
Ye Qiu didn't linger either. He stood up, stretched his body, and with Venom possessing him, instantly jumped down the cliff. He didn't use any teleportation; it was simple and crude. Eight tentacles suddenly extended from behind him, their tips hardened and stabbed into the rock wall.
"Haha... Eight Spider Lances!"
Ye Qiu became increasingly satisfied with his fourth soul skill.
Swoosh!
Reaching the bottom of the valley, Ye Qiu retracted the Eight Spider Lances he had manifested, activated Teleportation, and quickly arrived at the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
There.
Ah Yin, who was originally only a foot tall, now exceeded one meter.
And with the output of soul power, her branches and leaves could also lengthen, allowing for some simple combat.
She was a hundred-year soul beast after all.
As soon as Ye Qiu approached, the Blue Silver Emperor's branches quickly extended, reaching out to wrap around his wrist and pull him towards the Blue Silver Emperor.
Ye Qiu smiled and stood beside the Blue Silver Emperor, his hand turning black and wrapping around the branch. Immediately, a gentle voice tinged with slight annoyance came through.
"Ye Qiu, you haven't come to chat with me for a long time!"
Ah Yin sat cross-legged in the darkness, her heart filled with overflowing resentment. It was fine when she was asleep before, but now that she was awake and all alone, how could she bear not talking for days!
"Didn't I have things to do?"
Ye Qiu chuckled softly.
Ah Yin habitually scanned Ye Qiu's memories. For some reason, while her face flushed, she also felt a bit of inexplicable sourness in her heart, and couldn't help but coldly snort and curse.
"Hmph! You pervert..."
Ye Qiu naturally knew what Ah Yin had seen, and smilingly defended himself:
"How am I a pervert?"
"Sister Yan Yan is my fiancée. Spending a few days exploring each other and leaving behind some unforgettable memories before parting is perfectly normal, isn't it?"
Ye Qiu was telling the truth; he didn't feel there was anything wrong with himself.
It was Ah Yin who had been constantly pestering him this past month, not knowing what to talk about during chats, just staring at him blankly.
Or perhaps she was being exploited by Ye Qiu, turning into a massage therapist. Ye Qiu did want to help her massage as well, but she wasn't cooperative and couldn't enjoy this blessing.
Afraid that Ye Qiu would 'do' her.
"You... how is that normal? How could you let her do that..."
Ah Yin's face was flushed with embarrassment.
Although Ye Qiu had long fantasized about some of Dugu Yan's actions in his mind, they were truly a bit much for her to accept.
Why would a girl need to work so hard at home?
Wouldn't Dugu Yan's throat feel uncomfortable?
Wouldn't her feet ache?
"Tch, who told you to look randomly."
Ye Qiu curled his lips.
In his heart, however, he deliberately imagined what kind of radiance Ah Yin would possess when she undressed. He said teasingly, "Speaking of which, you've already seen me naked. When... will you show me yours?"
"Shut up! Go to hell!"
Ah Yin let out a furious shout of embarrassment, and the branch wrapped around Ye Qiu's wrist began to retract.
"Why be so stingy... I'll take you away from here tomorrow."
Their connection was broken.
Only Ye Qiu's lingering voice echoed in the darkness.
Ah Yin's world lost its color again. Cupping her pretty face, which was burning hot, her azure eyes were filled with shyness.
Gritting her teeth incessantly.
"This guy... what's in his head? Where did he get so many messy ways to play?"
...
--
"Heh, little one."
Ye Qiu couldn't help but laugh. As soon as he turned around, he saw Dugu Yan glaring at him angrily.
"Xiao Qiu!"
"Why are you playing with that plant again? Come over here quickly!"
