Immediately afterwards, Ye Lingling echoed:
"I also believe in my brother Tianqing."
Hearing what the two said, Liu Erlong's heart began to waver.
She also knew that Yu Tianqing couldn't be judged by ordinary standards.
Its martial soul, Xiao Qing, killed the hundreds-of-years-old Wind Chime Bird with a single claw attack without any additional soul rings.
This clearly demonstrates its strength!
Moreover, after consuming so many Fire Spirit Grasses, Xiao Qing's physical strength has increased to a new level.
Liu Erlong wasn't too worried about Xiaoqing.
The only concern is Yu Tianqing himself.
After all, when absorbing spirit rings, it still relies more on Yu Tianqing.
Seeing that Liu Erlong was still hesitant, Ye Xian'er's eyes flashed with surprise, and then she waved to Yu Tianqing.
"Tianqing, come to me."
"Let me feel your bones and check you over."
Yu Tianqing didn't linger and walked straight up to Ye Xian'er.
Then, Ye Xian'er stretched out her slender, jade-like hand, which was slightly cold, and reached straight under his clothes.
Yu Tianqing could clearly feel a smooth, soft sensation spreading throughout his body.
Suddenly, Yu Tianqing froze, his eyes widening in surprise.
This was because Ye Xian'er's hand, after touching his upper body, slid down towards his lower body.
"Do you want the bottom too?"
Yu Tianqing asked, looking slightly embarrassed.
Seeing Yu Tianqing's embarrassed expression, Ye Xian'er smiled innocently and said:
"certainly."
"A full body checkup!"
"You're just a little kid, are you going to be shy?"
Yu Tianqing was stunned, unsure of what to say.
After all, his body is currently that of a child.
Then, Ye Xian'er's jade-like hand slid down again.
After examining him, she turned her gaze to Liu Erlong:
"Dean Liu, I have examined Tian Qing, and his physical strength far exceeds that of ordinary people."
"Given Xiaoqing's strength, she might be able to withstand a thousand-year soul ring."
After listening to what Ye Xian'er said, Liu Erlong frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.
After a moment's thought, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes, and he nodded, saying:
"Oh well!"
Yu Tianqing was naturally pleased to see that Liu Erlong had agreed.
At this moment, Ye Xian'er casually waved her hand and took out an item from her storage soul tool.
It was a blue plant with a plump flower bud on it, emitting a special fragrance.
Just a whiff of its scent is enough to invigorate one's spirits and give one a feeling of refreshment.
"Sky blue".
"This is the Soul Flower."
"When consumed after ripening, it can enhance a Soul Master's soul power and perception!"
"Since you took so many Fire Spirit Grasses before, consider this Soul Spirit Flower a return gift!"
As she spoke, Ye Xian'er handed the Soul Flower to Yu Tianqing.
Yu Tianqing paused for a moment, looking somewhat hesitant.
Seeing this, Ye Xian'er frowned slightly and asked in a low voice:
"how?"
"Are you still being polite with me?"
Yu Tianqing smiled, then took the Soul Flower from Ye Xian'er and expressed his gratitude.
Liu Erlong noticed this but didn't pay much attention, and said:
"That's all I have to say."
"We should get going."
After that, Yu Tianqing and the others did not linger and set off.
...
In the blink of an eye, night fell.
At this moment, Yu Tianqing and the others stopped to rest on a grassy area.
After searching all day, they still hadn't found a suitable soul beast for Yu Tianqing.
There are naturally many thousand-year-old soul beasts on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, but to find one with the wood attribute, especially a thousand-year-old one, depends on luck!
Ye Xian'er and Liu Erlong had already fallen asleep in the large tent.
Inside the small tent, Yu Tianqing and Ye Lingling lay side by side, neither of them asleep yet.
"Brother Tianqing."
"You...you really want to find a thousand-year-old soul beast to be your first soul ring?"
After a moment of silence, Ye Lingling looked at Yu Tianqing with a worried expression.
"Um?"
Yu Tianqing frowned slightly and said:
"yes!"
"During the day, didn't you help me out too, Sister Lingling?"
"Why are you starting to have doubts now?"
Ye Lingling gave an awkward smile:
"I only said that because I saw you wanted a thousand-year-old soul beast soul ring."
"Otherwise, Dean Liu definitely wouldn't agree."
"This first spirit ring requires absorbing a thousand-year-old spirit ring, which is very dangerous."
"Who knows... you might burst from being so full!"
Yu Tianqing remained unmoved by what Ye Lingling said; his mind was made up and he would not change it.
Seeing that Yu Tianqing remained unmoved, Ye Lingling frowned, then turned to the side and said again:
"I wouldn't even dare to try a thousand-year-level spirit ring for my second spirit ring."
Yu Tianqing smiled slightly and said:
"I still want to give it a try."
"What if it succeeds?"
Seeing that Yu Tianqing looked determined, Ye Lingling didn't try to persuade him any further.
She was worried about Yu Tianqing's safety, so she thought of scaring him a little, hoping he would change his mind. It wasn't worth taking such a big risk.
Who would have thought that Yu Tianqing was determined to get the first soul ring of the thousand-year level?
"Since you've already made up your mind and have no intention of changing it."
"Then I can only help you out, sister."
As they were speaking, Ye Lingling suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Tianqing's small hand, then added:
"Little brother Tianqing, promise me you'll survive."
After being taken aback by Ye Lingling's words and actions, Yu Tianqing was somewhat at a loss.
He thought he was just absorbing a thousand-year soul ring, but for Ye Lingling it was like a life-or-death separation.
"Sister Lingling, I...I will succeed."
After remaining silent for a while, Yu Tianqing finally managed to utter this sentence.
At this moment, Ye Lingling suddenly changed the subject:
"Brother Tianqing."
"Can...can I touch you?"
Upon hearing Ye Lingling's words, Yu Tianqing was completely stunned!
This is really too abrupt!
Before Yu Tianqing could react, Ye Lingling explained with a smile:
"I want to feel your physical strength!"
"It's not just my mother who can feel bones!"
"Me too!"
"Come here, let your older sister touch you too."
After saying this, Ye Lingling didn't wait for Yu Tianqing's reply and directly put her jade hand inside Yu Tianqing's clothes.
Yu Tianqing was stunned on the spot.
"Why do I feel like Ye Lingling is a bit timid?"
"Could he be having ulterior motives towards me?"
Yu Tianqing's thoughts were racing. He remembered that night when Ye Lingling had flicked his finger at his fledgling bird.
Such behavior is truly baffling.
Now, she's even imitating Ye Xian'er, wanting to have her bones checked.
Just as Yu Tianqing was stunned, Ye Lingling's small hands began to slide back and forth over his body.
What left Yu Tianqing even more speechless was...
As Ye Lingling touched it, she even showed a look of enjoyment on her face.
Judging from the way he looked, it didn't look like he was being examined for bones at all.
It's clearly an attempt to take advantage of him under false pretenses!
