Mysterious Water Pill!

Seeing Xiang Jun remain silent and thinking she saw through everything, Tang Wutong could not help mentally giving herself a big thumbs-up.

This princess truly has world-shaking wisdom!

"Think whatever you want." Xiang Jun shook his head slightly, turning to continue walking toward the dormitory.

"Hey, wait for me!" Seeing Xiang Jun ignore her, Tang Wutong instantly ground her teeth in anger and hurriedly turned to follow.

Not far behind the two, Huo Yuhao lagged behind, entirely alone.

The sight of Tang Wutong and Xiang Jun chatting and laughing made Huo Yuhao feel a pang of envy in his heart, but remembering their one-in-a-million peerless talents, he inevitably felt somewhat inferior.

If my talent could be as powerful as Senior Xiang Jun's, perhaps Mom wouldn't have...

Huo Yuhao clenched his fists tightly, subconsciously conjuring the image of Dai Huabin, a face he loathed beyond measure, deep within his mind.

"Hey, you're not actually planning to come in, are you?" In front of Dormitory 108, Xiang Jun wore a deadpan expression, looking at Tang Wutong, who feigned nonchalance, and spoke in a helpless tone.

"So what? Since I'm already here, don't you want to invite me in for a sit-down?" Tang Wutong's pretty face flushed, but determined to figure out why her dad passed down his Godhood, she still spoke with righteous confidence.

Why would Dad pass his Godhood inheritance to him?

Could there be something extraordinary about Xiang Jun?

Or perhaps...

A thought that made Tang Wutong's cheeks burn flashed across her mind.

Xiang Jun felt a wave of speechlessness. Gazing at the flustered and elusive pretty figure before him, and taking advantage of the moment Tang Wutong was dazed, he grabbed the clueless Huo Gua, slipped into the dormitory in a flash, and slammed the door shut behind them.

Bang!

The collision of the door echoed. Regaining her senses, Tang Wutong looked at the vanished figure beside her and the tightly closed door in front of her, her psychological defenses instantly shattering.

Ah, ah, ah! This princess sees that you already have the path to taking your own life!

Ignoring the commotion outside the door, Xiang Jun let out a heavy sigh of relief, took out the jade bottle Yan Shaozhe had given him, and felt a surge of curiosity.

The jade bottle opened, revealing a round, blue medicinal pill that came into Xiang Jun's view, accompanied by a faint layer of mist rising within the room.

Mysterious Water Pill? What kind of trash is this!

As a miraculous medicinal pill with a reputation resounding across the continent, the Mysterious Water Pill had the effects of cleansing the marrow, nourishing the meridians, and even increasing the user's Innate Soul Power by one rank.

Yet as the Spirit of the Ocean, formed over thousands of years of nurturing by the ocean, his entire body possessed almost not a single trace of impurity. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to reach Soul Ancestor cultivation at age twelve after reshaping his form.

As for the effect of increasing Innate Soul Power, it was only effective for Soul Masters with first- or second-rank Innate Soul Power.

Therefore, a thing like the Mysterious Water Pill made no difference to him compared to ordinary sugar beans.

Xiang Jun smacked his lips, feeling a sense of dullness.

Yet right at that moment, Xiang Jun suddenly thought of something, subconsciously shifting his gaze toward the nearby Huo Gua, whose eyes were filled with curiosity.

Tsk, although the Mysterious Water Pill was useless to him, to Huo Gua it was practically a tonic of the highest order!

As the Son of Destiny of Douluo Continent, Xiang Jun had already regarded Huo Gua as securely within his grasp.

Thinking of this, Xiang Jun tossed the jade bottle in his hand toward Huo Gua and spoke in a calm tone, "Here, this stuff is useless to me. Take it."

"Ah? Senior Xiang Jun, what is this?" Catching the flying jade bottle in a flurry, Huo Yuhao asked in a puzzled tone.

"Just some bizarre little trinket, it'll do you good."

Xiang Jun did not reveal the name and effects of the Mysterious Water Pill. After all, only when Huo Gua inadvertently learned of the pill's true value later on would he feel even more deeply grateful.

Although running a routine on an innocent little boy gave Xiang Jun a tiny shred of guilt, at least it was far better than having God King Tang slip a dog collar on him.

"This... many thanks, Senior Xiang Jun."

Huo Yuhao pressed his lips together. While feeling moved in his heart, he also unhesitatingly opened the jade bottle and popped the Mysterious Water Pill into his stomach.

Although his mom had warned him with her dying breath never to accept things from strangers lightly, for some reason, Huo Yuhao always found himself inexplicably full of trust toward Xiang Jun.

Seeing Huo Gua swallow the pill without the slightest hesitation, Xiang Jun nodded in satisfaction.

God King Tang, you just keep tangling with those deities in the Divine Realm. By the time you snap back to reality, the Son of Destiny will already be molded entirely in this seat's shape, heh heh heh~

Right at the moment he took the pill, Huo Yuhao suddenly felt a cool sensation emerge out of nowhere in his lower abdomen, which then spread all the way to his limbs.

"Close your eyes and just cultivate with a focused mind." Just as Huo Gua was feeling at a loss, Xiang Jun's voice suddenly reached him.

Hearing these words, Huo Yuhao hurriedly and obediently followed suit.

Watching Huo Gua, who was immersed in his state and enveloped in a layer of pale blue light, Xiang Jun suddenly thought of a fatal problem.

Wait a minute, did taking the Mysterious Water Pill cause one to purge impurities?

I'm done for, this room can't be stayed in anymore!

Xiang Jun's eyelid twitched. He hurriedly got up and left the room, not forgetting to thoughtfully leave behind a few basins of clean water before departing.

"Hmph, you ignored me at my worst, but you won't be able to afford me at my best!"

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully a young girl into poverty!"

In front of Sea God Lake, Tang Wutong angrily kicked a stone at her feet to the side. Remembering how Xiang Jun had ignored her, she instantly ground her teeth in vexation.

This princess has talent, background, looks, and a figure... cough, cough, why are you treating this princess with such a cold attitude?

Thinking of this, Tang Wutong could not help feeling a bit wronged in her heart.

On the other side, Xiang Jun walked quietly along the path, his gaze subconsciously turning toward the direction of Sea God Island.

"Old fogey, are you there? Are you still alive?"

"What old fogey? You must call me Lord Sea God!" A figure slowly drifted out from the trident mark between Xiang Jun's eyebrows, turning out to be none other than the long-vanished First Generation Sea God, Poseidon!

"Speak, what business do you have calling this deity out?" Poseidon picked at his ear, his flippant and utterly undignified demeanor leaving Xiang Jun feeling deeply helpless.

"Senior, you said I had to enter the Golden Ancient Tree no matter what—what on earth is that for?" Xiang Jun voiced the question that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

Besides, was Ah Yin already parasitizing the roots of the Golden Ancient Tree by now?

"This, well, naturally it's to go see an old friend. After all, my Sea God Godhood has already been passed down. If you want to become the new generation Sea God, the difficulty is soaring to the heavens, and we can't do without his help."

Mentioning the Sea God Godhood seemed to trigger Poseidon's underlying code, as he began buzzing in Xiang Jun's ear about God King Tang once again.

Ignoring Poseidon's incessant chatter, a name suddenly flashed across Xiang Jun's mind.

Plane Master!

The Golden Ancient Tree was the Core of Life of the entire Douluo Star, carrying endless Origin Power.
