Douluo Continent: Now that everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be a simp?

"Just like Bing'er, you've leveled up three times. That's great!"

"Lingling, you look so beautiful when you smile. You should smile more often."

Before Yan could even speak, the others rushed to offer words of encouragement.

Ye Lingling looked at Yan and then said:

"Just as you predicted, my martial spirit has indeed changed."

"Really? Release it and let me see."

Yan was somewhat expectant.

The others were also very excited.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Ye Lingling slowly released her martial spirit.

With the complete fusion of the immortal herb's power, Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul underwent a change.

The crabapple blossom, which originally had nine red and white petals that exuded a faint healing light, has now sprouted a tenth petal.

The newly emerged petal is different from the other nine petals; like the stamen of the Kira tulip, it is golden in color.

The golden petal was located in the very center of the nine petals, shimmering with golden light, as if it contained endless vitality and hope.

Everyone was shocked to see this.

"Has this Nine-Heart Begonia evolved?"

Ye Lingling nodded.

"The change in my martial soul not only brought about a three-level increase in soul power, but also gave me a stronger healing ability. In addition, this golden petal also granted me the ability to restore soul power."

"Really? So, you can not only heal us, but also help us recover our depleted soul power?"

"Ah."

"That's great! Now we're much more confident in dealing with the wolf bandits."

Feng Xiaotian seemed very excited.

Yan was also somewhat surprised.

He knew that as a support-type Soul Master, Ye Lingling's Soul Skills were relatively simple; no matter how many Soul Rings she had, she only had one area-of-effect healing ability for the entire party.

The degree of healing can be controlled by her will; the higher the level, the more soul rings she has, and the more soul power she can use for healing.

She can heal even the most severe injuries as long as the person isn't dead, but she can't help her companions restore their soul power or detoxify.

But now, after Ye Lingling's martial soul evolved, she has gained the ability to restore soul power, which allows her to play a more important role in the team.

Ye Lingling looked at Yan, her eyes filled with gratitude.

"Brother Yan, thank you for giving me the legendary Ten-Heart Begonia, which helped me to be reborn."

Seeing the tears welling up in Ye Lingling's eyes, Shui Bing'er went over and took her arm, asking with heartache:

"Lingling, what's wrong with you?"

"From today onwards, I am no longer a Nine-Heart Begonia Soul Master. I can finally be myself."

Chapter 131 Absorbing the Ice Dragon Bone

131.

As the sole inheritor of the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul lineage, Ye Lingling's life was almost predetermined after she awakened her Martial Soul at the age of six.

Although the Nine-Heart Begonia Soul Master's abilities are limited, their powerful healing abilities still make them a coveted object for various forces.

The previous generations of Nine Heart Begonia Soul Masters served the Heaven Dou Royal Family from birth to death.

They cannot decide their own fate, nor can they change it.

The Heavenly Dou Royal Family may seem like the best sanctuary, but in Ye Lingling's eyes, it's like a cage.

She had long lost her freedom, as if she were wearing an invisible shackle.

She requested to come to Tianshui Academy for training this time, in order to escape the suffocating imperial city for a short time.

However, she was accompanied by royal guards.

Ye Lingling may seem delicate, but she has a stubborn streak deep down.

When she learned that Yan and his group were going to the west to hunt wolf bandits, she agreed without hesitation.

Rather than live like a walking corpse, she would rather realize her own value, even if it means dying on the battlefield.

Now, her martial soul has mutated and is no longer the Nine-Hearted Begonia.

Several people were a little confused.

Feng Xiaotian asked curiously:

"What did you just say? Your martial soul has mutated, so it's no longer a Nine-Hearted Begonia type? My martial soul mutated into the Gale Twin-Headed Wolf, but it still belongs to the Gale Demon Wolf clan. Is your situation different?"

"Ah."

Ye Lingling nodded, then explained:

"Our Nine Heart Begonia clan is very special. There are very few of us, and only two heirs can live at the same time. In the history of our clan, there has never been a Soul Master above the Soul Douluo level. There is a legend in the clan that if one can achieve the title of Douluo, one can break through the limitations of the Martial Soul and evolve the Martial Soul into Ten Heart Begonia, and will no longer be a Nine Heart Begonia Soul Master."

Yan asked:

"So you mean that your martial soul has mutated into the Ten-Heart Begonia, and a new replacement will appear among the Nine-Heart Begonia soul masters?"

"That's right. So, I want to thank you."

Huo Wu suddenly said:

"Lingling, after your martial soul mutated, you gained stronger healing abilities and the ability to restore your soul power. Wouldn't that make you even more attractive to others?"

Feng Xiaotian also expressed his concern:

"Yes. We might also be threatened by other support-type Soul Masters, such as those from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Ye Lingling looked at everyone and said gratefully:

"Thank you for your concern. I originally served the Heavenly Dou Royal Family only out of a sense of duty to my clan. Now that I am no longer bound by the clan, I can follow my own path. Your concerns are valid, but I will be careful."

Shui Bing'er said:

"If we return safely this time, Lingling can stay in our academy for now, and we will protect her."

"Bing'er, thank you."

Feeling Shui Bing'er's kindness, Ye Lingling felt a warm current flow through her heart.

Yan knew that absorbing the Qiluo Tulip would greatly increase Ye Lingling's cultivation speed, and if she could survive, she would have a chance to achieve the title of Title Douluo.

Looking out the window, Yan said:

"It's getting late, you should go and rest. Bing'er and I still have things to discuss, and Lingling should stay as well."

"Then let's go."

Huo Wu winked at Shui Bing'er, then left the room with Huo Wushuang and Feng Xiaotian.

"Brother Yan, is it something very important? We need to keep it a secret from them too?"

"It's not about keeping it a secret, it's just that I don't want to disturb their rest time."

As Yan spoke, he took out the round ice dragon bone from his soul tool.

The dragon bones gleamed with a pale blue light.

The light was not dazzling; instead, it carried a refreshing coolness that seemed to penetrate the heat and restlessness, reaching the most tranquil corner of the heart.

As the light shifts, delicate textures faintly emerge on the surface of the Ice Dragon Bone, seemingly containing immense power.

Both girls were deeply attracted to the ice dragon bone.

Shui Bing'er asked curiously:

"Brother Yan, what is this? It looks like a soul bone, but it doesn't look like any part of the body."

Yan smiled and said:

"This is a dragon bone, from the Ice Dragon King."

"The Ice Dragon King?!"

Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling looked at each other, both of them shocked.

To them, the Dragon King was merely a figure of legend.

Although it was unbelievable, both of them believed Yan's words without a doubt.

"Brother Yan, how did you obtain such a magical treasure?"

"I found this by chance in an ancient ruin. This ice dragon bone may contain the ultimate power of ice, which is perfect for you. Here you go."

As Yan spoke, he handed the dragon bone to Shui Bing'er.

Shui Bing'er found it hard to believe and was not ready to accept it.
