Chapter 95: The Eleventh Livestream Ends — The Grandmaster's Greedy Desire!
Because of Tang San's awkward identity—
Although he had correctly answered the latest question and received the extremely valuable Hundred Herb Pill recipe,
Aside from Tang Xiao praising him and Spirit Hall scoffing that he simply got lucky this time—and vowing to kill him and his father if found again—none of the other factions offered any reaction.
[Ding! This round's livestream Q&A has ended. The livestream room will close in 3 minutes. Participants may now freely exit.]
[The next livestream Q&A will be held one month from now!]
Soon after, a line of blood-red text appeared across all screens.
A cold voice echoed in everyone's ears.
One month until the next livestream?
Upon hearing that, both human soul masters and soul beasts frowned.
Based on previous experiences—
Livestreams with a one-month interval usually revealed events from the future.
And when it came to future events—
Both sides, human and soul beast alike, were utterly blind.
Only Lin Yan had foreknowledge.
So this next livestream will be another round of Lin Yan hogging the spotlight?
Many soul masters grumbled in frustration—but there was nothing they could do.
All they could do was comfort themselves by thinking: even if it shows future events, that doesn't mean the question will be about them.
After all, this time's question—despite being in a 15-day interval (usually focused on past events)—was about identifying mystical herbs.
So maybe, just maybe, next time they'd have a chance too.
…
As the livestream concluded, everyone gradually exited the room.
Heaven Dou Imperial Capital — within the Dugu residence.
"So those rare plants growing around my herb garden are called immortal-grade herbs? But those specific ones shown just now… they don't seem to be in my garden anymore."
"And that Tang San brat only named them—he didn't even explain what they do."
"These herbs must be immensely potent. I'd better not risk using them without knowing their effects!"
After exiting the livestream, Dugu Bo reflected on what he had seen, sighing in awe.
One thing was certain now—
The herbs in his garden were priceless.
Which made him more cautious than ever.
Especially after realizing that his old rival, that damn Chrysanthemum Douluo from Spirit Hall, seemed to know those herbs too.
And one of them had even been the original form of that man's martial spirit—Peculiar Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.
If that flower freak learned what Dugu Bo had in his garden, he would absolutely sic Spirit Hall on him!
…
Meanwhile—
In a subforest of the Star Dou Forest, near the border of the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires—
After exiting the livestream, Tang San was visibly excited.
Within the dim forest light, he summoned the reward.
Out came the recipe and a full bottle of Hundred Herb Pills.
"Xiao San, let me take a look at that recipe."
Beside him, Tang Hao's tone was low and serious.
"Here you go, Dad!"
Tang San handed it over respectfully.
"Hundred-year ginseng… Hundred-year violet ganoderma… Hundred-year polygonum multiflorum…"
As he read through the list of ingredients, Tang Hao frowned.
Sure, century-old herbs weren't as rare as millennium-grade ones or legendary ten-thousand-year specimens—
But they were still extremely valuable.
And what's worse—true to its name, the Hundred Herb Pill required over a hundred different herbs, each at least a hundred years old.
Collecting them all would be no small feat.
Let alone refining them into pills.
Only the wealthiest powers—like the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires, or factions like Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan—
Would even have a shot at gathering so many materials.
"This formula really lives up to its name—over a hundred herbs, each with over a century of maturity. Just gathering them will be a challenge."
"It won't be of much use to us in the short term."
Tang Hao shook his head and handed the recipe back to Tang San to keep.
"Alright, Xiao San, go ahead and take the pill. Use it to reach Soul Grandmaster as soon as you can."
"Mm."
Tang San nodded seriously and stored the recipe into his Twenty-Four Moonlight Bridges belt—
A gift from Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang when he accepted Tang San as a disciple.
But just as Tang San was about to store the Hundred Herb Pills as well—
Grandmaster stepped forward with an awkward expression, cleared his throat, and spoke up.
"Xiao San, ah… we haven't taken a look at those pills yet, have we?"
As he spoke, Yu Xiaogang's eyes drifted longingly to the bottle of pills, unable to hide the desire in his gaze.
This wasn't the same Grandmaster as in the original story.
In the original timeline, without the miraculous livestream to change his fate—
Yu Xiaogang had long given up on proving himself, and after six years of guiding Tang San, had developed true affection for him.
So when Tang San returned from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and offered him a Nine-Grade Purple Zhi, he had refused out of selflessness.
But now—
Having witnessed the livestream's power to defy fate, Yu Xiaogang's old ambition to prove himself had rekindled.
Sure, he knew his limitations—and after seeing his glorious "future," he had made the practical choice to train Tang San and rely on him for fame.
But emotionally, he hadn't yet developed a strong bond with the boy.
He still viewed Tang San more as an investment.
So when he saw Tang San receive a bottle of Hundred Herb Pills—capable of boosting soul power all the way to Soul Elder—
Yu Xiaogang couldn't hold back.
A whole bottle might be more than Tang San even needs—he's already a soul master. Surely one pill wouldn't hurt?
And maybe, just maybe, it could help me finally become a Soul Elder…
That had been his dream for years.
As for whether Tang San would share—
Yu Xiaogang was confident.
He knew how to read people.
Hadn't Tang San said "One day a teacher, a father for life"?
With that kind of loyalty, surely his request wouldn't be denied.
But as Tang San looked into his teacher's eyes—pretending to be calm, but full of burning desire—
He realized exactly what was happening.
So this so-called teacher wants one of my pills, huh?
