Soul Land: Live Quiz, The Whole World is Exposed by Me

Lin Yu found himself transmigrated to the world of Douluo Continent. At first, he was disheartened, lamenting the lack of a "golden finger" to help him survive in this new world. However, to his astonishment, a mysterious power suddenly manifested, one that bound everyone across the Douluo Continent to its will! On that fateful day, all the inhabitants were drawn into a grand live broadcast room, where they were required to periodically participate in a quiz that would reveal deep, hidden truths. [A Yin]: "What? My son has already passed away? And now another soul resides within his body?" [Bibi Dong]: "Yu Xiaogang, I never imagined that such ulterior motives drove your approach. How despicable and deceitful you are!" [Qian Renxue]: "Please, do not reveal anything about me in the broadcasts!" [Deep Sea Demon Whale King]: "Hmph! The Sea God? He’s nothing more than an ungrateful figure who loves to label others unjustly!" [Meng Shu]: "Lin Yu, if you’re willing to grant me the Dragon Yuan, I will offer my granddaughter in return."

Chapter 194: The Terms of Submission, Celestial Fragrance Immortal Herb

"That's right! We are here to learn the method to evolve our Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul. If you know the way, we are willing to offer anything we have in exchange!"

In the reception hall of Dugu Mansion, after Lin Yu directly pointed out the reason for their visit, Ye Zhixin didn't hide anything. She nodded and responded straightforwardly.

"Offer anything in exchange? What exactly can you offer? Gold soul coins?"

Hearing Ye Zhixin's words, Lin Yu let out a faint smile, a trace of disdain in his voice.

"I had Senior Dugu Bo tell you that I possess a way to evolve the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul. By now, you should have guessed what this method involves."

"No matter what, the opportunity to evolve a martial soul is beyond the value of mere gold soul coins. Do you think you can buy such an opportunity with money?"

As expected…

Realizing that Lin Yu didn't care about money and had other intentions, both Ye Zhixin and Su Kuang felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

Based on the knowledge they had, after the live stream revealed that Dugu Bo had control over the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Ye Zhixin suspected that the method to evolve their martial soul likely involved using immortal herbs.

Was her guess correct?

"Young Master, this method you speak of to evolve our Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul—does it indeed involve a certain immortal herb? If that's the case, what will it take for you to trade this immortal herb to us?"

Taking a deep breath, Ye Zhixin decided to ask, unable to give up on the opportunity for evolution.

"You're right. The method I've discovered to evolve your Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul does indeed involve an immortal herb. And if you want it, the solution is simple!"

With a sly grin, Lin Yu leaned forward slightly, locking his gaze on Ye Zhixin. As he spoke, he paused dramatically.

"In truth, your Nine Heart Begonia Clan doesn't possess anything valuable enough to satisfy me."

"However, if your Nine Heart Begonia Clan is willing to submit to me, I will give you the immortal herb that can evolve your martial soul—for free."

So, he intends to make us submit after all...

Hearing Lin Yu's offer, Ye Zhixin's heart grew heavier.

The immortal herb that could evolve their Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul was the key to breaking the tragic limitation of their clan, where only two spirit masters could inherit the Nine Heart Begonia per generation. She couldn't simply walk away from that.

However, as the head of the Nine Heart Begonia Clan, she had a responsibility to ensure the future of the entire clan. Submitting to someone was not out of the question, but only if the benefits were truly greater than the risks. To throw away the future of the Nine Heart Begonia Clan for a mere chance at evolution was something she couldn't afford to do.

"Clan Leader Ye, what are you hesitating for? Are you questioning whether my Young Master can lead your Nine Heart Begonia Clan to greater heights?"

Seeing Ye Zhixin's hesitation, Dugu Bo, the leader of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Clan, immediately chimed in, sensing her concerns.

"If that's what's on your mind, perhaps you're not aware of who my Young Master is. I'm sure you've heard the name before—he is Lin Yu!"

What?! Lin Yu?

Could it be that Lin Yu?!

Hearing Dugu Bo's words, both Ye Zhixin and Su Kuang, along with Ye Lingling, were stunned. They immediately turned to stare at Lin Yu in shock.

If this young man was truly the same Lin Yu from the live stream, then their Nine Heart Begonia Clan submitting to him wouldn't be a loss at all.

With all the rewards Lin Yu had obtained through the livestream, even the smallest favor could bring immeasurable benefits to their clan!

"Let me tell you something else, Clan Leader Ye. During the last livestream, the fact that I control the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was exposed. Both the Heaven Dou Royal Family, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan have already visited Dugu Mansion."

"I'm sure you can guess why they came—they wanted my immortal herbs. But the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well now belongs to my Young Master."

"When they tried to take the herbs by force, my Young Master arrived and, without yielding an inch, defeated both Blue Lightning Douluo Yu Yuanzhen and Sword Douluo Chen Xin, even though Ning Fengzhi was there to support them!"

"Right now, Blue Lightning Douluo still carries an injury inflicted by my Young Master, and not a single herb was taken. If you doubt my words, feel free to ask around the area near Dugu Mansion—plenty of people witnessed the battle!"

Seeing the shock on Ye Zhixin's face, Dugu Bo seized the moment, recounting Lin Yu's recent victory to further persuade her.

Hearing all of this, Ye Zhixin made up her mind. She took a deep breath and smiled.

"Senior Dugu, we certainly do not doubt your words. We had no idea we were in the presence of the famous Young Master Lin Yu. It seems we have been blind."

"Since you've explained everything, our Nine Heart Begonia Clan is not one to miss such an opportunity. Submitting to Young Master Lin Yu is an honor for us. As long as Young Master Lin Yu can truly help our martial soul evolve, we are more than willing to serve."

"Excellent. However, there is only one immortal herb capable of evolving the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul. Who will take it? You or your daughter?"

Satisfied with Ye Zhixin's decision, Lin Yu stood up and asked directly.

"Give it to Lingling."

Without hesitation, Ye Zhixin smiled and replied.

At her age, Ye Zhixin had long passed the golden period for a spirit master's cultivation. Even with the immortal herb, her growth potential was limited. It would be far more valuable for her daughter to receive the herb.

"Mother!"

Hearing that her mother intended to give her the herb, Ye Lingling stood up, frowning slightly, about to object.

But Ye Zhixin quickly interrupted her, explaining that the herb's effects would be far more beneficial to Ye Lingling than to herself. Reluctantly, Ye Lingling sat back down in silence.

Seeing that the herb would go to Ye Lingling, Lin Yu reached into his Storage Soul Guide and retrieved a large flower that looked like it was sculpted from pink crystal, glowing with a soft, radiant light.

"This is the Celestial Fragrance Immortal Herb. It will allow your Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul to evolve. However, directly consuming it would be difficult. Let me help you refine it into a pill."

As he spoke, Lin Yu summoned his Chaos Green Lotus Martial Soul, forming the Heaven and Earth Cauldron. He tossed the Celestial Fragrance Immortal Herb into the cauldron to begin refining it.

Within moments, a large, ancient cauldron covered in mysterious patterns and exuding an ancient aura appeared before them. Lin Yu placed the Celestial Fragrance Immortal Herb inside.

A yellowish-brown light radiated from the cauldron, and soon the Celestial Fragrance Immortal Herb was transformed into a dragon-eye-sized pill that shimmered like pink crystal, glowing with an ethereal light.
