Sorry that the release got delayed, Banana set the chapter to release on 16th Dec but it didn’t release. I didn’t realize until now _(;3/

The swimming pool and the sports centre are just next to each other, but the building style was completely different. The shape of the sports centre is spherical. The sphere at the gate is concave and protrudes on both sides, so Su Ling and Lin Meng can’t see the centre’s entrance at all. Fortunately, they were not too far away. They ran along the left wing and soon saw the entrance. Not far away, a group of Alpha is fighting.

Su Ling frowned, and Lin Meng’s face was uglier than him, “Alpha’s pheromone.”

Su Ling acknowledged with an En. From the mixed Alpha pheromones, he can easily distinguish that it belongs to 5 different Alphas, and male god’s scent was not in it. Staring hard at the fighting crowd, he quickly found Gu Liheng. Gu Liheng’s face was cold, and he punched very fast, seemingly not injured.

“Ah Rui!” Lin Meng exclaimed when he saw someone throwing a fist at Xiào Rui.

At the same time, Su Ling heard a violent crash and screeching sound of friction behind him. He turned his head, and his pupils shrank from what he saw. A truck seemed to have lost control and ran full speed on the roadside shrubs, quickly approaching him and Lin Meng.

“AH…” Lin Meng screamed out in fright when he turned back from the noise.

Gu Liheng and Xiào Rui turned to look at them immediately.

Su Ling subconsciously pulled Lin Meng forward to run, but in just a few steps, the sharp sound of tires rubbing against the ground sounded very near to his ears. At that moment, Su Ling’s mind was blank; the distance was too close, it’s impossible to run away.

“Ling Ling!” Gu Liheng kicked away the person in front of him and ran to Su Ling.

“Meng Meng!” Xiào Rui’s expression suddenly changed, and he ran to Lin Meng recklessly but was blocked by someone. That man followed Xiào Rui’s gaze and glanced back and became speechless.

Huge vines that have never been seen suddenly appeared out of nowhere. One end of the vine wrapped around the second floor of the swimming pool and the other end spread to the edge of the sports centre, tightly entwining the out-of-control truck. The outer of all 4 car tires were cut by the leaves in the blink of an eye, spilling the debris on the ground. At the same time, the entire truck was pulled back in the air, as if taking off in the opposite direction. When the truck is about to hit the swimming pool building, the vines loosened, and the truck landed with a BANG, like thunder.

Lin Meng knelt on the ground with a thud; Su Ling was no better than him, using all his energies to stay standing. However, because he was holding hands with Lin Meng, he was pulled downwards once Lin Meng knelt down and couldn’t hold himself up again. He knelt down with soft legs, and in front of him were tire fragments scattering everywhere.

He almost got hit.

His heart was beating wildly as if it is about to jump out of his chest in the next second.

“Ling Ling,” Gu Liheng rushed over, knelt down on one foot in front of him. He stretched out his hand to hug Su Ling but stopped when he is about to touch him(SL). His voice tense as he asked, “Are you hurt anywhere?”

Su Ling grabbed Gu Liheng’s hand and fell on him, “I didn’t get hurt, but I was super scared, and my feet are soft.”

Gu Liheng hugged Su Ling tightly, with his palm against the side of his(SL) neck, feeling his strong pulse.

When Xiào Rui ran over, Lin Meng threw himself into his arms and burst into tears, “Ah Rui, I was scared to death. I thought I am dead for sure.”

Distress was shown on Xiào Rui’s face, and his hand was lightly touching the back of Lin Meng’s head as he comforted, “Don’t be afraid, you’re all right now.”

The sound of police sirens and ambulance could be heard approaching nearer, and the manager of the sports centre ran over with two security guards. The manager was sweating cold sweat from seeing what happened.

“President Gu, Young master Xiào, all the troublemakers have been arrested. I’m really sorry that something happened in the sports centre and the security team could not provide timely support.”

Gu Liheng said solemnly, “I want to the specifics of what happened in the centre.”

“Yes, yes, the recording of our CCTV will be sent to you by our personnel soon.” The manager responded quickly.

A patrol police car stopped on the roadside, and 4 tall Alpha police officers got out of the car. An officer approached Su Ling, and the other 3 all went to the truck. The police officer worriedly asked, “Mr. Su, are you okay?”

Su Ling leaned on Gu Liheng’s shoulder and nodded, “Yes.”

Officer: “Don’t worry, we will find out what happened as soon as possible.”

“Thank you.”

The police officer said a few more words before turning to go to the truck.

“I want to stand up,” Su Ling patted Gu Liheng on the shoulder and stood up with Gu Liheng’s help. He moved his feet and said, “I can stand by myself now.”

Gu Liheng’s complexion eased slightly, but he still held Su Ling firmly by his arm.

On the other side, Lin Meng finally stopped crying, and the tears seemed to take away all his fears. His eyes were red, but he was very energetic. He pointed to the vine enthusiastically and asked, “What is this?”

Looking at the enlarged version of Lóng Mo Téng, Su Ling subconsciously touched his wrist. His wrist was smooth, and there was nothing on it. At this moment, the police officer walked back to them and asked, “Mr. Su, is this your spiritual plant? Can you let it loosen its grip? The car’s door is stuck, and we can’t check the driver.”

Su Ling saw that Lóng Mo Téng still maintained its current posture and was a little worried. With Lóng Mo Téng’s low-key way of doing things, it shouldn’t have left itself exposed so long and should have rushed back to his wrist. Right now, it is too eye-catching. He walked towards the truck and said, “I will try.”

Lóng Mo Téng’s stem is about the size of an adult’s wrist at the moment. Its color is shiny black, and it looks very textured, while the color of the leaves becomes very light, as if it is about to break with a touch. Su Ling observed Lóng Mo Téng’s appearance and touched its leaves at the door, “Thank you for saving my friend and me. How are you?”

One word after another appeared in his mind, “Out of control, not good.” Holding tightly, a close-up of Xian Mo Yu appeared in his mind.

Su Ling: “Do you want Xian Mo Yu to help?”

The leaves moved up and down.

Many guests from the swimming pool and the sports centre, plus some passer-by, formed a crowd as they surrounded the scene to check out what happened. The ambulance and more police cars arrived quickly. The police officers who have just arrived quickly pulled the cordon to prevent the crowd from getting closer. Some young people have turned on their bracelets and took photos while standing on tiptoes. Some other people started a live broadcast from their bracelet and wrote, “Super Cool Spiritual Plant makes an awesome appearance!”

This live broadcast room’s popularity has skyrocketed, and a barrage of words like ‘My Gawd!’, ‘Handsome’, and ‘So cool’ filled the chatbox. Then someone asked about what happened. An uncle standing next to the guy who started the live broadcast is a passer-by, and he was very excited. He grabbed the young man’s shoulders and explained with spit flying everywhere. With an exaggerated way of talking like what some uncles and aunties would say, the uncle retold the scene of the spiritual plant saving someone from the truck. The young man wiped his face and tried to get rid of the uncle. However, seeing how the barrage seemed to be crazy, and his popularity skyrocketed, he silently endured the spits while quietly learning the art of speaking.

Su Ling lightly touched Lóng Mo Téng’s leaves and said to the police officer standing near the car, “Excuse me, can you make this space available?”

The police officers cooperatively moved from the position. Su Ling thanked him and took Xian Mo Yu out. Xian Mo Yu found out that something is wrong with its little partner right away and used its roots to entangled with the vines, “Why are you so big?!”

Lóng Mo Téng mentally shared what happened with it. Xian Mo Yu was so angry that its roots slapped the front of the truck. One end of its roots opened up and sprayed poison on it. All of a sudden, the truck’s right front lights melted.

The crowd exclaimed in excitement and became noisy. The officers retreated quickly. The audience in the live broadcast room went crazy, ‘My God, what is this?’

‘It’s so cool!’

‘If I had this kind of spiritual plant, wouldn’t I be powerful?’

‘Its owner is definitely the most unprovoked person.’

It was apparent that Xian Mo Yu is angry. Su Ling lightly squeezed its roots and said, “Don’t be angry, I’m fine. Please help your friend first.”

When the people around saw him doing this, they all gasped. This black root is so poisonous, but that Omega dared to touch it. The terrible things they thought did not happen, and the Omega’s hands were fine. The roots even went and wrapped around the Omega’s wrist. The audience in the live broadcast room instantly turned into lemon essence (sour from jealousy), ‘Where can I find such a cool and well-behaved spiritual plant? Address, fast!’

The roots rubbed against the vine, “You are so kind, thank you for helping me protect my son.”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Stop talking nonsense! That’s my nephew! Hurry up and absorb my vine liquid. I don’t want to be watched. I’m warning you though, don’t absorb the liquid for yourself.”

Xian Mo Yu: “Don’t worry, I don’t want to keep getting bigger, but seriously, you haven’t lost control for a long time.”

Though it is chatting, its roots have started to move. Many roots moved to the surface of the vine’s stem and the front end opened up, clinging to the vine-like a sucker. Soon, the shape of the roots changed slightly, and it was obvious at a glance that there was liquid passing through.

Su Ling was stunned. Xian Mo Yu is absorbing Lóng Mo Téng’s stuff?

Lóng Mo Téng: “I haven’t used my vine liquid in this way for almost 1,000 years. The situation was too urgent, and I couldn’t control it well. If it weren’t for your son, I wouldn’t do it.”

Xian Mo Yu: “You are super awesome! If only I can control your vine liquid and shrink and grow at any time, then I can always protect my son.”

“What stupid thing to say,” Lóng Mo Téng said and added, “this is my characteristic of as Lóng Mo Téng. I already said it, your son will be fine with me here.”

Xian Mo Yu: “You are so kind!”

Lóng Mo Téng’s leaves moved and stabbed the roots, “Why do you always like to talk nonsense?”

Soon, Lóng Mo Téng could be seen getting smaller and smaller at speed visible to the naked eye. Xian Mo Yu retracted part of its roots until Lóng Mo Téng shrunk to Su Ling’s wrist again before retracting all the roots. Su Ling found that the color of Lóng Mo Téng’s stem and leaves are much lighter, and couldn’t help but worry, “Are you still in bad condition?”

The leaves swung left and right. Receiving a positive answer, Su Ling relaxed and squeezed Xian Mo Yu’s root before putting it back into the space storage.

“Mr. Su, I’ll send you back.” The police officer suggested, looking at increasing onlookers.

Su Ling looked at Gu Liheng, who nodded. Lin Meng’s eyes were shining, and his eyes fell on Su Ling’s wrist when he spoke, “Didn’t we said to go for dinner together? Let’s go to President Gu’s house to eat!”

Amused, Su Ling thanked the police officer and nodded. In the car, Lin Meng curiously took Su Ling’s hand and stared at his wrist, “Is it also a Grade S spiritual plant?”

Su Ling acknowledged with an En and said, “Lóng Mo Téng.”

Lin Meng blinked and let go of him. Then he tapped on his bracelet, “I seem to have seen it somewhere.”

Seeing that Lin Meng is checking for some information on his bracelet, Su Ling turned to ask Gu Liheng, “How did you get into a fight with those people?”

Gu Liheng frowned, “Just after we got out of the sports centre, a group of drunk Alphas coincidentally passed by the entrance and were bothering 2 Omegas.”

Xiào Rui turned his head from the front passenger seat and raised his hand, “My fault, I couldn’t hold back and got myself involved,” then he tsk-ed and said, “Thinking back, I think there’s something wrong about it.”

Su Ling thought of the 2 Omegas who screamed and ran away. Lin Meng apparently also thought the same and said, “It turned out that you were trying to help them. If it weren’t for them, we would be standing at the entrance of the swimming pool while waiting for you guys.”

Gu Liheng glanced at the message coming from his bracelet, “There was an accident in the sports centre at that time, so most of the security staff were transferred away.”

“What a coincidence.” Xiào Rui said.

Gu Liheng uttered an En with a sullen face, and the police officer who was driving said, “Don’t worry, those who made troubles were taken away by people from the Ministry of Security. If there is a problem, we can definitely find out.”

Upon arriving at the Gu villa, Lin Meng pestered Su Ling to the spiritual plant room. After Su Ling took out Xian Mo Yu, Lóng Mo Téng immediately rushed to Xian Mo Yu’s petals and clung to them. After a while, the color of its leaves became darker. Standing next to Su Ling, Lin Meng observed closely and asked, “Is this something that was absorbed by Xian Mo Yu earlier? And now it is absorbing it back?”

The roots nodded up and down.

Lin Meng stared at the roots and exclaimed, “Whoa! So smart, can I touch it?”

Xian Mo Yu slapped his forehead lightly and said to its little friend, “The juniors nowadays, they speak so nicely, but they are quite rude.”

Lin Meng touched his forehead with a look of envy, “I really want to raise a Grade S spiritual plant too. So safe, and I can interact with it, just like pets.”

A root rushed in front of Lin Meng; the end opened up and emitted a stench.

“He’s too much! What pet?! I’m Papa!”

Lin Meng wrinkled his face from the stink, clutching his nose, and stepped back.

Su Ling also suffered the smell attack from the side, but the impact was much smaller than Lin Meng. Moreover, he is used to a similar smell from his pheromone, so his reaction was relatively calm. He squeezed Xian Mo Yu’s roots soothingly and said, “Meng Meng is not bad-hearted. He is complimenting you for being amazing and smart. You are not a pet, but my friend.”

“PA~” A root flicked on Su Ling’s forehead.

The flick was quite gentle, but Su Ling touched his forehead dumbfoundedly. Did he make a mistake? After the root hit him, it then drew close. An enlarged word appeared in Su Ling’s mind, “Son!”

Many thanks to MCJohnston for ze kofi (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄) Wahahaha *rolls

Also, I want to thank an anonymous reader TW for the kofi as well ☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆ If you meant for the kofi to be included in the sponsored chapter pool and you’ve forgotten to write it in the kofi, you can still tell me yo

Standing in the spiritual plant room, Su Ling felt a strong sense of surrealism. The spiritual plants are learning how to read! After 3 seconds, he eventually calmed down. This is spiritual plants we are talking about. It’s not surprising to know that they can learn to read since that they can share mental images with him and could draw simple pictures. After all, the spiritual plants in Belle are originally a kind of intelligent organism, but its IQ is not high— or perhaps it’s just the humans who think that they are not intelligent.

Seeing the 2 plants studying hard, Su Ling took Gu Liheng to the sample room earlier and continued to search for a spiritual plant scent that is suitable for Gu Liheng. Although male god’s sleep quality is very good these days, the main reason was they were sleeping together on the same bad; every day before going to bed was sweet torture. If they continue on with this pattern, they would probably get ‘overheated’ one day (from restraining themselves). Right now, there is no suitable fragrance, and they may have to sleep separately later. Su Ling feels that it is crucial to make a fragrance suitable for male god. Male god will have urgent documents to read from time to time during this vacation. That means when he started working again, his work pressure will be even greater.

For the next 2 days, both of them stayed in the sample room most of the time, and all the plant samples were seen and smelled by them. Su Ling sorted out his notes and selected 20 spiritual plants’ scent that seems to work the best. Gu Liheng ordered the people to send these spiritual plants to the villa. At the end of the week in the research building, Su Ling packed up and placed all of his spiritual plant in the space storage one by one. Xian Mo Yu cooperated very well, but Lóng Mo Téng was determined not to get in and stayed wrapped around his wrist. Seeing that Lóng Mo Téng won’t occupy much space and did not affect him, he left it alone. He bid farewell to Director Li and the researcher team and left the association building.

Upon returning to the villa, Su Ling went to the spiritual plant room and took out the spiritual plants. Immediately when Xian Mo Yu came out, Lóng Mo Téng swiftly moves onto Xian Mo Yu’s petals, and then skillfully turned on the computer. Su Ling smiled, he simply prepared the nutrient solution for them and left, not wanting to disturb them from studying. He walked out of the spiritual plant room and asked Gu Liheng, “Have the spiritual plants you bought arrived?”

“They are In the backyard,” Gu Liheng pulled him, feeling a little helpless with the young man’s diligence, “but let’s have dinner first.”

After dinner, Su Ling received a message from Director Wang, it was the program schedule of the science program. He replied after reading it.

“Xian Mo Yu now only drinks nutrient solution. On-site hunting is not suitable. If you want to introduce that to the audience, the spiritual plant registration association has related videos.”

The science program would be broadcasted live throughout the whole process. There will be some interactive sessions, and a large proportion of the audience were students. Since this time it involves spiritual plants, there must be a lot of Omega audiences. Hence, if the hunting process was demonstrated on the spot, many people are likely to get scared.

Director Wang: “I will communicate with the association first, then I’ll contact you later after making some adjustments.”

Su Ling: “Alright.”

After the call, Su Ling took Gu Liheng’s hand to the backyard and looked at the newly bought spiritual plants. Afterwards, Gu Liheng went to the gym room to exercise. Worried that his pheromone would interfere with male god’s concentration, Su Ling didn’t follow and jogged around the villa. Half an hour later, the pheromone scent on his body was particularly strong due to exercise. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked into the living room, heading to the guest room to take a shower.

As he walked quickly through the living room, a whiff of red wine scent that could not be ignored came from behind. When he turned his head, Su Ling saw Gu Liheng in a tank top and shorts coming down the stairs. There was a layer of sweat formed on male god’s body, and his wheat-coloured skin glowed on the firm muscles. Su Ling’s breathing was hitched, his throat moved up and down, and his body temperature started to rise.

Gu Liheng smelled his pheromone and stopped on his track. His voice was hoarse as he said, “Sorry, I didn’t see you around, so I got worried.”

Turning around, Su Ling strode towards Gu Liheng, with eagerness. His reaction caused Gu Liheng’s eyes to darken, and the eyes looking at him seemed to be on fire.

Gu Liheng jumped down the stairs in three or two steps. The two met at the bottom of the stairs, and they started hugging and kissing.

…

When Su Ling’s thoughts were clear again, it is already the next morning. His eyelids moved, and the bracelet rang out. Squinting to see the caller’s name, Su Ling glanced at the time and quickly got up, “Hiss…”

Gu Liheng embraced Su Ling from behind and comforted, “Don’t rush.” He said as he rubbed the sore parts on Su Ling’s body. Then he placed his chin on his(SL) shoulder, rubbing affectionately.

Su Ling happily leaned back on Gu Liheng and connected to the call, “Meng Meng, I will be at Xiao villa before 9.00 am.”

After the initial treatment, Old Master Xiao’s condition has eased. According to his physical condition, the doctor revised the treatment plan and changed the time of using the Redthorn Ball liquid to before going to bed at night. But because the medicine taken is a synthetic medicine with the ball liquid as the primary raw material, it takes time to make it. Su Ling can’t be too late to go to the Xiao villa. These days, except for special circumstances, they usually go before 9.00 am.

Lin Meng: “Why is your voice so hoarse…cough, have you wake up yet?”

Su Ling cleared his throat and said, “Yes, already woke up.”

Lin Meng smiled tacitly, and then asked, “You won’t be staying in the association building from today, right?”

“En, we just returned to the villa yesterday afternoon.”

Lin Meng: “Great, I will talk to you again when you come to Ah Rui’s house.”

Su Ling acknowledged with an En and got up. After he finished his breakfast, he gets ready to go out. As he is about to get into the car, a root emerged from the ground and entangled his foot. He lowered his head and looked at the ground nearby. Fortunately, there is only a small hole. He leaned over and lightly squeezed the root, “I’ll be back later, so let go of my foot, alright?”

The root didn’t let go, and a mental image of 3 little stick figures holding hands appeared in Su Ling’s mind. Next, the word ‘go’ appeared next to the figures with a dot at the end.

Su Ling guessed, “Go together?”

The root swayed happily.

Su Ling finally compromised and said, “All right.” He went to the spiritual plant room and put all of the spiritual plants in his space storage. As for Lóng Mo Téng, it only wanted to stay on his wrist. He rubbed his wrist and walked out of the spiritual plant room. Then he saw male god in a formal suit standing at the door, and couldn’t help but laugh, “Are you going with me too?”

Before this, the male god won’t go with him because both locations were quite close.

“En.” Gu Liheng glanced at his wrist and nodded.

…

Lin Meng smiled ambiguously at Su Ling when he saw Gu Liheng following behind him.

Su Ling went to harvest the raw material from Redthorn Ball and came out of the spiritual plant room. He heard Lin Meng saying to Xiào Rui, “Oh yeah, you and President Gu can go to play ball!”

Seeing that Su Ling has come out, Lin Meng immediately waved to him. With a look of expectation, he said, “Ling Ling, let’s go swimming.”

“Alpha can’t get in the Omega’s swimming pool, so Ah Rui can’t accompany me, and President Gu can’t go with you either. But they can play sports in the nearby sports centre.”

Su Ling is a little moved, exercise is always in his mind. Rather than jogging, he prefers swimming or riding a bicycle. However, Planet Belle has no bicycles! Everything is automated, and there is not manual transportation, so he can’t achieve the feeling of exercising. Moreover, male god should also make more friends. However, he hesitated and said, “Recently, I had too much exposure on the Internet, and it may not be convenient to go out. Li Heng’s villa has a swimming pool. Should we go to the villa instead?”

Gu Liheng immediately turned to look at Su Ling. This is the first time he heard the young man calling his name, other than on the bed.

Sensing his gaze, Su Ling raised his eyebrows and smiled at male god. He has thought about it and decided to just call the name naturally. Just that usually when there are only two of them, he rarely calls male god by name.

“That’s boring.” Lin Meng tapped on his bracelet and opened the pictures of the swimming pool. Then he got up and sat down beside Su Ling.

“Look, this is the swimming pool I often go to. The swimming pool has a large area and has various scenery simulation styles, including oceans, seabeds, glaciers, and snow-capped mountains. It looks very realistic, and it feels great.”

Su Ling was very moved as he looked at the pictures. The glacier-themed swimming pool was surrounded by icebergs, which seemed very cold, but the actual temperature is very high.

Lin Meng: “If you are afraid of being found out, we will book the section. The pool area is smaller, but it’s enough for us two.”

“Go and play.” Gu Liheng looked at Su Ling with pity in his eyes.

When the young man saw the pictures, there was an apparent surprise as if he had never seen it before. Gu Liheng recalled what he heard about the young man’s experiences. Given the neglect he had in the Su family, the young man probably had never been to a theme swimming pool. Maybe he hadn’t even been to an amusement park before. As he is thinking about it, Gu Liheng subconsciously recalled that there’s a theme park suitable for Omega in Belle City.

Su Ling smiled and said, “Are you going to the sports centre with Xiào Rui?”

Gu Liheng nodded, “En, it’s right next to the swimming pool. We can have lunch outside at noon.”

Su Ling was particularly moved by this proposal, “Then it’s decided.”

Lin Meng’s big eyes were curved up with great joy, and he hugged Su Ling, “It’s great. I’m really looking forward to going with my friends. It’s too boring to go alone.” He got up and pulled Su Ling’s hand, “They sell everything there, so we just go straight away.”

Xiào Rui helplessly said with a pampering tone, “What are you rushing for? Slow down.”

Lin Meng: “We can enjoy the fun longer if we go early!”

Gu Liheng and Xiào Rui sent them to the swimming pool. They arranged to meet at the entrance of the swimming pool at 11.45 am. After the Omegas entered the building, they went to the sports centre together.

At the front desk, Lin Meng bought two new swimsuits directly, as well as swim rings and water guns. The waiter took them into the entrance of Glacier Pool and said, “Please feel free to contact us if you need anything.”

Lin Meng nodded, swiped his card, and the door opened from both sides.

Su Ling’s field of vision became bright and white. The temperature hadn’t changed, but he felt much refreshed.

Lin Meng took off his isolator and jumped in excitement, “Ahh, so comfortable! I can’t wait to get into the water.” He shook the swimsuit in his hand and said, “I’m going to change.”

Su Ling also took his isolator and went to the changing room. He changed into an Omega swimsuit, which is actually shorts and vest. He pulled on the vest because it was a little uncomfortable; back in his world, only wearing shorts will do. He left the changing room, and Lin Meng whistled, “Wow, Ling Ling is so pale!”

Su Ling: “…You are pale as well.”

Leaning over, Lin Meng put his arm next to Su Ling’s arm to compare. Both of their skin is pale, and it looked a little dazzling under the virtual glacier’s white lights. He pulled Su Ling with a smile, and they walked by the pool, “Can you swim?”

Su Ling nodded, Lin Meng let go of him, “Then let’s jump in together?”

Su Ling: “Sure.”

Both of them bend their knees and jump into the water neatly. In the water, a refreshing sensation swept across the body. Su Ling could felt the pores all over his body were open, which is very comfortable. Coming up for air, he stroked his wet hair and looked around. The scenery made him feel like he is surrounded by glaciers, and it makes his heart swell.

Lin Meng poked his head out beside Su Ling, “That felt awesome! Wanna compare speed?”

Su Ling raised his eyebrows, “Okay.”

When the two were tired from swimming, they sat on the reclining chairs to rest, drank juice and chatted. After some rest, they went into the water again. Later on, they playfully shoot each other with the water gun. Although it was childish, they still played happily. They stayed until it’s almost lunchtime before reluctantly leaving.

After they left the swimming pool, Lin Meng looked around and said, “Hmm, Ah Rui and President Gu’s side is not over yet?”

Su Ling glanced at the time, and saw that it’s only 11.40 am so he said, “Wait a bit, there are 5 minutes left.”

Lin Meng: “Shall we go to find them next door?”

Su Ling grabbed Lin Meng, who was about to leave and said, “It’s all Alpha over there. It’s not suitable for us to go.”

He looked at Lin Meng with a little helplessness in his tone, and suddenly remembered some plots in the novel. Lin Meng is a standard protagonist who is innocent, kind-hearted, silly, and sweet. He does whatever he wants, often causing a lot of troubles but managed to encounter many interesting things as well. Thinking of this, Su Ling suddenly felt a bit old.

“AHH…” Suddenly, a scream came from the right side, and 2 Omegas screamed and ran away in panic.

Lin Meng hurriedly ran over towards the commotion, “That’s the direction of the sports centre. Could it be something has happened?!”

Su Ling couldn’t pull Lin Meng back, and he didn’t want as well because he was a little worried. With male god and Xiào Rui’s identity, there should be no one stupid enough to trouble them. But thinking that something happened that may be related to male god, Su Ling cannot stand still.

Seeing Xian Mo Yu agreed, Su Ling couldn’t help but laugh. He held the roots and lightly squeezed it, “Do you like star coins?” To agree right away upon hearing that there is an appearance fee.

The roots moved up and down. If I have money, I can raise my son!

Su Ling: “The raw materials you provided can sell for a lot of money. If you like star coins, do you want me to change some into cash for you?”

All of Xian Mo Yu’s attention was on ‘sold for a lot of money,’ so it didn’t hear the rest of the sentence. The front end of its roots stiffened, then a large number of roots waved happily in the air.

“Hahaha, did you hear that,” Xian Mo Yu showed off to its friend, “My poison sold for a lot of money!”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Idiot, didn’t you said earlier that you didn’t sell any?”

“Well, I saw it in the space storage a few days ago, hahaha,” Xian Mo Yu was thrilled, “I’m really amazing.”

Seeing it so happy, Su Ling decided to get some cash when he has time. He sent a message to Director Wang from the popular science program, “Xian Mo Yu agreed, but we have something to do in these 2 days.”

Director Wang: “Great. As for the appearance fee, is it alright if we give the same amount as a top star’s fee?”

Su Ling: “Yes.”

Director Wang: “I will contact you after things are finalized at my side, then we’ll discuss further.”

Su Ling: “Okay.”

When Ye Lei walked in, he saw Xian Mo Yu’s action and smiled, “It’s in a good mood. We will start to test the effect of its fragrance at 8.30 am, is that okay?”

Su Ling: “Yes, are all the testers here?”

Ye Lei nodded.

Su Ling lightly squeezed the roots, “In the experiments later, you just need to release your fragrance as usual, don’t spray any poison.”

The roots moved up and down to show that it understood.

Su Ling, Gu Liheng, and Ye Lei moved to the monitoring room next door. Boss and his team members will stay outside the experiment room to look after the testers. At 8.30 am, the experiment officially started, and the first pair of AO walked into the spiritual plant room.

Ye Lei pointed to the next screen, “This pair of AO has a compatibility rate of 11%, which is the lowest in the group. Today, we will test the rates from low to high compatibility.”

Nodded, Su Ling turned to look at the surveillance. After the pair entered the room, they looked at Xian Mo Yu with surprise and excitement. They wanted to get closer but didn’t dare. Too focused on Xian Mo Yu, the pair has completely forgotten their purpose in the experiment.

Ye Lei turned on the microphone and reminded, “Please take off your isolator and feel if there are any reactions.”

The two men came back to their senses, they took off their isolator, and looked at each other nervously. After 10 minutes, both didn’t blush, nor their heartbeats speed up, and they left the spiritual plant room calmly.  Ye Lei activated the ventilation system and waited until the system display showed no residual pheromone left in the room before informing Boss to let the second pair in.

The entire process was extremely dull. Each pair gave the same copy-and-paste reactions. They enter the room, get shocked and excited upon seeing Xian Mo Yu. Then they took off their isolator and left the room with excitement and joy after 10 minutes. It wasn’t until the AO compatibility rate exceeded 80% that that pair began to respond to each other’s pheromone. But they could still preserve their rational thinking.

Ye Lei said with excitement, “This is amazing. Xian Mo Yu is a natural tranquilizer/sedative.” He said to Boss, “The compatibility rate of the last pair is 93%. Get ready with inhibitors; the scene may get out of control.”

Boss nodded and let the last pair enter the spiritual plant room.

Su Ling stared at the holographic screen. The Omega fell on the Alpha with blurry eyes the moment the experiment started, like a thirsty fish, tightly embracing the Alpha. Did he do the same thing when he was with male god? Then his face reddened because his actions might be even more exaggerated. After all, he has been a real man for 20 years, so he is not easily shy, unlike the native Omegas here. Gu Liheng’s gaze fell on his face, and the hand holding him tightened slightly. Su Ling gave a light cough without turning his head to look at male god.

Watching the experiments, Xian Mo Yu and Lóng Mo Téng discussed the test subjects enthusiastically. Xian Mo Yu shook its roots, “It seems that no one here is comparable to my daughter-in-law. My son sure has good eyes, as good as mine. “

Lóng Mo Téng’s leaves stood up, “Idiot! Is it time to brag? I don’t want to watch the human’s live ‘action’ movie.”

Xian Mo Yu: “Then should I separate them?” As it said that, its roots rushed out quickly to the hugging AO pair. It coiled around their legs, trying to separate the two.

It actually wanted to tie around their upper body, but both were holding onto each other tightly. Its roots couldn’t tie them separately, so Xian Mo Yu chose their legs instead.

Ye Lei was instructing Boss through the microphone, “Inject inhibitors into the tester…” when he saw what happened at the holographic screen. He immediately said, “Su Ling, stop Xian Mo Yu!”

Su Ling held his forehead. The pair of AO is obviously frightened by the roots. When the roots pulled at their feet, they held each other even tighter. This time, there are no more amorous feelings, just fright. He picked up the microphone and said, “Xian Mo Yu, quickly let them go. They are scared of you.”

The roots retracted back to the flower bud, and Xian Mo Yu said, “How timid, my son is more courageous!”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Idiot, you could have just tied both of them together and throw them out?”

“Oh, I will do it now.” Its roots were about to move when Boss opened the door and entered the room.

“Well, you are not needed anymore,” Lóng Mo Téng said.

Boss helped to inject inhibitor for the pair. Unaware that they have just escaped from Xian Mo Yu’s further action, they continue to stare at Xian Mo Yu with panic in their eyes. When Su Ling walked into the spiritual plant room, the roots rushed to wrap around his hand. He smiled at the AO pair and said, “I’m sorry, it’s not malicious,” he coughed slightly, “It probably wants to help separate you guys.”

Hearing that, the AO pair looked awkward, but their emotion has calmed a lot. The Alpha said, “As expected of a Grade S spiritual plant, it is really smart.”

Being praised, Xian Mo Yu felt very happy, and its roots immediately waving and dancing in the air.

The AO pair saw that, and their expression became more relaxed. Ye Lei asked how they felt during the experiment. After recording their input, Boss sent them out. After a while, Boss came in again and asked Su Ling, “The testers are asking if there are any similar types of fragrances for sale? They would like to book in advance if it’s available soon.”

Su Ling: “Not yet.”

Boss nodded and went out.

Ye Lei: “Do the raw materials provided by Xian Mo Yu have a similar scent? You should be possible to produce fragrances with the same effect.”

Su Ling nodded, “Yes, but I can’t sell any for the time being as the military needs the raw materials.”

Ye Lei nodded, “Then there is no way. Thanks for your hard work. I will continue to observe Xian Mo Yu in the afternoon, so you can do your own thing.”

After he finished speaking, Su Ling looked at Xian Mo Yu and fell into deep thoughts. Xian Mo Yu’s black liquid has a foul smell, while the red one is fragrant. The cure for treating the wounds caused by dark matters needed both types to work. Thinking of this, he sent a message to Ni An, “Doctor Ni An, the ratio of black liquid and red liquid needed to make the cure, is it 1:1?”

The red liquid effect made him feel touched, and Su Ling wanted to use it for himself. Since he and male god just completed a marking, they are in a relatively stable state. But if they removed their isolator, their emotions can easily go out of control due to their high compatibility rate. Moreover, his physical stamina is too weak now. Even if he wanted to follow the mood, his body can’t stand it at all. This caused both of them to feel uncomfortable from holding back.

Having the isolator on can prevent them from going out of control. When he is sleeping beside male god, his(GLH) sleep quality has improved. It’s challenging to adapt to the previous state, and he doesn’t want to sleep separately at night, which meant that an isolator is also required at night. However, keeping the isolator on 24/7 is not good for the glands, so using fragrance is the most appropriate way.

Ni An: “It’s 1:1. Is there any problem?”

Su Ling sighed; he won’t be able to save extra red liquid for the time being. Nevertheless, he told Ni An about the red liquid effect, but he didn’t say he wanted to use it for himself.

Ni An: “If a man-made cure can be developed earlier, the red liquid could be used to make fragrance products.”

Su Ling: “En, but I know how serious things are, sorry to disturb you.”

After the message conversation, Su Ling gave up the idea of using red liquid. His eyes briefly glanced past Lóng Mo Téng, and he was suddenly reminded that there is a big leaf in his space storage. At the same time, he wondered what the raw material from Grade S spiritual plant Lóng Mo Téng can do?

Considering how Lóng Mo Téng was in self-deception and did not want to be discovered, he decided not to attract attention and test it himself after returning home.

…

Gu Liheng ruffled Su Ling’s hair and said, “It’s time for lunch.” Su Ling smiled, and the two left the spiritual plant room. After lunch, Gu Liheng asked his people to send a wad of cash to the association.

Initially, Su Ling thought to go out and get the cash out himself, but he was recognized when he walked to the association’s office building, so he dispelled the idea of going out. Taking out the cash, he placed one banknote on Xian Mo Yu’s petals, “Do you like it?”

“Ka-” Xian Mo Yu hadn’t given a response yet, but Lóng Mo Téng, which had been motionless,
stretched out its leaves abruptly and pierced the banknote. The roots entangled the broken banknote and passed it back to Su Ling.

Taking back the banknote, Su Ling glanced at Lóng Mo Téng on the petals. So one like money, but the other hated it? He thought for a while and placed all the banknotes on the ground. Then he lightly squeezed the roots and said, “I’ll just put it here where your roots can touch it.”

The roots bundled up the banknotes and returned it into Su Ling’s hand. In Su Ling’s mind, a scene of elders giving red envelopes to children appeared.

Su Ling: “…you are giving them to me?”

The roots moved up and down.

Su Ling suddenly felt like he has mistaken something. Actually, Xian Mo Yu didn’t like the money?

Watching the whole interaction at the side, Lóng Mo Téng couldn’t stand it anymore and said, “From now on, you and I will learn to write together!” After announcing the decision to its little friend, its vine broke off from the main stem. The end of the vine grew longer to reach Su Ling’s wrist, and its emerald green leaves were gleaming. Next, a close-up mental image of a personal computer[1] appeared in Su Ling’s mind.

Xian Mo Yu’s roots looked stunned by its friend’s decision, so Lóng Mo Téng added, “You illiterate dummy! Don’t you want to communicate with your son normally? Don’t forget, you promised me you will get your son to buy me a computer.”

The roots moved, and another mental image appeared in Su Ling’s mind. He could easily tell who was sharing the images. Feeling a little surprised, he asked, “You don’t want the money; you just want to use the money to buy computers?”

The roots shook and nodded. Finally, it fell limply on the vine.

Xian Mo Yu: “I must study hard!” It is too difficult to communicate smoothly.

Su Ling couldn’t understand the full meaning of it, but one thing is certain, both plants wanted a computer. Could it be they were too bored? No matter what, he has decided to buy one for them. After all, a lot of his money was earned by Xian Mo Yu. He placed an order right away on the Internet, and it was delivered one hour later.

The personal computer is much smaller than notebooks in his previous world, it’s about the size of a mineral water bottle cap, and the display is on a holographic screen. He stuck the personal computer on Xian Mo Yu’s petal and taught them how to use it. In his mind, Lóng Mo Téng kept sharing the scene of a kindergarten class. With much awkwardness, he double confirmed what it means. After he somewhat determines the meaning, with him asking questions and the plant swinging its leaves up and down, Su Ling downloaded many kindergarten learning coursewares for the plants.

The feeling that he is raising children became deeper.

The spiritual plant room became extremely quiet with the personal computer, except for some voices coming out of the children’s literacy courseware. Xian Mo Yu’s roots were soaking in the nutrient solution container. But if they moved, they will be pierced by Lóng Mo Téng’s leaves. Lóng Mo Téng did nothing other than stabbing the roots and occasionally tapping on the holographic screen.

[1] The author didn’t mention much of their high tech stuff so Banana is throwing random guess at it. The bracelet everyone wore is probably their smart phone but smarter, liek they can do practically everything with their bracelet. Then there’s a personal computer thingy that equivalent to laptop, me think.

Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.

30 more chapters and we are done with this novel, yasss~~ That’s about 4 months folks <3 <3 <3

Su Ling set his line in Do Not Disturb mode for unknown numbers. Then he plunged into the soft pillow and rubbed his face against it.

Gu Liheng rubbed his fluffy hair lightly and said, “This doesn’t sound right. You sleep more for a while, and I will check what happened.”

“Doesn’t sound right?” Su Ling turned his head to look at Gu Liheng.

Gu Liheng leaned against the head of the bed, and expressionlessly looked at the holographic screen from his bracelet; he seemed serious. That got Su Ling to sober up right away. He got up and looked at the holographic screen as well.

Gu Liheng glanced at Su Ling and pulled the collar of his pajamas higher. His voice was deep as he said, “Don’t catch a cold.”

Su Ling raised his eyebrows and lowered his head. Then he obediently buttoned up his pajamas.

“This is the statement from the Imperial Military Hospital’s official website,” Gu Liheng retracted his gaze and pointed to the holographic screen. “There is no mention of Xian Mo Yu’s owner.”

Su Ling read out the paragraph in a low voice, “After Marshal Manton’s condition improved, many people asked if there is a new treatment found. The answer is yes, and it’s the Grade S spiritual plant Xian Mo Yu discovered recently. Its raw materials can remove dark matter particles and treat the damage caused by the particles. The research institute is currently researching on recreating the cure artificially so everyone can rest assured.”

After Su Ling finished reading, Gu Liheng gave him an analysis, “In order to protect your safety, your information should not be disclosed unless it cannot be concealed. The current situation is very unreasonable. The military should not make such a major mistake.”

Only then Su Ling realized and said, “Oh yeah! Being woken up all of a sudden, I didn’t think about that earlier. When I registered Xian Mo Yu before, my information was hidden, so there’s no reason why I suddenly get exposed now.”

Gu Liheng: “The worst possibility is that there is a problem with the military personnel. I don’t trust your security with them. How about I get the Snow Leopard…”

As Gu Liheng was talking, Su Ling’s bracelet rang. He took a glance at it and told Gu Liheng, “It’s the Chief of Security department.” He turned on the speaker and said hello, “Chief Li.”

Chief Li’s voice was calm, and his speaking style was straightforward, “The news that you are Xian Mo Yu’s owner has spread online. After investigation, it is related to your classmate Zhao Qi.”

Su Ling was surprised by the information, “Zhao Qi?”

Chief Li: “Yes, my people are interrogating him. How is your relationship with him? Is he a threat to your personal safety?”

Su Ling: “Our relationship is not good. As for personal safety,” he glanced at Gu Liheng subconsciously before continuing, “I know he doesn’t like me, but whether this dislike will prompt him to hurt me, I’m not sure.”

Chief Li: “Okay, I will update you when the interrogation result comes out. Don’t worry, we will ensure your safety.”

Su Ling: “Thank you.”

…

Zhao Family

Zhao Qi’s face turned pale, and his lips trembling slightly as he looked at the two Alpha police officers with a cold expression in front of him.

The police officer circled several replies he posted anonymously on the Internet and asked, “How did you get the photos of Su Ling staying in the association and also the military department going to the association at night?”

In his anonymous replies, Zhao Qi revealed that Xian Mo Yu’s owner is Su Ling. It is precisely because of the two photos he attached in his reply that most netizens believed his words, and the news spread quickly online.

The officer clicked on the second photo, “This angle is completely different from the picture in the
previous news report. Did you get someone to monitor him? Why monitor him?”

Zhao Qi bit his lower lip. He wanted to tell the truth, but he didn’t dare. After the birthday party that day, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Su Ling doesn’t look right. He suspected that Su Ling is in the same situation as him, except that he reborn in his own body while Su Ling has changed into another person. He wanted to know if his suspicion is right, and also how much Su Ling knew about the future, so he asked someone to follow Su Ling. But he can’t say that because his own experience is also unbelievable as well, and he doesn’t want to be treated as an abnormal person.

Zhao Qi woke up very early this morning due to insomnia and saw the news about Xian Mo Yu. Many netizens were trying to guess who the owner is. When he saw someone saying, ‘In order to protect the owner, his/her identity will definitely not disclose to the public,’ he immediately thought of Su Ling.

Su Ling is the most suspicious person, regardless of whether he is the owner or not. As long as he can make people believe that Su Ling is, then Su Ling will be in danger. If he is not the real owner, at least Su Ling will be deemed trying to get famous when the truth is revealed. Everything was developing according to his expectations, and he was happy to see the rumors circling on the Internet, but he did not expect that someone from the military will come to find him.

How could Su Ling be so lucky!

This fact caused Zhao Qi to think that Su Ling really knows about the future, even more than he did. That’s why he could find so many precious spiritual plants and can get to know Gu Liheng before him. Zhao Qi knows very well that even if he denies the police officer’s accusation, he will be found out quickly, so he confessed with a crying tone in his voice, “Yes, I asked someone to monitor him. I was only jealous, and I didn’t think to do anything bad.”

The police officer’s tone was as cold as his expression, “Jealous?”

“Yes,” Zhao Qi nodded, “Su Ling used to be very silent and timid, but suddenly became brilliant. And he managed to get together with President Gu. Before this, at Madam Gu’s birthday party, he was in the limelight and stole all the attention from me. I am very envious of him.”

He glanced at the two officers before adding, “I just want to know why he changed so much. I am jealous of him, and I want to learn from him to become better.”

However, to Zhao Qi’s disappointment, the officers remained motionless and were not curious about Su Ling’s changes at all.

Police Officer: “Your actions have seriously violated the privacy of a citizen and are potentially dangerous. This is a penalty ticket. Keep a safe distance from Su Ling within one year.”

Zhao Qi bit his lower lip and nodded honestly. After they left, he grabbed the pillow on the sofa and flung it to the ground. Why did he(ZQ) get reborn? Isn’t it so that he has a chance to retaliate against the people from his past? Why is there a Su Ling in this lifetime?!

“Qi Qi,” Zhao Qing walked in, picked up the pillow, and patted him at the back. Then he sat beside him with a calm face, “You are too foolish, are you still thinking to cause trouble for Su Ling?”

Zhao Qi raised his voice, “Brother, there is definitely something wrong with him! How can a person change so much?!”

Zhao Qing: “What if there is? Did he give you any trouble? Or did he troubled our Zhao family? What does this have to do with us?”

“But…” Zhao Qi was stunned, his expression dazed.

Zhao Qing sighed and patted his face, “Look at you. You always think about what other people do. You are not living well yourself.”

…

After the call, Su Ling said to Gu Liheng, “It has nothing to do with the military department, no need to call someone.”

Gu Liheng nodded, his gaze fell on his face with a focused look, so Su Ling touched his face and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“I remember,” Gu Liheng paused, “When we first met, you asked if I knew Zhao Qi.”

Su Ling immediately remembered the same scene. That was when he saw Gu Liheng signing his name on the contract. He was so surprised because Gu Liheng has the same name as his male god in the novel. Caught off guard and also wanted to confirm male god’s identity, he blurted out that question.

“En, I did,” he lightly squeezed his fingers, “I have a bad relationship with him, and you rich families always know each other, so I’m afraid that you have a good relationship with him.”

Gu Liheng: “It’s no wonder you breathed a sigh of relief at the time,” his jaw stretched slightly. “You had a bad relationship because both of you liked Xiào Rui?”

Su Ling’s eyes widened, “You acted so serious just to ask this question?” He was shocked by his expression earlier, thinking that male god is doubting his identity. Turns out he was only jealous!

Gu Liheng hugged him, “Sorry, I won’t ask, don’t be angry. I just regret that I didn’t know you earlier. I want to have more of you, including your first relationship.” He hoped that all of the young man’s life experiences belonged to him.

As soon as Gu Liheng said that, the body’s owner’s confession cards appeared in Su Ling’s mind. He was very helpless about this because he couldn’t refute this matter, nor could he deny the feelings of the other Su Ling. Regardless, Su Ling kissed Gu Liheng on his cheek, “I’m not angry. But if you really did question my feelings, I will be angrier than this.”

“No!” Gu Liheng let go of Su Ling and looked at him very seriously, “Absolutely not. No Alpha is luckier than me, to be able to feel deeply loved.” The young man’s feelings were straightforward and passionate, and he loves it to his bones.

Su Ling’s eyes curved up, and he threw himself on his male god. Then he placed his hand on his shoulder, “This is the best compliment I’ve heard. I’m a super qualified boyfriend, right?”

“You are.” Gu Liheng rubbed his head, “I’m not good enough.”

Su Ling poked him in the face and laughed, “No, you are fine. You have to trust my eyes.”

A smile appeared in Gu Liheng’s eyes, and the corners of his mouth were raised slightly. Su Ling leaned closer to tell him, “You smiled.”

Gu Liheng was stunned to hear that, then he smiled deeper, “I’m very happy.”

Su Ling was happy as well, “When the research is over, can I go to see your doctor with you?”

“Alright.” Gu Liheng nodded.

After the two of them had breakfast, Su Ling received a call from the director of the Imperial Science program again. He said, “Xian Mo Yu has always only existed in the legend. I hope you and the spiritual plant can be on our show and let the audience know more about Xian Mo Yu.”

Su Ling knows very well that the main character is Xian Mo Yu, and he is just a passerby, so he replied, “Grade S spiritual plant has its own thoughts. I have to ask its opinions before giving you an answer.”

“Alright, and the appearance fee is open for discussion. Please give me a reply if you have the decision. If you can join us, I will have to schedule your show so that it can go on air as soon as possible.”

Su Ling: “Okay.”

He explained the situation to Gu Liheng, and the two went to the spiritual plant room. Su Ling lightly squeezed the root that came to entangle his hand and told it about the program, “Are you interested?”

Xian Mo Yu didn’t reply right away but showed a close-up picture in his mind: a star coin symbol.

Su Ling: “…There is an appearance fee, which should not be low.”

“Hahaha~” Xian Mo Yu’s roots rubbed against Lóng Mo Téng as it communicated with its little friend, “I can make money and raise my son!”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Idiot! Didn’t you give him your poison and let him sell it?”

Xian Mo Yu made a big crying expression, “It is illegal to murder, and the poison does not worth any money. I give it to my son every day. I found out a few days ago that he had saved it and didn’t sell any[1].”

“Stop your worthless crying,” Lóng Mo Téng, “just go on the show and earn money ba.”

The roots standing next to Su Ling moved up and down.

[1] Which means SL can’t make use of its black liquid, it’s illegal to kill people lol. And despite XMY gave raw materials to SL, SL didn’t sell it so it didn’t manage to earn any money for SL.

Sponsored chapter – Thanks for the kofi Anonymous-D, Lauren & Lan~! Banana is very grateful (TAT)/

After Su Ling hugged Lóng Mo Téng, its softened leaves rubbed against his palm, then stopped moving. Su Ling turned to ask Xian Mo Yu, “It is not going into the space storage with you?”

The roots nodded, so Su Ling let Lóng Mo Téng stay on his wrist and put Xian Mo Yu in the storage.

Gu Liheng stared at Su Ling’s left wrist for 2 seconds. Then he held onto his(SL) right hand and enveloped it firmly with his hand.

Throwing a glance at his male god, Su Ling only raised an eyebrow and smiled, letting him(GLH) lead him forward. He said to Ye Lei, “We can go now.” Holding hands with male god, he followed Ye Lei out of the spiritual plant room and took a car from the dormitory’s back door. After driving for about 20 minutes, the car stopped at the edge of a valley. Bird chirpings and animal roars could be heard faintly from the depths of the valley. Su Ling lowered the car window and looked out the window. On the north side of the valley is a large forest, and the end is rolling mountains.

Ye Lei shared the holographic screen from his bracelet. The screen was divided into 9 boxes, which are surveillance videos from all over the valley. The field of vision is very wide, so the terrain where the surveillance equipment is placed should be relatively high. He asked the team’s Boss[1] at the driver’s seat, “These are the preparations you made yesterday?”

The team’s Boss nodded and replied, “En.”

Ye Lei turned to look at Su Ling, “Can you put Xian Mo Yu here and let it go in by itself? Or do you need Boss and his team to escort you in?”

Su Ling: “I’ll ask it, but it should be fine on its own.”

Ye Lei: “Okay, in order to ensure the whole process is monitored, we will put two micro-monitors on its petals. Would you please discuss with Xian Mo Yu if it’s alright?”

Nodding, Su Ling got out of the car and let Xian Mo Yu out. As soon as it is out, some of its roots rushed towards the valley. Su Ling told Xian Mo Yu about the arrangement. When it heard that the monitors are for Ye Lei and the others to see its heroic hunting postures, it agreed without hesitation.

The team’s Boss demonstrated how to install the monitors, and Su Ling helped place 2 soybean-sized monitors on Xian Mo Yu’s petals. After setting it up, he touched the petals and said, “Just spent 3 days in the forest like how you did before. We will be looking at you through the monitors.”

The roots wrapped around his wrist and rubbed against Lóng Mo Téng, who was pretending to be dead. Su Ling laughed, “It will watch the monitors together with us.”

Xian Mo Yu retracted its roots and moved towards the valley. About 10 meters away from where the car stopped, the ground under the flower bud sunken, and it disappeared from the ground.

Ye Lei hurriedly called up the monitor on the petals, but it was dark all around. Only the sounds made by the roots when it hit the ground or wall could be heard.

“Isn’t it too corrosive?” Old Third in another car sighed.

This sigh reached its peak on the second day of surveillance.

The night before, Xian Mo Yu made an underground tunnel all the way to the middle of the valley. After appearing on the ground, it emitted a stench and scared off all the animals around it. Then it folded its petals to sleep. At noon, it opened its petals and shimmered in the sun. Many animals were attracted by its fragrance and approached Xian Mo Yu, so the area became quite lively.

On the other hand, its roots stretched around to search for food. When it discovered a huge beast, its roots will gather up to pinpoint the location. Then it will change its smell, causing the surrounding animals to run away again. It took the opportunity to entangle the beast; the top of the roots opened up and sprayed black liquid. In less than half a minute, the huge beast completely melted into a puddle and was absorbed by the roots.

The breeze blows, the luscious green grass sway, and the flowers next to it are blooming prettily as if nothing happened.

Except for Su Ling and Gu Liheng, the people in front of the holographic screen didn’t look very good. Su Ling has seen the process several times, so he could remain calm. As for Gu Liheng, he is always calm. Ye Lei stroked his stomach, his face turned pale, “How terrifying. Fortunately, spiritual plants won’t attack humans for no reason.”

The team’s Boss nodded in agreement.

In 3 days, Xian Mo Yu hunted 3 times, and each time it’s killing was immaculate and tidy. The last 2 times, it didn’t use its smell but stayed hidden after finding the target. Then it simply entangled the prey and pulled it to its flower stamen to melt and absorb. When Xian Mo Yu is not hunting, it always moves around and occasionally uses its roots to tease animals and butterflies. More than often, it will just sway its roots to entertain itself or try to communicate with the low-level spiritual plants in the valley. Overall, it was a leisurely life for Xian Mo Yu since it has no rivals/predators in the valley.

3 days later, at 5.00 pm, Su Ling informed Xian Mo Yu that the time is up through a communication device. Very quickly, it returned to the parking place. As soon as Xian Mo Yu saw Su Ling, its roots entangled him and gave him a hug. At the same time, a root went to his wrist to greet its friend.

“Hahaha, do I look super handsome during hunting?”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Heh, you have no sense of beauty at all.”

Su Ling touched the roots and felt that it is slightly cool as usual. Then he looked at his palms before breathing out a sigh of relief, very clean. Xian Mo Yu’s hunting process was too cruel to watch, and the way it moved around was kind of strange. That’s why he was worried about the hygiene of the roots. Now it seems that its self-cleaning ability is super strong.

Beside Su Ling, Gu Liheng frowned slightly. He pinched the roots on Su Ling’s shoulders and said, “Let go of him.”

Xian Mo Yu complained to its little friend again, “Look at my daughter-in-law, that’s too much! I haven’t seen my son for 3 days! What’s wrong hugging with my son?!”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Stop your stupid complaining. I already said it, the keyword is possessive, understand?”

The tip of a root bends forward and gently smacked the back of Gu Liheng’s hand to express its dissatisfaction. Then it released Su Ling.

Gu Liheng didn’t care about that little strength; he swiftly pulled Su Ling to his embrace.

An angry emoticon with raised eyebrows appeared in Su Ling’s mind. It makes him really wanted to laugh out helplessly. He lightly squeezed the root on his wrist and said, “Don’t be angry. You are great these days!” The roots beside him swayed around and immediately became happy again.

That makes Gu Liheng stared thoughtfully at the roots.

Ye Lei: “We will start to study the details tomorrow, mainly to test the effect of its fragrance. We found 10 pairs of AO with a compatibility rate from 10 to 100. But just in case, we will need you to work hard tomorrow to follow up with the whole process.”

Su Ling: “No problem.”

Back in the dormitory, Su Ling put Xian Mo Yu into the spiritual plant room. Lóng Mo Téng quickly left his hand and return to disguise as Xian Mo Yu’s leaves. Xian Mo Yu’s roots went to soak in the nutrient solution, and it was delighted.

Su Ling smiled upon seeing this. He went to dinner with Gu Liheng and return to their bedroom after a walk. Sitting on the sofa, he put his hand on Gu Liheng’s shoulder and looked at him closely, “What are you thinking about?” He tilted his head, “You have been thinking about something since Xian Mo Yu returned from the valley.”

Gu Liheng grabbed Su Ling’s hand with a serious expression, “I’m thinking about the feasibility of Alpha communicating with spiritual plants? Mainly Grade S spiritual plants.”

Su Ling blinked and laughed, “Could it be you really felt jealous of Xian Mo Yu?”

“Yes.” Gu Liheng honestly replied, “I don’t know what it said to you, and I don’t like this feeling.”

Su Ling: “In fact, I can’t fully understand what it really said. It communicates with me through sharing the images it experienced and drawing simple strokes. I can determine its meaning through emotional changes and inquiries.”

He thought for a while and added, “Grade S spiritual plant can understand what we are saying. So, if we want to communicate with them, it’s fine to just understand what they want to convey.”

Gu Liheng pondered, “When it conveys information, there should be energy fluctuations. Maybe by capturing the fluctuations, we can find patterns and translate them into understandable meanings. Just like understanding a new language and then turning it into a common language.”

Su Ling understood the basics, but he couldn’t think of how to achieve each step, “Isn’t it difficult?”

Gu Liheng replied with seriousness, “Not necessarily. We can only know if it really works by setting up a research team to study the feasibility.”

Since Gu Liheng had an idea in mind, he contacted his people right away and set up a research team.

As Gu Liheng is talking to his people, Su Ling’s bracelet rang. There’s a call from an unknown number, which starts with 0. Su Ling was a little surprised because the number that starts with 0 is used by people from senior management of Planet Belle. He subconsciously sat upright and connected the call, “Hello.”

“Hello.”

The other party’s voice was very straightforward, speaking in simple words but decisive. However, the speaker’s tone sounded weak, “I am Manton, sorry for the interruption.”

Su Ling quickly said, “It’s no bother at all. It’s great to know that you are fine.”

“Thank you very much, so I wanted to call you to express my gratitude.” Manton paused, his voice deep as he added, “I haven’t been so relaxed in many years.”

“You’re welcome. I’m just cooperating with the military.” Su Ling was a little embarrassed by the gratitude. Moreover, the raw materials were not provided for free.

Manton: “It was precisely when I heard about your cooperation with the military that I decided to express my gratitude, also for the sake of my colleagues in the military.”

Su Ling: “I feel a bit embarrassed.”

“No need to feel embarrassed. On the other hand, there is one thing that I would like to ask for your consent,” Manton said. “I hope to announce to the public about Xian Mo Yu’s black liquid and that it can cure the damages caused by dark matter and particle diffusion.”

“This is of great significance to the stability of the military. Many outstanding soldiers have retired because of this illness and are still suffering so far. This is hope for everyone out there.”

“Of course, the military will guarantee the safety of you and Xian Mo Yu.”

Su Ling thought for a while and said, “You can announce the news, but I don’t need a guard. Plus, I’m afraid my Alpha can’t stand it either.”

Manton: “I see. Then please tell me the places you usually go in your daily activities. We can increase our vigilance in these areas so that we can support in time in case you are in any danger.”

Su Ling: “Isn’t this a bit too exaggerated?”

“It is not an exaggeration. Xian Mo Yu’s black liquid is currently the only effective treatment method for the entire interstellar. The research institute is currently studying how to produce the black liquid artificially, but it is difficult to study it quickly and produce successful products right away.”

“You have to know that the entire galaxy is still trying to develop effective medicine, and Xian Mo Yu’s black liquid can be our reference.”

Su Ling rubbed his forehead, “I suddenly felt stressed.”

Manton: “Young man, just relax and leave the security to the Capital. You only need to take care of Xian Mo Yu.”

Su Ling smiled and said, “Okay.”

Manton: “Sorry, my doctor reminded me that the time limit to call is up. The Minister of the Imperial Security Department will contact you. Please don’t hide any information and tell him the scope of your daily activities. Also, if you have any plans for a long trip, please tell him in advance.”

Su Ling: “Alright.”

After hanging up the call, the Minister of Security soon contacted Su Ling. He listed male god’s villa and the fragrance bar as frequent places and informed the minister of his current location. He hung up the call and told Gu Liheng what happened. Leaning on Gu Liheng’s shoulder, he sighed, “Felt surreal.”

He actually received a call from 2 big shots in a row!

Gu Liheng rubbed his hair and praised, “You are great.”

Su Ling: “Actually, I felt unsettled. This has nothing to do with me. It’s all because of Xian Mo Yu.”

“Of course it has something to do with you. You found Xian Mo Yu. It is close to you because you have something in your body that attracted it. And because of that, your pheromones have been abnormal for 18 years,” Gu Liheng said with pity, “You are strong.”

Su Ling looked down; his mood became complicated. All the pain in 18 years was experienced by this body’s owner, not him. However, he soon makes up his mind. The other Su Ling chose to commit suicide and is already dead; he is himself, not other people! He does feel distressed for what happened to him(the body’s owner), but he is grateful to him for giving him(SL) a new life in his body and mind. He hoped that the owner of this body will also have a happy new life.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Liheng noticed Su Ling’s emotional change and looked at him.

Su Ling smiled, “It’s okay.”

…

The next morning, the entire Planet Belle has burst into commotions.

Su Ling received a call from Nalu early in the morning.

Nalu: “Xiao Ling, you are famous!”

Su Ling ruffled his hair and asked, “What’s the matter?” But he quickly understood. Looking at the time, he saw that it’s only 7.00 am. “They announced the news so soon?”

Nalu: “My contact page almost gets server error from the traffic. Remember to wear a mask and sunglasses when you go out!”

Su Ling: “Okay. Uncle Nalu, how is the renovation for the fragrance bar going on?”

Nalu: “According to the original plan, the renovation should be completed in a week. But now, it may have to be postponed. I dare not go to the site. The foreman told me that many people are waiting to ask me where you are.”

Su Ling: “If those people affect the process of the renovation, just call the security team to handle it.”

After the call with Nalu ended, Su Ling lay down and wanted to nap for a while. Unfortunately, his bracelet rang again.

“Hello, I’m the director of the Imperial Science channel. Is it a convenient time to talk?”

Su Ling: “…Can you wait a bit and call back later? At 8.00 am ba.”

[1] I hope it’s not confusing for y’all. This Boss is the leader of the Alpha soldiers in the researcher team. None of them were given names so it’s kinda hard for me _(;3/ So far, only Boss and Old Third got mentioned specifically.
