Ye Qiu put down what he was holding.

"Oh? So fast! Let me see!"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan also raised her head and looked at Ye Qiu.

"can!"

Ye Qiu nodded.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan also raised her head and looked at Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu extended his index finger, pointed it at the wooden stake beside him, and a blue halo appeared at the tip of his finger. A ball of light the size of a peanut shot out.

Thud! It hit the wood, leaving a small dent about half an inch deep...

"This won't do!" Dugu Bo glanced at it and shook his head. "But you're still just getting started..."

"Hmm!" Ye Qiu nodded. "The current power is still too weak and needs a lot of improvement."

"By the way, Soul Masters should prioritize cultivation. Don't spend too much time on these things, lest it hinder your cultivation!"

"Don't worry, senior, I understand that!"

Ye Qiu deeply agreed with this point; 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..."

Chapter 119 Half a Year

Sunset in the forest, the rising sun, and purple clouds coming from the east.

Inside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye Secret Realm, Ye Qiu was sitting cross-legged on the roof of a wooden house, cultivating the Purple Extreme Demon Eye.

Although the risk of blindness has been eliminated, this eye-training method can still improve one's mental strength (pupil power).

"Ye Qiu, aren't you ready yet? Come and eat!"

In the distance, Dugu Yan, who had just heated up the food, called out to Ye Qiu.

"Okay! It's over, I'm coming!"

Ye Qiu finished his practice and jumped down.

When Ye Qiu arrived, Dugu Yan had already served him his meal.

"Thank you, Miss Dugu!"

"Alright, alright! Hurry up and eat, I'm so tired of hearing 'thank you'!"

Dugu Yan held the bowl, her voice no longer cold. Her green eyes darted upwards, she glared at him, and then casually served Ye Qiu some food.

She then ignored him and started eating on her own.

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed since we encountered the Ice and Fire Dragon Soul.

At this moment, the small table in the wooden shed was rather deserted, with only Dugu Yan and Ye Qiu present.

The two had lived under the same roof for quite some time, and their relationship had improved considerably; at the very least, they were good friends...

As for Dugu Bo, that old guy is appearing less and less often, sometimes not even for six or seven days.

Without him going out to buy things every day, there are fewer dishes on the table.

Dugu Yan has never lifted a finger to cook, and Ye Qiu isn't particularly skilled in the kitchen either; the main problem is that it's troublesome.

These were all packed up and brought back yesterday. The area around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well Cold Spring is a natural cold storage; food placed there only needs to be heated up.

"Are you going to see Xiao Lan at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School again today?"

Dugu Yan didn't look up. She added some food to Ye Qiu's bowl, as if chatting with him casually, and asked questions in a calm tone.

"Hmm! It's been almost a month, it's time to go see them..." Ye Qiu dared not delay, Ning Rongrong alone was enough for him to handle, not to mention Xiao Lan, the foodie.

"Hmm?" Dugu Yan frowned and gave Ye Qiu an unfriendly look.

"I didn't ask you about that young lady from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

"Hmph! When do you plan to bring Xiao Lan back to keep me company again..." Dugu Yan snorted coldly and continued.

Spending too much time with Ye Qiu, that blockhead, is really boring; all he does all day is cultivate!

Her sleeping habits had been spoiled by Xiao Lan, and she didn't sleep as comfortably without Xiao Lan around.

"Uh...hehe!" Ye Qiu couldn't help but laugh awkwardly. "I'll try my best to persuade her..."

"Hmph! You always say that, but Xiao Lan rarely comes back. Am I not good to her?"

Dugu Yan poked at her bowl, feeling somewhat resentful.

Ye Qiu continued to laugh awkwardly, wanting to offer some comfort but not knowing what to say, so he simply added some more dishes for her.

There's no way around it, Xiao Lan is just a glutton! The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is incredibly wealthy, and Miss Ning can get whatever she wants with a wave of her hand. I bet Xiao Lan is eating her fill every day!

After breakfast, Ye Qiu was about to send Dugu Yan to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

Since taking on this job, he has never missed a single time picking up and dropping off Dugu Yan.

The two figures disappeared from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well secret realm and appeared in a vast open space in the Sunset Forest.

Ye Qiu habitually grabbed Dugu Yan's wrist, and a low-end Eternal Kaleidoscope appeared in his eyes, its blood red tinged with purple.

Dugu Yan, who was standing to the side, quickly lowered her head. Having learned from the previous experience, she no longer dared to look Ye Qiu in the eye casually.

Her earlobes, covered by long, purplish-green hair, had a deep, blood-red hue.

She still vividly remembered the scene when Ye Qiu first took her there, and how she, in a daze, tackled him to the ground.

At that time, I not only kissed him several times, but I even put my hand inside his clothes.

If Ye Qiu hadn't stopped him in time, he might have been sent away without even knowing why.

Afterwards, she didn't hold back in causing trouble for Ye Qiu, constantly calling him a lecher and a beast.

While she was thinking.

Ye Qiu had already used his divine power, and space began to distort, with the two figures being swallowed by an invisible vortex.

When they reappeared, they were at the place where the two had first met.

In the grove of trees surrounding the Royal Fighting Team's training ground.

The space rippled, and the two figures appeared here, not yet standing still.

A silver-haired girl with a veil on her face, who had been waiting there for a long time, came to greet them.

He affectionately linked his arm with Dugu Yan's. "Yanzi! You've finally arrived..."

"Lingling!" Dugu Yan smiled sincerely when she saw the person who came.

"What's wrong with you? Why is your face so red? Did you bully Ye Qiu again?" Ye Lingling's voice was teasing as her eyes scanned the two of them.

Since Ye Qiu started picking up and dropping off Dugu Yan, he naturally had more contact with Ye Lingling, and they became much more familiar with each other than before. She also stopped deliberately distancing herself from Ye Qiu.

"Lingling, what nonsense are you talking about!" Dugu Yan glared at her, but her eyes were actually observing Ye Qiu out of the corner of her eye.

"Miss Lingling, please don't make such jokes, otherwise Miss Dugu will cause me trouble again..." Ye Qiu said with a wry smile, stopping Ye Lingling's topic.

"My goose isn't as stingy as you think! Right... Goose?"

"?" As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Lingling's eyes turned strange. She suddenly noticed that her best friend's face showed a hint of anger.

"Hmph! I can't be bothered arguing with you. You should go keep your little sweetheart company! Lingling, let's go..."

Dugu Yan's voice carried a hint of coldness; she was not entirely satisfied with Ye Qiu's answer. She wasn't about to target him because of a joke; she wasn't the same person she used to be...

He grabbed Ye Lingling's arm and pulled her away from there.

"Miss Dugu, wait a moment!"

"What? Is there anything else?" Dugu Yan looked at him curiously.

Ye Qiu stepped forward, took her hand, and placed a small jar in it.

"This is the antidote I made last night. You like sweets, so I added some sugar... Remember to take it on time. I'll come pick you up tonight."

"Okay, I understand!" Dugu Yan nodded gently, her voice softening considerably.

Ye Qiu held her tender hand in his, and she felt a tingling sensation.

"In that case, I'll leave first!"

With a casual smile, as a farewell to the two, Ye Qiu's figure disappeared into the grove of trees as the vortex appeared!

"Ye Qiu's soul skill is truly amazing. I wonder when I'll be able to experience it myself?" Looking at the spot where Ye Qiu had left, Ye Lingling's eyes showed a hint of amazement and anticipation.

Then he turned to look at Dugu Yan, who was still staring blankly at the small jar in her hand.

"Speaking of which, Yanzi, are you and him still not making any progress?!"

"Hmm! He spends all his time cultivating, he basically never chats with me or anything... Wait, what kind of progress could there be between us!?"

Halfway through her sentence, Dugu Yan snapped out of her daze, her face flushed, and she glared at Ye Lingling with hostility.

"Oh? Is that so? But speaking of which, I didn't expect Ye Qiu to be so sweet~ She even made your medicine sweet!" Ye Lingling teased her.

"Don't you feel even a little bit tempted, Yanzi?"
