—------------------—
After a while, the howling sounds disappeared, and smiles appeared on the faces of Xu Tianxi and Meng Hongchen. Only Xiao Hongchen had a bruised face. The laboratory was filled with a cheerful atmosphere again.
"Let me see what you wrote to prove: Because I, Xiao Hongchen, have never been inferior to others in my life, and Xu Tianxi is a human, so I, Xiao Hongchen, should be no weaker than Xu Tianxi... Tsk tsk tsk, Lao Xiao, you have quite a few ideas, don't you?"
Xu Tianxi couldn't help laughing when he saw the first sentence, and continued reading while laughing:
"Also, Xu Tianxi is a god, and I, Xiao Hongchen, am not a god, so I am temporarily behind him. Yo, this statement is a bit self-aware."
Xiao Hongchen covered his face and said, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding..."
"The truth is, Xu Tianxi and I both have divine beast spirits. My divine beast spirit isn't as strong as Xu Tianxi's, and I have one less spirit than him. So, when my son awakens a more powerful divine beast spirit and possesses twin spirits, he might be able to defeat Xu Tianxi's son. Wow, that's quite insightful."
Xu Tianxi almost laughed out loud and consoled him, "Don't worry, Xiao Wutian will probably inherit his mother's martial spirit. By then, his mother will have become a god, and her angel martial spirit is terrifyingly powerful. She probably won't let my martial spirit inherit it."
Xiao Hongchen's eyes lit up.
"But Xiao Wutian is about to awaken his martial spirit, and you don't even have a child. Even if you give birth now, the child will be more than six years younger than Xiao Wutian. It will be difficult to make up for this age gap in your lifetime."
Xu Tianxi curled his lips and whispered a cold reality.
Xiao Hongchen's eyes suddenly dimmed.
Damn Old Xu, can't you give me some hope?
"He laughed at Hongchen, a love idiot, and wondered what he knew about having a child. You see, everything he wrote was a research report. In his diary, he even wrote that he felt Xiaoxiao looked at him very eagerly. He didn't want to cooperate with her, but he had to persevere for the sake of future results."
Meng Hongchen flipped through Xiao Hongchen's diary with contempt in his eyes, "Brother, you big idiot, we really overestimated you."
Xiao Hongchen's old face flushed: "You, you guys, don't look at my things randomly, it's not good, don't..."
"The atmosphere is already so exciting. Wouldn't it be really unfair to you if I didn't watch it?"
Xu Tianxi had an attitude of "Xiao Hongchen, the more you call me, the more excited I am". He flashed over and put his forehead against Meng Hongchen's, flipping through Xiao Hongchen's diary together.
The more he watched, the funnier it became. In the end, Xu Tianxi couldn't even help laughing.
"Okay, okay, Xiao Xiao asked you out for dinner, and you actually mistakenly thought she had a conspiracy to steal your experimental results. You keep laughing, and you never think about whether Xiao Xiao knows how to use soul guides?"
Meng Hongchen had the urge to cover his face and shook his head at Xiao Hongchen: "You old fool, you are so stupid. A girl asked you out, but you, an old antique, were so focused on the experiment."
Xiao Hongchen's expression was as resolute as a golden Buddha, his eyes devoid of worldly desires. "Xu Sanshi's past experience is a lesson for me. If he hadn't been so obsessed with beauty and children, he wouldn't have fallen so far behind me in cultivation."
"I'm already at the pinnacle of Extreme Douluo. The path to godhood is right before my eyes. Only the last two stages of the Divine Test remain. For a genius like me, cultivation is our top priority. How can we afford to dwell on trivial matters? We can discuss this after we achieve godhood."
"Oh." Xu Tianxi said calmly, "Just a reminder, it's not easy to have children after becoming a god. You are the only child of the Hongchen family, and you have the responsibility to continue the Hongchen family's descendants. Otherwise, your grandfather will die with regrets."
Xiao Hongchen's face froze. He pointed at Xu Tianxi and asked, "Don't we still have you and Meng? Why don't you and Meng Nu try to have more children and give one of them the surname Hongchen? Grandpa will definitely be very happy."
"Xiao Hongchen, you want to die? I'm going to tear your mouth apart!"
Hearing these words, Meng Hongchen was like a cat with its fur standing on end. He was so angry that he rushed over and tore Xiao Hongchen's face apart. He punched Xiao Hongchen so hard that he screamed in pain.
"Oh, sister, hit me gently, please don't hit me anymore. I was wrong. Is that not okay? Oh, why is my life so miserable?"
"You're wrong, right? Then who should be responsible for continuing the Hongchen family's offspring?" Meng Hongchen said viciously.
"I, I, I, of course it's me, Xiao Hongchen, the eldest son and grandson. How could I be dreaming about you?" Xiao Hongchen covered his head and ran away, almost hiding under the desk.
"That's more like it." Meng Hongchen clapped his hands, finished his work, and gracefully put his hands away. He smiled at Xu Tianxi: "Is the recording done?"
"Don't worry, I have them all." Xu Tianxi shook the recording soul guide, indicating that he had recorded all of Xiao Hongchen's words.
"Old Xiao, don't feel so wronged. Think about it this way. If you become a god without any offspring, then what's the point of competing with my son for the title of the new generation's number one prodigy? The later you wait to get married, the slimmer your chances of success."
Xu Tianxi patiently persuaded Xiao Hongchen and stuffed a divine-grade Xuanwu pill that he had personally refined into his own body, which instantly cured all of Xiao Hongchen's injuries.
Although they beat them, they didn't use any harsh methods. Giving them a lesson was enough.
Hearing this, Xiao Hongchen flipped out from underneath with a somersault, his face full of excitement, like a warrior about to enter the battlefield:
"That makes sense! I've lived my entire life in the mortal world, and I'm not inferior to anyone. What's the big deal about getting married? It's nothing. Just wait and see what I'm doing!"
He straightened his back, puffed out his chest, and walked out as if he had finally come to his senses. He quickly kicked open the door connecting the two laboratories. With a solemn expression, he extended a hand, made what he thought was a very polite gesture, and smiled at the stunned Xiao Xiao.
"Beauty, are you in a relationship?"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Xu Tianxi and Meng Hongchen felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
"Has he put all his intelligence into the soul guide? Confessing right away?"
The corner of Xu Tianxi's mouth twitched. Xiao Hongchen really didn't understand that confession was never the clarion call for a charge, but the flag of the victor.
"From now on, I have to consider whether to avoid suspicion. This old antique really knows nothing..."
Meng Hongchen frowned and looked like he didn't know this embarrassing guy.
However, what the two did not expect was that after Xiaoxiao blushed, lowered her head, and remained silent at the beginning, she finally nodded slightly and said "hmm" in a weak voice.
Xiao Hongchen's tough confession was successful!
"Ahaha, beautiful lady, you really have good taste. Don't worry, everyone in and outside Mingde Hall knows my reputation as Xiao Hongchen. Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back. I will definitely fulfill all my responsibilities. I will go back and learn from that guy Xu Sanshi..."
Xiao Hongchen was in high spirits, with a smile on his face. It turned out that confessing one's feelings was not that difficult. When Xiao Hongchen took action, everything was easy for him except beating Xu Tianxi.
Xiaoxiao's cheeks turned even redder, and she twisted her fingers as if she was thinking deeply about something.
"For this to work, how much must Xiaoxiao like this idiot Laoxiao?" Xu Tianxi said he couldn't understand.
"I don't really understand it either, but for a girl, when she really meets someone she likes, being reserved isn't that important..."
Meng Hongchen lay on the sofa with his face in his hands, expressing his guess.
Xu Tianxi was thoughtful after hearing this.
It seems that no matter what, being a bootlicker has no future. If you really meet someone you like, even if it is a master in the abstract world like Xiao Hongchen, you can win by just confessing your feelings.
"Although it was a bit unexpected, they were successful. In a year or so, I will issue an edict to them to get married." Xu Tianxi said.
Meng Hongchen tilted his head and said sincerely, "I think you'd better go faster."
"Why?"
"Given my brother's personality, if Xiaoxiao stays with him for too long, she might want to kick him out."
Meng Hongchen covered her face. She had finally found someone who was willing to be her sister-in-law, and her sister-in-law was also anxious.
"...That makes sense. Let's hurry up and release He Caitou. I'll ask my second brother Sanshi to go there." Xu Tianxi agreed with him.
…
So, in the afternoon two and a half months later, the college cell that had been sealed for many years welcomed a guest. He Caitou, who was flipping through some old books to pass the time, suddenly looked up and his pupils shrank.
"You...you are Xu Sanshi? Why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to let you out. Congratulations! Because the new emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire has ascended the throne and issued a general amnesty, you are now free."
The tall and strong Xu Sanshi came closer and took off the shackles that He Caitou had worn for more than ten years. He sighed and said:
"Although you've been wasting more than ten years, the current training environment is much better than before. As long as you work hard, you still have hope of becoming a Titled Douluo. Come on."
"Thank you, thank you. By the way, who is the new emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire? It's not Xu Tianran, right?" He Caitou asked.
"Of course not. You saw it back then, but you probably don't remember it now."
Xu Sanshi chuckled, patted He Caitou on the shoulder, and said, "Alright, let's stop talking about those unhappy things and go out for a walk. Although my experience at Shrek was not pleasant, we are all classmates after all."
"I have good news for you. Remember Xiaoxiao? She's getting engaged soon, and she wants to invite all of us old classmates to get together."
"Xiao Xiao? Is that the Xiao Xiao who was forcibly taken away that year?"
He Caitou's eyes were filled with distant memories, and he gradually remembered a petite figure, but the face was blurry because too much time had passed.
He had vaguely liked her back then, right? He wanted to protect her, but he couldn't. Apart from killing the two geniuses of the Sun-Moon Empire, he couldn't do anything else.
Now, even she is going to get married?
Thinking of this, He Caitou felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart. He forced a smile and asked, "Who is she engaged to? Is it an old classmate of Shrek's?"
"How could that be? Shrek was wiped out a long time ago. How could he be an old classmate? I've been married for a long time."
Xu Sanshi waved his hand and said as he walked, "He was the second genius of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy back then, Xiao Hongchen. You might still have some impression of him."
"It's him? How could it be him?"
He Caitou was stunned. Laughing at Hongchen? Xiaoxiao? This, this, this, it hurts. It hurts so much...
"Why can't it be him? Even though Xiao Hongchen is a bit arrogant, he's still a nice guy."
For many years, Xu Sanshi has been a close friend of Xiao Hongchen. When he heard that He Caitou had some disagreements, he immediately stood up for his friend.
"Well, let's not talk about anything else. Let's just look forward to the future, okay?" Xu Sanshi pointed at the sun above his head, his eyes full of hope.
"Look forward, yes, we should look forward..." He Caitou smiled bitterly, looked up at the sky, and murmured:
"But... do I still have a future? My father and the others are gone, Shrek... is gone too... What's the point of me living..."
The next moment, he didn't know where he got the strength from, he jumped up and crashed into the white jade pillar beside him.
Xu Sanshi's eyes twitched. "No, you don't have to commit suicide if you don't want to go to the wedding. What are you doing?"
Xu Sanshi tried to stop He Caitou from ramming into the pillar, but he kept shaking his head. "What's going on? No one told me before you came here. Are you mentally ill?"
