Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 215: Like, Not Humble

Back in the courtyard, Hun Ruoruo looked at the room that had devoured her soul before. Because she had hurriedly run out, the sheets on the bed were crumpled into a ball, the window screens were drawn tightly, and the thick fabric prevented any light from entering the room.

The evil thoughts at that time flashed through her mind. She hesitated for a moment and did not choose to enter the room. Instead, she closed the door and then walked out quickly.

It was obvious that she was still brooding over her previous emotional outburst and was not as relaxed as she appeared to be.

After casually walking around the yard twice, Hun Ruoruo sighed lightly, then as if she had lost some strength, she pressed her whole weight on the stone table under the tree and swung her legs carelessly.

In order to become stronger and to obtain the guardian soul order to find her mother's news, she asked herself that she could give up everything, but the only thing she could not lose was her bottom line and her original intention.

Even though I have purified my soul, I still show evil thoughts to those who care about me. What is the point of finding my mother and bringing her back?
She wouldn't want to see me become an emotionless person, right?
The girl's thoughts were racing, and when she heard the sound of hurried trots coming from outside the yard, she came back to her senses and put away her previous emotions.

"My husband, you are so rude! Not satisfied with taking advantage of me, you even came to my place just as the sun was setting. Isn't that a bit too unscrupulous?"

The complaining words were tinged with ridicule and mockery. Hun Ruoruo's eyes gradually narrowed into crescents. She was not surprised by Xiao Yan's arrival, but rather felt a sense of inexplicable amusement.

After all, this is her yard and there is no one around. Could this guy dare to take advantage of her like he did before?
What's more, he had received a soul shock before, so it was impossible for him to be dishonest.
A moment later, the courtyard door was creaked open, and Xiao Yan walked in while groaning and rubbing his head, obviously feeling very uncomfortable.

"Tsk tsk, my husband is actually not afraid. You dare to stay here overnight before you even marry me. Aren't you afraid that I will complain to my two brothers?"

Hun Ruoruo said with a smile, and the shaking of her legs seemed to become more cheerful, and the crisp sound of the bells also became louder.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan rolled his eyes, casually sat down on the stone block next to the girl, and said weakly:

"I'm not staying here for long, so stop making trouble. Ruoruo, you should know that I came to talk to you about something."

"So what if I know? You're just asking about Qinglin. I heard what you and Xuelan said earlier. That girl has the ability to tame snakes, right?"

Hun Ruoruo spoke frivolously, seemingly lacking her previous knowledge and manners.

As early as when she showed deliberate attention to Qinglin, Hun Ruoruo had already prepared herself to be noticed by Yao Lao.

Before awakening, the Green Snake's Three-Flower Pupil had almost no difference from the physique of a normal person. Without the stimulation of a powerful snake, even with Yao Lao's spiritual power, it would be difficult to detect her abnormality.

Because of this, Hun Ruoruo, who knew in advance about Qinglin's special physique, would naturally make the other party suspicious.

In fact, she had already anticipated this when she showed kindness to Qing Lin. Now that Xiao Yan mentioned it, she certainly didn't feel surprised at all.

But what Hun Ruoruo didn't expect was that Xiao Yan just shook his head and smiled helplessly:
"Although I do have this doubt, Ruoruo would have taken the initiative to tell me these things even if I didn't ask, right?"

"Oh? You're quite clever, then, my dear, please tell me what you want to ask me."

Hun Ruoruo asked curiously, and her swinging legs stopped.

“I don’t mean to ask anything.”

Having said that, Xiao Yan touched his nose, and then said with a bit of embarrassment:
"I just felt that the strange fire was obtained too easily earlier, so I wanted to give you a gift as a reward."

"You mean, you want to give me a gift?"

Hearing this, Hun Ruoruo looked back at Xiao Yan in surprise, and even her mouth couldn't help but open a little wider. Seeing the girl's raised brows, Xiao Yan paused and said frankly:
"After all, you came all the way to the desert and gave so much, but in the end, you gave it all to me. It's a bit inappropriate. Even that ancient river should have promised you a reward. I always get nothing in return, which makes me feel guilty."

"That's it."

Hun Ruoruo blinked and spread out her tender white hands.

"Take it out and take a look?"

She was indeed a little surprised by this guy's sudden outburst of emotional intelligence. This time in the desert, apart from the reward promised by Gu He, she really didn't get any benefits.

However, the purpose of her trip was not to obtain any opportunities or treasures. After all, no matter how good the things in the desert were, could they be better than the Douling Pill promised by Gu He?
Winning over Hai Bodong and controlling Queen Medusa are her strategies for fishing for big fish. Apart from that, there is really nothing in this desert that she would be interested in.
Before he could finish his thoughts, the huge green lotus that suddenly appeared in front of him had already attracted Hun Ruoruo's attention.

Lines containing mysterious fluctuations gradually appeared on the lotus petals, and then unfolded layer by layer like the most ingenious mechanism, revealing the white jade tray-shaped lotus platform in the center.

"This is, the Qinglian sitting platform?"

Hun Ruoruo stared at the complacent young man in front of her with her beautiful eyes wide open. For a moment, she was unusually confused.

"Is this the gift you were talking about?"

Xiao Yan chuckled and nodded, "Well, since you're going to give me a gift, it should be better than what Gu He gave me, right? This Azure Lotus Platform is a companion item to the Strange Fire. Even a sixth-grade elixir shouldn't be worth as much as it."

"This thing of yours can indeed greatly speed up the cultivation speed of cultivators below the Dou Wang level, but I'm already a Dou Huang. I should at least do some research before giving you something, right?"

Hun Ruoruo was amused by Xiao Yan's smug look and sounded the alarm without mercy:
"Your cultivation progress is indeed rapid, but the three-year agreement is definitely not a joke for you. You're just going to give up the cultivation resources at hand. Do you really think you can definitely defeat Nalan Yanran?"

"It has nothing to do with the three-year agreement."

Xiao Yan was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "The Azure Lotus Sitting Platform can speed up cultivation, and naturally it can also increase the speed of recovering Dou Qi. With this item's help, Ruoruo shouldn't have to worry about running out of Dou Qi and having difficulty recovering."

"."

Hun Ruoruo was stunned by Xiao Yan’s words, and then her face changed slightly, and she secretly clicked her tongue in annoyance.

This guy finally found it.
Hun Ruoruo felt somewhat helpless. She was forced to fight Xiao Yan in order to hide it from the leader of the snake people, which exposed her fatal flaw of slow recovery of Dou Qi. It was actually expected that she would be discovered by the other party.

Seeing that the matter could not be concealed, she sighed and simply said frankly:
"The Green Lotus Sitting Platform can indeed quickly restore Dou Qi, but the flaws in my technique don't come from the technique itself, but from my own faults. Therefore, this thing doesn't really have much effect on me, understand?"

However, Xiao Yan seemed to have an inexplicable obsession with giving gifts: "Even if the effect is not great, at least it has an effect, right?"

Even if you are very close to someone, if you owe them a lot, you will still feel ashamed in front of them.

It was just like his father, who had invested countless resources and efforts in Xiao Yan, always chose to escape and dodge intentionally or unintentionally before his talent returned. This was a manifestation of being ungrateful.

If he wanted to truly get close to her, he would naturally have to start by gradually breaking down this barrier. He was not one to grovel.
His liking is not humble either.
