After three months of researching battle armor, Huo Yuhao finally emerged from the laboratory.
Upon hearing the news, Xu Tianran and Xiao Hongchen immediately approached him, eager to learn about Huo Yuhao's progress and whether he had, as he had previously claimed, developed a soul guide device that would revolutionize the Sun-Moon Empire's soul-guiding technology.
However, Huo Yuhao ignored them at this moment, concentrating on showering and getting ready.
Xiao Hongchen, observing Xu Tianran with an elegant smile, finally couldn't help but whisper,
"Crown Prince, I heard you have children now, correct?"
According to Xiao Hongchen's gossip, since Xu Tianran's body had recovered from the effects of the Life Gold, he had devoted all his time, besides assisting the Sun-Moon Emperor with government affairs, to conquering beautiful women.
Xu Tianran's tireless efforts had finally resulted in the pregnancy of a Sun-Moon noblewoman.
After this news spread, all the rumors about Xu Tianran were shattered. Countless people secretly wondered just how powerful this Crown Prince Xu Tianran truly was. It was said he'd been working tirelessly lately. Even if he pushed himself too hard, surely there must be a limit?
In response to Xiao Hongchen's question, Xu Tianran didn't seem displeased. Instead, his smile widened. He nodded in agreement and, with a slightly playful smile, looked at Xiao Hongchen and said,
"Would you like me to find you some beauties? Xiao, don't just spend all day in the lab tinkering with soul guides. Some things are only truly appreciated after you've experienced them."
Finally, Xu Tianran winked at Xiao Hongchen and burst into laughter.
Those rumors about his harem affairs were actually spread by Xu Tianran himself, his purpose being to announce to the entire Sun-Moon Empire that he was a real man again, and every single one of them made him the perfect heir to the Sun-Moon Empire!
Even Xiao Hongchen, a tech geek, couldn't help but be intrigued by this matter, which only goes to show how effective Xu Tianran's strategy was.
While sex is indeed a wonderful thing, Xu Tianran, with his strong self-control, certainly wouldn't indulge in it.
After successfully impregnating one of his women, Xu Tianran ceased such activities and instead focused on government affairs, using various methods to improve the living standards of the Sun-Moon Empire's citizens. He also continuously strengthened the Empire's military strength in preparation for the war that would soon engulf the entire continent.
In Xu Tianran's mind, women weren't important; what mattered was how to unify the Sun-Moon Empire and become the first emperor of a unified nation in history!
It was precisely for this reason that, upon hearing that Huo Yuhao had left the laboratory after three months, he immediately visited the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Guidance Institute, wanting to know the progress of Huo Yuhao's research.
Without keeping them waiting for long, Huo Yuhao, having undergone a thorough cleansing, emerged.
Xu Tianran and Xiao Hongchen noticed that Huo Yuhao seemed to have changed since three months ago. With sparkling eyes, they approached and asked.
"How's it going, Yuhao? Have you made any good progress with your research?"
Under their gaze, Huo Yuhao shrugged with a smile.
"Not bad. Research is progressing quite smoothly, but it will probably take a long time to fully complete."
After all, the design and development of battle armor was a completely new concept. At most, the humanoid soul guide from Mingde Hall could provide some insights; the rest had to be designed by Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena themselves.
Despite some bumps in the road over the past three months, overall, it had been quite smooth sailing.
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's answer, Xu Tianran and Xiao Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Tianran even smiled at Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, if you encounter any difficulties or need anything, just let me know and I'll help you arrange it!"
Xiao Hongchen nodded in agreement. "That's right, that's right. Although I no longer have much to offer you regarding soul guidance techniques, if you need anything related to rare metals, I can still help you,"
Huo Yuhao chuckled.
"Don't worry, I won't hesitate to help you if you need anything. While this research will take a long time, I can guarantee that if it succeeds, the overall strength of the Sun-Moon Empire will see a qualitative leap! Just wait and see."
Huo Yuhao's words filled Xiao Hongchen and Xu Tianran with excitement, wishing they could fast-forward to the moment when Huo Yuhao's research succeeded and brought them the good news.
However, they also knew that developing a new soul guide wasn't something that could be rushed.
To reward Huo Yuhao and prevent him from developing health problems from staying in the lab all the time, Xu Tianran and Xiao Hongchen decided to take him out for a nice, relaxing meal.
After a hearty meal, Huo Yuhao looked at Xiao Hongchen and invited him.
"Xiao, do you want to go to the Soul Fighting Arena for a sparring match? One of the main reasons I left the lab this time was because I felt my mental power had increased again, and I wanted to verify it."
Xiao Hongchen rolled his eyes and curled his lips.
"I won't fight you. Your mental power is too abnormal, especially your self-created soul skill, Mirror Flower and Water Moon. Once you use it, I'm afraid I won't even know how I lost!"
It's not that Xiao Hongchen is too timid, but anyone who has watched the Soul Master Competition would probably want to face a pervert like Huo Yuhao.
There's no need to fight at all. Just activate Mirror Flower and Water Moon, and the opponent will fall into the illusion created by Huo Yuhao.
Some people may think that this illusion can be easily broken, but who gave them the illusion that they wouldn't enter the next illusion after breaking it?
Xiao Hongchen finally understood. Those who play illusions like Huo Yuhao are completely perverted!
Huo Yuhao smacked his lips, feeling somewhat disappointed at being decisively rejected. His spiritual power had indeed experienced another breakthrough, thanks not only to the Life Gold gifted by Gu Yuena, but also to the life essence left by the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
Combined with the lingering effects of the Wangchuanqiushui Dew he had consumed earlier, Huo Yuhao's spiritual power had increased continuously in such a short period of time.
Just then, Xu Tianran suddenly spoke up.
"Yuhao, if you don't mind, how about we play a little? I've only heard of your self-created spirit skill, Mirror Flower and Water Moon, but I've never experienced it. How about this opportunity for me to see it?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen simultaneously turned to look at Xu Tianran.
Seeing the smile and sincerity on his face, Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment before nodding his agreement.
"Of course!"
Seeing Huo Yuhao's agreement, Xu Tianran wasted no time and headed directly with Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen to the Sun Moon Royal Spirit Guidance Academy's fighting arena.
Xu Tianran had waited a long time for an opportunity, an opportunity that would allow him to become famous in the Sun-Moon Empire, to let everyone in the Sun-Moon Empire know that he, the crown prince, was not only outstanding in handling government affairs, but also had an incomparably powerful talent in cultivation!
And now, that opportunity had arrived!
