"After this, the poison in you and Yan Yan will be almost completely cleared."
One month later, in the dormitory of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Jiang Mian sat cross-legged on the bed and said to Poison Douluo, who was meditating and adjusting his breathing in front of him, "You can clear the remaining poison yourself."
"Thank you." Gu Du Bo clasped his fists with both hands and said solemnly, "Great kindness needs no words. If you ever need my help in the future, just say the word."
"That's kind of you." Jiang Mian chuckled, took out the honorary elder token from his pocket, and said, "Poison Douluo, you can go to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well now. With this token, command the Spirit Hall soul masters to return the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to you."
"Alright, when the time comes, I'll pick out the best Immortal Herbs and personally deliver them to Spirit Hall." Gu Du Bo agreed readily and left Heaven Dou Royal Academy without much delay.
Jiang Mian walked out of the room and immediately spotted Xie Yue and Ye Lingling strolling in the academy. Their relationship had been heating up recently. Since Ye Lingling was treating Xie Yue's injuries, they had been spending a lot of time alone together.
When two handsome young people of similar age, a perfect match, are together, sparks are bound to fly.
"Interesting." Jiang Mian smiled and looked in another direction. Yan was walking alone, dejected, his silhouette appearing so lonely and desolate.
"What a mood killer." Jiang Mian laughed heartily. Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing, holding hands, walked up to Jiang Mian at some point.
"What are you two little cuties up to?" Jiang Mian touched their cheeks and said with a smile, "We've stayed here long enough. It's time to return to Spirit Hall."
"Teacher must be getting impatient too." Hu Liena smiled shyly and said, "Jiang Mian, you've clearly leveled up a lot this month."
"I'm already level fifty-eight." Jiang Mian looked at his hands and said, "In another two months, I'll be able to reach Soul Emperor."
"That's truly amazing." Zhu Zhuqing said, "With Jiang Mian's talent, he might even break the record for the youngest Titled Douluo on the continent."
"It shouldn't be a big problem." Jiang Mian nodded. He had been neglecting his Soul Power cultivation recently, which had slowed his progress. He actually wanted to become a god quickly so he could bring Zhu Zhuqing and the others along with him.
Bibi Dong wouldn't have to be fixated on the Rakshasa God either, as that divine position was a bit too evil.
Speaking of which, there was a rule in the God Realm, something about not interfering with the mortal world after becoming a god?
What kind of bullshit rule was that? If I become a god, can't I bring my family and friends up with me? Am I supposed to be like that ungrateful Tang San?
If Jiang Mian became a God King, he would abolish all these miscellaneous rules and create a world of fair competition for everyone.
"My brother has already reached level forty-nine recently. He's really working hard." Hu Liena pouted, "I was only one level behind him originally, but now we're two levels apart."
"What about that guy Yan?" Jiang Mian asked, "He seems to be stuck because of his love troubles, hasn't his strength stagnated?"
"Yes." Zhu Zhuqing nodded, "He seems to be at the same level as Nana jie now. If he continues like this, even I will be able to surpass him."
"That won't do." Jiang Mian rubbed his temples, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly, "It seems I need to help him overcome his inner demons."
"What do you plan to do?" Hu Liena asked in surprise.
Jiang Mian chuckled, "Find him a girlfriend."
"This kid isn't ugly, and his talent is so good. Finding a girlfriend shouldn't be difficult." Jiang Mian said, "What about that Gu Du Yan?"
"Doesn't she like Yu Tianheng?" Hu Liena teased with her finger, chuckling, "Jiang Mian, stop playing matchmaker, okay?"
"Just kidding." Jiang Mian spread his hands, "This kind of thing still requires Yan to put in the effort himself. We can't do it alone."
"He's still lacking motivation." Zhu Zhuqing said, "Should we put some pressure on him?"
"We'll see." Jiang Mian looked at Xie Yue, who was beaming with joy, and couldn't help but tease, "Look at Xie Yue, he's so smitten he doesn't even know north from south."
"I didn't expect my brother to suddenly open up like this." Hu Liena covered her mouth and laughed, "He even found me such a beautiful sister-in-law."
"And he has such a handsome brother-in-law too." Jiang Mian put his arm around Hu Liena's shoulders, "Nana jie isn't losing out either."
"Oh, you!" Hu Liena nestled against Jiang Mian like a shy little fox, feeling his warmth.
Zhu Zhuqing stood quietly beside Jiang Mian, her expression calm and composed.
"Jiang Mian, the luggage is packed. We can leave." Bear Lord suddenly appeared, "His Highness the Crown Prince just came by again and asked me to give you this."
Bear Lord took out a letter from his pocket. It had gold thread patterns embossed on it, indicating it was for royal use.
"What is it?" Jiang Mian took the letter. It clearly stated: Three days later, the Soul Hunting Plan.
Jiang Mian had discussed Bibi Dong's Soul Hunting Plan with Qian Renxue on the way, so this letter didn't need further explanation, simply conveying the content.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is finished." Jiang Mian looked at the letter and quickly put it away properly. He had intended to discuss it with Bibi Dong after returning to Spirit Hall, but he didn't expect Qian Renxue to act so quickly and have already contacted Bibi Dong.
"Once the Soul Hunting Plan begins, Bibi Dong will definitely send many experts." Jiang Mian said calmly, "We just need to cover the rear. Let them handle the rest."
"If I and Crimson King attack together, it should be simple to destroy that so-called sect, right?" Bear Lord said.
"Naturally, it will be simple." Jiang Mian nodded, "We'll discuss it again when Spirit Hall's people arrive. If they want me to contribute, I'll see what their chips are."
"Is this Spirit Hall?" Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flashed with a hint of shock, and she murmured, "To destroy an Upper Three Sect just like that?"
"In fact, she had been planning this for a long time. I'm just the catalyst." Jiang Mian said, "Besides, with her ambition, Bibi Dong's ambitions go far beyond this."
"Then what about your ambitions?" Zhu Zhuqing looked directly into Jiang Mian's eyes and asked solemnly.
"Me?" Jiang Mian chuckled, "My ambitions are naturally even greater. What are two empires? I want to be the sole sovereign under heaven and earth."
"Interesting." Ghost Douluo's voice came from behind Jiang Mian. He had emerged from Jiang Mian's shadow at some unknown time and said with a light laugh, "Your ambitions are truly great."
"Senior Ghost Douluo." Jiang Mian clasped his fists with both hands. He had sensed the changes in his surroundings since earlier but hadn't been sure which Titled Douluo had arrived.
"The Pope sent me to help you." Ghost Douluo said in his hoarse voice, "Ju Hua Guan and the other soul masters will arrive in three days without fail."
"Three days from now, a two-pronged attack." Jiang Mian was truly looking forward to it, "Let them cause trouble, let it all kick off."
