Ye Lingling Comes Knocking

Yang Xiu naturally saw the reward Ning Rongrong had received.

"Pretty good luck."

He then began drawing his own rewards.

[Congratulations, you have received a reward: Soul Power increased by five levels.]

[Congratulations, you have received a reward: the age of your first three soul rings has increased by fifty thousand years.]

Yang Xiu rose to his feet, and soul rings emerged from beneath him one after another.

Yellow, purple, black, black, black, black, red!

That was right—Yang Xiu's second soul ring was purple.

And it was over two thousand five hundred years old.

Because he knew Whale Rubber could improve his physical condition.

Yang Xiu had deliberately collected Whale Rubber from this world.

Using so much Whale Rubber naturally improved his physique considerably.

His second soul ring thus naturally became a thousand-year one.

Yang Xiu claimed his reward, and before long, a stream of pure energy merged into his body.

That energy continuously nourished his flesh, while the soul rings beneath his feet slowly began to change.

In mere moments, the soul rings turned black.

Black, black, black, black, black, black, red!

His Soul Power had also reached level seventy-eight. That rate of improvement was incredibly fast.

"Although raising my first three soul rings to ten thousand years won't improve my strength much, it looks damn impressive!"

If he revealed his soul rings later, wouldn't everyone be left staring in shock?

This was way too cool!

Yang Xiu had no particular hobbies in life. Other than beautiful women, his greatest hobby was showing off!

[Strongest: Little Witch has pretty good luck. She got a decent reward.]

[Not Little Witch: Hehe! Group Leader big brother, are you coming to play with me? As long as the two of us make contact, your luck will become very good too!]

Ning Rongrong hesitated for a moment, but still sent the message.

This counted as an indirect confession, and it suited her personality.

As long as Group Leader big brother was not too ugly, Ning Rongrong could accept him.

Besides, she was quite confident that Group Leader big brother was a truly handsome man.

Though she had never seen him in person, she simply had that confidence!

[Strongest: Forget it. We'll talk about it when I'm free. Oh, right, I forgot to mention that after the chat group upgrades, two more members will be invited. It will happen before ten tomorrow morning.]

As for why it was ten in the morning, it was naturally because it was already late and he needed to sleep!

Ten in the morning was when he woke up!

[It's Dance, Not Five: Ah! More new members are coming? Doesn't that mean there'll be two more people competing with us for rewards?]

Xiao Wu felt a little upset. Her luck in the chat group had not been good to begin with.

If two more people competed with her for rewards, wouldn't she never receive one for the rest of her life?

[A Healer Cannot Heal Themself: Idiot! Although two more people will compete for rewards, the activity points will also increase much faster!]

[It's Dance, Not Five: That seems right, but something still feels strange.]

[Strongest: It's already late. Let's talk tomorrow! Oh, right, those of you staying up late, remember to keep the chat group active. I'm off first.]

After saying that, Yang Xiu changed the sign on the shop door to closed.

He leaned back in his rocking chair and slowly fell asleep.

[Shadow Cat: The group leader is already so strong. Does he still need to sleep?]

[Not Little Witch: What's so strange about that? My sword... cough, cough, my elder is very strong too, but sleeps whenever she has the time.]

[Motherless Since Childhood: I'm heading off too. I still have plenty to deal with. Of course, before I go, I still need to properly greet Bibi Dong!]

After another barrage of messages, Qian Renxue finally logged off in satisfaction.

They had chatted for too long today, and she still had plenty of state affairs to handle.

Xue Ye had gradually begun handing authority over to her.

Because of that, Qian Renxue had to handle state affairs late into the night every day.

[Not Little Witch: Sleep! Sleep!]

[A Healer Cannot Heal Themself: It's not even eleven yet. Why is everyone going to sleep so early? Forget it, I'm logging off too. I still need to consult others about medical arts!]

[It's Dance, Not Five: I'm not sleeping. I'm going to curse Bibi Dong until dawn. Bibi Dong, you beep beep beep beep!]

Xiao Wu was as combative as ever. If Yang Xiu saw this, he would definitely be very pleased.

Inside a dark cave, the only Blue Silver Grass slowly fell silent as well.

Ah Yin idly scrolled through the chat group, and all she saw were messages from someone named Xiao Wu.

That was right. Almost everyone in the group had logged off. Only Xiao Wu was still fighting valiantly!

After watching for a while, Ah Yin suddenly found it a little boring.

So she simply closed the chat group.

The world fell quiet once more.

Ah Yin again asked herself the question she had pondered for a long time.

"Brother Hao, why did you leave me in this sealed cave... Don't you know plants need sunlight?"

If Ah Yin had not been the Blue Silver Emperor, with her powerful vitality, she would have died long ago.

Ah Yin then began consoling herself again.

"Brother Hao must not want me to suffer Spirit Hall's pursuit. That has to be it."

"But why haven't you let my child come see me even once these past few years?"

"Maybe tomorrow I should ask the group leader whether he knows anything about Brother Hao and my child."

The group leader was so omnipotent. He probably knew something about her own flesh and blood.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Hiss! Who is it again? Interrupting my sweet dreams."

Yang Xiu looked annoyed. He had just been about to fall asleep when the knocking interrupted him again.

He pulled up his blindfold, activating Six Eyes.

He clearly saw who was knocking outside.

He immediately felt helpless. Why was it this person again? Hadn't she always come during the day before?

He stood up, smoothed his messy white hair, and pulled his blindfold back down.

When he opened the door, he saw a beautiful, cool-looking woman standing prettily outside.

Ye Lingling still had one hand raised to knock. When she saw the door open, she quickly withdrew it.

A faint blush also appeared on her cheeks.

Yang Xiu said helplessly, "I say, Miss Ye, it's already very late. Why are you coming to my place instead of sleeping?"

Although Ye Lingling's cheeks were slightly red, her tone remained cool and calm. "Well, I wanted to ask you some questions about medical arts."

It was a lie, and Yang Xiu knew it without even thinking.

He had originally wanted to refuse, but when he saw Ye Lingling's lovely face, he still let out a sigh.

"Fine, come in. Even though I know you're lying, I never refuse requests from pretty girls."

Ye Lingling's face reddened further. So he thought she was beautiful too?

It seemed there was a good chance she could win over the guy in front of her.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Lingling walked into the fairly tidy clinic.
