Chapter 58: Qian Renxue's Jealousy — I'm the One Who's Your Daughter!
After the Golden Dragon appeared, it sensed the tremendous transformation within itself. Its dragon eyes were filled with delight.
The moment it saw Lin Chen, the Golden Dragon couldn't wait to rub its head against him, seeking closeness.
Even though it had now evolved into the noble Golden Holy Dragon King, in front of Lin Chen, it would always be his little adorable pet.
"Alright, alright."
"Golden Dragon, stop rubbing against me. Your scales are too hard now; you're hurting me."
The hard dragon scales scraped against him uncomfortably. Lin Chen quickly pushed the Golden Dragon away, preventing it from continuing to nuzzle him.
After being pushed aside, the Golden Dragon looked somewhat aggrieved. It was just a little dragon who wanted to rub against its master, but now that its scales had grown too tough, it was being disliked.
Watching this scene from not far away, Dugu Yan remained calm, but Dugu Bo was utterly shocked.
Lin Chen's martial soul… was actually the detached-type martial soul.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a martial soul.
When Dugu Yan saw the Golden Dragon appear, she couldn't resist stepping forward. Standing before it, her beautiful eyes carefully examined this detached martial soul.
The Golden Dragon was startled by Dugu Yan's gaze and quickly retreated two steps, hiding behind Lin Chen.
"Hey, kid, can you let me play with your martial soul? This Five-Clawed Golden Dragon looks so majestic and domineering."
The Golden Dragon's appearance delighted Dugu Yan to no end. She couldn't help but want to tease it.
As if it understood her words, the Golden Dragon tightly wrapped its five claws around Lin Chen's thigh, hoping its master wouldn't sell it off.
"Well… sure."
Lin Chen shook his leg and directly flung the Golden Dragon off.
"Golden Dragon, I'm giving you a task. Go play with this big sister for a while."
Lin Chen looked at it with a serious expression.
Before the Golden Dragon could protest, Dugu Yan's small hand grabbed it in one swift motion. Ignoring its resistance, she carried it aside to play.

Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well
Chat Group
[Yan Will Come Back: Sisters, my poison backlash problem has been resolved. My martial soul has also evolved into a super martial soul, the Jade Phosphor Poison Dragon Emperor.]
[I Am a Little Princess: Sister Yan, you're finally speaking in the chat group! You've been offline for days.]
[I Am a Princess: But congratulations on your martial soul evolution! Are immortal herbs really that powerful? They directly allowed your martial soul to leap from a high-tier martial soul to a super martial soul?]
[A Cat Longing for Freedom: Yeah, are immortal herbs really that effective?]
[Cool and Detached Melon-Eating Girl: Curious.]
…
[My Surname Is Not Yu: Curious too. I also want my martial soul to evolve. Yan Zi, do you have any extra immortal herbs?]
[My Surname Is Not Yu: Can I trade one immortal herb with you? I'll mortgage Blue Tyrant Academy first and slowly repay the debt later.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: ???]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: Liu Erlong, you're really dreaming. And how much is your Blue Tyrant Academy worth? If anyone's trading, it should be with me.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: Yan Zi, Spirit Hall has vast resources. See if you have two immortal herbs left—one for me, and one for my disciple.]
[A Little Fox: As expected of Her Holiness, the Pope, the best teacher in the world. I'm so jealous I could cry.]
Spirit City
Hu Liena looked at Bibi Dong's message, her heart overflowing with emotion.
As expected of the Teacher, she still dotes on Nana the most. I'm about to cry from being moved.
From now on, in the chat group, she would firmly support her teacher Bibi Dong and become her strongest spokesperson.
Heaven Dou City
Qian Renxue read Bibi Dong's message, and anger gradually rose within her heart, filling her with jealousy.
'Has that woman forgotten about me? After all, I'm your daughter.'
'You have something good, and you think of giving it to Hu Liena, an outsider, instead of your own daughter. It's infuriating.'
"Stupid woman Bibi Dong. Serves you right for being deceived emotionally by that useless Yu Xiaogang."
Qian Renxue pouted, her face full of dissatisfaction. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She simply closed the diary interface to avoid seeing those annoying things.
Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well
Dugu Yan turned her head and glanced at the surrounding hundred-year and thousand-year spiritual herbs, then at the handful of immortal herbs in her possession.
She then spoke in the chat group:
[Yan Will Come Back: Unfortunately, our family doesn't have many immortal herbs. I've already taken one, and my grandfather will take one. The remaining immortal herbs are left to Lin Chen's disposal.]
[Yan Will Come Back: But you don't have to feel too regretful. Aren't there diary rewards?]
[Yan Will Come Back: As long as you persist in checking in and reading the diary long enough, your martial souls will evolve in the future too.]
[My Surname Is Not Yu: I see. What a pity. But that makes sense: immortal herbs that seize the creation of heaven and earth are rare in this world. Being able to find a few is already fortunate.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: What a pity. After hearing you, I originally wanted to take an immortal herb as well—to evolve my martial soul into a super martial soul.]
[Yan Will Come Back: Uh… without Lin Chen, the effects of the immortal herbs would be greatly reduced. Wanting to evolve into a super martial soul would still be quite difficult.]
[A Little Fox: Yan Zi, what do you mean?]
[Yan Will Come Back: If immortal herbs are taken directly, their medicinal effects are greatly reduced. But Lin Chen knows alchemy; he can refine immortal herbs together with a certain number of spiritual herbs into pills. That way, our bodies can absorb the medicinal power to the greatest extent.]
[Yan Will Come Back: The pill I just consumed is called the Ten-Thousand-Poison Dragon-Transformation Bone-Shedding Pill. It was refined for me by Lin Chen. One immortal herb combined with dozens of spiritual herbs—that's why the effect was so powerful, allowing my martial soul to directly transform into a super martial soul.]
[Yan Will Come Back: So, Bibi Dong, immortal herbs most likely won't allow your martial soul to evolve into a super martial soul. But they can increase your soul power level and talent aptitude.]
[Yan Will Come Back: However, as the Pope of Spirit Hall, your martial soul's strength speaks for itself. Your talent is already top-tier, and your soul power level is outrageously high. For you, the effects of immortal herbs would be minimal.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: I see. When you put it that way, diary rewards are indeed more satisfying.]
Spirit City Pope's Palace
After reading Dugu Yan's explanation, Bibi Dong realized that immortal herbs wouldn't benefit her much unless Lin Chen helped refine them into pills.
But for now, the diary rewards seemed far more satisfying.
"I should find another day to bully Lin Chen again. I really want to see that look on his face when his heart says one thing, but his mouth says another."
Thinking of Lin Chen, excitement gradually rose within Bibi Dong's heart as she began pondering how to "punish" that little brat.
Meanwhile, at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, after playing with the Golden Dragon for a while, Dugu Yan tossed it back to Lin Chen.
Seeing the Golden Dragon wearing a lifeless expression, Lin Chen had no choice but to first soothe its young heart before recalling it back into himself.
