Seeing that Qin Haodong did not speak, Zhao Yu’s face flashed with pride. “Boy, you are afraid now but it’s too late!

“Let me tell you. In two years, I will be the King of Tortoise Kingdom. At that time, your nine clans will be executed by me.”

Zhao Xingyue said discontentedly, “Zhao Yu, what nonsense are you spouting?”

Zhao Yu said, “Zhao Xingyue, are you jealous? However, jealousy is useless. You are a woman and a useless one at that. The throne of Tortoise Kingdom is destined to be mine. It has nothing to do with you.”

Qin Haodong smiled slightly and asked, “Your Highness, are you so sure?”

Zhao Yu proudly said, “Is there anything to doubt? My father only has one son. Even a fool knows that I will definitely be the King of Tortoise Kingdom in the future.”

Qin Haodong said, “I don’t think so. I bet you can’t become the King.”

“Boy, what nonsense are you talking about?” Zhao Yu angrily said, “Do you think you are powerful just because you won the competition?

“Let me tell you. You’ve not become the son-in-law of Tortoise Kingdom. Even if you are the son-in-law now, the two of you are just good-for-nothings.”

Wu Yuenian doted on him. This guy had developed an arrogant and domineering personality since he was a child. He had never taken his sister, Zhao Xingyue, seriously.

Today, he heard that Qin Haodong had made his mother suffer a lot, so he deliberately came out to avenge his mother.

Zhao Xingyue angrily said, “Zhao Yu, do you know what you are doing? I will report this to father later.”

Zhao Yu’s face was full of disdain. He said, “So what if you lodge a complaint? Can father cripple me? He only has one son. No matter what, I will be the future King.

“As for you, a woman, no matter how hard you try, it will be of no use. All you can do is stand aside and watch.”

Zhao Xingyue was so angry that her face turned livid. She pulled Qin Haodong and said, “Ignore him. Let’s go.”

After they returned to the courier station, Zhao Xingyue still felt the lingering anger.

Qin Haodong said, “There’s no need to get so angry over such a bastard.”

Zhao Xingyue said, “It’s all because of that hateful old woman, Wu Yuenian. She assassinated my brothers and sister. Otherwise, her son wouldn’t have been so arrogant.”

Qin Haodong thought for a moment and asked, “Xingyue, has there ever been a precedent of a woman being the King in your Tortoise Kingdom?”

“There was one.” Zhao Xingyue said, “In Tortoise Kingdom, although men are superior to women, martial arts has always been respected. As long as a woman has the absolute ability, she can take over the position of King.”

The Little Witch said, “Little Brother, why do you ask this? You want Sister Xingyue to be the King?”

Qin Haodong laughed and said, “What’s wrong? You are not happy if I let your Sister Xingyue be the King?”

The Little Witch laughed. “I am certainly happy but won’t you become a queen then?”

“Uh…”

Qin Haodong was speechless. He had never thought about it.

Zhao Xingyue blushed and said, “Stop joking. It’s completely impossible.

“I am a woman. Zhao Yu is the Prince. His cultivation is higher than mine. Moreover, he has the backing of Wu Yuenian and Zhangsun Chengdu. No matter what, I am not in the line to succession to be the King.

“Besides, what is so good about becoming a King? I have never thought about it.”

Qin Haodong said, “Some things are actually destined. It’s not about whether you want to do it or not. You will definitely be the King of Tortoise Kingdom in the future.”

The Little Witch said with a smile, “Little Brother, how can you know? Can you predict the future?”

Qin Haodong said, “Yes, I did a divination using my fingers. Your Sister Xingyue will be the King in the future.”

Zhao Xingyue thought they were joking and didn’t take Qin Haodong’s words seriously at all.

After chatting for a while, Qin Haodong called out the Three-legged Golden Toad. He was ready to get dragon saliva and refine the pill.

However, even though the toad opened its mouth wide, no saliva came out.

He had no choice. He had to ask the Little Witch to open the Gate of Life. A first-level demonic beast, Hexagon Sheep, was summoned. Then, this sheep was put in front of the Three-legged Golden Toad.

This method was indeed effective. When it saw the Hexagon Sheep, the Three-legged Golden Toad’s drool started flowing like tap water.

Qin Haodong got two bottles of dragon saliva. Then, he put the Three-legged Golden Toad in the Spirit Beast Pouch and returned to his room to refine the pill.

After closing the door, he successively set up a few restrictions. Then, with a thought, he returned to the Seven Storeys Pagoda.

After taking the Energy Explosion Pill, there would be a period of weakness. Now, he had a strong enemy. An assassin might jump out at any time. This was the safest place for him.

He took out the Shennong Furnace and the medicinal materials for refining the pill. Everything was ready. He took out three Little Energy Explosion Pills and swallowed them.

When refining the seventh-level pill, he only needed to improve his cultivation a little. It was enough to reach the early stage of the Combination Realm. The effect of the Great Energy Explosion Pill was the strongest but the side effect was also strong.

He could only swallow it once within 24 hours. The period of weakness was even longer. By contrast, it was much more suitable for him to swallow Little Energy Explosion Pills.

As soon as the pills entered his mouth, the Genuine Qi in his body swelled. He soon reached the early stage of the Combination Realm. He took advantage of this limited time to refine the pill.

Half an hour later, the Seven Storeys Pagoda was filled with rich pill fragrance. The Dragon Power Pills, the seventh-level pills, were finally refined.

Qin Haodong patted the Shennong Furnace. A series of nine black pills flew out and fell into the porcelain bottle next to him.

At the same time, the medicinal effect of the Little Energy Explosion Pills vanished. A wave of weakness came over him.

He picked up the small porcelain bottle, in which the Dragon Power Pills emitted the strong pill fragrance. Each pill even had one vein.

“Okay! It should be able to help Zhao Xianlong break through his long-term bottleneck.”

He put the porcelain bottle into the Storage Ring. Then, he ran Green-Wood Genuine Qi to restore his cultivation.

About an hour later, the weakness slowly disappeared. The Genuine Qi in his body was restored.

He took out a Dragon Power Pill and threw it into his mouth. He wanted to see if it had any effect on him. However, half an hour passed, the Genuine Qi in his body did not react. It seemed that any elixir seemed to have no effect on him.

Qin Haodong shook his head slightly. If cultivation could be compared to using a barrel to hold water, the cultivation process of others was to constantly raise the barrel and then fill the barrel with water.

Consuming pills, tempering mental states, and suppressing inner demons were the same as raising the barrel. Increasing the amount of Spirit Qi was equivalent to filling the barrel with water.

His situation was extremely special. Now, the barrel was complete. What was needed was the water inside.

It was no exaggeration to say that as long as he had enough Spiritual Qi, he could reach the stage of the Tribulation Realm in a short time. However, this was really too difficult.

The higher his cultivation was, the thicker the barrel was. However, the Spiritual Qi needed to grow exponentially.

If he could quietly cultivate on the seventh floor of the Seven Storeys Pagoda where the rich Spiritual Qi was, he believed that it would not take a hundred years for him to reach the stage of the Tribulation Realm.

One hundred years was nothing to other cultivators at all but he couldn’t wait. If one hundred years really passed, he wouldn’t know what had happened on earth and what the earth would become.

Therefore, what he had to do now was to try his best to find enough water to fill his barrel. He would go back to earth after he improved his cultivation, so he could open the way back to the earth.

After recovering his cultivation, he left the Seven Storeys Pagoda. Then, he entered the palace with Zhao Xingyue to see Zhao Xianlong.

Seeing them coming in, Zhao Xianlong eagerly asked, “Haodong, how’s it going? Have you refined the pill?”

He had been stuck at the final stage of the Combination Realm for too long. He wished to break through at any moment.

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?”

Zhao Xianlong said, “I certainly want to hear the good news.”

“The good news is that the Dragon Power Pill has been successfully refined. Now you can try to break through the bottleneck of the Grand Completion Realm.”

Qin Haodong said as he stretched out his hand. A black pill appeared in his palm. The strong pill fragrance immediately filled the room.

“Oh my God! It’s really a Dragon Power Pill. Haodong, you are really amazing.”

Zhao Xianlong grabbed the pill and threw it into his mouth. Then, he began cultivating to break through.

Zhao Xingyue took Qin Haodong’s arm and asked with concern, “Big Brother Qin, can your pill really help my father break through to the stage of the Grand Completion Realm?”

Qin Haodong said, “Don’t worry. My pill will definitely work.”

After that, he set up a Qi-concealing formation in the room. Zhao Xianlong’s breakthrough must be kept a secret for the time being. This news could not be made known to Zhangsun Chengdu.

As time went by, Zhao Xianlong’s momentum became stronger and stronger. About an hour later, there was a crisp sound in his mind. Then, his momentum instantly rose to the peak.

The early stage of the Grand Completion Realm, he finally succeeded.

Zhao Xianlong opened his eyes and couldn’t help but laugh heartily. “I’ve broken through. I have really broken through.”

He stood up and said to Qin Haodong, “Good son-in-law, thank you!”

From now on, he totally approved of this son-in-law.

Qin Haodong said, “Your Majesty, I have bad news for you. Do you want to hear it?”

Zhao Xianlong proudly said, “Tell me. I am the King of a kingdom. Now, I have reached the stage of the Grand Completion Realm. Even if there is bad news, I can turn it around.”

“Other things can be changed. However, you can’t change this one.” Qin Haodong looked at him and said, “Your Majesty, I saw Zhao Yu today.”

At the mention of his son, Zhao Xianlong’s expression changed. “That boy has always been a playboy. Did he provoke you? I will teach him a lesson later.”

Qin Haodong shook his head and said, “Your Majesty, have you ever thought whether Zhao Yu is really your son?”

Zhao Xianlong said in astonishment, “What do you mean?”

Qin Haodong said, “I am proficient in medical skills. My understanding of auras is far beyond that of ordinary people. Generally speaking, father and son have the same aura. However, there was no such thing between you and Zhao Yu.

“The worst part is that Zhao Yu’s aura is very similar to Zhangsun Chengdu’s, so Zhao Yu is very likely to be Zhangsun Chengdu’s son.”

Zhao Xianlong’s expression changed greatly in an instant. According to Qin Haodong, not only had he been cuckolded by Wu Yuenian, but they also had a son.

Zhao Xingyue did not expect Qin Haodong to say such words. She quickly pulled his sleeve and said, “Big Brother Qin, is what you said true? You can’t talk nonsense.”

Qin Haodong said, “Of course! It’s a big deal but I can’t keep it a secret.”

Zhao Xianlong angrily said, “That’s impossible. Wu Yuenian and Zhangsun Chengdu are half-siblings. How could they have a son?”

If Qin Haodong hadn’t just given him a Dragon Power Pill, he would have driven him away by now.

“Please calm down, Your Majesty. I’m just talking about the matter as it stands. I don’t mean to slander anyone,” Qin Haodong said indifferently. “Your Majesty, Wu Yuenian and Zhangsun Chengdu are half-siblings. Who said that?”

Zhao Xianlong’s expression froze. “This… Wu Yuenian told me.”

Qin Haodong said, “How credible do you think this kind of thing is?”

“This…” Zhao Xianlong was silent. He had never thought about this problem. Their relationship was completely based on Wu Yuenian’s words. However, what was the real fact. He had no proof.

After a moment of silence, he said with a gloomy face, “How confident are you?”
