If I stay in the Hehuan Sect, I'll live off the pampered daughters of the Heavenly Pride Sect.

"trouble."

Mo Chengyue sighed inwardly.

Since there's no way to resist, then... all we can do is enjoy it?

Pooh!

It's exploitation!

Mo Chengyue's brain was working at full speed.

Yu Jianhuan's current cultivation level is only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, and he's still a weakling with a damaged foundation.

Once you enter the battlefield between immortals and demons, you'll just be a burden.

Not only can I not act as a human shield, but I might also have to distract myself to save her.

This does not align with the core interests of the "Gu Dao" (a philosophy of seeking one's own way).

We must strengthen her combat capabilities.

Turn her into a competent tool, a tanky and capable... high-level cannon fodder!

"Since you're going to smoke..."

A glint of light flashed in Mo Chengyue's eyes.

"Then I'll let you smoke your fill!"

"But this 'service fee'..."

"But it won't be the same price as last time."

I've figured that out.

Mo Chengyue stopped pretending to resist in a pointless manner.

The vortex of the Yin-Yang Virtue Harmony Scripture within his body did not reverse into a black hole as it did last time.

Instead... it's clockwise!

Previously it was "plunder mode".

We're now in the "VIP Benefit Mode"!

This is the move he used on Su Qingying at Wanqi Mountain.

This time, however, it was more skillful and more controllable.

"boom!"

At the very moment the two were united.

Yu Jianhuan's previously ferocious expression froze instantly.

She anticipated a protracted battle.

She used her charm to forcibly extract Mo Chengyue's true essence.

But the reality is...

That familiar, domineering, and unreasonable spiritual power erupted once again from the body of the man beneath him.

Open the floodgates to release the floodwaters!

An unimaginably powerful surge of pure Yang energy, like the Yellow River bursting its banks, roared into her body!

heat!

hot!

That's energy refined to the extreme!

It contains no impurities and requires no refining.

This energy forcefully broke through her atrophied meridians, repairing her damaged foundation.

"Well……"

Yu Jianhuan's eyes widened suddenly, and she instantly curled up like a shrimp.

Her pupils contracted sharply, and a distorted whimper escaped her throat.

too fast!

So fierce!

This feeling... is like a beggar suddenly being knocked unconscious by a mountain of gold!

pain.

The excruciating pain of having one's meridians forcibly widened.

Cool.

My soul was tingling from being washed over and over again.

Ice and Fire.

She could only instinctively grip Mo Chengyue's arm tightly, her nails digging deep into his flesh.

"How...how could this be..."

She wanted to speak.

But that energy didn't give her a chance to speak.

Mo Chengyue's counterattack has begun.

Since the decision has been made to "invest", then the client must know who the real major shareholder is.

He is no longer a passive recipient.

He's in control of all of this!

The Yin-Yang Virtue Harmony Classic operates, and the two energies of Yin and Yang circulate continuously, generating endless life.

Mo Chengyue was an extremely skilled alchemist.

Use your body as a furnace and your breath as fire.

He was using Yu Jianhuan as a "human-shaped elixir" to refine himself!

"No...don't stop..."

Yu Jianhuan's rationality completely collapsed.

She felt as if she were floating on clouds and sinking in lava.

His cultivation, which had stagnated due to damage, began to loosen wildly.

Mid-stage Foundation Building...

Peak of mid-Foundation Establishment...

boom!

The barrier is broken!

Late foundation building!

And it hasn't stopped yet!

That mysterious power emanating from Mo Chengyue's body was inexhaustible.

It was still pushing her upwards!

She raced wildly toward that realm she longed for but could never reach!

"This...no, what exactly is hidden inside Junior Brother Mo's body?!"

This was the last thought that flashed through Yu Jianhuan's mind.

Then.

She was completely captivated by this surge of energy that was enough to elevate her soul.

That night.

The soundproof barrier of the No. 7 spaceship underwent an extremely severe test.

The saintess Lin Miaoyin next door had been meditating all night, but inexplicably felt a little irritable and restless.

She felt there was a scent in the air that made her blush.

"Lack of self-control."

"It seems that my mindset still needs to be tempered."

Lin Miaoyin frowned and added another handful of calming herbs to the incense burner.

……

The next morning.

The first ray of sunlight streamed through the porthole into the messy room.

The air still held a mixture of ambiguous and violent spiritual energy.

Mo Chengyue was already dressed and ready.

He stood by the bed, adjusting his cuffs.

His handsome face was refreshed and showed no signs of fatigue.

Even more so, his aura became deeper and more restrained.

This dual cultivation session resulted in the expenditure of a significant amount of true essence.

However, the Yin-Yang Virtue Harmony Classic emphasizes the complementarity of Yin and Yang.

The pure Yin energy within Yu Jianhuan's body, after circulating last night, also nourished his Dao foundation.

The foundation was compacted again.

Absolutely guaranteed!

"Um……"

A lazy groan came from the bed.

Yu Jianhuan slowly opened her eyes.

That instant.

A terrifying aura erupted from her.

Peak of late-stage Foundation Establishment!

Just one step away from touching that golden path called "Core Formation"!

She looked at her hands in disbelief.

Feel the surging spiritual energy within my body.

Are you dreaming?

This is even more outrageous than a dream!

Just one night!

Not only did she fully recover from her injuries, but she even skipped two grades, saving herself at least twenty years of arduous training!

"woke up?"

A detached voice rang out.

Yu Jianhuan suddenly looked up.

She looked at Mo Chengyue, who was standing against the light.

At this moment, he was no longer the trembling junior brother he had been the night before.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes as calm as an ancient well.

That subtle yet palpable pressure actually made her, a peak late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, feel a pang of fear.

"Who...who are you?"

Yu Jianhuan was wrapped in a blanket, her voice trembling.

There was both fear and awe.

There's also a certain indescribable...sense of submission.

Who I am is not important.

Mo Chengyue turned around, a meaningful, wicked smile appearing on his lips.

"The important thing is that my senior sister is very strong now."

"Strong enough to protect myself on the battlefield ahead."

"And by the way... protect my 'weak' junior brother."

Yu Jianhuan was taken aback.

Then she understood.

This is a transaction.

It's also hush money.

It was more than that... a contract of servitude.

She bit her lip, her eyes filled with an extremely complex expression.

"Aren't you afraid that once I regain my strength, I'll kill you?"

"Kill me?"

Mo Chengyue must have heard a funny joke.

He leaned down slightly, getting closer to Yu Jianhuan's face.

Even from a distance, Yu Jianhuan could feel that sense of oppression.

"Senior sister, are you willing to part with her?"

"The man in this world who can transform you overnight..."

"Besides me, is there a second one?"

Yu Jianhuan's pupils contracted.

Yes.

This speed of cultivation, this feeling of trembling in one's soul.

It's practically drugs!

Once you're hooked, you can never quit!

Kill him?

Who should I contact to "recharge" my account after that?

Go find those useless people?

"and……"

Mo Chengyue reached out and tucked the blanket around her.

His movements were gentle, but his tone was cold.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

What I can give you, I can also take back.
