Chapter 60 I can also

Before Su Ningxue could say anything else, Ye Fan boldly pulled her into his arms and kissed her fragrant lips fiercely.

Su Ningxue felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her mind going completely blank.

She instinctively raised her hand, wanting to kill Ye Fan, but her body was no longer listening to her commands.

Having spent every day with a beauty for the past month, Ye Fan's inner fire had long since surged to its limit; now that it had finally erupted, he no longer cared about anything else.

Ye Fan picked up Su Ningxue and rushed into the room, prepared to have a decisive battle with her.

"Ye Fan, you... how dare you... let go of me quickly..."

Although Su Ningxue said this, her lustful gaze had already betrayed her true thoughts.

"Wait... I... want... want to be on top."

Su Ningxue looked bashful, her delicate body unable to stop trembling as she tried to take the initiative like before.

But this time, Ye Fan didn't obediently listen; instead, he prepared to use practical actions to tell her that some things were for him to decide.

After an unknown amount of time, the strange sounds in the room gradually faded away.

Looking at the dazed expression in the beautiful eyes of the lady in his arms, a sense of unprecedented satisfaction rose in Ye Fan's heart.

During their previous "deep exchanges," Ye Fan had always been in a passive state, which felt somewhat unfulfilling.

It wasn't until this time that he finally held his head high, letting Su Ningxue experience feelings she had never felt before.

"The Core Formation Realm is indeed the Core Formation Realm. Luckily, I took the dragon tiger pill and broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm; otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to handle her," Ye Fan couldn't help but remark.

After a long while, Su Ningxue gradually came to her senses. Thinking about everything that had just happened, she was both ashamed and annoyed, raising her hand to hit Ye Fan.

But all the strength in Su Ningxue's body seemed to have been drained; she couldn't even move a single finger.

"You... do you want to die?!"

Su Ningxue's threat had no effect at all; instead, it added a bit of flirtatious charm.

This made Ye Fan feel much more energetic again, and the flames in his eyes were reignited.

"Don't... I can't anymore..."

Su Ningxue instantly understood what Ye Fan wanted to do, feeling so ashamed she wanted to hide.

"But I'm prone to making mistakes like this. Maybe I should go find Wan'er instead."

Ye Fan put on a troubled expression, and his pretense of leaving actually made Su Ningxue a bit panicked.

"Don't... who said you could leave... I... I can still go on," Su Ningxue said with a flushed face.

"Forget it, Wan'er is better. She can do this... and that..."

Ye Fan leaned in and whispered a few words into Su Ningxue's ear. Her pretty face heated up at a visible rate, turning into a human steam engine in an instant.

"You... how dare you... nonsense... how could Wan'er possibly do such a thing..."

"If you don't believe me, forget it. I'm going to find Wan'er."

"Stop! Did I give you permission to leave?!"

Su Ningxue actually got a bit anxious, releasing the pressure of a Core Formation Realm Cultivator that pinned him down so he couldn't move.

But just as Ye Fan thought he had overplayed his hand, an unexpected scene occurred.

"Hmph... isn't it just... just... I can do it too."

Su Ningxue hesitated for a long while, her pretty face burning red.

The next second, she extended a beautiful leg that looked like it was carved from white jade, her toes trembling slightly, looking as pitiable and lovely as a panicked little rabbit.

Ye Fan hadn't expected it to go so smoothly, and he couldn't help but feel a bit of regret in his heart.

"If I had known, I should have said... hiss."

After a long while, Su Ningxue, overwhelmed by bashfulness, hurriedly ran into the inner room to wash up.

Ye Fan originally wanted to shamelessly follow her in, until a Flying Sword was pressed against his throat, forcing him to change his mind.

"Ahem... I'll go back and wash up then."

After Ye Fan left, Su Ningxue couldn't calm down for a long time. Thinking of everything that had happened, she felt utterly ashamed and regretted not killing him with a single palm strike back then.

Su Ningxue's heart was incredibly conflicted; she had no idea how to face Ye Fan.

This feeling grew stronger as time passed; she even felt that if this continued, she would eventually fall for him completely.

While Su Ningxue was lost in thought, Ye Fan had already returned to his grotto-heaven residence.

Thinking about everything that had happened this month, he wore a smile of a successful scheme.

If things continued at this rate, he would be able to win over Su Ningxue even before reaching Core Formation.

Thinking about a Core Formation Realm Cultivator being at his beck and call, the fire that Ye Fan had just calmed down showed signs of reigniting, and it took a great deal of effort for him to barely cool off.

But just as he was about to head home, his Personal Disciple token began to flash.

"Come to the Tongtian Peak Great Hall immediately."

"A command from the Sect Head?"

This was a communication function exclusive to Personal Disciple tokens. Aside from their respective Peak Revered Masters and Revered Masters, the number of people qualified to issue orders was very small, and the Sect Head was one of them.

Ye Fan didn't know why the Sect Head was looking for him at this time, but considering the Heavenly Pride Assembly was approaching, it might be because of that.

Ye Fan saw that Murong Wan was still in seclusion, so after leaving a message, he rushed to the Tongtian Peak Great Hall.

At this moment, the upper echelons of the Sect were gathered in the Great Hall, led by the Sect Head of the Joyous Union Sect, Qing Mingzi.

In front of him stood a young Cultivator with a long sword on his back. He appeared to be around the same age as Ye Fan, but from the aura radiating from his body, it was easy to see that he was at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Realm.

Judging by his age, having such a cultivation level made him a true Prodigy among prodigies; in the entire Joyous Union Sect, there were very few who could be compared to him.

Ye Fan walked into the Great Hall, not knowing what was happening, and gave a deep bow to the Sect Head and the various high-ranking members.

"Greetings, Sect Head and Elders."

The Sect Head gave a soft hum of acknowledgment, but his expression was somewhat unnatural.

Ye Fan had a suspicious look on his face, clearly unaware of what was going on.

But before he could ask, the young man with the long sword spoke first.

"I didn't expect the famous Ye Fan to only have a Fifth Level of Qi Refining Realm cultivation. For someone like this to be able to take first place in the Trial Assembly, the Disciples of the Joyous Union Sect this year are truly useless."

"I'm just a direct speaker, Sect Head, please don't take it to heart. If I've said anything wrong, this Junior apologizes in advance."

Li Qing's words caused great dissatisfaction among the many high-ranking members of the Joyous Union Sect, but they couldn't vent their anger.

This fellow kept calling himself a Disciple and apologizing, completely positioning himself as a Junior.

If they forcibly punished him, they would undoubtedly gain a reputation for bullying the young.

But if they didn't act, they couldn't swallow this insult, so they could only glare at Ye Fan, seemingly blaming him.

Feeling the unfriendly gazes from all around, Ye Fan was also somewhat speechless, feeling as though he were being made a scapegoat for no reason.

Although the Sect Head was also annoyed, it didn't show on his face, maintaining the poise of a Sect Head as he explained Li Qing's background to Ye Fan.

"A Prodigy of the Qingyun Sect?!"

It turned out that although the Heavenly Pride Assembly was co-hosted by the Nine Great Sects, the host rotated each time to ensure fairness, and this year it happened to be the Qingyun Sect's turn.

Among the Nine Great Sects, the Joyous Union Sect and the Qingyun Sect were similar in strength, both hovering around the middle tier—not as good as those above but better than those below—naturally becoming the most intense rivals.
