Glory of the Six-Winged Angel (Requesting Recommendation Tickets, Requesting Follow-Reads)
"Phew... Good thing I didn't tell the part where Bodhi Founder drove Sun Wukong away. Otherwise, they definitely would have held me up again."
After walking some distance away, Gu Han let out a long sigh of relief.
"What are you doing out here at this hour instead of going back to your dormitory, kid?"
Yue Guan appeared before Gu Han. He was leaning against the wall, one arm folded across his chest while the other held a chrysanthemum beneath his nose as he inhaled its fragrance.
"Senior Yue Guan." Gu Han gave a slight bow and explained, "I just came back from Senior Sister's place and was about to head back."
Yue Guan put away the chrysanthemum, walked over with his hands behind his back, and asked, "Mm, how did today's lessons feel?"
"Mm, my classmates are much stronger than Spirit Masters of the same rank that I encountered at the Great Soul Arena. Teacher Ghost Leopard's teaching methods are also quite unique. I benefited greatly."
"That's good. Take this." As he spoke, Yue Guan handed a Gold-Covered Book to Gu Han.
"This is the knowledge about flowers and herbs that you asked me for before. There are plenty of Immortal Grade flowers and herbs inside that you've never even heard of. Study it well."
Gu Han reached out, accepted it, and flipped it open. The very first page introduced the Immortal Grade Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.
"Thank you, Senior. Then this Junior will head back and study it first."
"Go on. Come ask me if there's anything you don't understand." Yue Guan waved his hand.
After Gu Han left, a shadow appeared, and a figure clad in Black Armor gradually emerged from it.
"I say, Chrysanthemum Guan, is this kid really as outstanding as you claim?"
As though he had noticed the other person long ago, Yue Guan nodded without turning around. "Naturally. If this child weren't exceptional, His Holiness the Pope would never have taken him as a disciple."
"Mm."
Gui Mei nodded slightly before saying, "I found out what you asked me to investigate. This kid's parents were originally two independent cultivators. Their Soul Power wasn't high; they were merely two Soul Kings."
"Oh? Then where are his parents now?"
"They died Twelve Years Ago. From what I learned, they were killed by Evil Soul Masters."
"Dead..."
Yue Guan frowned slightly. No wonder the kid had been abandoned since childhood.
So that was what happened.
Come to think of it, how could parents bear to casually abandon their own child?
"Ah, what a pitiful child." Yue Guan sighed sympathetically, then asked, "What happened to the Evil Soul Masters who killed the kid's parents?"
"They were also dealt with by the local Spirit Hall Twelve Years Ago."
Gui Mei glanced at Yue Guan and asked, "Are you going to tell the kid?"
Yue Guan nodded, then Shook Head. "He'll have to be told eventually, but he's still too weak right now. Let's wait until he grows stronger. Otherwise, I'm afraid he'll do something foolish."
"Suit yourself, then. Also, don't go back on your promise to treat me to wine and meat."
"Of course not. I won't let you make the trip for nothing." Yue Guan waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to say more.
"Come on. Let me give you a taste of the Hundred Flowers Brew I made myself."
After returning to his lodgings, Gu Han sat down at his desk and opened the book Yue Guan had given him.
Although he had watched the anime and read many novels, so many years had passed that he no longer remembered what those Immortal Herbs looked like or how they should be harvested.
Obtaining this book now was partly for that reason.
Besides, the Immortal Herbs in the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well were not limited to those Tang San had given the Seven Devils. He had kept plenty for himself, after all. That guy had stripped Dugu Bo's medicinal garden bare.
The book contained a great deal of knowledge about Immortal Herbs, and it was extremely comprehensive. Yue Guan had even included his own illustrations beside them.
It covered not only Immortal Herbs, but also the knowledge of many high-quality flowers and herbs.
Thinking that all this knowledge had been provided by Yue Guan's Martial Soul, Gu Han could not help but grumble inwardly, With such extensive knowledge of medicinal herbs, how was he stuck at Level 95?
Logically, with Yue Guan's knowledge of medicinal herbs, even without the aid of Immortal Herbs, he should have been able to use other herbs to improve his aptitude. So why had he stopped at Level 95?
It was truly puzzling. Even when Yue Guan eventually cultivated the Indestructible Body, he still failed to break through to Level 96. Could he really have been restricted by some unknowable Villain Aura?
Shaking his head, Gu Han decided not to think about such useless matters for now. Since he had become involved, he would do his best to help Yue Guan.
Besides, although Chrysanthemum Douluo was a bit effeminate, his character was perfectly decent. He had also taken especially good care of Gu Han, so it was a pity for him to be stuck at Level 95.
As it happened, the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well contained an Immortal Grade Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, one that shared the same origin as Yue Guan's Martial Soul.
Its effects would certainly be far greater on him than on Dai Mubai.
Gu Han flipped through the knowledge of each Immortal Grade herb. There were even some that had never been introduced in the original work.
For example, the Netherworld Higanbana and the Nine Petal Immortal Lotus.
However, none of these Immortal Herbs suited Gu Han, so he turned his attention to the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot.
Combined with Ice and Fire Body Tempering, his physique would surely rise to an even greater level, and his insufficient innate talent would be completely remedied.
As for the trait of Ice and Fire Immunity, ice immunity did not matter much, but fire immunity would be quite useful to Gu Han.
That way, whenever he encountered Fire Attribute Spirit Masters in the future, he could completely crush them.
Worship Hall.
Qian Daoliu returned here and summoned Qian Xunji.
"Father, you called for me."
"Mm. This is eighty-thousand-year Whale Rubber. Take it and give it a try."
Qian Daoliu turned around, took out the highest-quality piece of Whale Rubber from his Soul Tool, and tossed it over.
Qian Xunji caught it. The Whale Rubber in his hand contained an extremely powerful energy.
This energy was not Burst, but gentle. Even an ordinary person would be fine after consuming it, though it would waste the immense amount of energy contained within.
"Thank you for making the trip, Father."
Qian Xunji naturally knew that his father had gone out. Now, bringing back a portion of eighty-thousand-year Whale Rubber was all for his sake.
When he was young, Qian Xunji had focused solely on raising his Soul Power Level, leaving his foundation unstable and his later progress lacking.
After breaking through to become a Title Douluo, instead of continuing to cultivate with the unstoppable momentum of previous owners of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, he had felt his own bottleneck.
Advancing each level had become increasingly difficult. If this continued, he would likely stop at Level 96.
Every generation of Angel Douluo had reached Level 99. How could it fail when it came to him?
The glory of the Six-Winged Angel lineage made Qian Xunji unable to accept such an outcome, and he had constantly been searching for a way to improve his aptitude.
