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!

"F*ckers, who could be so sinister and cruel to go so far as to poison me! If it wasn't for that b*stard, I would not have been a good-for-nothing. If I wasn't a good-for-nothing, I would not have given up on myself! In the end, I've made myself into this damned thing! If I ever find out who that b*stard is, I will f*ck his ancestors up!"

Pang Ran was mad with fury. He gritted his teeth and looked as if he wanted to swallow the other person alive. Only God knows how he had passed his days under inhumane conditions for all these years! As for the main culprit of this huge tragedy, he would definitely not let him go unpunished!

"Right, what do you think about the prophecy by the Imperial Adviser regarding my situation?" In the blink of an eye, Pang Ran suddenly recalled this matter.

"Who is the Imperial Advisor close to?"

"That would be Imperial Concubine Lin. The Imperial Adviser is Imperial Concubine Lin's older brother by birth. My eldest Imperial brother, second Imperial brother and fourth Imperial brother had all passed on early. The third Imperial brother is Imperial Concubine Lin's son and the most probable heir to the throne. The one who went to the restaurant today looking for trouble was my fifth Imperial brother."

Afraid that Gu Ruoyun would not understand the nature of their relationships, Pang Ran quickly explained everything.

Gu Ruoyun rubbed her chin in thought as she listened to Pang Ran's words, "This Imperial Adviser is not an easy target. He's most likely involved in this matter as well based on the fact that he is related to Imperial Concubine Lin and the Third Prince is his nephew."

"Damn!" The fatty was furious, "The Imperial Adviser has actually wanted to harm me? To think that I had always admired him so much! This is such a waste of my affection!"

The Imperial Adviser had foretold that Pang Ran would be a good-for-nothing and this damned fatty had even adored him like an idol! It was unimaginable to think that not only was the Emperor of Black Tortoise Country a weirdo, this fatty was the king amongst the weirdos...

She had never met such a weird person!

"Fatty, come with me." Gu Ruoyun raised her eyebrows, "If you stay here, someone will be sure to come and disturb us. We need a quiet place to help you lose weight. After three months, I will certainly get the fat off your entire body."

...

The weight loss technique that Gu Ruoyun mentioned was to, again, use a bunch of obscure medicinal herbs for the fatty to bathe in. Every day, Gu Ruoyun could hear the fatty wailing like a pig being slaughtered. However, the results were very clear. After each bath, there would be layers of yellow fat floating inside the bathtub. They had all been discharged from his pores.

Still, it was a great pity that the fatty's natural talent was not all that great. Furthermore, he was such a lazy fellow that he had only broken through to level two in the Qi Collection ranks in three months. This was only achieved after Gu Ruoyun had fed him a pile of pills.

Therefore, Gu Ruoyun gave up on the plan of helping him to cultivate.

However, in contrast to cultivation, this fatty has the talent to govern the country; this sort of skill was much more suitable for him to be the Emperor of the nation! As the Emperor, one does not need to be a skilled cultivator but one would need to have the ability to govern the people peacefully. Furthermore, Black Tortoise Country was controlled by the Xia family of Heaven City. As long as the Xia family grants their permission, one could sit securely on the throne and no one would dare to try and usurp it. The Xia family would only choose a new Emperor if the current one makes a huge mistake.

As for this fatty, he had never shown one ounce of talent because the Imperial Adviser had commented that he would be a good-for-nothing for life so he had given up on himself.

In the Royal Study, a figure dressed in brilliant yellow sat on the Dragon Chair as he studied the Imperial edicts on the table closely. That person occasionally furrowed his eyebrows and sighed. There were worry lines written all over his face.
