Douluo Continent: Heaven rewards diligence, Tang San's defenses are breached by liver damage.

"Don't worry, Lingling, Xiaochuan is very capable. Since he said he can evolve the Nine Heart Begonia, he can definitely do it."

During the journey, Dugu Yan offered words of comfort once again.

"Don't worry, Yan Yan, I believe we can definitely lift the curse of the Nine Heart Begonia!" Ye Lingling nodded gently, her voice was cold but her tone was exceptionally firm.

The rapid change in her mood surprised Dugu Yan.

The girl turned around and suddenly noticed the lingering blush on Ye Lingling's ears and the slightly shimmering light in her eyes. She understood something and immediately smiled slyly, "Lingling, something's not right with you. Could it be that you're interested in Xiaochuan?"

"Eh?!"

Ye Lingling's delicate body trembled slightly, her cheeks flushed red, and she retorted in a low voice, "Yanyan, what are you saying? I'm just grateful to Lin Chuan."

"Really? You're being a bit hypocritical."

Dugu Yan's eyes were full of mockery, and she couldn't help but continue to tease him.

Even a fool could see that Ye Lingling, who was usually aloof, was being unusually proactive just now. It was clearly not as simple as she said she was thanking him. Moreover, the way she looked at Lin Chuan earlier was unmistakable.

Dugu Yan is well-qualified to speak on this matter.

After all, this wasn't the first time she'd seen similar looks; she herself had experienced the same.

"Yan Yan!" Ye Lingling was a little embarrassed and annoyed. She reached out and gently pinched Dugu Yan's arm to express her dissatisfaction.

"I was wrong, Lingling, please forgive me!"

Dugu Yan hurriedly begged for mercy, but her mocking smile only made Ye Lingling more embarrassed and annoyed.

The two beautiful girls playfully bickered, creating a lovely scene.

"Alright, alright, I'm not coming anymore!"

In the end, Dugu Yan chose to admit defeat.

Although her soul power was much higher than Ye Lingling's, it was impossible for her to actually use her soul power or even her martial soul to possess her when she was playing around with her friends.

Ye Lingling slowly stopped, slightly out of breath, her earlobes still bright red, whether from the strenuous exercise or some other reason was unknown.

Facing the cold breeze, Dugu Yan's red lips curved slightly, "Lingling, you don't need to be shy. In fact, I quite like Xiaochuan too."

Ye Lingling immediately fell silent.

The two best friends continued walking together.

"Lingling, you weren't scared, were you?" Dugu Yan suddenly chuckled. "I'm not asserting my dominance over you. Actually, even if you like Xiaochuan, I don't mind."

Ye Lingling: "!!!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling even lost control of her facial expressions.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Dugu Yan's expression was strange. She nudged Ye Lingling's arm with her shoulder, her gaze incredibly sincere. "We're best friends, and best friends should be together forever! Anyway, I don't mind. Lingling, why don't you consider it?"

The string of words left Ye Lingling somewhat at a loss.

Dugu Yan was not in a hurry; instead, she waited quietly.

If Ye Lingling really can't accept it, then there's nothing she can do.

After a while.

Ye Lingling slowly raised her head, her eyes calm and composed. "Stop saying such foolish things. Tell me about Lin Chuan instead!"

"it is good!"

Dugu Yan immediately smiled and nodded.

On the surface, they seem to be resisting, but their bodies tell a different story.

That's it!

With Ye Lingling's help, it would be more than enough to contend with the Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er sisters.

"A-choo! A-choo!! A-choo!!!"

After sneezing several times in a row, Lin Chuan rubbed his nose, his expression strange. "What's going on? Could it be that someone is talking about me behind my back again?"

Unable to figure it out, Lin Chuan stopped torturing himself.

……

a few days later.

After Tianshui College.

The lake water is crystal clear, as if it is untouched by any dust. The lakeside is lush and green, with many large trees and flowers and plants in full bloom.

Three wooden houses are also located not far from the lake.

At this moment, a figure could be seen standing under the shade of a tree, pacing back and forth.

Dugu Bo leaned against a tree, rolled his eyes, and couldn't help but complain in a deep voice, "Hey Lao Gu, can you shut up for a while? You've been going back and forth here for almost half an hour, and my eyes are getting tired."

"I'm just nervous, aren't I?"

Gu Yi didn't retort, but his face showed unease.

Hearing this, Dugu Bo felt even more helpless. "I already said I believe in Lin boy. Besides, why are you in such a hurry, old man? Look how calm your daughter and granddaughter are!"

He spoke lightly, but he seemed to have completely forgotten that he himself had been like this before.

Gu Yi glanced at Dugu Bo, but had no mood to respond.

That old poisoner, all he does is make sarcastic remarks.

"Alright, Grandpa, just say less!"

Dugu Yan spoke with a hint of helplessness.

call! !

Just then, a strong whirlwind suddenly arose in the wooden house where Lin Chuan was, instantly drawing everyone's attention and making them stare in astonishment at the scene before them.

The energy of heaven and earth began to surge and flow into the wooden house, and waves of energy fluctuations also surged forth.

"Wow, this little monster has caused way too much commotion!"

Dugu Bo took a deep breath, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

This was also his first time observing Lin Chuan's alchemy process. He had always kept a distance from him and thought it would be quite simple and easy. He never expected it to be so exaggerated. No wonder the pills that kid made were so effective. There was a reason for it.

And so, another half hour passed.

The strange phenomenon suddenly stopped; the energy of heaven and earth abruptly ceased, and there was no further movement, which undoubtedly puzzled the waiting crowd.

"Is it over? Was it a success or a failure?"

Gu Yi couldn't help but ask a question in a soft voice.

"How would I know?" Dugu Bo shook his head, his expression still relatively calm. "Calm down, we'll know when Lin comes out. Have some faith in this kid; he's created quite a few miracles so far."

Seemingly comforted, Gu Yi nodded quickly.

Just as he was about to say something, the energy of heaven and earth surged once again.

This time it was even more exaggerated than before. The surging energy of heaven and earth even formed a tidal phenomenon, converging into a huge vortex that rushed into the wooden house.

Even Dugu Bo's mouth gaped slightly, his eyes filled with shock.

What on earth is this kid doing?!

A full hour later, the disturbance caused by the energy of heaven and earth finally subsided again.

The door of the wooden house was suddenly pushed open, and a tall, slender figure slowly walked out, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the distance.

"Little friend Lin..."

Gu Yi hurriedly stepped forward, his lips moving slightly, his eyes revealing tension and anticipation.

Lin Chuan glanced at the crowd expressionlessly, then smiled, "I have accomplished my mission!"

"That's great!"

Everyone's face showed joy, especially the three generations of the Ye family, whose eyes were filled with bright, glistening tears of excitement.

"Mother, we have hope!"

Ye Lingling gripped Ye Rong's hand tightly, her body trembling slightly.

"Yes, perhaps we really can break the curse of the Nine Heart Begonia!" Ye Rong nodded, also somewhat overwhelmed with excitement.

Gu Yi went even further, grabbing Lin Chuan's shoulder and his face flushed with excitement.

"Young friend Lin, thank you so much. I truly don't know how to repay your great kindness to the Ye family..."

"Senior Gu, please don't get excited. It's just that the pill has been successfully refined. Whether it can solve the problem is still unknown for now. We can talk about these things later."

Dugu Bo chimed in, "Yeah, Lao Gu, you're so old and still so impetuous."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chuan rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Now you think you can say nice things?

So you weren't the one who was moved to tears in the Yin-Yang Well back then!
