"And Auntie also said that she would come back to pick up Sister Xiaowu and us after everything was over!"
"But so many years have passed, and there's still no news of Auntie."
"Sister Xiaowu couldn't wait any longer, so she risked transforming into human form and leaving this place to find Auntie!"
Da Ming finished speaking, but these few words left Ye Qiu with no clues.
He looked at it questioningly: "Da Ming, do you know that woman?"
Da Ming shook its head.
"She was wearing a bamboo hat, and we couldn't see her face clearly. We only knew she was a woman by judging from her voice and figure."
"Uh..." Ye Qiu scratched his head in annoyance. This was indeed strange.
"Didn't she have any other characteristics? Like a martial soul, cultivation level, or something like that!"
"Martial soul?" Da Ming paused, lowering its eyes in thought for a moment.
"That woman didn't fully summon her Martial Soul, but she had eight spider legs on her back and was holding a blood-red longsword filled with killing intent!"
"A blood-red longsword! Spider legs!"
Ye Qiu's eyes narrowed, recalling that Dugu Bo had also mentioned a blood-red longsword.
He already had an answer about the woman's identity.
"That's right!" Da Ming's voice suddenly rose, as if he had discovered something.
"What's wrong?"
Da Ming's eyes widened, feeling like he had grasped some clue.
"The domain she used is very similar to the one Tang Hao used last time! She's also a Title Douluo, very strong! And her Soul Rings are at least ten thousand years old, and she even has two hundred thousand-year Soul Rings!"
"At least ten thousand-year Soul Rings," Ye Qiu murmured, his expression somewhat serious.
That woman was indeed the current Pope of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong!
"Ye Qiu, do you know who that woman is?" Da Ming looked at Ye Qiu strangely, who was deep in thought.
"No, just some guesses,"
Ye Qiu waved his hand and answered with an embarrassed smile.
He didn't want to say anything more about this topic. With the Spirit Hall's power, even if he told them, it would only add to their troubles.
"Da Ming, thank you for telling me all this!"
"I'm taking Xiao
Wu and the others back soon. If you have time, I'll come and bother you often!" "Yes, you're always welcome here!" Da Ming responded in a muffled voice. It was quite bored here, and it was happy that Ye Qiu and the others came.
It didn't ask much about the mysterious woman; it trusted Ye Qiu to help Xiao Wu.
"Well, goodbye then! When Er Ming wakes up, please give him my regards."
Ye Qiu waved goodbye and turned to walk towards the Blue Silver Grassland in the distance.
Walking slowly along the road, Ye Qiu's heart was not at peace. He frowned and looked at the purple aura on the horizon. He was full of doubts. Why would Xiao Wu's mother willingly leave with Bibi Dong? Was she using Xiao Wu and the others as a threat? No ,
that didn't seem right! Based on his past understanding, Bibi Dong didn't seem like the type to abandon the soul rings and soul bones of Da Ming and Er Ming. Moreover, judging from her soul rings, she had definitely undergone the divine trial! And with a domain similar to Tang Hao's, the origin of that blood-red longsword became obvious… it belonged to one of the five great god-kings of the God Realm, the Asura God's super artifact, the Asura God Sword! Bibi Dong inherited the Asura God's position?! What about the Rakshasa God?! "What exactly has that guy named Ye Xiu done?!" Ye Qiu muttered helplessly. Logically, the Asura God Sword should still be in Tang Chen's hands, or rather, the King of Slaughter's hands! These changes made Ye Qiu anxious. He didn't know whether he would be friend or foe to the Spirit Hall in the future. "Hoo~" Ye Qiu grabbed his hair, slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air. He shook his head forcefully, temporarily suppressing these thoughts. This time, accompanying Ning Rongrong back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he also needed to carefully inquire with Dugu Bo. He even needed to find Qian Renxue to find out about Bibi Dong's situation. It was better than making wild guesses... Before long, Ye Qiu returned to the place where he had spent the night. Before he even got close, he saw a shapely figure looking around. A smile returned to Ye Qiu's face, and he called softly, "Zhu Qing!" Hearing Ye Qiu's voice, Zhu Zhu Qing looked over happily. "Ye Qiu~" Ye Qiu strolled over and hugged his large cat-shaped pillow to his chest. "Mwah~ Good morning!" Zhu Zhu Qing blushed, stood on tiptoe, and gave Ye Qiu a light kiss on the lips. Ye Qiu followed suit and returned the kiss. The cool morning breeze swept across the blue-silver grass, and Zhu Zhu Qing leaned closer to Ye Qiu. "Where did you go just now?" "I went to talk to Da Ming and say goodbye." Ye Qiu gently rubbed his palm, adding some warmth to it. It made her earlobes turn red. Seeing her shy and unable to contain herself, he couldn't help but recall what had happened last night. A hint of teasing crept into his eyes. "But you, why are you up so early? Shouldn't you rest a little longer?" "No need!" Zhu Zhuqing said irritably, pressing his fidgeting hand back into place. With a muffled groan, Ye Qiu felt himself sinking deeper into her charms. She looked at Ye Qiu shyly, her eyes pleading. Her words were halting and hesitant, too embarrassed to speak. "Tell Rongrong not to come to me for any guidance anymore. I... I'm only a little more stable than her." "Pfft, haha, okay, okay, I'll talk to Rongrong." Putting himself in her shoes for a moment, Ye Qiu knew Zhu Zhuqing was telling the truth. But he still couldn't help but laugh. Zhu Zhuqing buried her face in his chest, playing the ostrich.
Last night, while the group rested together,
Ye Qiu, while acting as a cat and rabbit, also served as a human cushion.
His hands were gentle yet different, his arms applying varying pressure.
Ning Rongrong's delicate body was also soft and comfortable.
The three women whispered among themselves, without any hesitation that Ye Qiu was right beside them.
To adapt quickly and master the basics,
so as not to cause Ye Qiu any more trouble,
Ning Rongrong fully demonstrated her spirit of seeking knowledge.
She asked Zhu Zhuqing, a senior, hoping she could teach her by example,
even providing on-site instruction, so she could stand on the shoulders of giants
, imitate skillfully, and even apply what she learned immediately.
This request was also strongly supported by Xiao Wu.
It even made Ye Qiu's heart pound and his mouth dry.
The wooden-shaped cushion made Ning Rongrong, lying on it, feel quite uncomfortable, and her face flushed red.
The thin-skinned Zhu Zhuqing, however, was unmoved by the little devil's persistent teasing and fierce banter.
She could only close her eyes, hug Ye Qiu's arm, and pretend to be asleep, her whole body red.
Ning Rongrong continued her incessant chatter,
causing the group to fall asleep very late.
"No need, I heard you!" Ning Rongrong's voice rang out.
Ye Qiu and Zhu Zhuqing turned to look.
Ning Rongrong had just emerged from the blue-silver tent.
"Rongrong." Zhu Zhuqing's pupils dilated, and she shrank into Ye Qiu's arms, somewhat afraid of this fierce little devil.
"Rongrong, what are you doing with that carrot? Are you hungry?" Ye Qiu looked at her curiously; this should be something Xiao Wu liked to eat.
"Is it breakfast for Xiao Wu?" Zhu Zhuqing also looked at the suddenly coy Ning Rongrong with a puzzled expression.
"No! Rongrong took it from me."
Two pink rabbit ears peeked out, and the charming Xiao Wu also emerged from the tent.
"Xiao Qiu~" Xiao Wu excitedly hugged Ye Qiu's other arm, gently nuzzling his shoulder.
Facing his probing gaze, Xiao Wu shook her head.

"I don't know why Rongrong wants my carrot!"
"I...I'm just hungry! Humph!" Ning Rongrong blushed and huffed, her small hands clutching the carrot turning slightly pale.
"Hungry? I happen to have some pastries I bought while shopping earlier. In that case, let's have breakfast before we leave!"
With that, Ye Qiu released the two girls, sat cross-legged on the ground, and activated his divine power, causing some exquisite food to appear on the grass.
"Sit down and have some!"
"Yay!" Xiao Wu excitedly sat on Ye Qiu's lap, her petite body making Ye Qiu a human chair once again.
Zhu Zhuqing sat quietly beside Ye Qiu, opened the packaging, and gently handed the pastries to him.
"Rongrong~ Look, Xiao Qiu has so many delicious things here, can you give me back my treasured giant carrot now!"
Xiao Wu looked pitifully at Ning Rongrong; this was her treasured food that she had been saving for a long time, something she herself couldn't bear to eat.
Xiao Wu didn't know why Ning Rongrong was so picky about her food. She wouldn't accept anything thin or crooked.
"I don't want it, I... I'm on a diet." Ning Rongrong shook her head, decisively refusing Xiao Wu's request.
She opened her mouth slightly, put the carrot in, her face flushed, her cheeks puffed out like a hamster, and slowly began to gnaw.
"Ah~" Xiao Wu let out a painful groan; the carrot in her hand suddenly didn't taste so good anymore.
Zhu Zhuqing, however, saw Ning Rongrong's reproachful look.
She immediately understood.
A blush rose to her face, and she dared not look at Ning Rongrong again.
"Alright, Xiao Wu! I'll buy some for you and prepare extra, including Rongrong's share."
Ye Qiu hugged the beauty in his arms, gently comforting her.
"Okay, Xiao Qiu, you have to remember that!" Xiao Wu tilted her head back and bit Ye Qiu's chin.
Ye Qiu chuckled, nodded gently, and fondled her strong waist, unable to let go.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort made Ye Qiu turn his gaze to Ning Rongrong opposite him.
Meeting her gentle, watery blue eyes,
Ye Qiu's heart skipped a beat.
The sight of her eating with her cheeks puffed out, staring at him like that,
reminded him of something unpleasant .
Xiao Wu's treasured food...it looked somewhat familiar.
No, it was very familiar.
"Ahem." Ye Qiu couldn't help but cough twice, clearing away the gloom in his heart.
Ning Rongrong lowered her head again, earnestly munching on her diet meal.
She had chosen the best food from Xiao Wu's pile of carrots, based on her memory.
As she ate,
she felt a little helpless.
Zhu Zhuqing, this successful senior, was unwilling to guide her.
She had no choice but to rely on her own intelligence and become self-taught!
Ye Qiu, who was feeding Zhu Zhuqing, suddenly remembered something.
"Oh, right, Rongrong, I have another immortal herb here, an eight-petaled immortal orchid, suitable for Oscar. How about I entrust it to you for safekeeping? If he behaves well later, you can give it to him." As he
spoke, a glint of bloodlust flashed in Ye Qiu's eyes, and an eight-petaled orchid appeared in his hand. Its fragrance was intoxicating, its entire body pure white and translucent, giving it an ethereal quality.
This was the eight-petaled immortal orchid, its medicinal properties gentle and mellow, easily absorbed, able to strengthen the body's foundation and expel impurities. Oscar, as a food-type soul master with innate full soul power, possessed the potential to become a god, and Ye Qiu didn't mind making a small investment. "Huh? Give the immortal herb to that guy Oscar?" Ning Rongrong, munching on a carrot, answered Ye Qiu vaguely. Then, finding it troublesome, she pulled out the carrot, which was covered in glistening liquid. Ning Rongrong frowned. "Why give it to him?" She had personally experienced the effects of the immortal herb; she was reluctant to give it away like this. "Yeah, Xiao Qiu~ Why give it to Oscar? I remember the Eight-Petaled Fairy Orchid and the Qiluo Tulip, aren't they a pair of Mandarin Duck Fairy Herbs?" Xiao Wu knew a bit about fairy herbs; the little notebook Ye Qiu had made was still lying in her ring. "Ah? Mandarin Duck Fairy Herbs! Then you definitely can't give it to him!" Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Ning Rongrong glared at Ye Qiu angrily. "What are you thinking?!" If they weren't sitting a bit far apart, Ning Rongrong would have wanted to hit him on the head with the carrot in her hand. Ye Qiu smiled helplessly: "Uh, I'm just entrusting it to you for safekeeping, isn't he? He's quite talented , after all. He's also a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. I'm just asking for your opinion." "Hmph! Then don't give it to him, don't even think about it! If you want to reward him, you can use something else. Our family has no shortage of money!" "Besides, I clearly said before that my things are yours. Hmph! You can keep them yourself." Ning Rongrong glared at Ye Qiu reproachfully. Then, she started munching on the carrot in her hand again, her face slowly turning red. Her speech was mumbled and unclear. "Keep it, we can keep it for our future babies too." "Rongrong, you're shameless!" Xiao Wu patted her pretty face with her little hands. Zhu Zhuqing nodded as well. "You two are criticizing me, but you each gave Ye Qiu different ones." Ning Rongrong's words made the two girls blush and fall silent. Ye Qiu gave her a helpless glare; the little witch was indeed a little witch. "Alright, then I'll keep it for now! But this time, I can reward Oscar with the soul bone dropped by the Agate Turtle, after all, the effects of those hidden weapons are indeed extraordinary." Ye Qiu chuckled and put the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid away again. "Okay, then give it to him!" Ning Rongrong waved her hand indifferently; anyway, as long as Ye Qiu was there, she would have more and better soul bones in the future. Ye Qiu nodded slightly. If he didn't give her the immortal herb, then he would have to do the work. Anyway, the God of Food's condition was only to break through to the Title Douluo level before the age of thirty. If Oscar performed well... He could also help him hunt souls, accelerating his growth. It seems the conditions can be met. After a long while...
Everyone's stomachs were mostly full.
Ning Rongrong's carrot slowly melted in her mouth.
Looking at Ye Qiu, she opened her mouth, hesitating to speak.
"What's wrong, Rongrong?" Ye Qiu, who was about to put away the remaining food, looked at her curiously.
"Rongrong, just say what's wrong. Didn't you just say yours is mine?"
Ning Rongrong hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke slowly.
"Ye Qiu, do you still have any Qiluo Tulips?"
Hearing this, Ye Qiu understood.
It was probably for her father, Ning Fengzhi, who had worked hard for half his life to break through to level 80!
"Rongrong, I'm sorry, I only have that one Qiluo Tulip. Although I have other immortal herbs, their effect on treasure-type martial souls is limited!"
"I see." Ning Rongrong lowered her head in disappointment.
She naturally understood Ye Qiu's words; he no longer had any immortal herbs that could guarantee the evolution of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
"Don't be too disappointed. This world is still vast. Maybe I'll find another way in the future?"
Ye Qiu, having finished packing, gently stroked Ning Rongrong's swollen lips, which were red from eating breakfast, his fingertips glowing green.
"Ye Qiu, thank you! You don't need to apologize!"
"What you brought me is incomparable to anything in the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. We should be thanking you."
Ning Rongrong grabbed Ye Qiu's hand, a smile on her face, and leaned into his arms, speaking softly.
Ye Qiu also smiled gently.
At this moment, the sun finally fully emerged above the horizon.
"Zhu Qing, Xiao Wu, come here! We should go! I've already said goodbye to Da Ming and the others!"
"Okay!" Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhu Qing quickly approached Ye Qiu.
Space shifted.
The four figures disappeared from the spot.
The woven tent slowly dissipated.
In the distance, Da Ming glanced at the still-sleeping Er Ming before slowly sinking to the bottom of the lake.
