"Of course I'm not kidding."
Lin Ye pulled her back to her seat, rubbed her forehead, and said domineeringly,
"What's mine is yours. If I let you use it, you can use it. Where's all the nonsense?"
"But... but this is too expensive..." Zhu Zhuqing bit her lip, feeling moved and confused at the same time.
She knew that Lin Ye was doing this for her own good, to make her stronger, and to close the gap between the two.
However, she also knew that this Soul Ring was also of great significance to Lin Ye.
This is his best choice for the ninth Soul Ring in the future!
"There's nothing precious or expensive." Lin Ye pinched her little face and said softly,
"Have you forgotten what I told you? You are my woman, my future wife. I don't want my wife to be unable to keep up with me in the future and be left behind by me."
"Moreover," Lin Ye changed the topic, smiled evilly and leaned into her ear, whispering,
"I have a lot of good things, and there will be even better ones in the future. Just a Divine Bestowed Soul Ring, just think of it as a betrothal gift I gave you in advance."
The warm breath sprayed on the auricle, making Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks turn red instantly.
She lowered her head in shame, feeling sweet in her heart.
"Who... who wants your bride price..."
She muttered softly, but did not refuse again.
She knew she couldn't refuse.
She must become stronger to be qualified to stand by this man's side forever.
"Then... then I'll accept it."
Zhu Zhuqing stretched out his slightly trembling hand and took the golden bead.
The beads feel warm and moist in the hand, as if they are alive.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Divine Bestowed Soul Ring in his hand, his eyes gradually becoming firm.
"Lin Ye, don't worry, I won't let you down!"
Spirit Hall's team galloped all the way without making any stops along the way.
Three days later, the group finally returned to the heavily guarded Spirit City.
As soon as Bibi Dong returned to the Papal Palace, he immediately issued a series of orders.
First, she announced that Spirit Hall had entered the highest level of alert. All elders and core personnel were not allowed to leave Spirit City without her order.
Secondly, she summoned all the people who followed them to Star Dou Great Forest to the Elder Hall. As the pope, she warned them in the harshest terms that they must keep the contents of this operation secret. Especially about Lin Ye and Divine Inheritance, not even a word could be revealed to the outside world.
Anyone who disobeys the order, regardless of status, will be punished for treason, implicating the nine clans!
After dealing with these matters, Bibi Dong called Lin Ye and Zhu Zhuqing to his bedroom alone.
"Ye'er, Zhuqing, you two, from today on, you will stay in the Papal Palace to practice, and you are not allowed to go anywhere." Bibi Dong looked at them and said in an unquestionable tone,
"Zhuqing, your current Soul Power has reached the bottleneck of level 69 and may break through at any time. What you have to do now is to calm down and hit the mark of level 70 with all your strength."
"Yes, teacher." Zhu Zhuqing replied respectfully.
Bibi Dong This is creating the best cultivation environment for her.
"Lin Ye, you too." Bibi Dong turned to look at Lin Ye,
"Although you have just broken through to level 85, your foundation is still a bit unstable. In the past few days, you should consolidate your cultivation level, and by the way, protect Zhuqing."
"No problem, teacher, I promise to complete the task!" Lin Ye patted his chest and said with a smile.
Bibi Dong looked at his careless look and shook his head helplessly, but his eyes were full of doting.
"Okay, you two are tired too, go down and rest first." Bibi Dong waved his hand.
In the next few days, Lin Ye and Zhu Zhuqing lived a solitary life in the Papal Palace.
Lin Ye, in addition to consolidating his own cultivation and getting familiar with the newly acquired Soul Skill and Soul Bone, stays with Zhu Zhuqing every day and guides her in her cultivation.
And Zhu Zhuqing also showed unprecedented hard work and hard work.
The gap between myself and Lin Ye is really too big.
She wanted to be a partner who could fight side by side with him and face the wind and rain together.
With the support of this strong belief, Zhu Zhuqing's cultivation progress has been rapid.
Finally, in the early morning of the fifth day.
Zhu Zhuqing, who was sitting cross-legged in the training room, suddenly trembled!
A powerful wave of Soul Power exploded with her as the center!
The Soul Power in her body that had been stagnant for a long time finally broke through the shackles of the sixty-ninth level at this moment, and surged unstoppably towards the seventy-level Soul Sage!
"A breakthrough is coming!"
Lin Ye, who had been standing by the side, perked up and immediately stood up, looking at Zhu Zhuqing with burning eyes.
Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks were flushed red due to the violent impact of Soul Power, a layer of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his body was shaking slightly, obviously suffering from great pain.
Breaking through from Soul Emperor to Soul Sage is a huge leap, and it is a huge hurdle for any Soul Master.
"Zhuqing, steady your mind! Don't be distracted, guide Soul Power and hit the bottleneck!"
Lin Ye's voice clearly reached Zhu Zhuqing's ears, instantly clearing her somewhat confused mind.
Zhu Zhuqing gritted his teeth, followed Lin Ye's instructions, tried his best, mobilized all the Soul Power in his body, and launched the final attack against the invisible but real barrier!
"Boom!"
It was as if something was breaking inside her body!
Zhu Zhuqing felt a lightness all over his body, and an unprecedented sense of comfort spread throughout his body.
She succeeded!
She finally broke through to level 70 and became a real Soul Sage!
"Huh..."
Zhu Zhuqing took a long breath of relief and slowly opened his eyes.
"I... I succeeded! Lin Ye, I broke through!"
She looked at Lin Ye with tears in her eyes.
"I know, you succeeded."
Lin Ye walked up to her, stretched out his hand, gently wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said with a smile,
"I knew that my Big Cat was the best."
Zhu Zhuqing felt very sweet after being praised by his sweetheart.
She was about to say something, but Lin Ye suddenly stopped smiling and her expression became serious.
"Zhuqing, now is not the time to be happy." Lin Ye said in a deep voice,
"You have just made a breakthrough, it is the best time to absorb Seventh Soul Ring. Don't waste time, start now!"
Saying that, Lin Ye asked Zhu Zhuqing to take out the Divine Bestowed Soul Ring.
"This..."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at the beads in his hand, still hesitant.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Lin Ye's tone was unquestionable,
"Remember, Divine Bestowed Soul Ring, its lifespan has no fixed value. Its upper limit is completely determined by your own ability to bear it."
"Your physical body, your Spiritual Power, and your willpower, no matter how much energy impact you can withstand, it will eventually become Soul Ring for how many years."
"So, Zhuqing, wait a minute, no matter how much pain you feel, you must grit your teeth and hold on! The longer you hold on, the greater the benefits you will get! The battle between you and it has just begun! Do you understand?"
