19: Yao Xi: You lecher, you'll have to take responsibility!

Yao Xi did not expect Ye Wen to be serious right from the start.

She wanted to break free, but was suppressed by a powerful force.

Naturally, the System would not let Yao Xi run away. Since Ye Wen took the initiative, it was too happy to stop him, so how could it let Yao Xi escape?

It quickly took action to suppress her.

...

Yaoguang Holy Land.

"Tell me, can Yao Xi successfully seduce that kid back?" The Yaoguang Holy Master looked toward the other Elders.

A stern-faced middle-aged man spoke up: "Unless he is indifferent to women, how could he possibly resist the charm of Yao Xi? Besides, Yao Xi is the number one beauty in the Southern Region. If she claims to be second, who would dare claim to be first?" [Yan Ruyu: I have no objections.]

"Indifferent to women? How is that possible? If he were indifferent to women, where would his children come from, and how could his cultivation progress so quickly? He must be like the Yin-Yang Physique mentioned in the records, all of them extremely lustful." Another old man spoke up.

"That kid named Ye Wen must be fine. Now it just depends on Yao Xi and how she chooses. This Physique cannot fall into the hands of other Holy Lands; otherwise, relying on this Physique, their Saintess would surely make rapid progress."

"Therefore, he can only become a person of our Yaoguang Holy Land. Yao Xi is very suitable to be the one to keep him." Another old woman also spoke.

The Holy Master listened to their words and couldn't help but ponder: "But no matter what, Yao Xi is the Saintess of our Holy Land. If she is unwilling..."

"My granddaughter can do it!"

"One of my Disciples can also do it!"

"My daughter is as beautiful as a flower. Although her strength is a bit lacking, she can fill in!"

A group of people below raised their hands one after another, recommending their own Disciples, daughters, or granddaughters.

After all, that was a Yin-Yang Physique. Being able to engage in Dual Cultivation with him meant their cultivation speed would feel like it was flying.

In historical records, it was once recorded that a female cultivator at the Divine Bridge Realm, after engaging in Dual Cultivation with a Yin-Yang Physique, advanced to the Four Extremities Realm ten years later, ascended to a Great Power in a hundred years, became a Dao Severing King in two hundred years, and reached the level of a Saint in five hundred years.

That was just a female cultivator at the Divine Bridge of the Wheel Sea Realm. Their daughters, granddaughters, and Disciples were at least at the Dao Palace Realm.

A Saint in five hundred years—that was practically a free gift.

If Yao Xi was unwilling, they were certainly willing to send women over.

"Stop, stop, stop. Let's wait until Yao Xi returns to discuss this matter. If Yao Xi wants to go further, she must latch onto that youth named Ye Wen. However..." The Holy Master looked at the Elders below and said again: "If Yao Xi is unwilling, then we will choose one from the women you recommended."

"According to the records, only three people can become Dao Companions for Dual Cultivation. That youth Ye Wen already has one in the Lingxu Grotto-Heaven, leaving two spots remaining. We will use one first and save one for the future to trade with other Holy Lands."

The Holy Master's words brought joy to the faces of many Elders.

One by one, they nodded in agreement.

...

Lingxu Grotto-Heaven.

The next morning, just as Yao Xi was about to escape from the entrance, a pair of hands wrapped around her slender waist from behind, and then she was carried back.

"Where is my wife going? Don't leave." Ye Wen carried Yao Xi back into the room.

After Dual Cultivation with Yao Xi, he discovered that his Realm began to loosen. What a top-tier cauldron.

How could Ye Wen let his wife, Yao Xi, leave?

Yao Xi glared angrily at this scoundrel, Ye Wen.

"Wife, don't look at me like that. You should carefully feel your own strength. I am helping you; you cannot burn the bridge after crossing it." Ye Wen brought Yao Xi back to the room.

Amidst Yao Xi's intense reluctance, they continued their Dual Cultivation.

As for why it was only half-unwilling, it was naturally because she had witnessed the huge benefits brought by Dual Cultivation with Ye Wen, plus the Holy Master intended to marry her to Ye Wen.

So, it was half-reluctant and half-willing.

After Dual Cultivation with Ye Wen, Yao Xi naturally felt the changes in her body. Her Realm was progressing rapidly; it wouldn't be impossible to break through her current Realm in a few more days.

At this moment, she had already reached the Perfection of the Dao Palace, only holding back to accumulate a foundation to deal with the Breakthrough to the Four Extremities; otherwise, she would have already broken through to the Four Extremities Realm.

But now, after Dual Cultivation with Ye Wen, she felt that her Realm could no longer be suppressed. This showed that all the accumulation of foundation couldn't compare to a one-night stand with Ye Wen.

This left Yao Xi somewhat dumbfounded, but it also confirmed to her that the scoundrel Ye Wen was indeed the Yin-Yang Physique mentioned in the historical records.

This was also the reason why she would scold Ye Wen as a lothario while still engaging in Dual Cultivation with him.

A week later.

Lingxu Grotto-Heaven.

Above the firmament, dark clouds began to gather, and thunder and lightning started to converge.

Someone was about to undergo their Heavenly Tribulation.

Moreover, it was the incomparably powerful Four Extremities Realm Heavenly Tribulation.

The entire Yan State felt the aura of this intense Heavenly Tribulation.

And the protagonist undergoing the tribulation was Yao Xi.

After engaging in Dual Cultivation with the lothario Ye Wen for a week, she could no longer suppress her Realm and now had to advance to the Four Extremities Realm.

Furthermore, because she had engaged in Dual Cultivation with Ye Wen for a week, she was stained with Ye Wen's aura, which significantly increased the intensity of the Heavenly Tribulation.

Looking at the violent Heavenly Tribulation above her head, Yao Xi couldn't help but gasp.

"Moon Palace." Yao Xi took out her treasure and began to prepare for the tribulation. At the same time, she put on her Saintess battle armor and added a jade bell to her hand.

It could be said that Yao Xi had brought out all her hidden assets.

Below, Ye Wen held Changsheng and Weiwei, watching Yao Xi on the firmament.

"Can she successfully pass the tribulation? This Heavenly Tribulation is so terrifying. Will my future tribulation be this terrifying too?" Weiwei looked at the Heavenly Tribulation on the firmament with some trepidation.

It directly covered the entire Lingxu Grotto-Heaven, and one-tenth of the entire Yan State was within the Heavenly Tribulation.

"It should... probably be okay. But don't worry, I will have everything prepared for you when the time comes." Holding Changsheng, Ye Wen reached out and touched Weiwei's cheek to reassure her.

Then he looked at Yao Xi, who had begun her tribulation on the firmament.

The Heavenly Tribulation was extremely violent.

The Sect Head of Lingxu Grotto-Heaven had already let everyone hide in their Immortal Caves and then activated the mountain-protecting formation.

They stared in astonishment at Saintess Yao Xi on the firmament.

After Yao Xi prepared everything, the Heavenly Tribulation began.

The incomparably violent Lightning Tribulation began to fall, striking Yao Xi's Moon Palace. Just one strike caused the Moon Palace to crack.

This shocked Yao Xi, who hurriedly increased the Divine Power gathering in the Moon Palace to resist the Heavenly Tribulation.

The Heavenly Tribulation lasted for three hours.

It finally ended with all of Yao Xi's treasures shattered and her body severely injured.

Seeing that the Heavenly Tribulation was over, Ye Wen handed the child to Weiwei and then flew toward the firmament, arriving at Yao Xi's side.

Ye Wen pried open Yao Xi's small mouth and fed her a pill to recover her Divine Power. After she had recovered somewhat, Ye Wen carried her back to the mountain peak in a bridal carry.

After landing, Ye Wen looked at Weiwei and said: "I'm taking her to heal." After saying that, he carried her back to the room.

In Ye Wen's arms, Yao Xi couldn't help but blush upon hearing the word "heal."
