100 Joy in Helping Others (2/2)

That person was Du Min.

Du Min was panting heavily to catch her breath. She was battling a six-inch Spirit Root that was identical to her while drenched in sweat, but even her sweat smelled pleasant. Her cultivation had already reached the Physical Seal stage, but her foundation was fundamentally rooted in the Alchemy faculty, giving her a disadvantage in combat. As of now, she had already exhausted many of her Spirit Pills.

Therefore, even though she had managed to find a six-inch Spirit Root fated to her, she could not battle as she usually would and had to exert all her strength. She was so beaten that she looked as if she could not win the fight.

She grew increasingly anxious and had wanted to seek help using the jade slip when Wang Baole passed by. After noticing her, his eyes lit up, and he changed his surroundings quickly, running toward Du Min. Before he reached her, he began speaking.

”Washboard, do you want some help from the handsome me?”

Du Min also noticed Wang Baole. She was usually annoyed at him, but now that Wang Baole appeared when she most needed assistance, she was immediately surprised. Before she could speak, she heard the nickname that Wang Baole used to address himself and her, and she was immediately irritated.

”Stupid Fatty, go! I don't need any of your help!” Du Min stared fiercely at Wang Baole before continuing her battle with the six-inch Spirit Root.

Seeing how hard headed Du Min was even in such circumstances, Wang Baole was full of amazement.

”Washboard, I admire this quality of you most! All the best! I'll help watch your surroundings as a guardian.” Excitedly, Wang Baole sat by the side, retrieved his snacks, and munched on them while watching the battle.

With Wang Baole seemingly wanting to enjoy the show with his snacks, Du Min grew irritated. As she fought the six-inch Spirit Root, she seemed to be unable to perform. It was only after a while that she managed to suppress the irritation welling up in her heart, and she gritted her teeth, determined to overcome the Spirit Root.

However, the illusory figure that morphed from the six-inch Spirit Root was relatively strong in combat. In her anxiousness, Du Min found it difficult to suppress it.

As he watched the show, Wang Baole's eyes lit up, as he began speaking loudly. ”Washboard, address me as brother, and I'll help you. Deal?”

Du Min grew even more furious, hearing Wang Baole's words. However, she was extremely stubborn, and despite being physically weak, she refused to obey and reply.

Witnessing everything, Wang Baole sighed again.

”Forget it, your fault is in being too stubborn. Why get angry over a simple joke?” Wang Baole put his snacks away and cleaned his fingers before rushing out. His speed far exceeded that of Du Min's, and in the blink of an eye, he had appeared before her, raising his left hand and launching it toward the space between Du Min and the figure of the True Breath, resulting in the True Breath being forced several steps back.

Thereafter, his right fist landed with a loud bang, and the six-inch Spirit Root trembled wildly. As it retreated, Wang Baole dashed behind it, striking it again as he growled!

”Break!”

He used all his strength for the punch, breaking the sound barrier, and was extremely impressive. The punch landed directly on the six-inch Spirit Root's back, causing it to vibrate and stumble toward Du Min while its body began breaking down. As it neared her, it could no longer support itself and imploded, transforming into a large cloud of green fog that was absorbed into Du Min's body.

Du Min was agitated, and with a slight tremble, the five-inch Spirit Root within her was replaced by the six-inch Spirit Root!

Noticing that Du Min's absorption was complete, Wang Baole shook his body slightly and continued his search for the eight-inch Spirit Root. Before he left, he insulted her jokingly again.

”Washboard, you don't have to thank me. I'll take my leave first, alright?”

Finishing his sentence, Wang Baole immediately disappeared. Du Min stared at Wang Baole with her eyes wide open and hummed. However, her eyes were filled with a tinge of happiness.

”This stupid fatty… seems like he still has likable points. It's just that he has a vicious tongue, and he likes to offend others!”

In reality, Du Min was not the first person that Wang Baole had helped. Along the way, as long as he met schoolmates from Ethereal Dao College, he would lend a helping hand so that they could successfully absorb the True Breath Spirit Root.

All that was different was that he and Du Min shared a unique relationship, as even before they both entered the Dao College, they had been bickering for many years. That was why he had insulted her a little. Right now, as he continued his search, it was already evening, and the skies transformed into beautiful, dark colors.

Looking at the sky, Wang Baole had wanted to continue his search in another direction, but at that moment, he lowered his head to look at his storage bracelet and retrieved a jade slip glowing bright red and vibrating rapidly!

That object had been given by the Dao College and was an object that was used when students were in distress!
