Chapter 216 Rejection
Back in the seventh basement level of the reformatory, Di Youlin sensed Ning Xuan's presence through instinct. He was originally unruly, and the reason he gradually compromised and bowed his head after coming to Ning Xuan's side was because he knew that Ning Xuan was the only one who could save him.

At this moment, Di Youlin was of sound mind. He was very certain in requesting Ning Xuan to link with him. It was not a momentary impulse or a whim.

In fact, his reason for competing with Yun Han for Ning Xuan today was to ask Ning Xuan to link with him, but he lost control of his aura and hurt someone, which angered Ning Xuan.

"Oh, it can only be me. What if I don't want to?" Ning Xuan said with a stern face.

"Master, don't you want to touch me after I've turned into a phoenix? Don't you want to ride a phoenix? You saw it today too. My beast genes are manifested in phoenixes that are entirely crimson gold. Every feather flows with a molten gold brilliance, and my tail feathers trail seven layers of cyan-blue light. It's very magnificent. Wouldn't it be impressive if you had a phoenix as a mount?" Fearing that Ning Xuan wouldn't be interested, Di Youlin tried his best to describe the scene.

Ning Xuan smiled and glanced down at Di Youlin. "With your personality, if you didn't need me anymore, you'd run as far away as possible. You're just making empty promises to me." Ning Xuan said with amusement.

"How could I dare, Master? I wish I could stick to you every day, so why would I want to run away?" Di Youlin said with a wronged expression.

"Do you think I don't know that you're clinging to me now just for your own comfort? But once your crisis is over, things might change." Ning Xuan shook her head and turned to leave.

"Master, don't go. With the mental connection channel, I can't escape your control at all. Master, just tell me what conditions you want me to agree to." Di Youlin held Ning Xuan tightly and wouldn't let go.

“There are no conditions, Di Youlin. My contractors were all forcibly matched by the mainframe. Forced matching has the highest priority among all matching systems, so they are all considered official partners, which is perfectly legitimate.”

"As for you, I was forced to take you in because your family is powerful. You just said that your mother has found countless controllers to match you with. Your father and mother are still alive. If I link with you, and you can fully transform, the crisis will be resolved, your combat power will greatly increase, and you will return to the Federation's territory, will your family think that I took advantage of your situation and delayed your progress?" Ning Xuan said with a sneer.

Ning Xuan's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Di Youlin, making his heart tremble instantly. Ning Xuan's concerns were very reasonable. If he could really be completely transformed, his parents might not think it was Ning Xuan's achievement. Even if he explained and confirmed it, his parents might not believe him, especially his mother.

“Master…” Di Youlin wanted to say something more, but he didn’t know what to say.

"Alright, no need to kneel anymore. Go back to sleep. I told you to kneel as punishment, but you wouldn't behave. You're always making these little moves." Ning Xuan stepped aside and pulled her leg out.

After watching Ning Xuan leave and return to her large tent, Di Youlin had no choice but to stand up and slowly walk towards the tent next to the large tent.

Di Youlin returned to his tent, which was not far from Ning Xuan's. Di Youlin pricked up his ears, searching for any sounds coming from Ning Xuan's tent.

Di Youlin seemed to hear Yun Han's broken groans, and some indescribable images flashed through his mind in an instant, and his face gradually turned red.

The next morning, Yun Han didn't come out for breakfast. Di Youlin had been temporarily assigned to mining by Ning Xuan, which was originally Yun Han's job. Now that Di Youlin was covering for him, Yun Han could rest. Today, Ning Xuan took Chen Nan, Lan Xin, and Qing He to cultivate beneath the Spiral Nebula. Qing He cherished the opportunity to cultivate alongside Ning Xuan. Currently, thanks to the improvement in his bloodline genes, the scales on his body had no longer gone out of control, and the excruciating pain in the areas where the scales grew hadn't recurred for a long time.

Lan Xin was also able to completely absorb the scales on his body, and after this period of cultivation, his mental strength and physical fitness had significantly improved.

The same applies to the others. If a blood test were conducted at this moment, Ning Xuan believed that her mental strength value would have increased significantly after breaking through to S-level, and her physical fitness and overall combat strength would have also improved markedly.

Besides taking advantage of the superior external environment to cultivate diligently, Ning Xuan also took several body-refining medicinal baths. While taking these baths, she discovered that the medicine diluted with water from the lake was more potent than the medicine diluted with ordinary water.

Di Youlin was mining for Yun Han while Ning Xuan went to cultivate. Coincidentally, the mining site was not far from Ning Xuan's tent. Di Youlin broke into Ning Xuan's tent under the pretense of getting a drink of water.

Yun Han leaned lazily against the bed. When Di Youlin entered, a mocking smile appeared on his face. "What's wrong? Seeing Ning Xuan so composed, Young Master Di has lost his patience and can't wait any longer?"

Yun Han was wearing a tie-up silk nightgown; the fabric was shiny and smooth, and the style was very loose.

He leaned against the bed, his pajamas unbuttoned, revealing a large expanse of his chest. A clear teeth mark was visible on his fair skin near his collarbone, and a purplish-red mark lay below his Adam's apple. Something seemed to be wrapped around his barely visible waistline.

Di Youlin wanted to see more clearly, so he couldn't help but take a few steps forward. Yun Han didn't expect him to approach, his expression changed, and he said, "What are you doing?" before getting up from the bed.

"Hiss..." Yun Han gasped in pain. Di Youlin saw a black and red thorny vine, about the thickness of a finger, suddenly dart out from behind Yun Han, stand upright like a snake, and stop in front of Di Youlin.

"Hey, I meant no harm, I'll go out now." Di Youlin had been bound by the Ghost Face Red Vine before, so he naturally knew what the red vine tasted like. He didn't expect Ning Xuan to have left the Ghost Face Red Vine on Yun Han. Di Youlin was afraid of being caught by Ning Xuan, so he wanted to leave as soon as possible.

"Stop right there, what do you want with me?" Yun Han asked with a grim expression.

"It's nothing. Didn't I hurt you yesterday? Although I didn't mean to, I still hurt you, so I wanted to come and apologize." Di Youlin slowly took a few steps back, and stopped when he was sure that the ghost-faced red vine had shrunk back.

"Hehe, Young Master Di can apologize? That's unbelievable. If it's just for an apology, then I understand. You can leave now." Yun Han adjusted his posture and then dismissed him.

"Um, how about we chat a bit more? It's fate that we serve the same master. We've known each other before. Since you're so favored, could you give me some pointers?"
