...
"Wipe it off. As the dignified Pavilion Master, if those students outside saw you looking like this, the reputation of Moon Pavilion would probably be truly ruined."
Tang Yuehua did not speak, silently grabbing a towel and vigorously wiping away the traces on her face.
She wiped very hard, as if wanting to wipe away that sense of shame along with it.
Not until her cheeks were rubbed red and the stains on her hair were carefully cleaned did she take a deep breath, forcing herself to regain a trace of composure.
Luo Nan leaned against the wide desk, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then looked at Yuehua.
"I've always had a question."
Luo Nan exhaled a ring of smoke, suddenly speaking up to break the silence.
"With the foundation of your Clear Sky Sect, even if you forcefully piled up Heaven And Earth Treasure, you could still pile up a Spirit Elder or Spirit Ancestor."
"Why are you still stuck at level nine even now? What on earth went wrong with your Spirit?"
Hearing Luo Nan mention her Spirit, Tang Yuehua's hand wiping her hair paused slightly, and her expression instantly darkened.
For anyone born from the number one Sect in the world, being unable to break through to level ten for a lifetime was an unspeakable pain.
"My Spirit has mutated."
Tang Yuehua put down the towel.
"It's called the Ruyi Ring, an extremely rare Domain-type Spirit."
"It bestowed upon me an innate Domain called the Noble Circle."
"A Domain?"
Luo Nan narrowed his eyes slightly.
On Douluo Continent, Spirits that came with a Domain upon Awakening were without exception the absolute best of the best, such as the Seraphim of Spirit Hall.
His Golden Sacred Dragon and Dark Demon Dragon did not come with their own Domains.
"Yes, a Domain."
"But this is a cursed Domain."
"While the Ruyi Ring bestowed the Domain upon me, it also completely locked away the upper limit of my Soul Power."
"No matter how I Cultivate, my Soul Power will forever stay at level nine, unable to cross the threshold of level ten."
"Naturally, I'm unable to absorb a spirit ring and become a true Spirit Master."
Speaking up to this point, a flash of despair crossed Tang Yuehua's eyes.
"When my father was alive, he searched the world for famous doctors and even spared no expense from the Sect's foundation to find countless precious herbs for me that strengthen the constitution and nourish the Origin."
"My eldest brother and second brother also tried every possible method to help me break through these shackles, but all to no avail."
"That shackle is like it's branded deep within the Soul, indestructible."
Having listened to Tang Yuehua's account, Luo Nan fell into silence.
He flicked the ash off his cigarette, and his brain began to spin rapidly.
The mutation of the Ruyi Ring was actually an extremely extreme conservation of energy.
It completely transformed the potential that should have been used to elevate Soul Power into that special Domain.
Wanting to break the shackle brought by this mutation, ordinary herbs and external force infusion were naturally useless.
It was necessary to fundamentally reshape her Spirit Origin and wash the tendons and cleanse the marrow!
On Douluo Continent, the only thing capable of accomplishing this was an Immortal Plant!
In Luo Nan's mind, the Sunset Forest instantly surfaced—the precious land occupied by Poison Douluo Dugu Bo: the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!
Countless Immortal Plants that plundered the fortune of heaven and earth grew there. For instance, that narcissus jade muscle bone capable of strengthening the constitution, nourishing the Origin, and undergoing a complete rebirth.
Or the Velvet Tulip capable of washing away Impurities and elevating the Spirit quality.
As long as one could obtain a suitable Immortal Plant for Tang Yuehua from among them, it would definitely help her break through the level nine shackles, smoothly reach level ten, and thereby acquire her first spirit ring!
However, the periphery of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had the Jade Phosphorus Poison Formation set up by Dugu Bo, and Dugu Bo himself was even a ninety-first-rank Titled Douluo.
With Luo Nan's current strength, a Spirit Douluo was naturally no match for him, and he could even fight a Titled Douluo.
But he would be facing Poison Douluo Dugu Bo; Dugu Bo was adept at using poison and was equally vindictive.
If he couldn't be convinced all at once, there would likely be quite a bit of subsequent trouble.
"I must wait until I obtain my eighth spirit ring and advance to a Spirit Douluo before I have a hundred percent certainty to make a trip to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."
Luo Nan calculated inwardly.
Once he possessed a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, let alone Dugu Bo, even facing a Super Douluo above level ninety-five, he would still have the strength to fight!
Thinking of this, Luo Nan stubbed out his cigarette butt, raised his head to look at Tang Yuehua, and a confident smile hooked the corner of his mouth.
"Don't be so desperate. Problems that your Clear Sky Sect cannot solve don't mean I can't solve them either."
"I should have a way to resolve the flaws in your Spirit, allowing you to smoothly break through to level ten and become a true Spirit Master."
As soon as these words were spoken, Tang Yuehua was stunned for a moment, and subsequently, a trace of undisguised sneering surfaced on her cold and aloof face.
"Luo Nan, I admit that your strength is very strong, your talent is also extremely high, and you can even awe all heroes with the cultivation of a Spirit Saint."
Tang Yuehua sneered, her tone extremely proud.
"But aren't you a bit too arrogant! My Clear Sky Sect has been passed down for hundreds of years, and its foundation is unfathomable."
"My father is a Titled Douluo of over level ninety, and within the Sect there are even numerous Elders."
"Problems that they exhausted the strength of the entire Sect and spent over a dozen years failing to solve, what makes you, a Loose Cultivator with no background at all, say you can solve them?"
In Tang Yuehua's view, Luo Nan's words were simply a fantasy, talking irresponsibly just to show off his abilities in front of her.
Seeing Tang Yuehua's completely disbelief-filled appearance, Luo Nan was not angry either.
With his arms crossed over his chest, he sized up Tang Yuehua with great interest, a cunning light flickering in his eyes.
"Since you are so certain I can't solve it, how about we make a bet?" Luo Nan looked at her provocatively.
"A bet? What are we betting on?" Tang Yuehua frowned, a hint of vigilance rising in her heart.
Luo Nan's gaze once again fell upon Tang Yuehua's tender and tempting red lips, and his eyes turned somewhat playful:
"Let's bet on whether I can help you break the level nine shackles within a year and allow you to successfully absorb your first spirit ring. If I win..."
Luo Nan paused, intentionally lowering his voice, and said with a hint of wicked smile: "If I win, next time, you'll have to obediently open your mouth, and I'll treat you to yogurt. How about it?"
Hearing the three words 'treat you to yogurt', Tang Yuehua was stunned at first.
Then recalling the obscene actions Luo Nan had done to her in the office just now, she instantly understood what those three words meant.
"You... vulgar!" Tang Yuehua trembled all over with anger, pointing at Luo Nan's nose and scolding.
"What? The dignified Young Miss of the Clear Sky Sect doesn't even have this bit of guts? Or are you saying that deep down you actually feel I can really cure you, so you're afraid of losing?"
Luo Nan directly used a provoking method.
"Afraid of losing? What a joke!"
Tang Yuehua was infuriated by Luo Nan's attitude. She took a deep breath, suppressed the shame and anger in her heart, and looked coldly at Luo Nan.
"Fine! I'll bet with you! But what if you lose?"
"If I lose, name your conditions."
