Chapter 250 Accelerated Growth of Soul Power
Time flies, and half an hour has passed in no time.
Ye Qifeng slowly walked out of the Blue Electric Restaurant, a smile on his face, and glanced back at a window on the third floor of the restaurant.
The windowpane had a slightly greenish tint, was crystal clear, and resembled pure, flawless glass, reflecting the somewhat gloomy sky.
Although he couldn't see the room inside the window, Ye Qifeng could clearly sense that there was a pair of eyes watching him.
The source of the gaze is self-evident.
Ye Qifeng smiled faintly, turned his head away, and continued his tour without looking any further.
His original plan for today was simply to confirm the location of Dugu Bo's residence, make preparations for the future, and experience the luxury of the southern city.
But to everyone's surprise, Yu Luomian actually came to her door.
It can be said that the harvest this time was unexpectedly large.
In the shadows somewhere nearby.
A ghostly figure dressed in black robes stood among them, its gaze also fixed on the windows of the third floor of the restaurant.
Beneath his robe and hat, his eyes were clear and filled with surprise.
Of the conversations between Saint Ziye Qifeng and Yu Luomian, only Gui Mei knew the details.
"As expected, following His Highness the Holy Son brings many surprises."
"This matter should be informed to His Holiness the Pope as soon as possible. It would be of great benefit to the Spirit Hall, and we should make arrangements as soon as possible," Ghost thought to himself.
A moment later, he withdrew his gaze, his figure transformed into a wisp of mist, disappeared from the shadows, and chased after Ye Qifeng in the direction he had gone.
In a private room on the third floor of the Lan Dian Restaurant.
Yu Luomian stood outside the French windows with her hands behind her back, watching the departing figure of the young man with a complex expression.
"Since we've made up our minds, there's no turning back; we can only move forward."
After a moment, he sighed and muttered to himself.
He reached some kind of cooperation, or rather, deal, with Ye Qifeng. The specifics were known only to them and the three ghosts lurking in the shadows.
"Brother, I didn't want to do this either, but... you forced me to, so don't blame me."
As if recalling something, Yu Luomian's face suddenly twisted, her expression turning gloomy and filled with hatred.
A long time has passed.
Yu Luomian regained her composure, turned around, and looked at the coffee table.
There, a token lay quietly.
The token is entirely silver, about half the size of a palm, and its edges are inlaid with various exquisite gemstones, giving it an exceptionally refined appearance.
Most importantly, the token is engraved with six shimmering symbols: a chrysanthemum, a ghostly figure, a crown, a hammer, a sword, and a dragon-like creature.
The six patterns together form a unique logo, which is the symbol of the Spirit Hall.
Looking at the dragon pattern among the six shimmering designs, Yu Luomian's expression became even more complicated.
He walked over, bent down to pick up the token, held it in his palm, and weighed it in his hand; it was quite heavy.
As the vice sect leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, he was well-informed and immediately recognized that the token was made primarily of rare deep-sea silver.
Flipping it over casually, the words "Holy Son" on it revealed the identity this token represented: the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.
Yes, this token is indeed Ye Qifeng's Holy Son Token.
The reason Ye Qifeng left this token, besides the cooperation and transaction with Yu Luomian, was mainly because of Liu Erlong.
This Holy Son Token was originally intended for Liu Erlong.
However, Ye Qifeng thought again that although Liu Erlong had a fiery temper and was quite intelligent, she lacked emotional intelligence. In essence, she was a somewhat naive and simple-minded woman, especially when it came to matters of the heart, where she was prone to losing her mind and being deceived.
If one day in the future she were to meet that useless master she had been longing for again, she might be deceived by his sweet talk once more.
If the Holy Son's Token were in Liu Erlong's hands, and if the useless master found out about it and tricked him into using it to flaunt his power and swindle people, Ye Qifeng would feel uncomfortable and disgusted.
After all, the Waste Master likes to do this kind of thing.
Therefore, in order to prevent such a thing from happening, Ye Qifeng temporarily entrusted the Holy Son Token to Yu Luomian for safekeeping.
Yu Luomian was, after all, Liu Erlong's father. In his discussions with Ye Qifeng, he specifically mentioned that the Spirit Hall should guarantee Liu Erlong's safety and provide protection in critical moments, and included this in the content of cooperation and transactions with the Spirit Hall.
Ye Qifeng readily agreed.
Of course, even if Yu Luomian hadn't said anything, he would still have protected Liu Erlong, after all, she was the sister he had recognized.
It was precisely because he saw that Yu Luomian genuinely loved and cared for Liu Erlong that Ye Qifeng felt at ease placing the Holy Son Token with Yu Luomian.
In addition, placing the Holy Son's Token with Yu Luomian is also to facilitate subsequent contact with personnel from the Spirit Hall, and to carry out cooperation and transactions in the name of the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, which is naturally much more convenient.
Yu Luomian provided the Spirit Hall with intelligence on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, while the Spirit Hall acted as his backing and support force, helping him ascend to the position of clan leader.
This is the content of the agreement discussed between Ye Qifeng and Yu Luomian.
As for what would happen after the cooperation and deal were reached, Ye Qifeng and Yu Luomian did not discuss the specifics, but they both knew the answer.
In the end, there is only one outcome.
That is.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan submitted to the Spirit Hall.
…………
The sky was overcast and gloomy today.
The air was slightly cool and damp, but it wasn't raining.
With nothing to do for the time being, Ye Qifeng spent a day strolling around the bustling and luxurious southern part of Tiandou City, experiencing many of the city's unique delicacies.
Because the southern part of the city was inhabited by high-ranking officials and wealthy people, many rare and precious foods could be found there.
For example, the meat of spirit beasts, which ordinary people and commoner spirit masters cannot afford, can be found in Nancheng as long as it is a type of spirit beast that can be served on the table.
It's worth mentioning that there's a trading market in the South City that specializes in selling edible soul beasts.
Filled with curiosity, Ye Qifeng also went to browse around and bought more than ten Soft Bone Rabbits, which he stored in his amethyst crystal ring.
He hadn't forgotten his promise to Liu Erlong; he would personally teach her the more than ten rabbit cooking methods he knew, hoping to make her love eating rabbit.
To avoid her getting too close to that mischievous rabbit in the future.
It was evening.
Ye Qifeng returned to his home in Xicheng.
As he opened the iron gate and entered, a clear and cheerful voice immediately rang out from inside the house.
But Liu Erlong returned earlier than him.
Today, Liu Erlong ran back and forth in Tiandou City, looking at several sites, but unfortunately none of them were suitable for building or converting into a Soul Master Academy. As for academies that were to be sold or transferred, there was not a single piece of news about them.
However, Liu Erlong was not discouraged by the difficulty in finding a suitable location.
After all, creating an advanced Soul Master Academy is no simple matter and cannot be accomplished overnight. She was mentally prepared for a long search.
Finding a suitable site is crucial; it must be appropriate and meet the criteria for transformation into a simulated environment.
After looking at several venues, and seeing that it was getting late, Liu Erlong thought of Ye Qifeng at home and decided to head straight home, buying some groceries along the way.
She had barely stepped inside when Ye Qifeng followed her back.
The two then had dinner together.
Tonight's meal was once again cooked by Liu Erlong himself.
Dinner took about half an hour to eat.
During the conversation, the two exchanged information about what they had seen and heard that day. Of course, Liu Erlong did most of the talking, while Ye Qifeng listened attentively, occasionally chiming in and offering his own opinions.
Liu Erlong found that when facing Ye Qifeng, she couldn't help but talk too much. Once she started talking, she couldn't stop. She could talk about anything and chat about anything.
However, she thought it was a good thing.
In short, she was very happy, happier than ever before.
She felt in her heart that this was the feeling she wanted—the feeling of deep sibling affection.
After dinner, once Liu Erlong had finished washing the dishes, Ye Qifeng chatted with her for over an hour.
Afterwards, the two took separate showers and went back to their rooms to cultivate and rest.
The next two days.
The rain drizzled almost continuously.
Seeing this, Ye Qifeng and Liu Erlong stayed at home and did not go out.
We'll deal with other things after the rain stops.
A lone man and a lone woman living under the same roof
Of course, nothing indescribable happened.
Entertainment activities are scarce in Douluo Continent. The two of them stayed at home, and most of the time, they did nothing but cultivate.
Fortunately, Ye Qifeng had bought more than a dozen soft-boned rabbits in advance, so he took this opportunity to teach Liu Erlong several ways to cook rabbits.
To be honest, Liu Erlong has a really good learning ability. After Ye Qifeng demonstrated it once or twice, she was able to grasp the techniques and become proficient in it.
Moreover, the final product tasted quite good, comparable to Ye Qifeng's cooking skills.
So for the past two days, their diet has mainly consisted of soft-boned rabbit.
Given Liu Erlong's extraordinary appetite, more than half of the soft-boned rabbits she cooked ended up in her stomach.
In the world of soul beasts, the Soft Bone Rabbit is only one of the lowest-ranking soul beasts in terms of bloodline, but it is still a creature that can cultivate, and its flesh and blood contain residual blood and soul power.
Even Soul Masters, whose physiques are much stronger than ordinary people, will feel bloated if they eat too much.
The blood and soul power contained in the flesh of soul beasts need to be refined and absorbed in a timely manner.
Because Liu Erlong always ate a bit too much, she had to spend some time refining and absorbing the nutrients after each meal, which resulted in a slight increase in her soul power.
It's not much, but it's better than nothing.
In addition, Liu Erlong discovered something.
Her cultivation speed, which had remained largely unchanged for over a decade and was even somewhat slow, suddenly accelerated recently for some unknown reason.
When meditating to cultivate soul power, I did not feel the same difficulty as before; on the contrary, it was incredibly smooth.
The rate at which his soul power was increasing was several times greater than before.
Once you start cultivating, you progress almost a thousand miles a day.
Not long after, her soul power smoothly broke through to level 76 without any delay.
In her boudoir.
Liu Erlong was wearing a light green silk nightgown.
The pajamas are made of a lightweight, high-quality material that is soft, silky, and exceptionally comfortable to wear.
Needless to say, this set of pajamas was one of the clothes Ye Qifeng bought for her.
Liu Erlong lay on the bed, thinking about it over and over, but he was still a little confused and didn't know why this change had happened.
I tossed and turned in bed for ages, but just couldn't fall asleep.
She felt she wouldn't be able to sleep until she figured this out.
"Why don't we ask Xiaofeng?"
Liu Erlong suddenly got up.
"Yes, go ask Xiao Feng. His understanding of martial spirits and cultivation is unique and seems to be no less than Xiao Feng's. He might know why."
After thinking about it, Liu Erlong decided to go and ask Ye Qifeng.
In the past few days, she had spent time with Ye Qifeng day and night. Through their conversations, she had learned that Ye Qifeng's knowledge of martial spirits was incredibly extensive. It seemed that there was nothing about martial spirits and cultivation that he didn't understand.
In the past few days, she had many questions about martial spirits and cultivation, which were all raised during their conversations and answered by Ye Qifeng.
Without thinking twice, I just got to work.
Liu Erlong got out of bed without changing her clothes, forgetting that she wasn't even wearing an undergarment. She was only wearing a thin nightgown, slipped on her slippers, opened the door, and went out.
Turning around, he arrived at the door of Ye Qifeng next door.
"Xiao Feng, are you asleep?"
Liu Erlong slightly bent her jade-like fingers, knocked on the door, and called out softly.
"Not yet. What's wrong?"
Ye Qifeng, who was preparing to sleep in the room, immediately got up from the bed.
"I have something I want to ask you." Hearing Ye Qifeng's voice and realizing he was still awake, Liu Erlong was delighted. "May I come in?"
"Sister, just come in, the door's unlocked," Ye Qifeng said towards the door.
With a click, the door opened.
Ye Qifeng looked over in confusion.
Suddenly, I caught my breath and almost had a nosebleed.
At this moment, Liu Erlong was wearing a set of pajamas, or more accurately, a onesie nightgown.
Importantly, the onesie nightgown seemed a bit too thin and transparent, revealing glimpses of fair skin underneath.
If that were all, then so be it.
Ye Qifeng didn't think it was anything special.
The key point is that Liu Erlong did not appear to be wearing any underwear on her upper body; the back of her pajamas was completely bare.
What's even more deadly is that Ye Qifeng has excellent eyesight and can clearly see the towering silhouette behind the pajamas.
Just like the moon I saw that night in the Sunset Forest, it was round, huge, and alluring.
Liu Erlong already had a voluptuous figure, with her breasts standing tall and firm, making her pajamas show off their amazing curves. Being completely naked, coupled with the silky softness of the pajamas, made the shape of her breasts fully exposed.
But she didn't seem to realize that anything was wrong.
She used to live alone, and every time she came home, she would habitually relax and unwind, so she didn't notice this.
Her upper body is so alluring, and her lower body is just as captivating.
All that could be seen was Liu Erlong's lower body. Her nightgown was extremely short, hanging down to the top of her thighs, just covering her round buttocks. Below that were two long, white, slender, and shapely legs, with delicate feet and a pair of light pink slippers.
Her stunning figure, paired with a semi-transparent light green nightgown and a picture-perfect face, made her look like a sexy stunner, extremely alluring and tempting to commit crimes.
"Second Sister, what do you want to ask?"
Ye Qifeng hurriedly composed himself, silently chanting "Amitabha Buddha" to suppress his restless heart. He slightly turned his head, shifting his gaze so that his eyes would not focus on Liu Erlong.
"Xiao Feng, I've discovered something strange."
Liu Erlong did not notice his strangeness and stepped directly into the room, sitting down by Ye Qifeng's bedside, bringing with her a fragrant breeze.
"Strange thing?"
Ye Qifeng was slightly surprised upon hearing this, and turned his head to look at her face, trying hard not to look down.
"I've noticed that my soul power cultivation speed has been somewhat abnormal lately; it seems to have increased significantly."
Liu Erlong quickly shared her confusion with Ye Qifeng.
"The speed of soul power has increased? That's good."
Ye Qifeng was taken aback.
"But this growth rate is too fast."
Liu Erlong gasped slightly in surprise.
"Oh? Very fast? Sister, tell me more." Ye Qifeng asked in surprise.
"Uh-huh."
Liu Erlong nodded quickly and explained, "This growth rate is not just a little bit, but several times faster than what I used to cultivate."
"Now, whenever I meditate, my soul power increases rapidly, so fast that it scares me a little."
"Over the past ten years or so, my cultivation speed has actually been quite slow, not only slow but also unchanging."
"In the last two days, for some reason, it has suddenly become faster. When I meditate and cultivate, my soul power increases very smoothly and quickly, without any sense of difficulty."
"I just casually cultivated for a bit, and my soul power, which had been stuck for a long time, suddenly broke through to level 76."
"I've thought about it for a long time, but I still don't know what the reason is. I've checked my body, but I haven't found anything wrong with it."
"Xiao Feng, do you think there might be any problems?"
