Ah Yin looked fresh and beautiful, appearing like a brand new person who had just stepped into the world. Her skin was soft and pink, and her presence felt entirely unopened and pure.
Su Yan truly appreciated this beautiful scenery. In a sense, this was his graduation project, the result of all his hard work and power.
Ah Yin's revival this time was heavily influenced by the unique energy Su Yan provided, which had a noticeable effect on her physical form. Because of his power, she had even gained a little weight, making her look healthier and more vibrant than ever before.
Ah Yin was not stingy with her new form. She stretched her arms out in the sun, allowing the warm light to wash over her while Su Yan admired her recovery. After a long while, she finally recovered from the joyful comfort of her rebirth. Then, she looked around and realized her situation. She was completely stunned and did not know what to say.
Let us talk about two things at once. While Su Yan was with Ah Yin, Zhao Wuji had already led the Shrek group into a battle with a Spirit Beast known as the Phoenix Tail Cockscomb Snake. During the fight, the figure of a Little Monkey also appeared. However, it only showed itself for a moment.
After its Spirit Ring retracted following the use of its Spirit Ability, it vanished back into the woods. The group and the Phoenix Tail Cockscomb Snake fought back and forth for several minutes. In the end, Zhao Wuji intervened to finish the struggle.
He knocked the Phoenix Tail Cockscomb Snake unconscious with a quick flick of his finger to its head.
Zhao Wuji pulled a short blade from his waist and handed it to Oscar. He looked at the boy and said, "Night brings many dreams, so you need to hurry.
Quickly kill it and absorb the Spirit Ring! We are quite lucky this time. We encountered a suitable Spirit Beast right after entering the forest. It is just a bit strange. I wonder where that kid Su Yan ran off to."
Oscar excitedly took the short blade. He was very happy because his Third Spirit Skill was finally within reach. He raised the knife to finish the snake, but a voice stopped him.
"Stop," a hoarse voice suddenly interrupted.
An old woman known as Snake Granny emerged from the trees. She was with her granddaughter, Meng Yiran. They came from the same direction the Phoenix Tail Cockscomb Snake had flown from earlier. Ning Rongrong and the other students showed strange looks in their eyes upon seeing this new group.
In the chat group, the messages began to fly.
The Nine Treasures Little Princess wrote, "Brother Su Yan, are you done yet? A little beauty has arrived. You should quickly come back and find us."
Bibi Dong joined in, saying, "This episode should be called The Story Su Yan and the Grass Had to Tell."
Liu Erlong laughed and added, "As expected of the Pope of the Spirit Hall, that description is truly brilliant!"
Tang Yuehua teased, "Su Yan, oh Su Yan, aren't you a bit too impatient?"
Ma Xiaotao commented, "I remember what you all said before about feeling out of place."
An orphan user replied, "I often feel I'm not perverse enough, and I feel out of place among all of you."
At this moment, back in the clearing, Ah Yin had already conjured a dress using her powers. Her delicate cheeks were turning pink and flushed. She looked like a shy maiden who was unsure of what to do next. Su Yan appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly, he could not forget the beautiful blue grassland he had just seen.
Suddenly, Ah Yin knelt on the ground. From this angle, Su Yan once again saw part of the beautiful scenery from his recent memories.
"Benefactor, please accept my bow," Ah Yin said softly.
"Eh?" Su Yan was stunned. He quickly stepped forward to help Ah Yin up. "Why are you kneeling for no reason? Get up quickly. Helping group members is my duty, so you don't need to do this."
As Su Yan helped her up, Ah Yin saw his handsome face so close to hers. Her face turned even redder than before.
"Benefactor has given me the grace of rebirth," she whispered. "You are like my reborn parents. If you do not mind, I am willing to serve you."
By the end of her sentence, her voice had become so soft that it was hard to hear. She suddenly remembered what people had said in the group chat. They said that a life-saving grace could not be repaid with words, but only by offering oneself in marriage. She wondered if this was an act of gratitude or if she was taking advantage of him. After all, Su Yan was so young and handsome.
Su Yan said with a smile, "Alright, from now on, just call me Su Yan. Do not bother with all this formality. How do you feel now?"
Ah Yin felt her body and replied, "My body has been recreated and revived. My spirit power might need time to cultivate and recover, but I am already very satisfied with this result."
"I see," Su Yan nodded. "Then let us hurry back to the group now. You should put on a veil first so people don't recognize you immediately."
Ah Yin obediently nodded. She conjured a blue veil from the leaves of her own spirit plant. She looked at Su Yan, seeming to want to speak but hesitating. Finally, she asked, "Benefactor, I mean Su Yan, when are we going to fight Tang Hao?"
Su Yan explained his plan. "Next, we will wait for the Titan Giant Ape to come for Xiao Wu. Tang Hao should chase after them when that happens. Then we will catch up and fight him. If we go directly to find him now, it is not far, but Tang San and the others will discover us. If Tang San sees how strong I am right now, he will be very, very sad!"
"Ah?" Ah Yin looked at Su Yan in confusion. "Why do we care about that person? He is just a scoundrel who took the place of my real son." She even thought about killing Tang San herself.
Su Yan smiled and shook his head. "Ah Yin, Tang San is my beloved friend and relative. He grew up with me. I need to slowly train his endurance before I can let him know the truth about everything!"
Ah Yin thought for a moment and asked, "Are you saying you want to slowly torment him?"
"Cough, cough," Su Yan said seriously. "What nonsense are you speaking? I already said Tang San is my beloved friend and brother. How could I harm him? Anyway, let us hurry back now. That little scoundrel is probably preparing to secretly show off while I am not around."
With those words, Su Yan reached out and wrapped an arm around Ah Yin's waist. He flew directly towards the direction where the Shrek group was waiting. Ah Yin's face instantly turned crimson again. Fortunately, she now had a veil to cover her face, but she was still incredibly shy inside.
Back at the clearing, after some negotiation, Snake Granny and Zhao Wuji failed to reach an agreement. They could not decide who should own the Phoenix Tail Cockscomb Snake. Because of this, they decided to follow the rules of the Spirit Master world.
Snake Granny spoke up. "Brother Zhao, since neither of us wants to give up this snake, let us follow the rules. How about we let these two children decide the ownership themselves?"
"Rules of the Spirit Master world?" Zhao Wuji raised an eyebrow. He was somewhat confused.
To be honest, the people of Shrek Academy were not known for following rules. They often did what they wanted based on personal preference. Zhao Wuji never considered himself a standard part of the Spirit Master world because he had such a notorious reputation. In the past, the Spirit Hall had even hunted him down because of his actions.
Snake Granny said indifferently, "Since both of us need this Spirit Ring, and both sides helped catch it, we should use strength to determine the winner. Let your student and my granddaughter compete. The loser will give up the snake."
The chat group continued to comment on the situation.
Dugu Yan wrote, "Su Yan, come quickly, they are about to fight."
Ma Xiaotao asked, "I still don't understand. Su Yan has many beautiful girls around him. Why would he go off with a plant?"
Bibi Dong replied, "Everyone was just joking. Did you actually take it seriously?"
Liu Erlong laughed, "I am going to die laughing. Xiaotao, you are truly a talent!"
Tang Yuehua added, "I am still very curious about what Su Yan did to save Ah Yin."
Ah Yin replied to them, "Su Yan saved me. He is my benefactor."
Dugu Yan asked, "But how exactly did he save you?"
Dugu Yan was full of curiosity. Zhu Zhuqing and the others were also confused. They wondered if Su Yan had gone to send Ah Yin back to the Blue Silver Grass territory.
In the forest, Zhao Wuji spread his hands and said, "I am afraid that won't do!"
Snake Granny's expression darkened. "Zhao Wuji, I have already made a concession. Are you bullying me because my husband is not here?"
Zhao Wuji gave an apologetic smile. "This student of mine is not a battle Spirit Master. He is a support system Spirit Master. In fact, he is a food system Spirit Master."
As soon as he said those words, Snake Granny was shocked. A food system Spirit Master reaching the level of a Spirit Elder at such a young age was very rare. Tang San was eager to try and was about to step forward to fight in place of Oscar. However, a voice suddenly came from the air above them.
