He went back to his room to rest. Indeed, his quality of sleep had improved significantly, and he slept soundly through the night.
So much so that when Zhu Yingning sneakily slipped into his room in the middle of the night, making a racket, he was completely unaware.
CRACK! CRACK!
The bedfra sounded like it was about to collapse!
Never mind that Shen Youling was now a Cultivator in the early stages of Qi Refinent—even an ordinary person could hear it loud and clear.
"Hey, you two! I put up with you bothering my dad and sister during the day. But now, in the middle of the night, an unmarried man and woman rolling around on the sa bed... Are you just going to pretend I'm not here?" she could not bear it any longer and rushed over to protest in a low voice.
When she saw that both Zhu Yingning and Lin Tang were still fully clothed, her expression softened slightly. "What exactly are you two doing?"
Zhu Yingning's face was a mask of agony and ecstasy, and she was drenched in sweat. Gritting her teeth, she panted, "What else could we be doing? Yijing Cleansing, of course, to improve my strength!"
Ever since Lin Tang had been "imprisoned," she hadn't enjoyed this kind of treatnt. She wasn't like Wei Zichu, who consistently received private lessons from Lin Tang. Without his help, she was stuck at a plateau no matter how hard she trained. It was maddening. Now that Lin Tang was free again, she couldn't hold back. After begging and pleading—and first showering Lin Tang with plenty of favors to get him comfortable—she finally convinced him to help her with another power-leveling session.
Who knew Lin Tang would be so intense today? His power output was several tis greater than before. The rapid boost nearly made her explode!
Lin Tang knew Shen Youling had started cultivating but pretended to be clueless. While continuing to work on Zhu Yingning, he tried to persuade Shen Youling, "Youling, you know the Underworld is about to invade. Countless masters will appear, slaughtering people left and right. If a group of them manages to pin down, I might not be able to protect you twenty-four-seven. So, you should learn martial arts, too. I'll help you with Yijing Cleansing, and I guarantee it'll be incredibly effective!"
"Ah... AHHHHH..." Zhu Yingning scread pitifully, her eyes rolling back as sweat stread down her body and her muscles convulsed. She looked as if she were having a seizure or being electrocuted.
Shen Youling's mouth twitched. She was incredibly relieved that she had already obtained a Cultivation Technique. If she hadn't, she might have actually agreed to Lin Tang's offer. Practicing martial arts, struggling, and screaming in agony just like Zhu Yingning... The thought was terrifying.
Shen Youling cleared her throat, feeling a mix of sympathy for Zhu Yingning and a flicker of schadenfreude.
I'd better just cultivate quietly and grow stronger in secret. I'll leave the martial arts to you two... Oh, Lin Tang, don't bla for being selfish. You can't truly know what is in another's heart. Until I have the power to protect myself, I have to keep this a secret, even from you...
She politely declined Lin Tang's offer and returned to her own room, thoughtfully closing the door for Lin Tang and Zhu Yingning on her way out.
Sitting cross-legged on her bed, she listened for a little while longer to Zhu Yingning's lewd yet agonized cries.
Based on Lin Tang's constitution, he could probably cultivate, too. But my Yin Yang Reincarnation Technique is only suitable for , not for him. Even if I risked sharing it with him, he wouldn't be able to practice it. And I don't have any other Cultivation Techniques... They're incredibly precious. Finding another one suitable for him is impossibly difficult, and the chances are slim. So, if I can never find a new Cultivation Technique for him... I'll eventually beco stronger and stronger, maybe even a true immortal... while Lin Tang will remain a re Martial Artist among mortals, struggling in the secular world... What should I do...
As Shen Youling fretted and sighed, her ears perked up. She seed to hear strange smacking sounds.
Like... kissing?!
Is this really part of Yijing Cleansing? Hmm, I must have misheard. Never mind! Ti is precious and not ant for eavesdropping on others' training. I have to seize every mont to cultivate!
Shen Youling blocked out all external noise, cleared her mind of distractions, and sank into a ditative state, beginning to circulate her energy.
While she was completely imrsed in her cultivation, in the next room, Zhu Yingning was half-kneeling, half-sitting in Lin Tang's lap. Perhaps because her clothes had beco too soaked with sweat and were hindering the process, she had already stripped them off and tossed them aside.
Gritting her teeth and looking ready to breathe fire, she vented her frustration by launching a retaliatory assault on Lin Tang's ear, neck, and chin. "I bet you weren't even serious about helping with my Yijing Cleansing! I'll bite you to death! I'll bite you to death!"
As for Lin Tang, it was as if he had suffered a sudden Qi deviation. His limbs were stiff and he couldn't move. His eyes looked ready to pop from their sockets as he watched Zhu Yingning tornt and punish him. "Zhu Yingning, you ungrateful, heartless succubus! I'm kindly helping you train, and this is how you treat ? Is this how you repay my constant efforts? Is this how you treat your good friend, Shen Youling? Hiss... You... I..."
