I, the Lord of the Fifth Heavenly Throne, flow out of all things!

Shiyin also picked up the cutlery and tasted the cake in front of her.

"Delicious, so delicious, the taste is incredible, worthy of being called Lian."

The first time she took a bite, Shiyin felt a lot of sweet flavors exploding in her mouth. The relaxing and pleasant feeling made the girl give a cheerful cry of praise.

However, Shion seemed to have tasted something crispy in the red cake.

It is very crispy and delicious when chewed, and even the body becomes warm after swallowing.

"It tastes good... and has a sweet taste I haven't tasted before, what is it?"

Duanmulian also tasted the same crispy thing as Shiyin when she was tasting her blue cake.

His sense of taste is very strong and he has eaten countless delicacies. Although the cake is delicious, the ingredients in it have all been tasted by Duanmulian.

The only thing Duanmu Lian couldn't taste was the crispy and sweet thing in the cake, but she felt that it tasted very good.

I don’t know what special material Benjo Erya used in his space ring to make it.

Boom————

In an instant, a sound as if two heartbeats overlapped was heard.

"Um----!?"

Suddenly, after Shiyin and Duanmulian finished their respective portions of cake, Duanmulian suddenly frowned.

He heard the heartbeat that sounded like an illusion.

But what surprised him even more was the sense of joy, pleasure, happiness, and a series of other relaxing emotions that suddenly arose in his heart after he finished eating the cake.

Am I that happy? Or is this cake of such quality?

Moreover, because of the sense of déjà vu and emptiness, it was difficult for Duanmulian to be happy about things other than fighting and becoming stronger.

But why am I so happy today and don’t I have any sense of déjà vu?

This pleasant feeling is like that of a young child.

"Lian, why are you stunned?"

A small hand suddenly waved in front of Duanmulian. He turned his head blankly and looked at Shiyin, and saw the girl looking at him with curious eyes.

Duanmu Lian stared at Shiyin blankly, making the girl feel a little embarrassed.

Boom!

Here it comes again, that weird overlapping heartbeat sound!

And...what on earth is going on with this sudden shyness and hazy, immature, pure emotion that arises in his heart, like that of a young girl! ?

Wait, this feeling is not completely unfamiliar, it also seems a little bit familiar.

In this instant, Duanmulian accelerated her thoughts to the speed of light and immediately began overclocking her recall.

Then, he got, or rather recalled, the real answer to this feeling of déjà vu.

Lotus heart connected to heart, connected into one heart......

The spell that she recited to the colorful lotus seeds when she was refining the gourd giant suddenly echoed in Duanmulian's head like thunder.

The cake was filled with seven-color lotus seeds! ? ! ?

Guaaa————Honjo Nia!!! ...

ps: Please vote and recommend. I am sorry for the late update, but this chapter is very important. Here is the 8,000-word update.

Chapter 111 Overlapping Hearts

Snap, snap, snap, snap! ! ! ! !

The violent and intense sound of flesh hitting each other echoed fiercely in the room of the isolated island research institute, along with the shrill screams of pain from an old lady.

“Eeyeeeeeeeeeea ...

At this moment, Benjo Tong Erya was lying on the legs of Duanmulian, whose face was covered by a black shadow, howling miserably. Behind her, Duanmulian was slapping her butt with the Huangji Shocking Palm at a speed of a thousand times a second.

Liu Zi, who was standing aside, watched Honjo Nia being tortured quietly, without any sympathy in her eyes.

After all, this time, Honjo Niya really made things serious and actually used lotus seeds from the seven-color lotus to make a cake.

Two lotus seeds matured in the seven-color lotus, one blue and one red, and finally turned into two red and blue cakes.

And it just happened to be eaten by Duanmu Lian and Shiyin.

"Boy! Boy! I was wrong! I was really wrong!!!"

With tears in his eyes, Benjo Erya begged loudly for mercy on Duanmulian's thigh.

If it weren't for the magnetic field that blocked the sound from spreading in the room, her screams would have been heard by everyone in the research institute.

"You are such a pain in the ass, bitch!!!"

Duanmulian took a deep breath, threw Benjo Niya directly onto the bed, then covered her head and smiled bitterly.

The lotus seeds of the seven-color lotus have only one function, which is to merge one's own heart with others' hearts and become of the same heart.

After the minds are in harmony, they can also merge into one.

It can be said that the effect at this point is similar to the Tabora earrings in Dragon Ball.

The effect of lotus seeds may not sound harmful, but for Duanmu Lian, who is cultivating the power of gods and demons, it may lead to his downfall.

He has entered the "no-thought" stage where the gods and demons are one thought at a time. The gods and demons in his inner world are fighting all the time.

During this stage, he needs to keep his mind focused and not be selfless, and not be shaken by the erosion of gods and demons.

Otherwise you will become possessed and destroy yourself!

But now, as my true self, Duanmu Lian is connected to my heart because of the lotus seeds of the seven-colored lotus and the sound of poetry.

He himself was able to remain firm in his will and not forget himself, but when his heart was connected with Shiyin, it was difficult for him to do that.

After Liu Zi understood this, she looked at Honjo Niya with a very unfriendly look.

If the fight hadn't been over, she would have wanted to go up and beat him up.

After all, what Benjo Erya did greatly increased the chances of Duanmulian being finished.

"Is there no way to solve this?"

Honjo Niya, who understood the seriousness of the matter, lay pitifully on the bed with his swollen and red butt sticking up high.

"Master Duanmu, can you cut it off physically?"

After hesitating for a while, Liu Zi made a cruel proposal with a stern face.

If Duanmu Lian would die because of this, Liu Zi felt that she could physically sever this heart-to-heart connection and wipe out Shiyin, who was heart-to-heart with Duanmu Lian.

Even though she had a good relationship with Shion, Erica and others, when it came to the life and death of the person who was the most important person in her heart, Ryuzi felt that she could be ruthless.

"......"

After hearing Liu Zi's words, Duanmulian remained silent, with a hint of melancholy and complexity in her calm blue eyes.

He felt the pure emotions belonging to another girl in his heart, as well as the pure and immature longing for him... He had a strange feeling in his empty heart, which was both hot and warm, and very complicated and confusing.

Duanmulian shook her head at Liu Zi's cruel suggestion. It would not work to physically erase someone who was so connected to her.

Not to mention the unknown impact that the death of one of the two people who are connected will have on the other.

He couldn't even overcome this hurdle in Duanmulian's heart.

Because he couldn't do it with a clear conscience. If he really did that, it would leave a huge scar in his heart that only death could stop the spread.

Having killed so many evil and good people without wavering, his heart, though as solid as a rock, had already become twisted.

And his heart and Shiyin's heart had already been mixed together from the moment they connected, becoming inseparable.

The current situation is that Duanmulian, relying on her powerful spiritual cultivation, has controlled her own mind and has not sent her thoughts to Shiyin.

However, Shiyin's feelings were continuously conveyed to Duanmulian and entered his heart.

And he...cannot refuse or reject it.

This is probably one of the effects and functions of lotus seeds.

You can resist on your own and not open up to the other person, but you cannot control the other person's mood.

They only have the right to refuse to express their feelings to each other, but they do not have the right to refuse the feelings conveyed by the other party.

[I really want to fly with you all again...]

[Lian has been working overtime for two weeks, why hasn't she come out yet...]

【lotus.......】

“Uh-huh—”

The pain inside and the strong longing in her heart made Duanmu Lian unable to bear it. She frowned and clenched her teeth.

He took out the [Avatamsaka Heart Sutra] from his space ring and concentrated all his attention to study it in ecstasy.

As for the daily trivial matters, they were all left to Liu Zi.

Duanmu Lian felt very complicated about Shiyin, the woman who made him upset.

Receiving unilateral kindness from others already makes him feel awkward and troubled, and he is even more accustomed to the malice of others.

But Shiyin...she conveyed her pure and tender feelings directly into Duanmulian's heart without missing a word.

While causing him to feel shaken and have flaws in his inner scene, he also had a strange feeling in his heart.

..........

In the corridor of the research institute's western-style building, Liu Zi held the information materials prepared by Duanmulian in her arms and walked into the laboratory belonging to Erica and Natsume.

"excuse me."

After knocking on the door and entering the room, Ryuzi saw Erica and Shion who were busy.

When Shiyin turned her head to look at Liu Zi, there was a hint of anticipation in the depths of her scarlet eyes.

However, when he only saw Liu Zi's figure but not Duanmulian, that hint of expectation was replaced by deeper disappointment and loss, and finally turned into a calm expression like a still pond.

Perhaps other people could not catch the fleeting emotions in Shiyin's eyes, but Liu Zi was definitely not an ordinary person. She clearly saw the emotions in Shiyin's eyes.

"These are the documents that Master Duanmu has sorted out."

Liu Zi's expression was calm and indifferent. She gently reached out and handed the stack of documents in her arms to Natsume in front of her.

Erica took the document, checked it, and then handed it to Shion beside her.

"Liu Zi-chan, is Lian-jun still working alone? Is he alright?"

Looking at Liu Zi in front of her, Erica touched her chin and asked with a worried expression.

After eating the cake that day, Duanmu Lian announced to the public the next day that she had entered a critical stage of work and did not want to be disturbed.

Including today, they haven't seen Duanmulian for nearly a month.

"It's okay, Master Duanmu has had a good rest, but the research has entered a critical stage and he can't stop."

In response to Erica's sincere concern, Liu Zi shook her head slightly, indicating that it was nothing serious.

Duanmulian's condition is not very good now, and it is getting worse.

After all, I haven't seen Duanmulian for a long time, and the girl's longing for her has become even stronger and deeper.

"......"

Shiyin pursed her lips and said nothing.

With her observation skills, she couldn't see or read Liu Zi's emotional fluctuations, but her intuition told her that Liu Zi was hiding something from her.

Or maybe Liu Zi lied, and something happened to Lian.

Something...that you don't want her to know?

"Alalalala..."

Although Erica didn't feel anything, she sighed helplessly because of Liu Zi's words, and smiled softly, "It's the same as Shiyin. Once she gets into the state, she has no distractions. But when this child concentrates on thinking about something, she even forgets how to open the door."

"Erica!"

Shion raised her hand and gently pinched the soft flesh on Erica's waist, causing her to laugh uncontrollably with an "ouch".
