Chapter 145:
“You haven’t left the sect, Junior Brother, so you haven’t felt it. But those rogue cultivators have had it rough. The better ones are pursued with gifts, while those without a background are forcefully taken.”
“And even those with deep backgrounds, because they’ve attracted too much attention, have an endless stream of pursuers. They’re so bothered every day that they don’t even dare to go out. Their lives have been seriously affected.”
Su Yan had guessed this would happen. Those on the list would definitely have trouble. Now, hearing it, it was indeed the case.
“And then?”
Su Yan asked. He was very curious about the subsequent development of the incident.
“What else could happen? Of course, they went to find them.”
Ling Ling said, “It’s because of the Heavenly Profound Pavilion’s list that they’re in such a mess. Many of those on the list have united to find trouble with the Heavenly Profound Pavilion.”
“I heard that the Dao companion of a Spirit Transformation expert was also affected. Her husband was being coveted by outsiders, which made her so angry that she personally came forward.”
“A Spirit Transformation expert? Then the Heavenly Profound Pavilion is definitely finished!”
Su Yan said in surprise.
He was no longer a cultivation novice. A Spirit Transformation expert was a top-tier power in the cultivation world. The Heavenly Profound Pavilion, this emerging force, would definitely be beaten up hard.
“You’re wrong about that.”
Ling Ling shook her head and said, “Many people thought so at first. They thought that since they had angered a Spirit Transformation cultivator, the Heavenly Profound Pavilion was definitely finished. But the result was unexpected.”
Under the leadership of the Spirit Transformation cultivator, many branches of the Heavenly Profound Pavilion were smashed. Just when everyone thought the Heavenly Profound Pavilion was finished, an accident occurred.
“A mysterious expert made a move and had a great battle with the Spirit Transformation expert. Although no one got close to watch because the aftershocks were too strong, you can guess the result of the battle from the way the Spirit Transformation cultivator went back in dejection.”
When he heard this, Su Yan was shocked. The power of a Spirit Transformation expert was unfathomable. They were truly a human-shaped natural disaster. But now, to be defeated by someone else was simply incredible.
“Tell me about it.”
Ling Ling sighed.
Although she had long known that the Heavenly Profound Pavilion’s actions would not be simple, she had not expected them to be so powerful.
One had to know that the Spirit Transformation stage was already the eighth realm of cultivation, not far from becoming an immortal. The cultivators who had reached this realm were all in seclusion, cultivating hard, hoping to become an immortal one day. There were not many who were still active in the cultivation world.
“I didn’t expect these things to happen recently.”
Xiao Wu sighed with emotion. There were too many experts in the cultivation world. If she wanted to protect her junior brother, she had to become even stronger.
…
Time passed slowly. Xiao Wu was cultivating hard, and Su Yan was also improving himself.
But unlike the traditional cultivation methods, Su Yan’s so-called cultivation was to complete the system’s missions.
“Why do you keep making me flirt with my senior sister!”
Su Yan said loudly, his resentment towards the system about to break through the heavens.
[You can choose not to do it.]
The system said coldly.
“You!”
If he could, Su Yan would just give up. But thinking of the consequences of giving up, he ultimately chose to swallow his anger.
And so, Su Yan did the system’s missions every day, and Xiao Wu was teased every day. After being teased for a long time, Xiao Wu couldn’t help but let her imagination run wild.
“I’m already so familiar with my junior brother. We’ve done so many things. Shouldn’t we confirm our relationship?”
Although Xiao Wu had no experience in this area, she also knew that her relationship with Su Yan had long since surpassed that of ordinary friends, so she wanted to take it a step further.
And so, one day, after Su Yan had finished doing the system’s missions, Xiao Wu grabbed his hand.
“Don’t go.”
Su Yan turned his head and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Xiao Wu took a deep breath and said, “We’ve known each other for so long. You should know by now, right? I like you. I want to be with you. What do you think?”
Although they had already done things that surpassed friendship, asking this question still made Xiao Wu feel very nervous.
Through their interactions over these past few days, she was ninety percent sure that Su Yan also liked her. If he didn’t like her, how could he be so intimate with her?
But this kind of thing was not a sure thing after all. Xiao Wu was still worried that an accident would happen.
However, she had overthought it. After his initial surprise, Su Yan just thought for a moment and then nodded.
“Mm, I like you too.”
He had already asked himself many times in his heart and was not surprised by this kind of thing. Under the arrangement of the system’s missions, he had been lewd with his senior sister too many times. Who else could he choose?
Su Yan was not the kind of person who was fickle. After refusing to flirt with his Third Senior Sister several times, he had already seen his own heart clearly.
“You agreed?!”
Xiao Wu was so shocked she didn’t know what to say.
Su Yan nodded, confirming it again.
Xiao Wu hugged him in pleasant surprise and muttered, “Great, great! You’re mine now.”
“What do you mean, I’m yours? It’s clearly you who’s mine!”
Su Yan complained in his heart, a smile appearing on his lips.
Without any twists and turns, their relationship was naturally confirmed.
Su Yan felt this was very good. He didn’t want to be like the protagonist in a novel, who had to go through life and death, and a bunch of melodramatic plots, before finally being able to be with the one he loved.
Yes, the one he loved…
Thinking of how Xiao Wu had protected him many times and had taken care of him for so long, plus the feeling he had when he was with her, Su Yan felt that he liked her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have nodded so easily.
“You agreed! You really agreed! Am I dreaming?!”
Xiao Wu said excitedly, her chest heaving violently.
“What do you think?”
Su Yan wrapped his arms around her waist. This time, there was no system mission. He had just done it naturally.
Since she had confessed to him, this kind of thing had become reasonable.
“This is real!”
Xiao Wu hugged him back. Because their relationship was confirmed, both of them were very happy.
However, Su Yan was a little worried at this moment. The system seemed to enjoy making fun of him, which was why it had generated those shameful missions. Now that he had confirmed his relationship with Senior Sister Xiao Wu, what about the missions? Would they still be triggered in the future?
The worry only lasted for a moment and then disappeared, because the system appeared again and triggered a new mission.
[Detected that the host has a lover. A new series of missions has been opened. The difficulty and rewards have been doubled.]
When he heard this, Su Yan’s expression changed. Difficulty and rewards doubled? It was already so shameful before. What else does it want to do?
After the prompt, the system’s mission appeared before his eyes.
[Option 1: Since we are already lovers, let’s do something that lovers should do. Let’s have sex. (Mission reward: One high-grade spiritual weapon)]
[Option 2: Since we are lovers, it’s normal to take a bath together, right? (Mission reward: One mid-grade spiritual weapon)]
