After a moment of surprise, Yu Tianqing carefully examined the girl in front of him.
What came into view was an exquisitely beautiful face.
Her golden hair cascaded down like a waterfall, shimmering softly in the sunlight.
Her skin was as white as snow, and her amber eyes were clear and bright, as if they could reflect people's hearts.
She has a high nose bridge, cherry-like lips, and when the corners of her mouth are slightly upturned, there is a hint of arrogance.
"Blonde hair? At this age?"
"And there's that faint, holy aura emanating from him."
"Could it be... that she is Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall?"
Yu Tianqing's heart stirred slightly. Judging from the girl's hair color, age, and temperament, he could almost confirm her identity.
It is highly likely that she is Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall.
After all, the Star Dou Great Forest is located at the border between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire.
The Spirit Hall is also located here.
Yu Tianqing was naturally extremely skilled at dealing with Qian Renxue.
She is the daughter of Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, and Qian Xunji, the former Pope.
He was sent to the Heaven Dou Empire's palace at a young age to impersonate the eldest prince, Xue Qinghe.
They cultivated power with the intention of usurping the throne.
In Qian Renxue's heart, she has always longed for the approval of her mother, Bibi Dong.
What Yu Tianqing didn't expect was...
This young master of the Spirit Hall actually appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest dressed as a woman.
Yu Tianqing's absent-minded thoughts appeared as adorable blankness to Qian Renxue.
"Why are you so adorably clueless?"
Are you alone in the forest?
Qian Renxue asked curiously, and leaned down slightly, gently pinching Yu Tianqing's cheek with her slender fingers.
Yu Tianqing remained silent.
I just can't understand it, what did my face do to deserve this?
Why does everyone like to pinch his cheeks?
After a slight pause, Yu Tianqing replied:
"I'm not alone; my family lives nearby."
Qian Renxue nodded slightly, and before Yu Tianqing could react, she picked him up in her arms.
Caught off guard, Yu Tianqing was pulled into Qian Renxue's arms.
Her arms were slender, yet powerful.
Her skin was as smooth as mutton fat jade, and her body temperature emanated through the thin fabric, carrying a faint fragrance.
At this time, Qian Renxue's figure had already begun to take shape.
What's that smell on me?
"It smells nice! It smells really good!"
For some reason, Qian Renxue felt an inexplicable fondness for Yu Tianqing the moment she first saw him.
In particular, the aura emanating from Yu Tianqing was extremely unique, making her unable to resist wanting to get closer.
Yu Tianqing did not answer Qian Renxue, but blinked his big eyes and stared straight at her.
Qian Renxue didn't mind, freeing one hand to pinch Yu Tianqing's cheek again, and asked with a smile:
"Did you see that soul beast just now?"
Yu Tianqing feigned innocence and nodded, saying:
"I saw it, but it was running very fast."
Upon hearing Yu Tianqing's reply, Qian Renxue was overjoyed and quickly asked:
Which way did it run?
"Hmm..."
Yu Tianqing did not answer immediately, but pretended to think.
After thinking for a moment, he then stretched out his little hand:
"I know where it ran off to."
"But you have to give me gold soul coins before I'll tell you."
Upon hearing Yu Tianqing's words, Qian Renxue was somewhat bewildered.
She paused for a moment, then recovered and chuckled:
"At such a young age, he's quite good at business."
As she spoke, Qian Renxue had a thought and directly took out a bag of gold soul coins from her soul tool and handed it to Yu Tianqing.
Yu Tianqing picked up the bag and weighed it in his hand; it was heavy.
There are at least several dozen.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue smiled slightly and said:
"Can you tell me now?"
Yu Tianqing nodded in satisfaction, then pointed in a direction deep within the forest:
"It went that way!"
Qian Renxue had no doubts what Yu Tianqing said.
After putting Yu Tianqing down, Qian Renxue instructed:
"Little one, hurry and find your family, it's dangerous in the forest."
Then, Qian Renxue didn't linger. She flashed away in the direction Yu Tianqing pointed, her golden hair fluttering in the wind, her back view long and elegant.
Yu Tianqing watched Qian Renxue's departing figure, a slight smile appearing on his lips.
"You still want to capture my Xiaoqing?"
"Unfortunately, she will never find it."
Xiaoqing was his martial spirit, and it was put away by Yu Tianqing as soon as he returned.
Thinking it over, Yu Tianqing tossed the bag containing the gold soul coins in his hand, then turned and left.
Before long, the others had returned to the camp.
Liu Erlong frowned when he saw Yu Tianqing return from outside:
"Sky blue".
"where have you been?"
She thought Yu Tianqing was still sleeping in the tent!
"Auntie, I just walked around a bit to get some fresh air!"
Yu Tianqing replied with a smile.
Liu Erlong didn't think much of it and interrupted the conversation:
"Tian Qing, I run the Blue Overlord Academy in Tian Dou City."
"You can come to Blue Tyrant Academy to study."
"He is a bit young."
"However, as the dean, I can make an exception for you."
"Your talent should not be wasted."
"So, think about it carefully."
Yu Tianqing nodded, but didn't rush to agree.
Soon, Ye Xian'er and Ye Lingling also came out of the tent one after the other.
Upon seeing Yu Tianqing, Ye Xian'er walked straight over, her white dress fluttering in the wind, her features exquisite, like a figure from a painting!
Ye Xian'er gently stroked Yu Tianqing's head as they approached:
"Sky blue".
"I'd like to collaborate with you. What do you think?"
Yu Tianqing was surprised:
"cooperate?"
Ye Xian'er nodded and explained:
"That's right."
"You help me accelerate the growth of herbs, and I'll help you find the best method for evolving your martial soul."
"How about a mutually beneficial arrangement?"
Yu Tianqing pondered for a moment, then readily agreed:
"Can."
Ye Xian'er was overjoyed to see Yu Tianqing agree and extended her little finger: "Okay, let's pinky swear."
Yu Tianqing had no choice but to reach out and hook his little finger with hers.
Then, Ye Xian'er suddenly leaned closer and gently kissed Yu Tianqing's cheek, smiling as she said:
"Then it's settled."
"From now on, cultivating medicinal herbs will all depend on you, Tianqing."
Yu Tianqing smiled slightly, still immersed in Ye Xian'er's kiss just now.
You can feel that Ye Xian'er's lips are soft and slightly cool, with a faint fragrance.
Ye Xian'er's heart was filled with anticipation:
"Perhaps... relying on Tianqing's abilities, we can find a way to break the curse of the Nine Heart Begonia."
For Ye Xian'er, the curse of the Nine Heart Begonia has always been a source of heartache, hindering the development of their lineage.
Therefore, Ye Xian'er spent a lot of time and energy researching ways to break the curse of the Nine Heart Begonia, but unfortunately, she has not yet made a sufficient breakthrough.
Now, Yu Tianqing has given her hope again!
Afterwards, Yu Tianqing and his group did not linger. They packed their things and began their return journey.
