Jiaojiao: Follow him, experience him...

In a secluded mountain cave.

Jiaojiao coldly sized up Lu Cheng, her two large petals like arms wrapped around her chest. "Tell me, why aren't you with your two women, coming to me, a pitiful flower that I can easily manipulate, betray, and discard like a tool?"

Lu Cheng: "..."

It's clear that he harbors a lot of resentment.

Lu Cheng reached out a finger and gently touched the vibrant petals.

The large, bright red, rose-like flower trembled violently, even with a hint of anthropomorphic shame and anger, and abruptly turned to look at Lu Cheng. This was its weakness, and its fatal flaw, which was rarely known to outsiders.

"What are you doing!" Jiaojiao shouted angrily.

"If I said I would become a god in this lifetime, would you believe me?" Lu Cheng asked eagerly.

Jiaojiao: "..."

"You dare bring this up again?! I'll kill you today, or I'll change my surname to yours!!!" Jiaojiao Jiao roared furiously, baring her teeth and brandishing her claws, her already vibrant red petals now burning even hotter and redder.

To outsiders, she would probably be so frightened that they would turn and run away instantly, but to Lu Cheng, she was not much of a threat. If the other party really resented him and wanted to kill him, given Jiaojiao's personality, she would not allow him to enter this valley alive.

Everything we're doing now is an expression of discontent.

"Jiaojiao, I'm sorry..." Lu Cheng sighed softly.

"Does 'sorry' do any good?" Jiaojiao snapped, hands on her hips.

"If you're dissatisfied, you can take my life right now..." Lu Cheng exhaled softly, staring calmly at Jiaojiao Jiao, "I willingly offered myself up. Even if you really kill me, you won't say a word. This is the consequence of me toying with your feelings, and I accept it..."

"You..." Jiaojiao was stunned. The sparks of light swirling around her slowly dissipated, as if her arrogance had been extinguished.

Ma Xiaotao leaned lazily against a giant rock, her narrow phoenix eyes occasionally glancing towards the cave, a hint of anxiety flashing across her face.

"Are you afraid Jiaojiao will kill him?" Youyou asked curiously from the side.

Nonsense, Jiaojiao's attitude was never quite right. When she arrived, she seemed to want to burn that human to death. After entering the cave, she was filled with terrifying power from the Infernal Delicate Apricot, like a raging sea of fire or a molten lava inferno. Even it trembled outside the cave.

"Hehe..." Ma Xiaotao chuckled softly, raising her slender hand to idly examine her nails, which were being painted with lentils. "That big flower wouldn't dare kill Lu Cheng; it's just a bluff at best."

What she was really worried about was whether that big flower would be so shameless as to transform into something and eat Lu Cheng.

She was here first!

Lu Cheng is now like Tang Sanzang; everyone is searching for him, but who can get the first bite depends on their own methods.

Sure enough, footsteps came from inside the cave, growing louder and louder.

Ma Xiaotao narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, her gaze falling on the dark cave entrance. She was still toying with the Level 7 Soul Tool she'd used before. Winter Descends; if that big flower dared to steal a bite, she'd unleash a cannon without hesitation, regardless of whether it was effective or not...

As Lu Cheng emerged from the cave, his expression calm, she finally breathed a sigh Winter Descends relief. She slowly released her grip on his slender hand, revealing a smile, "You've reached an agreement?"

"Hmph~"

Jiaojiao, standing behind Ma Xiaotao, naturally noticed Ma Xiaotao's hostility. Back in the Holy Spirit Cult, as Lu Cheng's Soul Spirit, she had always disliked him, and now they were naturally at odds.

"Youyou, I'll leave things in the valley to everyone from now on..." Jiaojiao snorted Jiaojiao and turned to look at Youyou.

"Jiaojiao, you..." Youyou looked bewildered.

"I will continue to follow him," Jiaojiao's tone softened, "To become his Soul Spirit and help him ascend to godhood."

He looked down at Lu Cheng.

In her eyes, the boy gradually merged with the majestic figure in her memory, proudly overlooking the world and reaching the highest point. This was his charm. She wanted to become his Soul Spirit and accompany him to experience everything in the world. Although she complained a lot, her body was unusually honest.

The boy's charisma in her memory left her not only with awe but also with admiration.

What she hated was never that he dragged her down to her death, but that he deceived her. She was willing to give her Life and experience death with him, but she despised deception above all else.

"Huh?!!" Youyou was speechless.

My best friend of tens of thousands of years has been tricked like this?!

"You're going to sacrifice yourself to humans?" Her simple-minded mind gradually began to process what she was seeing.

"Good, from now on... the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well will be in your hands." Jiao Jiao said Jiaojiao.

"Oh, right, let me help you complete your Martial Soul Evolution first." Jiaojiao ignored Youyou, who was disheveled in the wind, looked down at Lu Cheng, and said softly, "My dear."

"Owner..."

Youyou:"???"

"By the way, during this crucial period, no unauthorized personnel should approach..." Jiao Jiao glanced indifferently at Ma Xiaotao, whose face was dark with Jiaojiao, and said leisurely.

"Who are you calling irrelevant people?" Ma Xiaotao clenched her fists, veins bulging on her fair forehead, her eyes blazing as she glared at Jiaojiao.

"At least you have some self-awareness." Jiaojiao snorted lightly, staring indifferently at Ma Xiaotao.

"You bitch, I know exactly what you're up to," Ma Xiaotao snapped.

"Hehe, you have dirty thoughts, don't drag me into it. I just don't want my master to be disturbed by some irrelevant people Martial Soul Awakening." Jiaojiao Shuangye crossed her arms and looked down indifferently.

The two women were in full force.

A Divine Fire Phoenix and a celestial Immortal Herb, two illusory figures poised to strike, each appearing behind a person and a herb, respectively.

Youyou stood to the side, trembling.

The smell of gunpowder is strong.

Wait, is this Jiaojiao she knows?!

"Please hear me out," Lu Cheng said sincerely.

"Shut up!" x2

Both the person and the blade of grass looked at Lu Cheng at the same time.

Lu Cheng shrank back, looking Youyou he squatted down next to Youyou, who was trembling beside him.

"Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew?"

Beside a clear pool, Lu Cheng sat cross-legged in the water, watching as a fiery red flower carefully took out a Immortal Herb from its stamen. The herb was unremarkable, entirely green with three snow-white leaves in the center, and a few drops of water remained in the center of each leaf, like morning dew.

"Indeed, although this Immortal Herb isn't the most top-tier, it's perfectly suited to your Blood Pupils Martial Soul," Jiao Jiao said Jiaojiao.

Swallow it.

"Good."

Lu Cheng no longer hesitated and swallowed it directly.

As a cool and comfortable sensation spread from his throat into his body, he sat cross-legged on the ground and quickly began to circulate his Golden Core Skill, not wanting to waste a single drop of the medicinal power.

A cooling sensation spread rapidly throughout his body, quickly rushing towards his brain. Lu Cheng did not stop him, and in an instant, the medicinal power completely enveloped his eyes. There was no pain, no soreness, only a cool and comfortable sensation.

A few minutes later.

When Lu Cheng opened his eyes again...

Two pupils appeared in his eye sockets, one black and one red. However, the red pupil quickly took over the center of his eye socket, while the black pupil shrank and pressed tightly against the red pupil.
