  “If we farm the demi-world, we won’t be short of Liquid of Spiritual Condensation, and we can use that to increase the number of cultivators. All the families will think of a way to solve that,” Tang Hao said.

  The people from the cultivation families were all excited.

  That was a good thing!

  Their families had many people, but because of the lack of resources, only a few dozen people could cultivate. Now that they had sufficient resources, the entire family could cultivate.

  At about four o’clock in the morning, Tang Hao took a helicopter and rushed to the nearest air force base. He wanted to take a transport plane to the Capital first before transferring to Province Z.

  When he boarded the transport plane, he saw that there was a figure sitting inside. That was none other than Mu Xintong, dressed in a military uniform and looking valiant.

  Tang Hao was startled, and he stopped walking.

  Hearing the sound of footsteps, Mu Xintong turned around, revealing her beautiful face.

  “It’s you…” She muttered.

  “What a coincidence!” Tang Hao smiled. “You’re going back so early?”

  “Class,” she said.

  “Oh!”

  Tang Hao responded and was about to walk toward her.

  “Am I scary?” She said coldly.

  Tang Hao was surprised again. A long time later, he awkwardly walked toward her and sat down beside her.

  The two of them did not speak.

  The atmosphere in the cabin was stifling.

  After a while, the plane took off and headed straight for the Capital.

  On the way, the two of them remained silent.

  Tang Hao occasionally turned his head to look at her.

  From that angle, her side profile was flawless, and her beauty was breathtaking. Her jet-black hair fell on her shoulders and emitted a pleasing fragrance.

  Tang Hao took a sniff and blushed.

  That fragrance was somewhat familiar to him. It reminded him of what had happened that night.

  She glanced over, and her cold face blushed. She said in a low voice, “Pervert!”

  She did not sound angry but rather bashful.

  Tang Hao was immediately embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, “What do you mean?”

  “Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking?” She said.

  “Tell me what I’m thinking then! You’re the one who’s thinking. Otherwise, how would you know what I’m thinking?”

  “I…” She was suddenly at a loss for words. After hesitating for a moment, she glared at him.

  Then, the cabin fell silent again.

  Suddenly, the plane encountered some turbulence and shook violently.

  Instinctively, she groped around, looking for support, and instantly found Tang Hao’s hand.

  Her entire body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.

  She instantly removed her hand. After a while, it reached out again and tightly grabbed Tang Hao’s hand.

  Tang Hao was stunned and looked at her.

  She happened to look over as well, and her pretty face was slightly red. Then, with a stern face, she said coldly, “What are you doing?”

  “Nothing!”

  Tang Hao hurriedly shook his head and let her hold his hand.

  After a while, the plane finally calmed down.

  However, she did not let go.

  Tang Hao did not say anything. The two of them sat quietly while holding hands.

  “Hey, do you regret it?” Suddenly, she said.

  “Regret what?”

  “That day.”

  After being stunned for a while, Tang Hao said, “I’m not an animal!”

  “Really?” She said matter-of-factly.

  Tang Hao rolled his eyes.

  “Am I pretty?” After a while, she asked again.

  “You are!”

  “Oh! Then… let’s… dual-cultivate!” She stammered.

  “What?”

  Tang Hao was completely dumbfounded. He thought that he had heard wrong.

  “Cough Cough!”

  Tang Hao coughed violently, extremely embarrassed.

  ‘She must be joking, right?

  ‘Why would she shock me like that?’

  “I didn’t know that you’re a joker!” Tang Hao laughed awkwardly.

  She glared at him. “Do I look like I’m joking?”

  Tang Hao was instantly dumbfounded.

  The atmosphere became awkward.

  “Forget it if you don’t want to! Don’t tell me I have to beg you!” She said angrily. “I obtained a dual-cultivation technique through a fortuitous encounter, and I find you quite pleasing to the eye, so… that’s why I wanted to ask you.”

  She sounded softer and softer as she spoke, and her cold face blushed even more intensely.

  “My cultivation level… is too low. I want to become more powerful,” she muttered again.

  Tang Hao was silent for a while.

  It was indeed faster to increase one’s cultivation base through dual-cultivation.

  However, performing dual-cultivation for the sole purpose of increasing one’s cultivation base would be too irresponsible!

  “You can’t do dual cultivation casually. You have to have established a relationship with your partner,” Tang Hao said seriously. “Look, it’s not like you like me…”

  “Who said that? I like you!” She interjected.

  “Huh?”

  Tang Hao looked at her in a daze.

  She bit her lips with her pearly white teeth and looked away, averting Tang Hao’s eyes. “I… I don’t know whether I like you or not, but I feel that you’re very nice. Memories of you would pop up inexplicably, and I want to be closer to you!”

  “That… I guess you like me!”

  “I’ve never felt this way before. I’m not sure either.”

  As she spoke, she gripped Tang Hao’s hand even tighter.

  Tang Hao was stunned for a long time.

  He opened his mouth but did not know what to say.

  “Don’t you believe me?” She felt aggrieved.

  “No!”

  “See, you don’t believe me!”

  She gritted her teeth, leaned over, and kissed him.

  When their lips touched, her delicate body trembled slightly and went soft.

  Her beautiful eyes stared at Tang Hao.

  After a long time, the two of them separated.

  She wiped her lips, and when she saw how surprised Tang Hao was, she said, “What? It’s not like I haven’t kissed you before. You kissed me so hard that night.”

  Tang Hao immediately felt awkward.

  “But I have a girlfriend! You know that too!”

  “Of course I know!” She said, “I’m not asking you to marry me. It’s just dual cultivation. Besides, I might not be willing to marry you!”

  As she said that, she glared at Tang Hao.

  “That… We’ll talk about it in the future!” Tang Hao stammered.

  “You can tell me when you’ve made up your mind!”

  She immediately turned her head away, but she did not let go of her hand.

  Finally, the plane arrived at its destination.

  “I’ll be leaving first!”

  They remained seated after the cabin door opened. After a while, she let go of her hand, stood up, and resumed her icy appearance.

  It was as if everything just now was an illusion.

  Tang Hao came to his senses long after she disappeared from view.

  He scratched his head, feeling a little distressed.

  A car was waiting for him as he walked out of the plane. It brought him to the airport.

  When he walked out of Provincial City International Airport, he saw Han Yutong.

  “You’re back, Chairman Tang!”

  She walked over quickly and ca
lled out sweetly.

  “Come, give me a hug!”

  Walking up to him, she opened her arms and hugged him tightly.

  “Ahem! Someone’s watching!”

  Tang Hao was quite overwhelmed.

  Assistant Han was getting more and more daring.

  She giggled, then released her hug and stepped back.

  “Get prepared. We’ll go back today!” Tang Hao got into the car and said.

  “OK!”

  She replied, started the car, and drove home.

  Back at Westridge, Tang Hao had a rare moment of relaxation. He had been preparing for the battle for the past two months. Now that they had won, he could finally take a break.

  During the day, he went to work. At night, he accompanied Qin Xiangyi. It was quite relaxing.

  A few days later, it was Qin Xiangyi’s birthday.

  On that day, neither of them went to work. They got up early and went around town. The theme park had become their yearly ritual.

  “Time flies!” Qin Xiangyi exclaimed as they walked along the streets at night.

  “How long have we been together, Lil Tang?”

  She turned around and stared at Tang Hao with a smoldering gaze.

  Tang Hao’s heart skipped a beat. He thought for a moment and said, “It’s been two years and three months!”

  She smiled. “You remember!”

  “Of course!” Tang Hao said.

  Her smile became more brilliant, and her beautiful eyes curved into crescents. They sparkled under the light, and her face looked like a scene from a dream.

  Tang Hao was obsessed with her looks.

  “Am I pretty?”

  She smiled tenderly.

  “You are!” Tang Hao nodded and said.

  “Haven’t you gotten tired of looking at my face, silly?” She giggled.

  “It’s only been two years. I have to look at your face for the rest of my life!” Tang Hao said.

  She smiled again. “The rest of your life… how long is that?”

  “For as long as I live…” Tang Hao muttered.

  She tiptoed gently and kissed him.

  Then, she hugged him tightly and whispered into his ear, “I love you so much, Lil Tang!”

  Under the street light, the two of them hugged each other tightly.

  Their hearts were beating fast.

  After a long time, she let go and stretched out her palm with a smile, “Where’s the gift? Give it to me quickly! I can’t wait to see it!”

  Tang Hao could not help but laugh. He took out a small jade bottle and placed it in her palm.

  “Another pill!” She pouted and complained.

  “This isn’t an ordinary pill!” Tang Hao said, “You’ll know when you open it!”

  “What pill could it be?” She murmured, opened the bottle cap, and poured out a crystal clear pill. The mist inside the pill dispersed and condensed into the shape of a black python.

  “Wow! What a beautiful pill! It’s even shining!” Her beautiful eyes lit up as she exclaimed.

  “Aren’t you at a bottleneck in your cultivation? After taking that pill, you can break through and become as powerful as me!” Tang Hao said.

  “Really?”

  She was pleasantly surprised.

  Then, she smiled and said, “Can I really be as powerful as you?”

  “That’s impossible!” Tang Hao immediately shook his head and said.

  “Hmph! Sooner or later, I’ll be more powerful than you and make you beg for mercy!”

  As she spoke, she bit her red lips. Her expression was exceptionally charming and seductive.

  She rolled the pill in her palm for a while and put it away. She smiled at Tang Hao and said in a soft voice, “Thank you, my dear! I am very satisfied with that gift!

  “Now… bring me up!”

  Tang Hao was baffled.

  “To the sky!” She pointed to the sky and smiled charmingly.

  “Right away!”

  Tang Hao quickly realized what was going on. He became excited, held her hand, and they ran away. Then, he picked her up and carried her to the top floor of the skyscraper, sprinkling cheerful laughter along the way.

  Chapter 764 - As Hard As Steel

  Tang Hao sat cross-legged in the living room.

  Countless pieces of paper were placed in front of him. Each one of them had some scribbles.

  These were all talismans.

  He was studying attack formations.

  In the past, he had focused on defense formations, such as the Yellow Flame Formation. He realized that it was not enough to just defend; he had to find a way to effectively eliminate his enemies as well.

  Halfway through his study, he felt a strong wave of qi coming from the bedroom.

  There were the sounds of things falling.

  “I did it, Lil Tang!”

  As soon as the door opened, Qin Xiangyi rushed out and jumped into his arms happily.

  “Muah!”

  She was so happy that she left kiss marks all over his face.

  “I feel so powerful now, Lil Tang, much more powerful than before. How powerful am I now?” She wrapped her arms around Tang Hao’s neck and clung to his body.

  Tang Hao grinned and said, “Very powerful! There are at most a dozen people in that world more powerful than you!”

  “Wow! The entire world?”

  Her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.

  “Yeah! But it’s hard to say in the future!” Tang Hao said.

  “Why?”

  “I told you that some hidden sects are returning, right?” Tang Hao said.

  “Oh! Those ancient sects!” Qin Xiangyi exclaimed.

  “You’re still clinging onto me!” Tang Hao looked at her and said helplessly.

  “Let me stay this way!”

  She wrinkled her delicate nose and said coyly.

  Then, she kissed him on the forehead.

  “Studying is boring. Let’s do something interesting.” She giggled.

  “Such as?”

  “Let me see how many love bites I can place on your body! I’ll see if I can break my record.” She pushed Tang Hao to the ground and kissed him.

  A few days later, it was Christmas.

  Both of them did not like to celebrate that Western occasion. Usually, they did not do anything special on that day.

  After Christmas, Haotian’s products finally launched in Dongying.

  As early as a month ago, the Dongyingese branch had been successfully established. After more than a month of preparation, the products were finally on the market.

  Other than magical cuisine, every other product was available, such as Bizhi weight loss tea, Bingji beauty cream, Masculine Wind aphrodisiac, Divine Liquor, and Vitality Sports Drink.

  All those products were launched at the same time.

  The news of Haotian’s large-scale invasion in Dongying had caused many boycotts.

  There was some conflict between Huaxia and Dongying. It was normal for people to boycott Huaxianese products because of nationalistic opinions.

  The Dongyingese crowd ridiculed the products’ exaggerated descriptions.

  At first, it was on the major forums and some social networks, but gradually, it began to appear in some magazines and newspapers.

  They used harsh words to criticize Haotian as a company of swindlers.

  Some people also questioned the reason why Haotian could enter the Dongyingese market in such a short time.

  Of course, those doubts were all suppressed.

  Because of the negative press, very few people were interested in Haotian’s products on launch day.

  On that day, a stream began on the biggest live broadcast website in Dongying.

  “I prepared some things for everyone for today’s stream. That’s right, these are Haotian’s products that just went on sale today.”

  On the screen, a plump streamer took out a big shopping bag and poured out many things.

  “You’ve heard of Haotia
n, right? Scammers! Unscrupulous Huaxianese companies! Not only do they lie to their own people, but they also come to Dongying to scam our money. They’re absolutely detestable.

  “We can’t let them succeed. We have to let more people know that Haotian is an unscrupulous company.

  “I’ll be trying these products on myself today. I’ll show everyone that these products are fake!”

  After that, the comments exploded.

  “Haotian! Rubbish company! Go away!”

  “I will never use Haotian’s stuff in my life. They can forget about earning a single cent from me.”

  There were curses everywhere.

  The streamer picked up a box of Bizhi weight loss tea.

  “Look, this is called Bizhi weight loss tea. Look at the description! Immediate effect? Losing ten pounds in a day? Losing twenty isn’t a dream? Tsk tsk! Look at that pretentious tone! Anyone who believes this is a fool!

  “Alright, I’ll drink a bottle first. It even says here: Expect to lose one or two pounds after drinking a bottle!

  “If I don’t lose any weight, I’ll sue their pants off!”

  He opened the package and took out a bottle.

  Then, he weighed himself. He was 172 pounds.

  He downed the tea in one gulp.

  He smacked his lips and revealed a strange expression. “Eh! Surprisingly, it’s quite delicious. It’s sweet and refreshing. It’s not bad as a drink!”

  After waiting for about ten minutes, he stood up.

  “Let’s take a look!”

  He stood on the scale.

  “It’s fake! Nothing could have happened!”

  Everyone said the same thing on the bullet screen.

  All over Dongying, many people sent out messages with disdainful expressions.

  On the electronic scale, the numbers flashed and changed. Finally, it stopped at 170.

  The streamer was stunned.

  The audience was also stunned. Those who were eating instant noodles and rubbing their feet all stopped. Their eyes were fixed on the bright red number on the screen.

  The streamer thought that his eyes were playing tricks on him. He rubbed his eyes hard.

  He walked down, went on it, then walked down again. He repeated it countless times.

  The number remained the same.

  “Oh no! My scale must be broken. It’s not possible to lose two pounds in ten minutes! That is too ridiculous! You guys wait, I’ll go borrow a scale.”
