The Soul Essence Purple Ginseng in front of me is about a foot tall, with a deep purple main stem, like amethyst that has been precipitated by time, gleaming with a profound luster.
Several branches branching off from the main trunk are slender yet resilient, adorned with a few palm-sized leaves whose deep purple veins are clearly visible and shimmer with a faint fluorescence in the dim light.
What's most special is the root of the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng. The place where it takes root seems to be assimilated, exuding a mysterious purple aura.
You Yueying's gaze was fixed on the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng. She could clearly sense that the power contained in this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng was the kind of nourishment that her damaged soul needed most.
After all, the Soul Nourishing Jade that Qin Luo had previously taken out had the effect of nourishing the soul and could, to a certain extent, nourish the weak parts of the soul, allowing the soul to be improved imperceptibly.
However, the spiritual effects contained in this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng are far superior to those of the Soul Nourishing Sacred Jade. By simply using the essence of this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng, You Yueying can replenish a significant portion of the divine soul that has dissipated over the past thousand years during the process of refining and absorbing it, greatly improving its current damaged state.
Seeing You Yueying's reaction, Qin Luo was secretly delighted, knowing that he had made the right move.
He said with a smile:
"Senior, this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng grows in ancient burial grounds, rooted in soil where yin and spiritual energy intertwine. Its essence can repair damaged soul structures and fill in missing parts of the soul, which is of great help to your current state of a remnant soul."
He then handed the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng to You Yueying as he spoke, "This is why I took the risk. I know that only it might be able to truly help you."
Hearing his words, You Yueying raised her head and gave Qin Luo a deep look. Besides the extreme longing in her eyes, there was also a hint of clarity:
"I'm not like that girl, easily bewitched by your sweet talk and sugar-coated bullets."
You Yueying narrowed her eyes, her sharp gaze, as cold as stars, revealing an undisguised glint of cunning. She stared silently at Qin Luo, as if trying to see right through him.
"However, this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng is indeed something I urgently need. As for what you said before, I know how much of it was true and how much was false, and how much of it was exaggerated."
"But I can truly feel the immense power contained within this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng." As she said this, her gaze fell once again on the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng that emitted a mysterious purple light, and an uncontrollable longing flashed in her eyes.
Then, a small misty hand slowly condensed and reached towards the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng. However, just as it was about to touch the ginseng, it stopped abruptly.
That gaze fell upon Qin Luo once more, like that of a hawk, scrutinizing him from head to toe, not missing a single subtle change in expression. That look seemed to want to dissect Qin Luo completely.
A moment later, You Yueying's tone carried an undeniable air of authority as she warned again, enunciating each word clearly:
"Qin Luo, I advise you to put away those little thoughts and stop wasting your energy on me. I'm not an innocent girl who hasn't seen much of the world; I won't be easily swayed by your sweet words and this so-called treasure."
"I accepted this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng simply because it's useful to me, nothing more. If you truly want to help me, then focus on doing your own thing and don't try to outsmart me."
"So put away your unrealistic ideas and focus your mind on spiritual practice!"
Before I could even say anything, she got impatient...
This reaction was quite unexpected. However, upon closer reflection, it seems this was the first time she had called out her own name.
Qin Luo pondered to himself, a barely perceptible smile creeping onto his lips. It seemed the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng wasn't entirely useless; at least judging from her unusual behavior, it had had some effect.
This incident further confirmed Qin Luo's arrogant personality. Normally, she always maintained a haughty and unpredictable demeanor.
But now, under the "stimulation" of the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng, Qin Luo felt another side of her. Beneath her arrogance, there seemed to be a hint of haughtiness.
Like a child who says one thing but means another, secretly longing for something but refusing to admit it, and insisting on putting on a tough front.
Didn't you know that the arrogant character was already removed from the game?
Qin Luo chuckled inwardly, but he couldn't afford to dwell on such things at the moment. After all, this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng was merely the first step in his trap; many carefully prepared follow-up moves were yet to be unleashed.
However, after gradually figuring out her personality, Qin Luo's mind raced, and he reorganized his next plan.
Every detail and every step was meticulously planned and rehearsed in his mind, striving for absolute certainty. After all, the upcoming actions were of paramount importance and could not afford the slightest mistake.
When Qin Luo met You Yueying's gaze again, her eyes had once again turned into a pool of deep, stagnant water. Since you want me to behave myself, then I will "obey" your request.
She's a bit of a tsundere, those who understand will understand. Just go along with her wishes, she'll eventually...
Upon hearing this, Qin Luo first showed a struggle on his face, then seemed to have figured something out, took a deep breath, and said weakly:
“Senior’s teachings are wise, and I will keep them in mind. I was not thoughtful enough before, and from now on I will focus my mind on cultivation and no longer do things that would bother you.”
Looking into Qin Luo's deep pupils, You Yueying's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible hint of satisfaction, while she subconsciously let out a sigh of relief.
"That would be best, so you can focus on your spiritual practice, which will also be good for you."
As soon as she finished speaking, You Yueying raised her hand and waved it. The Soul Essence Purple Ginseng was instantly enveloped by a thick black mist, and then slowly absorbed into the black mist.
Then she frowned, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes, and after a moment of contemplation, she slowly said:
"During this period, I need to focus all my energy on refining this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng. It's best if you don't open the restriction during this time. Otherwise, if something happens, I'm afraid I won't be able to come out to help you immediately. After all, as this Soul Essence Purple Ginseng nourishes my remnant soul, my strength will gradually recover to some extent. At that time, I will have enough power to take action for a period of time, but the prerequisite is that the restriction is not opened!"
You Yueying frowned, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes, her gaze fixed on Qin Luo, as if she wanted to get a positive answer from his eyes.
Qin Luo immediately patted his chest and assured him, "Senior, rest assured, I understand the implications. This time, when you refine the Soul Essence Purple Ginseng, I will strictly abide by the rules and will never open the restriction again without authorization."
"However, I have another question to ask, and I wonder if you would be so kind as to grant me permission?"
