Chapter 70 Upon returning...
When Li Muyang finished everything and came out of the dormitory toilet...
"Old Li, are you constipated? Don't use your phone while on the toilet! Look, you even made Old Lu go to another dorm to use the toilet." Wang Yifei earnestly lectured Li Muyang: "Squatting on the toilet for too long can easily cause loss of appetite, dizziness, numbness in the lower limbs, increased flatulence, and anal congestion. You're so young, you need to be careful about your health, or you'll regret it when you're old."
Lu Xiaobo rolled his eyes and complained, "Exactly! You don't have to sit on the toilet for half an hour just because you're on your phone, do you? And you didn't even respond when I called you! I had to go to the toilet next door."
Fan Zichen handed over a banana: "Want one? It'll help with bowel movements~"
Li Muyang chuckled and scratched his head: "No, no, you enjoy it yourself. Sorry~ I was squatting down just now, and suddenly it was like a revelation! I had an epiphany! And then I accidentally broke through!"
"Cut!" x3
The three of them curled their lip in disdain. "You can't even come up with a better excuse to make up a lie."
Can you really break through limitations while squatting on the toilet? Are you really seeking inspiration in the bathroom?
Li Muyang remained silent, or rather, let the facts speak for themselves, as the golden core flew out from his dantian.
The three of them Σ(?д?|||)??: Huh?! Holy crap! Golden Core? Really?!
Wang Yifei immediately slammed his hand on the table and stood up straight: "My goodness! Old Li, you really broke through to the Golden Core stage!"
Well, as the dormitory head, Wang Yifei used to be the only Golden Core cultivator in the dormitory, but not anymore.
Lu Xiaobo and Fan Zichen were also shocked! They agreed to slack off together! You secretly broke through to a higher level while you were in the bathroom? Could it be that there's some special buff in the bathroom?
The two exchanged a glance, then realized what was happening and excitedly shouted together, "Let's go out to eat! Old Li broke through to the Golden Core stage! He's treating us!"
Li Muyang (???): "When did I... Never mind, let's go out to eat! Let's go! It's on me!"
Without further ado, the four of them packed their things, dropped off Ma Ge and the others, as well as Shennong Beast and Xiaobai at the school's breeding farm, and then headed straight for the shopping mall restaurant outside the school!
Shennong Beast and Little White (????): ...
After a sumptuous dinner.
While picking his teeth, Li Muyang casually remarked, "It's been a long time since I've had such a lavish meal."
"Huh? Didn't we just go out last Saturday?" Wang Yifei asked blankly, "It's only Tuesday today."
Li Muyang blushed: "Ahem, it's been a week, rounded up. A week is long enough, isn't it?"
Damn it, I've been over a year over there and almost forgot that only a few seconds have passed in my own world. I haven't adjusted to the time difference yet.
Although the three sensed something was amiss, they didn't press the matter further. Instead, they asked Li Muyang what it felt like to break through to the Golden Core stage, hoping to find some inspiration.
Who told Fan Zichen and Lu Xiaobo to be completely clueless about condensing the Golden Core?
Even Wang Yifei was very curious about Li Muyang breaking through to the Golden Core stage in the toilet. What was the principle behind it?
Li Muyang was generous with his explanation of his thought process regarding this issue. As for the Feng Lingyu Xiu martial arts system, he only briefly mentioned it, saying that he would discuss it in more detail after returning to his dormitory.
The three of them understood that this kind of secretive teaching content definitely couldn't be done outside; it wouldn't be safe, and there were always eavesdroppers. The dormitory could be protected by a special barrier, just to be on the safe side.
Just as the four were about to return to school, Li Muyang spotted a familiar face ahead and greeted him:
"Hey? Uncle Liu?"
"Muyang? You... Oh! You're out having dinner with your classmates!" Liu Liqun, the president of the Beast Tamer Association, had a genuine smile on his face when he saw Li Muyang, a smile that was usually formal. He greeted him with a cheerful smile.
After the appearance of the spirit beast gourd, Liu Liqun, who was originally an ordinary president of the Beast Tamer Association, has now become the object of others' flattery. For various reasons, a lot of social engagements have made Liu Liqun a little irritable.
With Li Muyang's simple explanation—that he was his mother's friend, without mentioning Liu Liqun's identity—his roommates politely greeted him.
Although Liu Liqun looked rather fierce the last time I saw him, he was dressed in a suit and tie today. Coupled with his wild and tough appearance, he exuded a strong sense of intimidation! Even if my roommates didn't know him, they all knew that this uncle was no ordinary person!
They're college students now, so they understand social etiquette to some extent.
"...Muyang, your mother is here too, should we go and say hello?" Liu Liqun pointed to the private room where he was eating.
Li Muyang blinked, just about to refuse, when he saw his mother, Xiao Xuanyan, come out.
"Mom!" For some reason, Li Muyang felt a little guilty, and immediately stood at attention when he saw his mother.
Li Ma had come over with a smile, but her smile suddenly froze halfway there. Her eyes narrowed, and she quickened her pace to reach Li Muyang.
Li Muyang felt even more guilty at his mother's sudden change in attitude and forced a smile.
Li's mother didn't speak, but reached out and touched the back of Li Muyang's head. Li Muyang felt a surge of divine consciousness sweep over his entire body, from the inside out... He trembled and dared not speak.
After examining Li Muyang's body, Li's mother's expression was noticeably meaningful. However, out of respect for Li Muyang in public, she didn't say much. She just smiled and turned to say something to Liu Liqun, then greeted Li Muyang's three roommates.
"The three of you meet again! Thank you for taking good care of my son, Muyang."
"No, no, Auntie, you're too kind. It's Brother Li who takes care of us all the time, and he cooks all the meals every day," Wang Yifei hurriedly waved his hand modestly. Yes, that's true, and the other two quickly nodded in agreement.
They must have all met Li Ma before, but the Li Ma they usually met was not as imposing and powerful as she was today. In addition, even someone like Liu Liqun was so polite to Li Ma, so they were a little nervous for a moment.
Upon hearing the three men's attitude, Li Ma covered her mouth and chuckled softly before saying, "Let me borrow my son Muyang for a while. I have something to ask him. Please wait a moment!"
Li Muyang (ー△ー；): Oh no, I've been caught! I just got back and I've already been discovered!
He subtly signaled to the three of them with his eyes, urging them to save them!
Unfortunately, under the oppressive aura of Li Ma, the three who clearly sensed something was wrong certainly wouldn't dare disturb her at this moment. They obediently nodded, indicating that it was fine. "Auntie! You can pack whatever you want!"
Then, one by one, under Liu Liqun's guidance, they went to the private room where they were eating to broaden their horizons—a rare opportunity!
Only Li Muyang remained, locked in place by his mother's aura and divine sense.
Just as they were about to do something, Li Ma raised her hand and erected a barrier, saying in a sinister tone, "If you dare to run away by any means, don't acknowledge me as your biological mother anymore!"
Li Muyang froze, forcing a wry smile as he said, "Mom, please don't do this, I'm scared~"
"Scared? I didn't see that. The kid's all grown up, he's got secrets now, and he even dares to run off by himself?" Li Ma launched into a barrage of accusations, going from a strong, independent woman to a complaining wife: "Without a sound, we've only been apart for a few days, and our son has inexplicably grown a year older... Heh heh heh, does he think his mother wouldn't recognize him? Next time, will he be older than me?"
As she finished speaking, Li Ma's tone became more forceful. Although her voice wasn't loud, it sent a chill down Li Muyang's spine.
I was careless! I forgot that my mother isn't just anyone! She's a peak Nascent Soul cultivator! A short time wouldn't be so bad, but I've inexplicably aged a whole year this time! She'll definitely recognize me!
Seeing her son's guilty look, Li Ma's worry and tension intensified. She said coldly, "Tell me, which organization? The Main God Space? The Temple of Reincarnation? Or some Transmigrator Association? Surely it's not those lunatics from the Church of Truth?"
Li Muyang∑(￣□￣；): "WC! Mom! Are you serious? This can't all be true, can it?"
Li Ma snorted coldly: "It doesn't seem like any of them? Could it be that a new one has appeared?"
Li Muyang asked, somewhat shocked, "Mom, tell me the truth, are these organizations problematic? Is that why you're so nervous?"
Li Ma glared angrily with her phoenix eyes: "What do you think? None of these organizations are any good!"
"The Main God Space captures the most heinous criminals from various countries to serve as free labor, and it's all under the coercive policy. If they can't complete the mission, they're eliminated. The problem is, these people are sent back during the off-duty periods! With things from other worlds, these bastards are causing who knows how much trouble they'll get into!"
"The Temple of Reincarnation is similar, except that the people inside are a much more mixed bag, with all sorts of people! This also leads to a greater number of perverts inside! The good people are genuinely good, and the bad people are truly wicked without any bottom line! But those who can survive inside are all very strong!"
"And that Transmigrator Association! It's a bunch of self-proclaimed geniuses who think they're the chosen ones of heaven! They like to look down on people! They also have a weird aura about them, and they recruit followers everywhere! They can easily cause all sorts of trouble... But thankfully, these guys are arrogant as they are, they have principles, at least they won't actively seek trouble, and since there are few of them, their attitude towards things they accept is actually quite friendly."
When she got to the last one, Li Ma's expression was one of utter disgust and anger: "The most disgusting thing is that Church of Truth! A bunch of blatant lunatics! If they were really pursuing the truth, that would be one thing! But they're just a bunch of fanatical believers infected by the power of an evil god from another world! They'll do anything to get the evil god's attention!"
Li Muyang was sweating profusely as he listened. Good heavens, he had no idea that his own world was so rich!
He only knew that there were spatial portals to other worlds, but he had never seen one. He also knew that there were all kinds of secret realms, but he had never witnessed them with his own eyes.
I never expected there to be such bizarre organizations! And they're even at the level of countless worlds!
Suddenly, I felt like a husky had wandered into a wolf's den.
Actually, he was the wolf who broke into the husky's den...
