Chapter 599: The Yin Demonic Venerable 16

At this point, his tone suddenly became dark and cold. “If you can't do it, I'll crush your body and use it as fertilizer for the flowers!”

Tang Wan: ……

You're so cruel!

But until he reaches 80 favorability, I'll endure whatever you say!

Desperately telling herself not to take his threat to heart, Tang Wan raised her face into a smile after a moment. “I definitely can do it! Otherwise, how could I possibly deserve to like you?”

Hearing this, Bai Tong's heart instantly felt as though her tiny hand had poked it.

“You really like me?” Bai Tong's eyes were filled with suspicion.

Under the effects of the True Words Oath, Tang Wan nodded seriously. “Of course! You're my destined other half!”

“Heh!” After hearing this, some of the joy in Bai Tong's heart faded.

It seemed that she only wanted to be with him because of what that mysterious person had told her.

If it weren't for that reason, how could she possibly like him?

Thinking of this, Bai Tong suddenly tossed the bouquet in his hand aside.

Seeing this, Tang Wan was stunned. “Tongtong, you don't like the flowers I gave you?”

Looking at her dazed expression, Bai Tong coldly sneered, saying one thing while meaning another. “I see them every day. I've been looking at them for hundreds of years. What do you think? If you were me, would you like things you could see every single day?”

After saying that, he continued, “Besides, these flowers have all been watered with my blood. Every single one of them would be a priceless precious medicine if taken outside, yet you casually cut down flowers that I raised with my own blood. You really have some nerve!”

……

Hearing Bai Tong's words, Tang Wan was genuinely stunned.

Flowers watered with his blood?

For a moment, Tang Wan stared blankly at the bouquet lying on the ground where he had thrown it.

After a moment, she said sheepishly and guiltily, “I'm sorry. I didn't know…… I-I'll help you plant them back.”

After saying that, she hurriedly ran over to the discarded bouquet, carefully picked up all the petals, and put them into a jade box.

Seeing the guilt and uneasiness written all over her face, Bai Tong couldn't help frowning slightly. He suddenly felt a little regretful about what he had just said.

After all, although this little thing liked him because of what someone else had told her, her feelings were still genuine.

Besides, the spiritual flowers and herbs here weren't actually important to him at all.

But just as Bai Tong was about to say that it was fine, he saw Tang Wan run back toward the flowers and plants.

She then climbed up along the stem of the spiritual flower she had cut. She carefully placed the flower she had severed back onto the cut end of the stem, tied it in place with a ribbon, and then infused spiritual energy into the joint, attempting to graft it back together.

……

Seeing this, Bai Tong couldn't help saying, “It's useless. A Lihua can't be grafted back together.”

Hearing this, Tang Wan couldn't help looking dejected.

“You should have told me earlier that these were all spiritual flowers. If I'd known they were all watered with your blood, I never would have cut them.” Tang Wan said regretfully.

She had originally wanted to use flowers to confess her feelings. Who would have thought she'd only make things worse?

Bai Tong narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing this.

“You don't recognize them?”

Every single plant growing here was a rare spiritual medicine. Apart from a few spiritual flowers that were rarely known, most of them should have been familiar to cultivators.

Tang Wan's heart gave a little jolt when she heard this.

But she quickly said, “I recognize some of them. I just didn't expect you to grow so many spiritual flowers and herbs in a place like this.”

No matter how she looked at it, this place didn't seem suitable for growing spiritual medicines at all!
