The talent displayed by Wang Teng was exceedingly rare. If she didn’t seize the opportunity today, she doubted she would ever encounter such a genius again.

As prodigies of the five major families, both she and Yizang Xinnuo held themselves to high standards, rarely finding young talents worthy of their attention. Now that one had appeared, she couldn’t bear to let him slip away.

Moreover, the image of Wang Teng defeating a universe-stage powerhouse and confronting an eternal-stage ruler left a profound impression on her. She found it hard to forget this man.

Once one has seen a true dragon, how could they willingly consort with a serpent?

In that instant, Shouzang Caiyun’s mind raced with various thoughts. Unable to contain herself, she smiled and spoke, “What Xinnuo said is true. You needn’t worry. We are not unreasonable people. The past is the past.”

Wang Teng was somewhat surprised by their response but shook his head inwardly. He found himself less composed than the two women, which amused him. He smiled and said, “Since both of you say so, if I continue to dwell on this matter, I’ll appear petty.”

“That’s settled then!” Yizang Xinnuo smiled softly.

Before long, the three returned to Yizang Xinnuos’ estate.

“Wang Teng, if you need anything, don’t hesitate to contact us. We’ll get it for you,” Yizang Xinnuo said solemnly.

She observed the scars and bloodstains on Wang Teng’s body with concern. Those wounds were severe!

They didn’t know how Wang Teng managed to withstand the attacks of the universe-stage and eternal-stage rulers.

“Alright, I won’t hesitate if I need anything,” Wang Teng nodded, returning to the room he had occupied before, preparing to seclude himself.

Watching Wang Teng’s departing figure, Yizang Xinnuo suddenly felt a pang of pity.

Facing such formidable adversaries, he must have been struggling all along. Only now was he showing signs of fatigue.

“Stop looking. The door is closed!” Shouzang Caiyun suddenly waved her hand in front of her and said with a smile.

Yizang Xinnuo averted her gaze, her expression returning to neutrality. She asked, “Aren’t you going home, Sister Caiyun?”

“Alright, you actually want to chase me away. Do you want to be alone with him?” Shouzang Caiyun glared and said teasingly.

“That’s right.” Yizang Xinnuo nodded.

Shouzang Caiyun was momentarily stunned, looking at her incredulously. Did she just admit to that?

Was she being that straightforward?

Was she not planning to hide anymore?

Suddenly, Shouzang Caiyun narrowed her eyes.

Yizang Xinnuo met her gaze without backing down.

The two stood at Wang Teng’s door, crackling with silent tension, their gazes seemingly capable of sparking off an invisible duel.

Inside the room, Wang Teng, weary but resolute, swept his spiritual power outward, sensing the situation outside the door. He frowned, his expression turning somewhat peculiar.

“What are those two women up to?”

Fortunately, they departed soon.

Wang Teng shook his head, silently lamenting the complexities of women, and ceased to pay attention. He used his spiritual power to create a protective barrier enveloping the entire room, preventing any disturbance.

He was too exhausted to think about anything else. He needed to take some pills first.

He retrieved a jade bottle from his space ring, containing grandmaster-level healing pills, and poured them all into his mouth.

Though not as potent as the supreme-rank grandmaster-level healing pills Elder Hui gave to the Heishan Royal Clan, Wang Teng had them in abundance.

If anyone saw him ingesting so many pills, they’d probably scold him for being extravagant.

Did he think grandmaster-level pills were candies?

In an instant, over a dozen grandmaster-level pills transformed into warm currents coursing through Wang Teng’s body.

He closed his eyes, rapidly absorbing and assimilating the medicinal properties of the pills to repair his bodily injuries.

Half of his physical injuries stemmed from Elder Hui’s oppression, while the other half resulted from his own eruption of power.

Breaking through to the limit of the cosmos stage wasn’t easy and inevitably caused damage to his body.

This was a strategy that would leave both parties severely wounded

While Wang Teng’s physique was already incredibly robust, the kind of power he unleashed exceeded the limits his body could bear, resulting in injuries.

If it were an ordinary warrior’s body, using such power would likely cause it to burst open on the spot, unleashing a rain of blood.

Just the thought of such a scene made Wang Teng shudder involuntarily, filled with lingering fear.

At this moment, feeling the injuries within his body, Wang Teng realized the extent of the damage that power had inflicted upon his physical form.

Almost every inch of his muscles, meridians, membranes, and even his bones had been torn apart. There were even fine cracks appearing in his bones.

Fortunately, Wang Teng possessed the dark talent’s Black Bone talent, which endowed his bones with much greater strength than an ordinary person’s. Coupled with the modifications and enhancements from the Ancient God’s Body, his bones had not completely shattered.

As the medicinal properties of the pills circulated through his body, the injuries within Wang Teng began to slowly heal. Even the cracks on his bones were gradually closing.

The scars on his body were the simplest matter and were completely healed in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace of scars.

Three days passed quickly, and Wang Teng slowly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flickering within them.

“Sigh!”
