"Don't forget my Footbath!"

After leaving the Papal Hall with Tian Hao once more, Ling Yuan reminded him as they parted, her Beautiful Eyes shifting mischievously.

Although she Did Not Know what this Little Devil had said to the Pope beneath the Papal Hall, the fact that he had been able to stay for such a Long Time meant the matter was certainly significant, making her increasingly curious about him.

"Would a different one work?"

Tian Hao could not help asking. During this period, he had asked his mother to look for an exactly identical Footbath, but his mother always said she could not find one.

"That's your problem."

Ling Yuan replied with a beaming smile, then walked away with her hands behind her back. She even skipped along, clearly in an excellent mood.

I'll ask Mom again when I get home.

Helplessly scratching his head, Tian Hao could only head home first.

That evening, while eating dinner, Tian Hao asked his mother about the Footbath.

"There are some with similar patterns on top, but I couldn't find even one that was exactly the same. I'll look in some other shops."

His mother, Sun Feng, answered helplessly, though an imperceptible smile lurked in her eyes.

"Take your time looking."

Tian Hao was helpless. He could only search slowly.

After Tian Hao finished eating and went upstairs, his father, Tian Fu, asked in confusion, "It's just a Footbath. Is it really that hard to find?"

"You fool. Can't you tell that Bishop Ling Yuan is interested in our son? I'll never find that Footbath in my entire life."

Sun Feng rolled her eyes at him. She had already made her calculations. She would never find that Footbath and bring it home.

"Didn't you say our son was involved with the Saintess? Now he's gotten involved with Bishop Ling Yuan too. Will there be a problem?"

Tian Fu looked utterly bewildered before asking worriedly.

Walking on two boats was no easy feat. It was very easy to capsize.

Besides, Bishop Ling Yuan was not young. She was older than both of them. Could their son handle her?

"Do you think I don't want our son to stay with the Saintess until the end? But the Saintess's status and position are too high. I don't think things between them will work out. Bishop Ling Yuan seems much more reliable."

At the mention of this, Sun Feng's face filled with worry.

It was a good thing that their son could be involved with the Saintess, but their family's circumstances were far too poor. They were nowhere near qualified to marry the Saintess, and even having their son marry into her family would not work.

Since the Saintess's side had such slim odds, they might as well maintain things with Bishop Ling Yuan.

Although Bishop Ling Yuan was a little old, she looked young. And anyone could tell at a glance that her figure was well-suited to bearing children. Bringing her home as a daughter-in-law would be a guaranteed profit.

Tian Fu opened and closed his mouth, not knowing what to say. In the end, he could only lower his head and focus on eating.

When it came to this sort of matter, it was enough to leave it to his wife. There was no need to meddle.

While his parents were thinking about the matter, Tian Hao was also thinking about his parents in his room.

"The bottleneck at Level 29 won't be easy to break through. Expanding the Dantian won't help either. Besides, Mom and Dad have civilian posts now and almost never leave Spirit City. They don't need to fight, so expanding their Dantian is useless.

"Once we go to the Icefire Yin Yang Well, I'll get that Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma and use it to help Mom and Dad break through. If that doesn't work, I'll use Immortal Herbs."

As a filial child, Tian Hao naturally hoped that his parents could live to a hundred years old—or even gain eternal life.

Unfortunately, his parents' talents were too poor. As long as a Soul Master failed to reach Level 30 before the age of 20, breaking through would be nearly impossible. At present, he could only follow Yu Xiaogang's future method and use the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma to help his parents break through.

If that still failed, he would use Immortal Herbs. Something was bound to work.

Of course, going to the Icefire Yin Yang Well would not be easy. Although he knew it was in the Sunset Forest, the Sunset Forest was enormous, and it contained countless Soul Beasts. With his current frail body, entering would be tantamount to seeking death.

He would wait until he became a little stronger.

As for why he did not tell the Pope and have him bring people to search for it—could he say that he wanted to keep it all for himself?

Not to mention that the Immortal Herbs were related to the awakening and cultivation plans for his Second Martial Soul. He could not afford any mistakes.

"I wonder whether Dugu Bo has discovered the Icefire Yin Yang Well yet. This is a Clue. I have to keep an eye on it."

As he thought about it, he could not help associating it with the future Poison Douluo. He did not know whether Dugu Bo had found the Icefire Yin Yang Well yet. If he had, Tian Hao could simply follow him inside, then sneak in while Dugu Bo was away and pack up all the medicinal herbs inside—even digging out the roots.

In any case, those Immortal Herbs were gifts of nature and did not count as Dugu Bo's private property. Taking them would not burden his conscience.

"I have to Prepare the protective suit first. That Azure Serpent Venomous Miasma is no joke."

His thoughts shifting, Tian Hao understood that he had to make preparations early. After all, opportunities favored those who were prepared.

After thinking for a while, he finally Calmed Down and began cultivating. He absorbed the Heaven and Earth Origin Force, refined it into his own Attribute-less Soul Power, and then filled his Lower Dantian with it.

Earlier, he had already transferred the Sacred Light Soul Power from his Lower Dantian to his Middle Dantian through his meridians. The Lower Dantian was now used to store his own Attribute-less Soul Power.

His Martial Soul was purely of the Spiritual Type and did not grant his Soul Power any attribute. It was an extremely pure form of Soul Power, and it was precisely because of this that it could be converted into Sacred Light Soul Power without loss.

However, he could not abandon his Attribute-less Soul Power either. In the future, he would still need to use it as a medium to awaken and even cultivate his Second Martial Soul.

Thus began his peaceful daily cultivation routine. At the same time, he received Bibi Dong's special training guidance once every five days.

Perhaps because she had genuinely let go, Bibi Dong's attitude toward him improved considerably, and the two got along fairly harmoniously.

However, Soon After, his superior, Ling Yuan, came looking for him and brought along a special Recording Crystal.

After watching the contents of the Recording Crystal, Tian Hao immediately had Ling Yuan take him to the Papal Hall to pay his respects to Qian Xunji.

"Reporting to His Excellency, we received information that Yu Xiaogang encountered a female Soul Master with a Fire Dragon Martial Soul. They are traveling together, and their relationship is intimate."

After arriving at the Papal Hall, Tian Hao spoke while taking out a Soul Tool, activating it with Soul Power, and playing the recording sealed inside.

The recording showed Yu Xiaogang sitting in a tavern with a bespectacled man and a woman dressed in white leather clothing. They were eating and drinking while chatting and laughing.

The woman even served Yu Xiaogang food from time to time, and her manner toward him was quite intimate.

"It should be them. But this is far too fast. Only half a year has passed. Did Yu Xiaogang forget Bibi Dong that quickly? A plastic romance?"

Watching the recording a second time, Tian Hao could not help but complain inwardly. He had guessed the identities of those two, and their fated encounter had still taken place.

He had originally thought it would take another year or even several years. Who would have expected it to happen so quickly?

"From the current situation, the plan is already secure. A man like Yu Xiaogang, who carries the title of genius, truly has a Fatal attraction for certain women. In the end, the two of them will certainly be unable to escape the web of love.

"When they get married, we only need to bring the Saintess over to drink some Wedding Wine. I believe the Saintess will eventually come to terms with it."

After the recording finished playing, Tian Hao wore a delighted smile, and Qian Xunji wore one as well.

For the past half year, he had been troubled by that foolish disciple. He had even shelved Tian Hao's suggestion from that day and had not immediately expanded the Saintess's Dantian Space.

Now everything was basically secure. He could confidently cultivate that foolish and adorable disciple.

"His Excellency, this matter is basically settled. We only need to give the Saintess the recordings secretly made by our people once a month. After watching them again and again, I believe they will be enough to completely wear away the Saintess's feelings for Yu Xiaogang until she forgets him entirely."

Tian Hao spoke. This matter was more or less settled. All they needed to do now was wait patiently. They did not even need to take the initiative to do anything. What was meant to happen would happen eventually.

Tian Hao: "What do all you veterans think of our Martial Soul Hall Paparazzi's covert recording skills?"
