262: Chapter 77 Ensemble, Haiyang Evolution (Part 1)_1 262: Chapter 77 Ensemble, Haiyang Evolution (Part 1)_1 Time always flew by during cultivation.
When Ye Yinzhu finally felt the fluctuation of Zhu Douqi after rotating through the three Weekly Heavenly Circuits, his mind told him that someone had entered the room.
Taking a deep breath, he guided the hard-earned Zhu Douqi into his Dantian and opened his eyes.
It was Haiyang who came in.
The sky outside was already somewhat dark, and since there were only the two of them, Haiyang didn’t bother to hide her beautiful face with the glow of the Snow Dragon Leopard.
She was holding a large bowl in her hands, her careful and focused demeanor was pronounced.
“Haiyang, you look worn out.” Looking at her somewhat pale face, Ye Yinzhu felt a warmth in his heart.
She had been the one taking care of him throughout these past days, physically and mentally exhausted in a way she, a Marshal’s granddaughter, had never experienced before.
Yet, she never plained, always watching over him.
How could Ye Yinzhu fail to appreciate such devotion?
“Yin Zhu, are you feeling any better?
There’s nothing else here.
Zi asked Glacis to catch some fish from the ice sea, and I made a bowl of fish soup for you.
I don’t know if it’s any good.” Having said that, Haiyang’s face reddened.
She didn’t mention that this was the first time she had ever cooked.
Ye Yinzhu blurted out, “It must be delicious.”
Haiyang chuckled and sat next to Ye Yinzhu, “How can you know it’s yummy before even tasting?”
Ye Yinzhu sat up and said, “If you made it, it must be tasty.”
Haiyang’s face reddened even more, but the feeling of satisfaction seemingly washed away all her fatigue from these days.
“Eat quickly then.
Eating more will help your body recover quicker.”
Ye Yinzhu nodded and raised his hand to take the bowl, but Haiyang quickly said, “You are still weak, let me feed you.” The last four words were almost mumbled, fortunately, it was already quite dark so Ye Yinzhu couldn’t see her blush.
“That…
that would be too much.” Ye Yinzhu felt a little embarrassed, yet his heart started beating faster.
Haiyang shook her head gently and didn’t say anything.
A light flashed in her hand and a delicate silver spoon came out of her Space Ring.
Girls always brought what they needed, especially if they had something as convenient as a Space Ring.
The bowl and spoon she was holding were always with her and now they finally came in handy.
She very carefully scooped up some of the soup, gently blew on it to cool it down and checked the temperature with her lips before she brought the spoon to Ye Yinzhu’s mouth.
Ye Yinzhu opened his mouth in cooperation and drank down the soup, but he couldn’t taste anything.
It wasn’t that the soup wasn’t delicious, but because his full attention was fixed on Haiyang’s face.
“Haiyang, you are truly beautiful.”
Haiyang looked up at him somewhat surprised.
She never expected Ye Yinzhu to pliment her in such a way at this time.
She whispered, “Did you only just realize it?
Even if I am beautiful, my beauty is only for you.”
What Ye Yinzhu meant by beautiful was not only about Haiyang’s physical appearance, but also her tenderness as she fed him soup.
Her long eyelashes fluttered gently, her jade-like face was flawless, but the most striking thing for Ye Yinzhu was her gentleness.
Who would know apart from him that the outwardly cold Haiyang could be so gentle?
He drank the fish soup cooked by Haiyang sip by sip.
Although the flavor was vastly inferior to any fish soup he had ever tasted, the rich taste of thesea fish and Haiyang’s deep affection made Ye Yinzhu realize that this was the most delicious fish soup he had ever had in his life.
After finishing the large bowl of soup, Ye Yinzhu felt a warmth spread in his chest and stomach that was indescribably forting, recovering part of his strength.
“It’s really delicious, Haiyang, thank you.”
Haiyang gave him a small smile, “Don’t thank me, alright?”
Ye Yinzhu said, “You should eat too.
Have you had anything yet?”
Haiyang paused, only then she realized that she hadn’t eaten anything yet since she had been busy cooking fish soup for Ye Yinzhu.
She didn’t want to lie to Ye Yinzhu and only shook her head gently.
Ye Yinzhu frowned slightly, “How can you take care of me if your body fails first?
You need to eat!
Go get some food.”
Haiyang nodded, hesitated for a moment before saying softly, “Yin Zhu, I will go eat, but can you promise me one thing?”
Ye Yinzhu asked, “What’s the matter?”
Appearing hesitant, Haiyang spoke in an even lower voice, “We didn’t bring many tents, and we’ve always stayed in caves before.
Given the limited number of tents within this ice ring, there weren’t enough to go around.
Previously, I was taking care of you in this tent.
I…I don’t have a place to sleep tonight, can I stay here with you?
I’ll just meditate on the side.” Having finally mustered enough courage to say this, Haiyang was too embarrassed to even lift his head.
Looking at her pitiful appearance, waves of sympathy swelled within Ye Yinzhu’s heart, “Of course, you can.
It would be my honor.”
Haiyang was scared that Ye Yinzhu would reject her.
Hearing his consent, she breathed a sigh of relief, excitedly saying, “I’ll be back soon.” Even as she spoke, she had already run out.
Watching her retreating figure, Ye Yinzhu called out, “Eat well.”
Haiyang spent much less time eating than Ye Yinzhu had expected.
When she returned to the tent, whether it was due to Ye Yinzhu’s words or her meal, she looked healthier.
The paleness had been replaced with a faint rosy flush, making her delicate face appear more adorable and tender.
Ye Yinzhu moved aside, creating space for Haiyang.
The two-person tent wasn’t big, and after Haiyang sat down, they were almost within each other’s breath.
“You returned so quickly.
Did you eat enough?” Ye Yinzhu asked.
Haiyang was obediently nodded her head, “Yes, I did.” Her soft gaze floated towards Ye Yinzhu, her expression somewhat uneasy.
“It’s really quiet here.
If it weren’t so cold, it would be a nice place to live.
But it lacks life, green plants are insufficient.
It makes one feel unfortable.” For some reason, staring at Haiyang’s beautiful face, Ye Yinzhu thought of his mother, which naturally led to thoughts of the blue sky and sea.
The bamboo forest brimming with life, the adorable small animals, his bamboo house along with his family members.
He wondered if his father had reached home yet and how his mother and grandfathers were doing.
Observing the glint in Ye Yinzhu’s eyes, Haiyang gently asked, “What are you thinking about?”
Subconsciously, Ye Yinzhu answered, “Home.
I’m reminiscing about the blue sky and sea where I was raised.”
“Blue Sky Sea?
That’s a beautiful name.
I believe, it must be a beautiful place.” Haiyang’s eyes expressed a hint of yearning.
Ye Yinzhu nodded, “Indeed!
It’s a beautiful place, a bit warm though.
The Blue Sky Sea is actually a bamboo forest, the name signifies the ocean within the emerald green.”
Haiyang giggled, “I’d love to see it if I get the chance.
When will I bee the emerald within?”
Ye Yinzhu was taken aback for a moment before realizing her meaning.
His face broke out into a wider smile as he recalled his mother’s words.
If one day, he found a girl he liked, he would bring her home.
An unexpected emotion spread through his heart causing him to look at her tenderly.
“Yinzhu, I truly envy you.
I believe you must have a harmonious family.” There was an added touch of sadness in Haiyang’s eyes, making her look more pitiful.
Ye Yinzhu nodded, “Father, mother, and both grandfathers.
I used to live with them in the Blue Sky Sea.
But because I was learning to play the zither with Grandpa Qin, I didn’t spend much time with them.
It was only during the year before leaving the Blue Sky Sea that I was able to spend more time with them.
I know they all love me dearly.
The reason we couldn’t spend more time together before was due to practice.”
Haiyang’s bowed her head, “I don’t have a family.
From the time I have memories, I’ve had no parents.
Grandpa told me that they died in a war between Black Dragon and Silver Dragon shortly after I was born.
I was exposed to the corruption curse from the Black Dragon Clan and lost my original face.
If it weren’t for your help, I would probably still be the ugliest girl in the Divine Music Department.”
“No, you aren’t.
Even without my help, you’d never be the ugliest girl.” Ye Yinzhu earnestly said, “Haiyang, judging a person’s beauty isn’t solely based on looks.
External appearances merely represent one’s born beauty.
The concept of beauty is too broad.
At least in my opinion, pared to appearance, inner beauty is far more important.
Take Sura, for example, Sura isn’t exceptionally handsome nor remarkably well-built.
Yet I always thought he had a beautiful heart.
Being with him is such a forting feeling.”
A hint of gratitude lit up in Haiyang’s eyes, “Sura?
Yinzhu, I believe most people’s feelings towards him are quite different from yours.”
Surprised, Ye Yinzhu asked, “Why?”
“At least in my experiences, Sura is a very cold person.
His aura only changes when he is around you.
With everyone else, even when he is around Xiang Luan’s beauty, his facial expression never changes.
You have to know, Xiang Luan is the most beautiful girl in Milan Magic Martial Academy!
Almost any guy would lose his heart due to her beauty.
Even you’re no exception.
I remember, when you first saw her, there was an evident change in your eyes.
But your eyes merely showed appreciation and admiration, nothing more.
But Sura is different, when he looks at Xiang Luan, his eyes remain icy, there is even a hint of lifelessness.” (To be continued.
