Until the sunset glow enveloped everything.
Only when Ye Tian's soul power was about to be replenished once more did he reluctantly put down his pen. Looking at the greenery outside the window, draped in golden radiance, put him in an even better mood.
"If life could go on like this forever, it wouldn't be so bad."
Ye Tian propped up his cheek, feeling rather pleased with himself.
Then his tone shifted.
"But people always die. It's impossible to live like this forever."
The words fell.
Ye Tian smiled and shook his head.
Holding his pen, he added a short horizontal line to the hourglass before him.
Ye Tian intended to draw a circle around the hourglass.
If, in the end, the dozens of horizontal lines forming the circle could not connect end to end,
then it would naturally prove that the Marrow Cleansing Pill had worked.
"First Soul Skill, activate!"
Ye Tian opened his right hand. The Flawless Embryonic Pill was shrouded in purple light that lingered for a long time, and Marrow Cleansing Pills appeared in his palm one after another.
"Despite producing the same amount, it seems a little easier?"
Ye Tian held the Marrow Cleansing Pills, his face filled with surprise and doubt.
"Perhaps the process of constantly exhausting and recovering can also improve cultivation somewhat."
"Ahh!"
Since he would learn the truth sooner or later anyway, Ye Tian did not dwell on it further.
As before, he swallowed ten pills and stored the rest.
He put away his paper and pen.
Looking at the jar filled to the brim on the window sill, Ye Tian lazily stretched.
"Ahh—!"
"Life is becoming more and more promising."
After tidying himself up, Ye Tian left the room.
On the window sill of the room next door,
the arrangement was exactly the same as Ye Tian's. That satisfied cry of "Ahh"
had undoubtedly reached Bibi Dong's ears as well.
Bibi Dong lay on the desk by the window. Tired of cultivating, she looked out at the scenery.
Her perfect figure was pressed against the desktop.
Her nightgown hung loosely around her, with much fair skin seeming ready to spill out from it.
She still held a pen in her hand.
On the white sheet of paper atop the desk were the words Spirit Beast Characteristics Theory.
Bibi Dong watched Ye Tian's retreating back as he slowly left Wisteria Residence.
The Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul resting beside her elbow rustled in the evening breeze. Eventually, the wind flipped it open.
Bibi Dong withdrew her gaze from the distance and looked down at the book.
Her eyes were incomparably complicated.
It was a book she had once been able to read over and over without growing tired of it.
But when she reviewed it today,
every line seemed as glaring as poison-tipped thorns.
She could not bear to look at it.
Looking at that sentence once revered as an eternal truth,
Bibi Dong's mind was exceptionally clear.
She could not help murmuring,
"I never realized before that you were also a useless spirit master?"
"..."
Bibi Dong silently lay on the desk with her head resting on her arms. Her jade hand crumpled Ten Great Theories into a ball, and her shoulders trembled.
No one knew
whether Bibi Dong was regretting it now, grieving, or perhaps both.
At this moment, she knew only one thing.
Her entire life seemed to have been completely ruined by a liar!
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Yu Family deserved to die as well!
Bibi Dong's eyes filled with icy killing intent and turned crimson.
They all had to die!!!
As the sun set beyond the western hills and twilight surged forth,
Ye Tian carried a food box into Wisteria Residence and knocked on Bibi Dong's room door.
"Teacher, open the door and let me in."
Before the words fell,
the door before Ye Tian was violently pulled open. A gust of wind rushed out,
nearly sucking Ye Tian inside.
"Fuck!"
Ye Tian steadied himself against the doorframe and narrowed his eyes as he looked inside, immediately shivering.
Bibi Dong had already changed clothes and was sitting cross-legged on the bed. Unlike when she had just emerged from her bath earlier, she now radiated an icy aloofness that warned all strangers away.
Just now, she had merely waved her hand to open the door for Ye Tian.
She had simply used a little too much force.
"Come in."
Bibi Dong ordered coldly.
"Oh, okay."
Ye Tian was somewhat confused, but he understood.
Forget mental patients—even a normal person could easily overthink when alone, then become depressed or go mad.
That was all perfectly normal.
Ye Tian casually shut the door and boldly walked inside.
"Teacher, I've already eaten. I put your meal on the table."
"There are also Marrow Cleansing Pills I prepared inside."
Ye Tian had just placed the food box on the table when he heard Bibi Dong's commanding voice.
"I have no appetite right now."
"Bring your Marrow Cleansing Pills over. Prepare to begin cultivation."
No appetite?
Ye Tian's expression was strange. Clearly, Bibi Dong herself had asked for food.
Still, whether Bibi Dong ate or not was none of his concern.
Perhaps she was saving it for a late-night snack?
"Alright, Teacher."
Ye Tian answered briskly.
Holding the small dish of Marrow Cleansing Pills, he walked up to Bibi Dong. But only then did Ye Tian realize things did not seem so simple.
Bibi Dong's eye sockets were visibly reddened.
Had she cried?
Ye Tian could not make sense of it.
He knew some mental patients could not control the urge to cry.
But Bibi Dong should not have been one of them, right?
"What are you looking at?"
Bibi Dong shot Ye Tian a cold glance.
"Ah, nothing, Teacher. Your medicine—hurry and take it."
Ye Tian quickly shook his head.
He immediately sat at the edge of the bed and handed the small dish to Bibi Dong.
"The quantity seems to have increased?"
Bibi Dong raised a brow without smiling.
"Yes, there are twenty pills here. After all, Teacher helped me obtain my soul ring, and you even charged me extra. My skin isn't actually as thick as Teacher imagines."
Ye Tian smiled as he explained.
"Is that so?"
Bibi Dong was somewhat skeptical, but Ye Tian's answer was resolute.
"Of course!"
Before the words fell,
Ye Tian smoothly rolled along the edge of the bed to the foot of the bed and kicked off his shoes.
He sat cross-legged.
"Teacher, take the medicine first. I'll begin cultivating immediately."
After saying that,
Ye Tian did not want to say anything more.
Bibi Dong was definitely hard to get along with in her current state. The less he said, the fewer mistakes he would make.
Bibi Dong frowned.
Why did the words coming from Ye Tian's mouth sound as though she had some sort of illness? Moreover, Bibi Dong keenly noticed
that Ye Tian was avoiding communicating with her.
"Hmph!"
Bibi Dong snorted coldly to herself and gave Ye Tian a deep look.
She hoped this disciple would not disappoint her.
Otherwise, she would kill them all!
Bibi Dong raised her head and poured all twenty Marrow Cleansing Pills into her mouth.
At once,
the pores all over her body seemed to open. She felt as light as a swallow, as though she were floating into immortality. That sensation lasted for more than a dozen breaths.
It was even more addictive than a breakthrough in cultivation.
Bibi Dong could not help letting out a muffled moan.
She nearly let out some indecent, breathy sounds.
She closed her eyes and began cultivating.
A rich medicinal fragrance drifted over, gradually soothing Bibi Dong's troubled mind.
The milky-white mist drifting from Ye Tian's body enveloped the entire bed, slowly rotating like a nebula.
Every so often,
Ye Tian would emerge from his meditative state and make Marrow Cleansing Pills.
The night passed without incident.
Until the following morning, Ju Douluo arrived at the entrance of Wisteria Residence.
At the same time,
within the Mixed Zone of the Star Dou Great Forest,
layer upon layer of tree canopies blocked the blazing morning sunlight.
Upon the roots of a thick, towering tree,
stood two golden figures, one old and one young.
Qian Renxue sat cross-legged on the ground, while Qian Daoliu stood beside her, protecting her.
