Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 130 The Fruit of Life

"Even evil spirit masters can be good people..." Gu You had barely finished speaking when he was met with a sarcastic remark from Le Zhengyu.

"Our Holy Family has been studying evil spirit masters for countless years, and we've encountered quite a few kind-hearted ones. We understand them better than you do. Hearts can change, an eternal law, especially for evil spirit masters. This infamous name has been around for ten thousand years. Once you're labeled as an evil spirit master, you can never escape it. Social ostracism, federal warrants... do you dare say their hearts won't change under these circumstances? It's only thanks to Shrek Academy protecting her, otherwise, she would have been taken back for trial as well."

Gu You didn't say anything more, but instead patted Yue Zhengyu on the shoulder.

That's just how the world is. What you think is right, others think is wrong; what you think is wrong, others think is right. It's unpredictable!

Le Zhengyu strode away.

"Ugh, I can't even speak because my face is so swollen."

Gu You simply tapped Xie Xie's forehead with his finger, and Xie Xie's swollen face returned to its original appearance.

"Would you dare to do it again?"

"I won't do it again, I won't do it again, boss, I know I was wrong."

This farce has come to an end, but Gu You still feels a bit unsatisfied. Let's have some more fun, he's so boring.

Back at the college, back in their luxurious work-study dormitory, thankfully some high-tech furniture that Gu You had bought had been used to make it look less dilapidated and shabby, but none of the four of them felt sleepy.

Gu You combed his white hair, which looked strangely beautiful, and he almost didn't want to change his hair color back to what it used to be.

However, his blood told him that if he didn't absorb more life energy, even if he were a god, something bad would happen.

"Boss, do you think there's some secret about us work-study students? Didn't you cultivate in the inner courtyard before? Are there any rumors about that? In the cafeteria, when people heard that we were work-study students, they kept their distance and even seemed a little afraid. That red-haired girl just now also said she was a work-study student. Should we go find the other work-study students to find out more?" Xie Xie asked Gu You in a low voice.

"Don't think so much. All the secrets come from within yourself and will eventually be revealed by you." Gu You sat down, meditating and cultivating.

"Alright." Xie Xie said helplessly, turning to look at Xu Xiaoyan across from him. She hadn't rested yet, so the luxurious curtains weren't up.

"Why are you, a guy, so gossipy? And so perverted!" In return, Xu Xiaoyan rolled her eyes at her.

Gu Yue stood up, casually turned the switch, and the curtain closed.

Xie Xie suddenly covered his head with the pillow and fell asleep.

The spiritual world

When Gu You arrived in front of the Seed of Life, it was more like a Tree of Life than a Seed of Life. It was underwater and appeared to be more than ten meters tall, with life energy spreading to the surroundings and even the entire world.

The entire created ocean and seawater, in its central area, was dyed a dark green, not by algae or other seaweed, but by a rich, vibrant life force.

Several small fish swam by, and everything was thriving. The ecosystem had begun to cycle, and this world could even create life on its own.

Gu You felt a surge of joy. Seeing this world prosper was like watching his own child, filling him with a profound sense of accomplishment.

He plucked a fruit of life from the Tree of Life. This thing was extremely precious. The young Tree of Life had only produced two fruits, and they were still in their initial stages and not yet mature.

Even if it's not fully mature, it can still provide users with an additional six months of lifespan.

Gu You carefully wiped the surface of the fruit. Six months of lifespan seemed very short, but for some aging Title Douluo, it was a true treasure. Some high-ranking officials of the Federation had been searching for spiritual medicines and treasures to extend lifespan in the mortal world for many years, but the things they obtained were not satisfactory. Although some auctions could also sell pills and the like that that extended lifespan, the increase was extremely rare. Sometimes, it was good if it could extend lifespan by three days.

Although on the surface he is the master of this world, Gu You still feels somewhat embarrassed to steal things from this world, especially the Tree of Life. It takes endless life force to condense a single tree, and it takes a "few" hundred years to mature. It can be said that being able to eat one is an absolute honor.

Despite saying all that, Gu You still needed to eat. If his life force was exhausted, this world would collapse. With that thought in mind, Gu You crunched down a bite.

Oh my, it smells so good...

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Xie Xie got up early. Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue were about the same age as him, while Gu You was in a state of high spirits. He had never been so energetic.

What's the first thing to do when you wake up in the morning? Of course, it's to eat breakfast and then quickly wash up.

The group then went to the Shrek Academy outer courtyard restaurant, and after eating using Gu You's contribution points, they went to accept today's mission with great enthusiasm.

Upon arriving at the Academic Affairs Office, the teacher casually dismissed Gu You and his companions, "You four, continue cleaning Lingbing Square. You did a good job yesterday. Keep up the good work today." The teacher didn't even bother to open his eyes.

Of course, Gu You couldn't do this simple task; his contribution points weren't for nothing. So he left it to Xie Xie and the others. Being a work-study student was indeed quite difficult; they had to take on a large amount of labor every day.

"Teacher, I'm handing in my assignment."

"Hmm, the blueprints are finished? That's pretty fast, Yuanen, your efficiency is getting higher and higher." The teacher opened his eyes for the first time and praised him, then took the identity card of the boy named Yuanen and added countless contribution points to it.

"Choose another task. Although you only need to accept one task per day according to the goal, earning more contribution points will help your future cultivation resources."

Yuan En quickly chose a mission to accept and then quietly left. Throughout the process, he only nodded slightly to Gu You and the other three when he left.

"Is he also a work-study student?" Xie Xie asked curiously, even though he already had the answer in his mind.

"Yes, it's a girl." Gu You said with a smile.

"Huh?! Boss, don't lie to me, he's clearly a boy." Xie Xie was stunned by Gu You's words.

"I'm not lying to you, it's a woman dressed as a man."

"Wow, what kind of people are these at Shrek Academy? They have such interesting hobbies. How did you figure it out?" Xie Xie really wanted to know how Gu You could tell that the person was a woman disguised as a man.

Gu You murmured, "I have one eye that can change the world..."
