Douluo Continent: Starting with a Self-Created Soul Ring 18

Chapter 18: Offering a First Kiss

After recovering slightly, Tang Yuehua, disregarding her weakness, eagerly began attempting to cultivate.

Gu Ziyue and Bai Lu could only watch from the side.

Bai Lu’s breathing was somewhat rapid, seemingly even more nervous than Tang Yuehua, who was attempting cultivation.

Bai Lu clenched her fists, her gaze fixed on Tang Yuehua. She genuinely hoped Tang Yuehua would succeed this time.

Gu Ziyue naturally also hoped Tang Yuehua would succeed.

Under Gu Ziyue and Bai Lu’s watchful eyes, Tang Yuehua, who was attempting cultivation, suddenly looked excited.

The joy radiating from Tang Yuehua, from the inside out, was uncontainable.

Gu Ziyue and Bai Lu, watching from the side, knew at this moment that Tang Yuehua had succeeded, because a suction force had emanated from her body, constantly absorbing energy from the surroundings.

This was the state of entering the Meditation Technique!

“Suc…succeeded…”

“It really worked…”

Bai Lu was incredibly excited, but afraid of disturbing Tang Yuehua, so she reached out and tightly grasped Gu Ziyue’s arm.

Seeing that Tang Yuehua could now cultivate, the excitement and happiness in her heart were no less than Tang Yuehua’s.

“Don’t get too excited yet, it’s still uncertain if the problem is truly solved!”

Gu Ziyue, whose arm was being squeezed painfully by Bai Lu, quickly freed himself, grabbed her hands to prevent her from moving, and calmly advised.

Bai Lu was momentarily stunned, looking at Gu Ziyue in puzzlement.

“She can cultivate now, absorbing energy and converting it into Soul Power. At the same time, her innate domain will also recover, but the outcome remains uncertain…”

Gu Ziyue explained.

“Ah…” Bai Lu let out a soft gasp, wanting to cover her mouth, only to realize her hands were held by Gu Ziyue. Her face flushed slightly, and she quickly struggled free.

“So, let’s not get too excited yet. Let’s see how Tang Yuehua’s subsequent cultivation progresses!”

After letting go of Bai Lu, Gu Ziyue quietly said again.

“Mm!”

Bai Lu softly hummed, then turned her head back to watch Tang Yuehua cultivate.

While Gu Ziyue and Bai Lu were still worried that Tang Yuehua’s cultivation might encounter problems again, Tang Yuehua, who was cultivating, had no such worries.

Or rather, she simply couldn’t imagine that there might be further problems.

At this moment, Tang Yuehua was completely immersed in the excitement of cultivation.

Immersed in the wondrous feeling of the unity of body and soul.

After cultivating for a while, fully confirming that she could truly cultivate, Tang Yuehua stopped, opening her excited eyes.

Upon opening her eyes, Tang Yuehua saw Gu Ziyue.

Overwhelmed by excitement and joy, the moment she saw Gu Ziyue, Tang Yuehua, without knowing where the impulse came from, stood up, spread her arms, and pounced on Gu Ziyue.

Smack!

Tang Yuehua directly kissed Gu Ziyue’s face, offering her first kiss.

“Gu Ziyue, thank you!”

“Thank you so much!”

After offering the kiss, Tang Yuehua continued to excitedly hug Gu Ziyue, burying her head in his chest, excitedly expressing her gratitude.

“…”

Bai Lu, who had seen Tang Yuehua get up and had originally intended to celebrate with her, was instantly stunned in place upon witnessing this scene.

Bai Lu was speechless. Could it be that her cousin had fallen for Gu Ziyue?

This wouldn’t do!

“Cousin, what are you doing?”

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Bai Lu quickly stepped forward and pulled Tang Yuehua away from Gu Ziyue.

“Ah…”

“Sister, I… I was just too excited…”

Tang Yuehua, pulled away by Bai Lu, also realized her actions were too embarrassing, quickly blushing and explaining.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at Gu Ziyue.

“Hmph…”

Bai Lu let out a dissatisfied humph, then turned to Gu Ziyue and warned, “Gu Ziyue, my cousin was just thanking you, don’t get any ideas!”

Her cousin was the daughter of the Hao Tian Sect’s Sect Master, not someone Gu Ziyue could match.

She admitted that Gu Ziyue was intelligent and capable, but he was ultimately just an ordinary Soul Master with only 1 innate Soul Power level.

“I know!” Gu Ziyue smiled faintly, unaffected by Bai Lu’s words, then turned to Tang Yuehua and said, “Tang Yuehua, try again now, see if you can continue cultivating.”

“Ah… why?”

Tang Yuehua, forgetting her shyness, quickly looked up.

“Yes, cousin, try cultivating again…”

Bai Lu explained Gu Ziyue’s earlier explanation.

“…Okay, I’ll try now!”

Tang Yuehua, after hearing this, her face turned slightly panicked, quickly nodded.

Then Tang Yuehua immediately sat cross-legged, preparing to try again.

Soon, Tang Yuehua opened her eyes, her eyes glistening with tears: “I… I can’t cultivate again…”

“Gu Ziyue, I… what should I do?”

Tang Yuehua was completely panicked, almost on the verge of tears, and could only anxiously ask Gu Ziyue for help.

“Gu Ziyue!”

Bai Lu also looked at Gu Ziyue.

Gu Ziyue mentally rolled his eyes at Bai Lu.

She had just warned him not to get any ideas, and now she was asking for his help.

“It’s fine, it’s not a big problem!”

Gu Ziyue smiled calmly, immediately reassuring the somewhat flustered Tang Yuehua.

Tang Yuehua said nothing, only her beautiful eyes fixed on Gu Ziyue, waiting for him to tell her what to do.

“When you were cultivating, your innate domain certainly recovered some energy, but your cultivation didn’t stop…”

“Therefore, as long as you enter a cultivation state, your innate domain won’t hinder your cultivation!”

“So, next time you cultivate, just deplete your Soul Power first, then continue cultivating until it’s full. This way, your Soul Power can still gradually increase…”

“However, this means that you will have to deplete your Soul Power every time you cultivate, which will be very tiring!”

“Until the day your strength increases, strong enough that your innate domain no longer interferes with you, you can then cultivate normally!”

Gu Ziyue adjusted his glasses, then calmly spoke.

“Right!”

“I’m so stupid, I didn’t think of something so simple!”

“Cousin, you don’t have to worry anymore, you can still continue cultivating!”

Bai Lu immediately slapped her right fist with her left hand, excitedly exclaimed.

“Yes, yes, Gu Ziyue, thank you so much!”

Tang Yuehua also nodded excitedly, then thanked Gu Ziyue sincerely again.

“I’ve already received your thanks!”

Gu Ziyue tapped his cheek and smiled contentedly.

“…”

Tang Yuehua’s face blushed instantly, shyly lowering her head.
