Chapter 855 - Princess Garo (1/2)
The first one to arrive at the Tang Sect was Xi Youmi, leader of the Devil Gate.
“Hi, I didn’t expect to see you again so soon. What are you doing here? Did you miss me?”
After her identity was exposed, Xi Youmi no longer maintained her guise as a fashion designer. Instead, she started to show the bearing of the leader of the Devil Gate.
Xuanyuan Lige and Qin Zongheng also arrived after a while.
After they were introduced to each other, Xuanyuan Lige looked at Xi Youmi from head to toe. The Devil Gate had been fighting against Cihang Sword House for thousands of years. So it was strange that they could come together peacefully.
Qin Zongheng asked, “Haodong, why did you call us here?”
Qin Haodong told her what he had experienced in the West in the past few days. Then he made a conclusion, “The Alien Demons are very powerful now, so the top priority is to improve our cultivation.”
“I’ve just made a batch of Cultivation Pills, which are very useful for the Saints.”
Xi Youmi asked, “The pill sounds good. But will it work for us? If it takes too long to take effect, I’m afraid that we don’t have so much time.”
Qin Haodong explained, “As its name implies, the Cultivation Pill could help you reach the next stage and you may even break through to the Divine Realm if you’re lucky.”
Xi Youmi asked, “Really? That’s great! Give me one.”
Qin Haodong said, “It would be quite impressive if we really reach the Divine Realm, so we’d better go outside and find another place to practice.”
The three nodded and followed Qin Haodong to Shenbao Mountain on the outskirts of the capital.
He was very familiar with this place. They came to the top of the mountain and found a suitable place to sit down. Then Qin Haodong gave them three Cultivation Pills each.
One pill was enough to help them reach the late stage of the Saint Realm, but he wanted to go further and helped them break through to the Divine Realm, so Qin Haodong gave them three pills each.
After setting up a formation and a barrier around them, Qin Haodong asked the three to take pills to help them to improve, while he kept guard.
Accordingly, they took one pill first and then reached the late stage of the Saint Realm after an hour. The pill was really amazing.
Then, the three took the other two pills and began to focus on breaking through to the Divine Realm.
Among the three of them, Qin Zongheng was a rare martial arts genius from the Qin family. He had reached the middle stage of the Saint Realm many years ago, so he had the strongest foundation.
Two hours later, he was the first to complete the breakthrough. The surrounding Qi of Heaven and Earth gathered around Shenbao Mountain and dark clouds massed on the horizon. Although it was already early winter, they could hear the faint rumbling of thunder.
Qin Zongheng’s momentum surged and he finally reached the Divine Realm.
Following close behind, Xi Youmi and Xuanyuan Lige also reached the Divine Realm almost at the same time.
Qin Haodong was quite surprised. He thought it would be lucky if one or two of them could make a breakthrough. Unexpectedly, the three of them reached the Divine Realm together with their solid foundation.
Xi Youmi stood up and said with a charming smile, “Haodong, your pills are excellent. Thank you so much. We’re at your disposal now.”
Then she came closer to Qin Haodong, winked at him, and said, “Do you have any more of those pills? Could you please give some to our Devil Gate? You should be fair to all of us.”
Qin Haodong said, “There are five Cultivation Pills here. Give them to the masters who have reached the Sage Realm. The pills are limited, so please don’t waste them.”
A flicker of joy crossed Xi Youmi’s face. “Thank you very much!”
Then she took the pills, said goodbye to Qin Haodong, and rose into the air.
Qin Haodong also gave Xuanyuan Lige some pills and asked her to distribute these pills to those at Cihang Sword House.
Qin Haodong felt much more relieved after these three reached the Divine Realm. That, plus Kathryn, Lev, and Khorkina, he now had six Divine Realm masters at his command. Even if the Alien Demon Emperor appeared, they still had a good chance of winning!
The next few days were peaceful. Everyone was seizing the time to improve their strength. Qin Haodong stayed in the Tang Sect to help them improve.
A week passed. This morning, Qin Haodong woke up to find the first snowfall of early winter. The whole capital turned white.
After breakfast, his phone rang. Qin Haodong picked it up and found that it was Hua Mingrui, the Tea Fairy.
He answered and Hua Mingrui said pitifully, “Haodong, I heard that you have returned to the capital.”
Feeling the sadness in her voice, Qin Haodong was quite flustered. He didn’t know how to handle this girl who seemed to have fallen in love with him.
He said, “Yes, I came back a week ago.”
Hua Mingrui said, “You’ve been back for so long, but why didn’t you come to see me. Do you still remember me?”
Qin Haodong said awkwardly, “No, I’ve been busy recently.”
Hua Mingrui sighed faintly and said, “This is the first snowfall in early winter. Do you want to drink tea and admire plum blossoms with me?”
Qin Haodong hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he couldn’t bear to refuse her offer. He said, “Okay, where do we meet?”
Hua Mingrui said, “I’ll make tea and wait for you in the Plum Garden in the east.”
Qin Haodong arrived at the Plum Garden in the east of the city half an hour later.
