Tempering the Yin-Yang Indestructible Body! Hu Liena's First Time...

After hearing Bibi Dong's instructions, Liang Hao certainly wasn't going to pass up these good things.

He spoke up:

"Don't worry, teacher. I'll distinguish friend from foe."

"As long as senior sister and I grow stronger, you'll have a team of your own when the time comes."

"Teacher, sorry to trouble you, but please bring those two ice and fire Immortal Herbs here. I'm going to use them to refine pills."

"All right, I'll fetch them for you right away!" Bibi Dong didn't hesitate. As long as Liang Hao understood the bigger picture, that was enough.

Dugu Bo also understood that Liang Hao was going to take medicine, and there was no use in him staying here now.

He immediately said to Liang Hao and the others, "Since you're going to refine and take pills, young friend, I'll go find my granddaughter first."

"Once my Yanyan has been detoxified, I'll come back. I won't disturb you now."

"This medicine garden has long been yours, and all the herbs are yours to use as you please..."

With that, Dugu Bo cupped his hands. He would go detoxify Dugu Yan first, then return to serve Liang Hao.

Liang Hao paid him no mind, focusing instead on the pill furnace before him.

He then found some suitable spirit herbs nearby. They were entirely different from those used for the Water-Fire Myriad-Invasion Pill, because this time he was refining a body-tempering pill.

"This spirit herb is called Blazing Fire Bitterleaf. Its medicinal effects are potent. In it goes..."

"This spirit herb is Central Origin Grass. It's balanced and gentle, with extraordinary medicinal effects. In it goes too..."

Spirit herbs that couldn't be bought outside, no matter how much one paid, could only serve as accompaniments to the Infernal Delicate Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass here.

Liang Hao followed the refining method in the Medicine Codex exactly, without the slightest deviation.

In the blink of an eye, another hour passed. When the pill furnace opened, a rich medicinal fragrance instantly poured out.

Even Bibi Dong felt refreshed upon smelling it.

Hu Liena came over of her own accord and asked Liang Hao, "Xiao Hao, what pill did you refine this time?"

Liang Hao looked at the three pills that had appeared and put them all into a jade bottle he had prepared. He explained:

"Senior sister, this pill is called the Yin-Yang Indestructible Pill!"

"It uses the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass as its two main Immortal Herbs, with the power of ice and fire as the catalyst and numerous spirit herbs to aid their sublimation, reaching a level that touches upon the power of yin and yang."

"Water is the extreme of yin, and fire is the extreme of yang. It's only natural to obtain the power of yin and yang after sublimation."

"Taking the Infernal Delicate Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and then entering the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well—that is, these spring waters—already has a body-tempering effect."

"Under normal circumstances, it can be called Water and Fire Body Refinement."

"But the Yin-Yang Indestructible Pill I refined builds upon the water and fire golden body, transforming immunity to water and fire into yin-yang indestructibility and giving the body limitless strength!"

"After taking the pills, we'll enter the spring waters to temper ourselves. The two Qis of yin and yang will transform our bodies, making them impervious to all techniques and difficult to destroy. Only then will we have a true Immaculate Golden Body!!"

By the end, even Liang Hao couldn't help growing a little excited.

The original Water and Fire Body Refinement only granted immunity to water, fire, and all poisons, along with some physical strengthening.

But after taking his Yin-Yang Indestructible Pill, it would directly ascend to yin-yang indestructibility.

Let alone water, fire, and poisons entering their bodies—even if all kinds of energy entered them, they still wouldn't be able to destroy their bodies.

Of course, all of this depended on their levels being roughly comparable.

Unless an opponent was vastly stronger than Liang Hao, they wouldn't be able to deal him truly destructive damage.

Only a top-tier expert could forcefully deal with Liang Hao and break his yin-yang indestructibility.

In short, once refined into pills, their body-tempering effect was far stronger than Water and Fire Body Refinement!

Liang Hao thought for a moment and murmured, "There are three pills here. Teacher can't take one, because she's already a Titled Douluo, and her body has already been tempered about as much as it can be."

"You and I will take one each and leave one over. We'll see who to give it to later..."

"After we take them, I think our bodies will be at least as strong as a Soul Emperor's!"

"What?!" Hu Liena was completely dumbstruck by his words.

"After taking this pill and tempering our bodies, we'll be as strong as Soul Emperors?"

"Th-that's how many levels we'd be leaping over..."

"In other words, if we don't use Soul Skills or Soul Power and fight purely hand-to-hand, I could exchange a couple of blows with a Soul Emperor too?!"

Liang Hao naturally nodded.

Seeing him like this, Hu Liena grew ever more moved, barely able to contain herself.

Hu Liena's eyes grew slightly moist as she said, "You're actually giving me one of these incredibly powerful pills?"

"If you took them all yourself, wouldn't the effect be better?"

"Silly Liang Hao..."

Liang Hao was a little surprised. Wait, was she going to cry just because he'd given her a pill?

Taking one himself would have almost the same effect as taking three; there was a limit to how much medicinal power he could absorb.

But he hurried to comfort Hu Liena anyway. "You're my senior sister."

"Senior sister, be good. I'll still need you to protect me in the future."

"Xiao Hao..." Hu Liena bit her lip, even more moved.

At last, Hu Liena couldn't help walking over to Liang Hao and planting a light kiss on his left cheek.

She said softly, "Thank you."

"Don't worry, Xiao Hao. No matter how the world treats you in the future, I, Hu Liena, will always stand by your side."

"You'll always be my Xiao Hao..."

After saying that, Hu Liena still had words left unspoken in her heart.

She also made up her mind. Xiao Hao, your senior sister will always stay with you from now on.

Apart from you, there are no other outstanding talents in this world worth looking at...

And this was my first time, my first kiss...

Hu Liena's light kiss instantly left Liang Hao dumbstruck.

Wait, what are you doing?

I'm not old enough yet! What are you trying to do, you big dummy?!

Bibi Dong, standing nearby, suddenly widened her eyes and couldn't help saying, "Nana, what are you doing?"

"You... Xiao Hao is my..."

"Wait, don't tell me you have feelings for Xiao Hao..."

Bibi Dong didn't know why, but the moment Hu Liena kissed Liang Hao, her heart suddenly fell into a panic, as though something had been taken from her.

By rights, it would be quite nice if her two disciples got together, so why did she feel a sense of loss instead?

As though it shouldn't have been Hu Liena, but herself?

Bibi Dong's heart raced, her expression flickering. She too couldn't help biting her lip, and was even a little jealous?

Hu Liena heard the question and quickly came to her senses. She said shyly, "Sorry, teacher. I-I got too excited..."

"Xiao Hao, was I too forward?"

Liang Hao coughed twice, unsure how to answer.

Of course he liked beautiful women. Hu Liena was so seductive—who wouldn't love her?

But the problem was that he wasn't old enough yet. Wasn't she getting him into trouble?

Liang Hao changed the subject. "Um, senior sister, let's take the pills first."

"After taking them, we only need to enter the spring waters and temper our bodies."

"Oh, oh, all right..." Hu Liena was also a little disappointed.

Liang Hao was so calm. Did that mean he didn't like her, or didn't care about her?

Hu Liena couldn't help overthinking it. She also realized that she was placing more and more importance on Liang Hao's attitude toward her.

There was nothing she could do but force her thoughts down and follow Liang Hao in taking the pills and entering the water.
