After a moment of silence, Ye Xian'er looked at Yu Tianqing curiously and asked:
"Oh, right, Tianqing."
"You came to see me, there must be something you need, right?"
Yu Tianqing smiled slightly and replied:
"There are some things I'd like to trouble Aunt Ye with."
"oh?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xian'er became even more curious and asked with a smile, "Tell me! What is it?"
Yu Tianqing didn't hide anything and told Ye Xian'er about his plan to continue evolving his martial soul.
The purpose, of course, was to have Ye Xian'er prepare the herbs he needed for his evolution, as well as the proportions of various herbs.
These previous evolutions were what Ye Xian'er prepared for Yu Tianqing.
"I thought it was nothing."
"Don't worry! I'll prepare the herbs and their proportions for you."
Seeing that Ye Xian'er agreed immediately, Yu Tianqing was also pleased and then asked:
"Aunt Ye, is there still enough immortal herbs?"
From the beginning until now, Yu Tianqing has completed the five transformations of the Azure Dragon.
Each evolution consumes a lot of herbs.
In addition, he also helped Ye Xian'er, Liu Erlong, Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Yu Yuanzhen and others evolve their martial souls.
The consumption of immortal herbs and various medicinal herbs is naturally quite high.
Hearing what Yu Tianqing said, Ye Xian'er smiled faintly and said:
"As for immortal herbs, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well still has some."
"However, it will take some time to ripen before it can be harvested and used."
"As for other herbs, you don't need to worry at all. Under the nurturing of your Azure Spirit Liquid, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye has produced a large number of other herbs."
"Although these herbs are not as precious as the immortal herbs, they are still extremely rare herbs."
"Enough to support your next evolution."
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianqing felt relieved.
Thinking that the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire was indeed a treasure trove, he could improve it further to ensure a continuous supply of various medicinal herbs.
Just as Yu Tianqing was lost in thought, Ye Xian'er's beautiful eyes narrowed, and she looked directly at Yu Tianqing.
"Um?"
Suddenly being stared at like that by Ye Xian'er, Yu Tianqing frowned slightly and asked in doubt:
"Aunt Ye, why...why are you looking at me like that?"
Ye Xian'er smiled beautifully and replied:
"nothing."
"I just feel like time flies by so fast."
"Back then, you were just a little kid, and now you've grown so much, you're even taller than me!"
As she spoke, Ye Xian'er's gaze lingered on Yu Tianqing's tall figure.
Yu Tianqing smiled faintly and said:
"Time flies."
"Over the years, I am so grateful for your care, Aunt Ye."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xian'er paused for a moment, then quickly said:
"You're being too polite, kid."
"If we're really going to say thank you, it should be Lingling and I who thank you."
"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to escape the curse of the Nine Heart Begonia, and our martial souls would never have evolved into the Nine Heart Immortal Begonia."
As she said this, Ye Xian'er looked at Yu Tianqing with eyes full of gratitude.
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianqing smiled and said:
"Aunt Ye, let's not thank each other."
"Didn't we agree on a mutually beneficial arrangement?"
Ye Xian'er nodded slightly, feeling quite emotional.
She thought it was fortunate that she met Yu Tianqing, which gave her and Ye Lingling a new future.
As she was thinking, Ye Xian'er suddenly moved closer to Yu Tianqing, then tiptoed and planted a sweet kiss on his face.
"this..."
This sudden turn of events left Yu Tianqing somewhat bewildered.
Although Liu Erlong and Ye Xian'er often kissed and hugged him when he was a child, he was still very young at that time.
But now, Yu Tianqing has grown into a tall, handsome, and sunny young man.
Ye Xian'er's intimate behavior towards him left Yu Tianqing somewhat at a loss for what to do.
"oh?"
Seeing that Yu Tianqing seemed a little reserved, Ye Xian'er was slightly surprised and asked in a low voice:
"how?"
"Has she become shy now that she's grown up?"
"Aunt Ye has kissed you before, what's there to be embarrassed about?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianqing snapped out of his reverie and joked:
"Aunt Ye, I'm not shy at all!"
"How about... you kiss this side of your cheek too?"
As he spoke, Yu Tianqing turned his cheek to the side.
Seeing Yu Tianqing's slyness, Ye Xian'er was amused and replied:
"OK!"
"Don't you dare try to hide, kid."
Before she could even finish speaking, Ye Xian'er kissed Yu Tianqing on the other cheek.
This scene was somewhat unexpected for both of them.
Yu Tianqing thought Ye Xian'er wouldn't kiss him, while Ye Xian'er thought Yu Tianqing wouldn't dodge.
Unexpectedly, Yu Tianqing did not dodge.
After the kiss, Ye Xian'er's heart trembled, and she blushed, her face turning red. She lowered her head and said:
"Great, Tianqing!"
"So young, and you've already learned how to take advantage of others, huh?"
Yu Tianqing was slightly taken aback, feeling both amused and exasperated. He hadn't expected Ye Xian'er to be so obedient and actually kiss him again.
After a moment of hesitation, he pursed his lips and said:
"Aunt Ye, if you feel like I've taken advantage of you, how about I give you a kiss back?"
"you..."
Ye Xian'er was taken aback by what Yu Tianqing said.
"puff!"
After a slight pause, Ye Xian'er couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh out loud:
"You've grown up now, and you're much more glib than before."
Yu Tianqing remained calm and didn't seem to care.
After all, he's not a child anymore. Faced with a beauty like Ye Xian'er, it's hard not to be a little restless. A few teasing remarks wouldn't be a big deal.
After a brief silence, Ye Xian'er changed the subject:
"Tianqing, do you remember when I mentioned Lingling to you before?"
As she said this, Ye Xian'er's expression became much more serious.
Yu Tianqing paused for a moment, then remembered and said:
"Aunt Ye, are you referring to the fact that Lingling isn't your biological daughter?"
Many years ago, Ye Xian'er told Yu Tianqing that Ye Lingling was not her biological daughter.
Ye Xian'er nodded and replied:
"That's right, that's it!"
"Although Lingling is not my biological daughter, we are related by blood."
"I can tell that Lingling has been in love with you for a long time."
"You'd better treat her well from now on!"
Upon hearing Ye Xian'er's words, Yu Tianqing suddenly reached out and grasped Ye Xian'er's hand.
"ah?"
This sudden turn of events caught Ye Xian'er off guard, leaving her somewhat at a loss.
Before she could say anything, Yu Tianqing had already inquired:
"And what about you, Aunt Ye?"
When Yu Tianqing asked her this question, Ye Xian'er appeared flustered and her mind was inexplicably in turmoil.
After a moment of silence, she feigned composure and said:
"I... I'll just stay single for life."
To Ye Xian'er's surprise, after hearing her answer, Yu Tianqing became even bolder with his other hand, directly wrapping his arm around her slender waist and chuckling softly:
"Aunt Ye."
"How about I take care of you from now on?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xian'er was shaken, her mind went blank, and her cheeks flushed crimson.
