Dragon King Hall's Legend

"It really is a Divine Plant..."

Xilin saw the Three-Leaf Youlian released by Mu Jinyu, her crimson eyes sparkling with excitement, almost glued to the plant, unable to look away.

"Ha!"

Out of instinct, Xilin wanted to release her True Yuan and Spiritual Thought, preparing to refine the Divine Plant and see if she could subdue it.

But her actions did not elicit any response at all.

Only then did she remember that her cultivation had just been sealed again by Mu Jinyu. The reason she could stand in the sky at ten thousand meters was all supported by Mu Jinyu.

"Hurry and release the restrictions for me!" Xilin impatiently shouted at Mu Jinyu.

Hearing her words, Mu Jinyu thought for a moment, then waved his hand lightly. Instantly, a faint clear Qi spread out, like twinkling stars, pouring into Xilin's body.

"Crack!"

"Boom!!"

Soon, the restrictions within Xilin were broken one by one, allowing her to restore her cultivation to the Divinity Transformation Realm.

But the unlocking of the restrictions stopped there, and did not progress further.

"Hurry and unlock it all!" Xilin anxiously shouted, unsatisfied with only restoring to the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Mu Jinyu said blandly, "This level of cultivation should be enough for you to try. After all, you haven't sworn an oath by the Heavenly Dao, I dare not fully unlock your cultivation."

Xilin, upon hearing this, glared fiercely at him, and said, "Fine, fine..."

She did not immediately prepare to swear an oath to Mu Jinyu, promising to interact amicably after her cultivation was restored.

Because if she could control this Black Lotus Divine Plant, she could directly utilize its power to fully unlock these restrictions within her, then who would care about Mu Jinyu's survival?

Swearing now would be of no benefit to her and would instead be a constraint.

"Ha!"

Xilin steadied her mind, suppressing her anxiety, excitement, and joy, shouted charmingly, raised her True Yuan, mobilized the nature's spiritual energy within a hundred miles, then instantly absorbed it into her body, temporarily boosting her cultivation slightly again. She then spread her True Yuan and Spiritual Thought, targeting the trembling Three-Leaf Youlian in front!

"Buzz!"

Xilin's True Yuan and Spiritual Thought slowly eroded towards the Three-Leaf Youlian, preparing to refine it, and take it for her own use!

She had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Her family had always been eager to own a Divine Plant. Although they had never encountered one, their ancestors had delved into all sorts of ancient books and materials and knew how to subdue a Divine Plant.

Xilin had studied this knowledge since childhood but, like the sages of her family history, had never had the opportunity to use it.

Xilin never thought she would use those methods in her lifetime, but today, she could finally fulfill her family's aspiration.

"Wow..."

However, when Xilin's True Yuan and Spiritual Thought eroded towards the Three-Leaf Youlian, unexpectedly, her True Yuan and Spiritual Thought were all like ink poured against a waterfall, failing to contaminate the waterfall, and were directly washed away.

She didn't even have the ability to penetrate the Three-Leaf Youlian.

"How could this be?!"

Seeing this, Xilin was shocked, her eyes became somewhat dazed.

She failed!

But that wasn't the reason for her despair.

Because in her expectations, a Divine Plant is not something easily subdued, and she had considered various possibilities of failure. However, each one could motivate her to continue using the next method, except this type of failure where she hardly considered...

Because this meant that the Divine Plant in front of her was already subdued by someone else, subdued by Mu Jinyu, and had become his personal belonging!

Naturally, no matter how others tried to snatch it, they couldn't take it away!

"You!"

Xilin suddenly looked up at Mu Jinyu, her eyes like they wanted to ignite in flames, her whole being like an angry little female leopard, clawing and pouncing at Mu Jinyu, "How dare you take it before me, give me back the Divine Plant!"

"You lunatic!"

Mu Jinyu watched Xilin go berserk, feeling utterly baffled.

Hadn't he already told this woman that the Three-Leaf Youlian had acknowledged him as its owner?

She didn't believe it and insisted on trying, and after failing, she goes mad and wants to fight him?!

Perhaps from the start she didn't think he could subdue the Three-Leaf Youlian, and no matter what, planned to take the Divine Plant away?

"Bang!"

Mu Jinyu raised his palm into the void, solidifying an invisible wall in front of him. Xilin charged forward, crashing headfirst into it, yet continued fiercely trying to fight with Mu Jinyu, and was then punched back by him.

"Boom!"

Instantly, her right eye became darker, her straight and high-bridged nose was also swollen from Mu Jinyu's punch, and two strands of faint golden blood ran down.

Mu Jinyu didn't hold back much with those punches, knocking Xilin dizzy, with stars spinning in her vision, her body weakening, nearly plummeting from the sky.

If Mu Jinyu didn't see her as still useful, and didn't timely use his True Yuan to stop her fall, Xilin might have crashed to her death!

A Goddess falling to her death, if reported back to the Canglan Realm, would likely be a huge joke in the Divine Race.

"Slap slap!"

Mu Jinyu walked to the still somewhat dizzy Xilin, raised his hand, and slapped her face several times, making loud slapping sounds, causing her face, as fair as a peeled boiled egg, to swell up high.

"You..."

Xilin was slapped awake by Mu Jinyu, still a bit groggy. Seeing Mu Jinyu's face close to hers made her think he was even more detestable and ugly, she mumbled indistinctly, "Give me back my Divine Plant!"

"Still dreaming? Wake up..." Mu Jinyu sighed helplessly, raising his hand to give Xilin a few more slaps.

Soon, Xilin's originally exquisite face was almost slapped into that of a pig's head by Mu Jinyu.

And with these slaps from Mu Jinyu, Xilin finally came to her senses.

"Uh..."

Xilin wobbled her head, feeling a burning pain on her face, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Mu Jinyu, feeling wronged, "You hit me?"

Sadly, her current appearance was far from beautiful, her watery eyes looking at Mu Jinyu didn't evoke any pity, Mu Jinyu coolly said, "Yeah, who told you to go mad and fight me? I already showed mercy."

"Don't worry, you'll be fine in a few days," Mu Jinyu consoled.

"Hiss..." Xilin reached out to touch her face, and immediately gasped from the pain, her entire face seemed to be cramping.

"Wow...it hurts...you call this showing mercy?!" Xilin complained, a surge of resentment rushing to her head!

Seeing Xilin finally regaining her senses and ready to discuss, Mu Jinyu shifted topics, "Let's not talk about that, how about your attempt just now, was it impossible to subdue my Divine Plant? I already told you, it has acknowledged me as its owner, propose a different condition!"

Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Xilin's eyes turned dazed once more.

Then, her nostrils quivered, sniffling softly, full of despair as she murmured, "I just want this, why did you take it first..."

"It shouldn't be, humans shouldn't be able to get a Divine Plant to acknowledge them..."

"How can this be, it shouldn't be..."
