章節 43: 43. Lin Yi stepped in to resolve the issue, and Xue Qinghe was endlessly grateful_1
Thousand Waves stood up gravely and said honestly that he dearly missed his granddaughter's true appearance; even Bi Bidong below the stage wished for another chance to see her daughter's original face.
But definitely not on an occasion like this!
Obviously, the secret of the Martial Soul Hall had been exposed. The Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire possessed a Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, and without any explanation, this fact left much to the imagination.
Qian Renxue stood on the stage, looking around somewhat bewildered.
This true appearance of unbeatable beauty did not bring her any joy; at this moment, it had become an overwhelming pressure, leaving her breathless.
The infiltration plan of Martial Soul Hall—was it all going to fall apart now?
Anyone could see that the reward of attaining Mastery of the Bright Attribute and turning into a Seraph had nothing to do with each other.
But how could the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire possibly have a Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul?
Qian Renxue steadied her emotions, trying to maintain her composure as much as possible.
She retracted her Martial Soul and once again used the power of her soul bone to disguise herself back to the appearance of Xue Qinghe.
Yet, this was ultimately futile.
The stunning appearance that had just dazzled everyone had been etched into the minds of every Soul Master witnessing the event.
The Guard Commander below the stage rubbed his eyes, questioning if he had gone blind.
Was that person he just saw even the Crown Prince he remembered?
That was clearly a beautiful woman, like an angel!
But having seen Xue Qinghe in the imperial palace so frequently, could he not tell if the Crown Prince was male or female?
At this moment, the Guard Commander was truly dumbfounded.
Xue Qinghe took a deep breath and with an awkward smile looked at Lin Yi, "Just now... What just happened? How did I seem to turn into a different person?"
"I don't understand... Didn't the senior say it was the reward for achieving Intermediate Mastery of Light Attributes?"
As Xue Qinghe spoke, an embarrassed smile appeared on his face, trying to bluff his way through with feigned ignorance.
But there were so many people below the stage who couldn't be fooled, they weren't blind.
In Soul City, who didn't recognize a Six-winged Angel?
After all, as one walked through the main streets, one only needed to look up to see the huge Six-winged Angel Statue above Martial Soul Hall.
Wasn't that the same as the appearance Xue Qinghe had just taken?
What to do... Xue Qinghe was almost in tears, what should have been a joyful moment due to a breakthrough in Soul Power turned into this predicament.
Bi Bidong and Thousand Waves were also panic-stricken. This was completely unexpected, and despite their extensive combat experience, they had no idea how to deal with the situation anymore.
"Ah, so that's what it was..."
Just then, Lin Yi suddenly muttered to himself.
Xue Qinghe immediately turned his attention there.
Lin Yi held another black ball of light in his hand, smiling somewhat embarrassingly, "Sorry, I seem to have given the wrong reward just now."
"Huh?"
Xue Qinghe was confused.
Given the wrong one?
But he had indeed only enhanced his Bright Attributes just now!
The increase in Soul Power was due solely to the special nature of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.
Qing He knew this clearly.
"I seem to have given you a God Five-Minute Experience Card for the Six-winged Angel Deity, which is why you looked like a Seraph. There's no need to panic over this."
Upon hearing this, Thousand Waves looked at Lin Yi with some surprise.
Xue Qinghe furrowed his brow slightly.
He knew very well that what he had received was not a Six-winged Angel Experience Card—could he not tell if he had Divine Power within him?
But why would Lin Yi say such a thing?
By now, the Soul Masters below had expressions of sudden realization on their faces.
It seemed as if they had understood why Xue Qinghe underwent such a transformation.
"Wow, so it was because of an Experience Card, huh? I thought Xue Qinghe also had a Six-winged Angel Martial Soul."
"So this is what someone looks like after using an Experience Card, does that mean I can also turn into a great beauty?"
"Dream on! With that face of yours, do you think you have the luck for it?"
...
These people had never seen what one looked like after using an Experience Card and thought that even their gender could change after use.
After all, the Six-winged Angel was the very image of a goddess.
Listening to their discussions, Xue Qinghe's eyes widened slightly, finally realizing what was going on.
Could it be...
At this moment, he looked towards Lin Yi, towards the warmth radiating from the depths of the youth's pitch-black eyes.
Xue Qinghe's nose suddenly felt sore, and a great sense of gratitude welled up inside him.
So Senior Lin Yi hadn't given the wrong reward. He had been lying! His purpose was to help him!
To help him resolve this crisis!
"Senior, I..."
Xue Qinghe took a few excited steps forward, restrained by the situation or else he would truly have expressed his gratitude.
Lin Yi smiled gently, his expression kind.
"I apologize, it was my mistake. Now, I will return the reward you deserve to you."
After speaking, he raised the black light orb in his hand and flicked it back towards Xue Qinghe.
This was an Intermediate Mastery of Light Attributes, extracted by the System from Senior Mastery.
A regular Attribute Mastery contains 100 enhancement points, an Intermediate Attribute Mastery contains 1,000 enhancement points, and Senior Attribute Mastery contains 10,000 enhancement points.
Anything above would be Ultimate Attribute Mastery.
Anyway, stripping 1,000 points from 10,000 didn't really count as a loss, especially since Lin Yi needed Xue Qinghe to owe him a favor for paving the way for the upcoming Soul Master tournament.
So, after some consideration, Lin Yi thought it was fine to help him.
The black orb of light merged into Xue Qinghe's body once again.
This time, Xue Qinghe deliberately controlled the stability of his Martial Soul, but no change like before occurred, probably because his Soul Power hadn't broken through again.
After this fusion, his Martial Soul level reached 79.
From just a moment ago, he had improved by a whole 12 levels!
Oh my god...
Xue Qinghe lifted his eyes and looked in Lin Yi's direction, his eyes instantly moistening.
He knew this reward was given freely by Lin Yi.
Lin Yi not only helped him avert the crisis but also gave him a reward for free. This immense favor made Xue Qinghe feel indebted beyond measure.
"Senior..."
Xue Qinghe walked towards Lin Yi, quickening his pace.
Wait, what is he doing?
Lin Yi watched him warily.
He watched as Xue Qinghe came before him and knelt down. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Xue Qinghe threw his arms around him in a hug!
Lin Yi's eyes widened.
Thousand Waves and Bi Bidong were stunned as they watched the scene unfold before them.
Xue Qinghe hugged Lin Yi tightly, a pleasant fragrance emanating from him, a unique scent belonging to women.
"Senior, thank you."
Lin Yi knew he was being held by a woman.
No, this won't do.
The heart must not be disturbed.
You don't even have a chest yet, and you think you can tempt me?
"Thanking is fine, but there's no need for a hug. I'll give you three seconds to let go, one..."
Xue Qinghe immediately obeyed and loosened his grip, stepping back with a contented expression.
"Thank you, Senior!"
Xue Qinghe smiled and bowed deeply to Lin Yi once more.
The Senior really is a good person. Not only is he kind, but he's also very considerate.
It's just that he disguises himself as someone unapproachable on purpose.
It seems that he must have been through a lot, otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of seeking death.
Xue Qinghe stared intently at Lin Yi, sizing him up.
Upon a closer look, he found that although the youth was of average appearance, he grew on you after a while, especially his temperament, which was quite appealing.
It seemed like he had a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
Lin Yi looked at him impassively, "Had enough looks? Are you going for your second attack or not?"
"Yes!"
