Ye Junqing said, "Actually, I have to thank this incident. If it weren't for this, Ling Feng would still be pestering me relentlessly. It's just that Little Qiang suffered an unwarranted attack, which makes me feel quite guilty..."

"It's okay." Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hand and said, "I actually think it's a good thing to have fought Ling Feng, because in less than half a month, I'll be fighting someone whose cultivation base is at the Third Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage. This cultivation has always made me feel uneasy. Today's fight gave me a clear understanding of the power of the Third Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage, which is immensely helpful for the duel half a month later..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Junqing couldn't help but ask, "Little Qiang, are you dueling with the Second Crown Prince, Long Tian?"

Wang Xiaoqiang was slightly surprised. He stared closely at Ye Junqing and asked, "How do you know?"

Not many people knew about Wang Xiaoqiang's arrangement to duel with Long Tian, and he hadn't publicized it. He couldn't understand how Ye Junqing had come to know about it.

Ye Junqing's face turned red all at once, and she lowered her somewhat moist eyes. She said, "The truth is, I happened to pass by your cottage that day and overheard this matter..."

This explanation seems reasonable, but the problem is that Ye Junqing hadn't interacted with Wang Xiaoqiang before. How did she know about Wang Xiaoqiang's cottage? Moreover, she happened to pass by it, which seemed coincidental yet somewhat far-fetched.

Why did she go to Wang Xiaoqiang's cottage for no reason?

This inevitably surprised both Wang Xiaoqiang and Tian Yunyi. However, seeing Ye Junqing's shy and obscure manner, they didn't ask further.

Wang Xiaoqiang saw that the two women's skirts were damaged in multiple places and urged, "Yun Yi, both you and Junqing should go change your clothes. I'll help you hang the painting..."

As the saying goes, men shouldn't bare their navels and women shouldn't expose their skin. The two women looked down at the damaged parts of their clothes, revealing their skin, which inevitably made them feel embarrassed, so they both nodded and went to change their clothes.

Wang Xiaoqiang helped hang the painting in the Pill Room. Boss Tian's eyes immediately lit up, seeing the painting and hearing the Yellow Oriole's melodious call from it, which astonished and delighted him.

To show his gratitude, he immediately took out a box of Superior Pills and gave it to Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang was currently short on pills, and naturally wouldn't refuse them if someone offered, so he accepted them unhesitatingly and didn't mention anything about money.

After all, the situation was different from last time. Last time he didn't have enough money, and the extra pills were as though taken for free, which he felt guilty about. This time, having helped the Tian Family significantly, accepting some pills was justified.

With a thought, he tossed the pills into the Sumeru Ring, then bid farewell to Boss Tian and returned to the cottage.

By this time, night had fallen. Dai Yu had freshened up and was sitting on the soft couch inside the house, waiting for Wang Xiaoqiang to return.

Upon hearing Wang Xiaoqiang's footsteps, Dai Yu snapped out of her thoughts and quickly shook her head to dispel the images from her mind, then took out a book and began to flip through it pretentiously. Due to some nervousness, the words on the pages eluded her vision, yet she maintained a look of serious concentration.

Wang Xiaoqiang entered the room and saw Dai Yu, washed and fresh, sitting on the soft couch reading a book. The candlelight revealed her focused expression and knowledge, displaying a solemn beauty.

She was wrapped in a green robe with lace, which accentuated her slender and graceful figure. Her shoulders and back were quite delicate.

...

Over the following week, Wang Xiaoqiang attended school with Dai Yu during the day; life was calm and joyful. Of course, he didn't forget about his cultivation. After a week of cultivation, his cultivation base had made substantial progress. However, as he cultivated, the pills in the Sumeru Ring were nearly depleted. That night, during cultivation, he had a strong premonition of a breakthrough. So, he decided to take out the remaining five Superior Pills from the Sumeru Ring, place them on the ground, and release 15,000,000 Spiritual Springs for absorption...

Absorb, absorb, absorb, absorb, absorb, absorb...

After being plush-fed by 15,000,000 Spiritual Springs, divisions began to take place, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff...

Divided into two, 15,000,000 Spiritual Springs became 30,000,000 Spiritual Springs. With a thought, 30,000,000 Spiritual Springs rushed into his body. At this moment, the total number of Spiritual Springs in his body reached 60,109,600. 60,109,600 Spiritual Springs all vibrated together, Spiritual Energy surged, condensing into Soldier Aura, then flowed to the second Divine Weapon Embryo, which was about to solidify in his body.

The lightning-shaped Divine Weapon, after absorbing ample Soldier Aura, finally solidified.

And then, with a crash, it dispersed, transforming into Soldier Aura.

Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hands, Spiritual Power surged, condensing into a lightning-shaped Divine Weapon in both hands respectively.

The Second Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage has been broken through!

Just as Wang Xiaoqiang had broken through to the Second Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage, three mysterious figures appeared in the courtyard like ghosts. Upon their appearance, the Patterned Beast on Wang Xiaoqiang's back let out a sharp warning. (To be continued.
