It was apparent that the water bottle was not a disposable item. Tang Wulin passed the water bottle to Lan Fozi. She then looked toward the Holy Spirit Douluo standing by Tang Wulin and asked, Whos she?

Tang Wulin smiled. Shes my mother. He answered naturally which made Yali overjoyed to hear his response. She appeared as an old woman at present. Her face cracked into a smile which was filled with both mercy and kindness.

Lan Fozi had a change of countenance. An envious look flashed past her eyes. She quickly changed her unfriendly attitude toward Tang Wulin and spoke to Yali respectfully, Hello, auntie. Im sorry for being impolite earlier.

Yali shook her head and said, Its okay. You look like a nice girl. Why are you dressed as a man?

If Qiangu Dongfeng were in her place, he would not be able to tell Lan Fozis true gender either. However, Yali was the first recovery-type soul master in the world. She was familiar with the human bodys structures, its natural smell and all the sensory organs. There was no need for Tang Wulin to spill the beans since quite a few parts of Lan Fozis body already revealed she was a girl.

Lan Fozi had a change of countenance. She glared at Tang Wulin angrily because she did not realize she was being exposed by Yalis discerning eyes. She assumed that Tang Wulin told his mother about her. She bit her lower lip before she turned around and left after bowing to Yali as a mark of respect.

The corners of Yalis mouth cracked into a playful smile as she watched Lan Fozis departure. My incorrigible son! Youre truly a teaser. You left behind a trail of women wherever you went just like your godfather.

Huh? Tang Wulin looked at the Holy Spirit Douluo in bewilderment. Mother, wheres this coming from?

Yali chuckled. Cant you tell that the girl is being nice to you? Mother has been through this kind of experience before. If I cant even see that, then my hundred years of life has been wasted.

Tang Wulin spoke in astonishment, Hows that possible? Shes always disguised herself as a man. Moreover, I think theres something wrong with her sexual orientation. I think she likes girls. Perhaps, thats the reason why she took part in the Joust For A Spouse Festival. She keeps telling me how much she loves Gu Yue. How on earth is that possible? Youve misjudged, mother.

Yali spoke with a slight helplessness, It appears youre still quite naive. Back then, your godfather would probably have seen through her. I can tell that she has feelings for you just by looking at her gaze whenever she looks at you. Perhaps, she herself is unaware that shes attracted to you. Although I dont know what happened between the both of you, she came asking for water to be sent to you immediately after the competition. Tell me, what kind of friend does that? I dont think your comrades from the Shrek Seven Monsters are even that attentive. Moreover, she didnt come back for her water bottle as she felt a little unwilling to leave you. She wanted to come back to check on you. More importantly, I can feel her strong aura on the bottle. It has been used for a period of time at the very least. Giving a personal belonging to someone of an opposite gender and being natural about it. Please tell Mother, is it normal?

Tang Wulin was being questioned by the Holy Spirit Douluo until he was speechless. He found it hard to imagine that such a situation would happen. It was truly because he had never regarded Lan Fozi as a girl all this while. Moreover, he had always assumed that Lan Fozi treated him with hostility!

Thats impossible, Mother. You should know that I only love Gu Yue alone. He shook his head profusely with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

Hehe. Gu Yuena is truly blessed to have your unreserved belief in her and your persistence. Im envious! If your godfather was as resolute as you back then, he wouldnt have so many disputes. Youre stronger than him because youve never given any girl the chance for a misunderstanding. Its a good thing and I hope that youll continue to uphold this virtue.

What do you mean by hope? The corner of Tang Wulins lips twitched once.

The Holy Spirit Douluo spoke as if she was insinuating something else, There are truly too many temptations in this world!

Tang Wulin stabilized his physical condition before he left the coliseum together with the Holy Spirit Douluo. They were not supposed to be together so as not to expose their identities. However, the Holy Spirit Douluo was concerned with Tang Wulins safety. So, she accompanied him all the way to the entrance of the Blacksmiths Association.

Meanwhile, a limousine had stopped in front of the Blacksmiths Association. The dark blue limousine opened its coach doors. A man dressed in butler attire came out of the car and made an inviting gesture toward Yali.

Yali got into the car with a smile. The car door closed. It then left silently.

I feel at ease seeing that youre so happy, said a man in the car. He was smiling.

Yes! Its been a long time since Ive been so happy. A person must always have hope. When one is hopeful, one will naturally have a brighter outlook. When one is young, its easy to feel discontented all the time since discontentment will motivate one to pursue knowledge. On the other hand, when one gets older, one will wish to settle down to protect whats existing and feel the happiness which is most precious. One will not mind living a mediocre life everyday. On the contrary, one will take delight in doing so.

Its good that youve such an outlook. The man heaved a sigh softly. His gaze seemed to have lost focus.

Yali smiled and said, Sometimes, I feel Heaven has been real good to me. Id a good husband like Brother Ming and we had spent decades living together happily. Whats there to be discontented about? He took me to see every exciting thing in this world. When he encountered the great catastrophe in old age, I was supposed to leave this world together with him. I feel so blessed to have such an outstanding son that I can enjoy the happiness of having a family at old age. Perhaps, this is the greatest blessing that Heaven can give me. Im truly very happy. Ill use the remainder of my life to protect this happiness.

The man looked toward Yali in slight astonishment. He looked at her smile and felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart. He wished to say something but no words came out of his mouth.

I thought you were going to treat me to a scrumptious meal of meatballs? Its been a long time since Ive had any. Lets go now. Yali smiled sweetly. Even though she looked old, she still managed to make the mans heart flutter. It felt like the old days.

A stream of dazzling radiance shone upon his sea of spirit akin to the sun blazing forth in a cloudy sky. Tang Wulin had lost count of the time since he was in meditation. He clearly felt the sublimation of his sea of spirit.

The sublimation did not feel as glorious. Rather, it felt like a qualitative change.

Even Tang Wulin had not expected such a change would occur when his spiritual power was cultivated to the Spirit Domain realm.

At present, a layer of seven-colored radiance was added to the initial golden color of the immense spiritual power in his sea of spirit. Although it was just a very thin layer, it carried a mysterious texture.

The seven-colored radiance was left in his sea of spirit after the earlier strike. It was present albeit in a minute amount.

Tang Wulin had absorbed the energy of elemental calamity into his body. Most of the power of the law was converted to the Thunderclap Nether Vine. It was very efficient and quick at absorbing ordinary lightning. On the other hand, it was slow in absorbing the seven-colored lightning.

The rest of Tang Wulins spirit souls attempted to absorb too. However, their absorption speeds were similarly slow. Just as Tang Wulin himself relied on using the elemental lightning to refine his body, he was incapable of absorbing it directly.

Yet, there were some small changes. The most peculiar change was that the power of the law had entered his spiritual world spontaneously. Moreover, it had fused with his sea of spirit much to his surprise. The texture of his sea of spirit felt different now. Even though Tang Wulin had no idea as to the extent of his elevation, it was undoubtedly an elevation.

The elemental lightning which was stored inside his body had already vanished. A portion was unleashed during the two consecutive battles earlier, while the other portion was now stored in his sea of spirit.
