Chapter 28: Qian Jun: Hu Bai and Sister Xue, something is clearly off with them! Light Heal!
Qian Renxue saw her grandfather looking over and immediately felt a little confused: "Grandfather, what's wrong?"
"Xue'er, the difference in soul power between you and Xiao Bai isn't very large, and your relationship is also good. Are you willing to let him use his mental power to delve into your body to observe the operational path of your third Soul Skill? This kind of thing can only be done with confidence when both parties have an extreme amount of trust in each other," Qian Daoliu gently explained to Qian Renxue.
After more than an hour of practice, the relationship between Hu Bai and Qian Daoliu's High Priests also became much more harmonious. They even started calling Hu Bai 'Xiao Bai' on their own.
To be honest, Hu Bai was a little speechless about this nickname. Was this the name of a small animal?
Although his Martial Soul was a Nine-tailed Sky Fox, he was still a human!
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's face flushed slightly. Her heart beat much faster, her eyelashes drooped slightly, and her entire person became much shyer. Looking at Hu Bai, her voice trembled slightly: "Okay, I trust Xiao Bai."
Qian Renxue's appearance made Hu Bai unable to help but stare. He was a fox, so why was he attracted to Qian Renxue's adorable appearance?
And truly, when Qian Renxue was young, she was like a porcelain doll, looking incredibly cute and charming.
Hu Bai and Qian Renxue gazed at each other for a while.
Qian Daoliu watched all of this with a smile, while the other six High Priests noticed something was amiss.
Qian Jun transmitted his voice: "Big Brother, it seems you don't even need to play matchmaker. Look at how these two are now; it's clear there's something going on, hehe."
If outsiders knew that Qian Jun, a man of several decades, was still so keen on gossip, wouldn't their jaws drop?
"Ahem, Xiao Bai, why are you still standing there foolishly?" After a good while, Qian Daoliu reminded him. "You only have half an hour left to stay in the Worship Hall today. Hurry up and go over to perceive it well with your mental power."
Qian Daoliu only spoke up to remind him when he saw that the time was almost up.
With half an hour left, could Hu Bai's ability complete the application of this Soul Skill?
Hu Bai came back to his senses, nodded, released his third eye, walked in front of Qian Renxue, forehead to forehead, and said faintly: "Sister Xue, release your third Soul Skill. I'm going to start."
This was the first time the two of them were so close. Hu Bai seemed to hear a series of thumping heartbeats against a chest, as if it were Qian Renxue's, and also as if it were his own.
Qian Renxue's delicate eyelashes couldn't help but flutter, and she looked very nervous.
While Hu Bai was secretly observing Qian Renxue, Qian Renxue was also secretly observing him.
A cool sensation on her forehead, snow-white eyelashes, fair skin—looking up close, Qian Renxue felt that Hu Bai's skin seemed even better than hers.
And Hu Bai's warm breath occasionally brushed against her face, giving her body a very hot sensation.
Immediately afterward, both their eyes met coincidentally. With this gaze, both became shy and simultaneously closed their eyes, not looking at each other.
Don't look at Hu Bai having awakened his past life's memories, with a Soul (mental) age of over twenty; in his previous life, during college, he had never even held hands with the opposite sex, let alone been so close to such a beautiful young girl.
Calling her a 'young girl' isn't entirely accurate—after all, the age of adulthood differs between the two worlds. In this world, Qian Renxue will reach adulthood in less than two and a half years.
And because she had three soul rings, Qian Renxue's body had also developed quite a bit. Although she didn't have Zhu Zhuqing's 'big capital,' she could still be described as having a perfect figure.
Subsequently, Qian Renxue's third soul ring slowly rose, and a Holy Light Heal enveloped both of them.
If one looked closely, they could see that the color of Qian Renxue's third soul ring was a bit deeper than standard light purple, reaching the level of medium purple.
Because Qian Renxue has Innate level twenty soul power, after her Martial Soul Awakening, she was able to acquire her first two soul rings. At that time, she didn't know Hu Bai, nor did she know the effect of whale rubber, so she couldn't achieve a thousand-year second soul ring like Hu Bai and Xie Yue.
Hu Bai met Qian Renxue when she was a little over seven years old.
During Qian Renxue's release of her third Soul Skill, Hu Bai's mental power also began to seep into her body. With the enhancement of his External Soul Bone, he could very easily control his mental power to observe the operational path of her soul power during the release of this Soul Skill.
Ten minutes later, just as Qian Renxue's soul power was about to be exhausted, Hu Bai finally spoke: "Okay, Sister Xue, I understand!"
Hu Bai's forehead was separated from Qian Renxue's. Seeing her somewhat pale face, he immediately felt a pang of heartache: "Sister Xue, are you okay?"
Qian Renxue shook her head and said, "I'm fine. I just consumed a little soul power. Do you understand now?"
Those short ten minutes were very agonizing for her, not because of the soul power consumption, but because Hu Bai's mental power entering her body gave her an unnatural tingling sensation all over.
Hu Bai nodded excitedly and said, "I should have it. Let me try!"
"Light Heal!"
Instantly, a dazzling golden light covered Hu Bai, Qian Renxue, and Qian Daoliu.
"Sister Xue, Grandfather Qian, feel it."
The moment Light Heal was released on Qian Daoliu, Qian Daoliu knew that Hu Bai had succeeded!
Originally, he thought that without the blessing of the sacred attribute, even if Hu Bai succeeded in the end, the healing effect would not be as good as Holy Light Heal.
But perhaps due to the Soul Skill's enhancement, the healing effect of his Light Heal was already no weaker than Holy Light Heal, and even subtly surpassed it. Was this the effect brought by elemental affinity and a two-hundred percent amplification of light elements?
It was truly terrifying!
Of course, what shocked him the most was that Hu Bai had only spent two hours learning this self-created Soul Skill!
Even Tang Chen back then didn't have such an ability, did he?
Although his guidance played a part, he felt that Hu Bai's success was still due to his extremely high comprehension ability in this regard.
Some Soul Skills can be passed down, but if the person learning them lacks comprehension ability, no matter how much they are taught, they will never learn!
Even Tang Hao, when learning the Clear Sky Secret Method back then, probably spent a lot of time, and it was impossible for him to learn it as easily as Hu Bai did today.
Don't look at it as just a healing Soul Skill learned today, but Holy Light Heal is a thousand-year level Soul Skill after all!
A quarter of an hour later, Bibi Dong also arrived at the Worship Hall very punctually.
"Hu Bai, how is your learning coming along?" Bibi Dong's voice was cold but carried a hint of curiosity.
