78: Chapter 78 Raising a Loyal Dog! Linglong will listen to you in everything from now on!

Early the next morning, the sky was just beginning to brighten.

The extreme cold Qi and Solar Essence within the inner chamber had long since subsided.

Leng Qingyue lay prone on a soft jade pillow, her breathing steady and deep.

She was truly exhausted at this moment.

Even in her dreams, her hands still tightly gripped the corner of Cao Kun's clothes, as if afraid he might run away.

Cao Kun leaned against the headboard, looking at the cold and peerless face in his arms.

He gently pulled his clothes back.

He casually threw on a large black robe and got out of bed.

It wasn't until his feet hit the floor that Cao Kun remembered something.

In this spacious inner chamber, there weren't just the two of them.

Yu Linglong still maintained the same posture of sitting slumped on the ground from last night.

For the entire night.

She had stayed huddled on the cold white jade floor tiles like that.

Her purple flowing cloud dress had long been soaked through with sweat,

And several strands of sweat-drenched purple hair clung messily to her cheeks and slender neck.

Sweat droplets dripping down her hair gathered into a small puddle on the tiles in front of her.

Cao Kun was somewhat surprised.

That... had been in its highest activation state the whole time.

Yet she really hadn't made a single sound.

She hadn't even dared to move an inch.

She had just endured it like that for the whole night.

Seeing this scene, Cao Kun couldn't help but feel a secret sense of admiration.

As expected of a Revered Master, her endurance is truly astonishing.

With a thought, Cao Kun cut off the spiritual energy output.

As the feeling of restraint and pain vanished simultaneously,

“Ugh...”

Her nerves, which had been tense all night, suddenly relaxed. Yu Linglong could no longer support herself, and her delicate body toppled straight over to the side.

Cao Kun took a few steps to Yu Linglong, reached out to grab her arm, and helped her up.

Upon contact,

Yu Linglong's muscles were as tense as volcanic rock and frighteningly hot.

Cao Kun lowered his head, looking at this slightly pale, fatigue-filled, and charming face.

He raised an eyebrow and spoke in a flat tone.

“Well?”

“Are you used to these past two nights?”

“Do you still dare to do those clever little tricks behind my back in the future?”

Originally, according to Cao Kun's expectations, as soon as these words were spoken,

Yu Linglong would surely take the Opportunity.

She would press herself against him, using her full body to rub against him, acting coquettishly to beg for mercy,

Using all sorts of seductive methods to please him, trying to completely move past yesterday's events.

Cao Kun was even prepared to push her away and ignore her for a few more days.

But who would have thought.

When Yu Linglong heard those words,

Her eyes instantly turned red.

Her lips trembled violently several times.

The emotions she had suppressed for several days completely burst forth at this moment.

“Waaah—!”

Yu Linglong actually started wailing loudly without any regard for her image, like a little girl who had suffered a great injustice!

This sudden contrast left Cao Kun completely stunned.

What's the situation?

This style isn't right!

The usually high-and-mighty, seductive, and enchanting Grand Elder of the Hehuan Sect was now crying so hard that snot bubbles were almost coming out.

Holy shit.

This woman couldn't have been stimulated too much and broken by me, right?

If I really drove a Golden Core Late Stage Peak Jade Beast crazy, that would be a huge loss.

Yu Linglong couldn't care less what Cao Kun was thinking.

Her legs went weak, and she slid down along Cao Kun's legs to sit on the floor.

She tightly hugged Cao Kun's waist, burying her tear-and-sweat-stained face in his abdomen, and wept loudly.

“Wooo... I don't dare to anymore!”

“Revered Master, I'll never dare to do it again!”

“I was wrong... I really know I was wrong!”

Yu Linglong cried until she was out of breath, her voice hoarse.

“Linglong will listen to you in everything from now on!”

“If you tell me to go east, I will never go west!”

“Don't drive me away... I beg you, please show me some love occasionally too, okay...”

“I don't want to watch you only dote on others... My heart hurts so much, wooo...”

Accompanied by Yu Linglong's ungraceful breakdown and tearful confession,

In Cao Kun's mind, the System notification sounds began to flood the screen.

[Ding! Detected that the Jade Beast 'Yu Linglong's' psychological defenses have completely collapsed.]

[Extreme dependence and submission consciousness generated!]

[taming value +2!]

[taming value +3!]

[Reward task points: 500!]

Hearing the System's notification sounds, Cao Kun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as she's not crazy.

Not only was she not crazy, the effect was surprisingly good.

Since the goal of the warning had been achieved and the woman's sharp edges had been smoothed out,

Cao Kun knew he couldn't just keep suppressing her blindly.

Blind suppression would only push people away; a combination of kindness and authority is the way to manage subordinates.

Now that the slap was over, it was time to give some sweetness.

Cao Kun sighed.

His attitude clearly softened.

He leaned down, his hands going under Yu Linglong's armpits.

He pulled this tearful, beautiful Revered Master up from the ground.

Yu Linglong's body was limp, and she took the Opportunity to press herself tightly into Cao Kun's arms, still sobbing incessantly.

Cao Kun put one hand around her slender waist.

The other hand was pressed against her smooth back.

The Chaos Unity Art activated.

The pure Solar Essence in his body flowed through his palm and was slowly transferred into Yu Linglong's body.

The warm and domineering spiritual power traveled through her sore and stiff Meridians.

It smoothed out the muscle soreness from being stiff all night and also dispersed the accumulated moisture in her body.

Feeling this long-lost warmth, Yu Linglong's crying gradually subsided, leaving only occasional hiccups.

“Alright, how old are you, crying like a child.”

“You've got snot all over my clothes.”

Cao Kun's tone softened a bit as he reached out to wipe the tear stains from her face.

“As long as you are obedient, stay by my side properly, don't cause trouble, and don't start internal strife,”

“How could I not want you?”

Hearing this promise from Cao Kun,

Yu Linglong's crying stopped. She looked up, her swollen peach-blossom eyes full of disbelief.

“Revered Master... Are you really not angry with me anymore?”

“You really won't drive me away?”

Cao Kun looked at her insecure appearance and snorted coldly.

“If I really wanted to drive you away, I would have slapped you to death yesterday. Why would I leave you here to watch the show all night?”

Yu Linglong shrank her neck, not daring to respond.

She could only rub her cheek against Cao Kun's chest pleasingly.

To completely nail this woman's heart to himself,

Cao Kun decided not to hide anything anymore.

He flipped his wrist.

An extremely exquisite porcelain bottle appeared out of thin air in his palm.

Cao Kun held the bottle and waved it in front of Yu Linglong's eyes.

“Do you know what this is?”

Yu Linglong blinked, her gaze falling on the porcelain bottle.

She shook her head.

Cao Kun gently flicked his thumb, opening the bottle's stopper.

Inside lay two Medicinal Pills.

One was dark gold all over, with natural pill patterns.

It was the grade 6 barrier-breaking pill that was enough to make all Golden Core Cultivators go crazy.

As for the other one,

It was pure white and flawless, with no patterns on the surface, yet it contained an indescribable aura of the Great Dao.

A terrifying medicinal fragrance, a hundred times more potent than when Leng Qingyue took it, gushed out from the bottle's mouth!

Just a trace of the fragrance leaked out,

And Yu Linglong felt her Golden Core Late Stage Peak Bottleneck, which had been stagnant for decades, experience a very obvious loosening!

The spiritual power in her body began to boil uncontrollably!

Yu Linglong's eyes widened.

She stared intently at the porcelain bottle, her voice trembling.

“This... this is...”

Seeing her shocked expression, Cao Kun unhurriedly put the stopper back on, cutting off that terrifying medicinal fragrance.

“Inside here is a grade 6 barrier-breaking pill.”

“And one High-Grade Advancement Pill.”

“These two pills together are enough to help you directly break through the shackles of the Late Golden Core Stage and form a top-grade Nascent Soul.”

“Even sprinting towards the higher Soul Transformation Stage is not impossible.”

Soul Transformation Stage!

The Hehuan Sect had been established for tens of thousands of years, and the current Sect Master Qin Canglan was only at the Nascent Soul Late Stage!

In the entire Qingzhou, Soul Transformation Stage experts were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, all being old monsters in seclusion within super-large Sects!

And now,

Revered Master actually held a Heaven-Defying Opportunity in his hand that could allow her to ascend to the heavens in one step and enter the Soul Transformation Stage!

“I had prepared these two things for you long ago.”

“You've been stuck at the Golden Core Late Stage Peak for so many years; your foundation is already sufficient. I was thinking of finding a good day to give you a big surprise.”

“To let you directly skip the Nascent Soul and become a top existence in all of Qingzhou.”

“But you,”

Cao Kun snorted coldly, his eyes showing a hint of disappointment.

“Instead of walking the broad road to the heavens right in front of you, you insisted on causing trouble yourself.”

“Running to the Miaoyin Sect to pull those low-class stunts and making me angry.”

“Tell me, aren't you just asking for trouble?”

Cao Kun's words completely shattered all of Yu Linglong's psychological defenses.

Her mind went blank.

So...

So Revered Master had always been thinking of her in his heart!

While she was feeling insecure over trivial matters of jealousy,

Revered Master had already secretly planned a supreme path straight to the clouds for her!

Revered Master had been keeping the most top-tier, Heaven-Defying Opportunity for her all along!

And what about her?

Like a clown,

For the sake of fighting over some illusory affection,

And to guard against a few little girls who posed no threat at all, she went and did such a stupid thing as betraying her Revered Master!

She even went to the Miaoyin Sect and tried to use such despicable means to frame Qingyue!

Simply foolish to the extreme!

Yu Linglong only now realized what a stupid thing she had done.

She abandoned the path to the heavens,

Only to fight with a few women in the mud!

Revered Master's vision is in the Nine Heavens,

While she was like a frog at the bottom of a well.

Intense regret, self-reproach, and gratitude, all sorts of emotions intertwined.

Ultimately, they transformed into an extremely fanatical faith.

Tears welled up in her eyes again.

But this time, it was no longer grievance, but complete submission.

“Revered Master... Linglong was wrong...”

“From now on, Linglong's life, this body, along with my Divine Soul, all belong to Revered Master!”

“Even if Revered Master tells me to die, Linglong will never even frown!”

As Yu Linglong's words fell,

In Cao Kun's mind,

The pleasant System notification sound erupted into an unprecedentedly high-pitched roar.

[Ding! Detected that the Jade Beast 'Yu Linglong' has completely submitted in body and mind, with no more double-mindedness!]

[Yu Linglong taming value +6!]

[Current taming value (100/100)!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the taming value of Jade Beast No. 1 'Yu Linglong' has reached the maximum!]

[Triggered Ultimate Hidden Reward!]
