"So... would you stop looking for me and bothering me by asking me to marry you?"
Zhang Xinya opened her eyes with shock when she heard this from Ling Tian.
Ling Tian looked at her directly, showing her that he meant it. Ling Tian just looked at her indifferently while inside he was thinking, 'I don't think you doubt whether you really love your mother...'
Zhang Xinya's fingers loosened and then finally released Ling Tian's clothes, while she lowered her head and was silent for a few seconds.
"I understand." It didn't take long for Zhang Xinya to respond and slowly raise her head to look at Ling Tian.
Ling Tian could clearly see the decision in her eyes, as well as sadness and even pain in her.
"If it is for the sake of my mother in order for you to cure her, I promise I will no longer bother you..." Zhang Xinya's trembling voice was heard as she tried to smile rigidly at Ling Tian, accepting his request.
Did she really have feelings for him?
Wasn't this just a whim for having saved her once?
Ling Tian couldn't help but wonder while watching Zhang Xinya's current expression. He knew she wasn't lying when she promised him this, as he could feel the pain and sadness in her voice. He was surprised that Zhang Xinya even expressed this clear sadness when she told him that she would leave him in peace.
It would be a complete lie if Ling Tian said he wasn't a little interested in beauty, even more so now that he began to walk and explore this new area since he began his relationship with Yun Mengxin and, especially, now that he has more women so beautiful and gorgeous that they would be impossible to find even in the Immortal World.
Now, even though he didn't know Zhang Xinya well enough, he could still give her a chance to get to know him better. Somehow Zhang Xinya never gave him a bad feeling or a bad premonition about being near her, as if he was at ease and at peace with her.
His instincts always alerted him to anything bad, even the slightest thing. They had always helped him to escape from various situations or to see through the people he met in his whole life. Ling Tian always listened to his instincts when meeting people and making friendship.
The same was true for those he had come in contact with up to now on this lower plane, except for a few people who were clearly members of the Ming family and the Ze family. Those previous young people who wanted to teach him a lesson for wanting to see Goddess Zhang Xinya did not count for Ling Tian, as they were simply not worth it.
Ling Tian secretly accepted Zhang Xinya by not hesitating to stop bothering him as long as he cured her mother.
He would do whatever was necessary for his own family, so that Zhang Xinya agreed with him and no doubt made Ling Tian nod his head in satisfaction.
If his mother or father, or even his older sister were alive, Ling Tian would not hesitate for a second to discard his cultivation and become a cripple for their sake or see them again even though they were in the end just an adopted family. Ling Tian's love for them was so immense that it has marked him deep down to his bones that he has never forgotten their faces in these thousands of years, especially his mother who always loved him and pampered him with everything she had even though he was not her true son by blood.
Ling Tian finally smiled slightly while seeing Zhang Xinya who had a stiff and painful smile on her face. Now he had a good impression of her. In addition, Zhang Xinya was really something special by not letting herself be overcome by the sadness of seeing her mother in such a state and still being able to maintain a happy and direct personality. Not everyone could smile if someone in their family, especially a mother, was delicate and sick. Even Ling Tian spent several years feeling helpless, angry, painful and sad, remembering the death of his mother, father and older sister, as well as his entire adopted family.
"Your mother will be fine and she will also be proud of you..." Ling Tian spoke softly as he extended his hand and gently hit Zhang Xinya's forehead with his middle finger and said, "Don't worry about the aforementioned, so let's take it easy and calmly as we will still have a lot of time to get to know each other."
With his spiritual sense, Ling Tian realized that Zhang Chao was already running back to the bedroom.
Zhang Xinya was astonished to hear what Ling Tian said. Her heart and mind could not process what was happening at this moment.
Hadn't he told her himself to stay away from him?
pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ However, Zhang Xinya soon began to quickly understand what was happening and what Ling Tian said.
Had he now given her a chance for the two of them to get to know each other?
When Zhang Xinya thought of the latter and understood it in such a way, her heart began to beat furiously with happiness when the sorrows, pain and disappointments were swept away in an instant.
Bam!
Before she could say anything, the door burst open as Zhang Chao rushed in and brought with him a somewhat large container.
"L-Lord Ling, here are all the ingredients that were used for my wife's elixir." Zhang Chao carefully placed the container and opened the lid, letting a medicinal fragrance escape and flooding the bedroom.
Zhang Xinya kept what she had to say to Ling Tian while the nervousness came back to her. This was important as it was about her mother's health.
Ling Tian looked at the container and observed all the spiritual plants inside.
He took them out one by one while leaving them on the side of the table.
Zhang Xinya and Zhang Chao did not say a word as they watched him do this.
Finally, Ling Tian took out a very beautiful violet plant with five petals and held it in his hands. Its entire stem, petals and even its center was clearly violet in color.
"That time when you made the elixir, that flower should be a little different from this one, right?" Ling Tian showed that flower to both of them, while he then tried to open its petals a little: "I am sure that its center was a pale golden color and had some white lines too."
Zhang Chao was surprised to hear this and quickly confirmed what this said: "Yes! It was a flower that gave off a very strong and intoxicatingly delicious aroma, so we thought it was a better quality plant. "
Zhang Xinya nodded to what her father said.
"This plant was the one that caused her current state." Ling Tian pointed out to Zhang Ruoyan, "That plant was special, but you should not consume it because it would practically kill you soon after."
Ling Tian spoke slowly, making the father-daughter complexion pale.
The spiritual plant that Ling Tian referred to was used to strengthen the sea of knowledge and the soul strength of the cultivators, so it was much sought after everywhere.
However, these people did not practice cultivation, so this plant would have an impact contrary to what was estimated.
The soul of the one who takes it will be quickly weakened over time until it disappears completely, leaving the body intact, as if it were only asleep. The soul would disappear completely and could never wake up again.
All this was because they had not opened their sea of knowledge; therefore, the effect of the spiritual plant would be contradictory.
