I let you tame beasts, and you've already formed a contract with your stunningly beautiful mast

As we left Baihua Peak, night had fallen.

Cao Kun rode his sword across the night sky, heading straight for the main hall of Lianxiang Peak.

Counting the time, ... a full six hours have passed now.

These six hours were nothing more than a matter of course for Cao Kun.

But for Yu Linglong...

Hey.

Cao Kun imagined the scene and grinned from ear to ear.

Upon reaching the white jade steps outside the main hall, Cao Kun did not rush inside.

Instead, he silently probed into the hall with his divine sense.

Behind the sandalwood and jade table.

……

Cao Kun withdrew his divine sense and couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his mind.

This cheap master is quite resilient.

He truly deserves to be called a Golden Core stage cultivator.

……

came back!

Yu Linglong instinctively tried to get up to greet him, but because her legs were numb, she fell back onto the throne.

She dared not utter a sound, and could only stare longingly at the heavy palace door, waiting for Cao Kun to push it open and enter.

however.

The people outside the door stopped.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Kun's voice, tinged with a hint of laziness and weariness, came clearly through the door.

"Ugh, today was so tiring."

"After treating Qingyue's illness for so long and then going to the outer sect, my spiritual energy has been greatly depleted."

"Never mind, it's the middle of the night, I won't disturb Master's cultivation."

"Let's go back to the herb garden and get some sleep first, and talk about it tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps turning and leaving could be heard from outside the door.

Lopsided.

Inside the hall.

Yu Linglong's mind went blank for a moment, and she was completely stunned.

gone?

He's actually leaving?!

I have been suffering here for a full six hours.

Even when his apprentice came to pay his respects, he endured the risk of dying and forced himself to stay.

We've been waiting for you for so long!

You actually said you were tired and wanted to go back to sleep?!

"Cao Kun!"

Yu Linglong's pent-up grievances and despair erupted instantly.

She no longer cared about the elder's dignity, nor about the soreness in her legs.

He scrambled down from the throne, stumbling and staggering toward the palace gate.

"Bang!"

The heavy palace doors were pushed open from the inside.

Yu Linglong collapsed onto the threshold.

Raise your head.

It met Cao Kun's face, which had a half-smile on it.

Cao Kun never left.

He was standing just two steps away from the door.

"Master, it's so late, aren't you resting yet?"

Cao Kun looked at her leisurely, his tone full of mockery.

Seeing the mockery in Cao Kun's eyes, Yu Linglong immediately realized that she had been tricked by this bastard again.

But she no longer has the strength to be angry.

……

She pressed her cheek against Cao Kun's chest.

It rubbed against me.

It rubbed against me again.

……

……

"Don't go..."

Yu Linglong's voice was hoarse, filled with the sound of sobbing.

……

……

……

But the tears in her eyes flowed even more fiercely.

"I overheard you saying that Qingyue came by during the day when I was outside the door?"

Cao Kun asked the question knowing the answer already.

Speaking of Leng Qingyue.

Yu Linglong, who was still greedily enjoying herself, suddenly stiffened.

The image of his disciple saying he wanted to become Cao Kun's Daoist partner in the main hall during the day resurfaced in his mind.

A strong sour smell surged up uncontrollably.

A hint of resentment flashed in Yu Linglong's eyes.

She bit her red lips, her voice sweet and cloying, tinged with obvious jealousy.

"The master asked again?"

"Your dear junior sister, you came to me in broad daylight, quite the show of bravado."

Yu Linglong stretched out her slender fingers and drew circles on Cao Kun's chest.

"She not only said that the cold poison was completely cured, but that her cultivation level had also broken through."

"She even vowed that she would never marry anyone but her master in this lifetime."

"They even allowed me to formally become Daoist partners."

At this point, Yu Linglong's eyes reddened again.

She gripped Cao Kun's collar tightly, her voice filled with grievance and urgency.

"Master...you can't agree to her request!"

Cao Kun raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise.

"Oh? Why can't you agree?"

"Junior Sister Qingyue is exceptionally talented and possesses a top-grade Ice Spirit Body. Now, she is completely devoted to me."

"Such an excellent Daoist partner is hard to find even with a lantern."

Yu Linglong became anxious.

She straddled Cao Kun's lap and cupped his face in her hands.

"What does she know!"

Yu Linglong was eager to belittle her apprentice.

"She's used to being aloof and doesn't know how to serve people at all."

"Moreover, her top-grade ice spirit body is so weak that it simply cannot withstand the master's favor."

"Master, Linglong is enough~"

Yu Linglong's voice trailed off with a long, sweet tone that made one's bones almost melt.

She leaned in and pecked Cao Kun on the lips.

"Linglong obeys her master in everything."

"Linglong is more sensible and better at serving people than her. Linglong's cultivation is also higher, allowing her to stay with her master for longer."

"Master, please ignore her, okay?"

Hearing these words...

Cao Kun almost burst out laughing.

Goodness, this is way too curly!

A powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Golden Core realm, in order to win favor, actually went so far as to secretly and viciously belittle his own disciple.

If this gets out, she will completely disgrace the Hehuan Sect.

Cao Kun reached out and pinched Yu Linglong's cheek, teasing her on purpose.

"Yo."

"A dignified elder of the Hehuan Sect, and the most beautiful woman in Qingzhou."

"Why are you getting jealous of your own precious disciple?"

Yu Linglong's thoughts were exposed, and her cheeks flushed red.

But she couldn't bear to let go of Cao Kun's neck.

Instead, they hugged each other even tighter.

"I... Linglong is just jealous!"

Yu Linglong, having given up all hope, directly admitted it.

She buried her face in Cao Kun's neck, her voice muffled.

"I was the one who did it first..."

"It was clearly me who offered myself to my master to save her."

"Why should she try to steal the master's title now that she's recovered?"

"I don't even have a formal title yet!"

Yu Linglong felt more and more wronged as she spoke.

Why should I be the one tormented to the point of near death?

How could that brat openly demand the status of a Daoist partner?

No!

Absolutely not!

Cao Kun sighed inwardly as he looked at Yu Linglong's sickly and anxious appearance.

This woman is completely ruined.

However, that's not enough.

The fire in the battleground needs another fuel.

Cao Kun sighed, his tone tinged with a hint of reminiscence.

"Master, you're wronging Qingyue."

"Although Qingyue is a bit weak, she is very obedient."

Cao Kun deliberately lowered his voice.

"This afternoon, we were outside the herb garden..."

"She's very obedient; she'll do whatever you ask her to do."

"That submissive attitude pleases me greatly."

Outside the herb garden?

In the yard?!

Yu Linglong could hardly believe her ears.

Leng Qingyue, who was always aloof and arrogant, and would draw her sword even if a male disciple glanced at her.

How could they be willing to do such a shameless thing in broad daylight?!

A strong sense of crisis overwhelmed Yu Linglong.

Leng Qingyue, do you want to take over?

dream!

Today, I will show my master who truly understands him!

Yu Linglong felt a burning fighting spirit ignite within her.

She ripped off the purple dress that was half-hanging from her shoulder.

"What she can do, Linglong can do too!"

"What she can't do, Linglong can do too!"

"Master, Linglong will show you the methods of the Hehuan Sect elders today!"

Done.

【...+5! 】

Listening to this series of notification sounds.

Cao Kun was in a great mood.

Not only did they win over Liu Rumeng, they also pushed Yu Linglong's progress bar forward by a significant amount.

These days are getting better and better, and there's more and more hope for us.
