Chapter 684 - 525: All in One Go: Gao Neng’s Ultimate Plan (Part 2)

"Dual... cultivation." Gao Neng shrugged.

"Huh? Oh... ah?!" Luna froze for a moment, then jolted in shock. The healthy blush on her cheeks deepened to a blood-red.

"Madam Lu, what’s wrong?"

"You little rascal, you’re not to mention what happened today to anyone, especially not when you see your uncle... Understand?" Luna said, biting her lip.

"???" Gao Neng.

’This is such a serious matter. Why can’t I talk about it?’

’Madam Lu...’

’This isn’t right!’

"Oh, right, Qinglian is here too. Isn’t she on your list of twenty? I even had her take a bath. Should I call her over now?" Seeing Gao Neng remain silent, Luna finally managed to calm the turbulent emotions in her heart.

"There’s no need to call her over, right? It’s the same if I go to her. Besides, there are other people." Gao Neng had completely missed why Luna specifically emphasized that she had taken a bath.

’Could it be... she thinks there’s enough time right now...’

’Enough?’

’No way, right?’

"Alright, then I’ll... be going?"

"Take care, Madam Lu."

"Okay!" Luna turned and left.

Gao Neng didn’t delay any longer.

Time was tight.

The attack from the Eastern Region Alien Race Alliance Army was just over an hour away. The only thing he could do now was to help Yi Qinglian and the others increase their strength as much as possible.

He stepped out of the military tent.

Fang Tangtang was already waiting, looking rather impatient.

"Spit it out, what exactly were you and that Madam Lu of yours doing in there?!" Fang Tangtang demanded the moment she saw Gao Neng emerge.

"We were practicing kung fu, of course!" Gao Neng replied casually.

"Practicing kung fu? What kind of kung fu..."

"It’s a secret, can’t tell you. Anyway, it’s a very profound type of kung fu."

"You think I’d believe that?"

"Where’s Ning’Er?"

"The twenty squads... Sister Ning’Er said she wanted to review them personally. Oh, right... Sister Ning’Er also said she wants to join one of the twenty squads!" Fang Tangtang added.

"No, she’s the commander of these twenty squads!" Gao Neng shook his head.

"Huh? Aren’t I the commander?" Hearing this, Fang Tangtang blinked in surprise.

"You’re so outstanding and capable, it would be a waste of your talents if you didn’t go into battle and kill enemies!" Gao Neng glanced at Fang Tangtang, the corner of his mouth twitching upwards.

"Hahaha, you get me!" Fang Tangtang laughed immediately.

The two chatted back and forth.

They soon arrived at a gathering point.

Gao Neng spotted Shaximo in the crowd at a glance, because Shaximo’s head was just too conspicuous.

"Hey, Shaximo," Gao Neng greeted him warmly.

"..." Shaximo immediately turned his head to the side, wearing an expression that screamed, ’I don’t see you, I absolutely cannot see you.’

"By the way, Shaximo, what tier are you now?" Seeing that Shaximo was ignoring him, Gao Neng walked right up to him and asked.

"Great Sun Buddha, a monk does not lie... I... just broke through to the Tier Seven Late Stage." As Shaximo spoke, he turned his head away again.

What a genius!

What does it mean to be a genius? It means going from the Tier Seven Early Stage to the Tier Seven Late Stage in just one or two months.

That was a genius!

But, in front of Gao Neng...

...he was crap.

Because the other guy had already broken through to Tier Nine.

"Huh? Shaximo, you’re the number one Dragon List Genius, aren’t you? How are you only at the Tier Seven Late Stage?" Fang Tangtang chimed in at the perfect moment with a look of confusion.

"Tier Seven Late Stage... what’s wrong with that?" Shaximo composed himself. He couldn’t hold his head high in front of Gao Neng, but there was no reason to bow his head in front of Fang Tangtang, right?

"I’m already Tier Eight!" Fang Tangtang puffed out her chest.

"..." Shaximo.

’Shit!’

’Is there no justice in this world?!’

’How is this fair?!’

’Even Fang Tangtang has surpassed him!’

’Number one on the Dragon List.’

Suddenly, Shaximo felt that title was a bit hard to stomach.

Gao Neng had no intention of teasing Shaximo any further, because there were more Dragon List Geniuses nearby, their eyes flickering.

"Hey, Wei Ya!" Gao Neng greeted Wei Ya.

"Councillor Gao, hello." Wei Ya was clearly much more tactful.

"What tier are you?" Gao Neng asked immediately.

"..." Wei Ya.

’Isn’t he asking the obvious?’

But after a moment’s thought, Wei Ya replied seriously, "Five days ago, I just broke through to the Tier Seven Late Stage. Three days later than Shaximo!"

"Oh, and what about Zhou Jin?" Gao Neng nodded and looked at Zhou Jin, who was standing beside them.

"I broke through three days ago." Zhou Jin’s expression was calm; he didn’t seem embarrassed by Gao Neng’s question at all.

"Has your master broken through yet?" Gao Neng asked, having thought of something.

"No."

"Is she in the Eastern District?"

"She... is! She just rushed over here with me." Zhou Jin didn’t quite understand why Gao Neng was asking, but he answered anyway.

"Mm, I hear she’s your mother?" Gao Neng blinked.

"..." Zhou Jin.

’Is that important?’

’Is it?!’

"Gao Neng, my brother... he’s also reached the Tier Seven Late Stage!" Just then, a voice rang out, and Yi Qinglian stepped out from the crowd.

"I know." Gao Neng nodded.

"It’s just that I’m only..."

"I know that too." Gao Neng waved his hand, cutting Yi Qinglian off.

Because time was limited.

He didn’t continue the chat.

From the conversation, he could already sense the shame and indignation of the Dragon List Geniuses. This was a very good thing; shame could be a powerful motivator.

"Alright, two things!" Gao Neng began.

"..." All the Dragon List Geniuses immediately fell silent and looked at Gao Neng intently, including Yi Qinglian, whose blush faded from her face.

They all knew it was time to get down to business.

"First, I’m going to give you some Energy Liquid Base from the Source of Evolution, what you all call ’Holy Liquid’. Perhaps this will allow you to make a breakthrough." Gao Neng paused slightly here.

"..." The Dragon List Geniuses were silent.

Then came excitement.

Then an uproar.

ROAR!

"The Holy Liquid?!"

"So that’s it! There was a reason Gao Neng and Fang Tangtang broke through to Tier Nine and Tier Eight!"

"I can’t believe it was because of the Holy Liquid!"

"..."

After the Dragon List Geniuses finished speaking, their gazes became fiery.

"In a moment, I will distribute different types of Holy Liquid based on your physical characteristics, and I’ll try to find ones that suit you!" Gao Neng spoke again.

"Different types of Holy Liquid?"

"We can actually choose?"

"This... isn’t this too amazing?"

The Dragon List Geniuses found it hard to believe.

But since Gao Neng was the one who said it, they had to believe it, even if they didn’t.

After all, Gao Neng was fundamentally an unreasonable person.

"Second, you will each receive a ’Token’. You must keep this Token on your person at all times. Do not lose it, no matter what!" Gao Neng’s tone grew serious by the end.

"Understood!" the Dragon List Geniuses nodded immediately.

"Do you know what this Token is for?" Gao Neng asked.

"We... don’t know." The Dragon List Geniuses shook their heads.

"It’s better that you don’t know. You don’t need to know what the Token does. You just need to know that you must charge forward fearlessly on the battlefield. That’s all!"

"..."

"Understand?"

"Understood!"

"Alright, then. Let’s start distributing the ’Holy Liquid’. First up... Shaximo, what flavor do you like? Sweet or sour? Okay... I know what flavor you like. Here, take this." As he spoke, Gao Neng handed a bottle of ’Werewolf Race’ Holy Liquid to Shaximo.

"..." Shaximo.

’But I didn’t say anything, did I?’

’How do you know what flavor I like...’

Although he thought this, Shaximo still quickly drank the Holy Liquid in one gulp.

GULP!

BOOM!!

The ground cracked open.

A golden light shot into the sky.

The sound of Zen chants echoed in the air!
