45: Chapter 45 The bed I just bought burned again?

The improvement brought by the immortal herb was immense; only two and a half hours had passed, and both Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong had already awakened.

Before they even spoke, Ning Rongrong's favorability popped up.

"Ding... Ning Rongrong favorability +21, obtained Yellow Treasure Chest *3, Purple Treasure Chest *6, Black Treasure Chest *4"

"Ding... Ning Rongrong favorability is greater than or equal to 90"

"Bound Goddess: Ning Rongrong"

"Goddess Comprehensive Value: 96"

"Current Favorability: 94 (In love beyond control, unable to fit anyone else in her heart)"

"Binding Effect: The host can obtain 40% of the bound Goddess's daily Cultivation effect, without reducing the bound Goddess's Cultivation speed"

"Binding Skill 1: Support (Even if Ning Rongrong is not present, the host can use Ning Rongrong's Support skills (excluding Martial Soul Avatar) on themselves, but the effect is only 40% of Ning Rongrong's own usage)"

"Binding Skill 2: Slow (Using the skill can Slow enemies within a fifty-meter radius by 20%)"

"Binding Skill 3: Perception (When Ning Rongrong encounters danger within five hundred meters of the host, the host can immediately perceive her location)"

Ning Rongrong's goddess panel was right in front of Su Ling; breaking through to over 90 in one go, her favorability had increased quite a bit.

What surprised Su Ling was the Goddess Comprehensive Value, which had jumped from 93 to 96 instantly.

After taking the immortal herb, Ning Rongrong looked more confident and even prettier than before, and the biggest improvement was likely her potential.

With the comprehensive improvement in these aspects, her Goddess Comprehensive Value successfully reached 96 points.

"Ding... Zhu Zhuqing favorability +3, obtained Black Treasure Chest *1, Red Treasure Chest *2"

"Ding... Zhu Zhuqing favorability is greater than or equal to 96, 100% chance to obtain at least a Black Treasure Chest, high probability to obtain a Red Treasure Chest, low probability to obtain a Gold Treasure Chest."

...

"Bound Goddess: Zhu Zhuqing"

"Goddess Comprehensive Value: 96"

"Favorability: 98 (Never betray, willing to sacrifice everything for you)"

"Binding Effect: The host can obtain 50% of the bound Goddess's daily Cultivation effect, without reducing the bound Goddess's Cultivation speed."

"Binding Skill 1: Listen to Advice (Can be activated once a day, the bound Goddess has an 80% chance to follow the host's advice)"

"Binding Skill 2: Lucky (Passive skill, when Zhu Zhuqing is within five hundred meters of the host, the host can receive a decent luck bonus!)"

"Binding Skill 3: Perception (When Zhu Zhuqing encounters danger within one thousand meters of the host, the host can immediately perceive her location)"

"Binding Skill 4: Fusion (Unleash Martial Soul Fusion Skill by merging into the host's body, can be stacked with other Goddesses)"

The Fusion skill had finally appeared.

Su Ling had been looking forward to it, and now it was finally here; it turned out it required the Goddess's favorability to reach 96 or higher.

Zhu Zhuqing's Goddess Comprehensive Value also increased to 96, the same as Ning Rongrong's.

And with 98 favorability, never betraying, and being willing to sacrifice everything for him, this made Su Ling feel very reassured.

"Brother Su!" both girls shouted at the same time, their faces filled with undisguised joy.

"No rush, speak one by one."

"Rongrong, you go first," Zhu Zhuqing said.

Of the two, Ning Rongrong seemed the most excited, after all, that immortal herb just now was too important to her.

"Okay!"

"Brother Su, it's simply divine. My Soul Power has truly increased to level 37, and my, my, my Spirit has truly evolved! It evolved from the Seven, Seven, Seven Treasure... Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"

An excited Ning Rongrong was even stuttering!

After speaking, Ning Rongrong released her Spirit, and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared before Su Ling and Zhu Zhuqing!

The originally seven-storied pagoda had turned into nine stories!

"Brother Su, thank you!" After saying this, Ning Rongrong put away her Spirit and, unable to help herself, hugged Su Ling and kissed him!

Her 94 favorability made her unable to control herself, and even with Zhu Zhuqing right next to them, she still performed this action!

Zhu Zhuqing didn't say anything; after all, a favorability of over 90 was enough for her to accept that Su Ling had other women, not to mention her own favorability had already reached 98!

She just smiled slightly, looking at Su Ling with doting eyes, without a trace of dissatisfaction!

"Rongrong, no need to thank me!" Su Ling said.

Ning Rongrong said, "No, I must thank you, Brother Su."

"Rongrong, Zhuqing is still watching," Su Ling said again.

"Ah..."

In an instant, Ning Rongrong's face flushed red, and she immediately let go of Su Ling.

"Zhuqing, I, I was just too excited, please don't mind." Ning Rongrong said.

Zhu Zhuqing smiled and said, "It's fine, actually, I am just as excited as you are."

"Zhuqing, how much has your Soul Power increased?" Ning Rongrong asked.

"I have already reached level 38," Zhu Zhuqing said.

"What? Already level 38? It really is just as Brother Su said. Zhuqing, why do I feel like your panel looks even better than before, and you've become much prettier too?" Ning Rongrong suddenly said.

"Hmm, maybe so. Rongrong, you've also become even prettier," Zhu Zhuqing said.

Su Ling said, "The medicinal herbs you took still have a large portion of their effectiveness remaining in your bodies that hasn't been fully absorbed. If you Cultivate diligently in the future, your improvement will be even faster. Also, you've both taken the Intermediate Soul Power pills from before, right? Their effectiveness is no different from what you just took."

"You should both strive to reach the Spirit Ancestor rank within three months," Su Ling said.

"Brother Su, I will definitely work hard," Ning Rongrong said.

"Me too!" Zhu Zhuqing said.

"It's getting late, you should both go back and Cultivate for a while to consolidate your Soul Power," Su Ling said. It wasn't that he didn't want to keep them, but it was getting late, and he still had to go to Liu Erlong's place.

At this, Zhu Zhuqing looked at Su Ling, and Ning Rongrong walked out very obediently.

And Zhu Zhuqing also hugged Su Ling; since Ning Rongrong had done it, how could she be left out?

Five minutes later, Zhu Zhuqing walked out with a blushing face and left with Ning Rongrong.

But not long after they left, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but say, "Zhuqing, is Brother Su that fast?"

"Rongrong, what are you saying? We were just purely, um... it's not what you think," Zhu Zhuqing said.

Ning Rongrong said, "That's good. If it was all over in five minutes, what would happen to your happiness in the future, Zhuqing?"

"Rongrong, are you looking for a beating?"

"Ah, no, no! I was wrong, Zhuqing, don't tickle me!"

"But having said that, Rongrong, do you also like Brother Su?" Zhu Zhuqing suddenly said seriously.

"Ah... Zhuqing, I, I didn't mean to, it's just that I don't know why, it just happened... You can rest assured, I am your best sister, I won't fight with you for him," Ning Rongrong said.

"Rongrong, that's not what I meant."

"Someone as good as Brother Su, I feel like you wouldn't find a second one in this Douluo World, and he's so talented. Not just you and me, I estimate that many other women will like Brother Su in the future."

"So, rather than having other women, it would be better to have another good sister, don't you think?"

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ning Rongrong after saying this.

Her 98 favorability made her start thinking for Su Ling in everything.

"Ah, Zhuqing, do you really think so?" Ning Rongrong said shyly.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded and said, "If I didn't think so, why would I talk to you about this? How about it, Rongrong, what do you think?"

"I... I don't have a problem with it. It's just my father's side, um... I think it should be fine too," Ning Rongrong said.

"That's good!" Zhu Zhuqing said.

"Thank you, Zhuqing," Ning Rongrong said. Zhu Zhuqing's words undoubtedly untied a knot in her heart.

She was afraid she couldn't control herself, and that in the future, she might harbor hatred toward Zhu Zhuqing because of it.

Now it was better; Zhu Zhuqing had brought it up herself, and all problems were solved.

After her Soul Power reached level 37, Ning Rongrong couldn't wait to return to the Sect to show off to Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo.

But now, she thought it would be better to wait a bit.

Wouldn't it be better to return when she reached the Spirit Ancestor rank?

The two girls returned to their dormitory and began to Cultivate to consolidate their Soul Power.

At this time, Su Ling had already arrived at Liu Erlong's cabin.

"Sister Liu, I'm here," Su Ling said.

"The door isn't locked, come in," Liu Erlong said.

"I'm here to fix your bed. This bed is guaranteed to be sturdy," Su Ling said.

After entering, Su Ling found that Flender was sitting at the table in the cabin's living room.

"Fix what bed? Su Ling, why are you still so disrespectful?"

As soon as he entered, Flender scolded Su Ling.

Liu Erlong said, "Flender, Su Ling hasn't done anything wrong, what's the problem?"

"What's this about fixing a bed?" Flender asked immediately.

"I accidentally broke my wooden bed while Cultivating last night, so I asked Su Ling to help me buy a new one today," Liu Erlong finally replied.

"Are you injured?" Flender noticed that Liu Erlong was walking a bit differently today, as if she was uncomfortable.

"Uh, a small injury. I didn't control my Soul Power well while Cultivating and got distracted," Liu Erlong said.

"Sigh, you still can't forget Xiaogang. He's already like that. I really didn't expect him to be this kind of person before, otherwise, I wouldn't have let you..."

"Erlong, in any case, you don't need to think about him anymore. Next time I meet him, I must beat him up to vent your anger," Flender said.

"No need, that's not important anymore. Su Ling and I have things to do here, you should go back first," Liu Erlong said, directly chasing him away.

"Erlong, you... what could you two possibly have to do? Isn't it just fixing a bed? Su Ling, hurry up," Flender said.

"Alright!" Without saying anything else, Su Ling walked in.

At this moment, the broken bed in the room had already been cleared by Liu Erlong, and Su Ling took out the bed from his spirit tool and started to install it.

"Erlong, are you really not going to reconsider our relationship?" While Su Ling was installing the bed, Flender expressed his feelings to Liu Erlong again.

"Boss Fu, I've said it many times. We are best friends, but that aspect is absolutely impossible. It wasn't possible before, it's not possible now, and it will be even more impossible in the future," Liu Erlong said resolutely.

Hearing what Liu Erlong said, Flender was dejected and very disappointed.

Liking is liking, not liking is not liking; from beginning to end, Liu Erlong had never considered Flender.

"Alright, I understand. Since that's the case, I won't bring it up again in the future," Flender said.

After saying this, Flender pushed open the door and left. With Su Ling here, he didn't think much of it.

After all, everyone knew about Su Ling and Zhu Zhuqing's relationship, and the gap between Su Ling and Liu Erlong was too large; it was impossible for them to be together.

Little did he know, the distance between the two was already negative.

Su Ling had thought before that if Liu Erlong really liked Flender, he might let Liu Erlong go to fulfill Flender and Liu Erlong, after all, Flender had been kind to him.

But Liu Erlong had never liked Flender, so he couldn't be blamed.

Now that Liu Erlong was his, he couldn't let her go even more.

"Alright!"

"Sister Liu, you can come and see. This bed is absolutely sturdy, it won't break no matter what," Su Ling said loudly.

Liu Erlong took a look and said, "It's alright, isn't that up to you?"

"You said you would bring me an Opportunity tonight, what is it? If you dare to lie to me, watch out I..."

As she spoke, Liu Erlong glanced at little Su Ling, wearing a meaningful, 'you know what I mean' smile, which made Su Ling couldn't help but take a step back.

"Sister Liu, this is nothing to joke about. Come, sit on the bed first, and I will feed you the Opportunity."

"Hey, I'm not eating that of yours tonight," Liu Erlong pouted.

"What are you thinking? This is what I'm giving you to eat."

He took the dragon flame flower out of the System space. Just taking it out made the space in the entire room feel somewhat scorching.

"What is this?" Liu Erlong said.

Su Ling said, "This is a medicinal herb. It is said to be a rare herb that can only grow in the place where a Fire Dragon fell. It is especially useful for you; it can increase your potential while also improving your Soul Power."

"Really?" Liu Erlong licked her lips as she looked at the scarlet flower in Su Ling's hand.

"Alright, I'll listen to you," Liu Erlong said.

Sitting on the bed, Liu Erlong opened her mouth directly, letting Su Ling feed it to her.

When the dragon flame flower entered her mouth, Liu Erlong felt something unusual, making her feel as if her body was being burned by fire.

Before long, her fire-attribute Soul Power erupted, and flames radiated from her body.

Damn!

The bed I just bought, burned again?

It was sturdy, but it couldn't withstand such flames.

Not only the bed, but the entire cabin started to burn along with it.

This was Su Ling's mistake; the System didn't say that taking this dragon flame flower would have such an effect.

Su Ling immediately retreated, and at this time, Liu Erlong's Fire Dragon Spirit had already manifested, resembling a fire dragon coiling within it.

This forced Flender, who had just left not long ago, to return.

"Erlong, you..."

"Su Ling, what's going on?" Flender asked anxiously, fearing that Liu Erlong was in danger.

"Dean, it's fine. This is Sister Liu's Opportunity. From now on, her Fire Dragon will soar to the sky," Su Ling said.

"Soar to the sky?" Flender looked doubtfully at Liu Erlong, who had transformed into a fire dragon; it was indeed extraordinary.

"An Opportunity, huh?"

"Dean, in the future, I will give you an Opportunity as well," Su Ling said. He couldn't forget Flender's kindness. Although it was the kindness toward his predecessor, this was a debt he should repay for his predecessor.

Not to mention that when he was absorbing his spirit ring, Flender had guarded him with his life, along with Zhao Wuji.

It could be said that without them, Su Ling might have fallen in the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Alright, I'll wait and see what kind of Opportunity you can give me," Flender said.

Su Ling glanced at the System's treasure chests and decided to open a few now to try his luck.

Remaining unopened treasure chests: White *100, Yellow *31, Purple *14, Black *9, Red *3.

He could make 4 Red Treasure Chests!

"System, exchange ten Purple Treasure Chests for one Black Treasure Chest, then exchange the Black Treasure Chests for a Red Treasure Chest, and finally open all four Red Treasure Chests."

"Ding... Successfully exchanged 10 Purple Treasure Chests for one Black Treasure Chest"

"Ding... Successfully exchanged 10 Black Treasure Chests for one Red Treasure Chest"

"Ding... Opened four Red Treasure Chests, obtained strange velvet sky-chrysanthemum *1, 100,000-year spirit ring *2, Top-tier Spirit *1."

The Red Treasure Chests were opened. Su Ling took a look at the four items. The strange velvet sky-chrysanthemum went without saying; it was an immortal herb.

He looked at the other two.

"100,000-year spirit ring: Similar to the god-bestowed spirit ring, the age can be determined based on the person absorbing it, up to 100,000 years. Produced by the System, must be high quality."

These last eight words seemed very authoritative.

"Top-tier Spirit: Can be used by anyone, can generate a Spirit that is relatively suitable for the user."

"Good, worthy of being a Red Treasure Chest, all good things."

Looking at the strange velvet sky-chrysanthemum, Su Ling had an idea. This thing was suitable for attack system Spirit Masters.

It could be used to repay the life-saving grace of Flender and Zhao Wuji in the Spirit Beast Forest.

Repaying kindness and even more so repaying grudges was one of Su Ling's principles for living!

Amidst the flames, Liu Erlong's Spirit seemed to be undergoing a change, appearing to have an unusual momentum.

Could it be that this dragon flame flower could also evolve Liu Erlong's Spirit?

"Dean, the flames are soaring to the sky here, someone from the academy is bound to come. Do you want to go and stop them? We can't disturb Sister Liu's Cultivation," Su Ling suggested.

"Right, you're correct. I'll go immediately. Su Ling, Guard Erlong well," Flender immediately set off, leaving Su Ling alone.

"Alright, I will definitely Guard her well," Su Ling also replied.
