It was almost midnight before the two of them returned to the dormitory. As both of them had outstanding physiques, they did not feel tired.
âSu Hao, go take a bath first. Iâll make soup with this and let you try my cooking.â
Su Hang turned around with a smile and waved the mushroom in his hand.
âOkay.â
Su Hao replied. He then returned to his room to look for his clothes and began to bathe.
Although they werenât tired from their trip to the Demonic Beast Forest today, they were drenched in sweat and their clothes were stained with mud.
Su Hao quickly washed up and returned to the living room.. He saw Su Hang cutting all kinds of ingredients and throwing them into the pot.
He could sense that the side dishes contained Spiritual Energy.
âCould it be thatâ¦â
Su Hao immediately walked over when he thought that Su Hang might be using Spiritual Items to make soup.
âBrother Hang, are these side dishes all made up of Spiritual Herbs?â
Su Hao frowned as he stared at the ingredients in the boiling water.
âYes, thatâs right. I picked these in the Demonic Beast Forest before. Theyâre not worth much at all.â
Su Hang knew what Su Hang was thinking when he saw Su Hao frowning, so he explained.ic
âAh, there are such things in the Demon Beast Forest?â
Su Hao blinked like a curious baby.
âOf course. Although these are all First-Grade Spiritual Plants, they are not very precious. They can be seen almost everywhere in the periphery of the Demonic Beast Forest. Normally, cultivators who are good at eating will go and pick some. When they are cooking, they will add a little. Not only can it make the food more delicious, but it can also add a bit of Spiritual Energy.â
âThis pot of Rosy Cloud Mushroom soup is just right, it can bring out the effect of the mushroom cloud even more.â
Su Hang stared into the pot while answering Su Haoâs question.
âI see.â
Su Hao nodded. âBrother Hang, you know a lot.â
Su Hang smiled and said proudly, âMy mother is an Immortal Chef and Iâm naturally influenced by her, so I know a little.â
âAlright, alright. Donât disturb me here. Go sit on the sofa and wait. Hurry!â
âOkay.â
Su Hang quickly waved his hands and chased Su Hao out like a housefly.
Su Hao, who was sitting on the sofa, was full of excuses. He opened his phone and remembered that he had not told Xia Qingxue about himwhen he returned to the dormitory. Hence, he quickly opened her chat box.
âSister Qingxue, Iâm back in the dormitory. Iâve already showered and am waiting for Brother Hang to cook.â
Ding!
âOk! Tomorrow morning is our first practical training lesson. Donât be late like before.â
Seeing Xia Qingxueâs teasing message, Su Hao smiled helplessly and replied.
âCanât you just wake me up?â
This time, Xia Qingxue did not reply immediately. She only replied after about a minute.
âNo problem. Iâll drive downstairs tomorrow morning and wait for you.â
âAh, thatâs!â
Su Haoâs hand froze. He suddenly didnât know how to reply. If Xia Qingxue really drove her Ferrari over to pick him up, he would probably incur another wave of hatred. However, he shook his head and replied, âOkay, then we will meet tomorrow!â
That was what he thought. Since he had already done so much, it didnât matter if he did more. Besides, Xia Qingxue didnât care about what others said more than him, so why would a man like him care! A clear conscience didnât care about shadows. They could say whatever they wanted, as long as they understood it in their hearts!
âAlright! Iâll go take a shower now.â
On the other end of the phone, Xia Qingxue quickly replied and ended the call. Her face was flushed red as she buried her head under the blanket shyly. Her pair of fair legs could not help but sway due to her shyness.
Previously, she was the one who drugged Su Hao and pushed him to the ground. Now, she was the one who was seduced by Su Haoâs casual words. She was really a woman with high offense but low defense.
â¦
âSu Hao, get the cutlery for the food.â
Su Hang placed a pot of soup on the dining table and greeted Su Hao who was sitting on the sofa.
âAlright.â
After preparing for a while, the two started eating.
âMmm! Brother Hang, your soup is too rich! It smells good!â
Su Hao popped a mouthful of soup into his mouth and his eyes went blank. He showed him his thumb and praised him at the same time.
âOf course! My mom is an Immortal Chef! If I canât cook well, my mom will kill me. Hahahaha.â
Su Hang wore a smug smile on his face, clearly enjoying Su Haoâs praise.
Not long after, the two of them swept away the entire meal.
Burp!
Su Hao gently rubbed his bloated stomach and burped. Immediately after, he felt his entire body start to heat up.
Initially, he did not think much of it. However, as the heat increased and his skin began to turn red, he realized that something was amiss and asked about it.
âBig Brother Hang, why do I feel like my body is getting hotter and hotter? Is it because of that Rosy Cloud Mushroom?â
Su Hang had long discovered the changes in Su Haoâs body. When he heard Su Haoâs doubts, he nodded his head gently and said, âThatâs right. The effects of the Rosy Cloud Mushroom have already spread out in your body. At the start, you will feel extremely hot and dry. After about two hours, it will fade away. At that time, the impurities in your body will be expelled along with your sweat and with that, it will improve.â
âNow, sit down with your legs crossed and let me protect you.â
Su Hang said worriedly.
âThen, Brother Hang, donât you need to absorb the medicine yourself?â
âEven though that thing has helped me improve, itâs not as heavy for me. Therefore, Iâve already channeled my Spiritual Energy to absorb it.â
Hearing this, Su Hao slightly nodded his head. He didnât say anything more and found a relatively empty place in the living room, then directly sat down cross-legged.
His body was getting hotter and hotter and his skin was glowing red. Sweat mixed with black matter was being expelled.
Su Hang, who was standing at the side, was extremely satisfied with the situation.
An hour later, the heat in Su Haoâs body reached its peak. The high temperature made him frown in discomfort but fortunately, that was all. Compared to the pain from swallowing the Demonic Core last time, this degree of heat was nothing.
Another hour later, Su Haoâs body temperature had already dropped and he was covered in pitch-black substances. A stench filled the entire living room and Su Hang could not help but cover his nose.
âDamn, I just showered!â
When Su Hao opened his eyes, he immediately realized that his entire body had become extremely dirty and the smell was especially unpleasant.
Before he could complain, the systemâs voice sounded again.
âCongratulations to the host for absorbing the Second-Grade Spiritual Plant, Rosy Cloud Mushroom. All attributes have been increased by 300 points!â
Su Haoâs heart skipped a beat. He silently opened the information panel.
Then, he saw that his attributes had reached 1140 points!
Moreover, he broke through! His physical body finally broke through! His physical body finally reached the 11th Layer of the Aura Refinement Realm!
