Bai Yu grinned and cursed under his breath, "What kind of weird habit is this? Why do they all like to bite people?"
"I give up, I give up, please stop biting me, I won't say anything more, okay? I really won't say anything more!"
Liu Erlong released Bai Yu, looked up at him, and saw that he couldn't help but laugh, which made her quite angry!
Her expression immediately changed, and she asked Bai Yu in a cold tone:
"By the way, Bai Yu, didn't you say before that everyone who becomes your woman will receive an Immortal herb as a greeting gift? What about mine?"
"Huh!?"
Bai Yu's smile froze instantly, turning somewhat awkward.
It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with the immortal herb, but rather that it wasn't as effective as one might imagine for someone whose level exceeded that of a Soul Saint.
Take Ning Fengzhi for example. The only effect of the immortal herb on him is to break through the shackles of his martial soul. After obtaining the soul ring, it's uncertain whether he can even reach level 82.
"Hmm... if you want it, I can give it to you, but I have to explain first that this thing has a big reputation, but to put it bluntly, it's just a herb for strengthening the body's foundation and nourishing the vital energy."
"It has little effect on people whose level exceeds Soul Saint, and your martial soul is now considered half a super martial soul, so the effect of the immortal herb on you is even more negligible."
As Bai Yu spoke, he took out a wooden box, opened it, and a white Ganoderma lucidum shaped like a flying dragon appeared.
Liu Erlong blinked, took it out of the wooden box, and looked at it in surprise.
"That's the immortal herb? It's nothing special, is it? What's the name of this immortal herb?"
Bai Yu smacked its lips and said with a hint of helplessness:
"Different types of fairy herbs have vastly different appearances. Some Immortal herbs are flashy and colorful, while others, like this dragon fungus leaf, are plain and unremarkable."
Liu Erlong's eyes widened. There were also fancy and colorful immortal herbs? What did he mean by fancy and colorful?
She then put the dragon's tongue leaf back into the wooden box and turned to look at Bai Yu.
"Do you have any other fancy Immortal herbs? I want to see what they look like to earn your praise!"
Seeing Liu Erlong's curious expression, Bai Yu scratched his lips and took out another jade box.
Upon opening it, a dazzling orchid comes into view, shaped like a phoenix spreading its wings, with its plumage drooping down like a phoenix tail.
"The Phoenix Tail Orchid is also an Immortal herb, with a radiant appearance that shines day and night. However, it will not only be useless to you, but it will probably also repel you."
Liu Erlong held the Phoenix Tail Orchid in her hand and indeed sensed the repulsion emanating from the immortal herb, which made her even more astonished.
"Wow, it's really beautiful, quite flashy indeed. Alright, I've seen it all, let's put it away. Now I can say I've seen the Immortal herb!"
Hearing Liu Erlong's words, Bai Yu's lips curled up slightly, and she said with a smile:
"What? You don't want the immortal herb anymore? Weren't you all baring your fangs and claws before?"
Liu Erlong rolled her eyes at Bai Yu, her expression one of disdain.
"No, you didn't give it to me before, and now you're only giving it to me after I ask for it. It's like I'm some kind of cheap thing!"
"Besides, didn't you say the magic herb is useless to me? What would I need it for? You can keep it to fool young girls!"
Bai Yu blinked, wondering if Liu Erlong was jealous. Then he pulled her into her arms.
"It's not entirely useless; it can still enhance soul power to some extent. However, since immortal herbs are rare and precious natural treasures, it's really not worthwhile to use them to enhance soul power by just a little bit."
"Besides, didn't I compensate you with the Golden Saint Dragon Essence? That stuff is more useful to you than immortal herbs, so I didn't let you suffer a loss!"
Liu Erlong leaned against Bai Yu's chest, closed her eyes, and said in a perfunctory tone:
"Yes, yes, you're right. You, Master Bai, are very fair!"
"By the way, Bai Yu, I'm already level 80, but I still haven't figured out how to get the eighth ring. Can you help me think of a way?"
"Otherwise, I'll have to go find my father. To be honest, even now, I don't really want to see him. He abandoned my mother back then, and I'll probably never be able to forgive him for the rest of my life."
What could Bai Yu do? He could only grit his teeth and agree, otherwise his wife would have to go back to her parents' home if anything happened, which would prove that the man was no good!
"Alright, leave this to me. You've seen my strength. At worst, I'll take you out to find a soul beast; it'll be a piece of cake!"
Liu Erlong chuckled to herself, thinking to herself that Bai Yu was really stubborn! But what he said wasn't wrong either; her little man was indeed quite strong.
After spending some time together, Bai Yu was kicked out by Liu Erlong under the pretext of needing to stabilize his cultivation.
After leaving Liu Erlong's place, Bai Yu looked worried and kept muttering to herself.
"I've certainly made a boast, but where am I going to find a Soul Ring? With Erlong's current spirit strength and physique, a Soul Ring with a lifespan of 80,000 to 90,000 years is no problem."
"It's just that her mental strength is a bit weak, otherwise she could barely try even after 100,000 years. Tsk, where can I find a dragon-type fire-elemental soul beast that's 80,000 or 90,000 years old?"
"Hmm... I guess I'll have to resort to plundering. Gu Yuena, you didn't expect this, did you? I'm back again!"
After making his decision, Bai Yu held his head high and strode towards Gu Yuena's courtyard.
Although he didn't want to be a kept man, he had no choice; Gu Yuena was both beautiful and rich. He might as well enjoy it while he could!
When Bai Yu arrived at a small courtyard, he hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and decided to knock on the door.
"Gu Yuena, are you there? It's me, Bai Yu, I've come to find you!"
To be honest, he hesitated a little before knocking on the door.
Bai Yu was afraid. What if Gu Yuena had a change of heart, grabbed him, and suppressed him in the Lake of Life?
But then he thought, if she wanted to arrest him, she would have done so already. What's meant to be will be, so he might as well just go for it!
As the door opened, Zi Ji appeared before Bai Yu, staring at him with hostility.
"What are you doing here again? Get the hell out of here! I'm telling you, don't even think about deceiving the Lord again, or you'll regret it!"
"ah!?"
Bai Yu's eyes widened. At that moment, he had only one thought: Oh no, he's been exposed! This damn notebook is so bad, how could it give him away like this?
He never expected that Zi Ji, this illiterate dragon, was on a completely different wavelength! He was thinking about the diary, while Zi Ji was talking about picture books!
"Alright, Zi Ji, let him in."
Just as the two were staring at each other, Gu Yuena's voice came from inside the courtyard, breaking their stalemate.
Zi Ji snorted coldly, ignored him, and turned to walk into the courtyard.
Bai Yu took a deep breath, constantly reassuring himself.
"Hiss, relax, there's no way they'll find out. You're just overthinking it. After all, my power of creation can really assimilate other powers. At worst, I'll just get captured!"
He then composed himself and followed them inside.
"Didn't we just meet yesterday? Why are you here again today? Is there something you need?"
Gu Yuena also looked a little strange. After all, she would sense Bai Yu from time to time, but she hadn't noticed that he had encountered any problems.
(TL: I just remembered something.. mc stated his soul tool just needs to study the aura of a soul beast to be able to replicate it to make soul rings, so hes going to the forest to hunt for a dragon type soul beast, that's fine, but hes going to gu yuena with what I can only assume to be the intent to hunt down that dragon, since he mentioned erlong only withstanding 80k and not 100k cause of soul shock, so why couldn't he just get gu yuena to temporarily capture a dragon soul beast to study then let it go, I know earlier on mc stated he wasn't at that level yet but who knows he might reach it soon anways, its just the 8th ring not the 9th, and hes already level 7)
