Douluo Continent: Starting with Self-Created Soul Rings

Time flowed on and on within Tang Yuehua's aristocratic circle.

Gu Ziyi and Bai Lu were not in a hurry at all because they were in the domain.

After a while, Tang Yuehua's face turned pale.

Maintaining her talent in this area is clearly very taxing on her.

Moreover, exhausting one's soul power is not a simple matter; it is a very painful one.

After a while, Tang Yuehua's face became even paler, and her delicate face was covered with fine sweat, making her look pitiful.

Seeing her cousin in this state, Bailu couldn't help but want to go over to her.

Gu Ziyi managed to pull Bai Lu back in time and then shook his head at her.

If you were to touch Tang Yuehua at this moment, it would likely interrupt the release of her domain, and all of Tang Yuehua's efforts would be in vain.

Seeing this, the egret could only suppress its anger.

hum-

Finally, after another ten seconds or so, the talent domain that had been surrounding them automatically dissipated, and Tang Yuehua swayed and fell backward.

sigh~

With a flash, Bai Lu appeared behind Tang Yuehua and helped her up.

"cousin……"

After helping Tang Yuehua up, Bailu quickly called out to her.

"I...I'm fine..."

With Bai Lu's help, Tang Yuehua managed to stand up and weakly responded.

"How is it? Have you exhausted your soul power?"

A hint of heartache flashed in Gu Ziyi's eyes, but Gu Ziyi was more concerned about whether Tang Yuehua had exhausted her soul power.

"……Um!"

Tang Yuehua looked at Gu Ziyi, a self-satisfied smile appearing on her lips after her hard work.

"Do you still have the strength? Why don't you rest for a bit before trying to cultivate again?"

Gu Ziyi responded with a slight smile.

"...No, I want it now!"

Tang Yuehua shook her head, her voice weak but firm.

……

Chapter 18: Giving My First Kiss

After recovering a little, Tang Yuehua disregarded her weakness and eagerly began to try cultivating.

Gu Ziyi and Bai Lu could only watch from the sidelines.

Bai Lu's breathing was somewhat rapid, seemingly even more nervous than Tang Yuehua, who was attempting to cultivate.

Bai Lu clenched her fists, her eyes fixed on Tang Yuehua. She truly hoped that Tang Yuehua could succeed this time.

Gu Ziyi naturally hoped that Tang Yuehua would succeed.

Under the watchful eyes of Gu Ziyi and Bai Lu, Tang Yuehua, who was attempting cultivation, suddenly became somewhat excited.

Tang Yuehua couldn't contain the joy that radiated from within.

Gu Ziyi and Bai Lu, who were watching from the side, knew that Tang Yuehua had succeeded, because Tang Yuehua was generating a suction force that was constantly absorbing energy from the outside world.

This is the state of entering meditation practice!

"It's...it's a success..."

"It really worked..."

Bai Lu was extremely excited, but afraid of disturbing Tang Yuehua, so she reached out and tightly grabbed Gu Ziyi's arm beside her.

Seeing that Tang Yuehua was able to cultivate, she was just as excited and happy as Tang Yuehua herself.

"Don't get too excited yet, it's not certain whether it's really resolved!"

Gu Ziyi felt a sharp pain from Bai Lu's grip, so he quickly broke free and grabbed her hands to prevent her from moving around, while calmly persuading her.

Bai Lu was taken aback upon hearing this and looked at Gu Ziyi with confusion.

"She can cultivate now. While absorbing energy and converting it into soul power, her innate domain will also be restored. It's still uncertain what will happen next..."

Gu Ziyi explained.

"Ah..." Bai Lu gasped softly upon hearing this, and when she tried to cover her mouth with her hand, she realized that Gu Ziyi had grabbed her hand. Her face flushed slightly, and she quickly tried to break free.

"So don't get too excited yet, let's see how Tang Yuehua's cultivation progresses!"

After releasing Bai Lu, Gu Ziyi whispered something again.

"Ok!"

Bai Lu gave a soft "hmm," then turned her head back to watch Tang Yuehua, who was cultivating.

Gu Ziyi and Bai Lu were still worried that Tang Yuehua's cultivation might encounter problems again, but Tang Yuehua, who was cultivating, had no such worries at all.

Or perhaps she simply couldn't imagine that problems might arise.

At this moment, Tang Yuehua was completely immersed in the excitement of cultivation.

Immersed in that wonderful feeling of oneness with the soul.

After cultivating for a while and being completely certain that she could actually cultivate, Tang Yuehua stopped cultivating and opened her excited eyes.

After opening her eyes, Tang Yuehua saw Gu Ziyi.

Overwhelmed with excitement, Tang Yuehua, upon seeing Gu Ziyi, impulsively stood up and lunged at him with open arms.

Baji~

Tang Yuehua kissed Gu Ziyi directly on the cheek, giving him her first kiss.

"Gu Ziyi, thank you!"

"Thank you so much!"

After giving him her first kiss, Tang Yuehua continued to hug Gu Ziyi tightly, burying her head in his chest and expressing her gratitude.

"..."

Upon seeing Tang Yuehua get up, Bai Lu, who had originally wanted to hug and celebrate with her, froze in place.

Bai Lu is confused. Could it be that my cousin has fallen for Gu Ziyi?

This is not possible!

"Cousin, what are you doing?"

Realizing something was wrong, Bai Lu quickly stepped forward and pulled Tang Yuehua away from Gu Ziyi.

"what……"

"Cousin, I... I was just too excited..."

Tang Yuehua, who had been pulled up by the egret, realized how embarrassing her actions were and quickly explained, blushing.

And she kept her head down, not daring to look at Gu Ziyi.

"Humph……"

Bai Lu snorted in exasperation, then turned to Gu Ziyi and warned, "Gu Ziyi, my cousin was just thanking you. Don't overthink it!"

Her cousin is the daughter of the sect leader of Haotian Sect, someone Gu Ziyi is not worthy of.

She admitted that Gu Ziyi was very smart and capable, but Gu Ziyi was ultimately just an ordinary soul master with only level 1 innate soul power.

"I know!" Gu Ziyi smiled faintly, unaffected by Bai Lu's words, and turned to Tang Yuehua, saying, "Tang Yuehua, try again now and see if you can continue cultivating."

"Ah...why?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua forgot all about being shy and quickly raised her head.

"That's right, cousin, why don't you try cultivating again..."

Bai Lu then explained the situation that Gu Ziyi had just mentioned on Gu Ziyi's behalf.

"...Okay, I'll try it now!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua's face immediately turned somewhat flustered, and she quickly nodded.

Then Tang Yuehua immediately sat cross-legged to prepare to try again.

Then Tang Yuehua quickly opened her eyes, her eyes brimming with tears: "I...I can't cultivate anymore..."

"Gu Ziyi, what... what should I do?"

Tang Yuehua panicked completely and almost burst into tears. She could only anxiously seek help from Gu Ziyi.

"Gu Ziyi!"
