“Liushen, Liushen! Diana Duke that guy, I don’t know when he started playing this too. If you don’t log in, tonight Mr. Stone might get surpassed. You know Mr. Stone’s temper…”

“It’s none of my business! It’s just a game, why are they fighting so hard for this ranking? I’m busy tonight, I’ll play with him tomorrow during the day, that’s it! If you call again, I won’t play tomorrow either!”

Ethan Brooks hung up the phone and found that this time his Demon King value had actually shot up by 60.

Obviously, this time standing someone up might really cause David Stone to be overtaken by Diana Duke in the game. At this moment, he regretted saying things so firmly just now. Otherwise, if Old Young called a few more times, maybe he could go egg-hunting.

“There’s always tomorrow.” Ethan Brooks turned his attention back to the ‘Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill’, sitting cross-legged and continuing to cultivate. This session lasted two hours, and when Ethan Brooks opened his eyes, he saw his old man Ethan Bruce coming home.

“The old guys’ chess skills are pretty good, made a small profit of two hundred today.” Ethan Bruce reported his results as he entered, walked to the table, picked up the thermos cup with ‘goji berries’ and said, “Oh? Soaking goji berries? Just one? I’m dying of thirst, let me try it first.”

Ethan Brooks raised his hand, wanting to stop his dad and warn him that drinking this might soon send him running to the bathroom for a while.

But before Ethan Brooks could say anything, Ethan Bruce had already boldly gulped down the whole cup of water.

Ethan Brooks silently gave a thumbs up, admiring his dad’s guts. He himself had only taken two sips and ended up in the bathroom for ten minutes. With his dad downing a whole cup so boldly, he might have to spend the night in the bathroom.

“Heavenly Book…”

“What is it? And! Call me Dad!”

“The toilet paper is in the wardrobe, there are still ten rolls.”

“Why are you telling me this? Is there no paper in the bathroom?”

“No, I’m just afraid you won’t have enough tonight…”

“Not enough for what? I already took care of it outside… Ow… I’ll go to the bathroom first…”

“Remember, there are still ten rolls of toilet paper in the wardrobe…”

“I don’t need them!”

Half an hour later…

“Xiao Liuzi, which cabinet is the toilet paper in? Also, where’s the anti-diarrheal medicine?”

An hour and a half later…

“Xiao Liuzi, could you go downstairs for me? I’m afraid these ten rolls won’t be enough… This anti-diarrheal medicine isn’t working.”

Ethan Brooks and Ethan Bruce spent an extremely eventful night together. It wasn’t until seven in the morning that Ethan Bruce finally escaped the ‘secret realm’ of the bathroom, breaking free from its ‘seal’.

During this busy night, besides watching his dad’s tragic ordeal, Ethan Brooks also managed to gain another 90 Demon King points. At that moment, when he checked his phone, Diana Duke was at King 15 stars, David Stone was also at King 15 stars.

The result of being tied for first was caused by Ethan Brooks standing them up, which is why he got an extra 90 Demon King points. This made Ethan Brooks look forward to Diana Duke surpassing David Stone by one more star. But by seven in the morning, neither of their stars had increased, so it seemed both sides had left the final battle for today.

“Liuzi, is this goji berry of yours expired?” Ethan Bruce walked out of the bathroom, holding up his pants and rubbing his important rear organ, complaining, “It nearly killed me.”

When his dad was first trapped in the bathroom, Ethan Brooks was worried the old man might actually die in there. But after checking a few times, he found that although he couldn’t leave the toilet, his skin was getting more and more rosy and shiny, without a trace of pale exhaustion.

The effect of the Five Viscera and Six Bowels Fruit far exceeded expectations. Aside from causing pain in a certain organ, it was extremely nourishing and cleansing for the rest of the body. After being tormented all night, his dad wasn’t even tired and was actually quite energetic.

“How do your five viscera and six bowels feel now?” Ethan Brooks asked, trying to confirm his guess.

Ethan Bruce was stunned for a moment, then realized his stomach felt an indescribable freshness and comfort, like the room had just been thoroughly cleaned.

Ethan Brooks confirmed his theory, shifted his gaze to the freshly brewed cup of ‘goji berry’ water, then looked at his dad, who was still rubbing his rear.

This was a very tough choice… but there was only one right answer.

Ethan Brooks grumbled in his heart about the Demon King system—why couldn’t it give him something harmless like the Shaolin Marrow Cleansing Sutra, but instead gave him the Five Viscera and Six Bowels Fruit with side effects.

Then, Ethan Brooks decisively picked up the cup and took two very restrained sips.

After witnessing Ethan Bruce’s spectacular performance last night, Ethan Brooks understood the importance of moderation.

“Are you crazy, kid? Still drinking?” Ethan Bruce stepped forward to snatch the cup from Ethan Brooks’s hand, but suddenly found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get it away. The thermos cup seemed to be firmly embedded in Ethan Brooks’s hand.

“How is that possible?” Ethan Bruce was surprised. Because of his kidney, his son’s physical strength was probably not even as much as a girl his age. Even though he was missing a kidney, he was still an adult, and his strength had always been enough to overpower him.
