Capítulo 16: My genius frightens even me
"It's delicious!" Yuechan exclaimed, eating a slice of pizza. "You said this cheese is made from what? Spiritual jade milk?" she asked.
"That's right, I 'borrowed' a few liters from a large sect and made cheese from it," Wuji nodded. The Spirit Jade Milk is produced by spiritual white jade; one piece of this jade produces a droplet of milk every three days.
The great powers used it on their young descendants to enhance their constitution and talent.
Yun Wuji found a large quantity in the treasury of the Unity Sword Sect.
They were truly 'united'—and they died 'united' with each other as well.
Hehehe~
Not just the cheese—all the ingredients in this pizza are special. Even the dough was made from unique grains.
Otherwise, his skills alone wouldn't be enough to make Little Fairy so addicted to his food.
This type of food will naturally have some effect on the practitioners' cultivation. However, Yun Wuji and Chu Yuechan's cultivation is very high, so the effect is negligible.
"This Spiritual Jade Milk should be rare, right? What are we going to do if we run out of cheese for our pizza?" she asked, taking another slice.
"We can always take some from the large sects," Yun Wuji replied casually, eating his pizza as well.
"Isn't this considered stealing?" she asked.
"No, it's called a protection fee," he corrected her with a righteous tone.
"Protection fee? Protecting them from whom?"
"We are protecting them from us, of course," he said shamelessly.
"..." She wanted to call out his shamelessness, but then she thought about how without the Spiritual Jade Milk, she wouldn't be able to eat such delicious pizza. So, she silently ate another slice.
At night, Yun Wiji sat cross-legged meditating, his focus his attention on his soul. Deep inside his soul was a blazing phoenix.
The Phoenix Soul shimmered with ethereal hues of red and gold, resembling a miniature phoenix with wings poised as if ready to soar, emanating a fiery yet warm radiance.
It was the Phoenix Soul that the Phoenix Spirit had given him. This gift not only granted him the Phoenix Soul but also the incomplete Phoenix Nirvana.
After observing the Phoenix Soul for a while, he shifted his attention to his profound veins.
Last time, he had failed to link his fifth entrance. This time, after receiving the Phoenix inheritance, he wanted to make another attempt and see if he could succeed.
The glowing silver light at the base of his veins branched out toward his first entrance. Upon reaching it, the light illuminated the entrance before branching out again from the base and moving toward the second entrance.
When the light reached the second entrance, Yun Wuji didn't feel as much pressure as he had in previous attempts; it flowed much smoother this time.
Third entrance.
Fourth entrance.
When the fourth entrance was lit up, he frowned as he felt the pressure intensifying.
Finally, fifth entrance!
As he reached this step, his profound veins trembled wildly. However, Yun Wuji didn't stop; the light branched out and moved towards the sixth entrance.
The trembling became more severe, and he felt like his veins might explode, but he pressed on regardless.
Bang.
As he touched the seventh entrance, his veins couldn't hold on, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His veins were severely injured.
However, despite this failure, he didn't feel disheartened. He remained pleased with the progress, seeing it as proof that completing this technique in the future was indeed possible!
In the past, he had been stuck at the fifth entrance, but now he had managed to reach all the way to the seventh.
Yun Wuji wiped the blood from his mouth and glanced at Chu Yuechan, who was meditating in front of him. A white light shone upon him, and his injuries began to recover.
A few minutes later, his injuries were completely healed, and a change occurred in his profound veins.
Bang!
Fifth level of the Sky Profound Realm achieved!
It had been more than three weeks since he left the Crescent Wilderness with Yuechan. With the help of his Ethereal Qi Sanctuary—the name of the white barrier that protected him and helped him cultivate passively—he automatically broke through.
At his current rate of cultivation, he would reach rank 10 in four or five months without using any additional external means.
The hard part for him is to break through the additional three small realms.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough," he heard Chu Yuechan say with a smile as he opened his eyes. She continued, "Should we celebrate this occasion?"
"No need, maybe next time," Yun Wuji rolled his eyes. He knew she was looking for an excuse to feast; she had become quite the glutton. He found it hard to connect her to her former self.
"I've noticed you've been trying to improve your Frozen Cloud Arts these past few days," he remarked, recalling something.
"Yes, but I couldn't make any progress," she sighed, feeling disheartened. Ever since she learned about the side effects of the Frozen Cloud Arts, she had been striving to improve it and eliminate those effects. However, despite her efforts, she didn't make one a bit of progress.
Previous generations of the Palace Mistresses of the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace had all attempted to remove the side effects without success, it is only natural for her to fail as well.
"Would you mind showing me your arts? Maybe I can help," he suggested. With his talent for comprehension, he could easily make several improvements to it.
The Frozen Cloud Art was something Mu Bingyun created within seven days, with little effort or thought put into it. It was expected that such an art would have obviouse flaws and was not worth mentioning compared to divine legacies like the Ice Phoenix God Investiture Canon or Miracle of Life.
"Really? You already helped me open all my profound entrances previously. How could I trouble you again?" She looked at him with bright eyes, genuinely grateful to Yun Wuji. He had not only saved her life but also helped her in many ways during their travels over the past few weeks.
It's worth mentioning that he had already opened all her profound entrances. Her reaction at that time was priceless.
"Heh~ then how about replying by dedicating yourself to me?" He moved closer to her until they were only a few inches away. In a good mood, he decided to tease her.
"What-what?" Feeling his breath close to her, she became flustered. Although she had feelings for him, this was too sudden!
They should at least marry and have a celebration where she can enjoy all the delicious food!
"Alright, show me your technique, I'll help you," he said, seeing her flustered state. He took a step back to create some space between them. Who knows what expression he would be making right now if he knew what she was thinking.
"Hmm~" She nodded, then told him the content of the technique. Sect cultivation techniques were closely guarded and only passed down to sect disciples, a common sense even Chu Yuechan, who had lost her memories, knew. This showed how much trust she had in Yun Wuji.
When she finished telling him the content, Wuji's expression turned dark. The Frozen Cloud Art was truly trash tier in his estimation, plagued by numerous side effects and offering little in terms of benefits. It wasn't worth anyone's effort to cultivate an art so inferior that it made reaching the Tyrant Profound Realm without external aid nearly impossible. The only redeeming quality seemed to be its beautifying effect.
In the novel, without the Overlord Palette, none in Frozen Cloud Asgard would have surpassed the Emperor Profound Realm.
He closed his eyes and began thinking about how to modify and improve it. This might have been difficult for others, but for him, it was too easy.
First, he removed the unnecessary parts, and then he corrected some flaws.
Half an hour later, he opened his eyes.
"What do you think? Is it possible?" Chu Yuechan asked eagerly, assuming he had been examining the Frozen Cloud Art.
"Yes, I've already made some improvements. You can try it first," Yun Wuji nodded.
Although he still didn't feel satisfied with the result, it was already many times better than the original version.
"What?! You improved the art in such a short time?!" Yuechan exclaimed loudly, shocked and doubting her ears.
"You don't have to be so shocked," he said, standing up and patting her shoulder. "Sometimes my genius frightens even me."
"..."
Capítulo 17: A wild young master appeared!
Chu Yuechan closed her eyes, and after a few moments, ice began to emerge beneath her feet, freezing the ground. The ice spread rapidly, and in no time, it covered a radius of several kilometers, freezing everything in its path—earth, trees, and even beasts.
Swoosh!
A gust of wind swept through, and the frozen trees and beasts shattered into icy dust.
Right after, the dust gathered into multiple icy shards the size of one meter.
Boom!
Rumble!
The shards launched at the nearby mountain, creating thunderous explosions. Dust and debris flew everywhere, shrouding the mountain in clouds of dust.
When the dust settled, a huge chunk of the mountain was gone!
She pointed at the mountain, and everything in that direction started to freeze, forming a straight path. When the ice reached the mountain, it transformed into an icy peak. The most terrifying part was, the whole process took less than half a minute.
"You actually did it!" she exclaimed, her eyes wide with excitement. After trying the new Frozen Cloud Arts, she found it was five times stronger and had no negative effects. Overjoyed she forgot herself and ran to him and hugged him tightly.
"It's good that you like it," Yun Wuji smiled, seeing her happy expression.
"You've helped so much, I really don't know how to repay you," she said, looking at him. Without her veil, her features were absolutely exquisite: clear eyes, slender eyebrows, and pearly skin.
Gazing at her up close, he became dazed. Chu Yuechan was already a kingdom-toppling beauty, and since he hadn't yet seen Qianye Ying'er or Jasmin, to him right now she was the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on.
"Don't worry, I know how you can repay me." He lifted her chin and kissed her without giving her time to react.
Chu Yuechan's eyes widened briefly, then she closed them and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly.
After a while, their lips parted, and Yun Wuji looked at her with a faint smile. He was happy she hadn't resisted; it meant she also had feelings for him.
Chu Yuechan's face was red as fire, panicked and shy. "You...you...why are you doing this...?"
"Hmm, you don't like it?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I didn't mean that, it's just too sudden," she said, lowering her head and burying her face in his chest. She was too embarrassed to look at him.
Since losing her memories, Yun Wuji was the only person by her side. His company provided her with a sense of warmth and safety in a world where everyone and everything was strange to her. It was only natural for her to feel attached to him.
She didn't have the courage to change their relationship, and she also liked how things were between them right now.
Yun Wuji also understood her current mental state and decided to make the first move. He was a man and should be the one taking the initiative.
He also feared that she might regain her memories and distance herself.
"Good," He then kissed her once again.
-----
In a quiet, remote street of New Moon City, the very air seemed to tremble as Yun Wuji and Little Fairy suddenly appeared.
"We've run out of spices. There's a branch of the Black Moon Merchant Guild here; maybe we can find something good," Yuechan pestered Yun Wuji, eager for him to cook something delicious. She had eaten so much that they had exhausted all the unique spices he usually kept stocked. They had come to the nearest city to replenish their supplies.
However, Yun Wuji's spices were not typical; they were special and not easily found. Fortunately, the Black Moon Merchant Guild branch here was conveniently close to the Scarlet Dragon Mountain Range. With a quick teleportation, they had arrived at the city.
"Black Moon Merchant Guild? That name sounds familiar..." When she heard it, she placed her hand on her chin and pondered for a moment, sensing a hint of familiarity.
"The Black Moon Merchant Guild is the largest merchant guild chain in the Profound Sky Continent. They have an excellent reputation, and it's said you can buy anything that can be brought with money," Yun Wuji explained. "You probably heard about them before you lost your memories."
"Is that so," Yuechan nodded. However, she quickly pushed aside her thoughts and urged him, "Hurry up, I want to eat burgers!"
"..."
Yuechan didn't like being the center of attention, so when they arrived in the city, they teleported to a remote place a bit farther from the Merchant Guild.
"Look at that woman, she's so beautiful!"
"Even with the veil, I can tell she's a beautiful woman."
"That man is also quite handsome."
"What's that glowing thing around him? Trying to look cool?"
"A handsome bastard trying to show off!"
Wuji and Yuechan's looks are both very outstanding. Despite her veil, Yuechan radiated an undeniable allure that effortlessly caught the eye of everyone around them.
As they strolled through the city, many couldn't resist stopping to steal glances at them.
Soon, they came upon a building. Its gate bore a logo of a black waning moon.
"Welcome, customer. I'm Jun Wu. Are you here to sell or buy?" As they entered the guild, the middle-aged man with a goatee greeted them promptly. His sharp eyes quickly discerned that both of them were important figures.
"I want to buy water spirit crystals, leaves from the Black Death Tree..." Yun Wuji listed several other ingredients to him.
"Esteemed customer, we have all of them except for the water spirit crystal," Jun Wu said, rubbing his hands. The items Yun Wuji requested were rare and expensive, prompting him to show even more respect.
"Alright, give me whatever stock you have of them," Wuji nodded. He was wealthy enough not to bother asking about the price and ordered all the available stock directly.
The Merchant Guild lived up to its reputation. This was only a branch, yet it had nearly everything he wanted. For a moment, he was tempted to raid their main branch.
"Right away, sir!" Jun Wu immediately instructed the servants to prepare the order.
"Please come back again, dear customers!" After paying, he collected the ingredients and left with Chu Yuechan. Jun Wu personally saw them off.
"Stop right there!"
Just as they were about to teleport back to the Scarlet Dragon Mountain Range, someone suddenly stopped them.
"Beauty, my young master is interested in you come with us!" The one who stopped them was a muscular man. He arrogantly ignored Yun Wuji and demanded that Chu Yuechan follow him to a luxurious carriage where his master awaited.
"..." Yuechan.
"What..." Seeing that she didn't move, the man was about to use force when suddenly ice began to spread from his legs all the way to his head. In a split second, he became an ice statue.
Yuechan didn't spare him a glance. She held Wuji's hand and walked past him.
The statue shattered into tiny pieces. Until his death, he never knew just how terrifying the person he provoked was.
"Stop right there! Ignorant fools, you dare to kill my servant!" The man inside the carriage leaped out, furious. No one in New Moon City dared to defy him, and yet these two had the audacity to oppose him!
"Oh, interesting~" Yun Wuji, who had been silent this whole time, looked at the man with interest. Although he had lived in this world for a long time, this was the first time he had encountered a 'Young Master'.
"Ignorant fool! Don't you know who I am?! Kneel and lick my shoes, and perhaps I'll spare your life!" the young master shouted, pointing at Wuji. The moment he saw him, a surge of killing intent rose in his heart. What he hated most were people who were more handsome than him!
He wanted to humiliate him in front of his woman before killing him!
"Who may you be?" Yun Wuji asked with a harmless smile, similar to the one he wore when he massacred the members of The Sword Unity Sect.
"Listen, young master is the son of the elder of the Xiao Sect!" a servant interjected proudly, adept at timing his words to enhance his master's prestige.
"An insect from a branch of a tiny sect. I truly don't know who gave you the courage to jump in front of me," Yun Wuji shook his head in disdain. It was a wonder how these tiny sects could last so long with their descendants provoking random people so recklessly.
"You! You are courting death!" The young master, who had been expecting to see their terrified faces, became furious instead.
'I know he would say that!'
