Chapter 131: Stability Increase?

Lin Wu was focused on refining his spirit sense and didn't realize when time passed by. He only snapped out of it when he sensed the formation on the safe becoming active. 

'Someone's coming? Shirong obviously…' Lin Wu though still feeling a bit dazed from the nonstop refinement.

He had refined his spirit sense further and now it had reached the max range of 110 meters. He had failed a couple of times too but was able to recover and regrow his spirit sense rather quickly. It truly was the spatial storage ring that was causing him all the troubles.

There were no spirit qi explosions when he failed, and the spirit qi simply dissipated when that happened. This made it quite peaceful for him, as he didn't need to be at a hundred percent alertness to escape from the explosion when they happened.

Also, now that there were no explosions, he wasn't as distracted either and didn't need to constantly refocus.

~hum~

A faint sound was heard as the door of the safe opened. The person who had opened it was Shirong as Lin Wu had expected. He was still lying in the same position as Shirong had left him, and thus he did not suspect anything.

"That was a good night…" Shirong muttered to himself, feeling quite relaxed. 

He was only wearing a pant right now and was shirtless. His chiseled abs on full display like a Greek god's statue that had come alive. Lin Wu saw him and felt a bit jealous when he compared him to his past life's self.

In his past life, he was skinny and had the athletic skill of a snail. But now that he had reincarnated, he didn't even have the chance to get a ripped body. Even if he was born with an ugly face as a human here, he could still attempt to have an amazing body.

But then a few seconds later he realized something.

"Why am I even thinking of this? I am no longer a human, there is no sense in thinking about a human…" Lin Wu said to himself.

As soon as he did this, he felt as if his mind had cleared up and a wave of calmness washed over his entire body.

~Ding~

——

NOTIFICATION: Host Vitals improved.

HOST SOUL: Stability increased.

——

Lin Wu had not expected that this one single revelation would improve his condition. He knew that while his soul was healed, it was not completely stable yet. It was the same as if when someone sick was cured, they would still be weakened for a period of time.

"I feel much better than before…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

Shirong was about to bend down to pick up the spear when he suddenly stopped. His eyes went wide as he sensed a fluctuation in the connection he had with the green crystal spear. He didn't know what had happened, but knew that there was a certain kind of change.

He tried to think for five minutes but still couldn't comprehend what must have happened. 

'I'll just deal with it when I understand it later.' Shirong thought to himself.

He then bent down and picked up the green crystal spear while amplifying his strength with spirit qi. He then willed it and the spear started transforming. It coiled around his arm, moving upwards and around his body. Soon it had fully turned into a beautiful emerald green armor.

Shirong could feel the increase in the weight and stumbled for a bit before stabilizing. 

"Seems like I still need to get used to it…" He muttered to himself while looking at the armor.

He left the safe and waved his hand, closing the safe and hiding it back. But just as he was about to step out of the study, something caught his eye. It was in the very corner of his field of vision and he couldn't help but feel curious.

"A brief history of the Lu clan?" Shirong read the book that was slightly sticking out from the shelf.

He furrowed his borrows for a moment before an idea papered in his mind.

~Chuckle~

"Clan head Lu took no stops, huh? Even going so far as to highlighting their clan's history book…" Shirong said before placing the book back onto the shelf.

He left the study while Lin Wu meanwhile was a bit on the edge.

~Phew~

"Seems like he didn't sense anything that different. Good, that I only read a few books and the one that I read the most was this one. I should have taken care to put it back properly though… I need to be careful in the future." Lin Wu said to himself.

Shirong had returned to the bedroom by now and took a look at his 'painting' that he had created. The canvas was the bed, and the characters were the ten naked beauties that were sleeping soundly with smiles on their faces. Some small 'red flowers' could also be seen hidden among the beauties.

Shirong seemed proud of his handiworks and nodded his head in approval. While Lin Wu simply ignored it. He found it much easier to not be bothered by something like this now that he had the revelation a couple of minutes ago.

Shirong looked to the side and picked up the sheet that had been pushed off. He flicked it in the air and covered all of the beauties that were currently sleeping as if a painter covering his painting to protect it from dust.

Shirong didn't expect that he would do this for someone, or rather a few people in this case. But he couldn't help but chuckle again. The night was indeed memorable for him and this was the least he could do for the girls that had pleased him.

He went to the wardrobe and picked out a new set of clothes before wearing them. The armor was once again hidden beneath the clothes, away from the prying eyes of others.
