Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 103 Gift of Immortal Herbs! Dark Phoenix!

"I went to the Spirit Pagoda to register my battle armor today and happened to run into the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo."

“Sister Yu Lai, you know my… Gu Yue is my classmate, I can’t just give her the cold shoulder for no reason.”

Jiang Yi coughed lightly twice under Leng Yulai's resentful gaze.

Good sister! How could you smell that?
Is your martial soul truly a phoenix, and not some unevolved Qilin?
"Really?"

Leng Yulai glanced at Jiang Yi suspiciously, then a hint of pain and hatred flashed in her eyes.

"You'd better stay away from her! She's changed a lot! ... She's the best at fooling people with that kind face."

Leng Yulai said coldly, her tone full of advice from someone who had been through it all.

She used to trust this older sister so much, but... in the end, she still lied to her.

It doesn't matter if Leng Yaozhu takes her position as the family heir, and it doesn't matter if she takes Yun Ming's position either.

But why did she have to secretly go to Yunming after the two of them made the agreement?
Could that scoundrel be more important than his sister?
It is this betrayal of sisterhood that she still cannot get over.

"Don't worry, Sister Yu Lai, I'm just doing this for the mission."

Jiang Yixing nodded solemnly and patted his chest to assure him.

"Once the mission is over, if I have the chance, I will definitely avenge you and tear her to pieces to vent my sister's hatred!"

Based on his many years of experience in his previous life, when a woman is complaining about another woman, just go along with what she says and never try to reason with her.

Sure enough, Leng Yulai's expression softened considerably, and the gentle smile that she used to have returned to her lips.

"Smooth talker! She's a four-word battle armor master! Are you going to go up there and serve yourself up?"

Leng Yulai rolled her eyes at Jiang Yi, but her tone softened.

“This is between her and me…it’s none of your business. One day, I will settle things with her myself.”

Leng Yulai shook her head, a complex expression in her eyes.

For decades, she dreamed of standing in front of her sister and questioning her about why she betrayed her back then.

This has always been a knot in her heart!

"Sister Yulai, no matter what, I will stand by your side."

Jiang Yi said earnestly.

When the time comes, we'll teach Leng Yaozhu a lesson!
Sister Yu Lai, I support you!
"Ok!"

Leng Yulai nodded with relief, the gloom between her brows gradually dissipating.

What a good brother to his sister!

She reached out, intending to give Jiang Yi a hug, when an untimely voice rang out beside her.

"Ahem... I'm still here."

Nanali rolled her eyes helplessly. "You two are putting on a show of sibling affection?"

I shouldn't be here; I should be in the field.

"Hmph, then why don't you just leave?"

Leng Yulai gave a light snort, without the slightest embarrassment.

Compared to Leng Yaozhu, she was the one with a straightforward personality who never hid her feelings.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Little Phoenix, you've already forgotten your roots?"

Nanali crossed her arms and looked at Leng Yulai with disdain.

Ha~ women!

I've completely forgotten who brought the two of them together! And what about our decades-long friendship?
"Alright, alright, ladies, stop for a moment. I have something for you."

Jiang Yi stepped forward and stopped the two from arguing.

"what?"

Nanali and Leng Yulai looked over at the same time, their eyes filled with curiosity.

"This place isn't very convenient, let's find a quieter spot."

Jiang Yi spoke up.

"Wait for me a moment!"

Nanali nodded and turned to leave.

Before long, the tavern closed early, and the guests gradually left.

……

In the backyard of the tavern, the three sat together.

A pot was set up in the center, and the table next to it was filled with various ingredients, which made the atmosphere much more relaxed.

"I obtained some immortal herbs from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, which may be helpful to you two sisters."

Jiang Yi looked at the two people in front of him and said with a smile.

At present, Leng Yulai and his companion are his biggest supporters. The stronger they are, the greater his autonomy will be within the Holy Spirit Cult.

Especially Leng Yulai, even if he leaves the Holy Spirit Cult now, this god-sister will probably leave with him.

As for Nanali, Jiang Yi was confident he could win her over. Spending a few immortal herbs to win over both of them would be a very worthwhile investment for him.

"Silly little brother!"

Leng Yulai looked at Jiang Yi tenderly, her eyes almost melting with tears.

She knew the legend of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and even Yun Ming and his companions had suffered setbacks in the trials within.

This silly younger brother suffered so much inside because of her.

"Immortal herb? Forget it, it's useless to me. You should save it for the little phoenix."

Upon hearing this, Nanali's eyes lit up at first, but then she shook her head.

She's been stuck at level 98 for many years, not because she hasn't accumulated enough experience, but because of her own limitations; that's where her ceiling is.

"Ok?"

Jiang Yi glanced at Nanali with some confusion, but Nanali didn't explain. She just kept her face up and stared intently at the meat slices rolling in the pot.

Just then, Leng Yulai's voice rang in his heart.

"Due to her early experiences, Nanali's soul was damaged, and her spiritual power has been unable to break through to the Spirit Realm."

Jiang Yi turned his head and saw Leng Yulai gently winking at him.

"Some immortal herbs can also repair the essence of the soul, right...?"

Jiang Yi transmitted his voice to Leng Yulai, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Leng Yulai paused for a moment, then finally explained to Jiang Yi.

“She’s different. Humans have three souls and seven spirits, but she’s lost one soul…”

“If it weren’t for her special martial soul, Nanali would have died long ago, and she wouldn’t have been able to wait for the Ghost Emperor to take her back to the Holy Spirit Cult.”

Jiang Yi was speechless for a moment.

It seems that no magical herb can be of any use in this situation. Perhaps the Acacia Heartbreak Red herb could, but he can't pick it.

With so many beautiful women around him, it's possible he might be attracted to them, but he could never be devoted to anyone.

"Sister Yu Lai, let me pick out two immortal herbs for you. May I check your martial soul?"

Jiang Yi pondered for a moment, suppressed his doubts, and looked at Leng Yulai.

"Ok!"

Leng Yulai met his serious gaze, blinked her beautiful eyes slightly, and nodded without hesitation.

She stretched out her jade-like hand, and black flames ignited around her. Accompanied by a clear phoenix cry, a black phoenix phantom appeared behind her, and a dense aura of darkness spread out.

However, there seemed to be an invisible barrier at the edge of the courtyard, which steadily confined this powerful aura within the courtyard.

Time-space shuttle?

Jiang Yi glanced at the invisible barrier and wondered where the Holy Spirit Cult got this artifact.

"Sister Yu Lai, relax."

Jiang Yi dismissed his extraneous thoughts, grasped Leng Yulai's hand, and slowly probed into her with his spiritual power.

"Ok!"

Leng Yulai lowered her head and responded, then turned her face away somewhat awkwardly, a faint blush rising on her cheeks.

A martial spirit is an integral part of a soul master. The difference between Jiang Yi's careful examination of her martial spirit origin and stripping her naked for close observation is not significant.

However, she did not want to refuse Jiang Yi's kindness.

"Qiluo, take a look and see which of these immortal herbs can remove the negative effects of the Dark Phoenix."

While sensing Leng Yulai's martial soul, Jiang Yi silently summoned the Qiluo Tulip.

As the king of immortal herbs, Qi Luo is definitely much more professional in pharmacology than him, a half-baked expert.

“Master! This sister’s Dark Phoenix Martial Soul, although it is born with the dark attribute, has not evolved completely and cannot fully control the dark energy.”

Qiluo Tulip responded quickly.

"I have two options: one is to completely remove the dark attribute and turn her back into a fire phoenix; the other is to remove impurities and purify the dark attribute to its extreme, so that she can truly evolve into a dark phoenix..."

Leng Yulai's situation is not complicated. The Dark Phoenix's evolution was not complete, which prevented her from fully controlling the dark energy within her body, which in turn affected her.

"Sister Yu Lai..."

Jiang Yi withdrew his hand and told Leng Yulai about Qi Luo's two proposals.

"I choose the second one!"

Leng Yulai said without hesitation, "If the dark attribute is removed, what kind of Dark Phoenix Douluo would she be?"
She has her own principles and pride!

Moreover, she has long since adapted to the power of the Dark Phoenix, and if she were to forcibly transform back into the Fire Phoenix, her strength would inevitably be greatly diminished.

"These are Phoenix Sunflower and fragrant beads from the Qiluo Tulip. They can help purify the dark attribute in your martial soul."

Jiang Yi nodded and took out a fiery red immortal herb and a purple bead that emitted a faint fragrance.

The Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower once helped Ma Hongjun remove impurities from the Evil Fire Phoenix, and it itself has the effect of purification and refining.

With the guidance of the fragrance of the Qiluo Tulip, it can be used to precisely temper the Black Phoenix True Fire, helping it complete its final transformation.
