29: Chapter 29 What?! You're afraid of getting pregnant when things are so passionate?

Huo Wu is just that kind of person; to be able to like Tang San in such a short time and have the courage to express herself is truly extraordinary.

Moreover, the rare ten-thousand-year medicinal herb, the Fire Cloud Ganoderma, hasn't been consumed yet; after consuming it, if all goes well, it should increase her favorability even more.

"Huo Wu, I believe you know how to consume this medicinal herb," Su Ling said.

"I know, Brother Su, are you really giving this to me?"

Huo Wu confirmed with Su Ling again; after all, the value of this medicinal herb was too high.

If other fire-attribute Spirit Masters knew about it, they would absolutely fight tooth and nail for it.

"Just consume it here; one night should be enough for you to improve quite a bit," Su Ling said.

"Mm!" Huo Wu nodded.

Huo Wu took the ten-thousand-year Fire Cloud Ganoderma from Su Ling. She saw that the Fire Cloud Ganoderma was crystal clear throughout, as if fire-red blood was flowing inside it.

Huo Wu glanced at Su Ling again, her face slightly flushed.

[Ding... Huo Wu favorability +1, obtained Black Treasure Chest *1]

Another Black Treasure Chest had spawned. Good heavens, it really is true that you have to give to receive.

"Brother Su, I'll be troubling you."

After saying this, Huo Wu immediately consumed the ten-thousand-year Fire Cloud Ganoderma.

At her current level of thirty-nine, according to the trajectory in the novel, she would be level forty-three for the preliminaries a year later.

With this Fire Cloud Ganoderma, Huo Wu would likely perform better in the Advanced Spirit Master Tournament, and her Soul Power should be able to reach level forty-six or even higher.

"System, open the Black Treasure Chest I just obtained," Su Ling thought to himself.

[Ding... Opened the Black Treasure Chest, congratulations to the host for obtaining Teleportation Experience Card *2 (Teleportation distance: 1000 meters)]

Teleportation?

Good stuff!

It can save your life at a critical moment.

However, the distance is a bit short, why is it only one thousand meters?

Teleportation is Xiao Wu's third Spirit Ability, but the distance is only five meters, and Xiao Wu's one-hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone skill is only one hundred meters. Comparing it this way, one thousand meters is already quite good.

This time it didn't enhance combat power, but increasing escape ability is also fine; it's something Su Ling needs.

Looking at the System's Purple Treasure Chest, Su Ling held back.

There was no need to open it; it's better to save it to exchange for a Black Treasure Chest.

[Ding... Zhu Zhuqing favorability +2, obtained Purple Treasure Chest *1, Black Treasure Chest *1]

Huh, Zhuqing increased her favorability by another two points. Could it be that she had another Breakthrough?

At this moment, thousands of kilometers away, Zhuqing was sitting cross-legged on her bed. Just as Su Ling had thought, she had broken through, and her Soul Power reached level twenty-nine.

It hadn't even been a month since her last Breakthrough to level twenty-eight.

According to the regimen he set for Zhuqing for taking the primary spirit power pill, she should be on her fourth pill now.

"Brother Su, thank you," Zhuqing whispered, her heart deeply moved.

She came from a noble background and knew of some special methods on the continent to increase Soul Power, but they often involved draining one's own potential to do so.

But the Medicinal Pill Su Ling gave her had no side effects. If such a pill were placed in the Star Luo Empire, it could possibly sell for one hundred thousand gold coins each.

She was only on her fourth pill now; according to what Su Ling said, this pill could help her break through to level thirty sooner. He really hadn't lied to her.

...

Another Black Treasure Chest. Su Ling continued, "System, open the Black Treasure Chest."

With a Black Treasure Chest, Su Ling had absolutely no reason to hesitate.

[Ding... Opened the Black Treasure Chest, congratulations to the host for obtaining Intermediate Defensive Array *1]

Formation?

Su Ling immediately opened it to check its function.

[Intermediate Defensive Array: Maximum effective diameter of 100 meters, maximum height of 20 meters, cannot be broken by anyone below an ordinary Spirit Saint.]

"Not bad. This thing is very useful for resting in the wild and in the Spirit Beast Forest. It can also be used during secluded cultivation, or even when going alone to hunt Spirit Beasts to absorb their rings."

It was another useful item, which made Su Ling more confident about entering the Spirit Beast Forest to search for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

While thinking, Su Ling immediately set it up around himself.

After testing it out, the range of the Formation was adjustable. The minimum diameter could be adjusted to within five meters, with a height of three meters.

After understanding how to use it, Su Ling put it away.

It wasn't that he didn't want to use it, but that using this item required consuming a certain type of special energy crystal, and Su Ling didn't have any such energy crystals in his memories.

Once the energy was exhausted, the Formation would become useless.

Good steel must be used on the blade; there was no need for Su Ling to bring it out unless he found this type of energy crystal.

It just so happened that he was going to Heaven Dou City this time, so he could go to some shops and ask.

The night passed quietly, and the sky gradually brightened.

Huo Wu's body was surrounded by a faint flame. At level thirty-nine, it was impossible for Huo Wu to absorb the medicinal effects of the ten-thousand-year Fire Cloud Ganoderma all at once.

Therefore, much of the medicinal effect remained in her body.

She suddenly opened her eyes, and firelight emanated from them.

Closing her eyes again, Huo Wu adjusted herself. When she opened them, her eyes had returned to their normal color.

Feeling the fire-attribute Soul Power within her, it was different from before. If she were to use the spirit ring fusion ability again now, its power would increase by more than fifty percent.

Huo Wu thought to herself: The effect of this ten-thousand-year Fire Cloud Ganoderma that Su Ling gave her seems to be much better than the one recorded in the academy.

Anything from the System, how could it be bad?

Man-made harvesting would inevitably lead to some loss of medicinal effect, and differences in the growth environment would also have an impact. This ten-thousand-year Fire Cloud Ganoderma that Su Ling gave her was perfect.

She got up and looked at Su Ling, who had been guarding her from afar. Huo Wu felt warm in her heart.

[Ding... Huo Wu favorability +5, obtained Purple Treasure Chest *4, Black Treasure Chest *1]

Huo Wu's favorability soared directly to eighty-six points, but it surprisingly hadn't broken through to ninety.

Could it be that the higher it gets, the harder it is to increase favorability?

Moreover, he had a Charm bonus, especially after the favorability reached eighty, the Charm bonus had already reached 30%.

He glanced at Huo Wu's Bound Goddess panel.

[Bound Goddess: Huo Wu] [Goddess Comprehensive Value: 93] [Favorability: 86 (Already fell in love with you)] [Bonding Effect: The host can obtain 30% of the Bound Goddess's daily Cultivate effect, without reducing the Bound Goddess's cultivation speed.] [Bonding Skill 1: Charm (Passive skill, when Bound Goddess Huo Wu is within 100 meters of the host, Charm increases by 30%)] [Bonding Skill 2: Fire Attribute Bonus (When the host uses fire attributes alone, fire-attribute Soul Power power increases by 30%)]

Two skills, one passive and one that can assist himself.

"Huo Wu, come over and have some breakfast," Su Ling said lightly.

"Thank you, Brother Su."

Coming to Su Ling's side, Huo Wu continued, "Brother Su, actually, you can call me Xiao Wu."

"Xiao Wu?" Su Ling shook his head. Wouldn't that name conflict with someone else?

Seeing that Su Ling didn't respond, Huo Wu thought Su Ling was unwilling, and she immediately worried about Su Ling's attitude toward her.

With favorability reaching eighty-six, her heart began to worry about Su Ling's feelings.

"Let's call you Wu'er instead, it's more intimate, what do you think?" Su Ling took a step forward, arriving in front of Huo Wu.

At this moment, the distance between the two was less than five centimeters; they could both hear each other's breathing.

This was also because Huo Wu's favorability had reached eighty-six; if it were too low, doing this might cause the other party to be disgusted, but above eighty, there was no need to worry at all.

Rather than letting a girl hold the initiative, Su Ling would rather take the initiative into his own hands.

"I-it's okay, Brother Su." Huo Wu's face was flushed red, not because of her own fire attribute, but a physiological reaction.

She wanted to escape, but she found that her heart rate was accelerating, and she couldn't move her legs.

It was as if there was a version of herself beside her saying: Huo Wu, why are you shrinking back? Be bolder when you meet someone you like.

And another version of herself on the side saying: Huo Wu, you are too frivolous. You've only known him for two days and you're already this intimate with him; he will definitely look down on you.

The two versions of herself left her very conflicted; this was not her usual self at all.

And at this very moment, Su Ling reached out and hugged her.

Su Ling was testing to see what could be done with a favorability of eighty-six.

"Brother Su, we..."

"Wu'er, after eating my medicine, you are my person from now on, is that okay?" Su Ling said in Huo Wu's ear, smelling that faint fragrance; the feeling went without saying.

Perhaps this is what one should do most after coming to the Douluo World. Since he was already here, if he didn't find a few more goddesses for himself, what would be the point of coming to this famous love continent from his previous life?

Since he was here, should he become a monk? Does anyone still stick to monogamy?

Of course, one couldn't rule out that there were such people in this World, but Su Ling felt that most people would likely make the same choice as him.

"Brother Su, isn't it too fast for us to be together like this?" Huo Wu whispered, but she didn't push Su Ling away; she seemed to be enjoying everything.

"It's not fast. And we aren't truly together yet, after all, I have to send you back today, and I don't know how long we will be apart after today," Su Ling said.

"Oh!"

Huo Wu had a great figure and was dressed lightly; Su Ling felt very comfortable holding her.

Especially the soft feeling pressed against his chest, which made one unable to stop.

"Brother Su, we..." Huo Wu's eyes were a bit off.

She subconsciously looked down, and it was a bit terrifying.

"Sorry, I couldn't help myself."

After Su Ling finished speaking, he kissed her directly.

"Mmm..." It was unknown how much time had passed when the two separated.

The tent was right beside them, and Su Ling had originally wanted to take the next step.

However, Huo Wu refused, saying that they should wait until they were truly together, she didn't want a child, and she wanted to prepare with all her might for the Advanced Spirit Master Tournament.

Su Ling thought to himself that this favorability of eighty-six was still a bit lacking.

For some goddesses, it might be possible to develop further; for others, it might not.

Since Huo Wu had refused, Su Ling naturally wouldn't force her.

After breakfast, Su Ling slowly escorted Huo Wu to the Blazing Academy.

"Su Ling, you must come to find me in the future, don't forget me." Huo Wu looked at Su Ling, feeling very reluctant to part.

"Wu'er, rest assured, even if I forget everyone else, I won't forget you," Su Ling said.

"Mm!" Huo Wu nodded, and proactively kissed Su Ling on the face again, before leaving and entering the Blazing Academy.

But not long after entering the academy, Huo Wu thought about how they had walked back for dozens of kilometers during the day, and in another hour it would be dark again. It was really not right of her to just let Su Ling leave like that; they should have at least rested for a night.

When she returned to the academy gate, Su Ling was already gone.

"Brother Su, I have decided on you for the rest of my life! This time it's for the Advanced Spirit Master Tournament, but next time, I will definitely give myself to you," Huo Wu whispered.

After saying this, Huo Wu returned to the academy again. Her Soul Power had reached level forty, and she wanted to find her fourth spirit ring as soon as possible.

As for the current exchange tournament of the five great elemental academies, Huo Wu had lost interest. It seemed as if after having Su Ling, everyone else no longer deserved the word "Genius" and were not worth her anticipation.

Huo Wu only wanted to become stronger now; she didn't want to fall too far behind Su Ling in the future.
