"Ahem!" Hu Liena seemed to have finally noticed the gaze here, and wiped the corner of her mouth with some embarrassment (but obviously not cleanly), stood up, and forced herself to calm down: "What...Lingling, a breakthrough? Congratulations! Do you want to open the last box? Or...Sister Na opened it for you?" She glanced at the last blind box, and then at the half pack of spicy sticks left in her hand, as if she was weighing it.
Ye Lingling looked at Hu Liena's eyes that were obviously unfinished, then at her glossy lips, and then thinking about the domineering and strangely greedy fragrance just now, her throat involuntarily... rolled a little. A rare trace of redness appeared on her cold face, and her voice was a little embarrassed and tentative: "That...Sister Na...that spicy strip...is it really...that delicious?"
“Hmm?!” Hu Liena’s eyes lit up instantly, as if she had discovered a like-minded comrade! She rushed to Ye Lingling in a few steps, picked up a bright red spicy stick, and handed it to Ye Lingling like a treasure. Her tone was full of temptation: "Of course it's delicious! If you don't believe me, just smell it! Is it fragrant? Is it spicy? Is it numbing? Does it taste particularly strong when chewed? And! The soul power recovery effect is amazing! It's 10,000 times better than eating dry food! Come on, try it. ! Open the last box after tasting it! I’ll leave two big packs for you!”
Ye Lingling looked at the spicy strips that were so close, exuding a deadly temptation, and then looked at Hu Liena’s sincere (?) eyes, and then thought about her parents watching... After struggling for a second, her cold personality finally gave way to her foodie instinct. She carefully took the spicy stick and took a tentative bite.
In an instant!
An indescribable compound taste exploded in her mouth! salty! fresh! fragrant! numb! hot! With a hint of strange sweetness! And that chewy texture that gets better and better the more you chew it!
Ye Lingling's ice-blue eyes suddenly widened! It’s like the door to a new world has opened!
"Well...!" She exclaimed vaguely, and her cold face was instantly occupied by a shock that was a mixture of surprise, satisfaction and "it turns out there is such a delicious food in the world!" The little mouth started chewing quickly and couldn't stop at all!
Ye Chongshan and Su Wanrong: "..."Daughter...where is your aloofness? Where is your reserve? This spicy strip... is so terrifying? !
“Hahaha! How about it? I didn’t lie to you!” Hu Liena smiled proudly with her arms akimbo, with an expression of “I knew it”, and she put the two packs of spicy sticks she had just promised into Ye Lingling’s hand, “Here! Sister, you have what you say. Come on, strike while the iron is hot and open the last box! Let’s eat together after opening it!”Ye Lingling stuffed her mouth with two new packs of spicy sticks, her face was slightly red, and she nodded vigorously. With a sense of satisfaction that she was "full and ready to work," she pointed at the last blind box with her oily fingers (having just taken the spicy strips).
Click! Buzz!
This time, the light from the opening of the box did not wrap around the whole body, but turned into a condensed emerald green stream of light with a hint of vegetation. With a "swish", it accurately penetrated into the center of Ye Lingling's eyebrows!
She exclaimed subconsciously, her cold voice rising to a higher pitch due to shock:
"Blue silver entanglement!"
"Another... another self-created soul skill?!"
"Cough cough cough!"
"Bang!"
In the corner, the threesome who were immersed in the carnival of spicy chips suffered a heavy blow in an instant!
Half of the spicy stick in Hu Liena's mouth was sprayed out directly, drawing a shiny parabola in the air.
Yan was choked so much that she coughed shockingly, her face turned red, and the spicy strip bag in her hand almost burst.
Zie Yue's hand shook, and the new pack of spicy strips she had just received fell directly to the ground.
Three pairs of eyes, filled with the same dullness, shock, and a sense of absurdity that has been severely teased by fate! The spicy and delicious flavor in your mouth instantly became tasteless, like chewing wax!
"Another...another self-created soul skill?!" Hu Liena pointed at Ye Lingling, her fox eyes widened, and her voice changed in tone, "Lingling! You...are you the reincarnation of the daughter of the Goddess of Luck?!" She felt that the soul power enhancements and props she opened the blind box were nothing compared to Ye Lingling's night! A strong sour water called "envy, jealousy, and hatred" bubbled up from the bottom of her heart, almost drowning her!
Xie Yue silently bent down to pick up the dropped bag of spicy strips, patted the dust, and the muscles on her expressionless face twitched slightly. Although the Xuantian Technique he obtained is good, it is a cultivation method and the results are slow. How could Ye Lingling's "self-created soul skills" that were directly launched and had immediate results be as exciting as this? Still two!
Ye Chongshan and Su Wanrong were so excited that they almost fainted! Su Wanrong covered her heart and looked at her daughter with tears in her eyes. She was so happy that she almost suffocated: "Oh my god! Another self-created soul skill! Ling Ling! My good Ling Ling! You are... you are going against the will of God!" She felt that all the virtues accumulated by her ancestors had exploded on her daughter today!
Ye Chongshan was so excited that his beard was trembling, he clenched his hands into fists, and wished he could shout to the sky: "It's worth it! Joining the Spirit Hall is so worth it! Not to mention the trading company, it's worth selling the Ye family's ancestral home! Lingling! Hurry! Let's see this new soul skill!"
Ling Ye, who was standing aside, twitched the corners of his mouth ever so slightly. A thought that only he could hear, with a strong sense of complaining, flashed across the screen in his heart: "My dear mother! The number one soul skill of a certain three was actually given to Jiuxin Haitang?! This blind box system... is trying to make me laugh to death? This picture is so beautiful that I dare not look at it!"
Under the ardent expectations of his parents and the sour gaze of the golden generation trio, Ye Lingling calmed down. She recalled the clear control method in her mind and raised her hand again. This time, her goal was clear—the empty chair in the corner where Salas had been sitting just now!
"Blue silver entanglement!" She shouted loudly, the soul power flowing in her fingertips, following the trajectory of the brand.
chichichichi——!
Several thick, solid soul power vines shining with light blue tough luster, like awakened spiritual snakes, instantly emerged from the cracks in the floor! They were very fast, with a "swish" sound breaking through the air, and they pounced on the chair accurately!
bang! Snap! Snap!
The vines successfully wrapped around the four legs of the chair!
Then...there is no more.
The vines were only symbolically wrapped around the chair legs two or three times, hanging loosely. Let alone being tied tightly, they could not even make the chair shake. One of the vines seemed to be "not strong enough" and hung down limply, resting on the chair.
There was silence in the quiet room.
Hu Liena: "..."
Yan: "..."
Xie Yue: "..."
Ye Chongshan, Su Wanrong: "..."
Ye Lingling looked at the loose and non-deterrent vines, and a rare blush of embarrassment appeared on his cold face.
br/> "Pfft!" Hu Liena was the first to not hold back and laughed out loud. The jealousy just now was instantly washed away by the funny scene in front of her. "Oh, my sister Lingling! Are you using this 'tangle' to decorate the legs of the chair? Isn't this too... too gentle?" She laughed so hard that her branches trembled.
Yan also grinned, showing her white teeth, a little narrowly: "Haha! Sister Lingling, your skills... um... tying garbage bags are okay, but tying people... unless they stand still and let you tie them, you have to tie their ankles!" He also made some gestures.
Although Xie Yue did not speak, the corners of her mouth moved upward in a very rare slight arc, and she was obviously "amazed" by the effect.
The ecstasy on the faces of Ye Chongshan and Su Wanrong also solidified, replaced by expressions of dumbfounding. Su Wanrong quickly comforted her daughter: "It's okay! Ling Ling! If you can tie him up, you are very powerful! You are an auxiliary! Being able to tie up the enemy's ankles and create opportunities for teammates is also a great achievement! It's better than nothing! Yes! It's better than nothing!"
Ye Lingling looked at the expressions of her parents pretending to be "very powerful", then looked at Hu Liena and the other three who were struggling to hold back their laughter, and felt the imprint of the skill called "Blue Silver Coil" in her body. For a moment, she felt extremely complicated. This skill... seems a bit useless? It's not at the same level as the powerful "Fireball Technique"! Is it because my martial soul is of the healing type and is not good at attack control?
At this moment, Ye Lingling glanced at her father, Ye Chongshan. The latter, in order to show his support for his daughter's new skills (or to relieve the embarrassment), deliberately stood next to the chair just now, and made a "Look, daddy is standing very steadily" posture.
Ye Linngling had an idea flash in his mind! right! Try tying up something alive! Look at the effect on a moving target!
Her mind moved at will, and the soul power flowed through her fingertips again, and she shouted softly: "Blue and silver winding!"
The target - the ankle of her biological father Ye Chongshan!
Chichichichi!
A few more light blue soul power vines broke out of the ground! This time, the speed seemed to be a little faster, and with an aura of "I'm going to be serious this time", it suddenly wrapped around Ye Chongshan's left ankle!
"Huh?!" Ye Chongshan was posing, completely unprepared! He only felt his ankles tightening. When he looked down, he saw that several blue vines had already wrapped around his ankles several times and tied a rather strong... knot?
"Uh...?" Ye Chongshan tried to lift his feet and found that the vines were extremely "stubborn". Although he could easily break them with his soul power, the real feeling of restraint was real! When he moved, the vines tightened, causing wrinkles in his socks.
"Huh? It seems...much tighter than binding the legs of a chair?" Ye Lingling's eyes lit up, as if he had discovered a new world.
It’s done! Hahaha!”
Yan even slapped her thighs and laughed wildly: “Hahaha! Uncle Ye! Your experience report is so true! Sister Lingling! Is your skill ‘specialized in tying my father’s ankles’? The effect is outstanding!”
Even Xie Yue couldn't help but look away and shrugged her shoulders twice suspiciously.
Su Wanrong looked at her husband's tied left foot, and then at her daughter's expectant eyes. She couldn't laugh or cry, and in the end she could only helplessly hold her forehead: "Ling Ling... this... this skill... um... quite... quite unique..."
Ye Chongshan blushed. He looked at the circle of blue vines around his ankles and felt the real sense of restraint. Then he thought about his daughter's fireball and god-given soul ring, and a complex emotion surged into his heart. He cleared his throat, trying to maintain the dignity of a businessman (even though one foot was tied), and his voice contained a complex emotion that was a mixture of helplessness, pampering and forced respect:
"Ahem! Um...Lingling, this...blue silver entanglement, right? The effect...the effect is a bit simple, but it is better than unexpected! You see, even your father and I were hit by it! It shows that it still has practical value! Hmm...there is progress! Dad...Dad is very happy!" As he said, he quietly used his soul power to break the vines that were in the way.
Ye Lingling looked at her father pretending to be calm, then looked at Hu Liena and Yan who were laughing together, Xie Yue who was holding back laughter, and her mother's helpless and doting eyes. Her cold face finally couldn't hold back anymore, revealing a shy and slightly proud smile.
Although this "blue and silver entanglement" looks a bit...well...unpretentious and boring. But, after all, it was her, Ye Lingling, who obtained the second attack (?) skill by herself (opening the blind box)! Moreover, the effect of tying up the father is pretty good!
Auxiliary department? Who stipulates that auxiliary departments can't spit fireballs and tie people's ankles part-time? !
