She became a god

Xue Suimu, who was labeled a pervert by Ye Qingzhou, quieted down for quite a while, but their plan was slow to progress.

It turned out that Xue Suihan's health was too poor and her illness was recurring. Lin Jingxi stayed with her the whole time, so Lin Jingchuan had no chance to test her.

"We can't delay any longer." Lin Jingchuan was very annoyed. "We can't keep Zhoumei's identity a secret forever, and Lin Jiayou can't keep unaware of Lin Jiashu's death forever. If we can't keep it a secret from either side, we might not be able to escape."

Ye Qingzhou felt a pang of regret. "It seems my savings are going to be thinner."

Although he knew Ye Qingzhou was exaggerating, Lin Jingchuan still chimed in.

"Does Zhoumei have a plan? I'll have my dad pay the bill afterwards."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingzhou smiled and said, "Brother Chuan is magnanimous, and Uncle Lin is generous!"

"I possess the essence and blood of the Fire Phoenix, which can cure cold poison."

"You actually have such a good thing?" Lin Jingchuan couldn't help but be surprised.

The demon race reveres dragons and phoenixes. Humans who want to obtain phoenix blood essence must either offer sufficient benefits or possess sufficiently powerful strength.

A single drop of Phoenix essence blood can fetch a starting price of a thousand high-grade spirit stones at auction, and it is often difficult to find a buyer even if the price is right.

"Your top-grade fire spirit root isn't just a disguise using fire phoenix essence blood, is it?"

"Of course, how could I, a cultivator with wind and water spiritual roots, possibly actually be able to control fire?"

Lin Jingchuan rubbed his hands together. "Zhou-mei, given our relationship, could you give me a discount and sell me a few more drops?"

Do you think I'm a wholesale market?

Phoenix essence blood isn't something you can just find anywhere.

Ye Qingzhou shook his head, "Not for sale. I'll use one drop for the mission."

Do you have a bottle?

This time, it wasn't Lin Jingchuan who spoke up to ask the question, but Wen Xichun.

Her eyes were bright and sparkling with deep affection.

Remembering that Wen Xichun had always loved metallurgy and alchemy, and that the Fire Phoenix Essence Blood was a rare and precious item, he probably had the idea of ​​asking for a few drops.

Ye Qingzhou smiled wryly, "No, just three drops."

"so little?"

Lin Jingchuan immediately exclaimed in surprise.

He was used to Ye Qingzhou always casually pulling out a bunch of good things, and assumed that Ye Qingzhou must have a jar of Fire Phoenix Essence Blood. When he learned the truth, he was even more shocked than Wen Xichun.

Even three drops are hard-earned, and the important thing is that I got them for free!

Having obtained the essence of the Fire Phoenix for free, Wen and Lin were both intrigued.

"Zhou-mei, how did you get it? Would you mind telling me? If I get my hands on it, I'll share a drop with you." Lin Jingchuan couldn't hold back any longer and asked first.

Wen Xichun was happy to have someone scout ahead for her, so she remained silent and observed Ye Qingzhou's reactions and expressions.

Ye Qingzhou's face showed an unusual embarrassment. "Brother Chuan, you definitely can't do it."

"Why?"

"Ahem... Only women can do it."

"Huh?" Lin Jingchuan scratched his head. "There's a gender restriction?"

Ye Qingzhou bit her lip and whispered, "There's a fire phoenix that wants to find a husband. It has set up seven trials, and whoever passes all of them will become its wife."

"You have a wife...no...you have a husband?"

Lin Jingchuan's mouth was wide open, almost big enough to fit an egg.

Wen Xichun also looked gloomy, gazing at Ye Qingzhou with a somber expression.

"No...really no!"

Ye Qingzhou quickly waved his hand in denial and explained, "I did pass the seven trials, but the fire phoenix didn't like my type, so it gave me three drops of essence blood as compensation."

"I see. Zhou, you've found that every cloud has a silver lining."

Lin Jingchuan patted Ye Qingzhou on the shoulder, "You will definitely find a more suitable husband in the future."

"No need," Ye Qingzhou said with a smile. "I don't need a Daoist partner, nor do I need a lover."

"Then why did you participate in the Phoenix's marriage contest?"

Ye Qingzhou lowered her head shyly, and after a long while, she said, "They told me that if I won, I would get countless spirit stones, so I went to participate."

"So you were tricked into going on a blind date?"

Lin Jingchuan concluded, "Throughout the Six Realms, matchmakers' mouths are deceitful and unreliable!"

"They weren't matchmakers, they were just playing a trick on me."

"You're not a child, why are you playing tricks on me?"

"We were all just kids back then."

Lin Jingchuan sensed something was amiss and asked again, "How old were you when you participated in the marriage selection?"

"Ten and a half years old."

"...No wonder that fire phoenix rejected you."

A smile appeared on Wen Xichun's lips. A wife who married into the family at the age of ten and a half, tsk tsk, that's rare!

Realizing that the two of them were laughing at her, Ye Qingzhou glared at them. "Anyway, I definitely won't go on a blind date a second time, but you two might. Laughing at me now, you'll be worse off than me in the future."

"I won't."

Wen Xichun gripped the Karma Sword tightly in her hand and said firmly, "With no man in my heart, I will naturally draw my sword with divine power!"

[I almost forgot about Chun Jie's romantic entanglement with Lu Jin'an. For her, remaining unmoved and uninvolved with men is indeed the best course of action.]

"I don't know either," Lin Jingchuan chimed in. "It's better to enjoy something alone than to share it with others."

[Is this quote even real? Did Brother Chuan plagiarize someone else's famous saying?]

"You're making promises now, but in the future... tsk tsk!"

Ye Qingzhou glanced at them with a knowing look.

Wen Xichun didn't want to argue with her about this topic, so she reminded her, "When do you plan to take out the Fire Phoenix Essence Blood?"

"Now!"

"Then I'll ask my sister in a bit."

"I will keep watch in the shadows and keep watch for you."

After the division of labor was clearly defined, their tea party came to an end.

Ye Qingzhou suspected that she must have been a movie queen at some point in her life, otherwise how could she act so well?

With a silver tongue, she uttered a story that tricked the anxious Xue Hong into believing her lies, leading him to use the Fire Phoenix Essence Blood on Xue Suihan.

Facing Xue Hong, who was at the Nascent Soul stage, Ye Qingzhou remained calm and composed.

She certainly had the composure to remain calm, after all, she hadn't tainted the medicine.

Despite enduring the torment of cold poison for a long time, and being nourished by the essence of the Fire Phoenix, Xue Suihan was only slightly better than before; her constitution was still inferior to that of ordinary people.

Ye Qingzhou then used the halo of being his savior to continue her relationship with him.

Xuehong intended to bring them together, so he found a reason to ask Lin Jingxi to go back to her room to recuperate.

Lin Jingxi listened to his younger brother's retelling of what he had heard, remained silent for a long time, and then spoke.

"Please tell Miss Ye for me that I want to divorce Xue Suihan and leave Snow City. I will never regret it."

"If you remember, won't you regret it?"

If Lin Jingchuan were still that useless person with five spiritual roots, he probably wouldn't ask that question, and he wouldn't worry about the Forgetfulness Potion losing its effect.

But he himself turned his life around due to a great opportunity, so it's hard to say that his sister might not have the chance to regain her memories.

"No regrets!" Lin Jingxi said firmly. "You know my nature. I love with all my heart and hate with all my might. Now that I've forgotten, it means I will never love again."

"Sister, I will do everything in my power for you! Zhoumei and Wendao will also help!"

Lin Jingxi held her younger brother's hand and said earnestly, "Let's give it our all together!"
