A few years ago, Ao Tian had already considered picking herbs and refining pills.
But back then, he didn't have much need for pills, so he hadn't touched the spirit herbs inside the Binghuo Liangyi Yan.
Binghuo Liangyi Yan had an otherworldly effect on plant growth. Plants inside it could grow at least ten times faster, and naturally, the older a spirit herb was, the better.
Now that the herbs in the Binghuo Liangyi Yan were about to fall into Tang San's hands, Ao Tian decided he couldn't wait any longer.
Perfect timing to use those top-grade herbs to refine medicine for Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts.
As for Zhu Zhuqing, even a bit of leftover pill residue could raise her several levels.
Of course, Ao Tian's women also needed a boost in strength.
Tang San used those herbs by eating them directly. Ao Tian would never waste them like that — he had to fire up the furnace and refine pills, fully maximizing the value of the herbs.
After lunch, Ao Tian continued spending time with the girls.
Qian Renxue wasn't in a hurry to return, staying with Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing on the training grounds to hone their combat skills.
Qian Renxue fought one against three with ease.
She was already at the late Soul Emperor stage, and it wouldn't be long before she broke through to Soul Sage. Handling three little girls was naturally effortless.
She didn't even need to use her Martial Soul — she could easily deflect Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's attacks.
Seeing this result, Xiao Wu accepted it naturally.
But Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were deeply shaken.
Sister Xue'er looked only around twenty… how could she be this strong?
After half an hour of fighting, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu finally gave up attacking.
Their soul power was completely drained.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were drenched in sweat and exhausted, while Qian Renxue only had a light sheen on her forehead.
Previously, when Xiao Wu mentioned that Qian Renxue was also Ao Tian's woman, Zhu Zhuqing had felt a vague resistance toward Qian Renxue.
She didn't want to feel that way, but she couldn't control it.
However, after this fight, that resistance slowly faded.
" Sister Xue'er, what level is your soul power now?" Zhu Zhuqing asked curiously.
Qian Renxue smiled. "I'm at sixty-seven."
"Heavens, Sister Xue'er, you're only in your early twenties, right? How did you reach Soul Emperor already?" Ning Rongrong exclaimed.
Qian Renxue nodded with a smile. "I'm twenty-two this year."
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong's lovely lips opened so wide that one could fit a huge banana inside — utterly stunned.
A twenty-two-year-old Soul Emperor, and even a sixty-seventh-level one. What kind of concept was that? Probably the strongest genius in history!
Previously, they'd heard Flender brag that Qin Ming, at thirty-two years old and level sixty-two, was the second fastest to become a Soul Emperor in history.
But compared to Qian Renxue, Qin Ming was laughably weak. The age difference was ten years, yet Qian Renxue was five levels higher.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong felt that although Ao Tian, Xiao Wu, and Gu Yuena had extremely high talent, even they likely couldn't reach Soul Emperor at twenty-two.
Which was why they were so shocked.
Qian Renxue's innate soul power had been level twenty, and her cultivation speed was far beyond that of normal people. Combined with the custom cultivation method Ao Tian had created for her — one specialized in flames and holy power — her speed was simply soaring thousands of miles in a day compared to ordinary cultivators.
"Sister Xue'er, can I see your Martial Soul?" Ning Rongrong asked hopefully.
Zhu Zhuqing also showed an eager expression. Qian Renxue was already becoming her idol.
She guessed that Qian Renxue must also have one of those mysterious cultivation methods from Ao Tian, which explained her terrifying speed.
This made her look forward even more — could she also reach this height by twenty-two?
Reaching Soul Emperor at twenty-two meant she might become a Soul Douluo before thirty. As long as she became a Soul Douluo, she would have the power to protect herself — no longer needing to fear the Star Luo royal family or the Zhu family.
As far as she knew, neither family had a Titled Douluo.
Qian Renxue nodded and released her Martial Soul.
But she secretly used her disguise skill to alter its appearance.
Six soul rings appeared around her — two yellow, two purple, two black — and a pair of fiery red wings extended from her back, exuding scorching heat.
"This is my Martial Soul — Fire Phoenix," Qian Renxue said.
Her Angel Martial Soul possessed flame abilities, so disguising it as a phoenix was effortless.
After speaking, she withdrew her Martial Soul.
After seeing it, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing admired her even more. A Phoenix Martial Soul — a top-tier offensive Martial Soul.
"Sister Xue'er, you'll definitely become a legendary level ninety-nine Titled Douluo one day — the strongest among humans," Ning Rongrong said.
Zhu Zhuqing nodded in agreement.
Gu Yuena and Ao Tian stood at the edge of the training ground, smiling as they watched.
The day passed quickly. After dinner, only Ao Tian, Gu Yuena, and Qian Renxue remained in Ao Tian's room.
Qian Renxue said, "Tian-ge, take me back."
"Alright," Ao Tian replied.
Gu Yuena teased, "Don't come back tonight. Stay with Xue'er."
"How can that be?" Qian Renxue panicked. "Tian-ge was already with me last night. I can't monopolize him. Sister Na'er, it's your turn."
Ao Tian was speechless. In his wives' eyes, he seemed to have become some kind of shared resource they politely passed around.
Gu Yuena laughed. "I've been with him every day these months, doing that every day. You just stay with him. Elder sister won't get jealous."
"And besides, you just tasted that feeling. You must still be looking forward to it, right?"
Qian Renxue's face reddened instantly.
Gu Yuena was right — she really was looking forward to it.
Being one with the man she loved brought a soul-deep satisfaction she found addictive.
Suddenly, Gu Yuena's eyes lit up. "Since you want him to stay with me too… why don't the three of us go together tonight…"
"Sister Na'er! What are you saying?" Qian Renxue blushed furiously. Her skin wasn't as thick as Gu Yuena's — she felt utterly overwhelmed.
To her, three people together was unimaginable.
Seeing his two stunning wives, Ao Tian was sorely tempted by Gu Yuena's suggestion.
But noticing that Qian Renxue was uncomfortable, he said, "Stop teasing Xue'er. I'll take her back first."
Ao Tian understood — sharing a bed like that required time. When Qian Renxue and Gu Yuena grew closer emotionally, everything would naturally fall into place.
You couldn't eat hot tofu by being impatient — he understood that well.
His multifunctional bed artifact was already complete. It would definitely be useful someday.
Gu Yuena waved her hand. "Go on. Spend more time with Xue'er — and hurry up and give me a dragon baby."
Qian Renxue's blush deepened; she didn't dare look up.
Ao Tian laughed heartily, wrapped an arm around Qian Renxue, and brought her back to the palace.
When they arrived in her room, Qian Renxue's face was still rosy. "Tian-ge, I'm going to take a bath."
"Mhm. Make sure you wash thoroughly," Ao Tian teased.
"Yes… I will." Qian Renxue left for the bath, full of anticipation.
Ao Tian sat down and checked on Tang San's situation again.
Throughout the day, he had occasionally peeked at what was happening on Shrek's side.
The Shrek group had entered Lanba Academy and then met Dean Liu Erlong. The moment Master saw her, he tried to run, but a prepared Flender caught him.
Forced by Flender, Master tearfully reunited with Liu Erlong.
Liu Erlong later announced that Lanba Academy would be renamed Shrek Academy as a gift to the Master.
Those were the events of the day.
At this moment, Master was in the forest, sorrowfully telling Tang San about his past with Liu Erlong. Tang San was comforting him, hoping the Master would let go of his emotional knot.
Tang San felt truly heartbroken seeing how pitiful his teacher looked.
Soon after, Liu Erlong arrived.
Seeing her, Tang San quietly slipped deeper into the forest to give the two some space.
However, Dugu Bo had long been spying in the shadows. Taking advantage of the moment, he silently captured Tang San.
Watching this, Ao Tian smiled and muttered, "So it's already reached this point? Should I head to the Binghuo Liangyi Yan now and pick those spirit herbs early?"
He considered it for a moment, then listened to the sound of splashing water from Qian Renxue's bath.
"Forget it. Accompanying Xue'er is more important. Can't let her down."
"As long as I go before Tang San starts picking, it won't be too late. Though picking herbs right in front of him… that kid will probably lose his mind…"
