"Dragon God's Soul?!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Han's face instantly lit up with joy.
However, he quickly recalled the previous gifts bestowed by the Dragon God.
The Dragon God's Holy Body, the Dragon God's Essence—all of them were incomplete!
Thinking of this, Ye Han's excitement waned, and he frowned, asking, "This Dragon God's Soul... it's not another defective product, is it?"
Hearing this, even the Dragon God felt a bit awkward. After a light cough, he solemnly replied, "Ahem! Indeed, my dragon soul is currently incomplete, not even a ten-thousandth of its peak power!"
"However, it is still not to be underestimated. It can increase your current soul and spiritual power by tenfold!"
"You should understand how terrifying and beneficial a tenfold increase in soul and spiritual power can be!"
"Moreover, my dragon soul can repair itself as your soul and spiritual power grow, becoming even stronger!"
"Most importantly, it possesses the unique ability to communicate telepathically with dragon-type spirit beasts or divine beasts!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Han was overjoyed. He naturally understood the benefits of such an increase in soul and spiritual power.
A tenfold increase? Wouldn't that allow him to absorb spirit rings from spirit beasts without worrying about soul shock?!
"Buzz—!"
Seeing Ye Han's delight, the Dragon God's eyes glowed with a golden light as he bestowed the Dragon God's Soul.
Ye Han immediately felt a refreshing coolness in his mind, as if a great clarity had washed over him.
Among the rewards from the Dragon God's first three trials, the Dragon God's Holy Body strengthened his physical body, the Dragon God's Essence enhanced his aura, and now, the Dragon God's Soul fortified his soul and spirit!
If all three were fully restored, wouldn't that mean he would possess the power of the Dragon God?!
"Enough."
Before Ye Han could express his joy, the Dragon God's voice rang out again:
"Since you have completed the third trial, your next task is the fourth trial."
"You must first head to the Sunset Forest's Ice Fire Two Eyes. There, I will announce the fourth trial to you."
Ye Han was momentarily stunned, wondering if the fourth trial was related to the Ice Fire Two Eyes.
However, he didn't ask further and simply nodded in agreement. Then, remembering something, he respectfully said, "Dragon God, thank you for your assistance today."
The Dragon God remained calm and replied, "No need for thanks. I am merely fulfilling the promise I made to you."
"However, my intervention today may have drawn the attention of the divine realm!"
"In the coming years, I may not be able to assist you again. You must be cautious and avoid reckless actions like today!"
Ye Han understood and nodded in agreement.
The Dragon God continued, "Additionally, when I helped you repel the enemy, your body was too weak and suffered backlash."
"Although I stabilized it in time, your foundation was severely damaged. You will need to consume some immortal herbs to recover."
Ye Han nodded, knowing that these issues could be resolved once he reached the Sunset Forest.
Seeing this, the Dragon God said no more. His massive golden eyes glowed with a golden light once again.
"Buzz—!"
Ye Han felt the surroundings blur.
When he regained consciousness, he was back in the real world.
As soon as he returned, he saw Xiao Wu, completely naked, acting seductively, seemingly about to take the final step!
"Damn rabbit, get lost! I'm not so hungry that I'd eat you!"
Ye Han was shocked and quickly slapped her away.
"Ah!"
Xiao Wu lost her balance and fell to the ground, immediately passing out.
"This damn rabbit is so disgusting!"
Ye Han cursed and quickly began dressing her to avoid any misunderstandings when Ling Yuan returned.
However, just as he was halfway through dressing her, footsteps echoed from outside.
Ye Han recognized the sound of Ling Yuan's high heels and felt a sense of dread.
"Creak~"
Sure enough, the door opened, and Ling Yuan's figure appeared.
"You... you two...!"
Ling Yuan froze at the sight before her.
"Ling Yuan!"
Seeing Ling Yuan safe and sound, Ye Han was overjoyed.
But soon, panic set in, fearing she might misunderstand. He hurriedly explained, "Cough! Listen, this damn rabbit broke free and tried to seduce me! I knocked her out and was just dressing her!"
As he spoke, Ye Han quickly finished dressing Xiao Wu and stood up awkwardly, looking at Ling Yuan.
Ling Yuan's eyes flickered with complex emotions, but in the end, she chose to trust him unconditionally.
"Why so nervous? As long as you're safe, my dear husband!"
Ling Yuan put down the dinner she had bought and walked over to hug Ye Han gently.
"Ling Yuan..."
Feeling the warmth of her embrace, Ye Han was filled with both warmth and guilt.
It was all his fault for not thinking things through, nearly causing Ling Yuan to lose her life today.
"Ling Yuan, I'm sorry, I..."
Ling Yuan didn't let him finish, cutting him off sternly, "So! What's with the divine power in your body? Explain yourself!"
Ye Han was stunned, wondering if it was safe to tell Ling Yuan about the divine inheritance.
After all, she had promised not to reveal anything and had nearly died for him!
Thus, Ye Han told Ling Yuan about obtaining the divine inheritance and undergoing the divine trials, asking her to keep it a secret and not reveal Tang Hao and his son's whereabouts, as he planned to settle things personally in the future.
"D-divine inheritance! Divine trials!"
Ling Yuan was utterly shocked.
This little guy, Ye Han, had actually obtained a divine inheritance?
At that moment, everything became clear to Ling Yuan. No wonder Ye Han knew so much—he had the backing of a deity!
As Ye Han's future woman, she naturally had to support him fully and assist him in completing the divine trials!
"My dear husband, don't worry. I'll keep your secret~"
"From now on, tell me everything. I'll help you complete the divine trials!"
Ling Yuan spoke earnestly, leaving Ye Han deeply moved.
"Thank you, Ling Yuan."
But soon, Ye Han was filled with regret, wanting to apologize for today's events.
If not for the Dragon God's intervention, Ling Yuan might have died at Tang Hao's hands.
"Alright, it's fine. We're both safe now, aren't we?"
Ling Yuan, sensing what Ye Han wanted to say, cut him off and smiled gently, "Wash your hands and come eat dinner. We'll rest tonight and return to the Spirit Hall tomorrow."
With that, she turned to prepare the dinner she had bought.
Ye Han watched Ling Yuan's busy figure, feeling even more touched.
He silently vowed to protect Ling Yuan at all costs.
Today, she had faced danger because of him. He would never let that happen again!
With this thought, Ye Han clenched his fists, his hatred for Tang Hao deepening.
Today, Ling Yuan had nearly died at Tang Hao's hands. This debt would not be forgotten.
Tang Hao, you beast, just wait!
New grudges and old hatred—I will make you pay a thousandfold in the future!
Ye Han's heart burned with anger, but he knew that to exact revenge, he needed to grow stronger.
Currently, his foundation was damaged and required immortal herbs to heal. The fourth trial also required him to go to the Ice Fire Two Eyes.
Thus, he had no choice but to head to the Sunset Forest. Besides, his original plan was to go there anyway.
First, to cure Du Gu Bo's poison in exchange for immortal herbs. Second, to obtain herbs to conceal the identity of the rogue rabbit.
With this in mind, Ye Han stood up and explained to Ling Yuan that he needed to go to the Sunset Forest to undertake the new divine trial.
He also mentioned that capturing the rogue rabbit was part of the third trial and that he needed the herbs to conceal her identity.
After hearing Ye Han's explanation, Ling Yuan had no objections and fully supported him.
However, she felt a hint of unease and dissatisfaction at the thought of the rogue rabbit, Xiao Wu, becoming Ye Han's personal spirit beast.
...
Time flew by, and the next day arrived.
After waking from his slumber, Ye Han set off for the Sunset Forest.
Xiao Wu, still convinced that Ye Han was a divine beast infiltrating the Spirit Hall, continued to play the role of a clueless girl to avoid exposing his identity.
