Kapitel 131: Progress for Xiaogang! + Foreshadowing?
"Run, run, run! Keep on running, girls!"
Every day was the same for Little Niu and Pachong.
In the morning they would run, while in the afternoon they would fight, and at night they would cultivate.
The two little girls followed this strict routine for over a week, and the rewards they reaped were incredible.
As Wulin expected, Little Niu made a breakthrough and reached the peak of the Spirit Scholar level.
As for Pachong, she also broke through to the fifth Spirit Rank, which made her incredibly happy.
She was glad to be able to progress at a rate similar to Little Niu, even though it was only the early levels.
Right now, they weren't able to feel the gap between each other as their Spirit Rank was too low.
However, should Pachong be unable to take the Spirit Liquid, she would soon realise that she could no longer keep up with Little Niu as she could before.
...
After getting a list of the other children who were eligible to participate, Wulin had confidence in Little Niu's ability to win the competition.
He drilled the basics of fighting into her, giving her an advantage on the other children, and she was at the peak of Spirit Scholar level.
She had no competitors among the commoner children; only the children and disciples of elders could threaten her place at the top.
Commoner children all trained together in the free training grounds. Occasionally, they would receive some training by the older generation from the commoner group, and on rare occasions, by an elder.
Ning Yuzi is also known to go and teach at the public training grounds, though he hasn't appeared in recent times.
...
Little Niu and Pachong were huffing and puffing as they ran around the courtyard.
Their cheeks were fuller, and they had more meat on their bones, giving the two of them a healthy glow.
Their healthy appearance was thanks to the nutritional food Wulin has been feeding them after they train.
It was made from things he grew in the Immortal Realm.
With ingredients that soaked up Spirit Energy six times more abundant than the outside world, Wulin was able to make the best meals.
It only took about a week for Little Niu and Pachong to recover from their slightly malnourished appearances.
They had a lot of energy and ran a lot more, so Wulin has been gradually pushing them harder.
Like he has been doing for the past week, Wulin made Little Niu and Pachong a nutritious meal while they were finishing their run.
The magnificently enticing smell of the fish wafted into the nostrils of Little Niu and Pachong.
They realised Wulin was cooking again and they received a second wind, running twice as fast as they were before.
...
"Father, are you feeling well?"
Xue Qinghe entered the throne room where Emperor Xue Ye was sitting on his throne in contemplation.
Xue Ye looked up and saw Xue Qinghe looking at him. His eyes displayed concern and caring.
He smiled affectionately at Xue Qinghe, his genius son, "I am doing fine. I was just thinking about Little Ke."
Since Xue Ke returned from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan ten days ago, she became primarily invested in her cultivation.
It came as a big surprise to Emperor Xue Ye, who knew his daughter cared more for material things than cultivation.
When he questioned her about it, she asked him, "Daddy, you said I was talented, right?"
Xue Ye at the time hurriedly nodded his head, "Of course, you have always been a talented girl, as talented as your brothers."
Xue Ke nodded her head, accepting Emperor Xue Ye's words.
"Then, bring me things that can help me cultivate. I will put more effort into my cultivation."
After saying that, she went to her room and cultivated for a couple of days straight.
She only stopped cultivating to eat and shower once in a while.
Usually, Xue Ke would have a schedule that she must follow, learning various subjects from royal tutors.
However, Emperor Xue Ye deduced Xue Ke's change in attitude was due to one of the males in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.
She probably felt that she must cultivate and become powerful to match with Wulin or Ning Yuzi.
Because Emperor Xue Ye believed it was a good sign, he didn't force her out of her room.
He let her cultivate as much as she wanted, and let the royal tutors have a vacation.
.
Xue Qinghe nodded his head in acknowledgement, "Little Ke has become determined to cultivate. It is a good thing."
Emperor Xue Ye sighed, "It is good if it can help her marry Chen Wulin or Ning Yuzi."
"However, if she can't, then she can only be used as a bargaining chip to increase the status of the family."
Xue Qinghe was silent.
Inwardly, as Qian Renxue, she felt disgusted that a girl like Xue Ke was nothing more than a tool for others.
However, she knew better than to show her emotions after assuming Xue Qinghe's life since she was a child.
"I don't believe giving Little Ke to anyone other than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan is productive," Xue Qinghe said.
"I am confident in my ability to manage the Heaven Dou Empire. There will be no need for other noble families to cause trouble."
"Yes... Perhaps you are right." Emperor Xue Ye thought about it for a moment and agreed.
Suddenly, Xue Qinghe spoke, "Father, I have been planning to go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan soon."
"I was initially going to visit Teacher, but I can also find out how Little Ke is progressing."
"That would be great!" said Emperor Xue Ye, his face lit up, and he looked vitalised.
At this time, in Xue Ke's room.
A tiny blonde-haired figure sat cross-legged on a praying mat with their eyes closed.
"... I have to try harder! I don't want to lose my friends..." She softly whispered to herself, gathering her determination.
***
Early in the morning.
A man and a woman were laying in bed together.
The man held the woman in a protective embrace, holding her lithe body like she would disappear if he used too much power.
The woman rested her delicate head on the man's arm, nuzzling into his body.
Her long red hair concealed her refined face, and it splayed across the man's chest.
Her hot and sexy body stuck to the man's broad chest, her large and perky breasts deforming by pressing against him.
She also wrapped her legs around his tightly, making it impossible for the man to free himself.
The man was the first one to wake up.
He opened his eyes slowly to find this beautiful woman in his arms.
However, his eyes showed a complexity of emotions when gazing at her.
'...This, am I worthy of being able to be here? Am I able to continue to hold her in my arms...?'
Detrimental thoughts plagued the mind of the man. However, through the mess of emotions, a small light shined through the mud.
Love.
'I am sorry. I have caused you so much suffering, even though I love you this much.'
The man used his fingers to brush her hair out of her eyes gently.
It was a pure expression of his love for her, and every time he saw her face, his heart felt choked with emotions.
The red waterfall of shiny hair moved to the back of the woman's head, revealing her youthful yet mature face.
Love, pain, and regret. These emotions were the most prevalent when he looked at her.
His eyes displayed a deeply rooted regret, he regretted his choices in life, and he hated himself for it.
He cupped the face of the woman with his hand, 'Erlong, I will never leave you again... From now on, I will be the one to protect you.'
Yu Xiao Gang was determined to overcome the shadow of his past and spend the rest of his life, protecting and repenting for Liu Erlong.
Feeling Yu Xiao Gang touching her face, Liu Erlong fluttered her eyelashes before opening them.
The first thing she saw was Yu Xiao Gang staring at her, and his bright golden eyes were flickering with emotions.
Liu Erlong grasped the hand that was cupping her face and used it to stroke her cheek gently.
There was no need for words between the two of them. The depths of Liu Erlongs emotions conveyed perfectly through her tender actions.
Yu Xiao Gang stopped stroking her face and leaned his head forward, slowly.
Liu Erlong and Yu Xiao Gang were able to feel how rapid their heartbeats were because they were so close together.
Liu Erlong's face couldn't help but turn red with embarrassment, but she didn't hesitate to accept Yu Xiao Gang's advance.
She had waited long enough to be in this kind of relationship with Yu Xiao Gang again. She wouldn't hesitate anymore.
Yu Xiao Gang gently connected with Liu Erlong's plump and juicy red lips.
A jolt of electricity shot through his body, causing him to shiver slightly.
It was a familiar feeling that happened every time he shared a kiss with Liu Erlong.
The euphoric feeling of her heavenly lips, and the curiously exploratory tongue that cautiously slithered its way into his mouth.
It was like Liu Erlong was testing the limits, licking his lips, touching his teeth, and gently pressing against the gap to see if she could break-in.
Yu Xiao Gang couldn't stay passive forever. He was no longer a trash Spirit Master that people could ridicule.
He was a mighty Rank 73 Spirit Saint. His cultivation speed was heaven-defying, and his combat power was incredible.
Liu Erlong, who was leaning on Yu Xiao Gang and getting close to mounting him, was shocked when Yu Xiao Gang suddenly overpowered her.
He hugged her waist and rolled over, pinning Liu Erlong lithe figure under his hulking body.
Liu Erlong let out a small squeak out of shock, but Yu Xiao Gang covered her mouth quickly.
He didn't give her a chance to breathe as he passionately invaded her mouth with his tongue.
Liu Erlong's face became flushed, and she struggled to breathe, but Yu Xiao Gang was relentless in his desire.
He hugged her body with such force that only her head and feet were on the bed.
Yu Xiao Gang was between her leg and holding her waist and hands tightly.
He couldn't help but drown himself in her lips for a couple of moments before he realised his erotic position.
Yu Xiao Gang quickly broke away from Liu Erlong's lips and let her body go, causing her to fall and bounce on the bed.
Liu Erlong looked incredibly seductive with her flushed face and sensual panting sounds.
Her watery eyes were staring at Yu Xiao Gang suggestively, causing a rise in Yu Xiao Gang's primal feelings.
Yu Xiao Gang barely controlled himself and spoke with a hoarse voice, "...Erlong."
However, Liu Erlong stopped him before he could continue. She pulled his hand and put a finger on his lips.
"Xiao Gang, don't say anything else. I believe in you, and I will love and follow you forever, no matter what happens."
"Even if one day you love another woman..."
"No! That will never happen! I love Erlong and Erlong alone, and there will never be another woman in my life."
Yu Xiao Gang bellowed in a firm voice.
Liu Erlong was the only woman he had ever loved, so Yu Xiao Gang was sure that he would never love another person again.
Liu Erlong was happy to hear Yu Xiao Gang's passionate words.
"Xiao Gang... I want you to show it to me. Show me how much you love me...!"
She opened her arms in an embracing manner, showing off her mature body that was full of perfect curves.
Her full breasts defied the natural laws and remained perky, but there was a small bump poking through her pajamas.
Now that Yu Xiao Gang resolved to be together with Liu Erlong, his willpower to not touch her has weakened every day.
The mesmerising sight of Liu Erlong's voluptuous body and her sexy look caused Yu Xiao Gang to lose control.
He leapt on top of Liu Erlong and let his instincts take control.
