"Why does this sound weirder the more I hear it? I'm not dead yet, and you're already discussing how to cover my affair?" Gu Tian rolled his eyes, and then his expression became more serious.

He turned to look at Ye Lingling. In fact, he had already made a plan in his mind. The third divine test required to conquer three candidates, and so far only one candidate, Ning Rongrong, had been completed. Originally, his two candidates were Dugu Yan and Xue Ke, but he did not expect that Ye Lingling would also be in love with him for a long time.

Moreover, Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul of Ye Lingling is the best healing system in the world, Martial Soul, but it has a fatal flaw, that is, it can only be passed down in one line. Of course, this does not mean that the entire family can survive one person, but the Nine Heart Begonia family has only one inheritor in every generation, and usually the person with the highest talent in each generation inherits it.

However, he had asked Ao Linxi before if there was any way to lift this taboo, but there is only one solution, that is to become a god king and personally formulate the rules of the world. When he really inherits Dragon God Divinity, in the Divine Realm After has established a firm foothold, he can break this extremely unreasonable curse as the God King. At that time, the Nine Heart Begonia family may catch up with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, no, it should be called Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect now, and become the number one sect in the mainland.

Gu Tian thought in his mind, touched the air with his right hand, and took out the long-prepared Immortal Herb from the shore of the Liangyi Eye in Sea of Consciousness.

It was a blue begonia flower, and every petal was crystal clear. Through the petals, one could see the deep starry sky-like stamens inside, as if they were carved from the purest sea soul marrow. In the center of the stamens, there were faint stars jumping, exuding a holy aura that could calm the restlessness of the soul.

"This is called Sky-Blue Begonia. The quality is the same as sister Yanzi's ninth-grade Ganoderma lucidum. It should also improve sister Lingling's qualifications."

Gu Tian handed the flower to Ye Lingling, and his tone was rare and gentle. "Moreover, it has the same origin as your Nine Heart Begonia. They are both crabapple flowers, but because they were born between the ultimate sources of ice and fire. Taking it will not only make a big breakthrough for your Soul Power, but may even make a qualitative change in your healing ability."

Ye Lingling stared blankly at the breathtakingly beautiful divine flower in front of her, her breathing stagnating for a moment. She could feel that the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul in her body was being pulled by the azure aura, making an unprecedented cheerful sound, and the azure blue light flowed like water waves, illuminating the whole room like a dream.

Under the protection of Gu Tian and others, Ye Lingling sat cross-legged, and Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul quietly emerged in her palm. The moment the originally white begonia with micro-powder came into contact with Sky-Blue Begonia, the two forces with the same origin suddenly resonated violently.

As the absorption deepened, Sky-Blue Begonia turned into countless tiny blue starlights, flowing into her meridians along Ye Lingling's breath. Unexpectedly, this Immortal Herb was not as violent as other heavenly materials and earthly treasures, but instead revealed a kind of coolness and gentleness.

Just as Soul Power continued to temper his meridians, a few lines of shimmering fonts slowly emerged in Ye Lingling's mind:

"Begonia flowers bloom, spring passes and autumn comes."

"Sending rulers from a distance, quietly asking for your safety."

"Begonia has no fragrance, which means secret love."

"The flowers fall silently, but my thoughts of you are tangible."

Ye Lingling looked at these words, and her heart trembled suddenly. She remembered the flower language of Begonia flowers since ancient times: tenderness, bitter love, and lovesickness.

Although the crabapple is beautiful and moving, it has no fragrance. That is because it hides all the fragrance deep in the heart, just like the feeling of love that cannot be found but cannot be expressed in the mouth. Isn't this feeling of secret love a reflection of her at this time?

She remembered that a few days ago, she had mustered up the courage of her life, and even made up lies to sneak into Gu Tian's room. But when she really faced the boy, she didn't even have the courage to tell the truth or express her feelings. She had been evading, and had been using investigations and surveillance as excuses to cover up her already fallen heart.

"I don't want to hide anymore..."

Ye Lingling screamed deep in his heart. If Nine Heart Begonia's fate is destined to bear heavy shackles, then now that Gu Tian has personally broken this curse for her, what reason does she have not to fight for it?

"After I get out, I will confess my love to him! I want to say that to him personally - I like you!"

As this idea took root in her mind, Ye Lingling's spiritual realm was sublimated at this moment. The originally gentle absorption speed suddenly accelerated, and the effect of Sky-Blue Begonia swept through her body instantly, and her soul seemed to be reforged in the blue light.

When Ye Lingling slowly opened his eyes, he found that there were busy girls standing around. Xiao Wu had his mouth wide open, Ning Rongrong looked at a loss, and Dugu Yan next to him was blushing and clutching a large bath towel in his hand.

"Lingling! You finally woke up!" Dugu Yan jumped up and down anxiously.

Ye Lingling looked down subconsciously and froze instantly. It turned out that the purification effect of Sky-Blue Begonia just now was too powerful. The overflowing sacred energy not only washed her meridians, but also tore her original high-quality school uniform into fragments in the sky at the moment of the energy explosion.

At this moment, only a few tattered pieces of cloth hung on her delicate body as white as jade, and large tracts of thrilling spring light were directly exposed to the air.

"Yeah!"

Before Ye Lingling had time to scream, Dugu Yan had quick eyesight and quick hands. He hurriedly wrapped the thick bath towel around Ye Lingling before Gu Tian came in.

At this moment, Gu Tian's voice came from outside the door. "Senior Lingling, have you finished absorbing it? How do you feel?"

Immediately afterwards, the door was pushed open. Gu Tian had just taken half a step, and before his eyes had time to focus, he saw a picture that made his blood boil: Ye Lingling's slender and straight legs were looming under the bath towel, with long hair disheveled and a blushing face.

"Um... cough, I think the potency of the medicine is stable." Gu Tian's face suddenly turned red to the base of his ears, his eyes were a little wandering, and he instinctively wanted to step back to show respect.

But at this moment, Ye Lingling's mind was filled with the feat of confessing her love just now. She looked at Gu Tian who was about to turn around, and all her reserve turned into impulse at that moment.

"Don't leave!"

Ye Lingling actually pushed away Dugu Yan who was still helping her tidy up the edge of the bath towel.

"Hey! Lingling! I haven't tied the knot yet!" Dugu Yan exclaimed.

But how could Ye Lingling hear it? Her bare white feet made a crisp sound on the floor, and rushed in front of Gu Tian like the wind. A pair of jade arms wrapped around Gu Tian's neck without any scruples, and she slammed into his arms.

This collision was so powerful that even Gu Tian was stunned on the spot.

Ye Lingling hugged Gu Tian tightly, feeling the true temperature coming from the other person's chest. It was the support she dreamed of. She raised her head, her misty eyes were full of determination, her slightly swollen red lips trembled, and those three words had reached her throat:

"Gu Tian, I want to tell you, I..."

"Um...Lingling, the bath towel fell off."

Dugu Yan A somewhat desperate voice sounded from behind Youyou.

Ye Lingling was stunned for a moment, subconsciously feeling a chill on her waist. She looked down and saw that the bath towel, which had not been fastened securely, had slipped down to her ankles due to her violent running and hugging just now, revealing her perfect, unobstructed figure.

"!!!"

Ye Lingling's mind went blank for a moment, and the courage he had to confess his love exploded within a second.

"Ah--! Don't look at it! Gu Tian, you big hooligan!"

Ye Lingling screamed, the sharp volume almost shattering the ceiling. In her panic, she didn't even bother to pick up the bath towel. Instead, out of extreme shame and anger, she subconsciously stretched out her hands and covered Gu Tian's eyes.

In the end, the sentence "I like you" was still not uttered at that moment. Maybe it was like Begonia Flower's words, love was unavailable, but it was different because she really got a response.
