Chapter 322 Subduing the Ye Family of the Nine-Hearted Begonia
The moment the Immortal Jade Flower Begonia appeared in the air.
Ye Huiyin and Ye Lingling both trembled at the same time, feeling their Nine Heart Begonia Martial Souls suddenly pulsating violently.
The mother and daughter exchanged a glance, their blue eyes filled with shock and surprise.
"Xiao Feng, could you please give us this Jade Flower Begonia?"
After a moment, Ye Huiyin suppressed her excitement, looked at Ye Qifeng with her beautiful eyes, and asked urgently.
Seemingly worried that Ye Qifeng might disagree, she quickly added:
"Don't worry, we won't take it for free. We can exchange it with you, or you can make up your conditions."
"Exchange? Set conditions?"
Ye Qifeng was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised that Sister Ye was so honest.
However, it's understandable.
After all, removing the curse that imprisoned the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul and completely resolving the inheritance defect was more important to her than anything else.
Seeing Ye Qifeng's somewhat surprised expression, Ye Huiyin pursed her red lips and continued in a soft but extremely serious tone:
"If this item can truly and completely resolve the Nine Heart Begonia's martial soul defect, I will agree to whatever conditions you set, Xiao Feng."
"Even if you want the Ye family's wealth and assets, I can agree to it, even if it means losing everything."
"What?!"
Upon hearing that Ye Huiyin was willing to exchange the Ye family's wealth and assets for the immortal herbs in Ye Qifeng's possession, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, who were sitting next to her, looked at each other in astonishment.
"Mother."
Ye Lingling hurriedly grabbed her mother's arm and called out, wanting to say something, but Ye Huiyin gently shook her head to stop her.
"Sister Ye, you're too kind. I don't need the Ye family's wealth and businesses, and you don't need to go bankrupt."
Ye Qifeng paused for a moment, then smiled at her:
"This celestial medicinal herb, Jade Flower Heavenly Begonia, was originally intended for Sister Ye and Miss Lingling."
"However, to be honest with Sister Ye and Miss Lingling, I do have a little selfish motive, since Sister Ye brought up the issue of conditions..."
"Then I only have one request."
"What are your requirements?"
Ye Huiyin's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked.
"My demand is that, from this day forward, the Ye family of the Nine Heart Begonia shall be under the command of the Spirit Hall."
Ye Qifeng looked up at Ye Huiyin and Ye Lingling, and stated his conditions in a calm tone.
"You mean, you want our Ye family to submit to the Spirit Hall?"
Ye Lingling's beautiful eyebrows furrowed immediately, and she spoke before Ye Huiyin could.
"good."
Ye Qifeng nodded slightly, then changed the subject and said:
"Of course, all I need is for the Ye family to swear allegiance to the Spirit Hall and accept its summons and control."
"The Spirit Hall will not interfere with the Ye family's operations, nor will it require the Ye family to pay tribute. In return, it will provide the Ye family with support and protection."
"What does Sister Ye think?"
After saying that, Ye Qifeng turned his gaze to Ye Huiyin, who was standing next to Ye Lingling and whose aura had become sharp and dignified.
Although Ye Huiyin is a gentle and supportive healing-type Soul Master, she would abandon her tranquil and elegant temperament and become extremely serious and earnest when it came to matters related to the Ye family, exuding the dignified aura of the Ye family head.
"Okay, I can grant that request."
After pondering in silence for a long time, Ye Huiyin finally nodded and agreed to let the Ye family submit to the Spirit Hall, but she also put forward her own ideas:
"However, we can only secretly swear allegiance to the Spirit Hall and cannot announce this news to the outside world."
"After all, the foundation of our Ye family is in the Heaven Dou Empire, which is surrounded by wolves. Once those forces find out that the Ye family has sided with the Spirit Hall, it will easily arouse hostility and attack."
"If that's the case, then the Ye family's situation in the Heaven Dou Empire will be extremely difficult."
"No problem, I understand the Ye family's situation. Just do as you say, Sister Ye."
After only a moment's thought, Ye Qifeng agreed:
"I will inform His Holiness the Pope of this matter. The Spirit Hall will send someone to discuss this with the Ye family. At that time, I will trouble Sister Ye to receive them."
"Okay, no problem."
Ye Huiyin nodded gently.
"Now that the matter has been settled, the next step is to address the flaws in the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul."
Ye Qifeng looked at Ye Huiyin and her daughter Ye Lingling, and said gently:
"Because I only have one Jade Flower Heavenly Begonia, a celestial herb, I can only remove the curse and resolve the martial soul defect for one person at the moment."
"Sister Ye, Miss Lingling, which of you will take this divine herb?"
"Mother, you should take this precious medicinal herb."
Upon hearing the question, Ye Lingling couldn't help but speak up.
"No, Lingling, it's better if you take it."
However, Ye Huiyin shook her head at her, indicating her refusal.
"But, Mother."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling immediately became anxious.
"Lingling, listen to me. Your talent and aptitude are better than your mother's. You need this celestial herb more than I do."
At this moment, Ye Huiyin's sharp and imposing aura had subsided, and she had regained her serene and elegant demeanor. Her eyes softened, and she looked at her daughter with doting affection, speaking gently to her:
"My mother is old and her growth potential is limited; she has almost reached the end of her life. You, on the other hand, are young and have unlimited potential for the future. Therefore, you are more suitable than me to take this divine herb."
"Besides, the Ye family's Nine Hearts Begonia Martial Soul still needs you to pass it down. Do you really want me to inherit it?"
"I can't just watch you all alone. It's time to change your strange habit of always resisting contact with the opposite sex. Taking the immortal herbs to remove the curse and fix the flaws in your martial soul is a good opportunity."
Ye Huiyin didn't say the last few words aloud, but added them in her mind.
This is due to the defects in the Ye family's Nine Heart Begonia martial soul inheritance.
When his daughter Ye Lingling was six years old, her grandfather sacrificed himself so that she could awaken the Nine Heart Begonia, which was a great blow to her.
Later, after learning about the flaws in the inheritance of the family's martial spirit.
As a result, Ye Lingling, the daughter, developed a rebellious attitude towards fate and did not want to interact with others, especially men. She became taciturn, withdrawn, and lonely.
To avoid attracting attention, she, who possesses striking beauty, deliberately veiled herself in black to conceal her appearance. She even developed a habit of always standing in the darkest corners.
All of these things made Ye Huiyin very worried.
There's an opportunity now that could change my daughter's personality, so I can't miss it.
"Mother, you're not old at all. You look like you're only in your early twenties."
Ye Lingling muttered to herself:
"It's actually fine for you, Mother, to inherit the Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul. I can even accept it if you find me a stepfather. After all, Father has been dead for many years, and I don't even remember what he looked like."
Ye Lingling appears aloof on the surface, but she is actually very active inside. Of course, it's difficult for most people to figure out what she's thinking.
"Lingling, listen to your mother. You will take this divine herb. It's settled then."
Finally, Ye Huiyin waved her hand and said in an unquestionable manner.
"Okay, fine."
Under the black veil, Ye Lingling pouted her little lips somewhat reluctantly.
Ye Qifeng, who had been listening to the mother and daughter's conversation, thought for a moment and smiled at Ye Lingling:
"Miss Lingling, just as Sister Ye said, with your talent, you are indeed more suitable to take the Jade Flower Begonia. You don't need to refuse."
"Also, you don't need to worry about Sister Ye. As I just said, there is only one Jade Flower Begonia at the moment, which does not mean there won't be any in the future."
"I have some seeds of the Jade Flower Begonia here, and it's possible that they can be cultivated again in the future."
"I promise you, if I ever cultivate a Jade Flower Heavenly Begonia in the future, I will definitely give it to Sister Ye to consume."
After all, he held a new world in his hands, and the yin and yang energies within it were indeed extremely suitable for cultivating plants.
As for whether or not it is possible to cultivate celestial-grade medicinal herbs, it depends on the growth of the Yin-Yang Space. Given the current state of the Yin-Yang Space, it seems that it is not yet possible to do so.
However, Ye Qifeng believes that as the Yin-Yang Space grows, it will definitely be able to achieve this in the future.
"real?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling instantly raised her bright, watery eyes and let out a clear, melodious cry.
"Of course it's true."
Ye Qifeng smiled and nodded affirmatively at her.
"So, Miss Lingling, you can rest assured and take this divine herb in a moment."
As he spoke, he handed the jade-flowered begonia to Ye Lingling.
"Okay, thank you."
Holding the jade-like begonia in her hands, Ye Lingling took a deep look at Ye Qifeng with a complex expression, but still politely thanked him.
"Thank you, Holy Son."
Ye Huiyin, standing beside him, slightly bent her body and gave Ye Qifeng a graceful bow, her demeanor dignified and her expression solemn.
At this moment, she corrected her position and regarded herself as Ye Qifeng's subordinate.
"Sister Ye, Miss Lingling, from now on we're all family, no need to be so polite with me."
Ye Qifeng quickly waved his hand, "Sister Ye, please call me Xiaofeng as before. It feels strange and I'm not used to you calling me Holy Son."
"it is good."
Ye Huiyin smiled sweetly.
"Senior, please prepare a quiet room."
Then, Ye Qifeng turned around, looked at Dugu Bo beside him, and made a request.
"No problem, please follow me."
Dugu Bo laughed heartily.
Not long after.
Under Dugu Bo's leadership.
The group eventually arrived at a quiet room.
"This is the meditation room where I usually cultivate. The walls are made of special soundproofing stones, which can block out all external sounds. It is quiet enough here and I will not be disturbed by outside noise."
Dugu Bo introduced in a hoarse voice, looking at Ye Lingling:
"Little girl Lingling, you can stay here and take the divine herbs with peace of mind."
"Thank you, senior."
Ye Lingling thanked her.
Then Dugu Bo turned and left the quiet room. He originally wanted to call his granddaughter Dugu Yan to go out with him, but when he saw that his granddaughter's eyes were almost glued to Ye Qifeng, he immediately gave up.
So Dugu Yan stayed in the quiet room.
Ye Qifeng wanted to teach Ye Lingling how to take the elixir, and also to watch over her to prevent any accidents. He also wanted to help her absorb the medicinal power faster, so he naturally had to leave it behind.
As Ye Lingling's mother, Ye Huiyin was worried about her daughter's condition and naturally wouldn't leave the quiet room.
And so.
Only the master, Dugu Bo, left the quiet room, while the rest of the people stayed behind.
After Dugu Bo left, the stone door closed, and the quiet room returned to silence.
Ye Lingling cast her expectant gaze at Ye Qifeng.
"Then let's begin."
Ye Qifeng nodded to her and explained how to take the Jade Flower Begonia:
"The method of consuming Jade Flower Begonia is to first inhale the stamens, then consume the petals, and then calm the mind and meditate to absorb and refine the medicinal power."
He sat cross-legged on the couch in the quiet room.
Ye Lingling glanced at Ye Qifeng furtively, remained silent for a second, and finally gritted her teeth and reached out to remove the black veil covering her face.
In an instant.
A delicate face was exposed to the air.
Ye Lingling's appearance is seven parts similar to her mother Ye Huiyin, with a gentle and warm look that is quite different from her cold and lonely demeanor.
Her face, like Ye Huiyin's, was a delicate oval face, but she lacked Ye Huiyin's intellect and maturity, possessing instead a youthful and charming beauty.
However, the feeling it gives is just as stunning.
"So, Miss Lingling's face beneath the black veil is truly breathtakingly beautiful, a beauty that could topple kingdoms. Why does she keep her face hidden behind a black veil?"
Looking at Ye Lingling's beautiful and delicate face, Ye Qifeng couldn't help but sigh.
Ye Lingling remained silent, but her face visibly flushed red.
Dugu Yan, whose eyes and heart were completely occupied by Ye Qifeng, couldn't help but feel a little jealous when she heard him praising Ye Lingling. She subconsciously pouted her lips.
As Ye Lingling's best friend, Dugu Yan had naturally seen Ye Lingling's true appearance under the black veil, and it was unbelievably beautiful, even she herself felt somewhat inferior.
Ye Huiyin glanced at Ye Qifeng, who was stunned by her beauty, and felt happy and proud for her daughter Ye Lingling.
Looking again at her daughter, who had suddenly blushed, she had a sudden thought and couldn't help but feel an urge to bring the two of them together.
But then she thought of her good friend Liu Erlong, and suddenly felt embarrassed. She quickly coughed twice to suppress the thoughts that were rising in her mind, and gently reminded her daughter Ye Lingling:
"Ahem, Lingling, follow Xiaofeng's advice and quickly take the divine herbs."
"Um."
Ye Lingling obediently nodded.
Immediately afterward, disregarding her embarrassment, she followed the instructions, picked up the jade-like begonia in her hand, first sucked on the stamen, then plucked the petals, put them in her mouth, chewed and swallowed them, and then began to meditate and cultivate, absorbing and refining the medicinal power.
Ye Qifeng shook his head slightly, withdrawing his gaze from Ye Lingling's face. Although he was somewhat curious, it would be impolite to look any longer.
He immediately focused his attention on Ye Lingling taking the elixir.
