When Yang Podi returned to Heaven Dou Imperial Academy after more than a month, he was quite happy to see his group of friends again.
However, Ye Lingling still wore a veil, making it impossible to discern her expression.
Yang Ping'an directly exclaimed, "Big Brother, your cultivation speed is too fast! You're already a Soul Ancestor? This must be the fastest breakthrough to Soul Ancestor in history!"
"Ping'an, just focus on your cultivation. You'll reach it soon as well. I have faith in you."
That evening, after dinner, Yang Podi did not return to his dormitory to cultivate. Instead, he went to Ye Lingling's dormitory.
When Yang Podi knocked on the door, a soft voice came from within, "Hello, who is it?"
Yang Podi hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Lingling, it's me, Yang Podi."
Silence fell inside the dormitory, with not a sound to be heard, clearly signaling unwillingness to open the door.
After a brief moment of thought, Yang Podi spoke again, "Lingling, please open the door and let me see you. I really have something important to tell you."
"Can you say it from outside the door?"
"No, Lingling, trust me. What I have to say is very important."
After a while, the door finally opened. Surprisingly, it was Dugu Yan who answered, while Ye Lingling sat motionless on the sofa, seemingly lost in thought.
Yang Podi addressed Dugu Yan, "Sister Yan, could you give us a moment alone? Don't worry; I won't hurt Lingling."
Dugu Yan looked amused, "Oh, Podi, you're already calling her 'Lingling' so affectionately, even though you two aren't together yet. Should I congratulate you in advance?"
Yang Podi's face flushed with embarrassment before he softly replied, "Sister Yan, please excuse us for a moment. I promise to repay your kindness later."
"You little rascal, only now do you think to bribe me? Isn't it a bit late? Haven't you always loved increasing our training, torturing us as much as you could?"
"Sister Yan, please understand I was young and inexperienced. Besides, the increased training was for your own good."
"Good for us? My skin's worsened because of you!"
"You don't need to worry about that, Sister Yan. The Breaking Clan has secret medicines that can make your skin smoother and more radiant. I'll get them for you."
"You brat, why didn't you offer such good stuff earlier?"
"I thought you were already so beautiful that you didn't need it, Sister Yan."
"You cheeky brat. You've gotten much smoother with your words in just a few days. Fine, I'll leave, but don't bully Lingling, or you'll have to watch out for my poison."
After saying this, Dugu Yan glanced at Ye Lingling on the sofa before leaving.
Yang Podi then sat down across from Ye Lingling on the sofa.
"Lingling, listen to me. I've always thought you're the gentlest, most beautiful, and kindest girl I've ever met."
"Actually, I've liked you for a long time. I'm just not good at expressing my feelings."
Hearing this, a flash of light seemed to appear in Ye Lingling's eyes, but it quickly dimmed. "Captain, I understand what kind of person you are, but we're not suited for each other. You are the direct descendant of the Breaking Clan, while I am the direct descendant of the Nine Hearts Begonia family. It's impossible for us to be together."
Yang Podi quickly responded, "What's impossible about it? Whether it's the Breaking Clan or the Nine Hearts Begonia family, as long as we're together, our families won't interfere."
At this, tears seemed to glimmer in Ye Lingling's eyes. "But our Nine Hearts Begonia clan is cursed. There can only ever be two Soul Masters with the Nine Hearts Begonia martial soul in the entire world. I bear the mission of inheriting this martial soul, and I'll never have freedom in life or fate."
Hearing this, Yang Podi felt relieved. "Lingling, I understand the situation of the Nine Hearts Begonia martial soul. It's not a curse; it's simply a flaw of the martial soul, just like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. Their martial soul is incredibly powerful in support but can only cultivate up to level 79 and can't break through to the Soul Douluo level."
"My Breaking Clan has generations of expertise in refining medicinal herbs. There are countless rare herbs in the world, and two specific immortal herbs can cure the flaw of the Nine Hearts Begonia martial soul."
Ye Lingling was visibly shaken, unable to suppress her tears. "How is that possible? We're a clan renowned for medicine, so why haven't I heard of this?"
"Lingling, have you ever heard of the immortal herbs Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and Lovesick Heartbroken Red? These are rare treasures."
"The Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum is the king of immortal herbs, noble and majestic, capable of identifying and commanding all other heavenly materials. Consuming it allows one to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, as well as the brilliance of the sun and moon."
"The Lovesick Heartbroken Red is a supreme treasure among immortal herbs, capable of reviving the dead and regenerating flesh. It should be able to heal the flaws in your martial soul."
"With these two herbs, your martial soul's flaws can be completely cured."
For a moment, a glimmer of hope appeared in Ye Lingling's expression, but it soon dimmed again. "Captain, I've never even heard of these herbs. Are you making this up to deceive me?"
"Lingling, have I ever lied to anyone? The herbs I just mentioned—I already have information on them. I'll definitely find them one day and cure your martial soul's flaw."
Seeing that Ye Lingling's heart seemed to waver, Yang Podi quickly took out a book—the Douluo Continent Immortal Herb Encyclopedia, a treasured heirloom of the Breaking Clan.
When Yang Podi opened the book to the pages describing the Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and Lovesick Heartbroken Red, Ye Lingling stared at the content in disbelief.
The book appeared ancient and was clearly a family heirloom of the Breaking Clan. It detailed the two immortal herbs, complete with vivid illustrations that seemed almost lifelike.
After a long time, Ye Lingling calmed herself, closed the book, and returned it to Yang Podi. After all, this was a family secret of the Breaking Clan.
"Captain, thank you. Thank you for showing me hope for the future."
Yang Podi tried to gently touch Ye Lingling's hair, intending to remove her veil.
However, Ye Lingling, like a startled deer, quickly dodged. "Captain, we still don't know each other well enough. I'm not used to the way you're acting right now."
Yang Podi smiled. "Lingling, don't worry. From now on, I'll make sure every day of your life is filled with happiness and joy. I'll make you the happiest girl in the world."
With that, Yang Podi prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he spoke again, "Lingling, don't mention these two herbs to anyone yet. I already have concrete information on them. If too many people find out, there will be great trouble when obtaining them."
It wasn't that Yang Podi was unwilling to part with the herbs. If he could, he would give them directly to Ye Lingling to use.
But the flaw of the Nine Hearts Begonia martial soul was widely known, as was Ye Lingling's Soul Power. Revealing the herbs prematurely would only bring disaster to her and her clan.
Imagine if Ning Fengzhi knew Ye Lingling could cure her martial soul's flaw and greatly increase her Soul Power. He might go so far as to sacrifice half of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan to target Ye Lingling and himself.
