[Child Without Parents: Then what do you think my first step should be?]
[Li Yuan: It's simple. Start with the two generals by your mother's side. Gui Mei and Yue Guan are the direct subordinates of your dead scumbag father. You can try to contact them and see if you can win them over.]
[Child Without Parents:?? Where are your manners? What did my father ever do to you?]
[Li Yuan: He didn't do anything to me, but he put Bibi Dong in a Secret Room! I haven't even tasted a brand-new, first-hand Bibi Dong myself, so shouldn't I curse him?]
[Li Yuan: A perfectly good first-hand Bibi Dong became ninety percent new, with minor flaws... You tell me, shouldn't I curse him?]
"You bastard!!! Li Yuan, screw you!"
Qian Renxue was so angry she smashed her Brick on the ground, her silver teeth clenched tight.
This Li Yuan really had no good intentions!
On the surface, he said he was helping her strategize, but in his heart, he was still thinking about her mother, Bibi Dong!
Why was there always some bastard who wanted to be her father?
Was her mother really that desirable?!
Every single one of them was eyeing her!
"Hmph, Li Yuan, don't think that just because you're giving me advice, you can eye my mother. When I become a god in the future, I'll settle the score with you!"
"Don't you like Secret Rooms? When the time comes, I'll find ten beautiful dancers specifically for you to Secret Room you every day, and see if you still dare to covet my mom!"
Qian Renxue "cursed" him viciously for a while before she managed to suppress the agitation in her heart. After calming her emotions, she began to coolly consider the feasibility of Li Yuan's words.
Contact her father's direct subordinates, Yue Guan and Gui Mei?
But she had almost no interaction with these two; she hadn't proactively contacted them for over ten years. If she tried to contact them now... would it still work?
She feared that Gui Mei and Yue Guan had already been completely trained by Bibi Dong to be hers, heart and soul.
Gui Mei, Yue Guan: No, don't misunderstand! Even though we are in the camp of Bibi Dong, our hearts are with you! We were born as people of the Qian Family, and we will die as ghosts of the Qian Family!
"Forget it, I'll give it a try. Even if it doesn't succeed, there's nothing to lose."
Qian Renxue took a deep breath and made a decision.
She took out paper and pen and wrote a letter, preparing to have someone deliver it to Gui Mei and Yue Guan.
The content of the letter was also very simple.
To summarize: "I know you used to be my father's subordinates, even though you now serve the Eastern Association Army of the Great Spirit Hall."
"However, that doesn't change the fact that I need you. As long as you are willing to join me, there will be great benefits!"
After writing, Qian Renxue carefully sealed the letter and summoned She Long.
Qian Renxue handed the letter to him: "Deliver this letter personally to Gui Mei's hands, and make sure he opens and reads it himself."
She Long stepped forward and took the letter, originally thinking it was just an ordinary official letter.
But when he heard the words 'personally to Gui Mei's hands' and 'opens and reads it himself,' his heart skipped a beat.
The Young Lord's personal letter?
And it was written specifically for Gui Mei?
It's over! This is bad!
Am I going to lose my job?
Seeing his dejected look, Qian Renxue couldn't help but find it a bit funny. She then changed her tone and reassured him, "Uncle She, this is just an ordinary message. You don't need to overthink it."
She Long finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed to accept the order: "Yes, Young Lord! Your subordinate will see to it immediately!"
Watching She Long's departing back, Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed slightly as she calculated the next step of her plan.
"Gui Mei and Yue Guan... I hope you know what's good for you. If I can really win them over, I'll have a Foundation inside the Supreme Pontiff Palace..."
"Mom, I'm sorry. For the sake of Spirit Hall, I have no choice!"
...Meanwhile.
Nuoding Academy.
Tang San, who had been unconscious for a full day, finally woke up groggily. He felt a splitting headache, and his entire body felt like it was falling apart.
Especially the 'gate' on his buttocks, which sent waves of indescribable, sharp pain.
Yu Xiaogang, who had been waiting by his side, saw him wake up and immediately rushed to the bedside in excitement: "Little San, you're finally awake. You worried your teacher to death."
Tang San blinked weakly: "Teacher... how long was I unconscious?"
"You were unconscious for a whole day!"
Yu Xiaogang breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped away non-existent tears with his sleeve: "Thankfully the heavens have eyes, you've finally woken up..."
"A day? I actually lost to Li Yuan... Is Blue Silver Grass really a trash Spirit?"
Tang San stared at the ceiling and muttered to himself.
An unprecedented surge of self-doubt flooded his heart.
He clearly practiced hard every day, and his Spirit's development direction strictly followed his teacher's 'Ten Core Competencies' theory.
Why couldn't he even beat Li Yuan, whose spirit power was lower than his own?
He was even sent flying by a single punch, losing in such a humiliating manner?
Seeing Tang San's low Spirits and bruised confidence, Yu Xiaogang quickly consoled him: "Little San, don't be afraid. Your loss to Li Yuan is only temporary. He won't be arrogant for long."
"Under my theoretical development, as long as you Breakthrough to Spirit Elder and choose another Datura Snake for your third spirit ring, the same type of Spirit Ability will not only potentially strengthen your first Spirit Ability but also grant you an even stronger binding-type Spirit Ability. By then, Li Yuan won't be able to escape your control even if he had wings!"
Yu Xiaogang spoke with spit flying everywhere, trying to reignite Tang San's confidence.
Just as he wanted to continue painting a rosy picture, his nose suddenly twitched twice, and his expression changed slightly: "Um... Little San, do you smell something foul?"
Tang San's face instantly turned deathly pale. He had felt something was wrong just now, and at this moment, he clearly felt a wave of warmth gushing from his buttocks, accompanied by an uncontrollable urge to defecate... He hurriedly said, "Teacher, can you step out for a moment? I'm tired, I want to rest."
Yu Xiaogang didn't think much of it, assuming Tang San just wanted some peace and quiet. He quickly nodded: "Alright, alright, you rest well. Teacher will head out now. Call me if you need anything."
After Yu Xiaogang left.
Tang San hurriedly threw back the covers and pulled down his pants.
Looking down, it was indeed a foul-smelling patch of fecal yellow.
"Impossible! How could I lose control and poop in bed?"
Just as Tang San was in disbelief, his stomach churned again.
*Pfft... Pshhh!*
Tang San tried hard to contract his sphincter muscles to close the gate.
However, because that stick yesterday had been shoved in far too deep, it had severely damaged his anal sphincter muscles.
He couldn't control it at all.
He could only let the yellowish excrement spray out wildly.
At that very moment, the female physician who came to deliver medicine was about to enter to change Tang San's dressing. When she pushed open the door and saw this scene, her jaw nearly hit the floor.
"Ah! Pervert!"
The female physician screamed and ran away on the spot.
Yu Xiaogang, who was not far away, heard the commotion and rushed over. When he saw this scene, he was also so shocked he was almost speechless, his mind going blank.
"Little San..."
Yu Xiaogang's lips trembled, his face turned green, and his stomach churned so much he almost vomited on the spot.
Tang San was dying of shame and indignation, tears welling in his eyes. He lowered his head in humiliation: "Teacher, I really didn't mean to... I can't control it..."
Yu Xiaogang looked at the bed and floor covered in yellowish, foul-smelling waste, then looked at the shamed and desperate Tang San.
No!
This was Yu Xiaogang's only hope, the 'gold-lettered signboard' to prove his theory!
He couldn't let him fall here. He had to take this opportunity to completely win over Tang San's heart.
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang forced a "kind" smile that looked worse than crying. Enduring the nausea, he stepped forward, pulled the filthy Tang San into his arms, and said in a voice full of fatherly love:
"Little San, Teacher believes you! You definitely didn't mean to... do this in bed. Don't be afraid, Teacher is here!"
Tang San trembled and looked up in disbelief. Seeing Yu Xiaogang's sincere eyes, a warm current surged in his heart.
In his most wretched moment, there was actually someone willing to believe him... After all, at this moment, he was like someone with yellow mud in his pants; he couldn't clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Seeing that his 'bitter meat' tactic was working, Yu Xiaogang was secretly delighted and continued while the iron was hot.
He pulled a pack of tissues from his pocket and said softly: "Little San, come, Teacher will... wipe it for you."
Saying so, Yu Xiaogang held his breath and, with a trembling hand, used the tissues to wipe the remaining filth from Tang San's buttocks.
Tang San was moved beyond words, looking at Yu Xiaogang with teary eyes: "Teacher..."
Little did he know, the very moment he spoke, it was as if he had opened the floodgates.
Anyone who has had diarrhea knows that it comes in waves, without the slightest warning.
*Splurt!*
A burst of yellowish, foul-smelling waste instantly plastered Yu Xiaogang's face.
"Blegh—!"
Yu Xiaogang wanted to vomit it out, but seeing Tang San's dejected eyes, he steeled his heart and actually swallowed it on the spot: "Silly child... how could Teacher be disgusted by you?"
It was lucky that what Tang San passed was watery and didn't clog his throat!
Otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to keep up the act.
Seeing that his teacher could go to such lengths for him, Tang San was instantly moved to tears, sobbing: "Teacher, you are so good! A teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime. I will definitely Cultivate hard and Breakthrough to Spirit Elder as soon as possible to prove your theory is correct!"
Hearing this heartfelt vow from Tang San, Yu Xiaogang finally showed a gratified smile: "Good child! I knew I wasn't wrong about you!"
However, that smile, combined with his face covered in yellowish filth and the faint yellow residue visible between his teeth, was exceptionally nauseating.
But Yu Xiaogang felt it was all worth it.
After all, this was the second time Tang San had mentioned the phrase 'a teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime.'
It seemed Tang San truly regarded him as a father; he wouldn't have to worry about the rest of his life... At the thought of this, Yu Xiaogang's hands trembled with excitement: "Come, Little San, Teacher will wipe you clean!"
