After Dugu Yan left, Gu Xuan directly took out his daily necessities and some clothes from his storage soul tool. Since the room had already been cleaned, he didn't need to do it again.
After arranging his belongings, Gu Xuan went straight into the bathroom. Each room had an independent bathroom, and there was even a large bathtub inside.
After filling it with water, Gu Xuan jumped straight in and began to enjoy himself.
Gu Xuan was like this: he could be meticulous during training, but when it was time to enjoy himself, he could be completely unencumbered.
After soaking for half an hour, Gu Xuan slowly rose, dried his body, and changed into a set of white casual clothes, which looked somewhat like a long-robed style of pajamas.
White was the color Gu Xuan chose only when resting; normally, he wore a black combat suit just like his grandfather.
Using his soul power to blow his hair dry, he tied his long black hair into a short ponytail with a hair tie. Gu Xuan opened his door and went to the lounge next door.
At this moment, Dugu Yan was sitting cross-legged on a snow-white fur sofa. Her emerald-green, shoulder-length short hair was still a bit damp, and she held a glass of juice in her hand while watching the afterglow of the sunset.
The others had not yet returned.
Hearing the movement, Dugu Yan turned her head. When she saw Gu Xuan, her eyes lit up, and her throat couldn't help but move slightly—because he was simply too handsome.
The afterglow of the setting sun spilled in, and Gu Xuan happened to be facing the faint red light, which added a bit of charm to his white-clad figure. His grayish-black pupils radiated a crystalline spiritual light as he smiled at Dugu Yan.
"Sister Yan, Tianheng and the others aren't back yet?" Gu Xuan asked softly.
Gu Xuan didn't call him "Senior" because it had already been settled at the dinner table earlier. Soul masters respect strength above all else, and since Gu Xuan had already become the undisputed strongest among them, there was no need to be so formal. Calling them by their names was enough.
Gu Xuan was naturally happy to do so, hence he addressed them by name—oh, except for Dugu Yan.
As Gu Xuan spoke, he sat down on the leather sofa next to Dugu Yan and proactively picked up a glass of juice to lightly clink against hers.
Dugu Yan took a sip of her juice and replied. "Should be soon."
Click! Just as Dugu Yan finished speaking, the door lock on the second floor was opened.
Yu Tianheng, Osler, and the others walked in. None of them went to their rooms; they came straight to the lounge.
When Osler walked over and saw Gu Xuan and Dugu Yan sitting close together drinking juice, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, a meaningful smile appearing on his face.
"Sister Yan, how come you two started drinking first? Quick, get me a glass; I'm dying of thirst." Osler approached shamelessly.
Gu Xuan gave him a slight smile and said. "It's not like you don't have hands. Get it yourself."
He wasn't polite at all, but Osler wasn't angry because Gu Xuan's tone was clearly joking.
Osler chuckled and replied. "Fine, I'll get it myself."
As he spoke, Osler directly snatched the juice from Gu Xuan's hand, as there were only two glasses of juice here.
One was in Dugu Yan's hand, and the other was in Gu Xuan's—and Gu Xuan hadn't even taken a single sip yet.
After snatching the juice, Osler immediately fled behind Shi Mo and Shi Mo, drinking it happily.
Gu Xuan smiled helplessly, thinking to himself: 'It seems I really need to properly cultivate some etiquette in this kid.'
Yu Tianheng also laughed, seeing this scene. For a team to be able to get along so harmoniously was naturally for the best.
"Gu Xuan, from today on, you are a member of our Emperor Team. I warmly welcome your arrival," Yu Tianheng said solemnly to Gu Xuan.
The others also looked over and followed suit.
"Yeah, Gu Xuan, we're brothers in one team from now on. Don't forget us if you have anything good."
The one speaking was Osler, who was still drinking the juice he had snatched from Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan also gave a slight smile and didn't argue.
Then Yu Tianheng took out the items they had purchased that afternoon from his storage soul tool.
All sorts of snacks, delicacies, melon seeds, and drinks were there, instantly filling the long table in the middle of the lounge.
Yu Tianheng said. "We won't do anything else tonight. We'll just chat, eat, drink, and have a heart-to-heart."
"Great!" Osler practically jumped up.
But no one cared about him now.
Ye Lingling came to Dugu Yan's side, and the two girls sat close together on a sofa.
Then the group began to eat and chat. Naturally, Gu Xuan paid special attention to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
Dugu Yan was fine; Gu Xuan was constantly talking and laughing with her. But Ye Lingling was different because her personality was indeed quite cold—not just to Gu Xuan, but to everyone.
While chatting, Gu Xuan would occasionally drop subtle questions about Ye Lingling's background and family environment, intending to learn more about her so he would have a better chance of winning her over in the future.
It wasn't until eleven o'clock at night that the group finally dispersed. Yu Tianheng and the others went back to their mimicry cultivation fields to train, while Gu Xuan stayed behind to clean up.
The others originally intended to stay and help, but Gu Xuan told them all to get lost. Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling didn't stay either and went to cultivate.
It wasn't that Gu Xuan was intentionally playing the "good guy," but he truly couldn't stand seeing his living space too dirty or messy.
After spending half an hour cleaning everything up, Gu Xuan finally returned to his room to cultivate. He didn't have a mimicry cultivation field yet, and since he didn't want to disturb Yu Tianheng, he just went back to his room.
The next morning at dawn, Gu Xuan was in great spirits. He had already gotten up at six o'clock to exercise. He went to the courtyard, which was surrounded by various training equipment. Gu Xuan chose a pair of twenty-kilogram sandbags and ten-kilogram sandbags, binding them to his wrists and ankles, respectively. He also put on a thirty-kilogram weighted vest and began his training.
One hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, one hundred pull-ups, one hundred burpees, and twenty full-effort hundred-meter sprints.
These were Gu Xuan's usual training items. However, since breaking through the Rank 30 bottleneck and absorbing his third soul ring, these were no longer that difficult for him.
A total weight of ninety kilograms was actually quite a lot of pressure for him, as he had to wear the weights while performing these exercises.
This was also one of the reasons Gu Xuan had such a good physique.
After Gu Xuan had been training for about ten minutes, Yu Tianheng also appeared in the courtyard. When he saw Gu Xuan, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a bitter smile.
There was a reason Gu Xuan was so powerful; at least this level of diligence was something he couldn't compare to.
Yu Tianheng didn't disturb Gu Xuan's training. After glancing at Gu Xuan's weights, Yu Tianheng followed suit and began his own training.
Around seven o'clock, Shi Mo, Shi Mo, Yu Feng, Osler, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling all came out. Seeing Gu Xuan and Yu Tianheng training, they hesitated for a moment before joining in.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Gu Xuan thought for a moment and spoke directly. "Since everyone is here, I'll lead the training."
No one argued with those words, as Gu Xuan's strength was evident. However, when they saw the weights on Gu Xuan's body, they were all stunned.
'Such heavy weights?'
