The Flower Did Not Speak, and Neither Did They

"Fine."

Dong Jian raised his hand.

There was only a very shallow cut on the palm.

Blood beads had just begun to seep out.

It didn't even flow down my palm.

Li Man had already grabbed his wrist.

The jade-colored Soul Power shone brightly for a moment.

Then.

It slowly retreated.

She looked down at the wound.

Two breaths of silence.

Dong Jian also glanced down.

"This..."

Li Man looked up.

"How?"

"It seems like it really doesn't need treatment."

"I know."

"Then why are you still holding on?"

Li Man paused.

Let go immediately.

"I'm afraid you'll get your blood on the herbs."

Dong Jian glanced at himself and realized he was at least two steps away from the herbs.

They didn't expose it.

I just smiled.

Li Man frowned.

What are you laughing at?

"Nothing."

Then don't laugh.

Dong Jian withdrew his hand.

Gently press your thumb next to the wound.

The bleeding stopped quickly.

"This injury."

"There's no need to even call her Ye Lingling."

Li Man looked at him.

"Then go back and talk to her yourself."

"Say what?"

"I told you you were in Titled Douluo's herb garden."

"You can even cut yourself while moving a shelf."

Dong Jian's lips twitched.

"There's no need to report this, is there?"

beside.

Dugu Bo snorted coldly.

"Two Soul Ancestor."

"Move a broken frame."

"You can still dawdle for half a day."

Dong Jian turned his head.

"Senior."

"Why don't you do it yourself?"

"You broke it."

"..."

Dong Jian resigned himself to his fate and continued moving the ore.

Li Man stood to the side.

But they didn't leave immediately.

Because just now...

That white flower.

It's lit up.

It wasn't the almost imperceptible change I saw last night.

Rather, it is something that can be truly determined.

The red veins of the heart -Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

One.

Two.

It's as if fine lines of blood are slowly emerging from deep within the petals, awakening the creature.

white.

With red.

Originally clear.

At this moment, however, it felt as if something was pulling at me.

They overlapped gently.

Li Man remained silent.

Dong Jian was still busy moving things.

Until the last piece of ore was moved.

Dugu Bo confirmed that the medicinal root below was not damaged.

He just waved goodbye.

"Alright."

Don't touch anything else.

Dong Jian stood up.

Brush the dust off your hands.

I was just about to speak.

But then he noticed that Li Man was still looking behind him.

I turned my head, following her gaze.

That flower.

It's still lit.

The smile on Dong Jian's face slowly faded.

This time.

They did nothing.

No blood was dripped onto the flower.

He did not actively release his Martial Soul.

They didn't use their Soul Power to test him either.

They were still several steps away from Black Perish Stone.

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red and longing, underwent a change on its own.

"It's lit up again."

Dong Jian said.

Li Man gave a soft "hmm".

Neither of them approached.

This time they were even more cautious than last time.

The first two times could be explained.

first.

Li Man has an injury on her hand.

Perhaps it was blood.

Perhaps it is the Green Jade Dragon Bamboo.

It might just be a reaction to some special medication.

last night.

It was just a very slight flash.

It can also be considered an illusion.

Now.

There are hardly any excuses left.

The red veins in the center of the flower are becoming increasingly clear.

Then.

On the Black Perish Stone.

The white flower swayed very slightly.

There is no wind.

The cold and hot mists surrounding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

There was no noticeable flow at this moment.

The flower stem, however, slowly straightened.

Then.

The entire floral design.

Move upwards to leave Black Perish Stone.

It's very short.

Just one line.

It's as if there's some kind of invisible force at play.

I want to lift it up from the black rock.

Dong Jian's gaze sharpened.

Li Man's fingertips tightened unconsciously.

But that tiny distance...

It lasted only a moment.

The next moment.

The white flowers fell again.

The red lines did not immediately disappear.

It's just a little lighter than before.

Dugu Bo stood at a distance.

Watch it from beginning to end.

This time.

He finally came over.

Dong Jian asked:

"Senior."

"What does this mean?"

Dugu Bo glanced at the flowers.

He then looked at Li Man.

"You're asking me?"

This is your place.

"This is my place."

Dugu Bo said:

"It's not like I made it light up."

Dong Jian remained silent.

Li Man, however, asked a more direct question.

Is it recognizing a master?

Dugu Bo did not answer immediately.

Instead, they walked half a circle around Black Perish Stone.

Finally, it stopped.

"Still a long way off."

Dong Jian said:

So it is indeed related to recognizing a Lord?

Dugu Bo glanced at him.

"You're not so stupid now."

"..."

Dugu Bo did not continue to deliberately keep them in suspense.

"This stuff called 'Lovesick Heartbreak Red'."

"You really think it's a trivial matter to shed some blood?"

"Say a few more nice things."

"It will then go with people?"

He scoffed.

"Where in the world can you find such a cheap Immortal Herb?"

Li Man looked at the white flowers.

"Then what does it recognize?"

Dugu Bo remained silent for a moment.

"Recognize people."

Who is it?

Ask it yourself.

Li Man frowned.

Dugu Bo, however, was no longer prepared to explain in detail.

He just said it casually:

"This thing."

The most troublesome thing is never how to eat.

"It's not like they picked it that way."

Dong Jian asked:

What is that?

Dugu Bo looked at the two of them.

A faint, ambiguous smile suddenly appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"It's some people."

"His feelings were practically written all over his face."

"They're all incredibly stubborn."

Li Man's body stiffened for a moment.

Dong Jian didn't respond immediately.

Dugu Bo glanced at them.

I glanced at the flower again.

"Don't speak."

"Hua Du is about to speak up for you."

After saying that.

He turned and left.

They weren't given a chance to refute it at all.

The edge of the medicinal herb garden.

Only Dong Jian and Li Man remained.

And that white flower that had fallen silent again.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

Compared to when Dugu Yan examined the toxins earlier.

It's still difficult to handle.

Dong Jian spoke first.

"That guy..."

Li Man said:

"Don't continue."

I haven't finished speaking.

"Then don't say it."

Dong Jian had no choice but to shut up.

The two stood there for a while.

No one was looking at the other person.

In the end, Li Man went first.

I walked up to the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

Stop.

She didn't reach out to pick it.

Just squat down.

Quietly gazing at that Black Perish Stone.

Dong Jian walked to the side.

"You want to try?"

"In no mood."

"Then what are you looking at?"

"Have a look."

"..."

Li Man suddenly asked:

Do you think he's right?

Dong Jian knew she wasn't asking about the Immortal Herb.

There was a brief pause.

Which sentence?

Li Man turned her head to the side.

You really don't know?

Dong Jian remained silent.

Of course he knew.

But if I were to say I know...

The sentence that follows.

We must continue.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is very quiet.

The sound of hot and cold spring water mingling in the distance.

Instead, it became exceptionally clear.

Dong Jian ultimately did not pretend to be stupid.

"I know a little."

Li Man looked at him.

"How many?"

"Almost."

"Approximately how much?"

Dong Jian was stumped by the question.

You asked a lot of questions today.

"Because you haven't answered."

Dong Jian looked at her.

Li Man didn't dodge.

The two of them gazed at each other for a few moments.

at last.

Dong Jian laughed first.

It's very light.

And what about you?

Li Man's eyes flickered slightly.

"What?"

"That's what you just asked me."

How much do you know yourself?

Li Man did not answer.

This time it was her turn to look at the flowers.

Dong Jian didn't pressure him.

They were already on the verge of finding the answer.

Take one more step forward.

Many things will then be completely discussed.

If it were in the past...

Dong Jian might deliberately avoid it.

Li Man would then immediately change the subject.

But today.

Nobody did that.

only.

They didn't actually get over it.

It's not because I'm afraid.

But the Soul Master Tournament is just around the corner.

Everyone in the Imperial Fighting Team is preparing.

The two of them had just divided Mountain-Suppressing Dragon Bamboo into a public version and a complete version.

Dong Jian's Dark Gold Spine Armor is still a secret.

Li Man's "Ten Thousand Bamboos Return to the Veins has just been integrated into the actual team system.

Many things.

They are both moving forward at the same time.

When it comes to feelings...

It seems that they no longer need a flower to force an answer out of them.

At least.

Not today.

Li Man stood up.

I won't pick it.

Dong Jian looked at her.

"Why?"

Does it recognize me?

"That's its business."

Li Man said:

Should I say it?

"It's my business."

Dong Jian was taken aback.

He then nodded.

That makes sense.

"And you?"

"What about me?"

"Don't pretend."

Li Man looked at him.

This time, Dong Jian did not dodge.

"Then I'll wait for you to say it yourself."

Li Man's expression changed slightly.

Why should I go first?

"Then I can go first."

This sentence came out.

The air was quiet again.

Dong Jian himself paused for a moment.

Li Man's ears were noticeably redder.

But there was no refund.

"Then you tell me."

Dong Jian: "..."

Li Man looked at him.

Didn't you say it was okay?

Dong Jian suddenly realized...

When absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.

The pressure wasn't as great as it is now.

at last.

He still didn't say anything.

It's not that I'm afraid.

Instead, he looked at Li Man's eyes, which clearly held a hint of triumph.

I suddenly realized she was deliberately pushing me back.

"You did this on purpose?"

"No."

You smiled.

You've misunderstood.

Even the Divine Dragon Secret Realm isn't as good at lying as you.

Li Man finally couldn't hold back anymore.

I smiled.

That previously tense atmosphere.

They dispersed as well.

Neither of them confessed their feelings.

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

It still hasn't been picked.

This is different from the last time.

This time.

They no longer pretended to know nothing.

Dugu Bo's words.

They didn't finish what they were saying.

But they had already covered up the last layer of pretense.

I gently lifted a corner.

That afternoon.

The three left Sunset Forest.

Dugu Yan walked ahead.

After the status was adjusted.

My right arm feels noticeably more relaxed.

I spent the entire journey familiarizing myself with the rebalanced toxin usage.

Dong Jian and Li Man walked behind.

There was no deliberate attempt to stand side by side.

There was no deliberate attempt to widen it.

When the mountain road is narrow.

The backs of their hands occasionally touched.

first.

Li Man moved aside slightly.

The second time.

Dong Jian didn't move.

The third time.

No one moved.

Dugu Yan suddenly turned around.

Why are you two so quiet today?

Dong Jian said:

"On the road."

"We used to rush."

"Then why are you talking so much today?"

Dugu Yan narrowed her eyes.

His gaze swept back and forth between the two people.

at last.

I didn't ask anything.

He just slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Li Man saw it.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Nothing."

Then stop laughing.

Dong Jian heard this familiar phrase.

I almost burst out laughing too.

Li Man looked at him immediately.

"Shut up too."

I didn't say anything.

"Then let's continue."

evening.

The three returned to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Just entered the training area.

Yu Feng had already charged over.

"You're finally back."

Dugu Yan asked:

Something happened?

"No."

Yu Feng handed over the documents in his hand.

"Teacher Qin just received it."

"Latest list of participants."

Dugu Yan turned two pages.

They were all familiar with the college.

Thunderclap.

Blazing Fire.

Godwind.

Skywater Academy.

Elephant Armor.

Until you turn to the back.

The movement suddenly stopped.

"This..."

Dong Jian accepted it.

A list of participants from one college.

The name is familiar.

To be more precise.

The people on the list.

Too familiar.

First line.

Tang San.

under.

Xiao Wu.

Dai Mubai.

Oscar.

Ma Hongjun.

Ning Rongrong.

Zhu Zhuqing.

Not one was missing.

Dong Jian stared at the list for a few moments.

Deep within the Divine Dragon Secret Realm.

Those battle models recorded long ago.

It seems to have lit up again.

Suotuo City.

Eight Spider Lances.

Blue Silver Grass.

Xiao Wu got close.

Dai Mubai a strong attack.

All old data.

They're all still there.

only.

It's been too long.

Qin Ming walked out of the training room.

I saw the list in Dong Jian's hand.

He only said one sentence.

"Don't rush into research."

Dong Jian looked up.

"Why?"

Qin Ming looked at the seven familiar names.

"Because you two know each other."

"It's the old Shrek."

"Not the current one."

Dong Jian lowered his head again.

In the Divine Dragon Secret Realm.

Next to Tang San's old model.

A number slowly appeared.

Reliability.

It is steadily declining.
