“You’ve worked hard!”
Looking at the unconscious Hu Liena before him, Qian Yu stepped forward, picked her up, and whispered softly.
He naturally had no designs on Hu Liena; it was more out of gratitude for her risking her life to help him.
He admitted that both Qian Renxue and Hu Liena were idiots, total spendthrifts.
But now, all their squandering had ended up benefiting him—one had sacrificed everything, and the other had risked her life to hunt a spirit ring.
Anyone with a conscience would have to accept this favor.
Before losing consciousness completely, Hu Liena heard Qian Yu’s words in a daze, and the corners of her mouth curled up involuntarily.
“As expected of Douluo Continent; besides being nicknamed the ‘Continent of Romance,’ it’s also known as the ‘Continent of Hormones.'”
After picking up Hu Liena, Qian Yu finally realized the changes in his own body.
Having absorbed just two spirit rings, his height had shot up; at only six years old, he was already one point four five meters tall.
Carrying Hu Liena, Qian Yu did not return to Heaven Dou City immediately.
Instead, he took her to a small town near Sunset Forest to rest and recover from her injuries.
During this period, aside from his daily Cultivation of Soul Power, Qian Yu spent the rest of his time studying Tang Sect techniques.
The Cultivation of Purple Demon Eye was already on the right track.
Relying on his powerful Mental Energy and the Divine-Grade angel head bone, he quickly mastered it with ease.
The problem now was the lack of purple Qi; he had to absorb it punctually every day.
Recently, he wanted to try absorbing Sun True Fire directly to cultivate the Purple Demon Eye.
For others, this would be extremely dangerous, but for him, possessing the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul and a Divine-Grade head Spirit Bone, it was worth a try.
If he could improve it, the Purple Demon Eye would be even better suited to him.
Besides this, he also placed great importance on the Mysterious Jade Hand.
In the World of Douluo Continent, which featured high attack and low defense, he had never heard of any other techniques similar to the Body Sect’s “Impeccable Golden Body” that appeared twenty thousand years later.
Mysterious Jade Hand could condense Soul Power and temper the hands, making them as hard as iron.
If he could take it a step further and apply it to his entire body, even penetrating his internal organs, he might be able to reach the level of a Divine-Grade physique even at the Titled Douluo Realm.
Compared to these two, he didn’t pay as much attention to the other Tang Sect techniques.
Apart from occasionally practicing Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to fit his own Spirit’s combat style, he only studied the others briefly to understand their principles and extract anything useful.
In the blink of an eye, another half month passed, and Hu Liena’s injuries finally showed signs of improvement.
Mysterious Heaven Skill had played a major role in this.
If not for this Cultivation Technique, given Hu Liena’s condition, she might have been bedridden for another ten to fifteen days.
The two then returned to Heaven Dou City.
It just so happened that the day they returned to Heaven Dou City was the day the Divine Master was giving a public lecture.
The former trash, now the Divine Master, Yu Xiaogang was brimming with satisfaction.
Not only had he taught a god, but he was also an honored guest in the two great Empires and had a beautiful wife; he was truly in high Spirits.
Everywhere he went, he was fawned over.
“There are no trash Spirits, only trash Spirit Masters.”
“This is the first lesson I taught the Sea God.
It was by adhering to this viewpoint, under my, the Great Master’s, guidance, that he evolved from a trash Spirit like Blue Silver Grass, step by step, to become the Sea God.”
“…”
Yu Xiaogang sat in a high position in the most prosperous part of Heaven Dou City, speaking eloquently.
Those who came to support him were all of noble status.
Even the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Beng, had personally arrived, deigning to sit on the street and listen carefully.
“You have to say, this Xue Beng is a character!”
Qian Yu, who was passing by, also stopped and watched it all with a smile.
“What kind of character is he?
He’s just a shameless scoundrel.
As an Emperor of a nation, he’s acting like a dog, fawning over Yu Xiaogang.”
Hu Liena felt very displeased seeing this, especially when looking at Yu Xiaogang on the high platform.
Her eyes were filled with anger and hatred.
Much of the tragedy her teacher had experienced was caused by this culprit.
“Don’t look down on Xue Beng.
If you were in his position, could you lower your face and fawn over someone like he does?”
“Besides, no matter how much he fawns, he’s fawning over the teacher of a God, not a piece of trash.”
After spending this time together, Qian Yu had restrained himself a bit and wasn’t being too sharp-tongued.
Otherwise, he would have directly mocked Bibi Dong by name.
“I…”
Hu Liena wanted to retort, but opened her mouth and found she didn’t know what to say.
Yes, in the same situation, could she lower her status and do such a thing?
Even now, in such dire straits, she still held onto her pride—the pride of being the former Saintess of Spirit Hall, the pride of a Genius.
“Is she already showing?”
Qian Yu’s gaze wandered, looking at the two people sitting in the front row: Liu Erlong and Flender.
Liu Erlong was currently protruding a large belly, looking with adoration at Yu Xiaogang, who was speaking eloquently on the high platform.
Her expression was one of admiration to the bone.
Beside her sat Flender, taking care of Liu Erlong with caution at every moment.
Anyone who didn’t know better would think the child in Liu Erlong’s belly was his.
Speaking of fawning, isn’t there one right here?
In the past, Flender only fawned over Liu Erlong.
Now, he not only fawns over Liu Erlong but also puts all his effort into fawning over Yu Xiaogang.
He just wanted to use Yu Xiaogang’s fame to promote his Shrek Academy, which was opening in half a year.
The title of Divine Master was enough to attract countless followers.
Below the stage, Flender constantly satisfied Liu Erlong’s every request.
One moment he was handing her water, the next he was taking various fruits out of his spirit tool, patiently peeling them and handing them to Liu Erlong.
He was enjoying every moment of it.
From time to time, he would wink at Yu Xiaogang on stage, wanting him to take this opportunity to mention Shrek Academy.
Yu Xiaogang had long noticed Flender’s signals.
The reason he hadn’t responded yet was that he was playing hard to get.
Even if it was a request from his former brother, if he agreed too easily, wouldn’t his status as a Divine Master be devalued?
Seeing Flender busy running around, Yu Xiaogang nodded secretly with satisfaction, and then proceeded to promote the Shrek Academy matter.
Qian Yu’s gaze at this moment was lingering more on Liu Erlong.
To be precise, it was her protruding belly.
He felt he could stir up some trouble.
Even if he couldn’t come forward himself, he could spread some rumors to divide the enemy from within.
As for whether this would affect the child who hadn’t yet been born, he didn’t care.
“No, let’s phrase it differently.”
“I am making a huge contribution to the continuation of human civilization.
The product of inbreeding is very likely to suffer from congenital diseases and should not exist in this World.”
“Shouldn’t we prioritize eugenics?”
A holy smile appeared on Qian Yu’s face; he was about to start wielding the moral cudgel.
