Whose Daughter Is She?
After leaving the Golden Ancient Tree Xu Xingyu arrived at his dormitory in the Inner Court and immediately began to sense his physical condition.
This result was quite surprising to him, because after absorbing the Seed of Life, Xu Xingyu's Soul Power, Spiritual Power, and Bloodline Power all experienced significant improvements.
In terms of Soul Power, he had just broken through to the Soul Ancestor level, but now he was close to the Soul King level. Xu Xingyu was fully confident that he could completely break through to the Soul King this month.
Regarding his Spiritual Power, he was originally only at the initial stage of the Spirit Abyss Realm, with about five thousand mental points. Now, however, his mental strength has more than doubled, reaching over ten thousand mental points.
As for Qi and blood, the life energy brought by the Seed of Life resonated with the remaining power of the immortal Immortal Herb in Xu Xingyu's body, making his physical body comparable to that of Soul Douluo.
How to put it? Xu Xingyu really wanted to ask herself now: was it really necessary for her to stay at the Shrek Academy?
It felt like I could already crush most of the students in the Inner Court; only those senior students who had long since advanced to Soul Douluo or above could rival me.
Wouldn't it be a bit of a rip-off for someone like me to participate in the Soul Master Tournament? You'd be lucky to even get a Soul Emperor among your opponents in the Soul Master Tournament.
It would be a bit boring to go into the ring and take down an opponent with one punch.
At worst, I'll be my last resort, letting my teammates do the work, and I'll only step in when the team needs me.
After devising a plan to slack off during the Soul Master Tournament, Xu Xingyu took out her Spirit Contract Pagoda -specific communicator and contacted Gu Yuena, agreeing to meet at the Spirit Contract Pagoda the next day.
However, when they met again the next day, the scene before her eyes was somewhat different from what Xu Xingyu had imagined.
He had initially thought this would be a time just for him and Gu Yuena, but the scene before him proved otherwise.
Gu Yuena was sitting quietly in a chair, waiting for Xu Xingyu to speak, with Xu Yanxue and Wang Dong'er beside her.
In addition, Jiang Nannan, Xu Xingyu's secretary, was teaching Gu Qiuxi, who worked at the Spirit Contract Pagoda, how to prepare tea.
Xu Yanxue didn't make any move at this moment, but quietly drank her tea, while Wang Dong'er closed her eyes and looked impatient.
To an outsider, the scene wouldn't evoke any particular feeling; at most, they might marvel at the sheer number of beautiful women gathered together.
However, for Xu Xingyu, this scene was somewhat agonizing. For some reason, Xu Xingyu could feel a strong sense of oppression from the other people.
Although she didn't know why, Xu Xingyu could still understand that the girls in front of her were furious.
But if he had to say what mistake he made, it would probably be that he overdid it with his cultivation and didn't spend enough time with them. But this time, he had entered a state of Deep Meditation!
This situation cannot be generalized at all; he has no way of controlling Deep Meditation or how much time is needed to refine the Seed of Life!
Was it a bit much to blame herself for this reason? However, what she said next made Xu Xingyu understand why they were so angry.
Gu Yuena coldly replied, "Tell me, which girl have you messed with this time? And now you have a daughter too?"
Upon hearing the words "I have another daughter," Xu Xingyu was completely stunned, thinking, "How did they know about this?!"
Unbeknownst to Xu Xingyu, after he was assigned a dormitory room, Jiang Nannan also learned from the college's teachers that Xu Xingyu.
This made her very happy, so she decided to visit her boyfriend, whom she hadn't seen for a month.
As a result, he overheard Xu Xingyu talking to herself outside the door, wondering how to explain to everyone that she had another daughter.
Jiang Nannan immediately relayed the news to the other girls, which led to the current scene.
Seeing Xu Xingyu's expression, Gu Yuena's face became even colder. Clearly, she took Xu Xingyu's reaction as a tacit agreement (which was indeed the case).
At this moment, Wang Dong'er, who was standing to the side, said with an expression of looking at a scumbag, "Is it that senior named Ma Xiaotao? Well, she's got a good figure, it's normal for people to be fascinated by her."
As if giving Xu Xingyu no chance to explain, Xu Yanxue chimed in, "Brother Xingyu, I'm very disappointed in you. You already have us, yet you still went around flirting with other girls behind our backs."
"And we also have a daughter," Jiang Nannan added.
Gu Qiuxi, who was standing to the side, did not say anything, but her scrutinizing gaze was still very piercing.
To clear up the misunderstanding as soon as possible, Xu Xingyu shouted, "I have no relation to Ma Xiaotao! That so-called daughter has no blood relation to me!"
But this statement did not dispel the doubts of the girls present. Instead, they retorted sarcastically, "So you've taken a fancy to a married woman? And you've even recognized her daughter as your own?"
Xu Xingyu looked utterly dejected; he was truly innocent! Did he really have to die unjustly today?!
Fortunately, just as the women were about to attack Xu Xingyu, Gu Yuena, as Xu Xingyu's official wife, spoke up to stop them and gave Xu Xingyu a chance to explain herself.
If this explanation displeases Gu Yuena, then he's basically finished for today.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xingyu recounted her entire story about the Golden Ancient Tree without hesitation, and then explained how the Golden Ancient Tree had become his daughter.
After hearing Xu Xingyu's story, the women were not convinced at first and still looked at Xu Xingyu with suspicion.
However, when Xu Xingyu summoned the avatar of the Golden Ancient Tree through the Seed of Life, she saw the little girl who embodied the will of the Golden Ancient Tree and asked Xu Xingyu with an innocent expression, "Daddy, what do you want to see me about?"
Yes, Xu Xingyu can summon a clone of the Golden Ancient Tree through the Seed of Life, and the appearance of this clone is actually a scaled-down version of the humanoid form of the Golden Ancient Tree that Xu Xingyu saw.
It transformed from the original Greater Lord Rukkhadevata into the Lesser Lord Kusanali.
However, the will of this clone is still the will of the Golden Ancient Tree itself, and it is connected to the original Golden Ancient Tree; there is no such thing as multiple personalities.
After seeing the clone of the Golden Ancient Tree Golden Ancient Tree and feeling its identical aura, the women finally believed Xu Xingyu's words.
Realizing that they might have been too sensitive, and that it was also a sign that they hadn't fully trusted each other's character, the women immediately apologized to Xu Xingyu, because their behavior was somewhat inappropriate for lovers.
Although Xu Xingyu still felt somewhat wronged, he didn't pursue the matter further, after all, they were his future wives.
Xu Xingyu has already openly established a harem, so it's normal for her to be questioned in matters of the heart. She may face many similar incidents in the future, so she hopes to gain more trust in herself.
