"Enough! Stop howling."
"If you attract any Spirit Beasts, I'll throw you out as bait."
Bi Bi Dong held Ye Tian while continuing her death threats.
Ye Tian quickly shut his mouth.
A woman's heart was already as deep as the ocean, and this neurotic woman's thoughts were even more unfathomable.
As long as Bi Bi Dong didn't do anything reckless, everything was negotiable.
"Hmph!"
Bi Bi Dong lifted Ye Tian and quickly retreated toward the outskirts of Star Dou Great Forest.
"By the way, does your First Soul Skill have a name?"
"A name?"
Ye Tian grabbed his collar with both hands and raised his head.
The cold wind cleared his thoughts, and he quickly nodded with a smile.
"Yes, of course it does. It's called... Marrow Cleansing Elixir!"
"Marrow Cleansing Elixir?"
Bi Bi Dong repeated the name once before falling silent.
Meanwhile, Ye Tian smiled and lowered his gaze, opening his left palm where a milky white light surged forth accompanied by purple radiance.
A translucent Pill spun rapidly
As the Purple Ring rotated along with it.
Scattering rich Pill Fragrance in all directions.
Even Bi Bi Dong's cold, beautiful face seemed to warm slightly when touched by that fragrance.
Looking at his Martial Soul, Ye Tian said with a smile:
"Actually, I've also given my Martial Soul a name - Flawless Nascent Pill. A translucent, flawless Pill embryo that can be dyed any color... What do you think, teacher?"
"Acceptable."
Bi Bi Dong replied casually.
It was just a name. Even if he called it Jumping Pill, it would sound perfectly fine once Ye Tian became a Title Douluo. Just like Gluttonous Snake - if your strength isn't sufficient, even the best name would be taken from you.
Ye Tian glanced up at Bi Bi Dong and, seeing she had no interest in casual conversation, stopped speaking further.
He focused on activating his Martial Soul.
First Soul Skill, Marrow Cleansing Elixir, continuously activated!
Ye Tian's hand looked like it was holding a purple cheering light, constantly flashing.
Marrow Cleansing Elixir...
Of course, the more of these Pills the better - one should consume as many as possible.
Especially since there were no restrictions on storage.
And no need to worry about expiration dates.
Bi Bi Dong was dazzled by the purple light.
In her peripheral vision, Marrow Cleansing Elixirs appeared one after another.
Within moments.
Ye Tian's small hand was clutching a handful of Marrow Cleansing Elixirs.
His small face had turned slightly pale.
As a level 14 Soul Master, Ye Tian was nearly drained after using his First Soul Skill over a dozen times consecutively.
But he still wore an expectant smile.
Ye Tian was very curious.
What changes would occur when all the impurities in his body were completely removed!
Even though the Muscle and Marrow Cleansing effects of the Marrow Cleansing Elixir were actually quite weak compared to the entire human body, and this process might take years to complete.
Ye Tian was certain.
That day would eventually come!
After all, although the Marrow Cleansing Elixir's effects were weak, they didn't vary based on the amount of impurities in an individual's body.
Simply put...
The Muscle and Marrow Cleansing effect removed a fixed amount of impurities each time!
Ye Tian's face was full of anticipation.
Slowly raising his clenched hand, he opened his mouth.
Just as he was about to stuff them all in.
An awkward voice carrying both commanding tones and consultative phrasing.
Sounded beside Ye Tian's ear.
"Give me half."
"Uh, huh?"
Ye Tian's open mouth froze as he looked strangely at Bi Bi Dong.
"Teacher, did you just say something?"
"..."
Bi Bi Dong slightly tilted her neck upward, her beautiful face merging with the night.
Her face burned with embarrassment, her entire body feeling uncomfortable.
She never imagined there would come a day when she'd be asking Ye Tian for something.
But Bi Bi Dong understood clearly.
The Marrow Cleansing Elixir could ignore level restrictions.
It only worked on the physical body.
Long-term consumption would bring endless benefits to any Soul Master!
Especially for a Soul Master of Ye Tian's age.
If he could continue taking it, with his bones greatly improved, he might even maintain his breakthrough speed from lower levels when reaching higher levels!
This was the most terrifying aspect of Ye Tian's pill.
More fundamentally,
it invisibly enhanced a Soul Master's potential and talent.
After a moment of silence,
Bi Bi Dong maintained her deliberately aloof and cold demeanor, awkwardly saying:
"I said, give me half!"
"Ah?"
Ye Tian's mouth fell open.
Though he found it strange, he also felt it was reasonable.
Weren't pills always highly sought after?
Especially in the current Douluo world, where the pill market was practically a barren wasteland.
"Not acceptable?"
Bi Bi Dong lowered her gaze to stare at Ye Tian.
"No, of course not. This Soul Hunt was only successful thanks to teacher's help..."
Ye Tian quickly shook his head.
Then he deftly divided the fifteen Marrow Cleansing Elixirs into two portions,
handing eight of them over to Bi Bi Dong.
"These are all produced by my own Soul Skill anyway, not some rare treasure. They're not valuable, so sharing half with teacher is no problem at all."
Ye Tian said with a smile.
Internally, he felt helpless, hoping Bi Bi Dong wouldn't exploit him too harshly.
"..."
Bi Bi Dong silently accepted the eight Marrow Cleansing Elixirs.
Before Ye Tian could even relax, his breath nearly caught, his entire body tensing up.
Then, he collided with Bi Bi Dong's delicate frame,
his face meeting something remarkably elastic.
The impact left him somewhat dazed.
Ye Tian froze for a moment, inhaling her subtle fragrance, his cheek pressed against something soft.
Feeling an arm wrap around his waist...
Only then did he understand.
Bi Bi Dong had actually tucked him under her arm.
Ye Tian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed Bi Bi Dong wasn't going to be too extreme.
At least she knew to give him a more comfortable position.
It's just...
the lack of personal space was a bit too much, making it a little too comfortable.
Ye Tian's pitch-black, bright eyes glanced sideways at the delicate body pressed closely against him.
It wasn't exaggeratedly grand,
but for the current Ye Tian, it was still overwhelmingly oppressive!
"I won't take them for free. Name your price."
Bi Bi Dong's voice suddenly rang out, carrying a tone of negotiation.
She knew Ye Tian's supply was limited at this time.
Taking gifts makes one feel indebted; accepting favors makes one soft-spoken.
Bi Bi Dong was guilty of both, and even with her thick skin, she felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Name my price?"
Hearing this,
Ye Tian, who had been tilting his head to avoid Bi Bi Dong, suddenly bumped forward again.
Thump—!
Bi Bi Dong's swiftly moving body swayed, then gradually came to a stop.
The air grew silent.
In the distance, the low roars of Spirit beasts came intermittently.
Ye Tian, pressed against her through the clothing, didn't dare move, feeling as if needles were pricking his back...
He had the urge to swallow hard.
But Ye Tian knew that in such moments, the calmer he appeared, the safer he would be.
No other reason—
it was simply because he wasn't quite capable enough yet!
"Uh... teacher."
Ye Tian slowly swallowed, forcing himself to appear calm as he raised his head.
A somewhat mercenary, fawning expression appeared on his face as he said:
"How about... a friendship price? One Gold Soul Coin for one Marrow Cleansing Elixir?"
Hearing this,
Bi Bi Dong didn't have time to think it over.
Her originally cold gaze turned even icier.
"One Gold Soul Coin?!"
Bi Bi Dong looked at him as if he were already dead, a stunningly beautiful yet mocking smile appearing on her face.
She was well aware of the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Elixir.
It would likely take at least a year or two to see any results—just how much would she have to invest?
"Have you lost your mind over money, you brat?"
Bi Bi Dong's delicate frame trembled with anger as she glared fiercely at Ye Tian.
This damned kid.
All he ever spouted was nonsense wrapped in pretty words.
What "produced by my own Soul Skill" and "not worth much"—who did he think he was fooling?!
