Blue Silver Blooms, Clearing Away the Remaining Enemy

Xiao Xun Er returned with her God Defying Phoenix Flame perfected, and the camp instantly erupted in chaos—Karin tugged at Su Chen's arm, coquettishly demanding he strengthen her Blood Contract. Ning Rongrong circled Xiao Xun Er, marveling at the splendor of the Phoenix Flame, while Xiao Yi Xian curiously poked at the golden-red flames, only to stick out her tongue after being burned. Only Ah Yin stood beside the Blue Silver Grass, her fingertips gently twisting a blade of grass. Although the pale green Life Power surrounding her was purer than before, it still carried a trace of imperceptible stagnation.

Su Chen saw through her thoughts at a glance. He shook off Karin's clinginess, walked over to her side, and placed his palm on her shoulder. His black and gold God-Defying Power flowed gently: "Ah Yin, your Blue Silver Emperor Origin has not yet fully merged with the Life Power. Shall we return to the Spring of Life once more? I will accompany you."

Ah Yin looked up into his eyes, her clear gaze filled with a soft light, and nodded gently: "Okay. With you here, I always feel exceptionally at ease." She paused, her cheeks flushing a faint red, "And... I have something else I want to tell you."

Su Chen smiled and took her hand, then turned to instruct the other Sisters: "We are going to the Spring of Life to help Ah Yin stabilize her Origin. Zhu Zhuqing and Hanabi, continue to keep watch. Everyone else, stay in the camp to rest. When we return, I will help Karin strengthen her Blood Contract."

"Lord Su Chen is biased!" Karin puffed out her cheeks and stomped her foot, but she nodded obediently nonetheless, "Then hurry back, and don't you dare sneak off on a date for too long!"

The Sisters burst into laughter. Ah Yin's cheeks turned even redder, but she let Su Chen lead her away, walking under the moonlight toward the Spring of Life.

Upon arriving at the Spring of Life again, night mist shrouded the surface of the spring like a veil. The moonlight penetrated the thin mist, casting shimmering silver radiance onto the water. The surrounding Blue Silver Grass seemed to sense their master's presence; they gathered toward the edge of the spring, their vines intertwining to form a natural green curtain, isolating the two of them from the outside world.

"The Life Power here is even denser than before." Ah Yin walked to the edge of the spring and leaned down to touch the water. The cold sensation made her shiver, and Blue Silver Grass vines spread out from her palms, intertwining and resonating with the strands of energy in the spring water.

Su Chen helped her remove her outer dress, and his black and gold God-Defying Power transformed into a pale golden light barrier, shielding the spring area tightly: "Go in. This time, I will help you completely straighten out your Blue Silver Emperor Origin and make it perfectly compatible with the energy of the Spring of Life."

Ah Yin stepped obediently into the spring. The water rose past her waist, and the pale green Life Power surged into her body through her pores, causing the aura of the Blue Silver Emperor to gradually rise. She sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, and a pale green halo radiated from her body. The roots of the Blue Silver Grass at the bottom of the spring grew wildly, wrapping around her ankles and continuously channeling pure energy into her.

Su Chen also stepped into the spring and walked in front of her. He placed his palm on her dantian, his God-Defying Power intertwining with her Life Power: "Relax and let the energy flow through your meridians. I will help you purge the last trace of impurities from your Origin."

As the energy penetrated deeper, the feeling of stagnation in Ah Yin's body gradually dissipated. The aura of the Blue Silver Emperor became increasingly rich, and golden patterns began to appear within the pale green halo. She subconsciously leaned toward Su Chen, her back pressed tightly against his chest. The sensation of skin-to-skin contact made her cheeks burn and her breathing became rapid. Blue Silver Grass vines spread from her waist, wrapping around Su Chen's arms, Binding the two of them even tighter, as if acting coquettishly.

"Su Chen..." Ah Yin opened her eyes and turned to look at him, her gaze filled with reliance and deep affection. Her voice was as gentle as flowing spring water: "Ever since you broke the seal and saved me, I have known that the rest of my life should belong to you."

She raised her hand to caress Su Chen's cheek, and the Blue Silver Grass vines climbed up his chest, tightly Binding their bodies together so that there was not a sliver of space between their skin: "This is the Spring of Life that gave birth to me and raised me, and it is also the place where you gave me a new life. I want to promise you a future here—Su Chen, I want to have a baby with you. A baby who flows with our bloodline and can control both the Blue Silver Emperor and the God-Defying Power."

Su Chen's heart gave a sudden jolt. He looked down at the flushed face of the person in his arms, feeling the warm touch of the Blue Silver Grass vines, his black and gold gaze filled with sincerity and doting affection. He tightened his arms, pulling Ah Yin closer, and gently stroked her hair with his fingertips: "Okay. Once we overthrow Spirit Hall and break the shackles of the God Realm, we will retire to the Star Dou Great Forest, guard this Spring of Life, and raise a bunch of little Su Chens. I will stay with you, accompany the children, and watch the Blue Silver Grass grow year after year and the Spring of Life flow age after age."

Tears welled up in Ah Yin's eyes, and she took the initiative to stand on tiptoe and kiss Su Chen's lips. This kiss was gentle and lingering, carrying the sweet freshness of the spring water and the inseparable love between the two. The Blue Silver Grass vines grew wildly, wrapping the two of them into a green cocoon, where the Life Power and the God-Defying Power intertwined and circled, forming a warm halo.

Just as the two were immersed in their deep affection, the Blue Silver Grass on the periphery of the spring area suddenly shook violently, emitting a sharp warning. Su Chen's eyes turned cold. Without interrupting his embrace with Ah Yin, he simply flicked his fingers, and several Blue Silver Grass vines instantly shot out from the spring, probing toward the depths of the dense forest.

"Who is there?" Su Chen's voice carried a trace of chill, and his God-Defying Power quietly spread out.

Three black shadows darted out from the dense forest; they were the remaining enemies of Spirit Hall who had been lurking in the Star Dou Secret Realm. The leader was a Spirit Saint-level poison-type Spirit Master, who stared greedily at the two people in the spring: "I didn't expect to encounter the Blue Silver Emperor and Su Chen here! His Majesty the Supreme Pontiff has ordered us to capture the Blue Silver Emperor alive and seize the Origin of the God-Defying Power. This is a huge score!"

"Just by relying on you lot?" Ah Yin snorted coldly and stood up from Su Chen's embrace. The Blue Silver Grass vines instantly surged, and the vines, shimmering with golden patterns, acted like sharp blades as they swept toward the three Spirit Masters, "Daring to disturb Su Chen and me! Today, I shall let you be buried here in the Spring of Life!"

Su Chen stood behind Ah Yin, his black and gold God-Defying Power bolstering her: "Ah Yin, let them see just how strong our Blue Silver Emperor is."

Ah Yin nodded and channeled the Blue Silver Emperor Origin. The golden vines wove into a net, instantly trapping the three Spirit Masters. Seeing this, the poison-type Spirit Master immediately unleashed Poison Mist, attempting to corrode the Blue Silver Grass, but it was instantly purified by the Life Power overflowing from Ah Yin's body—the thoroughly stabilized Blue Silver Emperor Origin naturally suppressed all evil poisons.

"Impossible! How can Blue Silver Grass suppress my poison?" the poison-type Spirit Master shrieked in disbelief.

"Because this is the Life Domain of the Blue Silver Emperor." Ah Yin's eyes were cold, and the golden vines tightened violently, "In my Domain, your poison is completely useless!"

Su Chen waved his hand, and his black and gold God-Defying Power transformed into three sharp blades, precisely piercing the spirit power cores of the three Spirit Masters. The screams came to an abrupt end, and the bodies of the Spirit Masters were dragged into the dense forest by the Blue Silver Grass vines, becoming nutrients for the Spring of Life.

After dealing with the remaining enemies, Ah Yin turned and threw herself into Su Chen's arms, the Blue Silver Grass vines gently wrapping around his waist: "Su Chen, I did it. My Blue Silver Emperor can protect you now."

"I have always known you could." Su Chen lowered his head and kissed her forehead, his black and gold gaze filled with tenderness, "From now on, we will protect each other and protect our home together."
