Fate Alteration! Ye Lingling Swears Fealty!
"What?!"
Ye Lingling swayed and almost fell.
Dugu Yan quickly helped her up, "Lingling!"
"My mother... she's been perfectly fine, how could she suddenly become critically ill?"
Meng Shenji sighed, "This is the curse of the Nine-Heart Begonia!"
"Lingling, go home now. Education Committee Bai will go with you!"
Ye Hua and Dugu Yan exchanged glances and followed.
The Ye Family lives in the western part of Heaven Dou City, not far from here.
Ye Lingling rushed into the bedroom and pounced on the bed.
Lying on the bed was a haggard-looking woman in her early forties, with Soul Saint aura and features that resembled Ye Lingling by about 70%.
But at this moment, her face was pale and her breath was weak. The Nine-Heart Begonia was a saint of healing, but alas, even a healer cannot heal himself.
"Mother!" Ye Lingling grasped her mother's hand.
Ye's mother barely opened her eyes and reached out to touch her daughter's cheek.
"No! No way! There must be another way!"
Despite her weakness, Ye Lingling summoned the Nine-Heart Begonia.
A dreamy purple spread out, covering the room, yet it couldn't pull off the leaf mother's state.
On the contrary, Ye Lingling, having exhausted her remaining Soul Power, fell heavily into Dugu Yan's arms.
Ye Hua stepped forward and, sensing Ye's mother's weakness, shook his head slightly.
Such ailments lie in fate, not in the body; Hundred-Grass Pill are useless in this case.
"Silly child," Ye's mother slowly shook her head, "Don't waste your energy."
"Many ancestors tried to escape their fate, even swearing oaths to beg for help, but they all turned to dust."
"I heard you had an accident, but you're back safe and sound now. Your sister has also successfully awakened. It was just my fate to die."
"No," Ye Lingling hugged her mother, "It's my fault, Mother!"
"Lingling!" Dugu Yan grabbed her arm, "It's not your fault!"
"Is it my mother's fault? Is it my sister's fault?" Ye Lingling couldn't stop her tears. "Why is there such a curse!"
The room fell silent.
No one can answer that.
The curse has lasted for a century, and every generation of the Ye Family has lived in fear.
They fear that one day, a third person will appear, and their loved ones will die.
"I'll give it a try." Ye Hua's eyes narrowed slightly.
Coincidentally, after Ye Lingling's death, someone in the Ye Family awakened the Nine-Heart Begonia.
If he uses the Hundred-Grass Pill Ye Lingling, then someone from the Ye Family must die.
Mother Ye smiled. "You must be Lingling's friend, right? Don't worry about me, it's all fate."
"What if I could Fate Alteration?"
"How could that be? Don't be silly, child."
Seeing that Ye Hua insisted on placing his hand on her forehead despite her refusal, Ye's mother nodded kindly.
Dugu Yan, however, felt a glimmer of hope and took Ye Lingling's hand to comfort her. If Ye Hua could revive the dead with his elixirs, perhaps he could also reverse fate?
But this is so mind-blowing!
Ye Hua took a deep breath.
[Qilin Exclusive Skill - Fate Alteration] Activated!
A brilliant Gold Trial light flashed, enveloping Ye Mu!
Countless threads appeared before Ye Hua's eyes, the most conspicuous of which was blood red, one end connected to nothingness and the other to Ye's mother.
The remaining three lines are the thickest, intertwined and tearing at each other.
That is the destiny thread of the Nine-Heart Begonia, connecting Ye's mother, Ye Lingling, and her younger sister Ye Shuang.
Two lines can coexist, but if a third line appears, one of them must break.
Now, it is the leaf mother that has broken.
Ye Hua reached out and grasped the snapping thread.
A tremendous backlash surged from the thread, rushing up his arm and straight to his brain!
"Get down on your knees!" Ye Hua shouted.
Bang!
The backlash energy that surged into the body was instantly suppressed by the Qilin Qi!
Ye Hua used a little force to straighten and straighten the invisible threads one by one.
Intersecting lines become parallel lines, and upper limit two becomes upper limit three.
"Done!"
Ye Hua clapped his hands and yawned.
It's alright. Making a small Fate Alteration doesn't take much effort; it's just a little bit of staying up late.
[bite--]
[Host detected using the "Fate Alteration" skill, consuming a small amount of mental energy.]
[Host, please do not use this lightly or recklessly, otherwise the fate of the continent will descend into chaos, and only a god can bring it back to order.]
"I know," Ye Hua rubbed his temples. "I just changed two to three, not seven to nine in the name of thousands of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower!"
"Mother! Mother, your complexion has returned to normal!" Ye Lingling hugged her mother tightly.
Ye's mother stared in disbelief at the back of her hand, which was no longer deathly pale, and stood there dumbfounded.
"Lingling, help me up!"
"Mother, you just woke up, you can't—"
"Help me up!"
Ye Lingling couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to help her mother out of bed.
Ye's mother knelt down directly in front of Ye Hua.
"My benefactor, the Ye Family has suffered from the curse of the Nine-Heart Begonia for generations!"
"Today, our benefactor has lifted the curse; the Ye Family has no way to repay him!"
"Our ancestors said that whoever can break the curse of the Nine-Heart Begonia will have the eldest daughter of the Ye Family worship as their master, and the entire clan will obey their commands!"
"Lingling, kneel down!"
Ye Lingling was stunned for a moment, then knelt down beside her mother.
"From this day forward, Ye Lingling is the servant of her benefactor. The entire Ye Family is at her beck and call."
"Get up, get up," Ye Hua reached out to help Ye's mother up, "Why do this!"
"The Ye Family is clear about its grudges and debts, and besides, we dare not disobey the oath of our ancestors!"
Seeing that Ye's mother was adamant, Ye Hua finally did not refuse.
Bai Baoshan witnessed this from the sidelines, his feelings complicated.
He's lived over sixty years in vain, having seen countless geniuses and prodigies!
I have never seen anyone defy the rules of heaven and earth!
Just who is this young man?
"Teacher Ye," Bai Baoshan transmitted his voice through his Soul Power, "I will keep this matter a secret."
"But I must advise you, showing off your talents can easily bring trouble!"
"You first cured Poison Douluo, then invented a new weapon, and now you can even defy the rules of heaven and earth..."
Even His Majesty would be wary of you, wouldn't he?
Ye Hua didn't want to refuse his good intentions, "Thank you for the reminder, Education Committee Bai. I will pay attention."
In fact, his current power is enough to overturn the tables with the Two Great Empires and dine at the same table with the Spirit Hall.
Seeing that he had listened, Bai Baoshan didn't linger any longer. "It seems the problem is solved. I shouldn't stay any longer. Please wait!"
"Lingling, you're better now, you should rest," Dugu Yan said.
"With me on the team and Tian Heng still unconscious, I'll temporarily take the captain's position!"
"Yanzi ..." Ye Lingling pursed her lips.
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself," Dugu Yan stood up. "Ye Hua, I'm entrusting Lingling to you!"
Without waiting for a reply, she left, leaving Ye Hua and her best friend alone.
Ye Lingling was immediately at a loss, her hands waving in the air, not knowing what to do with them.
"Lingling," Mother Ye said with a smile, "It's getting late, Mother should rest."
"You will serve your master and stay at our Ye Family's residence for the night!"
"Mother!!!"
Ye Lingling was filled with shame and indignation, but she still led Ye Hua to the guest room.
"Master~" Ye Lingling took off Ye Hua's coat.
Seeing her flustered, Ye Hua placed the coat on the bed.
But when he immediately put the bed up and then put it on the back of the chair, he lost his balance and fell to the floor.
"Stop!" Ye Hua exclaimed, both amused and exasperated. "Are you in such a hurry to serve me in bed?"
Ye Lingling, caught off guard and embarrassed, stammered, "Isn't that right? Master and maid..."
"Stop," Ye Hua raised an eyebrow, "Where did you get all this strange knowledge from?"
"Leaving aside the fact that you're not ready, given your current condition, can you really serve me in bed?"
Ye Lingling was speechless. As Soul Master, she was too weak to serve the Emperor in bed; it would only be a disappointment.
Ye Hua sighed helplessly, "I have to get back tonight, otherwise Xiao Wu and the others will go crazy with worry! Fighting Evil Soul Master is no child's play!"
"You should rest first, and come back when you're ready."
Ye Lingling blushed and dared not meet Ye Hua's gaze, only letting out soft moans.
Ye Hua spread his Yinglong Wings and soared into the sky.
When he rushed back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he found that the person greeting him at the gate was not Xiao Wu and the others, but Ning Fengzhi—
Ye Hua's lips twitched.
It seems he stood me up...
[Xue Qinghe] smiled faintly, "Mr. Ye is such a busy man. I prepared a banquet today, but I didn't expect you to be in such a hurry."
"Enough, enough, the fault lies with me, the Crown Prince. I wonder if you, sir, would do me the honor of being my student?"
