BXBX NOVEL Chapter 77
Chapter 77
“Kid, please don’t look down on others; Lord Ergouzi has recently had a huge increase in cultivation level and doesn’t want to stoop to your level,”
Ergouzi seemed very proud.
“You haven’t been cultivating recently, so how have you become stronger?” Li Xiaobai asked.
“Lord Ergouzi’s bloodline has awakened. Lately, every time I do a good deed, the power inside my body grows a little stronger, and today has finally come.”
Ergouzi was excited; it was now a dog with an impressive cultivation level.
Li Xiaobai understood in his heart that this was because of the Justice Elixir. The fact that doing good deeds could actually increase one’s cultivation level was indeed magical, a true hallmark of System products.
“So what breed are you exactly?”
“Woof, Lord Ergouzi is a supreme being!”
“And what is your current cultivation level?”
“The supreme level!”
Well, asking was a waste of time—Li Xiaobai knew that Ergouzi probably didn’t even understand itself; although it had shown signs of greatness before, most of the time, it still had an unreliable demeanor.
Li Ya felt that everyone around Li Xiaobai was shrouded in mystery, including Li Xiaobai himself.
No one knew where he came from, nor did anyone know the secret of Tangneng First-class.
But that didn’t stop him from making friends with Li Xiaobai. Not to mention anything, being able to create a bathhouse like Tangneng First-class, he definitely wasn’t an ordinary person.
…
In the city, all branches of Tangneng First-class opened for business simultaneously.
The cultivators of the entire city surged forth, flocking in droves. The reputation of the bathhouse had long been established, and nearly everyone knew that soaking in the baths could enhance their cultivation level.
The management and operation of the bathhouses were overseen by the various Family Heads.
Male and female cultivators gathered, all of them well-prepared, having diligently practiced body refining techniques in recent days. They had developed the curves and muscles they should have.
This large-scale bathing event was not only for cultivation but also to attract the opposite sex.
The Family Heads looked on with surprise; they had come to bathe as well, choosing cultivation over face between the two,
but they never expected that the disciples of their families, usually so pampered, would actually take the initiative to start body refining.
And by the looks of their figures and muscles, it seemed they hadn’t skimped on hard work.
“Who would’ve thought, Boss Ye’s Tangneng First-class not only attracts customers but also has educational merit. I’ve been racking my brains to get these disciples to do body training with no success, and now they’re actually willing to put in the effort to practice.”
“Isn’t that the truth! The body is the foundation, after all. I’ve had such a headache trying to get them to focus on their base, and here this bathhouse has helped solve a major worry for me. But speaking of which, these disciples have indeed done an impressive job training.”
“Hehe, that little fatty from the Wang Family has actually developed a six-pack; what startling progress!”
“Miss Zhang from the Zhang Family isn’t doing too badly either. From a sickly girl, she now emits a wild allure.”
…
The Clan Leaders were reassured by the performance of their disciples—regardless of their motives, these young people had finally gotten the hang of it.
Inside the bathhouse, the atmosphere was harmonious, with male and female cultivators inadvertently showing off their physiques to attract each other, much to the satisfaction of the family elders, presenting a scene of peace and harmony.
Moreover, everyone was candid in the pools, which almost instantaneously brought their relationships closer.
“Wow, look, the Family Heads’ physiques are actually so amazing!”
“Yeah, my elders are always in those wide robes every day, and you can’t tell anything; who knew they actually had such strong muscles.”
“I originally thought our Family Head was a bit on the plump side, but it seems I was worried over nothing. Indeed, body refining is the right choice!”
“Even the Family Heads insist on body refining, so it must be beneficial. Following the Family Head’s lead is bound to be the correct choice!”
Seeing the clan elders immerse themselves in the pool, the disciples excitedly started to discuss.
The murmurs reached the ears of the Family Heads, who stood a little taller, their muscles tensing slightly, looking even more sculptured and defined.
“Patriarch Xia, you have some impressive abs there. Surely, that’s the result of at least ten years of hard work?”
“Haha, Patriarch Wang flatters me too much. Your latissimus dorsi must have taken you twenty years to build. Truly enviable!”
“When it comes to muscles, Patriarch Zhang’s physique is truly enviable. With that armor-like musculature, even Lower Grade Spiritual Artifacts couldn’t penetrate, could they?”
“It’s nothing to brag about…”
Inside Tangneng First-class, it was relatively quiet.
There were too many shops in the city, and they were all quite luxurious. In comparison, this original small store wasn’t as bustling as it used to be.
The ones who came were mostly old friends or cultivators who were curious about Li Xiaobai and wanted to catch a glimpse of the owner himself.
Wang Ruoxian and Xia Jian also came.
These two were popular figures in the city, and the young talents were all speculating about their true strength.
“Yan Yu, take Immortal for a bath.”
“No need, I’m fine right here.”
A cool voice responded, and Wang Ruoxian gracefully walked in, immersing herself in the bathhouse.
The hearts of the male disciples present stirred. Immortal Wang was undeniably the number one beauty in the city, and when it came to her aloof demeanor, no one could compare.
To think that such a great beauty would bathe in the same pool as them was like a blessing falling from the sky!
“So you’re Ye Liangchen, the one who injured my older and younger brothers?”
Xia Jian casually waved his fan as his robe flowed across the water’s surface. He looked particularly cultured while soaking in the pool.
“I am Ye Liangchen. Liangchen just happened to get beaten up; I didn’t initiate an attack on anyone. It’s just that the gap in strength was too great, and as a result, it was your family members who got hurt,” Li Xiaobai said.
“Why say so much, the Xia Family just deserves a beating,” Ergouzi said, sticking out his tongue, his face full of disgust.
“Tomorrow there’s a gathering of the city’s young talents, and Xia would hope that Boss Ye could join,” Xia Jian’s eyes held a shadow of gloom.
“Of course, any event that has Liangchen present is bound to be a highlight. Without Liangchen, it couldn’t be called a gathering of young talents,” Li Xiaobai replied with a cheery grin.
“Boss Ye has a way with words. Miss is quite curious about your strength,” Wang Ruoxian said, slightly parting her red lips and speaking faintly.
“Unmatched through the ages!” Li Xiaobai replied indifferently. It had only been two or three months since he started cultivating, and he had gone from a weakling to surviving a strike from a Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivator without dying.
In the Northern Region, no one could match him.
It seemed the cultivation level of the two people before him wasn’t mediocre. They might become a source of Attribute Points for him in the future, so it was time to sow some hatred first.
“Lord Ergouzi too is an unparalleled existence!” Ergouzi also stood up with conviction.
Wang Ruoxian’s gaze was indifferent, otherworldly, “Boss Ye jests. Those who have been unparalleled throughout the ages are all mighty beings capable of breaking the spatial barriers and ascending to the Upper Realm. Although Boss Ye’s strength is commendable, one must understand that there are heavens beyond our own.”
“In Zhenyuan Country, there is a Spiritual Spring. Soaking in it, the Spiritual Energy surges and can help one break through several small realms in a day. Today, I have experienced Boss Ye’s bathhouse and will take my leave.”
“Boss Ye, see you at the gathering.”
