Chapter 157 - Chapter 157: 157 It’s not what you think (2/2)

And so, wearing only his boxershorts, he ran to the camp to get a clean set of clothes to put on.

There was no one in the camp, everyone must have left the island.

When he arrived, he saw several small boats parked on the dock. There would be no problem returning to the continent.

When Gu Yang returned to the waterfall, Pei Qianlan had already changed into his clothes, which were quite large for her. The spaciousness of the outfit made the sleeves and pants too long, so they could only be rolled up.

She tied up her long hair with a strip of cloth. This style could not conceal her beauty at all, but rather it added a unique charm to her appearance.

She was indeed a natural beauty.

Gu Yang was stunned at the sight.

Pei Qianlan saw him staring at her. Her heart was filled with both shyness and joy as she played with the tie of the clothing. She whispered, “What are you looking at?”

Gu Yang exclaimed, “If I introduce you to my classmates on Earth, they would surely be so envious.”

Even though Pei Qianlan didn’t know exactly what place Earth was, she got the idea from his words, which sweetened her heart.

“Let’s go and check out the Dragon Washing Pond,” he said.

Back on Earth, he was the only single guy in his dorm, which often made him the target of his friends’ teasing. A sense of nostalgia swept over him.

However, he quickly pulled himself out from that mood.

The Dragon Washing Pond was of immeasurable value for the mortal realm, despite the mysterious elder’s disregard for it.

Lei Hao probably attained his Golden Body by using it.

Gu Yang also benefited a lot from the Dragon Washing Pond, as he finally tempered his innate body after countless simulations.

The credit goes greatly to his innate body for his current tremendous strength.

It didn’t take Gu Yang long to locate the Dragon Washing Pond, which was situated behind the waterfall inside a large cave.

The pure white pool water was filled with astonishing energy.

“My injuries are completely healed, so I don’t need this anymore. You should use it,” Pei Qianlan said.

The drop of liquid tossed out by the elder was likely the true water of the Dragon Washing Pond. Not only did it completely restore her depleted foundation, but it also helped her consolidate her innate body.

For her, the path to the realm of divine power was no longer obstructed.

This was the true definition of a naturally gifted treasure.

She indeed did not need the water here.

Gu Yang shook his head. “This is no longer useful to me. Let’s go.”

“Where to?”

“To wait outside.”

Soon, Pei Qianlan realized who Gu Yang was waiting for.

A boat appeared on the sea, and soon several people flew over; they were Lily, Su Qingzhen and Xu Ruomei.

Gu Yang hadn’t foreseen this using his predictive abilities or the simulator. He was down to his last simulation and wouldn’t impulsively use it like last time.

It had to be saved for a crucial moment.

He had made a guess.

King Jinghai, who should have been in seclusion to consolidate his cultivation level, had made a special trip to Dragon Gate Island to find him. This must be because Su Qingzhen and the others had sought help from the palace.

When Gu Yang had left, Su Qingzhen and Xu Ruomei were still feuding. He had told Zhang Xiao Hai he would be going to Dragon Gate Island and would return in a few days or two weeks at the most.

Yet, it was only two days later, and she had already gone to King Jinghai for help.

She really didn’t have any faith in him at all.

“They’re here,” he said.

After Lily brought them to the ground, Gu Yang spoke first before they could, saying “Follow me,” then leapt up to lead the way, not giving them a chance to speak.

Seeing that Gu Yang was safe and sound, Su Qingzhen and Xu Ruomei finally let out a sigh of relief.

But upon seeing that Pei Qianlan was wearing Gu Yang’s clothes, they were overwhelmed with bitterness.

Seeing no response from them, Lily once again performed a spell, leading them into the air after Gu Yang.

Shortly after, they arrived at a waterfall.

Gu Yang led them through the waterfall and disappeared from sight.

Lily also followed him in. Inside was a cave leading to a small pool in its deepest part.

He said, “This is the Dragon Washing Pond. Go in and soak yourselves. The benefits you gain would depend on yourselves.”

After he finished speaking, Gu Yang left with Pei Qianlan.
