222 The Good-For-Nothing Prince 5

In Black Tortoise Country, when the princes reach adulthood, they would have to come out and establish themselves.

At that moment, within the Sixth Prince's estate, Gu Ruoyun got someone to heat up some water then threw some medicinal herbs into the bathtub. She then instructed the fatty, "After a while, take a bath in this. You must stay in the tub for three hours before you can come out. Let me tell you this, these medicinal herbs are volatile in nature but they can draw out some of the toxins from your body. I need to first detoxify you before we can break the fat! If you can't stand it, just think about your tribulations all these years and the meat that you love to eat. Then you should be able to endure it…"

Having said that, she immediately walked out, not giving the Sixth Prince a chance to ask any questions.

As she closed the room's door, a wailing sound like a pig being slaughtered echoed from the room.

Outside the room, a huddled group of maidservants was whispering amongst themselves as they glanced at the tightly shut door with confusion in their eyes.

It was obvious that they do not know what His Royal Majesty was up to...

For three hours, the wailing grew louder and louder, causing the hearts of everyone in the Sixth Prince's estate to be filled with panic. It was only after three hours that the noise finally stopped and the silence was restored to the Sixth Prince's estate…

However, when the maidservants went in to clean the bathtub, they almost fainted from the smell. The water, which was originally green in color, was now turbid and emitted a foul stench. No one, not even Gu Ruoyun, could have guessed that there were so many toxins accumulated inside Pang Ran's body...

"Goddess, what kind of medicated bath was that? It almost killed me!"

Just as Pang Ran ran out into the courtyard, he saw Gu Ruoyun who had been admiring the flowers and the trees. He hurriedly ran over to her as he lamented.

If it was not for the fact that his body now feels more refreshed than ever, he might have suspected that his goddess had fooled him on purpose.

"Fatty, try to cultivate."

The corners of Gu Ruoyun's lips curved up slightly as she spoke softly.

"Goddess, what are you saying? I, Pang Ran, am a huge good-for-nothing. I have nothing to do with such a thing as cultivation." Pang Ran laughed heartily as he spoke. He had tried to cultivate before but ultimately, the spiritual force flowing in his veins had all been blocked and there was no way for him to breakthrough. He had then given up.

Hearing that, Gu Ruoyun smiled gently, "Just try it out first."

"Alright. Since you don't believe me, goddess, I will try and prove you wrong."

Saying thus, Pang Ran sat his butt on the ground and began to absorb the spiritual energy in his surroundings. At first, he was ready to fail one more time but, as the spiritual energy moving in his body reached the points which had been blocked before, the energy… Surprisingly passed through?

Pang Ran blinked his eyes as he thought, what… What was going on? Wasn't he a good-for-nothing? This had been foretold by the Imperial Adviser. The Imperial Adviser had even said that he would be useless and he would achieve nothing in the end. But now, what was this?

It was obvious that Gu Ruoyun could see the doubt in Pang Ran's heart. She said softly, "You weren't born a good-for-nothing. The reason why you could not cultivate before was because you had been poisoned while you were in your mother's womb. This caused your veins to be blocked by toxins so you could not absorb any spiritual energy! I have removed the toxins from your body and now, you can be a normal person."

Pang Ran's brain could not comprehend the weight of it all immediately. After a few moments of processing, he finally understood all that Gu Ruoyun had said. He then became furious!
