Chapter 446 Compensation for Meng Yiran
Watching Ye Qifeng take out a peculiar herb from his storage ring—white with a hint of purple, shaped like a dragon, yet exuding a chilling aura that cuts to the bone.
Meng Yiran blinked her large, blue-gray eyes, a hint of doubt in her eyes, and asked Ye Qifeng:
"This is what you meant by something that will allow me to safely absorb the Human-Faced Demon Spider's soul ring? Is it really that magical?"
"That's right, it's enough."
Ye Qifeng smiled slightly, nodded affirmatively, and then asked:
Have you ever heard of miraculous medicinal herbs?
Meng Yiran shook her head.
Seeing this, Ye Qifeng had no choice but to explain the relevant knowledge about immortal-grade medicinal herbs to her in detail:
"The so-called celestial herbs are rare treasures of heaven and earth, naturally grown and nurtured by nature."
After listening to Ye Qifeng's explanation and learning about the powerful effects of the celestial herbs, Meng Yiran was completely shocked:
"So, this dragon-shaped herb, entirely white with a purplish tinge, is a celestial herb?"
Night Breeze nodded gently:
"Yes, it is actually a Ganoderma lucidum, named Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon Chant."
After a slight pause, Ye Qifeng glanced at Meng Yiran, whose face was full of curiosity, and then began to introduce its origin and attributes:
"Purple Ganoderma and Snow Dragon's Roar" typically grows in extremely cold regions.
"The one I have here was found in a treasure trove of unique environment."
"Because it contains extreme ice properties, any creature that gets close to it is very likely to be frozen into dust. Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people, the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar is a highly poisonous substance."
"However, its icy aura has been suppressed by me for the time being and will not cause you any harm, so there is no need to be afraid."
After explaining the origin and properties of the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar, Ye Qifeng then proceeded to introduce its effects:
"In addition to its extreme ice attribute, the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar also contains the bloodline of the Snow Dragon, which has a very strong amplification effect on Dragon Seed Weapon Souls, and even has a very high probability of allowing Dragon Seed Weapon Souls to evolve and obtain the extreme ice attribute."
"Moreover, Zizhi Xuelongyin also has a great strengthening effect on the user, with the effects of strengthening the foundation and nourishing the body, and transforming the body."
"Of course, the prerequisite is that the user must be able to resist the extreme icy poison within."
After speaking, Ye Qifeng looked at Meng Yiran, whose expression was becoming increasingly shocked:
"Your martial soul is the Serpent Staff, which happens to be a Dragon-type weapon martial soul. This Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar is very suitable for you. As long as you consume it, your physique and talent will be greatly strengthened and improved."
Meng Yiran raised her head in disbelief:
"Oh? You're giving me such a precious medicinal herb?"
Ye Qifeng looked at her:
"Otherwise, how could you have gone beyond your limits to absorb the Human-Faced Demon Spider's soul ring? I promised you I would make it up to you."
"Speaking of which, that human-faced demon spider was originally yours. Giving it to you as compensation is actually a bit unreasonable."
"Consider this Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar as compensation for my previous act of stealing your Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent."
Meng Yiran blushed:
"How could I accept this? Why are you being so good to me?"
Ye Qifeng looked at her with a half-smile:
What do you think?
Meng Yiran seemed to realize something, her pretty face flushed even redder, and her eyes darted around, not daring to meet Ye Qifeng's gaze.
Does he have feelings for me? We've only met twice, I think.
But he's really so kind. He's handsome, powerful, and so generous. He just gave me such a precious medicinal herb without any hesitation. That's too good to be true.
If he really likes me, should I say yes, or yes?
Meng Yiran was in a state of confusion and didn't know how to answer.
"Alright, don't be nervous, I was just kidding. Hurry up and consume this Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar. It's very simple to consume, just eat it directly."
Just as Meng Yiran was about to make up her mind, Ye Qifeng shoved the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar directly into her hand:
"By the way, you don't need to worry about the extreme icy poison contained in the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar. I have already removed and purified it using a special method."
"Right now, it only has pure, extreme ice-attribute energy. You just need to withstand the impact of the ice-attribute energy and focus on refining the medicinal power."
"You don't need to worry about that. I will use a special technique to help you balance your energy and accelerate the refining of the medicine in a moment."
At this point, Ye Qifeng pointed to the half-dead human-faced demon spider on the ground:
"As for this human-faced demon spider, I will spare its life and ensure that it continues to live for at least four more hours."
"If you trust me, once we leave here and find a safe place to stay, you can start taking Zizhi Xuelongyin."
…………
The reason why Ye Qifeng was so good to Meng Yiran and gave her so many benefits was certainly not because he coveted her beauty. Well, although there was a little bit of that, it wasn't much.
The main purpose was to target the "Peerless Dragon and Snake" behind Meng Yiran—Dragon Lord Meng Shu and Snake Lady Chao Tianxiang, as well as the Dragon and Snake Mansion and the Beast Academy they represented.
Maintaining a good relationship with Meng Yiran is the prerequisite.
Meng Yiran is, after all, the rightful heir of the Dragon and Snake Mansion and the apple of the eye of the peerless Dragon and Snake. It would be entirely beneficial to maintain a good relationship with her.
The Dragon and Snake couple are influential figures in the Barak Kingdom. If possible, it would be best to win them over to the Spirit Hall.
To prevent them from serving the Heaven Dou Empire and opposing the Spirit Hall in the future.
Furthermore, the Dragon and Snake Manor, led by the Dragon and Snake Couple, and their subordinate academy, the Beast Academy, constitute the most powerful Soul Master force in the Barak Kingdom.
Bringing the Dragon Serpent Palace and the Beast Academy under the Spirit Hall's control would be of immense benefit to the Spirit Hall.
First, this will inevitably weaken the strength of the Barak Kingdom and even the Heaven Dou Empire, while strengthening the Spirit Hall.
Secondly, it can also undermine and severely damage the Barak Kingdom from within, serving as an inside agent for the Spirit Hall to take over the Barak Kingdom in the future.
The Kingdom of Barak borders the Spirit Hall, making its geographical location extremely important. It is a piece of land that the Spirit Hall must first seize when it wants to unify the Douluo Continent.
Furthermore, the Kingdom of Barak possesses the fertile Lima Plain, which is rich in grain and serves as the granary of the Heavenly Dou Empire.
For all these reasons, Ye Qifeng had to pay attention to the Dragon and Snake couple, as well as the Dragon and Snake Mansion and the Beast Academy they represented.
Of course, we need to win over Meng Yiran first.
That doesn't mean he deceived the girl's feelings, does it?
After all, Ye Qifeng has no relationship with Meng Yiran now. Although he has his own agenda and a little bit of exploitation involved, he first offers benefits to try to build a good relationship before talking about anything else.
This should be considered a kind of exchange of benefits.
Importantly, he had no intention of deceiving or harming Meng Yiran.
He's not like that third brother who deceives women's feelings, takes advantage of others' trust to do his own selfish things, and then abandons them after using them, giving them no benefit and even hurting them in return.
…………
Having said all that, Meng Yiran felt embarrassed if she no longer trusted Ye Qifeng.
They quickly followed Ye Qifeng's instructions, and together they took the human-faced demon spider and its eight legs to a safer place to stay.
Afterwards, Meng Yiran found a clean spot where she had settled down, sat cross-legged, and began to take the immortal-grade Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar.
Ye Qifeng infused the half-dead human-faced demon spider with a trace of yin and yang energy to keep it alive, then tossed it aside.
He then sat cross-legged behind Meng Yiran and activated the Yin-Yang Heavenly Power to help her refine and absorb the medicinal power of the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar.
…………
the other side.
Time passed slowly.
Under the protection of the Titan Giant Ape Erming, the red light on Xiaowu's body gradually subsided, transforming into layers of purple light, which then turned into starlight and gradually condensed into a ring-shaped object.
Finally, a purple halo completely formed on Xiao Wu's body, revealing itself to be a thousand-year soul ring.
After the purple spirit ring was formed, it immediately began to move up and down rhythmically, along with the other two yellow hundred-year spirit rings, centered on Xiao Wu's body.
"Erming, take me back."
Once the soul ring had fully condensed, Xiao Wu opened her eyes and immediately gave instructions to the Titan Giant Ape.
Despite her extreme reluctance, under the intimidating gaze of the mischievous rabbit, the Titan Ape quietly escorted her back to the vicinity of Shrek and his group.
Then they returned to the Lake of Life in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.
After the Titan Ape left, Tang Hao, who had been following from the shadows, glanced at Xiao Wu, then at the Titan Ape. His eyes, hidden in his tattered black robe and hat, flickered slightly, but he ultimately decided to stay.
They escorted Xiao Wu back to Shrek Academy with the rest of the group.
Meanwhile, the ghostly figure, also hidden in the shadows and unnoticed by anyone, immediately transformed into a wisp of mist and chased after the Titan Ape, continuing its pursuit.
His target was never Xiao Wu, that mischievous rabbit, but the Titan Ape, the Azure Bull Python, and their habitat—the Lake of Life.
…………
At this moment.
Zhao Wuji was extremely angry.
That bastard Tang San actually managed to sneak out while he wasn't paying attention.
There's also Ye Qifeng, the "brother" of the little girl Zhu Zhuqing.
The fact that the two people disappeared right under his nose made Zhao Wuji lose face.
If Ye Qifeng was going to his death, Zhao Wuji wouldn't say anything. Besides, Zhu Zhuqing wasn't worried, so he had even less to say.
But Tang San was a student of Shrek Academy, and as his teacher, he certainly couldn't just sit idly by.
Upon discovering that Tang San was missing, Zhao Wuji immediately woke everyone up and led them to follow the tracks left by the Titan Giant Ape.
However, at this time, the forest was full of rampaging soul beasts. Even though Zhao Wuji had the strength of a Soul Saint and was assisted by Oscar and Ning Rongrong, he only chased for more than ten kilometers before he dared not go any further.
We can only proceed slowly and cautiously.
As a result, Tang San didn't find her, but instead encountered Xiao Wu, who had been captured by the Titan Giant Ape but was unharmed.
After the mischievous rabbit hopped back to Shrek Academy, he used the Azure Bull Python as an excuse and explained the situation at length, finally regaining the trust of the Shrek members.
But then she suddenly realized that her third brother was not there. The rogue rabbit was almost frantic and hurriedly urged everyone to go and look for him.
Hidden in the shadows, Tang Hao's heart tightened as well. He ignored Xiao Wu and, with a swift movement, set off to find Tang San.
In his haste and anger, Tang Hao killed every soul beast he encountered on his journey with his hammer.
…………
After being frightened by Ye Qifeng, he fled in a sorry state.
Whether it was good luck or some dirty thing interfering in the dark, Tang San was fortunate enough to encounter a half-dead human-faced demon spider, which was also over two thousand years old.
Having exhausted all his strength to kill the Man-Faced Demon Spider in its final, desperate attempt to save Xiao Wu, Tang San, after only a short rest, hastily began absorbing the spirit rings extracted from the spider.
Thanks to Tang Hao's secret intervention to clear the obstacles, the Shrek group quickly found Tang San.
However, by the time they arrived, Tang San was already at the most crucial moment in absorbing the spirit ring of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, and it was too late to interrupt him.
Xiao Wu, Tang Hao who was hiding in the shadows, and everyone from Shrek Academy could only watch helplessly as Tang San was tortured to the point of near death by a Human-Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring that exceeded the theoretical limits of Soul Masters.
…………
On the other side of the forest.
In the blink of an eye, three hours had passed.
With Ye Qifeng's help, Meng Yiran successfully absorbed the immortal herb Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar, greatly enhancing her physique. As a result, she was able to successfully absorb the Human-Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring.
The effects of the divine medicinal herb Purple Ganoderma and Snow Dragon's Roar are, of course, not limited to this.
Meng Yiran's martial soul thus evolved into the super martial soul Dragon Spear and Serpent Staff. The martial soul can freely switch between the two forms of Dragon Spear and Serpent Staff, which is equivalent to having two martial souls.
Of course, this is a symbiotic relationship, but it is not a twin martial soul.
The Dragon Spear and Serpent Staff possess both dragon and serpent attributes. The Dragon Spear contains the oppressive aura of a snow dragon, while the Serpent Staff possesses the venomous attribute of a serpent. In addition, the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar also endows the Dragon Spear and Serpent Staff with extreme ice attributes.
The mere presence of the Purple Ganoderma Snow Dragon's Roar brought about such a tremendous change in Meng Yiran that even Ye Qifeng was surprised.
Meng Yiran was overjoyed and utterly shocked.
"Miss Meng, go and kill the human-faced spider. It won't last much longer; if we wait any longer, it might be gone."
Seeing Meng Yiran's excited face, Ye Qifeng smiled slightly and offered a reminder.
"Yes, yes, first absorb the soul ring of the human-faced demon spider."
Meng Yiran snapped out of her excitement and hurried toward the human-faced demon spider.
But after taking only a few steps, she suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked intently at Ye Qifeng.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Qifeng assumed she was worried about the safety of absorbing the Human-Faced Demon Spider's soul ring beyond her limits, and immediately assured her:
"Don't worry, I wouldn't joke about your safety. With your current physique, absorbing the soul ring of this human-faced demon spider will be no problem at all. I can assure you of that."
"No, I believe you."
Meng Yiran shook her head, bit her lip lightly, and gazed at Ye Qifeng with her beautiful eyes:
"What I meant was, you don't need to be so polite and keep calling me Miss Meng. Just call me by my name, Yiran."
