Gangzi's Effeminate Side

After Xiao Wu finished refining the Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum's medicinal effects, she successfully reached the level twenty bottleneck. After seeking Lin Chen's permission, she immediately began condensing her second Spirit Ring.

As that golden Spirit Ring began to pulse in rhythm with her first ring,

Xiao Wu officially broke through to the Great Soul Master realm.

Moreover, her soul power level soared all the way to level twenty-two.

In other words,

the Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum had granted her a full eleven levels of soul power.

Xiao Wu opened her eyes, her face brimming with excitement.

She rose to her feet and gave Lin Chen, who sat at the bedside, a deep bow.

"Thank you, Master!"

She truly hadn't expected that after coming to the human world for barely over a month, she had not only resolved the greatest flaw of a Transformed Soul Beast, but had also directly crossed an entire major realm.

And Lin Chen had given her all of this. How could she not be grateful?

Lin Chen stood up. "Words of thanks aren't necessary. They don't mean much. If you really want to thank me, show it through your actions."

Xiao Wu nodded heavily. "I'll go find someone to teach me right now."

Lin Chen nodded. "You can learn, but don't neglect your cultivation. If you can't reach the Soul Ancestor realm before graduation, then you're not worth much."

Transformed Soul Beasts already cultivated faster than ordinary Spirit Masters. Now that she had advanced an entire major realm, reaching Soul Ancestor before graduation would definitely not be difficult.

Xiao Wu made no verbal promise. She merely nodded heavily.

Her third ring could still grant her one more level of soul power. In other words, she only needed to cultivate seventeen levels of soul power within six years to reach level forty.

For her, that truly wasn't difficult.

But if that was all she achieved, she would be letting down Lin Chen's efforts in nurturing her.

At the very least, she had to reach level forty-five.

Level forty-five was the goal Xiao Wu set for herself in her heart.

After leaving the room,

Lin Chen returned to his own dormitory, while Xiao Wu went to find her noble classmates.

More than a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Yu Xiaogang's insane exploits had long since spread throughout Nuoding City and were now gradually being passed across the entire continent.

Yu Xiaogang was now too ashamed to face anyone. He no longer taught classes, and even had Tang San bring him meals. Every day, he hid in his dormitory.

Whenever Lin Chen thought of this, he wanted to give Tang San a thumbs-up.

Tang San might have problems from head to toe, but when it came to filial piety and respecting his master, there was truly nothing to criticize.

Even after Yu Xiaogang had become like that, he still hadn't betrayed his master.

Not only had he not betrayed his master, he even continued to show Yu Xiaogang the same respect as before. If anyone dared say a single bad word about Yu Xiaogang, Tang San would immediately get angry with them.

Even knowing he couldn't beat Lin Chen, he still dared bare his teeth despite knowing he'd get beaten.

Of course, if he asked for a beating, he got one.

Over the past month or so, the bruises on Tang San's face had barely faded.

"Master, does it feel good?"

In the dormitory, Lin Chen lay facedown on the bed while Xiao Wu sat on his back, showing off the massage techniques she had just learned.

"Not bad."

[Destiny altered successfully. Please choose one reward from the following.]

The script Lin Chen had written was for the story to spread across the entire continent, so it was only considered complete today. That meant Gangzi's glorious exploits had already spread throughout the continent.

In just over a month, it had happened faster than he'd expected.

But...

Only one reward. It seemed Gangzi's reputation wasn't worth much either.

"Alright, that's enough for today."

Lin Chen was eager to inspect the rewards, so he immediately started sending her away.

"Yes, Master."

Xiao Wu didn't say anything else and promptly climbed off him.

After putting on her shoes, she folded her hands before her lower abdomen and gave Lin Chen a slight bow. "Master, if you need anything, please call for me at any time."

Lin Chen turned over. "Alright."

The results of her studies over the past month were obvious to the naked eye. Lin Chen had gotten a small taste of the decadent life of the nobility.

Though only a small taste, since Xiao Wu was still young.

There were many things she couldn't yet demonstrate.

But judging from how often she bought bananas,

it wasn't hard to see that she had already started preparing in advance.

After giving another bow, Xiao Wu finally left Lin Chen's dormitory.

Lin Chen also opened the system reward pool panel.

[Reward One: Gold Soul Coins ×9191.]

[Reward Two: Loyalty Contract. Once the target willingly signs the contract, they will maintain absolute loyalty to the host and never betray them through three lives and three lifetimes.]

[Reward Three: System-Bestowed Spirit Ring ×1.]

[Reward Four: 500 years of Spirit Ring age.]

[Reward Five: Gold Soul Coins ×6327.]

Seeing the fifth reward, Lin Chen sighed helplessly.

It seemed one useless reward was guaranteed.

The Loyalty Contract was good, though. Perhaps one day he could secure a Titled Douluo thug, or even a god-level thug.

To prepare for any contingency, Lin Chen directly chose the second reward.

He just didn't know when he would get to use it.

Just as Lin Chen was still considering who to use the Loyalty Contract on, Bibi Dong of Spirit Hall was seething with rage.

She sat upright upon the throne belonging solely to the Pope, her face as dark as water and her fists clenched tightly. Terrifying soul power pressure enveloped the entire Papal Hall.

"Men, men..."

The incomparably icy words squeezed through Bibi Dong's clenched teeth.

She could barely understand Yu Xiaogang doing that kind of filthy thing with a woman in public, but why did it have to be a man?

At the same time, she couldn't understand it. Given how much Yu Xiaogang valued his reputation, how could he possibly do such a filthy thing with a man in public?

Wasn't reputation the thing he cared about most in his life?

Even seeking thrills wasn't done this way, was it?

Something abnormal was definitely going on. He absolutely hadn't done it willingly.

He had to have been coerced.

"Guards!"

Bibi Dong abruptly raised her head and shouted fiercely toward the outside of the hall.

A hall-protecting knight entered upon hearing her call.

Before he could bow, Bibi Dong directly ordered, "Now, immediately, send someone to Nuoding City and investigate the Master's matter thoroughly."

"Yes!"

The hall-protecting knight responded with a bow and was about to leave the hall.

"Wait!"

Bibi Dong raised a hand to stop him. Only after hesitating for a moment did she speak.

"Have Elder Lingyuan go personally."

No matter how useless Yu Xiaogang was, he was still Yu Yuanzhen's son. That identity alone was enough to intimidate most people.

Even so, he had still been forced into doing that kind of thing.

This showed that whoever had coerced him was no ordinary person.

Lingyuan's strength might not be sufficient either, but she represented Spirit Hall. Even if they were given ten times the courage, the other side wouldn't dare offend Spirit Hall.

"Yes!"

The hall-protecting knight bowed again before finally leaving the Papal Hall.

"Whew!"

Bibi Dong took a deep breath and temporarily forced down the anger in her heart.

She would wait for the results.

If he truly had been coerced, then whoever was responsible could prepare to bear Bibi Dong's wrath.

If... there was no other possibility.

She didn't dare imagine how she would face Xiaogang if he hadn't been coerced.
