Chapter 108: Yu Xiaogang’s Breakdown, Qin Xiao’s Gift of Immortal Grass



Chapter 108: Yu Xiaogang's Breakdown, Qin Xiao's Gift of Immortal Grass

Who else would make such a masochistic request?

Qin Xiao was somewhat surprised, not expecting Yu Xiaogang to show such great courage.

Of course.

For Yu Xiaogang's suicidal behavior, Qin Xiao saw no reason to refuse.

Crack.

A thick current of electricity fell upon Yu Xiaogang.

"Ah ah ah"

Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but let out a scream of pain.

"Your Majesty."

Liu Erlong, hearing this, trembled inside, instinctively wanting Qin Xiao to stop.

But Yu Xiaogang spoke before her, "Er, Erlong, don't stop him."

Then, he said to Qin Xiao, "I, I feel, the soul power inside me increasing, please increase the power of the thunder."

Qin Xiao nodded silently without saying a word.

He increased the output of the thunderous power.

Immediately, Yu Xiaogang's screams resounded once more, but though he was screaming, everyone could see he was smiling.

Very eerie.

"Wait, Xiaogang's face..."

Suddenly, Liu Erlong furrowed her brow, noticing that the wrinkles on Yu Xiaogang's face had become even deeper.

"His hair, has also turned white!"

Flender's pupils also suddenly constricted, his face showing a look of shock.

They remembered what Qin Xiao had said earlier, in Yu Xiaogang's case, persisting in the thunderous body tempering without potential, what's being depleted would be his life.

Both he and Liu Erlong knew that Yu Xiaogang had entered the process of sacrificing his life.

But now, could they really stop him?
Seeing Yu Xiaogang continuously shouting, again, again!

Like he had gone mad, even if they wanted to stop him, could they?
Obviously, it was impossible!
Liu Erlong could no longer bear to watch.

Flender also closed his eyes.

After a long while.

The purple electricity in the room suddenly extinguished like a candle flame.

"How, it stopped?"

Yu Xiaogang asked hoarsely.

Hearing his voice, Liu Erlong and Flender also looked over.

But when they clearly saw Yu Xiaogang's condition, they were both speechless.

White-haired, face full of wrinkles, no longer standing tall, looking as if he could be buried within a couple of years.

The current Yu Xiaogang, compared to before, seemed to have aged decades.

"Your Majesty, why have you stopped? I feel like I'm just a bit away from breaking through level twenty-nine, I can hold on."

Yu Xiaogang looked at Qin Xiao, puzzled.

"Perhaps you should take a look at yourself first."

Qin Xiao said flatly, his voice devoid of any emotion.

In his view, Yu Xiaogang's life was at most another two or three years.

"What's wrong with me?"

Yu Xiaogang instinctively stretched out his hand.

Instantly, he was shocked.

His cloudy eyes filled with disbelief.

His skin, which was somewhat normal before, now was dry, devoid of any moisture or luster.

"Is this really my hand?"

"It looks like a tree root!"

"Is this real?"

He tremblingly lifted his hand, examining it closely. Then he raised his hand again, touching his face.

When his hand touched his cheek, he froze.

"Erlong, do you have a mirror?"

He instinctively looked towards Liu Erlong.

Liu Erlong opened her mouth, "Xiaogang."

Yu Xiaogang insisted, "Don't stop me, I want to see what I've become!"

"Ah." Liu Erlong sighed deeply but still handed over a mirror to Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang hastily took it.

"Is this really me?"

"How did I become like this!?"

When he saw himself in the mirror, he was dumbfounded.

Crack, the mirror slipped from his hands and shattered.

"Eat whatever you like, do whatever you want to do. Of course, if you still have the strength."

"If there are no accidents, you don't have much time left."

After finishing, Qin Xiao stood up.

Liu Erlong and Flender, seeing this, made way at the door, allowing Qin Xiao to leave.

When only Liu Erlong, Flender, and Yu Xiaogang were left in the room, the air seemed to freeze.

Thump.

Yu Xiaogang slumped to the ground.

"Xiaogang, calm down."

Seeing this, Flender moved to help Yu Xiaogang up.

But Yu Xiaogang pushed his hand away.

He coldly looked at Flender and said harshly, "Calm down, how do you expect me to calm down? Flender, I'm about to die!"

"I could have lived for several more decades, but now I only have a few years left, I'm going to die!"

"And I've spent decades of my life, yet I still haven't broken through the level thirty threshold."

He had truly broken down.

Now, having lost his life and not increased his strength, Yu Xiaogang felt as if all his efforts had been in vain.

Flender frowned, "What do you mean, are you blaming me? We, Erlong and I, advised you to give up, you insisted on asking Thunder Emperor to help you, and now you're blaming me?"

"This..."

Yu Xiaogang's expression stiffened, then his face twisted even more fiercely, "Is that few words considered advice?"

"What are you saying?" Flender's face darkened instantly, "The path one walks is of one's own choosing, you can't blame me for this, can you?"

"You need to understand, advising you was out of goodwill, not advising you was also within my rights! I don't owe you anything."

Hearing Flender's words, Yu Xiaogang was at a loss for words.

In his memory, whatever he said, Flender would hardly ever retort.

"Ha ha ha, fine, very well. So this is your true face, Flender?"

Yu Xiaogang suddenly laughed, "I get it now, you must be wishing for my death, so you can freely pursue Erlong, right?"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Flender was furious.

"You're panicking, panicking! That must have hit the nail on the head!"

Yu Xiaogang pointed at Flender, appearing as if he had figured it all out.

"Enough!"

At this moment, Liu Erlong's voice rang out, her brow furrowed, her face serious, "Xiaogang, how can you say such things about Flender? You should know, if it weren't for him bringing Thunder Emperor here, you wouldn't have had this chance."

"Erlong, why are you defending him too?"

Yu Xiaogang was stunned, he felt as if Liu Erlong's words were in his favor.

Liu Erlong shook her head, "Xiaogang, you're wrong. I'm speaking out of principle, not taking sides."

Yu Xiaogang suddenly laughed again, "Ha ha, so you're saying, I should thank Flender? Thank him for turning me from a waste into a dying waste?"

Hearing this, Flender's face instantly turned red with rage, his fists crunching.

He didn't expect Yu Xiaogang to be so ungrateful and hurtful with his words.

Yu Xiaogang had brought this upon himself, hadn't he?
What did it have to do with him?
"Yu Xiaogang, that's enough, saying such things will hurt Flender."

Liu Erlong also spoke sternly.

"Flender will be hurt?" Yu Xiaogang's expression drifted for a moment before asking Liu Erlong, "Have you ever considered that saying such things will also hurt me? Now I'm even beginning to doubt whether you and Flender have conspired against me.

Right, if I die, you'll have enough reason to be together openly!"

As his voice fell, Liu Erlong's eyes instantly reddened.

She had silently given so much for Yu Xiaogang to improve.

And all she got in return was such suspicion?

"Shut up!"

Flender could no longer restrain himself, took two steps to Yu Xiaogang, grabbed his collar, and slapped him hard.

"You, you hit me?"

Yu Xiaogang was shocked, never expecting Flender to actually hit him.

"Hitting you is the least of it. If it weren't for Erlong's sake, I'd want to kill you."

"Do you know how much Erlong sacrificed to get Thunder Emperor to help you? And yet you insult her like this! Have you eaten your conscience?"

Flender and Yu Xiaogang glared at each other.

"What's the use of all the sacrifices?"

"Look at me now, was it worth it?"

Yu Xiaogang touched the blood at the corner of his mouth and sneered, "I think that Thunder Emperor is also a charlatan with no real ability. A Title Douluo in his teens is just a joke. I think you've all been deceived by him."

He looked at Liu Erlong and Flender as if they were fools.

"Yu Xiaogang, have you ever considered looking for the reasons within yourself?"

Finally, Liu Erlong couldn't hold back any longer, her face full of disappointment as she looked at Yu Xiaogang, "Why is it always someone else's fault?"

"My fault?"

"Flender, Liu Erlong, do you not understand, I'm a victim, how can I be wrong?"

Yu Xiaogang not only thought he was right but also felt he was the innocent party.

Liu Erlong fell silent.

Flender also fell silent.

They never expected Yu Xiaogang to so shamelessly blame everyone else.

Is the victim always right?

Sigh.
Liu Erlong was silent for a long while before letting out a long sigh.

She no longer looked at Yu Xiaogang but turned to Flender, "Flender, please take him out. I want to be alone."

"Don't worry, I absolutely won't let him disturb you."

After Flender spoke, he picked up Yu Xiaogang with one hand and headed towards the door.

"No, I'm not going, I'll stay right here."

"Let me go!"

Yu Xiaogang struggled and yelled desperately.

However, with his current physique, taking three steps required him to catch his breath twice; he was no match for Flender, a Soul Sage-level powerhouse.

So, no matter how much he struggled, it was futile.

He was carried out the door by Flender like one might carry a pet cat.

As Yu Xiaogang's cries grew distant, Liu Erlong sat down in a daze.

"How could Yu Xiaogang become like this..."

She agonizingly gripped her hair, her pretty face turning pale.

Every word from Yu Xiaogang was like a knife to her heart, shredding the image she held dear.

Clang.

She pulled out a bottle of strong liquor from her spatial soul device.

Pop.

She uncorked the bottle and began to drink deeply, wanting to numb herself.

One bottle, two bottles, three bottles...

Knock, knock, knock.

The sound of knocking interrupted Zhu Zhuqing's meditation.

"Is it His Majesty?"

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes lit up.

Her residence was next to Qin Xiao's, with Meng Yiran on the other side, specially prepared by Blue Tyrant Academy.

This area was considered off-limits in the academy.

No student could step foot here, and even Teacher Liu Erlong couldn't enter without permission.

Creak.

The door opened.

Zhu Zhuqing indeed saw a familiar figure.

The next moment, she was pulled into Qin Xiao's embrace.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Zhu Zhuqing's face turned red instantly.

"I came to see if you missed me."

Qin Xiao smiled lightly, his breath warm on the girl's ear.

"Your Majesty."

Zhu Zhuqing lightly chided.

The next moment, Qin Xiao carried her to the bed.

However, Qin Xiao didn't make any further moves.

Instead, he took out a white, glowing herb.

It looked pristine, like a white lotus.

"What is this?"

Zhu Zhuqing immediately showed a puzzled look, "I've never seen such a beautiful herb."

"Hehe, like it?"

"It's for you."

Qin Xiao asked with a smile.

Times had changed, and Zhu Zhuqing's relationship with Qin Xiao was much closer than before, so he couldn't treat her as he did others.

Qin Xiao was cold to others, lacking warmth, even indifferent. But he would never mistreat his women.

"I like it."

Zhu Zhuqing smiled and nodded, her face full of happiness, "Anything given by Your Majesty, Zhuqing likes. I will take good care of this herb, ensuring it never withers."

"Ha ha, silly girl, this immortal herb isn't just for looking at."

Qin Xiao shook his head with a laugh, suggesting using the herb as an ornamental plant was somewhat wasteful.

"Not for looking at?" Zhu Zhuqing frowned, puzzled.

No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't understand. If flowers and plants weren't for admiring, what else could they be used for?

"This is called Water Immortal Jade Muscle Grass. Consuming it will enhance your cultivation level, improve your physique, and increase your potential."

"Your cultivation up to the level of a Soul Saint will face no bottlenecks."

Speaking, Qin Xiao revealed a mischievous smile, "Even more, it will make your skin even more supple."

"What?"

Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Zhu Zhuqing showed an incredulous look.

"Ha ha."

Seeing her reaction, Qin Xiao laughed, pinching Zhu Zhuqing's cute nose, "Don't be so skeptical. You'll see the effects after taking it. Remember, eat the petals first, then suck on the stamen, and you need to use your soul power to absorb the medicine."

"Got it!"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded seriously.

"Alright, then start."

After Qin Xiao spoke, he gently placed Zhu Zhuqing on the bed.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't hesitate, choosing to unconditionally believe in Qin Xiao's words.

Following Qin Xiao's instructions, Zhu Zhuqing proceeded step by step.

In no time, Zhu Zhuqing had consumed the Water Immortal Jade Muscle Grass.

"Your Majesty, something's happening!"

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes showed surprise.

"That's right," Qin Xiao nodded with a smile, advising, "Close your eyes, focus your mind, and use your soul power to dissolve the medicine. Begin your transformation!"

"Okay!"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded vigorously and started to do as Qin Xiao had instructed.

After a while, Qin Xiao could clearly feel strong soul power burgeoning within Zhu Zhuqing's body, her cultivation level continuously strengthening.

"I wonder how many levels she will advance after assimilating the Water Immortal Jade Muscle Grass?" Qin Xiao thought curiously.
