"Do you really intend to use this green lotus to resurrect me?"
Ah Yin still found it hard to believe. That a stranger would be so interested in a stalk of Blue Silver Grass was, frankly, a bit like a dream.
Moreover, she was a rare 100,000-year plant Spirit Beast; being trusted so much by a human made her feel even more hesitant.
Coupled with the various issues Chu Feng had mentioned to her earlier and her recent experiences, Ah Yin appeared bitter.
Chu Feng, however, had always been open-minded, and he was used to facing the complicated thoughts of these women.
Thus, he said dashingly, "What happened before this moment isn't important. What matters is whether you want this or not. You can take a good look at me before making your decision."
Look at him? This man, who was similar in age to Tang San, appeared to have a different kind of maturity and sense of responsibility.
No, Ah Yin's heart was in a knot. How could she think that? Could it be that Tang San and Tang Hao really did something to wrong her?
Also, why was he so confident, so certain that he could establish a friendly relationship with her?
"Do you... do you know Tang San?"
Ah Yin threw out a substantive question, but Chu Feng didn't answer for the moment.
Some things only lose their meaning the more they are explained; it would be more interesting to let things develop naturally.
Furthermore, Chu Feng had already placed the green lotus above the Blue Silver Grass that Ah Yin belonged to, using the Primordial Chaos Aura to guide the exchange between these two top-tier plant powers.
The green lotus was like a trickling stream, fully directing its possessed power toward Ah Yin. Following the process, the lotus leaves slowly fell one by one, turning into dust.
Only then did Chu Feng speak: "I know them. And I can tell you that both Tang San and Tang Hao have a grudge against me, but that doesn't matter. I believe you will surely be able to distinguish right from wrong."
This information shocked Ah Yin considerably, but it seemed her emotions weren't as agitated now.
Or perhaps Ah Yin herself had subconsciously pondered this issue. For over ten years, Tang Hao had not found a way to resurrect her, and she had never even met Tang San. Ah Yin's attitude toward the two of them might not have been very good to begin with.
Naturally, this wasn't apparent in the original story, but thinking carefully, the feelings between Spirit Beasts and humans were inherently distorted and fragile. The actions of Tang Hao and Tang San were no different from those of cowards, meaning Ah Yin had always been in a state of unrequited longing.
Looking at it this way, Chu Feng saving Ah Yin wasn't exactly stealing someone's woman; it was more like liberating her. Indeed, just like Xiao Wu, a deceived woman sometimes only needs a moment of awakening.
After a while, only a single leaf remained of the green lotus, but Ah Yin had basically recovered. Her 100,000-year cultivation and the spiritual energy she had recently acquired allowed her to restore herself.
Perhaps because of this, Ah Yin did not wait quietly for the reshaping process to finish; she took the initiative to transform into human form.
Her blue skirt suddenly spread out, brushing past Chu Feng's face. Her ethereal, fairy-like aura emitted a soul-capturing fragrance, and her slender, jade-like legs unexpectedly crossed over Chu Feng's chest, gently pushing him down.
"Is this really me? I feel as if I've been reborn."
Ah Yin walked through the air, floating with an immortal aura, looking herself over with a smile.
She had gained a more enchanting figure than before, more advanced power, and her spirit and bloodline had all undergone a transformative reshaping. This was the sacred heart green lotus!
Thinking of this, she took that last leaf of the green lotus and trotted lightly to the ground in front of Chu Feng. She crouched down, looking at the fallen Chu Feng with a face full of tenderness.
"Why did you leave some for me? This bit of green lotus is optional for me."
When Chu Feng said this, Ah Yin's face twitched slightly.
Despite her status as a mother, after being reshaped, she was the same age as Qian Renxue and felt a bit bashful.
Chu Feng immediately changed his tune: "But it's fine. This Sacred Heart is rare after all."
As he spoke, he merged the green lotus into his body and mind, and a golden light flashed at his chest once more.
Then Ah Yin proactively leaned in, cradling Chu Feng's head with both hands while her legs extended back in a kneeling position.
She looked at Chu Feng carefully, her eyes filled with genuine emotion. She was very grateful, but she was also very restrained.
So she just wanted to seriously admire Chu Feng's face and carve it into her heart. She even wanted to see if she could find the answers to her doubts: what kind of people were Tang San, Tang Hao, and Chu Feng? Had she really misjudged someone?
But how could she tell just by looking? Instead, it made Chu Feng a bit restless. Compared to the mature women he had encountered before, like Bibi Dong, Ah Yin's mindset was more mature, but her behavior was a bit too gentle and innocent.
Chu Feng said softly, "Ah Yin, what are you thinking? Don't tell me you want to eat me."
His half-joke made Ah Yin take it somewhat seriously; that's what happens when one is too immersed in emotion. She quickly shook her head.
Chu Feng then slowly approached her. The two were so close they could almost hear each other's breathing, and the white mist from their mouths mingled together.
"No, I can't do this. Although you saved me, but..."
Ah Yin was still restraining herself. She was indeed very grateful to Chu Feng and had certain feelings for him, but she wasn't sure if it was love.
But he was right there. He had redeemed her; could she really refuse him? Besides, weren't this opportunity and this atmosphere just right?
Chu Feng whispered again, "You are you, and they are they. Besides, you are a Spirit Beast, and I don't care about that, unlike them."
Ah Yin knew who "they" were, and she also guessed what "they" might have done.
Then Ah Yin proactively leaned forward. Perhaps she was too lonely and out of practice, as she accidentally bit the base of Chu Feng's ear, her face instantly flushing red with shame.
Chu Feng naturally met her side profile to keep the atmosphere going, kissing her face directly. Ah Yin quickly adjusted, and the two were instantly locked in an embrace.
A deeper, more passionate kiss unfolded. Ah Yin was thoroughly enjoying it, for she had never been this happy before.
Ah Yin said gently, "Thank you for liberating me. I think I need you. I believe all those doubts will eventually be proven. You won't lie to me, will you?"
Chu Feng pinched her nose and said, "Of course not."
At this moment, the moonlight was thick, fireflies glowed faintly, and several cool breezes brushed between their chests.
The desire in their hearts ignited, spreading across the grass... It had to be said that the boost from the green lotus was extraordinary; a single bout of struggle was almost as exhausting as fighting an ordinary god.
But it was precisely because of this that Chu Feng's choice was correct. Deifying Ah Yin was not just a forced opportunity; it was a highly potential investment.
Of course, Chu Feng was no hypocrite. To him, utility and sincerity could complement each other.
