Faced with Xiao Lan's question, Dugu Yan shook her head.
She hadn't suddenly grown this weight; she'd long been accustomed to it during her growth.
"Xiao Lan... what happened just now?"
"Xiao Lan will tell her sister later, let's deal with brother first!"
"Okay!"
Looking at the naked Ye Qiu, Dugu Yan blushed, inwardly cursing.
Seeing Xiao Lan's unconcerned expression, she cursed him again.
"What a beast!"
The two of them carried Ye Qiu back to the room, and Xiao Lan even volunteered to take care of him, wiping him down and changing his clothes
. "Xiao Lan... are you really siblings?" Dugu Yan looked at her strangely.
"Yes!" Xiao Lan nodded blankly, without hesitation.
"Then... how could you do that?"
Dugu Yan frowned, pointing back and forth between Ye Qiu and Xiao Lan with a hint of panic.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"It's...it's about kissing and sleeping together!" Dugu Yan's face showed embarrassment.
Xiao Lan then realized what Sister Yan meant.
She quickly waved her hands to explain,
"It's not what Sister Yan thinks, my brother and I aren't blood siblings."
"Not blood siblings? Whew." Hearing this, Dugu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this lecherous man wasn't quite beastly.
'But...but Xiao Lan doesn't want to be just a simple little sister!'
Xiao Lan lowered her head by the bed, calculating her own plans, her eyes filled with resentment as she looked at Ye Qiu.
...
As night fell, Ye Qiu was still lying in bed.
During this time, Dugu Bo, who had been out, returned. After learning about this, he specially checked Ye Qiu and found nothing unusual before he was relieved.
Xiao Lan lay beside him, close to his chest, inhaling Ye Qiu's scent. She slept much more soundly, even unconsciously turning over.
In his dream, Ye Qiu seemed to be dreaming of something; his brows furrowed slightly, and a few beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
In his dream, a voluptuous woman with red and blue eyes slowly walked towards him, pinching his chin.
Before she could make a move, he felt short of breath.
"Huff." Ye Qiu suddenly opened his eyes, breathing heavily.
He glanced around blankly, only then realizing he was in the wooden house.
Helplessly looking at the familiar color pressing down on him, a head of blue hair spread across Ye Qiu's chest.
It was Xiao Lan, that little girl. It had been a long time since they had rested together; he wasn't used to being pressed down by her.
He pinched her smooth little face, and a little drool suddenly spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"Hehe."
He chuckled softly, then closed his eyes again, recalling what had happened earlier.
The red and blue spheres, the ice and fire dragon souls, the mutation of the life seed within his body, and finally, the woman who appeared.
"Click!" The door opened, and Dugu Yan walked in.
"Little Blue, it's time to go back to sleep! Don't worry, Ye Qiu will be fine!"
Ye Qiu turned his head and looked at the door, and Dugu Yan noticed his gaze.
"Hmm? When did you wake up?"
"Hehe... just now, just now!"
Ye Qiu chuckled twice, and Little Blue on his body also moved.
"Hmm?" His voice was a little groggy, and he rubbed his eyes with his little hands, his hazy eyes still covered with a layer of water.
"Sister Yan Yan! Brother! You're finally awake~"
Before he could finish speaking, he rubbed against Ye Qiu.
"Alright, alright, get up quickly, I have something to ask you."
After
Ye Qiu finished speaking, his old face suddenly turned red, and his stomach protested.
"Is brother hungry? Sister Yan Yan left you some food! Hehe." She obediently climbed off him.
"Okay, I'll go get it now." Ignoring Ye Qiu's gaze, Dugu Yan immediately went outside.
A short while later, several dishes Ye Qiu liked were placed on the table, still warm.
"Thank you, Miss Dugu!"
"It's nothing, Xiao Lan just asked me to help."
"No way! You were the one who wanted to save it, and you even told Xiao Lan to eat less during the meal... Ugh!"
"Xiao Lan!" Dugu Yan scolded, angrily covering Xiao Lan's mouth.
"You—you don't listen to her nonsense! It was all Grandpa's idea!" Looking at Ye Qiu, her eyes darted away, and she shifted the blame to Dugu Bo.
Xiao Lan struggled, trying to explain, but Dugu Yan held her firmly.
"Hmm, I understand!" Seeing this, Ye Qiu knew perfectly well, but still nodded.
"Hmph!" Hearing his answer, Dugu Yan felt a pang of resentment, snorted coldly, and released Xiao Lan.
Afraid she'd say anything more, Dugu Yan served her some rice. "If Xiao Lan isn't full, then eat some with us!"
"Okay, okay! Sister, too!" Tempted by the delicious food, Xiao Lan forgot all about her little problem.
"Xiao Lan, tell your brother what happened today!"
"Ugh..." Her mouth was stuffed with rice, leaving no room to answer Ye Qiu.
...
Afterwards, Xiao Lan told Ye Qiu everything she knew.
However, there were some things she wasn't entirely clear about; the information the Ice and Fire Dragon King left her was all within the scope of what would affect her normal growth.
"That woman was you!?" Hearing Xiao Lan's story, Ye Qiu stared at her in shock, looking
her up and down .
"Yes! How about it? Isn't Xiao Lan prettier than Sister Rongrong and the others now that she's grown up!"
Xiao Lan looked at Ye Qiu proudly; she had previously regretted that Ye Qiu hadn't seen her grow up!
'Them?' Dugu Yan was startled, a cold glint in her eyes as she glanced at Ye Qiu.
I never expected that Ning Rongrong was just one of them. What a lecherous scoundrel!
"Alright, stop fooling around. Go to sleep with Miss Dugu after you finish eating!" Ye Qiu
stopped her playful antics and tapped her forehead in annoyance.
It was just a trial card, what was there to be so proud of!
Ye Qiu continued to ask some questions.
Not long after, Xiao Lan left with Dugu Yan.
"Miss Dugu!"
Ye Qiu called out to her as she left, and Dugu Yan turned around.
"What is it?"
"Thank you!" Ye Qiu said, taking out a small jar of pills and placing it in her hand. "You used your martial soul today, so I think you won't have enough medicine this month."
"Hmm!" Dugu Yan nodded coldly and turned to leave.
Watching her back, Ye Qiu felt somewhat helpless. How was he supposed to resolve this inexplicable engagement? Just dealing with Ning Rongrong and the others was enough to give him a headache.
Without thinking any further, Ye Qiu returned to his room and began to carefully examine his body.
From Xiao Lan, Ye Qiu learned that she had now merged with that mysterious seed.
Moreover, the Blue Silver Emperor seems to have evolved, becoming a god-level martial soul!
Extending his palm, the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul appeared, surrounded by two purple soul rings. Its potential had visibly increased significantly.
Although most of the Ice and Fire Dragon King's sacrifice was absorbed by the seed, failing to raise its own soul power level,
the Blue Silver Emperor's appearance had drastically changed.
It still retained its blue body, with golden patterns in the center.

The difference lies in the dividing line:
the left side radiates a red halo, scorching with heat;
the right side radiates an icy blue halo, chilling with cold!
It possesses both ice and fire attributes!
Its soul skills have also changed.
The first soul skill, Endless Life!
The interplay of ice and fire, yin and yang, greatly enhances its healing ability, even imbuing it with the characteristics of the Yin-Yang Well, promoting the growth of soul beasts.
The second soul skill, Blue Silver Fragrance!
Originally a simple support soul skill, it has become a skill that can injure.
The scent inhaled by enemies will burn or freeze their hearts and lungs.
The drawback is that it cannot be freely controlled; it's an indiscriminate attack, unsuitable for large-scale battles.
Furthermore, according to Xiao Lan, her growth is closely related to the growth of that seed.
The resources required have increased further.
Ye Qiu is somewhat worried about this; how much the seed, which requires the Ice and Fire Dragon King to sacrifice his remnant soul to activate, can actually consume is truly uncertain!
"Sigh!" Ye Qiu sighed softly. If all else failed, he would have to allocate less soul power to Xiao Lan later.
As for Ye Qiu's own body, it had also undergone significant changes.
First, his physical strength had become much stronger after being tempered by both ice and fire. His
soul power, too, had become more solid and refined after being tempered by ice and fire.
The internal hidden dangers he had previously thought of due to the rapid increase in soul power had been completely eliminated.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, introspectively examining the small ice and fire Yin-Yang eye within his body, Ye Qiu had some new ideas.
"Perhaps, my self-created soul skill has a future!"
He stretched out his hand and drew lines in the air, leaving behind strands of soul power that lingered for a long time.
"Great!" Ye Qiu was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that after refining his soul power, the problem of how to maintain it after releasing it would also be solved!
"Then like this..."
Ye Qiu activated his Sharingan, and in the center of the familiar six-pointed star was a small, purple three-leaf windmill.
He stared intently at the changes in the soul power in his hand, not daring to relax for a moment.
Blue soul power emanated from his fingertips, slowly solidifying and expanding until it became a walnut-sized ball of soul power.
Ye Qiu then tried to control it, making it slowly rotate. Once stable, he pressed it down onto the bed.
*Bang!* He was bounced back as soon as he got close.
"Damn it!" Splinters of wood hit his face, stinging, and Ye Qiu couldn't help but curse.
...
The night passed quickly!
Early the next morning, Ye Qiu had
just stepped out when Dugu Bo's cursing voice came from behind him.
"Kid, what were you messing around with last night? You kept me awake all night!"
Seeing Dugu Bo's glaring face, Ye Qiu was about to apologize when
the old man started his unrestrained rant again.
"If you're really lonely, you should get back together with my Yan Yan sooner... Ouch! Hiss!"
Dugu Bo felt a sharp pain and gasped.
"Grandpa! Go eat your food." Dugu Yan glared at him, reaching out and pulling out a few strands of his beard.
"Haha. Serves you right!"
Hearing Xiao Lan's gloating voice, Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at her, feeling inexplicably disappointed in Xiao Lan's attitude.
"This old thing. Making trouble for herself first thing in the morning!" Ye Qiu muttered to himself.
"Brother! Are your eyes better?" Xiao Lan ran over excitedly, happily taking his hand.
"Yes! They're better now!" Ye Qiu nodded, affectionately patting her hair.
After absorbing the Autumn Water Dew, the Purple Demon Eye and Kaleidoscope of the Mustard Seed Realm had completely merged, which could be considered a different kind of Eternal Kaleidoscope.
At least he didn't have to worry about going blind anymore, and his mental strength had also increased significantly, making it difficult for anyone below the Soul King level to find an opponent.
He pulled Xiao Lan to sit down in the wooden shed.
"Kid, now that your eyes have recovered, I'll leave my Yan Yan to you!"
"Ahem... Yan Yan, I meant he should take you to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy! His soul skill is much faster than Grandpa's, and it'll be much more convenient."
Seeing Dugu Yan's gaze sweep over him, Dugu Bo panicked and quickly explained to avoid losing more hairs.
He just wanted the two young people to get to know each other better, so that his future work would be less of a hindrance.
"If Miss Dugu doesn't mind, I certainly have no problem!" Ye Qiu smiled. Traveling with divine power was indeed very fast, it wouldn't take much time.
"Hmph! Then thank you!"
*Snap!* As she spoke, Dugu Yan placed a dish in front of Ye Qiu, his favorite.
"Brother, brother! You have to take Xiao Lan to play with Sister Rong Rong too! It's a bit boring here." Xiao Lan bit her chopsticks and gently wiggled her toes.
Seemingly afraid that Ye Qiu would refuse, she added.
"Besides, my brother promised to go back to see Rongrong."
This place is so small, she's already tired of it, spending all her time in that hot pot restaurant.
So boring!
"Don't worry, I'll take you back in a few days."
*Snap!*
Before Ye Qiu could finish speaking, the dishes in front of her were moved again.
Xiao Lan and Ye Qiu looked towards Dugu Yan, who had already lowered her head and started eating slowly.
"..." Dugu Bo frowned.
'Has this kid hooked up with another woman? It seems Yan Yan's anger before was related to that Rongrong!'
'I should find a chance to ask Yan Yan privately!'
Dugu Bo wanted to remind Ye Qiu about the engagement, but fearing he'd damage his beard again, he gave up.
'Speaking of which, why does that name sound familiar?'
Suppressing his thoughts, he was determined to have this grandson-in-law.
"Hey kid, what were you tinkering with last night?"
"I tried it out last night, and I've already made some initial progress with my self-created soul skill!"
Ye Qiu put down what he was holding.
"Oh? So fast! Let me see!"
Hearing this, Dugu Yan looked up at Ye Qiu.
"Sure!"
Ye Qiu nodded.
Hearing this, Dugu Yan looked up at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu extended his index finger, pointing it at the wooden stake beside him. A blue halo appeared at his fingertip, and a ball of light the size of a peanut shot out.
Bang! It hit the wood, leaving a small dent half an inch deep.
"This won't do!" Dugu Bo only glanced at it before shaking his head. "But this is still just the beginning."
"Hmm!" Ye Qiu nodded. "The power is still too weak right now; it needs a lot of improvement."
"By the way, Soul Masters should prioritize cultivation. Don't spend too much time on these things, lest you hinder your cultivation!"
"Don't worry, Senior, I understand that!"
Ye Qiu deeply agreed with this point. The execution of any Soul Skill still requires sufficient Soul Power as a foundation.
"Alright, let's eat! Yanyan has to go to training today, could you take her there for me later?"
