Chapter 1010 The Late Stage of the Grand Completion Realm
The three of them lay on the same bed and took off their coats. The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.
Unlike Niu Cuihua, He Ziwei had not slept with Qin Haodong before.
Thus, she felt very nervous at this moment. Her cheeks burned and her eyes were closed. She didn’t dare to look at Qin Haodong at all.
Suddenly, she felt a big hand reaching out and playing with her.
This made her blush and her heart beat faster. She whispered in Qin Haodong’s ear, “Hubby, don’t…”
Qin Haodong was thinking about the Dragon Spiritual Spring and did not notice the change in He Ziwei at all. After hearing her words, he asked in surprise, “What did you say?”
“Huh?”
He Ziwei opened her eyes and found that the big hand that had been touching her was not Qin Haodong’s, but Niu Cuihua’s.
She finally understood what was going on and said shyly, “Sister Cuihua, you’re bullying me again!”
Niu Cuihua giggled and said, “Sister Ziwei, you are too biased. You allow Haodong to touch you but don’t let me touch you. You even said that I bullied you.”
The two girls were talking and laughing. Qin Haodong suddenly felt that something was amiss and gestured to them to be silent. Then, the three of them closed their eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Li Guangyao brought his men to the courier station. After entering the door, Li Zhen first called the supervisor over.
He had taken some precautions to observe Qin Haodong. As soon as he arrived, he secretly told the supervisor to pay attention to the movements of these three people.
“How is it? Were there any movements? Did anyone go out during this period of time?”
The supervisor saw that the king had personally come and knew that something big must have happened. He quickly said, “Your Majesty, Your Highness, I have sent people to spy outside their room. No one has gone out.”
Cao Yuhuan said, “Are you sure? The three people inside are all masters. You won’t even notice if they sneak out.”
The supervisor quickly said, “Your Majesty, I was also afraid something like this might happen. Therefore, I sent someone to check it secretly every 15 minutes. All of them were in the room and have fallen asleep. No one has gone out.”
Li Guangyao frowned. In this way, this matter had nothing to do with Tang Long. Then, who did it?
For safety’s sake, Li Zhen said, “Father, seeing is believing. Let’s go in and have a look.”
Li Guangyao nodded. Since he was here, he had to go in and find out the truth.
They came to Qin Haodong’s door. Li Zhen raised his hand and knocked on the door. “Dr. Tang, are you asleep? I have something urgent to talk to you about.”
Seeing that the people of the Dragon Kingdom were finally here, Qin Haodong got up from the bed, opened the door, and said sleepily, “Your Highness, what’s the matter? It’s so late.”
Li Zhen said, “Dr. Tang, here is the thing. We were preparing to go to bed, but my sister suddenly got a severe stomachache. I’m afraid that this condition could be due to the previous injury she sustained. I want to ask you to treat her.
“Also, this is my father and mother.”
Qin Haodong had already noticed Li Guangyao who was at the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm. However, when he heard Li Zhen’s words, he still pretended to look shocked. He quickly stepped forward, bowed and said, “I’m Tang Long, greeting Your Majesties.”
Li Guangyao nodded and came into the room with his men.
Qin Haodong felt Li Mengyao’s pulse again. Then, he said, “Her Highness is very healthy. There is nothing wrong with her. Maybe she has been under some stress these days. She will be fine after resting for a while.”
“Oh! Since she is fine, I’m relieved,” Li Guangyao said. “Dr. Tang is really young and promising. You saved Zhen’er and Mengyao. I’m here to thank you.”
Qin Haodong said, “It’s my honor to help Your Highnesses.”
Li Guangyao said, “Dr. Tang, our Dragon Kingdom is short of young talents like you. I wonder if you would like to stay here and work for us.”
Qin Haodong quickly said, “Your Majesty, if you don’t mind that I am just an ordinary person, I would love to.”
“Then it’s settled. You can rest in Dragon City for a few days, and I’ll come to look for you later,” Li Guangyao said and left with his men.
Qin Haodong, Niu Cuihua, and He Ziwei went out of the door to see them off.
Seeing that they had gone far, Qin Haodong and the other two returned to the room.
He Ziwei asked, “Haodong, will they believe us?”
Niu Cuihua said, “Since they didn’t take any action on the spot, they should believe us.”
“Let’s hear what they will say first,” Qin Haodong said and set up a restriction in the room.
He took out his laptop and opened it to watch the video that was transmitted by the miniature camera on Li Mengyao’s body.
Li Guangyao and the others left the courier station and went straight back to the palace. After sitting down again, Li Mengyao said, “Father, do you think Brother Tang is no longer a suspect?”
“That’s hard to say,” Li Guangyao said. “I just observed Tang Long carefully. He doesn’t have the aura of the Dragon Spiritual Spring on him.
“To be able to steal so much spiritual water, he must have some unknown divine weapon on him. Likewise, I didn’t sense the aura of that divine weapon.
“In addition, the supervisor of the courier station reported that they had never left, which greatly reduced the suspicion.
“But what your mother said makes sense. The incident of the Dragon Spiritual Spring happened only after they came to Dragon City, and two of the three people have reached the stage of the Grand Completion Realm. I don’t know if it is purely a coincidence.”
Cao Yuhuan said, “What I said is just a guess. That may not be true.”
Li Guangyao said, “I am still suspicious of the three people. However, I just noticed Tang Long’s eyes. They were very calm. If he really stole the spiritual water, there should be some panic in his eyes.”
Hearing their conversation, Qin Haodong couldn’t help laughing in his heart. After all, he was the Emperor Green Wood who had lived for more than 500 years. How could he give himself away because of such a trivial matter?
Li Guangyao said again, “What’s more, I just tested him and asked him if he was willing to stay in Dragon City.
“If he really stole the spiritual water, he would have wanted to leave immediately. But he readily agreed to stay on. From this point of view, he should not be the thief.”
A wisp of happiness appeared on Li Mengyao’s face. “Father, you mean that Brother Tang can be trusted by us, right?”
“At present, it can only be said that he is off the prime suspect list for now,” Li Guangyao said. “This matter still needs to be investigated thoroughly. After all, the background of Tang Long is somewhat unknown.
“If he is our enemy, we will be in great danger. That is because the cultivation of his side is very high. We must find out the truth. Otherwise, he will be a disaster for our Dragon Kingdom.”
For some unknown reason, Cao Yuhuan, who was talking confidently at the Dragon Spiritual Spring, didn’t say anything when Li Guangyao and his children were talking.
Qin Haodong got the gist of what they were thinking and turned off the laptop directly. Since he was sure that the Dragon Royal Family would not attack him, what he needed to do next was to seize the time to improve his cultivation.
He said to Niu Cuihua and He Ziwei, “Let’s enter the Seven Storeys Pagoda together to cultivate.”
Niu Cuihua shook her head. “My cultivation has improved too quickly lately. My foundation may be unstable if I just focus on improving. You and Sister Ziwei should go in and cultivate. I’ll stay here and keep watch. Who knows when the people of the Dragon Royal Family will come again.”
He Ziwei said, “Me too. I improved two levels recently. No matter what, I need to stabilize the cultivation first.”
Qin Haodong was very clear about the thoughts of these two women. He knew that they didn’t want to compete with him for Spiritual Qi, so they came up with this excuse.
He didn’t say anything. As long as his cultivation improved, he could refine high-level pills that would similarly be able to help them improve their cultivation.
He took out two communication talismans and gave one each to Niu Cuihua and He Ziwei.
“I am going to cultivate inside the Seven Storeys Pagoda. If anything happens, just crush the communication talismans. I will receive the message instantly.”
Niu Cuihua nodded and said, “Go ahead. Sister Ziwei and I will take care of everything.”
Qin Haodong kissed each of them on the cheek, and then flashed into the Seven Storeys Pagoda.
He had just got a large amount of spiritual water from the Dragon Spiritual Spring. At this moment, the first three floors of the pagoda were already filled with spiritual water.
However, the Seven Storeys Pagoda was indeed good. No spiritual water or Spiritual Qi had leaked out.
He directly entered the spiritual water and began to cultivate.
With the operation of the Green Wood Genuine Qi, the Spiritual Qi converted by the spiritual water was continuously absorbed into his body. The spiritual water in the pagoda decreased rapidly. The Genuine Qi in his body was getting stronger and stronger.
As time ticked by, there was a crisp sound in his mind. He broke through the bottleneck of the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm.
Without any pause, he continued to break through. After an unknown period of time, when he was approaching the edge of the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm, he felt there was no more Spiritual Qi left.
At such a critical moment, the Spiritual Qi in the pagoda had been used up by him.
Qin Haodong opened his eyes and looked around. He saw that all the spiritual water in the pagoda had been absorbed by him. There was not even a single drop left.
“Oh, no. I can’t let my efforts go to waste like this.”
Suddenly, an idea occurred to him. He thought of the five low-level Immortal Crystals that Li Zhen had given him. Then, he quickly took them out, held them in his palm, and continued to break through to the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm.
About an hour later, the five low-level Immortal Crystals in his hand dissolved into nothingness. At the same time, his momentum soared again. He broke through the threshold of the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm.
Qin Haodong breathed a sigh of relief. He finally succeeded.
Fortunately, he had obtained five low-level Immortal Crystals from Li Zhen. Otherwise, all his previous efforts would have been in vain.
As a reborn person, his cultivation could be improved without limit, but the condition was that he had to get a large number of resources. Even the Dragon Spiritual Spring that was the biggest spiritual spring in the Lingwu Continent was only enough for him to improve by two levels.
In any case, he finally made it. At this moment, he and Niu Cuihua were already at the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm. With the help of the Flame Gold-eyed Beasts and the Earth Bear in the Spirit Beast Pouch, the strength on his side was equal to that of the Dragon Kingdom.
It was a pity that the Three-legged Golden Toad was sleeping since it had eaten one Earthvein Spiritual Fruit. His strength would be even more powerful if the Three-legged Golden Toad woke up.
Qin Haodong reappeared in the courier station, overjoyed at his success.
At this moment, it was already the evening of the second day. He’d cultivated for over 10 hours this time.
Upon seeing him, Niu Cuihua and He Ziwei immediately surrounded him. “Hubby, how is it? Did you succeed?”
Qin Haodong nodded and said, “Yes.”
“This is great! Hubby, you are truly amazing!”
In her excitement, Niu Cuihua gave him a kiss. He Ziwei was much more bashful. Her cheeks were flushed. She gently kissed the other side of his cheek.
At this moment, footsteps came from the door. An old eunuch appeared in front of the door.
“Excuse me, who is Dr. Tang Long?”
Although the old eunuch’s voice was a little sharp and unpleasant, he was still very polite.
Qin Haodong said, “I am Tang Long. What’s the matter?”
The old eunuch said, “I am Zhao Pu, the chief steward of the palace. Her Majesty has invited you to the palace.”
