[Urban] Dad, I Want to Cultivate with You (Complete) 10-12

Chapter 103

"Whose match are we going to watch next?" Holding the jade slip, Ya Ya flipped through it over and over. If only the jade slip could have a Baidu search function, she could just try out the most interesting matches and then get a ranking in a flash. Hehe, that would be fun.

"Whose match does Martial Uncle want to watch?" Just as she was getting dizzy with choices, Lin Min came over. Once she lost and was eliminated, there was nothing left for her. Lin Min also became a spectator of the competition. Seeing that her Junior Uncle hadn't left yet, Lin Min came over again. It wasn't for Qingluo Zhenjun. She was just a junior disciple in the Qi Refining stage, and a junior disciple who was preparing to cultivate medicine. Whether it was Qingluo Zhenjun or any other Zhenjun who wanted to take on disciples, there was no way she would be involved. She came over to hang out with her Junior Uncle simply because she liked him. She had a good feeling about him from the first time they met. Sometimes, the fate between people is that simple.

"How was it? How did it feel? But it's alright, you'll do even better next time." Seeing Lin Min, Ya Ya put away the jade slip. No matter how powerful the jade slip was, it was useless against a living person. Lin Min definitely knew better than the jade slip whose match was worth watching.

"Yes, next time I'll definitely be a Foundation Establishment disciple!" Lin Min nodded excitedly. Although she lost quickly, she had benefited greatly and was already very satisfied. Moreover, the disciple she had sparred with knew his limits; they truly stopped short of killing, unlike some hot-tempered disciples who went too far. As long as no one was killed, injuries were allowed in the competition; those were truly terrible situations.

Next time… Ya Ya looked up at the sky. Next time was a hundred years later. Whew, in cultivation, time seemed to stand still. For mortals, there was no next hundred years, but here, a hundred years truly passed in the blink of an eye. Turning her gaze back to Lin Min, she wished that this little disciple would truly achieve Foundation Establishment a hundred years from now.

"Then, Martial Uncle, I congratulate you in advance!" Ya Ya clasped her hands. Now she somewhat understood Yuan Bai's reluctance to make friends. Although Yuan Bai was aloof, once he truly accepted someone, he was genuinely kind to them. However, even the best of friends would only see each other less and less in the long years of cultivation. Rather than suffer the pain of separation, it was better not to have the chance to suffer at all.

"Thank you, Martial Uncle!" Lin Min was not polite either. Although her spiritual root prevented her from being powerful, she could not deny her good physique of having two spiritual roots. She was confident that she could cross the Foundation Establishment stage. Besides, cultivators, regardless of their aptitude, must have confidence. Without confidence, what kind of cultivation is it!

"You've come at the right time. Tell Martial Uncle which competition is the most interesting. There are too many people. Even with a guide, it's still dazzling." After finishing the pleasantries, she quickly got down to business.

“Let’s go see Senior Brother Wu’s match first. Senior Brother Wu’s aptitude is top-tier among Qi Refining disciples. He has metal and fire spiritual roots, so his match will be very interesting to watch.” Lin Min thought for a moment. There were many matches worth watching, but the one closest to them was Senior Brother Wu’s. Speaking of Senior Brother Wu, she had met her Martial Uncle with him a while ago, and her Martial Uncle should be interested.

“Yes, let’s go, let’s go now.” Ya Ya nodded. She had already looked at Wu Shu Fan’s information. Lin Min, with her water and wood spiritual roots, seemed a bit weak in matches. She wondered if Wu Shu Fan, with his metal and fire spiritual roots, would be as fiery as his spiritual roots.

When the two arrived, the competition had just begun. The scene was indeed as intense as Ya Ya had imagined. Fortunately, Wu Shufan was a man, and also fortunately, his spiritual roots were metal and fire. Although his opponent's spiritual roots could not compare with his, they were not bad either, being metal and earth spiritual roots. It seemed that the competition at the beginning was intentionally arranged to group disciples with the same cultivation level and the same number of spiritual roots together, with Qi Refining Level 9 against Level 9, and dual spiritual roots against dual spiritual roots. The competition was meant to help the disciples improve, but it was also important not to let the losing disciples be too discouraged and lose their confidence in cultivation. This was just right.

At first glance, what was visible was Wu Shufan's crimson flames, dazzlingly bright. If it weren't for the protective layer at the edge of the arena, one might even feel the scorching heat of the flames. Ya Ya thought this must be related to his metal and fire spiritual roots. Wu Shufan was clearly on the offensive, while the other side remained composed. Wu Shufan was using both metal and fire, while his opponent was focusing entirely on earth for defense. Wait, when the crimson flames attacked, the opponent's earth defense proved indestructible; it must also be a combination of metal and earth.

Water can be submerged by earth, and similarly, fire can be buried by earth.

It was unclear whether the attacker was using a spearhead or the defender a solid shield.

Moreover, the offense and defense weren't static; both could attack or defend simultaneously. One moment it was one attacking and the other defending, the next moment it was the other attacking.

As expected, after Wu Shufan's first wave of crimson-gold flames was blocked, his opponent quickly switched gears, wielding a sharp golden spear and attacking Wu Shufan at close range. Wu Shufan remained calm, dodging the spear with a swift movement, and changing his stance to wield a crimson-gold longsword to meet the attack. Both fighters were also active, one using earth for defense, the other for support, and for a time, they were evenly matched.

"Uncle-Master, who do you think will be the final winner?" Lin Min asked softly. Her cultivation was inferior to the two on the stage, so her perspective was naturally less advanced.

"Their cultivation is the same, and their spiritual roots are similar. Originally, it should have been a 50/50 split, but now it seems it should be Junior Brother Wu." Even with her limited experience, Ya Ya could still discern the difference in a match where the opponent was a much lower level than her.

"Why?" Lin Min asked, puzzled. She glanced at the stage again but still couldn't figure it out.

"When paths cross, the brave prevail!" Because Wu Shufan's attack was more proactive; sometimes, offense is the best defense.

Chapter 104

The result of the competition was exactly as Ya Ya had predicted. After a fierce battle, the sharpness of the fire and metal pierced through the solidity of the metal and earth. Although the earth could bury the fire, it couldn't withstand the sharpness of the metal. And although the metal had its advantage, it couldn't withstand the melting power of the fire. Wu Shufan won!

"Uncle-Master is so amazing! As expected, Senior Brother Wu won!" Lin Min looked at Ya Ya with enthusiastic eyes, as if to say, "Following Uncle-Master will bring you good fortune.

" "Their strength was actually about the same, otherwise they wouldn't have fought for so long. In the end, it was just a matter of who could hold on the longest. In this aspect, Junior Nephew Wu was a little stronger, perhaps because of the domineering power of the metal and fire. In any case, we must congratulate Junior Nephew Wu." Willpower is indeed a terrifying thing. Even now, in many diseases, willpower can determine a person's life or death, let alone in the cultivation world, a world where external cultivation and internal mental state go hand in hand.

"They are both great. I wonder when I can be like them!" Lin Min looked at the two in the arena with envy. Regardless of the winner or loser, they were both objects of her envy.

"Don't belittle yourself. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, just like them." Patting Lin Min's shoulder, Ya Ya chuckled inwardly, thinking she was becoming more and more like a senior uncle.

"Senior Uncle?" Lin Min looked at Ya Ya with a blank yet increasingly admiring expression. Her senior uncle's words were indeed profound; she couldn't possibly understand them in a moment.

"Ahem, if you don't think I'm being pretentious, I can share my thoughts after watching these matches, including yours." Ya Ya coughed lightly. She did have some insights, but wasn't sure if they were correct. She simply had a soft spot for Lin Min and, seeing Lin Min envying others while belittling herself, couldn't bear it and couldn't resist offering some guidance. Even if her advice wasn't perfect, Lin Min was at least a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so it should be of some help.

"Please enlighten me, Senior Uncle!" Lin Min bowed respectfully, understanding her senior uncle's meaning. She was overjoyed, her words and actions becoming even more respectful. To receive guidance from her senior uncle was such a stroke of luck; such fortune was rare among millions.

"I'm just sharing my opinion; you don't have to accept it. Finding your own path of cultivation by combining it with your own methods is the most correct approach." Ya Ya wanted to give Lin Min a heads-up first, otherwise, if she forced Lin Min to cultivate according to her own ideas and didn't do it correctly, it would truly be a case of good intentions gone wrong.

"Don't worry, Uncle-Master, I understand." Lin Min remained respectful, but in her heart, she was even more grateful for her Uncle-Master's thoughtfulness.

"Then let me explain. The five elements of heaven and earth—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—are the origin of our spiritual roots and constitutions, and even mutants are based on them. However, many people only see the sharpness of metal and fire, and the softness of water and wood, but they overlook the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements. Fire melts metal, water extinguishes fire, earth blocks water, wood absorbs earth, and metal breaks wood. But if you add power, everything can be reversed. If metal is too strong, fire will be difficult to melt; if fire is too strong, water cannot extinguish it; if water is too strong, it can break through earth; if earth is too strong, wood cannot absorb it; if wood is too thick, metal will also find it difficult to break through it. To be specific, for example, in your competition, you are water and wood, and your opponent is fire and earth." Seeing that your opponent's spiritual root is stronger than yours, both water and wood are at a disadvantage against fire, not to mention their earth element. But what if your water element is stronger than their fire element? Besides, you have wood to control earth. I think you should combine this with your cultivation techniques to develop some offensive weapons suitable for you. Also, in my opinion, you lost to your opponent from the start with your aura. Your attack methods are too petty and lack grandeur. I prefer to remain still until the moment you strike, then overwhelm your opponent with your presence and defeat them with your skills. You've used your wood element poorly, turning it into a hedgehog, wasting its potential. You've also misused your water element. If you see your opponent unleash fire, you can unleash all your power on the water element. When they unleash earth, you can unleash water or wood – either is fine. If both sides have equal strength and cultivation, you can focus your energy on one thing at a time. Having water and wood simultaneously would actually dilute your cultivation. In equal circumstances, my best choice is water. I concentrate all my energy on water, and no matter what the opponent is, I'll wash it all away with water. Whether it's metal, wood, water, fire, or earth, any element can be a powerful weapon. This is the foundation of my strategy for dealing with enemies. In addition, a calm mind, quick reflexes, and swift movements are also crucial. "It's easier said than done. I'm still figuring it out myself. I'm telling you this just so you don't underestimate your water and wood spiritual roots. They can be your most powerful foundation for fighting enemies. As for how to use them, that's for you to figure out. Besides, this is my own cultivation, not yours." Ya Ya stopped talking. She had ideas about how to transform water and wood into benefits, but these things require personal understanding. No matter how much others tell you, it's not as good as truly understanding. So, Ya Ya didn't continue. If Lin Min could truly understand and comprehend it, that would be good. If she didn't understand and couldn't comprehend it, then she should stick to medical cultivation.

"Disciple thanks Martial Uncle!" What Ya Ya said was a great shock to Lin Min. The five elements' mutual generation and restraint, explained in such detail, had never been told to her before, nor had anyone ever spoken of such things. This was entirely her Martial Uncle's understanding of the Dao, and now he was explaining it to her in such detail. It not only enlightened her but also gave her more confidence in her spiritual roots. Although she couldn't fully comprehend it yet, she had firmly memorized it, and only needed to gradually comprehend it. No matter how much she ultimately understood, she was grateful to her Martial Uncle. It's undeniable that the quick defeat in the competition had been a blow to Lin Min. Without her Martial Uncle's teachings, she didn't know what her confidence would be like in the future. But at this most crucial moment, her Martial Uncle had enlightened her, and she would forever remember this kindness.

Ya Ya also never expected that today's cause would bring her such a good result in the future.

However, at this moment, Ya Ya wasn't thinking about cause and effect. She was enlightening Lin Min and gaining a lot herself. However, there was no one here to enlighten her, so she could only wait to return to the peak and find Yuan Bai to answer her questions.

Chapter 105

"You're back. Are you tired?" Seeing Ya Ya come in, Li Yuan Bai put down the book in his hand, poured tea and handed it to Ya Ya. There were also some snacks that had been prepared in advance. Even though Ya Ya was cultivating, she still had to eat. She ate three meals a day. According to Ya Ya, if she didn't eat, she always felt strange. Cultivation was important, but experiencing the delicious food of the world through her taste buds was also very important to Ya Ya. Only in this way could she feel her own freshness.

"Not tired." Although she wasn't tired, she still took the tea and drank it all, and then picked up some snacks and put them in her mouth.

"How do you feel?" He refilled Ya Ya's tea. Seeing Ya Ya's happy face, Li Yuan Bai knew that she must have been very happy.

"Yes, although it was just a competition among Qi Refining stage disciples, I still learned a lot in terms of tactics and techniques." Ya Ya's biggest weakness has always been her lack of real combat experience. Without practice, no amount of theory is anything but empty talk. Now, seeing so many real matches, even though she hasn't actually participated herself, is much better than just talking, listening, and watching with Li Yuanbai in the past. The gap between her and Li Yuanbai is simply too great. Li Yuanbai's moves are already fluid and effortless, leaving no trace of his initial technique. But now, seeing the Qi Refining stage disciples' matches, Ya Ya can see the initial forms of various techniques. Therefore, compared to Li Yuanbai, she has indeed benefited greatly today.

"How was it?" Li Yuanbai was happy regardless of what Ya Ya had gained; his Ya Ya was undoubtedly the smartest.

"Watching everyone compete with their best skills, I realized that many moves require constant practice to execute as beautifully as Yuan Bai's. I wasted my time before, blindly imitating your moves. I can't even walk properly, let alone run well." Yes, she had initially tried to imitate Yuan Bai's refined movements and techniques, but she only grasped the surface. No matter how she tried, she couldn't feel the inner power Yuan Bai possessed. Now, after watching today's competition, Ya Ya understood. Because Yuan Bai's style wasn't her own, she too needed to hone her skills through countless trials to achieve elegance.

"Why don't you try it out in a few days?" Seeing Ya Ya's excitement, Li Yuan Bai thought this might be a good idea. He was always worried about her getting hurt and wanted to protect her, but protecting her didn't mean letting her hide behind him forever. Letting her grow and become strong was the best way to protect her.

"No, I'm only watching the Qi Refining disciples' competition. It'll definitely be a different story when it comes to Foundation Establishment disciples. I won't participate. I'll observe more; there will be plenty of opportunities to train later." Ya Ya was somewhat tempted, but ultimately agreed. Her reasoning was exactly as she said: observe first, then train. Not to mention going out for training, there are plenty of opportunities within the Tai Xu Sect. Not to mention far away, a trip to the back mountain of the Tai Xu Sect will provide ample opportunities for training.

"Alright, after the competition ends, our Dual Cultivation Ceremony will also be held. Ya Ya, you can choose some sect tasks to do first. After my year of preaching on Wuwei Peak is complete, I'll accompany you to the central peak of the back mountain." The most important thing upon returning to the Tai Xu Sect is for the sect to organize their Dual Cultivation Ceremony, but since they're back, they can do it here.

"The central peak of the back mountain?" Ya Ya was puzzled; this was the first time Yuan Bai had mentioned it.

"We don't have fire spiritual roots, nor do we have a source of fire within us. However, fire is essential for cultivators; it's needed for alchemy and medicine making. So, since we don't have it internally, we extract fire from outside and plant it inside. Although it can't compare to the innate fire of a fire spiritual root, it's still better than nothing. If we encounter a good opportunity and obtain several kinds of heavenly fire, we're no worse than someone with a fire spiritual body." This also explains why someone with metal, wood, and earth spiritual roots could still use fire attacks.

"Does everyone who doesn't have a fire spiritual root draw fire into their body like this?" Ya Ya thought about it again and realized something was wrong. In the competition she saw today, no one without a fire spiritual root used fire.

"Of course not. This was a chance encounter I had, unknown to others. Originally, we planned to travel and find a good fire source to help you enter the inner realm after the Taixu Sect matter was settled. But now I think we should first help you draw fire into your body, giving you another means of attack and defense. We can draw fire again when we find a good fire source later. However, drawing fire into the body is a bit painful, so Ya Ya will have to bear it."

"You went to the middle peak of the back mountain today?" Ya Ya narrowed her eyes. She definitely didn't know there was a fire source on the middle peak of the back mountain before. Thinking about it, she started to get angry. Ya Ya, who already knew about the Taixu Sect, knew where the middle peak of the back mountain was. It was a peak located in the middle section of the back mountain. The middle section of the back mountain, and he actually went in alone, disregarding his own safety!

"Don't be angry. I never thought of going there before. It's just that now that I'm a Nascent Soul cultivator and have fought against ninth-tier demonic beasts, I want to see what's there. I won't go if I'm not confident in my own safety. For example, I've never even considered going to the back peak." Knowing she was angry, he pulled her to sit on his lap and gently comforted her. The higher the rank of the demonic beast, the greater the chance of finding treasures in its area. At most, there might be rare spiritual herbs and flowers, and there's also the possibility of occasionally finding spiritual artifacts. There might even be secret realms or caves. He wanted to find as many good things as possible for Ya Ya within his capabilities. Unexpectedly, he actually found something. Although there were no herbs, spiritual artifacts, or caves, he found a source of fire that allowed Ya Ya to draw fire into her body.

"Never thought about it? Hmph, you haven't thought about it now, but you will in the future!" Ya Ya wasn't going to let him off so easily. He was thinking of protecting her, and so was she. Without his company, what was the point of her cultivation? What was the meaning of the long years without him? Even if he was slightly injured, she wouldn't want to. Opportunities are rare and hard to come by; Ya Ya had never thought of forcing anything, let alone risking his life.

"Just forgive me this once, okay? I hunted a fifth-tier pheasant from the back mountain. Don't you like fresh food? I specially stewed half with spirit mushrooms and roasted the other half. It'll be absolutely delicious." The beauty was angry, so she quickly tried to appease Ya Ya first.

Chapter 106

"No!" Ya Ya turned her head away, refusing to look at him. No, no! She wasn't someone who couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food!

She wasn't angry that he went to explore the secret realm; she knew that cultivators should actively seek opportunities while cultivating. She was angry that he had kept these things from her. They were lovers, husband and wife; what couldn't they tell each other? Humph, if she didn't teach him a lesson this time, Ya Ya was sure he would do it again!

"I won't do it again next time, please forgive me, okay?" Since the food plan didn't work, Li Yuanbai decided to use his charm, sacrificing himself.

"There's a next time?" Ya Ya glared at him. He dared to do it again!

"No, absolutely not a next time." Holding Ya Ya, Li Yuanbai swayed, knowing he could be affectionate with his little woman.

"If there's a next time, I'll be like you, not telling you where I'm going or what I'm doing!" Words were useless; if he did it again, fine, he would too.

"No, do you hear me? I won't!" Li Yuanbai was startled, hugging Ya Ya tightly. He finally understood Ya Ya's anger.

"Hmph, I won't, but you did it anyway." Even good-tempered people can have a bigger temper when they get angry, and Ya Ya was like that now.

"There's no future, don't be angry anymore, okay?" Understanding Ya Ya's feelings, Li Yuanbai truly meant what he said this time. He didn't want Ya Ya and himself to worry about each other's whereabouts. The cultivation world was already full of both maximum opportunities and dangers, enough to make people anxious. There was really no need to add to the worry over such a small matter.

"I'm hungry, is it hungry too?" Ya Ya grinned mischievously, already sitting on him, she twisted her body deliberately, not satisfied, her little hand slid down, touching him through his clothes, a blatant teasing.

"Whether it's hungry or not, Ya Ya knows best." Li Yuanbai pushed upwards. Neither of them wore thick clothes; Li Yuanbai wore a blue robe over his undergarments, and Ya Ya wore a yellow dress. When Ya Ya squeezed his penis, it immediately grew large and hot. Even through the clothes, Ya Ya could feel the eager heat of his penis.

Ya Ya smiled without saying a word, sliding off Li Yuanbai, spreading his legs, and kneeling between them. Her belt was undone, revealing his enormous, monstrous penis. Although they had already made love many times, Ya Ya still couldn't help but swallow hard at the sight of this large penis. Were women really made of water? Capable of encompassing everything?

She raised an eyebrow, giving Li Yuanbai a reproachful look with eyes full of spring-like allure. She tilted her kneeling body to the side, lightly resting on one of Li Yuanbai's legs. But "resting on" was a misnomer; Ya Ya had already planned it. It was more accurate to say she was resting directly on the groin of Li Yuanbai's thigh. The pubic hair between Li Yuanbai's legs was almost touching Ya Ya's face. Because of this, each time Ya Ya's warm breath swept over this pubic hair, it made his penis even more taut, the glans becoming even more bluish-purple, glistening with tiny sparkles.

Li Yuanbai thought that Ya Ya was so close because she wanted her little mouth to embrace his burning desire, but instead, it was Ya Ya's hand that came first. No problem, consider it an appetizer.

Ya Ya's hand couldn't even grasp Li Yuanbai's penis, but that didn't matter. The point wasn't to hold it, but to continue teasing it, making it even more eager.

Her hand didn't move downwards, but stopped at the glans, gently touching the bluish-purple head, which was still wet with blood. Ya Ya never had long nails; after touching it, she gently pinched and flicked it, successfully eliciting a muffled groan from Yuanbai. Was this torture?

"Ya Ya—" In a hoarse voice, Li Yuanbai only wanted one thing: to thrust himself into this woman's body and ravage her!

"Do you want it?" She breathed hot air onto his penis, looking up at him.

"It's the most honest thing, look, it's always so eager." He moved the glans slightly, then released it and stood up.

"But I don't want to! I'm so hungry, I need to eat!" Clapping her hands, Ya Ya left triumphantly. Serves you right for not telling me!

Li Yuanbai smiled bitterly, his lower body throbbing uncomfortably, yet he couldn't have what he wanted. He patted his manhood, thinking, "I guess I'll just have to bear it. Is this what they call reaping what I sowed?"

Chapter 107

"Ya Ya, how is it? The taste is alright, isn't it? Pheasants are delicious and possess spiritual energy, so they're hunted a lot, resulting in generally low-grade pheasants. This is the first time I've ever seen a fifth-tier one." Unable to have what he wanted, he could only give up. He had to admit he was in the wrong, and not only could he not show any displeasure, but he also had to continue to be careful, pampering,

and coaxing Ya Ya. "So delicious!" Ya Ya had just been burning with desire, but the frustration of not getting what he wanted had mostly subsided. The delicious food extinguished the last bit of fire in her mouth. Ya Ya believed that after this outburst, he would never do this again, and that was enough.

“Ordinary pheasants are sold outside; you can buy them if you want. Higher-grade ones are just a matter of luck.” After giving Ya Ya a bowl of broth, Li Yuanbai quickly put the roasted pheasant meat into her bowl, adding some bright green vegetables—a perfect balance of meat and vegetables, neither too greasy nor too bland.

“Next time Ya Ya wants more, let’s go catch some together!” Seeing Ya Ya give him a half-smile, Li Yuanbai quickly added, afraid she’d remember what happened earlier and get angry again.

“I didn’t mean to stop you from going—” Ya Ya put down her chopsticks, her eyes reddening.

“I know, I know. I’ll tell you where we go from now on, okay?” He hugged her, gently patting her back, his heart overflowing with happiness. Being valued by the one he loved meant he was important to her.

“Tsk—am I being too petty?” Ya Ya smiled through her tears, feeling embarrassed.

"No matter what Ya Ya does, I like her!" Li Yuanbai was both amused and exasperated. Well, in front of Ya Ya, only Ya Ya was right; there was no wrong, and all the fault lay with him.

"You're so annoying!" Ya Ya lightly punched him, but still obediently snuggled into his arms.

"Are you full?" He patted Ya Ya's little tummy.

"No!" Ya Ya slapped his paw away, trying to get off him. How could Ya Ya, who loved food, not eat such delicious pheasant!

"But I'm hungry." Just now, the beauty was angry and couldn't have what she wanted, but now that she was in a good mood, surely she could get what she wanted. "

Disciple Wu Mei of Chixian Peak requests an audience with True Lord Qingluo." Unfortunately, just as the beauty wanted him to get his wish, someone else interfered. The communication stone flashed, and the voice that came through poured cold water on Li Yuanbai's hopes.

"Damn it! I'm sealing the mountain, sealing off the rocks!" Burying his head in Ya Ya's shoulder, Li Yuanbai gritted his teeth. What was it now? What Chi Xian Peak? He'd never even been in contact with them! Qingluo Peak was deserted, yet he still couldn't find peace. Chi Xian Peak, with whom he had no connection, had sent people to his door. Li Yuanbai didn't know how many more would come.

"Hehe—" Ya Ya covered her mouth and chuckled, unable to eat again.

However, Chi Xian Peak, Chi Xian Zhenjun, this Zhenjun possessed a single fire-elemental spiritual root, known for his fiery temper and stubbornness. Yuanbai had mentioned him before; his surname was Wu, and all his disciples were from the Wu family. He never accepted outsiders. Yuanbai had never had anything to do with such a person. They were nominally from the same sect, but in reality, they had no interaction whatsoever.

Before Yuan Bai broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, True Monarch Chi Xian disdained to associate with him. After breaking through, Yuan Bai didn't give him a chance to visit before going on his travels. Now, what was the meaning of his visit? Ya Ya and Yuan Bai couldn't guess for a moment.

Sealing the communication stone and Qingluo Peak were just angry words spoken by Li Yuan Bai in frustration. Any man would be annoyed if he was thwarted twice in a row. Since it was just angry talk, he couldn't really seal the stone and the mountain. Since the person had come to his doorstep, he could only let him in.

When the person came in, Li Yuan Bai's face darkened even more. This woman was clearly the one who had blocked him halfway that day. No wonder she looked somewhat familiar in the communication stone.

He had never liked Chi Xian Peak. They only accepted disciples from their own sect. Humph, using the name of Taixu Sect to do their own thing. No matter what others thought, he despised such people!

When he saw Wu Mei, he was even more disdainful. If he hadn't remembered that she was from the same sect, he would have almost kicked her out on the spot.

"What is it?" Even if Wu Mei lowered her posture and became more humble, it wouldn't change Li Yuanbai's disgust.

Ya Ya glanced at Li Yuanbai with some surprise. She knew he disliked Chi Xianfeng, but now it seemed even worse. This was Chi Xianfeng's first interaction; it was impossible for him to have developed such strong aversion so quickly. So, the problem lay with this female disciple. Since her cultivation level was unclear, it meant it was higher than hers. She wondered how she had offended Yuanbai. What had happened? Ya Ya paid close attention to this female disciple named Wu Mei. Well, she didn't know until she looked closely. Ya Ya was furious. It turned out this woman had set her sights on her man!

Chapter 108:

This woman was completely ignoring her existence, wasn't she? Her flirtatious eyes were glued to Yuanbai. She wasn't afraid others wouldn't know her intentions, she was afraid others wouldn't know, especially that she herself wouldn't know, right? Was she here to show off?

Ya Ya almost laughed out of anger. What was she using to provoke her? The news of her and Yuan Bai's upcoming dual cultivation ceremony after the sect competition had already been relayed to all sects via the communication stone; it was a done deal. What more did she want? Right, there was a way: substitution.

If she really had this idea, Ya Ya would laugh for her. Was she some kind of merchandise, to be replaced so easily? A bewitching spell? Fine, then first cultivate your cultivation to be a little higher than Yuan Bai's. Otherwise, playing these tricks in front of Yuan Bai was just courting death.

"Disciple, on Master's orders, specially invites True Lord to attend tomorrow's Chi Xian Peak banquet." As if oblivious to Li Yuan Bai and Ya Ya's disgust, Wu Mei's gaze remained fixed on Li Yuan Bai, never leaving him.

This banquet was supposedly for Qingluo Zhenjun Li Yuanbai, but only Wu Mei and her master knew that it was specifically for Li Yuanbai. Wu Mei had never hidden her feelings for Li Yuanbai since his return. Others knew, and of course, her master knew. If her disciple admired someone of mediocre talent, Chixian Zhenjun would certainly not agree. What a joke! How could her most promising disciple be matched with a mediocre person? But Li Yuanbai was different. Even Chixian Zhenjun, who was never one to admit defeat, had to admire him. He was just an ordinary person with three spiritual roots. Logically speaking, someone with such a low-grade spiritual root would be lucky to even reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Yet, Li Yuanbai had managed to reach the Nascent Soul stage in just over twenty years, and was about to break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage again. Even someone with only a fire spiritual root like him couldn't achieve such speed.

Therefore, upon learning of his disciple's intentions, True Monarch Chixian, a man of exceptional talent, immediately agreed without hesitation. As a disciple of the Taixu Sect and a member of the Wu family, bringing such a promising son-in-law to the Wu family would only benefit their future. The banquet was a prelude to proposing the dual cultivation ceremony, making their relationship legitimate. As for the woman Li Yuanbai brought back, that was irrelevant; if he liked her, she could be his maid, her life or death

entirely at his discretion. In True Monarch Chixian's eyes, Wu Mei was his prized disciple, possessing a single-spiritual-root fire body, her future was limitless. Wu Mei and Li Yuanbai were a match made in heaven, and Li Yuanbai had no reason to refuse. Therefore, the banquet and the proposal were, in True Monarch Chixian's view, merely a formality.

"No time!" Li Yuanbai replied impatiently. He had always been this way; everyone was used to it. It would be strange if he were genuinely friendly. However, this behavior saved Li Yuanbai a lot of trouble; a cold face resolved everything.

Wu Mei stared dumbfounded at Li Yuanbai, her flirtatious gaze vanishing in an instant. He was indeed a True Lord, but how dare a mere newcomer to the True Lord realm refuse a senior who had held the position for many years! Wu Mei couldn't do such a thing. She was arrogant and domineering, but that was based on bullying the weak and fearing the strong. When facing an opponent stronger than her, Wu Mei would never dare to be arrogant.

"True Lord—" Then Wu Mei didn't know what to say, and could only stare blankly at Li Yuanbai, at her beloved, the man she thought would become her future husband.

"Go back!" Li Yuanbai didn't have the elegance of politely dismissing guests, and besides, a direct attack was more effective against a woman with ill intentions.

"Disciple Chen Yijun of Taixu Peak requests an audience with True Lord Qingluo."

Ya Ya chuckled unkindly, wondering if it was yet another one!

Chapter 109

It's really not fair to blame her for being unkind. When Ya Ya saw through Wu Mei's little scheme, she was thinking of throwing a tantrum, but Li Yuanbai didn't give her the chance, directly eliminating Wu Mei. So, she could only watch the show unfold, one scene after another.

She just wondered if Yuanbai was always this charming or if his popularity had only increased since his return?

Ya Ya was amused, but Wu Mei's expression was extremely unpleasant. What was Chen Yijun doing here! Did she want to compete with her for the True Lord position? Thinking of this possibility, Wu Mei's gaze towards Chen Yijun as she entered was practically spitting fire.

"What is it?" Regardless of who it was—whether it was Wu Mei, whom he already disliked, or this female disciple he had no recollection of—Li Yuanbai's attitude was the same.

"This disciple, by order of True Lord Taixu, cordially invites True Lord Qingluo to the banquet at Taixu Peak three days from now." This task was offered by Chen Yijun herself. Unlike Wu Mei, who, due to her single-spiritual-root fire body and her status as a Wu family disciple, was immediately accepted as a disciple by True Lord Chixian, Chen Yijun was merely sent to Taixu Peak because she had reached Foundation Establishment. She was simply a disciple of the Taixu Sect and not qualified to be True Lord Taixu's disciple.

True Lord Taixu, who was on par with the Taixu Sect, was a true genius unseen in a hundred generations. True Lord Taixu possessed a mutated lightning spiritual root, and although he was younger than the current True Lord Qingluo, his cultivation was already at the late Nascent Soul stage. Everyone unanimously believed that True Lord Taixu would be the youngest Nascent Soul stage expert. Such a person was not someone ordinary people dared to even dream of. True Lord Chixian dared not, Wu Mei dared not, and Chen Yijun dared not either.

Compared to True Lord Taixu, Li Yuanbai, who was just as ordinary as them, was indeed easier to be considered.

"What is it?" Compared to the arrogant and conceited True Monarch Chi Xian, Li Yuanbai had no ill feelings towards True Monarch Tai Xu, but they had no dealings with each other. Before he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, True Monarch Tai Xu was already the greatest pride of the Tai Xu Sect, a person of extraordinary talent. How could he, an ordinary disciple with three spiritual roots, possibly have any dealings with such a genius?

"This disciple is unaware; this disciple is merely an ordinary disciple of Taixu Peak." Chen Yijun tried her best to conceal the dejection in her tone. It wasn't that Chen Yijun hadn't considered pursuing Taixu Zhenjun, but several unintentional attempts had failed. She always felt that Taixu Zhenjun's occasional glances at her were filled with cold indifference, which completely extinguished her audacious idea. Instead, she focused all her attention on Li Yuanbai. If Li Yuanbai fell in love with her, even Taixu Zhenjun couldn't do anything to her. Therefore, she was determined to have Li Yuanbai!

It must be said that Li Yuanbai's common background made him more likely to become a popular idol and a popular suitor.

"I understand." Li Yuanbai waved his hand. Although his attitude was still incredibly cold, Ya Ya, who knew him well, could tell that compared to his previous dislike of Wu Mei, he was much better now.

Chen Yijun and Wu Mei came out of Qingluo Peak together. As soon as they emerged, Wu Mei couldn't hold back any longer.

"Why are you here? Is there no one else on Taixu Peak?" Wu Mei's tone was unfriendly. If others didn't know her feelings for True Monarch Qingluo, that would be one thing—Taixu Sect is so big, it's possible they didn't know—but Chen Yijun was different! She had never hidden her thoughts from her. She never expected that the person she treated like a sister would stab her in the back. Well, well, very well!

"Originally, it was Senior Sister Rou who came. I know what Mei'er is thinking. How could she let another woman come into contact with True Monarch Qingluo? So, I offered to help." Chen Yijun spoke with conviction.

"Yijun, I misunderstood you. You're so good to me!" Wu Mei was indeed happy to hear this. Yijun had blocked a potential rival for her. Now, the woman beside True Monarch Qingluo was the one she needed to deal with first. She couldn't let another woman jump in and cause trouble. Mentioning another woman, Wu Mei still looked at Chen Yijun with unease.

“Mei’er, you know, my heart is completely devoted to True Lord Taixu. Even if I’m not worthy, I won’t regret it.” As she spoke, Chen Yijun’s face gradually showed sadness.

“I’m sorry, Yijun, I shouldn’t have brought up your sad story. But it’s okay, we’ll work together. What’s wrong with True Lord Taixu? He’s been through the same thing as us. There’s nothing we can’t do!” Wu Mei had almost forgotten that Chen Yijun’s heart already belonged to someone else. This way, she was truly at peace.

The two left hand in hand, reluctantly parting to return to their respective peaks. It was just a pity that Wu Mei didn’t see the cold smile in Chen Yijun’s eyes after she turned away.

“Yuan Bai doesn’t like True Lord Chixian?” With no outsiders on Qingluo Peak, Ya Ya finally asked the question that had been bothering her.

“Ya Ya noticed it too.” Li Yuan Bai always thought he had long since hidden his emotions, and no one had ever been able to read his emotions. He didn’t expect that Ya Ya had still noticed. Was this what they called being on the same wavelength?

Chapter 110

"Hmph!" Ya Ya was arrogant, raising her head triumphantly. "You're kidding, how could I not know about such a small matter! I know everything about you!

" "True Lord Chi Xian is extremely protective of his own family. There's no one on Chi Xian Peak except for the Wu family. His invitation to me is obviously not for anything good; it's nothing more than how to benefit him or his family. I have no interest in getting involved." True Lord Chi Xian's character is well-known; you don't need to inquire carefully. Li Yuanbai has never liked his style, so there's no need to deal with him. "

This True Lord Chi Xian is in the late Nascent Soul stage, right?" Dislike aside, this person's strength is undeniable; they are no match for True Lord Chi Xian now.

"Don't worry, Ya Ya. Many people become more timid the more they cultivate. Chi Xian is such a person. He wants to enter and exit the body, but he's even more afraid of unexpected accidents. Although I can't defeat him, if I'm pushed to the limit, I'm capable of doing something that will kill us all. He probably doesn't want to see that happen. We cultivators need to know our own strength and act within our capabilities, but we can't lose our courage and basic principles of conduct. For these reasons, we should do things even if we know they're impossible. Without integrity, how can we stand in the world? Regardless of whether I can achieve the Great Dao, I can't go with the flow and pollute the world's eyes and my own heart. Does cultivating mean we can't distinguish between good and bad? I can't do that, and I can't disregard my own conscience to pursue the Great Dao." Although he had experienced too much indifference and ruthlessness in the world, Li Yuanbai remained true to himself and never wavered or lost himself. The Dao he sought was the Dao that was in accordance with his conscience. He never stooped to using dirty and despicable means. Even in the most difficult times, he adhered to his conscience. This was the most basic principle for the Great Dao he sought.

"Ya Ya understands. However, Yuan Bai seems to have a good impression of True Lord Taixu. Do Yuan Bai and True Lord Taixu get along well?" Yuan Bai's words not only demonstrated his own integrity but also subtly benefited Ya Ya, reminding her to act with a clear conscience.

"We've never talked. It's just that Taixu is always gentle and polite, whether he's like that in public or in private. Compared to the undisguised Chi Xian, at least Taixu is someone people are willing to associate with. Besides, his talent is there, and his cultivation is there. At the Nascent Soul stage, there's really no need to worry too much. Chi Xian doesn't care at all, while Taixu remains consistent. Perhaps this is his nature. In any case, when he comes to me, at least his purpose isn't as obvious as Chi Xian's. I don't even need to guess what he wants. That's why I was ambiguous." "I accepted Taixu's invitation but directly rejected Chixian's. With Taixu, even if I went, whether I accepted or not was up to him. With Chixian, in his eyes, accepting was an honor, and refusing was considered ungrateful. To avoid trouble, the best approach was simply not to go." Li Yuanbai meticulously analyzed the pros and cons for Ya Ya. He was indifferent to human relationships, but that didn't mean he didn't understand them; he was just too lazy to deal with them. Rather than worrying about these things, it was better to focus that energy on cultivation. Cultivation, of course, required concentration on cultivation itself. Cultivation wasn't about deceit and scheming against countless people; you couldn't cultivate through such

means. "Yuanbai, shouldn't you also talk about Wu Mei, the disciple of True Man Chixian, hmm?" Ya Ya pushed Li Yuanbai down onto the recliner, grabbing his collar, arrogant and domineering. "Tell me the truth, and I'll be lenient depending on my mood; resist and you'll be punished!" After finishing with the main point, Ya Ya didn't forget the younger one; she couldn't forget the affectionate look on his face.

"Hmph, even a fool would know this isn't the first time she's seen Yuan Bai. Fine, she really thinks I don't exist!

" "Hehe, it was the day the sect leader told me to go and inform him of my teachings. I got blocked on my way back, and I promise, I left without a word!" Yuan Bai smiled ingratiatingly, completely lacking any semblance of a master's demeanor. In front of his beloved wife, all pretense of dignity was meaningless.

"Hmph, let's go!" She pulled Li Yuan Bai to his feet. She had been grabbing his collar earlier, but now that he was standing, she grabbed his belt instead.

"Ya Ya, where are we going?"

"To cultivate together! Anyone who dares to covet my man, Li Yiyi's man, will be punished!"

Chapter 111

Today, Ya Ya truly witnessed the cruelty of the cultivation world for the first time. For any resource, even Qi Refining disciples dared not relax. Even though most people could not succeed on the path from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, no one gave up on themselves. Ya Ya could imagine that if Qi Refining disciples were like this, then Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul cultivators would probably have to work even harder than Qi Refining disciples. The higher one went, the more difficult it became, and the more effort was required. This realization made Ya Ya truly feel a sense of urgency. If you don't work hard, you will be eliminated.

Wu Mei's arrival further spurred Ya Ya on. Although she knew she needed strong self-defense capabilities to stand with Yuan Bai, she hadn't faced a crisis before. Often, understanding something in your heart is one thing, but lacking the motivation or awareness of danger to act on it is another. Wu Mei's appearance gave Ya Ya that motivation, because she truly experienced the feeling of crisis. She was Li Yuan Bai's woman, and it was Yuan Bai's duty to protect her, but Yuan Bai was also her, Li Yi Yi's, man. She also had to be able to crush any intruders who dared to covet her man, whether woman or man, they would all be crushed!

For cultivation, dual cultivation was naturally the best. They were currently practicing the Yin-Yang Chaos Technique. Without another word, he pulled her into the house.

"Ya Ya!" Li Yuan Bai raised an eyebrow. This wild Ya Ya was quite something!

"Do you like it?" Ya Ya pinned Li Yuanbai to the bed, straddling him and looking down at her man. Dare to say no? Today she'd go for something more extreme!

"I love it!" How could he not? His Ya Ya, he loved everything!

"You'll like it even more!" Since he was so sensible, she'd go for something mild today.

Ya Ya first unbuttoned Li Yuanbai's outer robe. With a few quick movements, it tore into four shreds. This wasn't a hasty tear; it would be very useful later. Through Li Yuanbai's undergarments, Ya Ya gently twisted her body, subtly rubbing against his genitals—his waist, hips, legs, and feet. Finally, she crawled to Li Yuanbai's head, clearly hearing her lover swallow. Satisfied, she smiled and removed her own outer robe. If it weren't for the fact that their dual cultivation after lovemaking was best done naked, so... The vital energy within her body flowed smoothly, and the heat generated dissipated through every inch of her skin. Without these factors, Ya Ya would have wanted to engage in a domineering performance.

She took off her outer garment, then her undergarments, lying naked on top of Li Yuanbai. To achieve her goal, she wasn't just taking off her clothes for nothing; her round breasts rose and fell against Li Yuanbai's face. Li Yuanbai's penis quickly reacted, erecting a small tent through his underpants, the fabric around the tent perfectly intact.

"Ya Ya—" Li Yuanbai tried to reach out and hug Ya Ya, only to find his hands bound to the headboard at either end.

"Today I am the master, you are not allowed to use magic to untie me!" The rules were stated first; if magic was used, everything else would be meaningless before him.

"Yes, my master, I am at your mercy!" Li Yuanbai then remembered Ya Ya's wild behavior earlier. Hmm, let's try it!

"Good, Master will pamper you later!" Patting Li Yuanbai's cheek, Ya Ya was satisfied with Li Yuanbai's continued understanding.

Turning herself over, she presented her little hole to his face, and as she crawled towards the foot of the bed, Li Yuanbai seemed to see his beloved little hole opening and closing to welcome him. Especially when Ya Ya's hand passed over his penis, she deliberately touched it, causing Li Yuanbai's body to twist unconsciously. He was enjoying the thrill of fucking without any foreplay!

Unfortunately, today he could only be his master's little servant, waiting for his master's favor. So Li Yuanbai was even more upset. As he was upset, his body twisted even more, only to realize that his feet were also tied to the ends of the foot of the bed by Ya Ya. He was lying on the bed in a spread-eagle position. Hehe, I forgot, there should be a dot on top of the spread-eagle position. Even though his underpants were still on, it still couldn't be hidden. It should be said that he was tied to the bed by Ya Ya in a spread-eagle position!

Chapter 112

"Ya Ya, let me have it, okay?" The unattainable desire made Li Yuanbai incredibly aroused, almost to the point of forcing himself. Thankfully, he remembered Ya Ya's words: no magic.

"No, Daddy, won't it be better if I serve you properly?" After binding Yuanbai's legs, Ya Ya nestled against his chest, her eyes filled with seductive allure. Not only was Li Yuanbai aroused, but Ya Ya was too.

"Okay," Li Yuanbai was once again successfully seduced, but by the time he realized it, it was too late; the words had already left his mouth.

"That's a good girl, a good Daddy for Ya Ya." Kissing Li Yuanbai, Ya Ya quickly removed his clothes, bent down, and took one of his nipples into her mouth, sucking and pulling it up with her teeth. She didn't neglect the other nipple either, kneading and rubbing it until her teeth marks were left on Li Yuanbai's chest. Only then did Ya Ya stop, then turned around and bit the other nipple, rubbing the one with the teeth marks.

"Hiss—" Li Yuanbai gasped. He hadn't used his cultivation; Ya Ya was too wild!

"Daddy, how was it? Was it fun? Hehe, don't rush, there's more to come!" Finally, after Li Yuanbai's nipples were swollen and red, Ya Ya let go of them, lightly lifting Yuanbai's chin with her fingers. Don't rush, this is just the beginning.

Starting from Yuanbai's neck, Ya Ya nibbled and bit her way down, not stopping until she saw bruises. It was just a pity that after a while, they practiced together, and all the bruises disappeared. Otherwise, how would he face people tomorrow? Hehe!

But it didn't matter; the important thing was that he had experienced SM.

Ya Ya was having a blast, and Li Yuanbai was also wondering about his own reaction. Did he also like this wild Ya Ya? After the initial pain, an indescribable pleasure raged through his body, until later he even hoped for more pain to get a stronger pleasure. One side was fire, the other water; Li Yuanbai felt that this was indeed a unique experience sometimes.

She pinched Li Yuanbai's strong waist hard, then flicked his penis lightly before stepping off him.

"Good Daddy, wait, there's something even more fun!" A moment later, Ya Ya returned carrying a lit candle.

Li Yuanbai blinked. Ya Ya, could this be what you want to play with?

"Daddy, you're so smart!" Seeing Yuanbai's expression, she knew he had already thought of it. Ya Ya thought even further ahead. Should she try it on little Yuanbai? Anyway, he'd recover in a bit. But then she thought better of it. Little Yuanbai's ability to stand tall and proud was half physical and half psychological. What if something went wrong with his mind? It wouldn't be good. Little Yuanbai's future wasn't just her father's concern; it also affected Ya Ya's future sexual happiness. For her own sake, Ya Ya decided to let little Yuanbai go.

I wonder if Li Yuanbai will be glad when he finds out. Ya Ya was right. These wax drops on little Yuanbai will hurt him a lot, maybe even leave him with psychological trauma. Even if he's a Nascent Soul cultivator, Li Yuanbai still needs to temper his mind. So, if it's really done, whether little Yuanbai will be as proud and spirited as he is now is hard to say.

"Hiss—" Li Yuanbai gasped again. Without using his cultivation, this was too stimulating. Ya Ya knew to proceed gradually. The biting earlier was nothing compared to the burning pain now. Before long, Li Yuanbai's entire chest and legs were covered with wax marks of all sizes. Ya Ya looked at these wax marks and felt an indescribable pleasure. Waiting for the wax to dry before picking them off was so satisfying!

"Daddy, are you enjoying it? Ya Ya is so happy!" Kissing Yuanbai's eyes, Ya Ya threw away the candle. Her father's body was still hot after the wax marks were removed. Ya Ya lay on Yuanbai's chest, feeling so warm.

Without even touching her, Ya Ya knew her lower body was wet, very wet. She could feel the moisture flowing down between her legs. As for Yuan Bai's penis, she had been paying close attention. Her father must also be enjoying this pleasure mixed with pain, otherwise why would Yuan Bai's penis always be looking for every opportunity to poke at her? Hehe.

"Don't rush, Daddy, the final show is about to begin!" He got up again, this time with a whip. It wasn't too thin, because if it were too thin, it would hurt too much, and she would feel sorry for him. It wasn't too thick either, because if it were thick, would it still be a whip?

Holding Yuan Bai's large penis, Ya Ya slowly sat down until she completely took Yuan Bai's large penis into her body.

The two of them sighed with satisfaction at the same time. No matter how tempting the foreplay was, it couldn't compare to the comfort of being filled by each other at this moment.

"Crack—" With a flick of her wrist, the whip landed on Yuan Bai's body, and Yuan Bai's reaction was that his large penis inside Ya Ya trembled.

Ya Ya's body trembled as well. Before she could continue, a wave of pleasure washed over her. SM was too stimulating!

Chapter 113

"Faster, Daddy, faster!" Stimulated by the trembling she had just experienced, Ya Ya's whip had already uncontrollably lashed out at Li Yuanbai again. One tremor was not enough for Ya Ya; she wanted more.

Although it hurt, Li Yuanbai had long forgotten what it felt like to be bitten by Ya Ya at the beginning. He was almost forgetting the pain from the wax drips, and compared to the pain from the whip, the wax drips were nothing. However, like Ya Ya, as the pain intensified, the pleasure surging within him grew stronger. With each swing of the whip, the pain grew heavier, and his body moved involuntarily, causing his penis, already inserted into Ya Ya, to throb. Although he lacked the usual vigor of taking control, this feeling had its own unique charm, a subtle pleasure that could only be experienced firsthand.

As the pleasure intensified, Ya Ya swung the whip faster and faster, until finally, the two reached their ultimate ecstasy with the sound of the whip cracking.

After the ecstasy, Ya Ya lay motionless on Yuanbai. Being a queen was tiring, and whipping was hard work. Next time, she'd let Yuanbai do the work; she'd simply spread her legs and wait for the pleasure.

"Ya Ya, can Daddy let go now?" This feeling was pleasurable, but not enough, far from enough. He wanted more, deeper, to penetrate Ya Ya's body deeply, to thrust into her hard. Li Yuanbai still wanted it, but in his current state, he couldn't do it. He could only do it if he took the initiative. However, he had promised Ya Ya not to use magic beforehand, so he would only release his restraints if Ya Ya agreed. If Ya Ya didn't agree, he would continue, it would just be pushing the time back a little.

"Mmm," Ya Ya was completely exhausted, limp and soft, letting out a soft moan. She had gone to great lengths to bind him, but she didn't have the strength to let go. Without the energy of lovemaking, she was just an ordinary little woman, of course she was tired. This was something they had agreed on long ago: during lovemaking, they would experience pleasure and fatigue like ordinary people, and during dual cultivation, they would become cultivators again.

"Daughter, let Daddy do it, okay?" With a flick of his hand, the cloth strips binding his hands shattered into pieces. He rolled over, holding Ya Ya, and pinned her beneath him. Once wasn't enough. Even just ordinary pleasures were fine. He, Li Yuanbai, was the strongest ordinary man, with the strongest waist, representing powerful thrusts and the strongest sexual desire. Once wasn't enough!

"I don't want to!" Ya Ya glared. She still had the strength. She had done those things earlier, and it was fine with him, it was her pleasure, but she didn't want it done on herself—it hurt. "

How could I bear to do those things? Ya Ya just needs to lie down, okay?" As he spoke, he spread her legs apart, thrusting his hips forward, his penis sliding into Ya Ya's body. Forget foreplay, he had already done enough. He just needed to get to the point. As for the wild biting, wax dripping, whipping, and the like, he truly couldn't bear to do them.

"Faster, faster, Daddy, faster—" Clinging to his neck, Ya Ya wanted more. Yuan Bai wanted to fuck her hard, and she wanted to experience that feeling of being fucked hard by Yuan Bai, thrusting into the deepest part of her body again and again, letting her truly feel his presence, his love.

"No, Yuan Bai, slow, slow down—" But his unyielding strength finally made her, who had become an ordinary little woman, unable to bear it any longer. She melted into a pool of spring water in his arms, half-moaning and half-weeping. The

tranquil Qingluo Peak was bathed in a thick, warm, peach-colored glow because of the two's endless lovemaking, making the two of them never feel lonely.

06-28 Chapter 114

"Shanrou, your master asks you to go to Qingluo Peak to host a banquet for True Lord Qingluo. Has True Lord Qingluo accepted?" True Lord Taixu returned from the main peak of the sect and saw his eldest disciple as soon as he entered the peak.

"Master, Senior Brother Zhou from Huiying Peak just came over, so I stayed behind and asked Junior Sister Yijun to go in my place." After Li Yuanbai broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, the Taixu Sect officially had five Nascent Soul experts: Sect Leader Zhou of the main peak, True Person Taixu of Taixu Peak, True Person Chixian of Chixian Peak, True Person Qingluo of Qingluo Peak, Li Yuanbai, and the only female Nascent Soul True Monarch, True Monarch Huiying.

True Monarch Huiying had entered the Nascent Soul stage long ago, but her cultivation progress was very slow. To this day, her cultivation had only just reached the late stage of the early Nascent Soul stage, and she had not yet reached perfection. Cultivation is indeed a very mysterious thing. Some people have smooth sailing in Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and even Golden Core, but once they enter the Nascent Soul stage, they almost stagnate. Just like True Monarch Huiying, she became famous at a young age, and whether it was Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, or Golden Core, she achieved them all in one fell swoop. The age at which she entered the Nascent Soul stage was almost comparable to that of Taixu, but now, she, who was originally an elder of Taixu, had become a Taixu. Having been a junior for many years, once Taixu enters the Nascent Soul stage, the young boy who was just beginning to learn cultivation when she was already famous throughout the world will become someone she can only look up to for the rest of her life. And this possibility is very high, because Taixu is now in the late stage of Nascent Soul, and his cultivation has never shown any signs of stagnation. On the other hand, Huiying, although she has been in the Nascent Soul stage for a long time, has been stuck in the early stage for even longer, and is now only at the late stage of the early Nascent Soul stage. If it weren't

for the long lifespan of the Nascent Soul stage, Huiying would probably have already ceased to exist. Whether it is the arrogance of early fame or the stagnation of Nascent Soul cultivation, it has made True Monarch Huiying's temper very bad, on par with True Monarch Chixian. Because of this, knowing that True Monarch Huiying's eldest disciple is coming to Taixu Peak, Shanrou personally entertains her, not daring to be the slightest bit careless, for fear of displeasing True Monarch Huiying and causing unnecessary trouble for her master, True Monarch Taixu.

"Shanrou, how many times have I told you about your temperament? Your indecisiveness and lack of assertiveness will not help your cultivation. It's good that you get along with others, but being too soft-hearted is a weakness. Don't think that just because you and I are only human, even the Great Immortals can't be perfect in every situation. You're thinking about not provoking the ill-tempered True Monarch Huiying, but have you considered neglecting True Monarch Qingluo? You are my eldest disciple, while Chen Yijun is merely a menial disciple of Taixu Peak. Shanrou, do you think her status is sufficient to represent me? And what will True Monarch Qingluo think? True Monarch Qingluo has a good temper and doesn't like to argue, but not arguing doesn't mean not caring. Everyone has their own bottom line of dignity, and True Monarch Qingluo is no exception. Shanrou..." "Do you think what you did today was appropriate? We are both True Lords, yet you, as my eldest disciple Taixu, received True Lord Huiying's disciple, while sending a nobody disciple to True Lord Qingluo. Is that appropriate? Shanrou, I took you as my disciple because I was pleased with your kindness, but sometimes your kindness is self-righteous and excessive. I have told you to change this long ago, but after all these years, you have made no progress. I am very disappointed in what happened today. It seems that I have been too lenient with you in the past. Every time I punished you for these things, it was too lenient, so lenient that you thought you might not have done anything wrong. This time, I will no longer tolerate you. From today onwards, go to Reflect on Your Mistakes Peak and face the wall. When you realize your mistakes and can correct them, come back." After saying this, Taixu left directly.

Shanrou was his first disciple. Because she was the first, and because he knew that even if her nature was too soft, it was because of her kindness, he always intentionally or unintentionally tolerated this disciple. As a result, even after many reminders, she could not truly realize her shortcomings. Indeed, a great disciple still needs a strict teacher.

"True Lord Qingluo, I will be waiting for you and fellow Daoist Li Yi at Taixu Peak in three days." This time, True Lord Taixu personally contacted Li Yuanbai through the communication stone. This tone was his limit; he was a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator and had his dignity.

"Yuanbai, didn't True Lord Taixu send a disciple to say that earlier? Why did you send the message again now?" Ya Ya was confused.

"It's alright, we'll go together in three days." Li Yuanbai smiled. Indeed, it was alright. However, he wasn't interested in what was happening at Taixu.

Chapter 115

"Are we going to watch the competition again today?" Early in the morning, Yuanbai and Ya Ya ate breakfast while talking. The saying "one should not speak while eating or sleeping" never applied to them. On the contrary, they preferred the atmosphere of whispering and the aroma of food.

"Yes, of course I'll go. I go every day. The more I see, the more I learn." Ya Ya swallowed a mouthful of rice porridge. She had already benefited so much on the first day; how could she not continue?

"Go if you want," Yuan Bai said, not intending to stop her. Watching the matches was also a form of learning. As the competition intensified and the strength of both sides increased, Ya Ya would see more and more exciting matches.

"What about you?" Ya Ya raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with amusement, given someone's past misdeeds, even though that person's attitude of admitting their mistake afterward was extremely good.

"I'll wait for you obediently in Youli, I won't go anywhere!" Afraid that Ya Ya would bring up the past again, Yuan Bai's biggest wish right now was for Ya Ya to forget the mistake he made yesterday. Therefore, Yuan Bai's attitude was as good as it could be.

Ya Ya looked at Yuan Bai, suddenly reached out and pinched his cheek, then pulled it, and let go, leaving. Words alone were useless; she'd wait and see his actions. Otherwise, hmph, a whip would be served!

Yuan Bai touched his cheek, watching Ya Ya's retreating figure with a silly grin. Don't worry, dear Ya Ya, he won't go anywhere!

Yuan Bai kept his word. After Ya Ya left, he went to a recliner in the bamboo grove, a cup of tea, an ancient book, leisurely and content. However, after reading for a while, Yuan Bai put down the book, held the teacup, his eyes unfocused, clearly lost in thought.

What did Tai Xu want with him? So cautious indeed. The Chen Yijun who came earlier probably wasn't one of his original agents; otherwise, Taixu wouldn't have personally sent a message to him. Yuan Bai never underestimated himself, nor was he arrogant. Taixu had always been someone to be looked up to—in the past, now, and in the future, he believed he would remain so. Even he held genuine respect for Taixu. Less than half his age, yet his achievements far surpassed his own. Such a powerful figure deserved respect.

However, this slip-up made Yuan Bai chuckle inwardly, adding a touch of humanity to Taixu's image in his mind. Even the strong make mistakes, heh.

Chen Yijun, is that it? Yuan Bai noted the name. Someone who could slip up Taixu's defenses was quite capable, certainly not comparable to the straightforward Wu Mei. Wu Mei needed to be guarded against, but this Chen Yijun needed even more caution.

Returning to the reason Taixu sought him out, what was it about? This matter was so important that it required Taixu's personal intervention. As far as he knew, Taixu was deeply focused on cultivation, which showed the importance of the matter. There was no rush. What he was meant to know, he would know in time; what he wasn't meant to know, he couldn't know no matter how hard he tried. He should just let things take their course. This was the kind of open-mindedness he had taught Ya Ya, and naturally, he was even better at it.

He was strong, but compared to Taixu, he was nothing. Since that was the case, why should he think any further? What Taixu wanted him to know, Taixu would naturally let him know; what he didn't want him to know, he had no ability to get out of Taixu. Therefore, his mind was not disturbed by Taixu's communication.

"The secret realm in the back mountain?" Although he wasn't in a hurry to know why Taixu had contacted him, he had made some guesses, but he hadn't expected the final answer to be like this. He hadn't expected that the mysterious back mountain of the Taixu Sect held so many secrets.

"Yes, the central peak of the back mountain is the entrance to the secret realm. However, it requires five Nascent Soul cultivators to unseal it. It's been many years since the Taixu Sect had five Nascent Soul cultivators, to the point that almost no one among the current disciples knows about it." Taixu explained in detail why he had summoned Li Yuanbai. It wasn't just about Li Yuanbai; since the requirement for unsealing the secret realm was five Nascent Soul cultivators, it was natural for all five to be present.

"Taixu True Monarch is quite tight-lipped. If we didn't have five Nascent Soul cultivators this time, would you have continued to keep it a secret?" Huiying True Monarch sneered, feeling indignant. Why? They were all members of the Taixu Sect, so why did Taixu know all this while she didn't?

"Because I am Taixu True Monarch, and you are not!" Taixu smiled, seemingly unconcerned about Huiying's aggressive words, but his words were like a dagger to the heart. If you had obtained the Taixu title back then, you would naturally know the whole story. Unfortunately, you didn't.

One sentence was enough to turn Huiying's face pale. Taixu was not one to be bullied. He had risen to fame at a young age and his reputation remained undiminished. He was not a pushover.

"If True Monarch Huiying does not wish to participate in this secret realm unsealing, I have no problem with it. I can continue to wait. What if I can wait a hundred years, a second, or a third hundred years?" Unfortunately, even with her face pale, Taixu was not prepared to let Huiying off the hook. He would not rest until she showed some attitude.

Chapter 116

"I am willing to participate." Huiying dared not say anything more, at least not aloud. She was indeed a Nascent Soul cultivator, but who among them was not?

She lowered her stance, and the meeting continued. No one would even consider asking her to apologize. With Huiying's temperament, her words were already a sign of humility. All Taixu wanted was a statement that she would no longer interfere. As for an apology, he hadn't considered it. Even if she apologized verbally, what difference would it make? If she was not convinced, it meant nothing.

"The secret realm in the back mountain opened once a thousand years ago. Back then, our Taixu Sect was fortunate enough to have five Nascent Soul cultivators present, just like we are now. You must not let a small matter cause you to lose the greater good!" Sect Leader Zhou stroked his beard. He also had a headache. The five Nascent Soul cultivators were all there, but their temperaments were truly a headache for him. Chi Xian and Hui Ying, he didn't understand why, even though their cultivation had reached the

Nascent Soul stage, they were still like cannons, ready to explode at the slightest touch. If they had a choice, neither he nor Taixu would have chosen them. But how could they be so lucky to have five Nascent Soul cultivators present? Let alone having more. Oh well, it was already fortunate to encounter such an opportunity at the Nascent Soul stage. The two Nascent Soul stage seniors in the sect didn't have such good fortune at the Nascent Soul stage. Unfortunately, the secret realm only accepts Nascent Soul cultivators; if you're not at the Nascent Soul stage or are past it, it won't work.

As long as the secret realm was opened, that was enough. As for what happened inside, he couldn't care less. None of the five who went in back then came out alive. Opportunity and danger coexist. Everyone has their own fate. Let's take care of ourselves first.

"What's inside the secret realm, nobody knows. Entering isn't a personal decision after it opens. The last time it opened, no one who went in came out alive. So, everyone decides for themselves." This was all Taixu knew. As the inheritor of the title of True Monarch Taixu, he knew more about the secrets of the Taixu Sect than others. Because he inherited the title of True Monarch Taixu, he was the guardian of the Taixu Sect. For him, the biggest secret was this: the secret realm in the back mountain belonged to the Taixu Sect itself. Outsiders weren't qualified to enter, but even among Taixu Sect members, only five Nascent Soul cultivators were allowed. After the secret realm opened, five Nascent Soul cultivators were qualified to enter. Once five Nascent Soul cultivators entered, the secret realm automatically sealed again, waiting for the next time when five Nascent Soul cultivators would open simultaneously. Taixu didn't know how the five Nascent Soul cultivators who entered came out. Last time, only the corpses of five Nascent Soul cultivators suddenly appeared from the sky. Therefore, nobody knew what was inside. All he could do was tell everyone the situation and let them decide for themselves.

"After the Centennial Grand Competition concludes, True Monarch Qingluo will teach Golden Core cultivators on Wuwei Peak for a year. This year will allow those who have decided to enter the Secret Realm to make their own arrangements. After a year, the Secret Realm seal will be opened!" Finally, Sect Leader Zhou made the arrangements. The year was both a time for everyone to make arrangements and a time for consideration.

"Junior Sister Li, this is Senior Brother Leiming under the Sect Leader, the head of the ten core disciples of our Taixu Sect. This is Senior Brother Zhou Ziwei under True Monarch Huiying, also a core disciple of the sect." Because Senior Sister Shanrou was punished by her master to face the wall in seclusion, the task of receiving guests on Taixu Peak today fell to Qianrou. Those who accompanied the True Monarchs were all acquaintances, except for Li Yiyi, the Daoist partner of True Monarch Qingluo of Qingluo Peak. According to cultivation, they were of the same generation, but according to seniority, she would soon be their senior uncle. Therefore, Qianrou unconsciously lowered her guard a bit in her words and actions.

"Senior Brother Lei, Senior Brother Zhou!" Returning the greeting with clasped hands, Ya Ya, seeing their welcoming smiles and initial goodwill, couldn't possibly be arrogant. She was only benefiting from Yuan Bai's presence, but in terms of cultivation, respect was only right.

As for the other person who came with True Monarch Chi Xian, coincidentally, it was Wu Mei again. Wu Mei had already coldly ignored her upon seeing her, so Ya Ya had no interest in keeping her company. If you want respect, you should first show it to others.

Senior Brother Lei, as a single-elemental disciple of the Thunder element and the head of the core disciples, was clearly a leading figure among the younger generation of the Tai Xu Sect, and a future leader. Yet, he possessed no arrogance whatsoever, instead exuding a calm and composed demeanor, his aura a product of years of accumulated experience. Even more unexpected was Senior Brother Zhou, under True Monarch Hui Ying's tutelage. Completely unaffected by True Monarch Hui Ying's volatile temper, he stood there, gentle and refined, a true gentleman.

Ya Ya was observing everyone, and everyone was also observing Ya Ya. Ya Ya had the lowest cultivation level here, so everyone could see that. They weren't curious about that. What they were curious about was what kind of charm had moved the cold-hearted Qingluo Zhenjun's heart. But after observing for a long time, they still couldn't figure it out.

There's no way around it; from her appearance, Ya Ya is really too ordinary. Ordinary looks, ordinary cultivation level. Aside from her slightly better skin and, in the eyes of men like Lei Ming and Zhou Ziwei, a slightly better figure, even those aren't her most outstanding qualities. It's truly incomprehensible what Qingluo Zhenjun's taste is.

Everyone seems to have forgotten one thing: if Qingluo Zhenjun were someone who judged by appearances, he wouldn't be so cold-hearted. As for his story with Ya Ya, without experiencing it firsthand, one can't truly understand their love. Love between lovers is like that; what others see is never the whole story they've shared. Love, too, is like drinking water—only the person drinking knows whether it's hot or cold.

Chapter 117:

"It seems that Taixu Zhenjun still has a lot of influence, able to persuade Qingluo Zhenjun." After finishing his business, Chi Xian finally couldn't hold back his pent-up anger. Hmph, how many years has it been since Chi Xian has seen someone so shameless?

Li Yuanbai simply walked away without any expression or words—his usual style.

Chi Xian's cultivation level was higher than his, one being in the late stage and the other in the early stage. It could be said that he was no match for him. But so what? If he really dared to fight, he would fight. Not winning didn't mean losing. If he wasn't afraid, he was willing to fight to the death. Unfortunately, although Li Yuanbai disdained associating with such a person, he didn't neglect his understanding of him because of his disdain. So, it was a pity. Li Yuanbai knew that Chi Xian was also a person who valued his life, and because he valued his life, he dared not risk it. Since he dared not, what was there to fear? As the saying goes, the barefoot are not afraid of those wearing shoes.

"Yuanbai, go! Why not go! You must go! This is a once-in-a-century opportunity; not going would be foolish!" Ya Ya, after hearing the whole story, didn't hesitate. What was the point of being afraid?

"Ya Ya!" Yuanbai smiled at the person who was even more excited than himself.

"What? Are you afraid I won't let you go?" If you dare say yes, I'll bite you!

"No way, I've never worried about that!" Yuan Bai quickly flattered him. Even if he had wondered if Ya Ya would stop him from going because she was worried about him, he couldn't say it now, no matter what.

"I am worried. The secret realm is easy to go to, but we can't just stay here on Qingluo Peak all day because we're worried about each other. How can we cultivate then? I know you've faced countless difficulties and dangers along the way, Yuan Bai. How could you have gotten to where you are today without experiencing these? So, I won't stop you. I will work hard, and you must work hard too!" Ya Ya lightly punched him. How could she not worry? She had already made up her mind. No matter what day it was, if he was gone, she would follow him, to the heavens and the earth, to the immortal realms and the underworld.

"Don't worry, I will remember that there is someone waiting for me to come back." Li Yuan Bai had always believed that when mortals hold the most unwavering faith, they often have more will to live and hope than others. He had it before for himself, and now he had it even more for him and Ya Ya.

"I'm waiting for you to come back." She hugged him tightly. You must come back!

"After the competition ends, we'll hold our Dual Cultivation Ceremony." He hadn't considered the possibility of postponing the ceremony and having her find another partner if he didn't return. Ya Ya was his, and would only ever be his. The most important thing about taking Ya Ya back to Taixu was that he wanted everyone to know that Li Yi Yi was his, Li Yuanbai's, wife.

"Mm," Ya Ya nodded. It was wonderful; she would soon be his wife.

"We had agreed to go and practice the Fire Induction Technique together after I finished teaching for a year, but that'll have to wait until I return." Yuanbai suddenly remembered this.

"Then we'll wait for you to come back." Ya Ya wasn't in a hurry. Not being able to practice the Fire Induction Technique wasn't a problem; she had so much to learn, she wasn't worried about not having anything to practice.

"After the Qi Refining disciples' competition ends these few days, you need to watch the Foundation Establishment disciples' competition carefully again. They will be of the greatest help to you. As for the Golden Core cultivators' competition, you can watch it, but don't be too obsessed. Their realm is already much higher than yours. It's normal that you don't understand or can't figure it out. You must not get too caught up in it, lest you suffer from qi deviation." There is still a year before entering the secret realm. There is enough time to arrange the time. Focus on the present first. Ya Ya watches the Centennial Grand Competition every day. It's fine for the Qi Refining disciples these few days, but the Foundation Establishment disciples' competition in a few days is the most important for Ya Ya. Yuan Bai is afraid that she will be distracted by watching these few days, so he has to remind her again. He is also afraid that the Golden Core cultivators' competition in a few days will make Ya Ya lose her mind. These are the places where inner demons are most likely to arise. He will remind Ya Ya to be careful about everything he can.

"I remember. Oh, right, I almost forgot to tell you, I ran into Lin Min while watching the competition. Do you remember her? She's the one you asked someone to accompany me to find. It's a pity she lost in the first round. But there's another one, Wu Shufan, who's quite strong. After a few rounds, he's almost qualified for the rankings." These past few days, she's been watching the competition with Lin Min, and their relationship has grown increasingly closer.

"Wu Shufan is a member of the Wu family." He hadn't expected this when he asked someone to come last time. Fortunately, the boy has a decent character, but being associated with the Wu family makes him unconsciously think of Chi Xian Zhenjun, the most powerful figure in the Wu family. There's nothing he can do; he really doesn't like this person.

"I understand. I've only watched his matches these past few days. His attack power is very strong, uh, that's what the tournament guide says." During the few days of competition, she only spent a little more time with Lin Min. As for Wu Shufan, aside from occasionally watching his matches, she had no other interaction. Like Yuan Bai, she preferred minimal contact with the Wu family. However, with Lin Min with her, she couldn't be too obvious. Otherwise, she might not have even watched Wu Shufan's matches, especially after learning more about True Monarch Chi Xian and witnessing Wu Mei's behavior. She really didn't want to have anything to do with the Wu family anymore.

"You can watch the matches of Lei Ming, the sect leader's disciple. He has a lightning-type spiritual root, a very rare single spiritual root. Besides cultivating quickly like other single-root individuals, people with lightning-type spiritual roots have something else that everyone envies. Can you guess what it is?" He wasn't afraid of trouble, but his principle was always to avoid trouble as much as possible and spend most of his time on cultivation. Wu Shufan was a good subject to watch because he was strong, but that didn't mean he was the only one.

"Lightning Tribulation!" Upon hearing about lightning-type spiritual roots, Ya Ya immediately thought of this.

Chapter 118

"Exactly. Lei Ming's spiritual root makes his tribulation easier than others, and his application of lightning is also unique. You should pay more attention to him. As the head of the core disciples of the Tai Xu Sect, he truly deserves the title. He is also the future of the Tai Xu Sect." Yuan Bai's tone was full of undisguised praise for Lei Ming.

"Yuan Bai, don't you want to take on such a powerful disciple yourself?" With tens of thousands of disciples under the Tai Xu Sect, it's impossible for there not to be a good prospect. Even if there isn't one, in such a vast continent as Liuli, as long as word gets out, if True Monarch Qingluo wants to take on disciples, he will surely find a good prospect. Then, a famous teacher will produce a great disciple, wouldn't that be a win-win situation?

"I already have a very powerful disciple." At that time, they had returned to their own home, Qingluo Peak. Holding Ya Ya, there were only the two of them on Qingluo Peak. He liked this environment where it was just the two of them, undisturbed by the outside world. He couldn't escape the troubles of worldly affairs, but at least he could give himself a peaceful home. He could do that.

"Really? I'm amazing? Yes, I am amazing, but this is nothing compared to what I'll achieve later!" Ya Ya looked up at him, her eyes gleaming with undisguised brilliance.

"Ya Ya has even more amazing skills, want to hear them?" He nudged her closer, as if to say, "Darling, do you understand?"

"You scoundrel!" Ya Ya spat at him, calling him a lecherous wolf who was always thinking about that.

"I'm only a scoundrel with you!" He kissed her. Being a rogue is something you do with your lover. Respectful and courteous? What kind of talk is that? Li Yuanbai never cared. Being husband and wife meant warmth and comfort for each other; that was the kind of life he wanted. Otherwise, it was better not to find someone at all; being alone was much more enjoyable.

"Go away, I need to look at the competition guide. I haven't decided which competition to watch tomorrow." Ya Ya pushed Yuanbai away, defeated by him in every way—his shamelessness, his skill.

"Ya Ya, I've made the bamboo in the bamboo grove grow really dense. Shall we go try it out? You promised me last time." Yuan Bai didn't let go. He threw away all the competition guides. He'd been thinking about it ever since he finished setting up the bamboo grove, but Ya Ya still wouldn't budge. There was no one else on Qingluo Peak. He actually wanted to have a passionate lovemaking session with Ya Ya, with the sky as their blanket and the ground as their bed. Hehe, let's start indoors and then move to the bamboo grove.

"When did I promise you?" Ya Ya puffed up her cheeks. She refused to admit it. This guy was always finding ways to have fun in this kind of thing. In the room, they'd tried so many places: on the bed, in the bathroom, later at the dining table, in the study. The more Ya Ya thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt.

"Ya Ya's cheating!" He bit her finger. There was no one else around, what was there to be afraid of? No way, he had to try it.

Looking at this big kid who was now just like a child, and thinking about their separation a year later, Ya Ya gritted her teeth and whispered in his ear.

"Really?!"

"Yes!"

Yuan Bai excitedly hugged Ya Ya and spun her around.

"You can't go back on your word, it's a promise, if you don't, we pinky swear!" He grabbed her hand and they made a pinky promise.

"It's a promise, I remember." Ya Ya rolled her eyes inwardly; she had only cheated once, and he already remembered it.

"Ya Ya, how about we try the bamboo forest now, and then try the grassy area next to it?" Yuan Bai was pushing his luck.

"Go away, I'm hungry." Ya Ya pushed him away, deciding to ignore this guy, this guy who gets all excited over the smallest gesture.

"Okay, Ya Ya, I'm hungry too, let's eat first and then you can feed me, okay?" Yuan Bai was saying these things more and more naturally now, like it was everyday life.

"I'm not hungry!"

As if knowing Ya Ya wasn't hungry, the communication stone sent another message, this time not to Li Yuan Bai, but to Ya Ya. Shan Rou from Tai Xu Peak was looking for Ya Ya and was at the foot of the peak.

"I'm closing the mountain!" Li Yuan Bai gritted his teeth again!

He gritted his teeth and had no choice but to let Ya Ya see the guests. Ya Ya was his wife, not his slave. They embraced each other, but they didn't restrain each other. Ya Ya also needed her own circle. Like him, no matter how cold-hearted he was, he also formed his own circle with Tai Xu and the others. Because of their cultivation levels, it was impossible for them to form a circle with people lower than them. Not to mention him, even someone as approachable as Tai Xu couldn't lower himself to do that. It was a matter of personal dignity. So, now that Ya Ya was starting to have her own circle, he was actually happy.

"The Foundation Establishment disciple competition is in a few days. I know you haven't registered, so I wanted to ask you if you still want to register. This is the only chance to become a core disciple. Are you really not going to give it a try?" Before she met Ya Ya, Shan Rou certainly wouldn't have thought about these things. But after meeting her, they hit it off immediately, and she wanted to consider her friend's feelings. To gain respect in the Tai Xu Sect, one could only rely on their own abilities. She believed that Ya Ya had these abilities, and since she did, there was no need to hide them, lest some people have ulterior motives.

"Is it still possible now?" Ya Ya was genuinely tempted this time. Seeing is believing, and perhaps after having so many ideas, she could give it a try.

Chapter 119

"Yes, because the number of Foundation Establishment disciples isn't as large as that of Qi Refining disciples, the draw will only take place during the official competition. After the draw, everyone will continue competing." Qian Rou smiled. Compared to her senior sister Shan Rou, she was actually more opinionated; otherwise, she wouldn't have come to Qingluo Peak today.

"If I register now, will anyone have any objections?" Although it was a pity, Ya Ya really didn't want to go through this special process.

"It's alright. Foundation Establishment disciples have sect missions to complete. Some disciples might not be able to return before the competition, so there's no time limit for registration. As long as it's before the start of the competition, it's fine." This was the truth. "

Senior Sister Qian Rou, this matter—" Only then did Ya Ya realize something was amiss. Why would Senior Sister Qian Rou suddenly come to Qingluo Peak to persuade her to participate in the competition, and even consider everything for her?

"I won't lie to you. Wu Mei from Chixian Peak went to the sect leader, saying she wants to challenge you after the competition. While sparring among disciples is allowed, private duels based on personal feelings are forbidden. Wu Mei's demeanor clearly indicates she's determined to fight you to the death. And since she went to the sect leader, if he agrees, she intends to defeat you in front of everyone. She's in the late Foundation Establishment stage, while you're in the early stage; she's confident in her abilities. The sect leader entrusted the matter to Senior Brother Lei Ming. The sect leader said that if he really wanted to manage everything in the Taixu Sect, he would simply do nothing and only handle these matters." "We can't manage it all. This centennial competition was entirely arranged by Senior Brother Lei Ming. So, Senior Brother Lei Ming came up with this idea: have you participate in the competition too. If she wants to compete with you, she'll always find an opportunity. Instead of waiting for her, it's better to go after her. In the centennial competition, it's best to stop when it's just a friendly spar. It's fine if you don't intend to hurt anyone, but if you take someone's life, it's a life for a life. She won't dare to do anything reckless. This is the sect rule, and no one can break it." Senior Brother Lei Ming and she both thought this way. Now, it's unlikely that Yi Yi can defeat Wu Mei, but she should lose honorably and leave her no way to escape.

"Hehe, Sect Leader—" Before thinking of herself, Ya Ya thought of the Sect Leader's expression at that time. The Sect Leader, with his immortal demeanor and flowing beard, said very seriously to Wu Mei that he wouldn't interfere in this matter and shouldn't bother him with these things all the time. Could he possibly manage everything?!

"Yi Yi!" Qian Rou stomped her foot. They were talking to her about serious matters.

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh, hehe, it's just too funny." She couldn't help but laugh; even the sect leader was adorable.

"Yi Yi!" Qian Rou's eyebrows twitched; she had a headache. What kind of taste did Qing Luo Zhenjun have?!

"Alright, alright, I'll go register for the competition." Ya Ya quickly waved her hand, suppressing her laughter and becoming serious.

"Senior Brother Lei Ming will arrange a match between you and Wu Mei at the appropriate time." Qian Rou hypnotized herself, refusing to look at the smile in Yi Yi's eyes.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Qian Rou. Also, please thank Senior Brother Lei Ming for me." Since Senior Brother Lei Ming had asked Senior Sister Qian Rou to come instead of her, he must have his reasons. Whatever it was, this arrangement was advantageous to her, and she accepted the favor.

"Alright, you prepare yourself. I'm leaving." Qian Rou blushed slightly and quickly took the opportunity to leave; the matter was already settled.

"She's gone?" This question clearly didn't need an answer.

"Yes, I'm preparing to participate in the Centennial Grand Competition." She hadn't expected Wu Mei to have such thoughts. She didn't like Wu Mei. Who would like a woman who was determined to be a mistress, especially one who was a mistress in her own family? But she hadn't thought about how to deal with her. Anyone can say anything. As long as she didn't actually do anything, Ya Ya was more inclined to disdain doing anything. The best way to prevent a mistress from taking over wasn't to deal with her, but to protect her own man and cut off the possibility of a mistress at the source. But now the situation had changed. Wu Mei had already made her move, so she wouldn't sit idly by. What a stupid woman. Did she really think that without her, Yuan Bai would be hers? Heh, if Yuan Bai really had anything for her, he would have done it long ago. He didn't have it in the past, he doesn't have it now, and he certainly won't have it in the future. If she wanted to come knocking, then so be it. Until the very end, it's still uncertain who will win and who will lose.

"It's worth a try." Yuan Bai nodded. They had initially decided not to participate because they were worried about Ya Ya's lack of experience in duels, but they hadn't expected her to gain so much insight after just a few days of observation. Since she had grasped the concepts, it was worth a try.

"But my main goal is to deal with Wu Mei. She told the sect leader she wanted to challenge me after the competition, so I'll settle things with her in the duel! It's all your fault, you're the one who caused this! She likes you, but she's looking for you, yet she chooses to come after me!" Ya Ya grabbed Yuan Bai's face and pulled hard, still not satisfied, and bit him again.

"Or should I go and take care of her?" He held her, making sure she wasn't too uncomfortable, and let her bite him as much as she wanted.

"If True Lord Chi Xian finds out, things will get even worse." Ya Ya! Teeth, what a terrible idea.

"It's alright, making someone disappear silently isn't difficult. If Chi Xian wants to bite, he'll at least have a reason to bite. If he can't find anything, how can he bite?" Ya Ya loosened her teeth, and this time Yuan Bai bit her, rubbing against her neck.

"You're so naughty! You must have been a pro before, practice makes perfect." But she liked being naughty!

"Hmm, I've done a lot of robbing and pillaging, I'm experienced now. Next time, let's do it together. Ten treasure hunts are not as good as one robbery." Yuan Bai raised an eyebrow. This kind of thing was commonplace in the cultivation world. It wasn't surprising if you had done it, it was strange if you hadn't.

"Robbing on the way is indeed a good way to get rich. Tell me, besides robbing money, have you ever robbed anyone of their virtue?" Sitting on Yuan Bai, she grabbed his collar.

"I'll rob you of your virtue!" Holding her finger in his mouth, Yuan Bai prepared to continue his seduction business.

"Senior Brother Lei Ming and Senior Sister Qian Rou did this to curry favor, right?" She pinched him. Couldn't this man finish his business first?

“The Taixu Sect has five Nascent Soul cultivators. If the sect leader wants to control the Taixu Sect well, he naturally needs a few powerful allies. Chi Xian, Hui Ying, would you choose? The Taixu Sect will naturally support the sect leader. If you bring me along, it will be three to two, and he will have the upper hand. Of course, he will be happy to do me this favor.”

“Then you are also willing to support the sect leader?” If she really had to choose, she would also choose the sect leader.

"Why not? As long as we stay in the Taixu Sect, the benefits of being on the same side as the Sect Leader far outweigh the disadvantages. Why wouldn't I want that?"

"So, even if you fight against True Monarch Chixian, you'll have something to rely on."

"That's not it. I dare to fight him because I have the ability. Even if I can't win, I can at least achieve a draw. If he's not afraid, let him come. Because of the Sect Leader, he'll take better care of you for my sake. I'm going to the secret realm in a year. With the protection of the Sect Leader Peak and Taixu Peak, I'll feel more at ease." He touched foreheads with hers. If he were alone, he would have long since given up on all this and either gone out to travel again or simply gone into seclusion to cultivate. But with her, he had to think more carefully.

"Thank you, Yuanbai. Also, did I ever say you were too wicked?"

"Yes, you just said that." Yuanbai laughed.

"But I love your wickedness!"

Chapter 120

Now that they had decided to compete, Ya Ya and Yuanbai began their pre-competition training, with their main goal being the battle against Wu Mei.

Judging from Qianrou's tone when she arrived, Ya Ya knew that everyone was pessimistic about her chances. After all, her strength and Wu Mei's strength were clearly different—one was in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and the other was in the late stage. Winning against an opponent of a higher level wasn't unheard of, but it was extremely rare, so rare that no one believed they could witness it firsthand.

Lei Ming and Qianrou had Ya Ya participate in the Foundation Establishment disciple competition simply to prevent Wu Mei from having a chance to attack from behind, and to openly reveal Wu Mei's intentions, hoping she would back down and stop focusing her attention on Qingluo Zhenjun and Li Yiyi.

Although they knew that Wu Mei was unlikely to back down easily, it was still a clear lesson. For Wu Mei, sometimes being brought to the surface made her less likely to act maliciously behind their backs. If she wouldn't dare to do it secretly, then they wouldn't have to worry about her openly. After all, who was behind Li Yiyi?

Ya Ya didn't care what others thought, nor did she have time for it. Knowing it was just a futile effort, she wanted to test her abilities and defeat an opponent of a higher level. If she were to face a Golden Core cultivator as an early Foundation Establishment cultivator, she wouldn't hesitate; defeat would be the only outcome. But if it was within the same Foundation Establishment realm, one early and one late, she wanted to try, to go all out, and perhaps she had a chance.

Having made up her mind, more cultivation was impossible in just a few days, so Yuan Bai and Ya Ya focused their energy on finding a way to fight. Wu Mei had a single fire-type spiritual root, while Ya Ya currently lacked fire within her body. Even if she did, she might not be able to contend with Wu Mei. Shifting her focus, Ya Ya concentrated on her three spiritual roots.

Ya Ya's three spiritual roots were the same as Yuan Bai's: metal, wood, and earth. The five elements of spiritual roots interact with each other, even for single-elemental roots. First, Ya Ya abandoned wood-based magic, as it was utterly vulnerable to fire. It was better to avoid it altogether to save energy. The choice between metal and earth left Ya Ya hesitant. Metal was primarily offensive, while earth was primarily defensive. If there were no challenges beyond her level, using both metal and earth would be the most prudent approach. But that wasn't possible now. Her cultivation was already inferior to Wu Mei's, a fatal flaw. Dividing her limited energy in two would mean she was utterly helpless against Wu Mei. Therefore, she had to choose one and gamble.

Metal or earth?

"Choose metal. I've prepared a Five Elements Jade Robe for defense." The Five Elements Jade Robe was actually a common type of clothing in the cultivation world, relying on external spirit stones and array symbols to defend against enemy attacks. However, the one Li Yuanbai presented was definitely not the most ordinary kind; it was enhanced with his improved array techniques, making it more than enough to defend against a Foundation Establishment disciple.

"No, if you can prepare, surely True Monarch Chi Xian can too." Ya Ya shook her head. It was absolutely possible. The competition never stipulated that only empty-handed confrontations were allowed. What skills do you have? Talk about fairness? No world is fair. The mortal world, the cultivation world, Ya Ya believed, even the immortal world and the god world are the same. Fairness is just an ideal word in one's mind.

"Using earth is too weak in attack. Without attack, you can't defeat the enemy." This is the biggest problem with earth, which is why Yuan Bai chose metal.

"Wu Mei is fire-type." Ya Ya suddenly thought of this. Fire, earth, earth can block fire, what about earth entering fire?

"Yes, and because she specializes in fire, her fire-type spells are not weak."

"Then I'll choose earth." Ya Ya smiled. She was looking forward to seeing what earth would become after entering fire.

Chapter 121

The ten-day Qi Refining stage disciple competition ended in the blink of an eye. The rewards for the disciples who were ranked would be awarded together with the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core disciples at the end. Therefore, on the eleventh day, the Foundation Establishment disciple competition continued.

The disciples of the Taixu Sect were filled with anticipation and excitement for the Centennial Competition. Many were experiencing it for the first time, while some who had participated before had been defeated early due to insufficient cultivation. Others, who had made some progress last time, hoped for a chance to shine this time.

In short, the Centennial Competition was exciting, and now, Ya Ya had joined in the excitement. From an observer, she had become a participant. How could she not be excited? Without excitement, where would her passion and motivation come from?

"Uncle-Master Li, good luck!" Lin Min's eyes had never dimmed since she learned Ya Ya was also participating. Once the Foundation Establishment disciple competition officially began, she busied herself around Ya Ya, helping her with everything. Ya Ya believed that if it weren't for the fact that Foundation Establishment disciples didn't need food and water, Lin Min would definitely have provided them.

"Little Lin Min, how many bets did you place on your martial aunt?" However, it would be better if this concern weren't there. Sigh, she'd had a stroke of luck; she never imagined that the seemingly innocent Little Lin Min was actually so mischievous. See? She only just found out about the competition, and immediately rushed off with her spirit stones to place bets, betting on her to win. So confident!

"Martial Aunt!" Lin Min exclaimed, mouth agape. Martial Aunt was amazing!

"Since I'm the one contributing, Little Lin Min, shouldn't everyone get a share? I won't take too much; let's split it fifty-fifty. Come on, I'm going on stage now." Waving, Ya Ya jumped onto the stage. Little Lin Min was so cute.

Regaining her composure, the competition was Ya Ya's most important task right now.

Her first opponent was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator with three spiritual roots. In the initial stage of the competition, the Taixu Sect tried its best to be fair. The Centennial Grand Competition gave the disciples of the sect a chance to shine, but it was also a trial opportunity for many more disciples. Therefore, the Taixu Sect tried its best to give the disciples more opportunities to spar at the beginning. The strength of a sect requires not only the leadership of top figures, but also the solid foundation of a large number of disciples. There is no question of which is more important, as they are equally important for the inheritance and standing of a sect.

She had already donned the Five Elements Jade Robe. This wasn't a secret weapon specifically designed to deal with Wu Mei; such robes were practically ubiquitous in the cultivation world, so there was no need to hide them. She only had one against Wu Mei: the application of earth. Although she wanted to test her theories, she had to restrain herself to achieve a surprise attack—a crucial tactic for victory.

Not only could she not use it, but to mislead True Monarch Chi Xian and Wu Mei, she deliberately used more techniques utilizing all three elemental roots in matches where she didn't encounter Wu Mei, making them believe that these were her only moves.

Her opponent possessed fire, earth, and water elemental roots, and immediately launched fire attacks. As expected, at the Foundation Establishment stage, compared to Qi Refining stage disciples, their attacks were far more proactive.

Ya Ya remained calm. Although she hadn't sparred with anyone before and lacked real combat experience, she had faced Yuan Bai countless times. Even when they practiced together, Ya Ya never slacked off in using her skills and thinking. Against an equal opponent, all she lacked was practical experience.

Using earth for defense and metal for offense, she quickly became entangled in combat. Initially, Ya Ya was indeed a bit flustered, especially in responding to the moves. However, she gradually loosened up, her techniques becoming more and more skillful. She unconsciously used what she had learned from sparring with Yuan Bai. As for their energy, they faced off, but Ya Ya wasn't worried. So, in this close contest, let's see who's the bravest. The best defense is offense.

She put away her earth defense, her metal advantage now in hand. Even if you have fire, I'll make sure you use it for defense, not offense! You attack, I defend; now it's my turn to attack, you defend.

Ya Ya transformed gold into a spear, the most domineering weapon in the world. She lunged forward, meeting her opponent head-on. Her initial defense was primarily to probe her opponent's style and strength. Now, she wasn't defending at all. Her Five Elements Jade Robe allowed her to move freely below the Foundation Establishment stage. What was there to defend against? She neither dodged nor evaded. Ya Ya gripped her golden spear, thrusting forward with every move, attacking and attacking again!

Chapter 122

"Uncle Li's fighting style—" On the stage, Ya Ya was fighting with great enthusiasm, but the onlookers below were dumbfounded. They had seen this fighting style before, and some of them had even fought like this before, but never in this kind of situation. This was a desperate, reckless fighting style. Unless it was a matter of life and death, who would fight like this? No defense whatsoever, just relentless attacks. In a life-or-death situation, this was the last resort. They were risking their lives. Since they knew that if they didn't risk it, their lives would be in danger anyway, they might as well go all out and fight their way out.

But right now, it's just a competition, not a matter of life and death. Could it be that the other martial uncle is pushing too hard? Whether you're there to understand the intricacies or just to watch the spectacle, everyone's eyes widened. No, the other martial uncle didn't seem to be going all out either. What's going on?

Lin Min was also completely bewildered. Even if her martial uncle wanted to split the spoils 50/50, he wouldn't be fighting so fiercely. If she had known this would happen, she would have given him an even bigger share.

"True Lord Qingluo is indeed very dedicated." As a Nascent Soul cultivator, True Lord Qingluo couldn't possibly be present for today's competition. Even if he cared deeply for Li Yiyi, he couldn't come. If he did, who would dare to fight Li Yiyi without restraint? In that case, Li Yiyi would be seen as the one who had the upper hand and bullied others. Therefore, True Lord Qingluo had no choice but to stay away. In the distance, Lei Ming and Qian Rou were watching the competition. Both of them were core disciples of the sect and did not need to participate in the general competition for Foundation Establishment disciples. They only needed to wait for the final competition with the disciples who had determined their rankings. Naturally, they wanted to watch Li Yiyi's first official competition. Although they did not have high hopes for Li Yiyi's fight against Wu Mei, they still wanted to see what kind of person Qingluo Zhenjun had trained.

"Yes, that Five Elements Jade Robe was made by True Monarch Qingluo. Let alone Foundation Establishment cultivators, it might even be able to withstand some damage from Golden Core cultivators. Why would they need to defend themselves?" Qianrou's words were tinged with envy and even jealousy. She was indeed a disciple of True Monarch Taixu, but she was certain that she didn't possess as many treasures as Li Yiyi. Li Yiyi had just appeared with a top-grade Five Elements Jade Robe, a top-grade treasure. Most Golden Core cultivators probably only had one top-grade treasure, but Li Yiyi had already produced a top-grade treasure. If she could advance any further, it would become a spiritual artifact. Qianrou even felt that if Li Yiyi's cultivation advanced any further, True Monarch Qingluo would have the ability to refine the Five Elements Jade Robe into a spiritual artifact. Everyone on the Liuli Continent knew that True Monarch Qingluo was also skilled in artifact refining. Although he only ever refined artifacts for his own use, the quality of the items True Monarch Qingluo possessed increased with his own cultivation. Some people said it was fate, but where do you get so many fates? Go and try it yourself. In the end, there was only one conclusion: True Monarch Qingluo was a master artifact refiner.

Cultivation artifacts, like humans, beasts, and medicines, are graded and categorized in a manner largely consistent with medicinal herbs: treasure artifacts, spiritual artifacts, immortal artifacts, and divine artifacts. Each grade is further divided into upper, middle, and lower ranks. Immortal artifacts and divine artifacts are rarely seen anymore. Spiritual artifacts are extremely rare, mostly held by Nascent Soul cultivators, as only they possess the ability to protect them. As for what Nascent Soul cultivators possess—immortal artifacts? No one would even consider it; they are the pinnacle of existence in this world. If you want to die, don't even think about it. Ordinary people use treasure artifacts, or even things that don't even qualify as treasure artifacts. In the increasingly resource-scarce cultivation world, treasure artifacts are already coveted items.

Wearing such a high-grade defensive treasure artifact, Li Yiyi certainly has the right to not worry about defense and only focus on offense.

Meanwhile, her opponent has to both defend and attack, giving Li Yiyi the upper hand.

Li Yiyi's opponent, Shen Chong, is also inwardly groaning. How did he end up with such an opponent! You retreat, she attacks; you attack, she still attacks you!

If he hadn't known it was still a competition, he would have grabbed the person and yelled, "Get this straight!

This is a competition, not a fight to the death!" He wasn't unfamiliar with this fighting style, but this was absolutely not the occasion for it. And yet, someone had shown up. What was he supposed to do? Should he also become a daredevil? Seeing that the opponent's fighting style was powerful but not lethal, he couldn't do that. If they really went all out, every move would be deadly; how could they possibly hold back? He truly didn't know how she managed to fight so fiercely without injuring anyone.

The reality was that normally, how could Ya Ya and Li Yuanbai truly fight to the death? Even the most realistic sparring couldn't replace real battlefield combat. Ya Ya lacked real combat experience, which ultimately led to her current style: fighting to the death, not risking her life.

As a result, this moment of distraction caused him to inwardly groan. Ya Ya pressed forward relentlessly, never backing down, and Shen Chong quickly found himself at a disadvantage. If it were anyone else, preoccupied with defense, they wouldn't have been defeated so easily. But he was facing Ya Ya's relentless fighting style, her attacks growing increasingly fierce. If he were distracted by other thoughts, what would the outcome be?

Ya Ya, with her golden spear, single-handedly defeated her opponent!

Thus, Ya Ya displayed her skills for the first time—a victory!

Chapter 123:

Seeing Li Yiyi standing victorious on the stage, everyone below instinctively took a step back. This Uncle Li's fighting style was too ferocious!

The competition was over; one wondered how brutal a true life-or-death struggle would be. Swallowing hard, it seemed Qingluo Zhenjun was indeed Qingluo Zhenjun—his taste was extraordinary!

It's best to avoid such a powerful person in the future. Those with nothing to lose are fearless. Cultivation is difficult; stay away from terror and cherish life!

Ya Ya had truly become famous in one battle!

"Senior Brother Lei, do you think it's possible for her to become a core disciple?" There are ten core disciples in the Taixu Sect. Vacancies arise in several ways: passively (a spot becomes vacant after someone advances to the Golden Core stage), or due to accidental death. The Centennial Grand Competition is active, giving everyone a platform to compete for the core disciple position. If you truly have the ability to dethrone a core disciple, you become the new core disciple, enjoying the sect's strong support and priority access to all resources available to Foundation Establishment disciples. Moreover, core disciples are guaranteed to become disciples of various Nascent Soul True Monarchs within the Taixu Sect. You might ask what the benefits of becoming a True Monarch's disciple are?

Just look at Li Yiyi, who has just become famous. Leaving aside equipment, the Taixu Sect will do its best to prepare these for its core disciples. Even the cultivation techniques—don't just focus on Li Yiyi's fierce fighting style, but also pay attention to her movement and techniques. If you look closely, you can see the subtlety of her movements and techniques. She uses the least amount of effort to execute the most ingenious moves, each strike clean and decisive, without any unnecessary hesitation. This is something a Foundation Establishment disciple cannot achieve. Who else but True Monarch Qingluo standing behind Li Yiyi could do all this?

Although Li Yiyi is now known as True Monarch Qingluo's dual cultivation partner, the influence of True Monarch Qingluo on Li Yiyi's training cannot be denied. A great teacher produces a great student; the saying is indeed true.

"Challenging opponents of a higher level?" Li Yiyi's fighting style is indeed powerful, but Lei Ming still believes that such power only exists against opponents of the same level. If she encounters someone with a higher cultivation level, she won't be able to be powerful even if she wants to.

"It seems Senior Brother Lei isn't optimistic. How about we make a bet?" On the contrary, Qianrou was quite optimistic about Li Yiyi. It was only the first match, and True Monarch Qingluo had already put so much effort into equipping Li Yiyi. Who could say what would happen later?

"Use my Purple Thunder Umbrella?" Lei Ming smiled at Qianrou; she had been eyeing this item for a long time.

"Senior Brother, don't you think it's interesting? You're not optimistic, but I am. There has to be a prize, right? The Purple Thunder Umbrella is good, but for Senior Brother, it's practically useless. If you win, it's a bonus; if you lose, I'll just be solving a problem for you." Qianrou wasn't embarrassed at all. For Senior Brother Lei, with his thunder spirit root, the Purple Thunder Umbrella was optional, but for her, it was a treasure useful for both offense and defense.

"I wonder what you'll offer as a prize, Junior Sister? I don't want your treasures, just your leaf blanket." He remembered that this was a gift from True Monarch Taixu when Senior Sister Qianrou was promoted to a core disciple—a wonderful travel accessory, and most importantly, beautiful. Compared to his own lightning nail, Lei Ming felt this suited him much better.

"It's a deal!" Qianrou almost gave Lei Ming a high five to seal the deal. The leaf blanket was her treasure; normally, she would never have been willing to gamble it away. But this time, for some reason, she was filled with unwavering confidence in Li Yiyi's victory. So, when she heard Senior Brother Lei agree to offer the Purple Lightning Umbrella, but only if he wanted her leaf blanket, she agreed without hesitation. Her gaze was fixed on Li Yiyi on the distant stage, filled with boundless confidence. Regardless of the reason, True Monarch Qingluo had reached the Nascent Soul stage on his own; how could his chosen Daoist partner be ordinary? She believed she would witness Li Yiyi's rise to power!

At Qingluo Peak, seeing the happy smile on Ya Ya's face, Yuan Bai temporarily shifted his gaze from the Transparent Observation Realm. He picked up his teacup, moistening his throat, which was dry from nervousness. After watching Ya Ya's first match, he felt somewhat relieved. As long as Ya Ya didn't get stage fright, he believed she could go further in this century-long competition.

Chapter 124:

No matter how large the Taixu Sect was, the number of Foundation Establishment disciples couldn't be as large as the number of Qi Refining disciples. Furthermore, the later matches for Foundation Establishment disciples generally took a considerable amount of time, and there was also the final thirty-person challenge against the core disciples. Therefore, the earlier matches were arranged quite tightly. After the first round of matches concluded in the morning, the second round began immediately in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, Ya Ya stood on the competition stage once again.

This time, her opponent was still a fellow disciple with the same cultivation level as her, but her spiritual roots were no longer the same as hers; they were better than hers—two spiritual roots, one of metal and one of fire. Ya Ya's first reaction upon learning this was to grit her teeth in envy. What difference was there between having two spiritual roots and having only one?!

Gold and fire complement each other perfectly, a match made in heaven!

But no matter how itchy she was, the competition had to continue, and she had to figure out how to win. Knowing Wu Mei's plan, her goal—forget about rankings or becoming a core disciple—was singular: to beat Wu Mei up fair and square, no matter how!

Okay, how to beat Wu Mei was a matter for later; right now, she had to get past this hurdle first, otherwise she wouldn't have a chance to do so.

Fire, that damned fire spirit root! When Yuan Bai returned from the secret realm, the first thing she would do was to cultivate fire within her body, so that every time she encountered someone with a fire spirit root, they wouldn't just start by spinning around her with a fireball. Hmph, once she cultivated fire within her body, they could compete with fireballs—who was afraid of whom!

After venting her frustration, Ya Ya had to return to reality and quickly devise a solution.

With dual spiritual roots, the fire-based techniques the opponent used were naturally stronger than those used with three spiritual roots. The fire within his body was also more refined. Even before getting close, Ya Ya could already feel the threat of the fire spirit emanating from him. The heat distorted her vision. It seemed that the fire on his body was yang fire, hence the heat. If it were yin fire, like ghostly fire, it would be chilling to the bone. Moreover, yin fire is not afraid of water, just like oil fire, water has no effect on it. As for sunlight, it is full of power. Even before exchanging blows, you can feel the heat of the fire and its domineering aura that wants to destroy you. These two different kinds of fire, although they have naturally different characteristics, have one thing in common: they both make you tremble from the bottom of your heart.

She is of the metal, earth, and wood elements. When encountering fire, wood is out of the question. No matter how much or how strong the wood is, it cannot withstand a single spark unless the wood undergoes a qualitative change, which is very difficult. Therefore, in the morning against Shen Chong, and now against this fellow disciple named Wang Ran with dual spiritual roots, Ya Ya never considers using wood.

In the morning, she used the metal element, but now, Ya Ya had to carefully consider whether and how to use it, because her opponent's dual spiritual roots were precisely metal and fire. If she used metal, she worried she wouldn't be as effective. Don't forget, her opponent had dual spiritual roots, while she had three. Comparatively

, she lacked the essence of her opponent's metal. It was like her metal could be transformed into a sharp weapon, a fine spear, but her opponent's was a peerless spear. If she were to clash head-on, one spear would block the other, and eventually, one would break. Clearly, it would be her spear that broke.

Immediately, Wang Ran surrounded himself with fireballs and launched an attack on Ya Ya. Normally, Wang Ran wasn't like this; he was always cautious and would always assess his opponent before making a move. But now, facing this fierce fellow disciple, from the moment he learned that his opponent was her, Wang Ran decisively abandoned his usual methods and went straight for her aggressive style from the morning. Did he have time to probe her strength? No! The opponent has already knocked you off the stage, what are you still probing for? Stop probing and take the initiative to attack!

Just when everyone thought the opponent was attacking and Ya Ya would rush forward to fight like before, another unexpected event occurred! 06-28 Chapter 125

Li Yiyi didn't go into battle with her golden spear, but instead pushed out an earthen wall to defend. Everyone swallowed hard. The fierce Li Yiyi can defend too!

The people watching from below the stage were fine. Unexpected as it was, they weren't in the thick of it, so it was just an eye-opening experience. However, Wang Ran, who was in the thick of it, almost fell off the stage. His attack almost went astray, and he was already extremely frustrated. So, his fellow disciple can defend too!

What was the point of his ferocious and reckless fighting style this morning!

Unfortunately, it was too late for Wang Ran to change his approach. The arrow was on the bowstring and had to be released. Wang Ran wasn't a novice. He quickly adjusted his mindset and decided to treat it as trying out a new fighting style.

Thinking this way, her composure, which had been thrown off balance by Li Yiyi, returned to normal.

Ya Ya was unaware of Wang Ran's psychological shift. Once on the dueling platform and the competition began, all her attention was focused on how to compete and how to win. Concentration was something Yuan Bai had taught her, and something she had always practiced. How could one do something well if one was distracted?

Actually, upon closer inspection, although Wang Ran adopted an aggressive approach, which was different from his usual style, it was still evident that he was seeking victory through stability. Wang Ran focused all his energy on the fire element, rather than dividing it in two and then splitting it into the metal element. This method ensured maximum support for his current fire-based cultivation technique. Which Foundation Establishment disciple hadn't experienced some perilous situations? How to deal with them was something none of them were novices.

On Ya Ya's side, Tu Yu was also giving it her all. Although her opponent was of the same cultivation level, Wu Mei's fire attack, made from dual spiritual roots, was more refined. However, she didn't give up her attack because of this. Don't forget, Wu Mei had a fire spiritual root body. Therefore, she wanted to test how her theory could be put into practice.

While moving around the arena, she carefully let her earth technique seep into her opponent's fire attack little by little, both to avoid being noticed by others and to carefully observe the changes after the earth entered the fire.

In Ya Ya's original world, clay could be turned into porcelain when put into fire. Although porcelain was fragile, it was also sharp. Ya Ya didn't need the porcelain to last, as long as it was sharp enough to defeat the enemy unexpectedly. In terms of spiritual roots, she could no longer compare with Wu Mei, and in terms of cultivation, they were incomparable. To defeat her was actually a trivial matter. Therefore, this was the most unexpected weapon she could think of to deal with Wu Mei. Success or failure depended on this one move.

Wang Ran's Yang Fire was incredibly hot, hot enough to turn clay into porcelain. Feeling her first layer of earth defense had solidified, Ya Ya was overjoyed. "Thank goodness, it's effective!" she thought

. "As long as it's effective!" Ya Ya withdrew her earth defense and transformed back into the ferocious Li Yi Yi. "Attack! Victory!

Wu Mei, anticipate the unexpected!"

Facing Li Yi Yi, who had finally reverted to her ferocious fighting style, Wang Ran felt a sense of relief. "That's right," he thought, "this is the Li Yi Yi I know. This is the right fighting style. While I hadn't panicked during the previous defense, I still wasn't used to Li Yi Yi with her tentacles retracted. When facing an enemy, knowing yourself and your enemy is paramount.

" Knowing his opponent was Li Yi Yi, Wang Ran had carefully studied Li Yi Yi's only previous match. Seeing his opponent finally switch from defense to offense, he didn't change his offensive strategy. He simply increased the output of his internal energy to the fire element. If his opponent used metal, he would meet him with fire, burning everything, including metal!

However, Ya Ya was well aware of her disadvantage against fire. So, when she first encountered the fire attack, she wrapped her golden spear in an earth element. Without pausing, she attacked without hesitation. Since it was an offensive move, she naturally didn't defend herself. She charged through the fire attack, and her own defense was not a concern. The Five Elements Jade Armor that Yuan Bai had prepared for her was never weak. Below the Golden Core stage, she could charge forward

without restraint. She charged into Wang Ran's first layer of fire, then out, then into the second layer, and finally into the third layer. The earth on her golden spear was melted by the fire, but before it could be porcelainized, she quickly swept it off and wrapped it with new earth. She had done these variations in her practice with Yuan Bai before, so she could do them again without any problem. As for panic, the first match that morning had already made her panic enough, but she adapted. This match was no different from her usual matches against Yuan Bai, except that the opponent was different.

Chapter 126

Wang Ran was greatly surprised. Facing opponents of the same cultivation level, Wang Ran's Three Fires had never been breached. These three layers of fire were his cultivation technique. The first layer of fire was the vanguard, the second layer was the hottest, and the middle layer was the most intense. It could be said that no one of equal cultivation level could break through it. This had always been Wang Ran's confidence, and past events had proven this confidence. By the third layer, although it was no longer as intense as the second layer, the second layer had already exhausted too much of the opponent's energy. By the third layer, Wang Ran had firmly grasped the initiative, and the outcome was in his hands.

Because of such an impressive past record, even the usually cautious Wang Ran couldn't help but feel a bit overconfident. That's why he was so surprised when his opponent broke through his three-fire defense. Although he knew about Li Yiyi's fierce fighting style in the morning, he still believed that no matter how fierce she was, Li Yiyi couldn't break through his three-fire defense. However, he didn't expect that when they actually faced each other, he realized that Li Yiyi's fierce fighting style was tactically fierce, no less so than her fighting style. Yes, without great skills, can you be fierce just because you want to?

Once a change occurs in one's mind, an uncontrollable fluctuation will appear in one's hand techniques. Even a slight fluctuation is enough to affect the two in the contest. It was with this slight fluctuation that Ya Ya allowed her golden spear to break through Wang Ran's three-fire technique, which served as both defense and offense, directly striking at Wang Ran's chest. After breaking through the three fires, Ya Ya withdrew the earth-elemental techniques that enveloped her golden spear. Her current focus was on using metal techniques to fight her opponent. Once she was close enough, she would temporarily disregard the earth-elemental techniques; only in this way could she contend with her opponent who possessed dual spiritual roots.

Thrusting, stabbing, pulling, sweeping—Ya Ya launched a fierce attack. The familiar, ferocious Li Yi Yi was back!

Because of that earlier mental fluctuation, Wang Ran lost the initiative, and then, faced with Ya Ya's relentless fighting style, Wang Ran was defeated!

The golden spear stood firm, a gentle breeze blowing, and Li Yi Yi was most triumphant!

One battle made her famous, another solidified her reputation; from then on, the Tai Xu produced the ferocious Li Yi Yi!

"Senior Brother Lei, remember to clean your Purple Thunder Umbrella. I'm a girl, and I like things very clean." After Li Yiyi's match ended, Qianrou gracefully left, reminding her senior brother to prepare the Purple Thunder Umbrella before taking her step.

"Junior Sister, remember to clean the Leaf Blanket too. I don't like other people's smells!" Lei Ming smiled insincerely. Even though Li Yiyi was fierce and had won two matches, he still didn't have high hopes. The two people she had defeated were only at the same cultivation level as her, which didn't prove anything. Starting tomorrow, Li Yiyi would most likely encounter opponents with higher cultivation levels than her—mid-Foundation Establishment, late-Foundation Establishment, all were possible. He would wait and see then.

Whether she could even face Wu Mei was still uncertain.

"Yes, sitting on the refreshing Leaf Blanket, holding the Purple Thunder Umbrella, is truly a leisurely experience. Senior Brother is right." Qianrou turned and smiled, a beauty as pleasing to the eye as her name suggested, provided one ignored the mischievousness in her eyes.

Lei Ming remained silent, turning his gaze to Li Yiyi, who was still standing on the platform in the distance. "Junior Sister, so confident?

Qingluo Zhenjun, Li Yiyi... does Junior Sister trust Qingluo Zhenjun's judgment?" Even with potential, challenging someone of a higher level isn't something that can be accomplished simply by having potential. Lei Ming still didn't believe someone with only three spiritual roots could do it. Qingluo Zhenjun, with only three spiritual roots, advanced to the Nascent Soul stage without a teacher, yet such cases are extremely rare, perhaps one in ten thousand. Lei Ming simply couldn't believe that another legend like Li Yiyi could emerge from the side of Qingluo Zhenjun's legend. He couldn't even convince himself of such a probability.

Lei Ming withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.

After Ya Ya finished her competition, today's competitions were all over. The competitions would continue tomorrow, but she didn't know who she would compete against. The results would be decided by drawing lots tomorrow morning after all the competitions were finished. However, she didn't have time to care about that now. She was in a great mood. After finishing her competition, she went to the Crane-Tranquil Grounds, humming a little tune as she happily returned to Qingluo Peak.

She was happy not only for her initial small victory, but also for the successful validation of her theory of "earth entering fire," her most important assassin against Wu Mei! Now, the facts told her that her assassin could be used, how could she not be happy?

Chapter 127

"Wow, it smells so good!" As soon as she returned and entered the house, Ya Ya smelled the aroma filling the room. She knew without a doubt that Yuan Bai had prepared a celebratory feast for her!

"Wash your hands and come eat." Yuan Bai was carrying out bowls of food when he saw her, and a smile appeared on his face. This felt so good; this was what a home should be like, with him, with her, and with steaming, fragrant food.

"Mmm." Looking at his smile, Ya Ya unconsciously smiled and nodded. It felt so good to have a home.

"Tomorrow won't be so easy." After dinner, Yuan Bai brewed a pot of spiritual tea, and the two of them enjoyed the most relaxing moment of the day on the recliners under the bamboo forest.

Yuan Bai had participated in the sect's centennial competition, including the Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core stages, so he naturally knew about some of the events in each competition.

In the initial competitions, the sect will try to arrange for participants with the same cultivation level and spiritual root as you. However, this becomes impossible later on. The Grand Competition is divided into three major stages, but not minor levels. Regardless of whether you are in the pre-Foundation Establishment, middle, or late stages, or whether you have a single, double, three, four, or five spiritual root, you will be competing against Foundation Establishment disciples. Naturally, it is inevitable that the further you progress in the competition, the more likely you are to encounter disciples of different levels and spiritual roots. This situation is very disadvantageous for a budding Foundation Establishment cultivator. It can be said that without a special trick, the budding cultivator will only face defeat. However, in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, it is not as easy as eating or drinking. You can't just improve your cultivation level whenever you want. Even if you break through during the competition, Yuan Bai does not consider it a good thing. After breaking through, you need to stabilize your realm. At this point, you cannot continue competing even if you want to. If you make a slight mistake, the most likely outcome is that your realm will become unstable and you will suffer from qi deviation.

Furthermore, there is a secret elixir in the cultivation world that can greatly enhance one's cultivation level, but at the cost of severe damage. After the effects wear off, being temporarily unable to use one's vital energy is considered mild; some may even experience a regression in cultivation, and in more severe cases, death from exhaustion of vital energy is possible. This method is even more undesirable. Even when facing perilous situations, Yuan Bai never considered such a tragic approach. What use would it be even if one escaped danger? Wouldn't it be better to focus on finding a way out?

In short, there are no shortcuts to achieving a proper breakthrough using ordinary methods. Cultivation cannot be achieved through last-minute cramming; one

must hone one's skills. However, this doesn't mean learning new skills. At this stage, learning something new that one is not yet proficient in is ineffective in combat. Instead, one should refine existing skills, correcting minor flaws to make them more exquisite and practical.

"So tired." Ya Ya sighed, snuggling against Yuan Bai's chest. Generally speaking, Ya Ya wasn't a person with great ambitions. For her, the greatest motivation for cultivating immortality was her love for Yuan Bai and the idea of being with him forever. This constant competition was something she had never experienced before, and even winning couldn't alleviate her exhaustion.

"If you don't want to, we won't participate, okay?" Yuan Bai held her, his heart aching. His Ya Ya shouldn't be so tired. If Ya Ya didn't want to, what was wrong with him protecting her for eternity?

"I want to participate! I want everyone to know that Li Yuan Bai is mine, and no one is allowed to even think about him!" Just to fight Wu Mei, she would grit her teeth and fight to the end. "Okay, then let's have Ya Ya fight with all her might. If you really

don't want to, don't worry, I'm here." He stroked her smooth, long hair. Why cultivate immortality? To pursue the path to eternal life, for the path in their hearts. He and Ya Ya, however, did it all come down to a long and lasting commitment. Perhaps this was all cultivation, this was all the path.

"I know." Whether it was the little woman behind him or the strong woman fighting alongside him, Ya Ya wanted to be the latter.

"Let's look at your shortcomings in today's competition." Since Ya Ya had decided to continue, then let her continue. Yuan Bai held the Insight Mirror. The Insight Mirror could observe all the actions of the person who left the mark, and by leaving another mark while observing, it could be replayed afterwards.

When Ya Ya first learned about the Insight Mirror's function, she could only marvel at how omnipotent the cultivation world truly was; nothing was impossible.

"Okay." This was Yuan Bai's most valuable experience; no one else but him and her could know these things.

"You can be even faster than the opponent's three-fire speed, reducing the impact of fire on your golden spear. This way, you can use earth-based techniques less often. Practice your movement techniques more. This 'Xianyun Step' aims for speed and lightness. Ya Ya, you need more understanding and mastery. When you're close, your golden spear can penetrate even further, posing a greater threat to your opponent. He lets you fully feel the heat of his sun, and you can let him feel the sharpness of your golden spear. Every element has its own strengths; no one is weaker than the other." Ya Ya's two matches in one day still had many areas for improvement. Yuan Bai knew Ya Ya couldn't possibly do everything he said, so he selected the two most effective improvements: one to conserve energy, and one to increase power.

"Then I'll try again." Actions speak louder than words.

Immediately, Yuan Bai imitated Wang Ran's style and sparred with Ya Ya again. For him, a Nascent Soul cultivator, imitating a Foundation Establishment disciple was no problem.

Chapter 128

It wasn't until late at night that Ya Ya and Yuan Bai stopped. Ya Ya had already mastered these two areas; further improvement wouldn't be something that could be achieved in a short time.

"What are you doing?!" Just as they stopped, Yuan Bai swept Ya Ya up in his arms, causing her to exclaim in surprise.

"It's time for cultivation." Yuan Bai pecked her lips, his eyes sparkling.

"I still have a competition tomorrow." Even while being held by him, she still pinched his waist. In matters of lovemaking, men become more and more vigorous, while the woman's slender waist suffers.

"Silly girl, have you forgotten? Dual cultivation is the best method for us." He pecked her again, removed their clothes, and carried her into the hot spring.

"When did you get this?" Yesterday, when they came to the hot spring, this chair wasn't there; there was only a recliner, where only the head was exposed, the rest of the body surrounded by warm spring water. "

Today, Ya Ya, let's test the effect." He carried her to sit on it, switching arms in the princess carry, letting her straddle him.

In cultivation, some people complement each other by pressing their palms together, but for dual cultivation, the best is a harmonious union of yin and yang.

The woman-on-top position is the best for dual cultivation, allowing the man's penis to remain deeply inside the woman's vagina, and this maximum depth allows for a better fusion of their vital energy.

Ya Ya blushed, whether from the spring water or from being embarrassed by Yuan Bai's words—a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, always thinking about such things!

Yuan Bai didn't waste any more time; Ya Ya needed to continue her efforts tomorrow, so he had to hurry too.

He wrapped one arm around her smooth back, and with the other, he teased one of Ya Ya's nipples, while the other was sucked into his mouth. When he felt both nipples tremble, Yuan Bai temporarily released the nipple.

"Ya Ya, I want milk!" Her tone was like a child's pleading, or like a puppy eagerly eating its food, if you added a tail.

Ya Ya tilted her head back, biting her lip, partly from the physical pleasure, and partly from anger at him. He was becoming increasingly shameless

, spouting more and more lewd things. Every time this happened, Ya Ya felt like she wasn't from that era; he was, he was the one who had already walked through all sorts of pornographic films. She stretched out her claws and scratched his back hard, leaving heavy marks. Every time you wanted milk, you had to take care of it yourself. If you asked her, could she say no? Although she also enjoyed the feeling of him sucking on her nipples.

Pain and pleasure intertwined; this extreme pleasure was indescribable. Only those who had experienced it firsthand knew the taste of this addictive flavor.

So, Ya Ya's scratch completely excited Yuan Bai.

He temporarily removed his hand from Ya Ya's nipple and went straight for Ya Ya's flower bud. It was wet. Yuan Bai could clearly feel that it was a slightly greasy slippery texture, not the pure feel of spring water. He knew very well the difference in feel.

"Ya Ya, I'm here." Tonight, the most important thing for them wasn't pursuing physical and mental pleasure or the climax of lovemaking, but rather the advancement of their dual cultivation through the fusion of yin and yang. All that Yuan Bai had done before was to make Ya Ya's vagina moist so that his penis could enter more smoothly. Of course, there was also the point that if they could combine their yang and yin energies during their climax, the effect would be even better.

Ya Ya leaned against him without speaking, but after feeling his entry, she scratched his back again.

Perhaps due to the dual cultivation, despite having made love many times and endured countless penetrations of Yuan Bai's large penis, Ya Ya's vagina remained incredibly tight. Each time Yuan Bai entered, she could feel his penis being tightly gripped by Ya Ya, a sensation that made her want to scream with pleasure every time. However, this also meant that Ya Ya needed time to adjust to each of Yuan Bai's penetrations, to get used to the size of his penis entering her body.

"Ya Ya, move a little, okay?" Yuan Bai gently coaxed Ya Ya, pushing against his crotch. He imagined Ya Ya twisting her waist, her breasts swaying up and down, her lower body tightly gripping his penis with each thrust. Yuan Bai's lower body tightened, and his penis inside Ya Ya became even hotter.

Chapter 129

This shameless bastard! Ya Ya cursed inwardly. Well, she had actually become wanton with Yuan Bai in bed. Normally, she would never have said such a thing.

"Ya Ya—" she pleaded in a hoarse voice.

Shameless!

But while she cursed him in her heart, her body was already aroused, moving up and down rhythmically. Realizing her body was out of control, Ya Ya was furious and bit his shoulder hard again, showing no mercy.

The warm spring water, the jade recliner, the naked man and woman, the uncontrollable moans and gasps, the splashing water from the slapping of flesh against flesh, all fueled a rapidly surging lust—this was a scene of boundless, decadent spring.

Clinging tightly to Yuan Bai's shoulders, as she adapted to his large penis, Ya Ya wanted more. With each thrust, Ya Ya sat down deeply, taking it all in, repeatedly absorbing Yuan Bai's penis completely into her body. Ya Ya moaned; each time Yuan Bai's penis penetrated deeply, the trembling from the depths of her soul and throughout her body made her feel like she was floating on air. That moment of ultimate pleasure made her involuntarily contract her entire body, her limbs tensing, then straightening again. It was an indescribable feeling of ultimate pleasure.

"Yuan Bai!" After countless such deep and shallow thrusts, Ya Ya finally screamed, for she had reached the highest point!

"Ya Ya, wait for me!" Yuan Bai gripped Ya Ya's waist tightly with both hands, increasing the speed of his thrusts. This not only elicited Ya Ya's uncontrollable screams but also brought him to orgasm. After a series of rapid thrusts, they both climaxed simultaneously. However, Yuan Bai's large penis had already tightly sealed Ya Ya's entrance. Even though they had both climaxed, Yuan Bai's yin and yang essences remained inside Ya Ya's body.

Holding Ya Ya's body, the two embraced tightly.

"Ya Ya, we're starting." He slowly circulated his vital energy through his penis to promote the yin and yang essences blocking the tip of his penis. Of course, this process also required Ya Ya's help. She also had to circulate her vital energy into her lower body, and circulate it separately from Yuan Bai's penis to allow the yin and yang essences at their point of fusion to merge. If they didn't merge, it would be no different from someone else's palms touching during cultivation.

The two used their qi from both sides to gradually merge their yin and yang energies until they were completely intertwined. This was the first step in dual cultivation. Next was the fusion of their energies. In the early stages of dual cultivation, they did not reach this step. Most of the time, Yuan Bai circulated his own energies through the large cycle between Ya Ya and his body. Later, Ya Ya was able to do it a few times occasionally. Only recently have their energies begun to merge, which means that their dual cultivation has taken another step forward. As their energies merged and circulated through the large cycle, they discovered a greater effect. This fused energy had a better effect on improving their cultivation. However, neither Ya Ya nor Yuan Bai understood why. Obviously, neither of their cultivation levels had broken through; they were still at the early stage of Nascent Soul and the early stage of Foundation Establishment. But their energies had merged in such a tacit way. Regardless of whether they understood it or not, it was a good thing for them.

"Mmm," Ya Ya leaned close to him, feeling their primordial energy begin to merge after their yin and yang energies merged. Then, the merged yin and yang energies merged with their own primordial energy again, forming a unique dual cultivation primordial energy. Finally, this dual cultivation primordial energy first circulated through her body, then through the lower body, along Yuan Bai's penis into Yuan Bai's body, circulated through the lower body again, and returned to Ya Ya's body. This cycle repeated endlessly within their bodies, constantly circulating through their intertwined bodies. This fusion was the primary dual cultivation technique recorded in the Yin-Yang Chaos Manual.

The two remained silent, focusing on the flow of their dual cultivation energy within their bodies. This flow brought them an incredibly smooth feeling, soothing both their bodies and souls. The day's fatigue, both physical and spiritual, was relieved and restored. It was because of this that Yuan Bai had pulled Ya Ya into a dual cultivation session, leaving her refreshed and full of energy for the next day's departure!

Chapter 130

As expected, in the second day's competition, Ya Ya's opponent, Lu Qi, was a level higher than her—mid-Foundation Establishment, with dual fire and earth spiritual roots.

From the very beginning, Ya Ya could clearly feel the difference between her early Foundation Establishment stage and her opponent's mid-Foundation Establishment stage—a significant deficiency in her energy and the suppression of his energy. Although it was only slightly strenuous, it clearly demonstrated the difference between them. Relieved

, she felt it was only slightly strenuous, and she had the ability to fight back. Now, Ya Ya was looking forward to seeing how much pressure the late Foundation Establishment stage would put on her.

Her gaze returned to Lu Qi, who was waiting for her to act in the arena.

Lu Qi stepped forward, his eyes casually fixed on her, and Ya Ya clearly saw the unconcealed glint in them. Ya Ya was unwilling to admit defeat, but there was nothing she could do. Lu Qi's cultivation was higher than hers; he certainly had the right to strategically underestimate her. However, Ya Ya smiled faintly, hoping he wouldn't underestimate her tactically. She was only slightly struggling against him, but not without any ability to defend herself or retaliate.

If Yuan Bai were here, he would definitely be surprised by Ya Ya's current state. Despite being at the early Foundation Establishment stage, she was only slightly struggling against the pressure of a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator. This was completely contrary to the norms of cultivation. The pressure of cultivation levels was absolute; mid-stage versus early, late-stage versus mid, and even higher levels were unpredictable. But Ya Ya was only slightly struggling, a situation definitely worth investigating. Unfortunately, Yuan Bai wasn't here, and Ya Ya's knowledge of cultivation was limited. She simply thought her situation was normal, that everyone was like that, after all, they were all at the Foundation Establishment stage, just at different stages.

Lu Qi's fire was still Yang fire, even more intense than Shen Chong's initial fire yesterday. If Shen Chong's fire distorted the scenery before Ya Ya's eyes, then today Lu Qi's fire was making it almost impossible for her to see anything, as everything was already burning in her eyes.

Calmness was the first step in facing an enemy. No matter what kind of opponent she encountered, only by remaining calm could she hope to win; otherwise, it was all empty talk. If she herself was in disarray, how could she talk about fighting the enemy?

Looking at Lu Qi's mid-stage Yang fire, Ya Ya quickly made her choice, sticking to the same tactics as yesterday: earth wrapped around gold to break through the fire, while also precisely grasping the changing requirements of earth encountering fire.

Taking a deep breath, she cheered herself on, and with one burst of energy, Ya Ya charged forward!

Ya Ya's proactive attack surprised Lu Qi slightly. He had heard of Li Yiyi's fierce reputation after yesterday's two battles, but he hadn't taken it to heart. In his view, winning against someone of a higher level was just a legend; perhaps it happened, but how many people could actually do it? At least he didn't believe that Li Yiyi could.

He was more confident that defeating Li Yiyi would be a simple matter. What he needed to pay attention to was the upcoming matches, and his energy was naturally focused on the later stages.

Therefore, when Li Yiyi charged at him with his spear, he wasn't worried. He was a dual-elemental fire cultivator; what was there to worry about when dealing with an early-stage three-elemental fire cultivator?

Ya Ya, despite being somewhat prepared, was still surprised by the power of a mid-stage dual-elemental fire cultivator. If it weren't for her earth element encasing her golden spear, it would have melted upon contact with the fire. Even so, the speed at which the earth turned into porcelain was much faster. She needed to be careful about this; when facing Wu Mei's late-stage single-elemental fire cultivator, she had to be quick, even faster.

Compared to yesterday's battle, Ya Ya's speed was noticeably faster today. Her use of magic, particularly the "Earth Wrapping Gold" technique, involved rapidly wrapping and binding the opponent's earth-transformation repeatedly, preventing the opponent from noticing the changes. Combined with Yuan Bai's intensive training yesterday, her positioning and precision had greatly improved. In short, if Ya Ya were to face yesterday's opponent today, she would undoubtedly win more easily.

But what about facing today's mid-game Lu Qi?

Victory! I will definitely win!

If I can't even defeat an opponent just one level higher than me, how can I talk about teaching Wu Mei a lesson? Victory!

This intense thought was the only thought in Ya Ya's mind, manifesting itself directly in her entire being, giving her a sharp and authoritative aura—a unique aura belonging to Ya Ya.

With this momentum, the fierce Li Yiyi broke through Lu Qi's fire attack and charged straight at Lu Qi. Lu Qi never expected that Li Yiyi could break through his fire attack. He was shocked and hurriedly tried to fight back, but compared to the well-prepared Li Yiyi, Lu Qi's hasty response naturally put him at a disadvantage. Even if you are a level higher, you still have to focus on fighting. Soon, Li Yiyi knocked Lu Qi off the stage. Li Yiyi won!

In this competition, it's less accurate to say that Li Yiyi won against Lu Qi, and more accurate to say that Lu Qi lost because of his carelessness.

In any case, Li Yiyi's fierce reputation once again spread throughout the Taixu Sect!

Chapter 131

"I didn't lose to you, I lost to myself." Even if he lost, Lu Qi felt that he had to lose gracefully.

"I only care about the result." Ya Ya's smile remained unchanged. It didn't matter. No matter what excuses she made, it was still a case of you losing and me winning.

As Lu Qi was defeated, Ya Ya raised her golden spear and enjoyed the cheers and congratulations of the crowd.

"Master Qingluo has quite a few treasures, both defensive and offensive. Even the Yang Fire of a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator couldn't harm Li Yiyi's golden spear." It was the same spot as yesterday, still Lei Ming and Qian Rou. This time, Qian Rou didn't hide her envy. Just how many treasures did Master Qingluo possess!

Qian Rou was right about the golden spear in Ya Ya's hand; it was indeed a treasure. However, even the best treasure depends on the user. Ya Ya's current cultivation level wasn't enough to unleash its true power. It couldn't rely solely on the spear itself; the user had to play a crucial role.

Adding metal energy to make it sharper, and earth energy to protect it, made it more shielding—this was Ya Ya's solution. Then, Yuan Bai drew talismans and created an array on the spear, concealing the traces of Ya Ya's metal and earth energy. Others wouldn't be able to see Ya Ya's use of her energy on the spear, only assuming it was the weapon's power. Of

course, a late-Foundation Establishment disciple couldn't discern the work of a Nascent Soul master and would also assume it was another of Master Qingluo's treasures.

“Even the most precious treasure can't withstand Wu Mei's single fire.” Lei Ming remained unconcerned. Passing the initial three fires was normal; passing the mid-stage two fires would be an exceptional performance, considering Li Yiyi had the backing of True Monarch Qingluo. But to say that Li Yiyi could break Wu Mei's late-stage single fire was simply impossible, Lei Ming thought. One was in the early Foundation Establishment stage, the other in the late Foundation Establishment stage; one had three spiritual roots, the other a single spiritual root—it was an impossible challenge across levels.

“Senior Brother, just prepare to offer up your Purple Thunder Umbrella.” Qian Rou didn't care about Lei Ming's attitude at all. As long as she won in the end, that was enough; she was becoming increasingly confident.

Lei Ming's lips twitched, but he ultimately said nothing and turned to leave.

“Senior Brother Lei, even your eternal smile can't hold up anymore? Tsk tsk—” Qian Rou pretended to be profound, resting her chin on her hand, clicking her tongue at Lei Ming's retreating figure. But in her eyes, there was a blatant mischievousness. To have the chance to break the eternal smile of the future leader of the Taixu Sect—what a powerful thing that was!

Three consecutive victories—one against an opponent of equal cultivation level, one against an opponent with weaker spiritual roots, and one against an opponent in both cultivation and spiritual roots—made Li Yiyi's name renowned throughout the Taixu Sect!

These three consecutive wins fueled the ordinary disciples' anticipation for future victories, and Li Yiyi certainly lived up to everyone's expectations.

The competition continued, and in the afternoon, Ya Ya faced her fourth match.

This time, her opponent was again a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator with dual spiritual roots in the Earth and Metal elements.

Ya Ya breathed a sigh of relief; finally, the heat had subsided. To be honest, although she had won the match, being constantly roasted by fire wasn't a pleasant feeling.

Both sides used swords, and Ya Ya, unfazed, continued to fight with her spear.

Aside from slightly straining her energy, Ya Ya felt this match was easier than the last. In terms of techniques, stances, and footwork, she was on par with her opponent. No wonder, with such a powerful backer, Yuan Bai always taught her the best; in these areas, Ya Ya couldn't possibly be lacking.

Perhaps it was also because her previous opponent was stronger than this one. There was no way around it; the fire elemental root definitely gave her an advantage. This time, without the fire danger, it was much easier for Ya Ya.

As soon as the two entered the arena, Ya Ya even shamelessly thought that if she had fire, she could let others experience being roasted over a flame.

Her energy wasn't much weaker, and within Ya Ya's tolerance range, her movement and skills were superior. Unsurprisingly, Ya Ya won!

Thus, she won her fourth match!

If Ya Ya could win the fifth match, she could smoothly enter the top 100 Foundation Establishment disciples ranking competition. Whether she entered the ranking competition or not wasn't too important to Ya Ya; what she cared about most now was when she could face Wu Mei.

The fifth match?

In the fifth match, Ya Ya did indeed face a late-stage Foundation Establishment opponent, but unfortunately, it wasn't Wu Mei. She felt a little disappointed; everyone around her knew of any danger and wanted to eliminate them as soon as possible.

There was no other way; since she hadn't encountered him yet, she would face the opponent before her. Although it wasn't Wu Mei, Ya Ya still put on her best effort

. This was a late-stage Foundation Establishment opponent, two levels higher than her, and not someone she could easily defeat. A late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator with dual fire and earth spiritual roots, Ya Ya had just rested when she experienced the agony of being roasted alive again, and this time it was even worse. In the late-stage Foundation Establishment, at least half of her internal energy had been converted into liquefied essence. This was because liquefying essence wasn't something that could be done with just a drop or two, just as advancing to Foundation Establishment required transforming qi into liquefied essence. This difference in energy manifested as a significant advantage in any kind of spell or technique exchange. In spells, the late-stage cultivator could unleash greater power, even using more spells due to the abundant energy. Even a simple fireball was purer and more powerful than those from the early or mid-stage. In techniques, the abundance of energy allowed for greater freedom and control.

To this, whether facing Wu Mei in the future, or her current opponent, or yesterday's opponent, as long as their cultivation is higher than hers, Ya Ya insists on only one thing: speed, faster, and even faster, reaching the maximum limit of her speed.

If you're competing with your opponent in terms of momentum, defense, and attack, once you're dragged out, no matter what, you can't gain the upper hand. Only by utilizing speed can you seize a sliver of victory.

Now, Ya Ya is still preparing in this way. After four matches, she has learned and experienced quite a bit, so let's fight!

Raising her golden spear, Ya Ya prepares for battle!

Seeing the already famous Li Yiyi approaching with her spear, Wen Wei's first reaction was similar to Lu Qi's back then—surprised that the opponent would also take the initiative to attack. After all, the opponent's cultivation is two levels lower than hers. Doesn't she know that her attack is tantamount to a mantis trying to stop a chariot?

As an opponent, Wen Wei also knew some of Li Yiyi's situation. He knew that the gun in her hand was very powerful. He didn't need to guess that it must have been prepared for Li Yiyi by Qingluo Zhenjun. However, Wen Wei was not afraid. No matter how powerful the gun was, Wen Wei could only use it as a high-grade magic weapon or a spiritual weapon. Even if Li Yiyi used it, with her current cultivation level, she could use a spiritual weapon to the effect of a magic weapon. If she could really use the effect of a spiritual weapon, he would be afraid. After all, spiritual weapons are commonly used by Golden Core True Persons. But magic weapons, the musket in his hand was also a magic weapon, and it was also a high-grade magic weapon. Since they were both magic weapons, why should he be afraid?

Fierce Li Yiyi? Then let him have his turn!

Chapter 132

The closer Ya Ya got, the more she felt the suppression of the early-stage Yuan Qi by the late-stage. This wasn't just the slightly strained mid-stage; it felt like Mount Tai pressing down on her. Ya Ya knew she had to finish this quickly. The longer it dragged on, the worse it would be for her. She could fight back against the opponent's late-stage

Yuan Qi with all her might, but only temporarily; she couldn't maintain it. A desperate gamble! Having made her decision, Ya Ya no longer hesitated, unleashing all her Yuan Qi in an attack!

The opponent possessed both fire and earth spiritual roots, so for Ya Ya to attack, the first thing she needed to break through was the opponent's fire circle. However, the moment Ya Ya touched the fire, she gritted her teeth. The heat, the fear of heat emanating from every part of her body, was overwhelming. Anyone with even a slightly weaker will would only be repelled. Fortunately, she had the great god Yuan Bai by her side. No matter how much Yuan Bai tried to suppress his pressure, it was still far beyond what a Foundation Establishment cultivator could achieve. Over time, Ya Ya had become psychologically accustomed to this pressure; otherwise, she certainly wouldn't have made it this far in so many competitions.

Her movements of wrapping earth in fire, breaking through earth, and then wrapping earth again were much faster, but Ya Ya still felt it wasn't enough. Moreover, don't forget, in close combat, the opponent also wielded a firearm. It was gun against gun; the opponent was fire, and she was metal. Her only advantage was the sharpness of metal, which could break the opponent's gun.

Wen Wei, after all, was already in the late Foundation Establishment stage, just one step away from becoming a Golden Core True Person. Whether or not he could cross that gap, his experience far surpassed that of Shen Chong in the early Foundation Establishment stage, or Wang Ran and Lu Qi in the mid-stage. Through observation, he could see Li Yiyi's extraordinary abilities. He secretly sighed, "With the legendary Qingluo True Monarch as my support, truly a great teacher produces a great student."

The fierce Li Yiyi wasn't just about being fierce; her aggressive style was complemented by excellent movement techniques. Every advance and retreat, every dodge and evasion, was timed perfectly, from the best angles. Her excellent movement techniques undoubtedly contributed to her victory. Don't underestimate movement techniques; good movement is a huge asset in combat, essential for offense, defense, and retreat.

However, Wen Wei's sense of superiority as a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator still didn't bother him. No matter how good her movement techniques were, she couldn't escape his grasp!

Like many others, Wen Wei couldn't believe that he, a late Foundation Establishment cultivator, could be defeated by someone in the early Foundation Establishment stage. So

what if she had good movement techniques? His strength was superior; what was there to fear? Moreover, he possessed a fire elemental root, a late-stage Yang fire, which was not something a Foundation Establishment cultivator with only three elemental roots could easily defeat!

Wen Wei even had a somewhat mischievous streak, avoiding direct confrontation with Li Yiyi's attacks and instead focusing on defense. His current strategy was to stall, precisely what Ya Ya had been most worried about.

Since she was concerned, Ya Ya naturally prepared accordingly. Besides continuously improving her speed, she also put a lot of effort into her movement techniques. The Xianyun Steps were practically prepared for Ya Ya by Yuan Bai, usable not only in the Foundation Establishment stage but also in the Golden Core stage, demonstrating their exceptional quality. Ya Ya, in particular, had ample room for improvement in the Foundation Establishment stage.

A good movement technique combines attack, defense, and escape. Ya Ya understood the advantages of her own movement technique better than Wen Wei. If you want to dodge, I'll make it impossible for you to avoid!

As long as it wasn't a battle of raw energy, Ya Ya wasn't afraid!

Soon, Wen Wei's expression changed. He knew Li Yiyi's movement techniques were impressive, but he hadn't expected them to be this powerful!

He was so powerful that even if he wanted to drag out the match, trying to defend and render Li Yiyi's attacks ineffective, he couldn't. However, he wasn't in a hurry. Since that was the case, he wouldn't drag it out. Li Yiyi wanted to end the match quickly, right? Okay, then let's end it quickly.

Wen Wei changed tactics, no longer taking the initiative to defend, but instead taking the initiative to attack like Li Yiyi.

Because of Wen Wei's initiative, Ya Ya suddenly felt much more pressure, but this was better than being dragged out by him!

Even now, Ya Ya still wasn't going to use the move she had devised to deal with Wu Mei. Wen Wei was very powerful, but he was still no match for Wu Mei. Dual-elemental-fire and single-elemental-fire were completely different concepts. She wanted to win against Wen Wei, and she wanted to win against Wu Mei even more. Therefore, she would definitely not use the trick she had prepared for Wu Mei at this moment.

So, she would continue with the previous method: quickly using Earth to Wrap Gold, then engaging in close combat, avoiding a direct clash of the opponent's vital energy, and winning through skill. It seemed difficult, but it wasn't impossible to win.

"Fight! If I can't get past this, I shouldn't even think about dealing with Wu Mei with my current strength. What's a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator? I'm fighting a Nascent Soul cultivator every day! Let's fight! Who's afraid of who!"

Ya Ya fought fiercely. Wen Wei's Yang Fire was the biggest challenge Ya Ya had ever faced. However, a great challenge meant a great opportunity. Under these circumstances, Ya Ya was forced to increase her speed even more. Only by being fast could she possibly overcome Wen Wei's fire. All this happened in an instant. Ya Ya had already wrapped herself in earth, shaken it off, and rushed out of the fire circle to engage Wen Wei in close combat.

Wen Wei had already grasped the first level of the Xianyun Footwork, making it impossible to avoid. Now, he had grasped the second level of the Xianyun Footwork, making you powerless despite your will. The almost perfect combination of footwork and offense in his eyes prevented him from fully utilizing his advantages. The abundance of his Yuan Qi—without this advantage, what difference was there between him and Li Yiyi, a disciple in the early stage of Foundation Establishment? This battle made him feel very frustrated.

Every time he tried to shift his position to unleash his full energy, Li Yiyi would instantly deflect the golden spear in front of him, rendering his efforts futile. This happened once, twice, three times, four times—

finally, after so many attempts, Wen Wei, whose fire spirit root was more easily agitated than others, couldn't help but become impatient. As a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, Wen Wei still had much to hone.

But Ya Ya wasn't affected by Wen Wei's impatience. She continued to thrust at him relentlessly, one spear after another. He dodged, but she made it impossible for him to dodge; he didn't dodge, and she became even more ferocious, limiting Wen Wei's energy usage while launching attacks with maximum force.

It could be said that in a spear fight, with the movement techniques and skills Ya Ya had learned, Wen Wei was no match for her.

Despite his impatience, Wen Wei hadn't completely lost his judgment. He quickly grasped his predicament, sheathing his musket. Although named "Fire," it couldn't compare to the Heavenly Fire within him. He believed Li Yiyi could withstand the musket, but certainly not his attack powered primarily by Heavenly Fire!

As for Li Yiyi's earlier breakthrough of his fire circle, he didn't care. Defense was one thing, offense was another.

However, Wen Wei hadn't expected that seeing him sheath his weapon and switch to fire, Ya Ya was secretly delighted. Although she wasn't using the surprise attack she'd saved for Wu Mei, her golden spear still preferred to strike unexpectedly.

Using the same tactic—earth encasing gold—again, she met Wen Wei's fire attack. Seeing that Li Yiyi's golden spear hadn't melted in her fire attack, Wen Wei was finally astonished. What kind of treasure was this?!

This shock finally caught up with Wen Wei's reaction. In that instant, Ya Ya seized the moment, thrusting her spear straight at Wen Wei's face. Without pausing, she kicked, her foot striking along with the golden spear. If Ya Ya had the chance to execute this move, Wen Wei would have no chance of recovery!

This was the essence of a technique Yuan Bai had prepared for Ya Ya; how could a mere late-stage Foundation Establishment disciple possibly break it!

Wen Wei was forced off the stage. Once again, the fierce Li Yiyi won!

Chapter 133

Whoosh! When late-stage Foundation Establishment Wen Wei was knocked off the stage, the people around the arena gasped in disbelief!

Had he really won? Some disciples still couldn't believe what they were seeing, pinching their hands hard, wincing in pain, before confirming they weren't dreaming. The fierce Li Yiyi had won again!

Li Yiyi, with three spiritual roots in the early-stage Foundation Establishment period, had truly defeated Wen Wei, with two spiritual roots in the late-stage Foundation Establishment period!

This world is truly insane. Legends unfold right before our eyes. To live in this era and witness the birth of legends is a blessing, but to be overshadowed by their brilliance is also a misfortune.

"Senior Brother Lei, how about it? I'm definitely getting the Purple Thunder Umbrella this time." With five consecutive wins, Li Yiyi is getting closer and closer to her ultimate goal. "

The round-robin tournament begins. The first match is between Li Yiyi and Wu Mei." Lei Ming finished speaking and left. Once the round-robin tournament begins, as long as Wu Mei and Li Yiyi both enter, their match will be the first one scheduled. As for why they aren't scheduled for the knockout stage, Lei Ming has his reasons. There's no other way; both of them have a powerful figure behind them. If they were eliminated in the knockout stage, Lei Ming worried it would be embarrassing for the two powerful figures. Therefore, he can only stagger their encounters, letting them meet in the round-robin tournament. Whether they can get through the knockout stage depends on their abilities.

To help them warm up beforehand, Lei Ming arranged for those with fire spiritual roots to go to Li Yiyi and those with metal spiritual roots to go to Wu Mei, showing impartiality and ensuring everyone got a share even if someone was favored.

However, to be honest, Lei Ming wasn't optimistic about Li Yiyi's chances, more so than worrying about Wu Mei not being able to attend the competition. After all, her cultivation was too low, only at the early Foundation Establishment stage. Generally, early Foundation Establishment disciples participating in the competition were just going through the motions, playing the role of guests. He hadn't expected the final result to be like this, and Li Yiyi's initial skepticism had wavered after this victory. If Li Yiyi could defeat a late-stage dual-spiritual-root disciple with three early-stage spiritual roots, why couldn't she defeat a late-stage single-spiritual-root disciple as well?

Let him wait and see!

Compared to Lei Ming's expectations, Ya Ya's own expectations were even higher. Lei Ming's expectations were merely those of an observer, indifferent to winning or losing. But Ya Ya was a participant, and winning or losing depended on her own efforts. For a man who so blatantly dared to covet her, Li Yi Yi had only one belief: to win!

The arrangement of the round-robin tournament did not disappoint her. The first match was between her and Wu Mei. Playing a few more matches against Wu Mei would help her accumulate more experience, but her truest thought was that she didn't want to wait any longer. No matter how many matches she played, she would be fighting Wu Mei at a higher level. Since she didn't want to wait any longer, then she wouldn't wait. She was most satisfied with the current result.

"Ya Ya, are you scared of today's competition?" Early in the morning, Ya Ya woke up slowly in Yuan Bai's arms after their dual cultivation. The two were still naked under the thin blanket. One arm held Ya Ya in his embrace, the other gently caressing her smooth, white back, letting her perfect curves roam in his hand. Thinking back to their lovemaking before the dual cultivation last night, Yuan Bai felt it was just a taste of passion, not enough. But there was no other way; now, in the competition, everything had to revolve around Ya Ya. Dual cultivation was what Ya Ya needed most right now. If she wanted to truly experience the passion, she could only wait until the competition was over.

"I'm not scared." She shifted slightly, her legs still wrapped around his, her arms around his waist, her hand sliding down to his crotch. Ya Ya didn't dare to ignite anything further; at this moment, they could only enjoy a brief taste.

Yuan Bai's teasing touch on her back was something Ya Ya couldn't help but feel. Yuan Bai felt it was just a taste of flesh, and she felt the same way. Their bodies and minds were connected, making her even more eager to indulge in the pleasures of love with Yuan Bai, enjoying the feeling of floating on clouds. Unfortunately, since she participated in the Centennial Grand Competition, their lovemaking had been more for the sake of dual cultivation. How could they truly enjoy themselves? Not only did Yuan Bai want a good, unrestrained experience, but she did too.

"We're not afraid of losing." He pressed her tightly against his chest, no longer daring to play with fire. Instead, he had to calm his breathing and extinguish the flames. Now was not the right time for them to make love.

"I will try my best to defeat her!" Even knowing the gap between them, she still wanted to win!

"After the competition, we'll go to the central peak of the back mountain to help you draw fire into your body." In the past few matches, the biggest disadvantage for Ya Ya was the threat of her opponent's fire. If Ya Ya could also use fire attacks, this threat would naturally be much less.

"Weren't you going to teach the Golden Core cultivators for a year?" Ya Ya also felt the change in Yuan Bai's yang organ between her legs. Only after it subsided did Ya Ya raise her head and look at him.

"I'll go after your competition. There's still the Golden Core competition afterward. After all the competitions are over, there's the distribution of sect rewards and stuff. We'll have enough time. After we've guided our fire into our bodies, we'll come back. Then, you can go into seclusion to refine your fire, and I'll go teach. It won't interfere with either of us. Besides, even if I can't come back right away, it's okay. I promised to teach for a year, so I'll keep my promise. There's no rule that it has to start right after the competition. A few days later is fine. I'll talk to the sect leader." Originally, he had decided to go after the year's teaching was completed, but he was going to enter the secret realm a year later, so he had to go earlier. If he delayed until he came out of the secret realm, Yuan Bai felt it would be too late, and besides, he didn't know when he would be able to leave the secret realm.

"Okay." After experiencing the competition with the disciples with fire spirit roots, Ya Ya was even more looking forward to the day when she could also use fire.

"Today I've prepared a new Five Elements Jade Robe for you. Don't wear yesterday's; this one is much stronger. As long as you don't reach the Nascent Soul stage, you won't be afraid of the Golden Core stage. When my cultivation is higher, I'll even get one for the Nascent Soul stage." Standing behind Wu Mei was Chi Xian; who knew what treasure Chi Xian might bring out? Just in case, Yuan Bai had already made preparations.

"I won't change the spear; it's just a decoy, so I won't change it." He reached for the prepared new jade robe and helped Ya Ya put it on.

"Okay, don't watch." Yuan Bai hadn't watched the previous competition, firstly because of his status, and secondly, Ya Ya didn't want him to go. She didn't know if she felt pressured, but she knew that if he went, her opponents would definitely feel pressured. With pressure, regardless of their performance, others would see her victory as unfair. She didn't want that. In this kind of competition, she wanted to win fair and square.

Today, she didn't want him to go, not because of pressure, but because she didn't want that woman Wu Mei to see him!

Hmph, whether she showed her man to others was entirely up to her!

"Okay, I won't go see her. I'll wait for you to come back." After getting dressed, he hugged her and lingered tenderly for a few more moments. How could he not know her little thoughts? However, he liked this feeling, the feeling of being held tightly in her heart. He was happy.

"Make the food and wait for me." He held her head and kissed her deeply.

"Make all your favorite dishes, okay?" He murmured, reluctant to let go.

"Okay!" The two released each other. Ya Ya didn't look back and rode away on a crane.

For him, for her, she had to win!

Chapter 134

"If you lose, you'd better leave Qingluo Zhenjun. How can a mortal like you be worthy of a Zhenjun!" Finally, Ya Ya and Wu Mei stood on the competition stage. Wu Mei looked at Ya Ya with arrogance, as if Li Yiyi was already her defeated opponent.

"I'm here to participate in the competition. Whether I win or lose, what does it have to do with True Lord?" Compared to Wu Mei's arrogance, Li Yiyi was all smiles in front of everyone. In just one glance, everyone had already formed their opinions on the two of them.

Although Li Yiyi had a nickname of fierceness, it was only fierceness on the field. Once on the competition stage, who wouldn't want to win? Fierceness is also a means of winning, and it was also Li Yiyi's fighting style. But in reality, no one had ever seen Li Yiyi be fierce in his daily life. Logically speaking, with True Lord Qingluo as a powerful backer, he could do whatever he wanted. But in the few months that Li Yiyi had given people the impression of never bullying anyone, while Wu Mei had done so many times.

Unfortunately, Wu Mei was always arrogant and didn't know how unpopular she was in the Taixu Sect.

"Hmph, you, a defeated opponent, still have the nerve to hang around True Lord's side? Don't you have any shame?" Wu Mei was furious. She really was shameless.

"If you want to compete, then compete. If not, step down and you automatically forfeit." If the occasion weren't inappropriate, Ya Ya would have really wanted to yell at her, "Have you ever had your head slammed in a door? Using a man as a contest? What do you take this man for? A toy to be summoned and dismissed at will, snatched when you like, and thrown away when you don't? This girl has grown a body but not a brain."

The crowd below erupted in commotion. Wu Mei's voice wasn't quiet at all. Now everyone understood; Wu Mei had taken a liking to True Monarch Qingluo and was here to provoke him.

"Hmph, just because you're a disciple of True Lord Chi Xian, does that give you the right to do whatever you want? True Lord Qing Luo is no match for someone as arrogant as you!"

Hearing Wu Mei's extremely arrogant words, the crowd felt even more contempt. It was one thing for Wu Mei to bully those of them who had no power or influence, but bully Li Yiyi? Haha, she has a powerful backer too, just like you! Who's afraid of who!

Wu Mei had no idea she had become so detestable. All along, she had been too self-assured, believing she was almost universally loved.

Chen Yijun gritted her teeth in the crowd, furious. If she hadn't made pretending a habit, she probably would have broken down today. She had known Wu Mei was stupid for a long time, otherwise she wouldn't have used her as a scapegoat, but she hadn't expected Wu Mei to be this stupid, this incredibly stupid!

These words came out before anything even happened. In that case, the outcome of the competition wouldn't matter to Li Yiyi. But if the order were reversed, and someone decisively defeated Li Yiyi, then these words would be used to humiliate her. Li Yiyi would absolutely not be able to bear it. Even if Li Yiyi didn't leave, a rift would be created between them, and once that rift is there, their relationship wouldn't last. Unfortunately, that idiot on the stage ruined everything. What a waste of all the effort she put into this plan! Chen Yijun's eyes blazed with anger. If it weren't for the large crowd and the suddenness of leaving, she wouldn't want to stay any longer. Win or lose? Hmph, Wu Mei had already lost.

"You want to fight me?" Wu Mei scoffed, as if she'd heard a huge joke. Yes, in her eyes, Li Yiyi wanting to compete with her was a joke. A Foundation Establishment cultivator with three spiritual roots in the early stage dared to challenge her, a Foundation Establishment cultivator with a single fire spiritual root in the late stage? There was no chance of her winning.

"You don't want to fight me? Referee, Wu Mei must concede." Ya Ya didn't take Wu Mei's actions seriously at all, and didn't want to waste any more words with her. You can provoke me, so can I.

"I originally wanted you to be sensible and concede willingly, so you wouldn't lose so badly and act like you're going to die. Now that you want to fight, I'll make sure you have no face to stay in the Tai Xu Sect!" Wu Mei raised her hand, and fire appeared in her palm. This was her internal Heavenly Fire, the fire of the late stage of Foundation Establishment with a single spiritual root. She had never lost to a Foundation Establishment disciple. Little Li Yiyi, early stage of Foundation Establishment, three spiritual roots—it wasn't that she wanted to look down on her, but Li Yiyi really had nothing to be proud of!

If it were any other opponent, someone with a similar cultivation level, Wu Mei would handle them carefully, but with Li Yiyi, she felt there was no need. She had heard that Li Yiyi's specialty was offense, and coincidentally, she also liked offense. She would let them finish quickly, and she would defeat Li Yiyi as quickly as possible!

Seeing Wu Mei's offensive stance, Ya Ya was secretly pleased. Compared to defense, she preferred this fighting style. When facing someone with a higher cultivation level, she absolutely couldn't afford to drag things out. If she did, her vital energy would be depleted, and vital energy was already a fatal flaw. If it was depleted, what was the

point of the competition? Therefore, even if the opponent took the initiative to attack, increasing the pressure on Ya Ya, she was willing to choose this offensive-offensive approach.

However, Wu Mei was indeed quite skilled. Although her personality was not likable, it couldn't be denied that she had the capital to be arrogant during the Foundation Establishment stage. But as soon as she got close, Ya Ya could already deeply feel the power of a single fire-type spiritual root. When she competed with Wen Wei, Wen Wei's fire made Ya Ya feel a fear of fire throughout her body. But now, this fear had risen to the depths of her soul, demonstrating the power of her fire. Even though Ya Ya had made ample preparations, she still unconsciously took a step back because of this deep-seated fear of fire.

"What, do you know how powerful you are now? Too bad, it's too late. But if you kneel down and beg for mercy, I might consider it." Seeing Ya Ya step aside, Wu Mei became even more smug. Didn't she say she only knew how to attack? What is she now? Just a temporary display of power against an opponent of the same level. If she really encountered someone stronger than her, would she have the ability to attack?

Wu Mei completely ignored the fact that Ya Ya's opponents in the following matches were all more powerful than Ya Ya in cultivation. She only thought these people were all show and no substance.

Wu Mei was really used to being arrogant because of Chi Xian's backing. It was one thing to be arrogant towards a disciple normally, but today, now, in front of everyone, such insulting words just slipped out. Anyone with a shred of decency couldn't accept it. Wu Mei didn't expect that from now on, she would become the most tacitly ostracized target among the many disciples of the Tai Xu Sect.

"Does my stepping aside mean I'm scared? Don't you have a brain?" Ya Ya couldn't hold back any longer. This girl was overconfident. Li Yiyi wasn't so weak as to be easily slaughtered, was she? She had at least defeated opponents in the late Foundation Establishment stage before, even if she didn't have a single spiritual root, she had at least proven her ability to win against opponents of higher levels. She didn't know where this girl's confidence came from. Had this girl never learned the word "cautious"?

The result of Ya Ya's words was that many people in the audience nodded in agreement. Yes, this girl never seemed to use her brain.

Ignoring the reactions of the audience, Ya Ya drew her spear to meet the attack. But when the golden spear met Wu Mei's fire, Ya Ya quickly coated the spear with clay. As the clay turned to porcelain, she swiftly sheathed the golden spear, revealing the now-formed porcelain spear, aimed directly at Wu Mei's face.

Wu Mei didn't react to Ya Ya's porcelain spear, and neither did the audience. This—this was—

Li Yiyi's golden spear had such a transformation!
