I'll Help You Make Up for It

Tang San reached out and gently patted her head. "What level are you now?"

Qian Renxue looked up and asked in confusion, "Level 66? What's wrong? Is it too slow?"

A hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes, "I've always had to impersonate Xue Qinghe, handling the political affairs of the Heaven Dou Empire and navigating the complexities of the nobility. Sometimes I had to sacrifice precious cultivation time. Over the past ten years, I've indeed fallen behind quite a bit."

Tang San smiled and affectionately pinched her cheek, "I have a gift for you."

Qian Renxue's eyes lit up. "What gift?"

"A gift that greatly enhances your strength."

Tang San took out a crimson immortal Immortal Herb from his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Purse. Its leaves were slender like willow leaves, and the tips of the leaves resembled rooster combs. The veins of the leaves were reddish-gold, and the entire Immortal Herb contained powerful vitality.

It is indeed the Immortal Herb Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower.

"You've wasted a lot of cultivation time over the past ten years or so, let me help you make up for it."

Tang San handed the Immortal Herb to Qian Renxue and said, "This is an Immortal Herb that is very suitable for you. It can not only greatly enhance your strength, but also purify the impurities in your Martial Soul, making your Six-Winged Angel more pure and your Soul Skills more explosive."

Qian Renxue took the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, holding it in her palm, her eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.

Tang San explained the effects of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower to her in detail.

The Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower is an ultimate fire-attribute Immortal Herb that grows in the scorching Yang Spring, specifically created to purify impurities in Martial Souls.

The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul contains the power of sacred flames. Consuming this herb can purify fire-attribute energy, making the Martial Soul more pure and greatly enhancing the power and burst speed of Soul Skills.

After speaking, Tang San looked at Qian Renxue seriously. "After taking it, immediately meditate and guide the medicinal effects into your Martial Soul. There might be some burning sensation during the process, but it won't harm you."

Qian Renxue nodded, and without even bothering to put on her clothes, immediately sat cross-legged on the bed and put the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower into her mouth.

The petals melted in the mouth, turning into a warm, burning current that flowed down the throat and into the stomach.

She closed her eyes, and golden light surged from within her, enveloping her in a dazzling radiance.

The burning sensation spread from my abdomen to my limbs and bones, as if a fire dragon was running through my meridians.

Qian Renxue's brows furrowed slightly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, causing her to involuntarily let out a groan.

Tang San sat to the side, quietly watching over her.

But at this moment, Qian Renxue was completely naked, and the Golden Lion King was on full display, which made Tang San feel a surge of heat.

This process lasted for about half an hour.

The golden light slowly faded, and Qian Renxue slowly opened her eyes.

Her aura was several levels stronger than before, and her golden eyes now held a fiery golden-red hue.

The sacred flame contained within the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul evolved into the Ultimate Fire under the purification of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, naturally resulting in a surge in the power of its Soul Skills.

His Soul Power also broke through the bottleneck of level 70 directly from level 66.

Tang San knew that Soul Masters with Ultimate Attributes would experience an extremely fast cultivation speed after breaking through level 70, entering a stage of "accumulating strength for a powerful burst," far surpassing ordinary Soul Masters.

Qian Renxue looked down at her hands, feeling the new and powerful force within her.

Her face was filled with surprise and disbelief, her voice trembling slightly. "I've broken through to level 70? I'm only one Soul Ring away from becoming Soul Saint. I never imagined that your immortal Immortal Herb would be equivalent to two or three years of my cultivation."

Tang San's lips curved into a smile, his eyes filled with admiration.

Qian Renxue was as happy as a little girl, throwing herself into Tang San's arms and giving him another big kiss.

"I'll go get my Seventh Soul Ring in a few days," Qian Renxue said, blushing.

Tang San took out a piece of Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue from his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Purse and handed it to Qian Renxue, saying earnestly, "Don't rush for the Soul Ring, eat this first."

Qian Renxue, having served Heaven Dou Crown Prince for over a decade, was well aware of the effects of Whale Rubber and assumed Tang San was about to do that again.

Her face flushed red, and she avoided Tang San's gaze, saying shyly, "You little rascal, are you... are you ever going to stop?"

Tang San was both amused and exasperated, and then explained the Whale Rubber Body-Tempering Method in detail.

Qian Renxue took the Whale Rubber with some skepticism, took out an iron bowl, and used her Soul Power to melt it into a liquid.

She took a deep breath and swallowed it in one gulp.

A moment later, it felt like a fire was burning inside my body.

Qian Renxue's face turned red, her brows furrowed, and her hands clenched into fists as the energy of the Whale Rubber surged wildly within her body.

The side effects of the Whale Rubber began to appear. Qian Renxue's eyes became glazed over, and she stared intently at Tang San if she wanted to devour him.

However, there was no ice water in the sealed room.

Looking at Qian Renxue's increasingly dazed eyes, Tang San sighed inwardly: I guess I'll just have to put up with this.

He stepped forward and embraced Qian Renxue.

After another fierce "battle", Qian Renxue collapsed into a deep sleep in Tang San's arms, her body covered in sweat, as if all her strength had been drained away, her breathing rapid and disordered.

More than an hour later, she finally woke up slowly, her voice filled with a mixture of anger and amusement. "You little rascal, you still say it wasn't for this?"

Tang San laughed smugly and teased, "Tell me, hasn't your physique improved a lot?"

Qian Renxue closed her eyes and sensed the changes in her body.

The meridians are wider than before, and the speed of Soul Power circulation is significantly faster. The bones are denser, the muscles are firmer, and even the skin has become more delicate and lustrous.

She nodded, admitting, "I do feel much better. I'm full of energy, like I just had a hot bath and slept all day."

Tang San kissed her forehead, his tone smug. "That works, doesn't it? For the next few days, I'll come every day to help you take the Whale Rubber. Once the Whale Rubber can no longer improve your physique, you can go and obtain Soul Ring. An ordinary person's Seventh Soul Ring takes about 50,000 years, but I'll try my best to raise your Seventh Soul Ring to 80,000 years. That way, we can consider getting the next two Soul Rings to 100,000 years."

Qian Renxue raised her head, her eyes filled with possessiveness. "Fine, then you have to come every day, no slacking off."

Tang San grinned mischievously and gently pinched her waist. "Of course, I come every day. How could I slack off on such a good job?"

Qian Renxue snorted and punched him in the chest, but the punch was soft and weak, like a tickle.

The two lingered for a while longer, exchanging sweet nothings.

Tang San helped Qian Renxue get dressed, and then picked up his own clothes that were scattered on the ground and put them on as well.

As she got off the bed, Qian Renxue cried out in pain, her legs buckling and she nearly fell.

Having never experienced love before, she couldn't withstand Tang San's repeated torment throughout the night. She was already weak and sore, and felt pain all over her body.

Tang San had no choice but to activate his Third Soul Skill to increase Qian Renxue's recovery speed.

However, she is at least Soul Saint, so she should be able to recover after a short period of meditation.

When she emerged from the secret chamber, Qian Renxue had already reverted to her original form as Xue Qinghe.

Tang San helped her to the throne in her study, and seeing that she had closed her eyes to regulate her breathing, he quietly left the study.

As I left the Crown Prince's Residence, the sky was beginning to lighten, with a pale, fish-belly white tinge appearing on the eastern horizon.

The cool morning breeze brushed against my face, dispelling any lingering sleepiness.

Tang San stood at the entrance of the Crown Prince's Residence and took a deep breath of the slightly cool air.

A slight smile played on his lips as he walked towards the Shrek Academy.
