Chapter 31: Blue Demon Flame

Mu Yudie indeed did not speak again.

She really didn't talk, and Di Yalan and Shi Yan instead felt awkward, looking at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"It's almost dawn." Shi Yan looked up at the sky, making small talk: "How is your body? How much essence has been restored?"

"Not only has it all been restored, but it has also improved."

Di Yalan secretly checked, her eyes suddenly brightening, and she blushed, whispering: "Just now, just now it seemed... it seemed a force entered my body. That strange force merged into my essence and even changed the area around my chest..."

She frowned, slowly recalling, vaguely feeling that the strange force seemed to have flowed out from the essence Shi Yan had injected into her body.

Shi Yan was stunned, muttering to himself: "As expected..."

Di Yalan's beautiful eyes sparkled, staring at him intently, "Is it related to you?"

Nodding, Shi Yan smiled and explained: "I consumed many pills from an alchemist, which I haven't digested yet. Most of the medicinal power is still in my body. Just now... part of that power was released and entered your body."

Absorbing the essence of the dead was too bizarre and evil, and Shi Yan didn't want anyone to know this secret, so he used Karu as a scapegoat, attributing the strange force to a peculiar pill.

"This pill must be very precious." Di Yalan nodded, not doubting it. She had already guessed that Shi Yan was related to an alchemist from his use of poison powder on the journey.

"Yes, it should be very precious." Shi Yan smiled, not explaining his relationship with Karu. He thought for a moment, frowned, and asked with a strange look: "You said a force seemed to change the tendons and flesh around your chest. Can you try to sense it and see what changes there are?"

Shi Yan suddenly remembered the awakening of his "Stone Soul" in his body. That strange force, besides enhancing essence, seemed to also trigger the awakening of a soul.

His never-before-manifested "Stone Soul" suddenly awakened under the influence of that force. Even the appearance of the "Undying Soul" might be related to that strange force. When Di Yalan mentioned changes in her chest, he immediately had a hunch.

"I'll try." Di Yalan nodded slowly, focusing her attention on the changes in her chest.

With a thought, threads of essence flowed into the area between her breasts. The essence circled around the tender flesh in the valley between her breasts for a while, seemingly undergoing a strange transformation, as if it had been converted, suddenly becoming scorching hot.

Di Yalan's expression changed, and she quickly directed the essence to flow into her arm, following the tendons to her right palm.

"Boom!"

A clump of blue-green flame suddenly burst from Di Yalan's palm. The flame emitted intense heat, only the size of a fist, flickering in her palm, illuminating the tree hollow like a surging blue sea.

"Ah!"

Di Yalan gasped, her eyes shining brightly, and she stood up abruptly.

Indeed, it's true!

Shi Yan's heart cried out, his eyes narrowing slightly, finally confirming that the strange force could indeed trigger the awakening of a warrior's soul!

"Blue Demon Flame!"

Di Yalan screamed in surprise, her excited voice trembling, her eyes sparkling, and she spoke incoherently: "This is our family's soul! I know, this is our family's soul! Since my grandfather, no one in our family has inherited the 'Blue Demon Flame' soul. Oh my God! How is this possible?"

Mu Yudie had already woken up and was staring at Di Yalan in disbelief, her face full of astonishment, "How is this possible? Lan, you're already twenty-seven, how can your soul suddenly awaken? What's going on? Am I seeing things?" She rubbed her eyes hard, still finding it hard to believe.

"Ha!" Di Yalan's body trembled with happiness, unable to express her joy, her eyes fixed on the blue-green flame in her palm, her eyes gradually moistening.

She was overwhelmed with joy...

Shi Yan could understand her feelings.

On the Divine Grace Continent, warriors with souls have a significant advantage in battle and greater prospects for development. Souls are more valuable to warriors than anything else. Warriors without souls dream of having one.

For someone like Di Yalan, whose ancestors had souls but whose descendants did not inherit them, the lack of a soul is a disgrace!

This situation can even lead a once-glorious family to gradually decline!

Souls are extremely important, whether for a family or an individual.

"What exactly happened?" Mu Yudie, who had been in a daze for a long time, ignored the ecstatic Di Yalan and looked at Shi Yan.

"Uh..." Shi Yan smiled bitterly, "It's hard to explain. It's related to the strange medicinal power in my body. I don't know what kind of pill it is, but the power is indeed peculiar. Don't look at me like that, I really don't know much."

"Brat, thank you, thank you!" The flame in Di Yalan's hand disappeared, and she suddenly hugged Shi Yan, as if trying to squeeze herself into his body, her body trembling with excitement.

Her prominent chest deformed under the pressure against Shi Yan's chest, making him secretly pleased, and he gradually had a physiological reaction.

Di Yalan immediately noticed, blushing and letting go of Shi Yan, her eyes full of allure, and she whispered, "You, you're so naughty."

"Heh heh." Shi Yan laughed dryly, not responding.

Mu Yudie glared at the two, annoyed, "I'm still here, don't you two keep giving me these spicy scenes, okay?"

"Brat, I'm just too happy." Di Yalan laughed and scolded.

"What exactly happened?" Mu Yudie was desperate.

"I don't know either." Di Yalan shook her head, her eyes still filled with joy, and she smiled, "It's all because of him."

"Your meaning is... you and he did it, and your soul, which hadn't awakened in twenty-seven years and might never awaken, suddenly awakened?" Mu Yudie's face was as strange as it could be.

"Although it's hard to believe, it's the truth." Di Yalan blushed, admitting it.

"His, his thing, is it the juice of a divine-level pill?" Mu Yudie's face also turned red, and she shook her head hard, "I don't believe it! This doesn't make any sense!"

"Cough, cough..." Shi Yan looked at the tree hollow entrance and said, "It's already dawn, we should set off."

"Right, we should set off." Di Yalan clearly didn't want to dwell on this matter, to avoid Mu Yudie saying something embarrassing.

After saying this, Di Yalan hurriedly climbed to the tree hollow entrance and threw a rope down to the bottom, urging Mu Yudie to hurry up.

"I don't believe it!" Mu Yudie was still fixated on the matter, shaking her head hard, and only then reached out to grab the rope.

With Di Yalan's help, Mu Yudie's body slowly rose toward the tree hollow entrance.

"Ah, bastard, what are you doing!" Mu Yudie suddenly screamed, kicking her legs wildly, her body swaying in mid-air.

"Helping you." Shi Yan held her buttocks with both hands, pushing her up, and smiled, "This way, you can do it more easily."

"No! Let go! I don't need your help!" Mu Yudie screamed loudly, her body swaying violently, and she suddenly fell from mid-air as she let go of the rope.

"Thud!"

The two fell into the tree hollow together.

Shi Yan lay on the ground, enjoying the moment, with Mu Yudie sitting on his waist, her legs still kicking, shouting, "Let go! Let go!"

Mu Yudie quickly regained her composure, her eyes misty, looking like she was about to cry, "Lan, he's bullying me! This bastard is bullying me!"

"Shh!" Di Yalan's expression was serious, and she made a gesture to be quiet from above.

Shi Yan stood up abruptly, instantly forgetting the intimate scene in the tree hollow. He climbed up the tree hollow nimbly, standing shoulder to shoulder with Di Yalan, and calmly asked, "What's the situation?"

"There's a beast!"
