Haozi adored Ah Yin, Ah Yin adored Ye Qinghe, and Ye Qinghe toyed with the Haozi brothers
Afterwards, out of curiosity about human society, Ah Yin began to inquire about the three people's experiences.
Tang Hao was eager to show off and was the first to speak. Unfortunately, since birth, apart from cultivating in the Clear Sky Sect and forging iron with the Old Titan, he had never mentioned hunting Soul Beast over 50,000 years old to obtain Soul Bone with his elder brother.
Of course, this wasn't out of fear of being confronted and held accountable by the Spirit Hall.
Rather, she didn't want her Soul Bone to be targeted.
Tang Xiao's experience was similar, except that blacksmithing wasn't part of his experience.
But no matter who it was, Ah Yin wasn't particularly interested.
When Ye Qinghe began to recount his experiences, Ah Yin's eyes lit up instantly.
After graduating from the primary Soul Master Academy, he ventured into the Douluo Continent alone. During this time, he incorporated many adventure scenes from the protagonists of novels from his previous life on Earth, and also shared a lot of common sense about human society.
Ah Yin felt delighted and relaxed listening to this.
Before they knew it, they had chatted all night.
During this time, Ah Yin was asking questions and Ye Qinghe was answering them for the vast majority of the time, while the Haozi Brothers were completely relegated to supporting roles.
I couldn't get a word in edgewise.
At the same time, they were also unknowingly drawn to Ye Qinghe's 'experience'.
When Ye Qinghe deliberately mentioned a flower that would never wither, Ah Yin, who always knew a lot about flowers and plants, immediately became interested. "Brother Ye, what kind of flower is it?"
Ye Qinghe shook his head, feigning ignorance. "I don't know either."
The Haozi Brothers sneered inwardly, thinking, "So there are things you don't know, huh?"
But Ye Qinghe's next words shattered their composure. "If you like it, then take it."
As he spoke, Ye Qinghe took out the spider lily left behind after the old rabbit's sacrifice and handed it to Ah Yin.
The red spider lily does not exist in this world, so Ah Yin did not recognize it. However, when she received the flower, she immediately sensed its mystical power.
It's unbelievable that this flower can conceal the aura of the Soul Beast within her.
"Thank you, Brother Ye."
Ah Yin gently sniffed the spider lily, offered a soft thank you, and then looked at Ye Qinghe with a hint of something more in her eyes.
Although Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were roughnecks, even if they were slow to understand, they still knew what it meant for a boy to give a girl flowers.
The key point is that the girl accepted it with great joy.
As a result, the two of them instantly lost their temper. Tang Hao was about to explode when, at the critical moment, Tang Xiao, the guy who was on par with Flender in the original work as a green-haired turtle, held down his shoulder.
"Alright, Brother Hao, haste makes waste. If you make a move now, I'm afraid Miss Ah Yin will completely despise you. Rather than that, it would be better to invite this boy and Miss Ah Yin to travel the continent with us. When Miss Ah Yin sees the difference, she'll know which one to choose. Besides, Miss Ah Yin just happens to be interested in this flower; it's nothing."
He first used his Soul Power to send a message to Tang Hao to reassure him.
Then, he extended an invitation to Ye Qinghe and Ah Yin, saying, "No wonder Ye Fan has such strength at such a young age; he has experienced so much. Since that's the case, it's fate that we met. Why don't you two travel the continent with my brother?"
"Miss Ah Yin, what do you think?" Ye Qinghe did not give a direct answer, but looked at Ah Yin instead.
"I will follow Brother Ye's orders." Ah Yin smiled slightly, subtly beginning to show that she was taking Ye Qinghe as her master.
This made Tang Hao grit his teeth even more. Tang Xiao also felt very bad. His favorability towards Ye Qinghe dropped to -100, giving him another seven chances to draw a prize.
Now, including the ten he hadn't used yet, he had a total of thirty chances to draw a prize.
Ye Qinghe chuckled inwardly. This was nothing! Next, he would show the two what a real "green tea" male lead was like, and have these Haozi brothers provide him with a huge amount of emotional value...
And so, the four of them set off.
During this time, under the deliberate guidance of the Haozi Brothers, they did encounter some powerful Soul Beast.
Faced with these Soul Beast, the Haozi brothers focused on protecting Ah Yin while also hunting Soul Beast down to obtain Soul Bone.
However, Soul Bone were clearly not so easy to obtain. Over the course of six months, the two had hunted down a dozen or twenty Soul Beast that were over 50,000 years old. But even without obtaining a single Soul Bone.
In Ye Qinghe merely used the Qingming Needle the major acupoints around the Soul Beast, rendering them powerless to resist, without killing a single one.
He even stopped the Haozi Brothers when they wanted to hunt down the Soul Beast he had subdued, advising them not to indiscriminately hunt and kill for the sake of Soul Bone, arguing that "if Soul Beast are slaughtered indiscriminately, future generations will have no Soul Ring to use."
This made Ah Yin, who still had deep feelings for the Soul Beast Clan, increasingly fond of Ye Qinghe.
On the other hand, Tang Hao repeatedly berated Ye Qinghe, arguing that it was only natural for Soul Master to hunt Soul Beast. He even said that Ye Qinghe was too soft-hearted to achieve anything great, which made Ah Yin increasingly disgusted with him. However, out of reluctance to hurt Ye Qinghe and ruin his friendship with the two brothers, she never expressed her dislike.
Meanwhile, as they spent more time together, Ah Yin's feelings for Ye Qinghe gradually transformed into love, a feeling he also kept hidden.
As for Tang Xiao, he wasn't so impulsive. Most of the time, he cared about Ah Yin's feelings, but he also needed to take care of his younger brother Tang Hao's feelings every time.
So every time Ye Qinghe and Tang Hao argued, Ah Yin would subtly help Ye Qinghe, which only made Tang Hao angrier, and then Tang Xiao would try to smooth things over.
Meanwhile, Tang Xiao was openly and secretly inviting Ye Qinghe and Ah Yin to join the Clear Sky Sect.
Ye Qinghe declined, saying he was used to being alone.
Ah Yin already had feelings for Ye Qinghe, so since Ye Qinghe didn't agree, Ah Yin naturally refused as well.
This led to the further disintegration of this small group, which already had differing intentions.
Another year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Tang Xiao's Soul Power broke through to level 85. At the age of 51, he was one step closer to becoming Titled Douluo.
More than half a year ago, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao hunted down a 50,000-year-old power-type Soul Beast and obtained a Soul Bone. He is now level 79 and is currently trying to break through the level 80 bottleneck.
Ah Yin's Soul Power has increased to level 57. In the Soul King stage, one level is raised every six months, which is considered a fairly normal level for a genius.
As for Ye Qinghe, his Soul Power has already broken through to level 78, and he is about to surpass Ye Qinghe.
In a year and a half, without absorbing any Soul Bone or taking any medicine, he increased his Soul Power Level at the Soul Saint stage.
This gave the Haozi brothers a huge fright.
If he continues cultivating at this pace, Ye Qinghe will probably reach the Titled Douluo in three to five years.
Titled Douluo around thirty years old.
If it weren't for the Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden who ascended to the Titled Douluo level at the age of twenty-four, Ye Fan would undoubtedly be the strongest genius in the current Soul Master World, without exception.
No, even that Holy Maiden is inferior in some ways.
After all, the reason the other party was able to advance to the Titled Douluo so quickly was mainly due to their Twin Martial Souls.
In Ye Qinghe only has one Martial Soul.
That wasn't the most important thing. What they found most unbearable was that Ah Yin's gaze towards Ye Qinghe was becoming increasingly strange.
This brought the conflict within the small group to the brink of erupting.
