Heaven Dou Twin Flowers Offer Kisses?

"Little Friend Ye, this..."

Dugu Bo still wanted to say something.

Ye Han raised a hand to stop him, his gaze fixed on Ye Lingling.

"I can completely eliminate the flaw in your Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul!"

"But there's no such thing as a free lunch. In exchange, you must agree to three of my conditions!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Lingling stepped forward half a pace and bowed slightly.

"Please, tell me! As long as it can truly be resolved, I will agree to any request or condition!"

The shackles of their family's single-inheritance bloodline had burdened countless generations.

Now that there was hope of breaking them, she had to seize it no matter what!

Seize the future!!!

With a flick of his fingers, Ye Han produced an Immortal Herb that was jade-like from stem to leaf.

A faint fragrance spread through the air. Just one breath of it calmed the mind.

"This is—Aromatic Silk Beauty!"

"It absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, along with the radiance of the sun and moon!"

"It has an extremely powerful nourishing and transformative effect on support-type Martial Souls!"

"Consume it, and the flaw in your Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul will be completely resolved!"

The moment his words fell, everyone present was shaken.

"Aromatic Silk Beauty?!"

A glint flashed through Ye Guyi's eyes as she recalled records from later generations.

It seemed that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda had relied on this very Immortal Herb to evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!

Ye Lingling's delicate body trembled slightly, overwhelmed with excitement.

"Eat it now! Catch!"

Ye Han flicked his finger, sending it flying toward Ye Lingling's face.

Ye Lingling caught it steadily, then solemnly dropped to one knee before Ye Han.

"My deepest thanks! I'll absorb it right away!!"

She hesitated no longer, immediately sitting cross-legged to begin absorbing it.

Gentle white light flowed into her body through her brow, and the Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul behind her emerged on its own.

Its petals trembled lightly. With every sway, it shed a trace of mortal aura and gained another trace of sacred luster.

Everyone present could not help but look forward to what would happen.

If the Nine-Hearted Begonia truly resolved its flaw and could proliferate in the future...

Once its numbers grew large enough, could its status surpass that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?!

Time flashed by.

Soon, two and a half incense sticks' worth of time had passed.

Under everyone's watchful eyes.

Suddenly, the white light in the courtyard flared brilliantly.

Bzzzz!!

The originally nine-petaled begonia slowly unfurled.

The tenth petal, the eleventh petal... until it finally stopped at twelve petals.

Its color changed from pinkish white to holy white, while a faint golden glow shone from its stamens.

A gentle yet vast aura of life spread outward.

Even the withered weeds in the corner of the courtyard seemed nourished, turning green once more.

"This is..."

Dugu Bo's emerald eyes suddenly brightened.

"Martial Soul Evolution?!!"

Having experienced Martial Soul Evolution himself, he recognized it at a glance.

Sure enough, in the very next moment.

Ye Lingling opened her eyes and rose to her feet, her face full of excitement.

The invisible shackles deep within her Martial Soul had completely shattered.

In their place was an entirely new, crystalline power of purification!

"It really... it really worked!!"

Ye Lingling cried out, so excited that she revealed an unprecedentedly unrestrained side of herself.

"After consuming the Immortal Herb, my Martial Soul underwent a complete transformation and evolved into the 'Holy Heart Begonia'!!"

"I gained a purification ability, and any Soul Rings I acquire later may even grant other support effects!"

"And my Soul Power Level has surged all the way from level twenty-five to the limit of level thirty!"

"Most importantly, the Martial Soul flaw that had shackled my family for thousands—tens of thousands—of years has been completely resolved!"

The entire crowd was stunned.

A purification ability was extraordinarily rare!

And she might gain other support effects in the future—just how powerful would that be?!

Forget surpassing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda; even the Nine Treasure version could not compare!

Ye Han was somewhat surprised as well. The effect was unexpectedly good.

"Lingling! That's wonderful!"

Dugu Yan rushed over joyfully and grabbed her hand.

"Your Holy Heart Begonia is without question the number-one support Martial Soul in the world!"

Ye Lingling had just opened her mouth to reply.

When Dugu Yan suddenly leaned close to her ear.

She whispered a few things in a low voice.

Her gaze occasionally darted toward Ye Han in the distance.

"Ah?!"

Ye Lingling froze after hearing her.

A thin blush immediately spread across her lovely face.

In the end, she bit her red lip and nodded lightly.

The next moment, the two walked side by side toward Ye Han.

Dugu Yan wore a mischievous smile, while Ye Lingling's cheeks were crimson as sunset clouds.

"What are they trying to do?"

Ye Han could not make sense of it for a moment, muttering inwardly.

Then he saw both of them bend down.

Their hair fell loose, carrying a faint scent of grass and flowers.

One on each side, they simultaneously kissed Ye Han on both cheeks.

Warm, soft sensations came from both sides at once.

"Ah?!"

Ye Han's entire body stiffened.

The courtyard instantly became so quiet that a needle dropping could be heard.

Dugu Bo was initially stunned, then broke into a smile.

Xiao Wu stood frozen, angry and anxious, her heart sour with jealousy.

Wang Qiu'er's face instantly turned cold, as though she wanted to devour someone.

Ye Guyi was stunned as well, seemingly lost in thought.

"Cough!"

Noticing that Sister Guyi and the others did not look pleased.

Ye Han hurriedly put some distance between them and solemnly changed the subject.

"Even so, not one of the three conditions can be omitted!"

At once, Ye Lingling composed herself and nodded solemnly.

"That is only right! Please name them. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse!!"

Ye Han immediately said,

"In that case, I'll state the first requirement!"

"From this day onward, you must be loyal to me and serve me for at least ten years!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Lingling respectfully clasped her hands, her voice firm.

"You saved my life and gave me a new beginning. Forget ten years—even following you for a lifetime would not be excessive!"

But to Wang Qiu'er and Xiao Wu, those words only made their expressions worsen.

"Yanyan!"

At that moment, Dugu Bo quietly gave his granddaughter a look.

Dugu Yan understood at once and immediately bowed respectfully as well.

"Me too!!"

"You saved me, and you saved my grandfather. I am also willing to follow you for the rest of my life!!"

Wang Qiu'er and Xiao Wu's expressions darkened further at those words.

"Uh..."

This time, Ye Han was the one left dumbfounded.

Come on, girl~

Why were you, Dugu Yan, joining in on this?!

But when he glanced at Dugu Bo's expression, he instantly understood.

Was this old man trying to have his granddaughter seduce him so she could forge ties with him?!

But was Ye Han the kind of person who lusted after beauty?

Even if he died, even if he jumped off a cliff, he absolutely would not agree!

But...

"Cough!"

Ye Han gave a dry cough.

"Since that is the case, then let it be so for now!"

Since it was a buy-one-get-one deal, having both of them serve him was fine.

After all, he had already given them Immortal Herbs. Could he really just hand them over to another faction?!

"Wonderful!!"

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling immediately embraced each other.

(Asking you cuties!)

(Do you prefer the anime version of the Heaven Dou sisters, or the manga version???)

(Does anyone ship Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling? Do you want them to pursue the protagonist?!)

Seeing this, Ye Han was somewhat surprised by Ye Lingling's change.

But it was only natural. She had once been suppressed into silence by the flaw in her Martial Soul.

Now that the flaw had been resolved, if she did not change at all, she really would have been a block of wood!

"Right!"

Dugu Yan suddenly remembered something and darted over.

"If you have something to say, say it!"

Ye Han took a step back, afraid of being touched again and making Wang Qiu'er and the others bristle.

Dugu Yan immediately asked directly,

"So, how exactly did you achieve such heaven-defying Soul Ring configurations and Soul Power Levels?!"

Since they were already on the same boat, Ye Han did not hide it.

"As for Soul Power Levels, as you just experienced, it comes from consuming innate Immortal Herb treasures."

"And as for Soul Ring configurations? You don't actually think the Soul Ring theories you learned are absolutely correct, do you?!"
