--- Chapter 276 ---

The Imperial Demon Palace's Underground.

Two people are focusing on a shining armguard. At first glance, one could tell this arm guard is extraordinary. It possesses a remarkable demonic aura, making one breathe rise sharply just by looking at it.

"S-Success," said Thalia with beads of sweat on her forehead.

Yu Long stared at the shiny dark blue armguard with a hexagonal shell-like texture and commented, "Good, you have mastered elementary essence control after experimenting with so many Essence Spheres."

"Your talent is much better than I thought."

Thalia merely smiled after hearing Yu Long's praise. She knew she wasted so many resources only to grasp the elementary level of essence control, even with Yu Long's guidance.

She wasn't surprised she could make so much progress. If Thalia couldn't achieve this much with Yu Long's guidance and resources, she'd rather be a pig.

She felt there was nothing to be proud of here.

Yu Long picked up the armguard and observed it briefly, "Let's call this Turtle Guard. It could offset life-threatening attacks three times and even heal its wielder with pure light-water energy."

"I will follow Godfather's suggestion," Thalia answered, agreeing with Yu Long's given name for her tool. She glanced at her back and saw a small pile of Demonic Weapons.

The armguard is just one of many.

Thalia actually felt helpless inside. To her, all these Demonic Weapons are treasures and her lifeline. Yet to Yu Long, they are nothing but trash to play with and help increase her skill.

No wonder people looked for Kaiju Maker's Essence Spheres. They defied the very law of the universe.

A sudden question flashed in Thalia's mind, 'If Godfather's reincarnation was already this strong, I wonder how strong he was at his peak?'

Yu Long didn't notice Thalia's eyes flashing with wonders. He pondered the next step he must take to teach her instead.

"Well, that's enough for now, I guess." After thinking about it, Yu Long decided to give Thalia time off. "Go take a shower, Thalia. A girl should maintain her hygiene."

Thalia opened her mouth wordlessly. She sighed, "Godfather, you sound like my father just now."

"Is that supposed to be a bad thing? I'm taking you under my roof, after all." Yu Long raised his eyebrows. He only does the bare minimum.

"No, not really." Thalia couldn't help but grin. She had been running away from the Church of Khaos since her father's death.

Now that Yu Long is here, Thalia can relax and enjoy her free time with her Godfather. At the very least, she didn't have to worry about the looming danger above her head.

"Silly girl." Yu Long flicked Thalia's forehead, making her squat on the ground in pain. "Go take a shower and eat something filling."

"We will continue after you recover your mental strength."

Thalia nodded and returned to the surface, walking up the stairs.

Yu Long watched Thalia's back disappearing and shook his head, "I didn't expect myself to be a nanny. But this wasn't a bad experience considering I'd have children in the future."

He flipped his left hand, and a vial of Thalia's blood appeared.

He watched them from the hall and shook his head. He didn't want to bother them and went to visit Chu Yuechan.

Arriving at Chu Yuechan's room, Yu Long stopped his steps. He peeked inside and sighed in amazement because he could feel an immense sword intent from the other side of the door.

Although the sword's intent is far from being able to injure, Yu Long still found it impressive. If Chu Yuechan could master it, she might become the number one sword master in the Primal Chaos Dimension.

Thinking about it, Yu Long hoped this little thought would come true soon.

Yu Long kept walking and visited Huan Caiyi's room this time. For some reason, he could hear her groaning inside.

"Hmm?" Yu Long didn't have a hobby of eavesdropping. His senses are just that sharp.

He briefly scanned Huan Caiyi's room and found her meditating inside using the Sky Demon Sutra. Due to the intense pressure her brain must endure, her body consumes energy faster than fighting.

Huan Caiyi's body temperature rose rapidly, burning the precious rug under her.

Yu Long didn't step in because the Wind Spirit had appeared and assisted Huan Caiyi by blowing a cold breeze to lower her body temperature.

Sure enough, Huan Caiyi opened her eyes and looked refreshed. There is a faint afterglow on her beautiful face.

"Who is there?" Huan Caiyi stared at the door.

Yu Long wryly smiled, "It's me."

"Yu Long? Come in." Huan Caiyi was surprised to find Yu Long was looking for her.

Yu Long opened the door and walked inside.

Huan Caiyi wiped her sweat and asked, "Do you need something?"

"I was just strolling around." Yu Long answered honestly. "How much progress have you made with the Sky Demon Sutra?"

Huan Caiyi felt Yu Long was diverting the topic. She rubbed her forehead and answered, "I've reached the first two levels."

Yu Long's eyes lit up, "You're more talented than I thought, Caiyi."

"Is that so?" Huan Caiyi giggled.

"But I'm nothing compared to you."

"Tell me, Yu Long. How does it feel to be the strongest?"

Yu Long was stunned by Huan Caiyi's question and calmly waved his hand. "Strongest?"

"No, I didn't dare to claim such a title."

"I'm strong. But I'm not the strongest."

Huan Caiyi smiled faintly, "I see..."

"Would you like to talk about mundane things with me?"

"Well, I have free time to spare." Yu Long answered smoothly.
