Chapter 146: Encountering Thunder Clouds Again

Life in Gentle Village makes one linger unwillingly, but at the same time one needs a pair of steel‑forged kidneys. Time flies; a month passes in a blink, and after Yu Tianyun has been intoxicated by this Gentle Village for a long while, he finally steadies his thoughts, decides not to indulge any longer, and resolutely sets out on the path of cultivation.

The women knew Yu Tianyun's trip would certainly not be brief, so they escorted him out to the outskirts of Tiandou City.

"I'll be back soon," Yu Tianyun said, kissing each of the women goodbye, then rose into the air and flew toward the southern Star Luo Empire.

Now, unless necessary, he rarely uses Dragon Wings to fly, since they would tear his clothes; each flight leaves two conspicuous holes in his back, which looks rather undignified. Therefore, when no outsiders are present, he mostly relies on the flight soul skill of the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone.

"Sisters, when Tianyun returns next time, will he bring us new sisters again?" Duguyan said softly, eyes on Yu Tianyun's shrinking silhouette on the horizon, his expression plaintive.

"Hmph, no need to say, he couldn't hold back for three days; after the last… after two days he was already hopping back onto the bed," Ning Rongrong crossed her arms, curled a lip, her face full of scorn.

"Alright, alright, let's stop guessing. Tianyun may be a bit fickle, but he's sincere with each of us. If we want him to curb his ways, we must cultivate well, keep him from getting out of bed, and he naturally won't seek other women." As Yu Tianyun's favorite, Liu Erlong promptly stepped forward to defend her little man.

The women all nodded in agreement with Liu Erlong's words. Last time they secretly bought whale glue and gave Yu Tianyun a huge 'surprise,' causing him to appear listless for the following month, which made the women vent a bitter sigh.

This made them realize the importance of physical quality, and the simplest way to improve it is to raise their cultivation, so they vowed to train hard, lest they later still suffer Yu Tianyun's 'bullying.'

Of course, they are not utterly opposed to Yu Tianyun bringing back more women. Otherwise their relationship wouldn't be this harmonious now. Each still harbors selfishness; no one wants to share their love with others. But if Yu Tianyun truly brings back other women, at most they'll have a few initial feelings, which will fade after a while.

The Douluo Continent is, after all, a feudal society; polygamy is perfectly normal, especially in the Blue Electric Tyrannosaur family, where almost every man keeps many mistresses abroad, a fact well known throughout the Soul Master World.

Unless their partners possess outstanding talent that can restrain their men, like Yu Tianyun's mother, whose talent matches that of Liu Erlong and Yu Tianyun's father, granting her greater authority, which prevented Yu Tianyun's father from producing any half‑siblings for him.

Indeed, the women around Yu Tianyun are also exceptionally talented, but Yu Tianyun's talent is even more astonishing, as if from another dimension.

Yu Tianyun's talent is arguably the greatest on the Douluo Continent; even the so‑called Dual Birth Martial Soul pales before him. Moreover, their excellence largely stems from the celestial herbs Yu Tianyun provides, so they are self‑aware and do not become arrogant from favoritism.

The consensus on the continent is that the strong deserve more. Moreover, Yu Tianyun truly treats them well, satisfying both their spiritual needs and, physically, leaving no flaws, fulfilling all their ideal fantasies of a man.

Watching Yu Tianyun vanish completely on the horizon, the women finally turned slowly and headed back to the city.

Meanwhile, Yu Tianyun took a detour! Yet he wasn't heading for any illicit business; he intended to visit the Sensitive One Clan.

He wants to condense his Qi‑blood soul core, so he must prepare thoroughly, and he knows the clan chief—White Crane—holds a celestial herb called Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

The Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is naturally an eighth‑grade herb; after ten thousand years of cultivation it can evolve to ninth grade. The one White Crane possesses has at least five thousand years of cultivation; if it reaches ten thousand years, its effect will certainly surpass the Lovesickness Red that Duguyan took.

The herb's effect is simple: it greatly boosts a person's Qi‑blood and physical strength! And Yu Tianyun, seeking to condense his Qi‑blood soul core, needs precisely those two aids.

Although his Qi‑blood and physical robustness are already high, absorbing the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng would undoubtedly give him greater certainty. Moreover, he currently lacks a vessel like the Evil God Pearl, so he must maximize his certainty. The more soul core he condenses, the more his combat power soars and cultivation speeds up, but it also becomes increasingly difficult; a slight slip could endanger his life, so any amount of preparation is justified.

Yu Tianyun flew toward the southeast of the Star Luo Empire, where the Sensitive One Clan's territory lies. Though he isn't in a hurry to condense his soul core and the mixed‑origin celestial herb's potency isn't fully absorbed yet, securing the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng early would bring peace of mind. If Tang San were to beat him there, he'd truly be left crying.

Yu Tianyun is highly confident about successfully obtaining the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

The Sensitive One Clan is short on money, while he still has many Jin Hun Coins his father‑in‑law gave him last time; to him those coins are plentiful, especially since the clan is impoverished—its total holdings are less than a thousand Jin Hun Coins. To White Crane, that must be an astronomical sum.

Moreover, the Lan Dian Ba Wang Sect has often aided the Sensitive One Clan over the years, and their relationship remains friendly, so Yu Tianyun's chance of buying the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng with money is quite high.

Furthermore, if he can't buy it, he'll simply seize it! With Yu Tianyun's formidable strength, subduing a White Crane who lacks offensive power and is only fast is a piece of cake.

Even if White Crane disregards his clan's lives, he still won't escape Yu Tianyun's grasp.

Yu Tianyun is confident in his speed: the Dragon Wings reinforced by External Attached Soul Bone, the flight soul skill of the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone, a physique stronger than that of ordinary Title Douluo, plus several potent amplification soul skills. Combined, he doubts any Soul Douluo can surpass his speed.

Of course, Yu Tianyun never seeks conflict; he only loves beauties, so negotiating this deal calmly is ideal. But if White Crane doesn't appreciate the gesture, Yu Tianyun won't be blamed for being ruthless; the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is his destiny! "White Crane clan chief, you surely don't want your people to starve daily, nor your beautiful granddaughter to be… hmm… *cackle*!" Yu Tianyun thought of a wicked notion, and an evil grin spread across his face.

"Huh? How could my thoughts be so vile? It must be the influence of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger!"

Yu Tianyun jolted awake, quickly dispelling the evil thoughts, and silently pondered:

"I've never had such evil thoughts before; even when facing Tang San, I never thought this way. It seems the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's malice has subtly affected me! I must resolve it quickly, but how should I do so?"

"Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu might have a solution, but our relationship isn't solid yet; if it's exposed, they might just slay me as an evil Soul Master with a single sword!"

"Perhaps the Sea God's divine power could help…"

"Boom—" a sudden thunderclap rang, interrupting Yu Tianyun's thoughts.

He quickly looked up and saw a dense black cloud gathering to his right front.

Yu Tianyun felt a chill down his spine, yet his gaze grew brighter, eager to test whether the increase in his Soul Ring's age truly stemmed from his first Soul Ring absorbing heavenly thunder, which also best counters evil qi and would surely aid him in dispelling his dark thoughts.
