77: Chapter 77 If my husband takes the initiative next time, maybe I'll be able to hug Sister Wenyan.

Wen Yan's room was decorated simply yet stylishly, permeated with a faint, cool fragrance.

She deliberately didn't sit with Lin Yun and Su Yingxue, instead huffily seating herself on a single-seater sofa.

Lin Qianxi and Wu Qingya very sensibly sat down on either side of her, keeping her company.

The entire morning passed in this relaxed and happy atmosphere of banter.

Everyone chatted about everything under the sun, occasionally teasing Wen Yan and Lin Yun.

Zhao Qingyue and Chen Yuwei also grew familiar with Wen Yan in this relaxed atmosphere, no longer as reserved as they were at the beginning.

Afternoon, Training Room.

In the ordinary Gravity Chamber, the environment was set to 2x gravity.

Zhao Qingyue and Chen Yuwei sat down, their faces filled with nervousness and anticipation.

After these few days of intimate Dual Cultivation with Lin Yun, the miraculous effects of the "Yin-Yang Harmony Technique" had benefited them greatly.

Their blood-qi values had long since crossed the 100-point threshold, reaching the standard required to attempt a Breakthrough to become a Martial Artist.

Today was the critical step for them to officially step into the path of martial arts.

Lin Yun stood before them, his expression serious and earnest:

"Relax your minds and carefully feel the energy circulation path I am guiding."

"Remember, the essence of the 'Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method' lies in simultaneously connecting the 'five hearts'—the centers of your palms, the soles of your feet, and the crown of your head—to maximize the absorption of Universe energy..."

He explained patiently and personally guided the two of them through the basics.

With the aid of 2x gravity, the gathering of Universe energy became even more pronounced.

Under Lin Yun's careful guidance and based on their own accumulated foundation, both of them successfully completed their first full circulation of the "Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method"!

The massive Universe energy rushed in like rivers flowing into the sea, scouring and transforming their bodies.

Their life Origin began its first leap!

Half an hour later, when both opened their eyes, a sharp light flickered within them.

Their auras had already undergone a subtle change, with energy fields faintly surrounding them.

First-Stage Martial Artist, achieved!

"I... I really became a Martial Artist?"

Chen Yuwei looked at her hands in disbelief, feeling an unprecedented sense of power within her body.

Zhao Qingyue was also so excited that her eyes turned red, and she nodded vigorously:

"Yes! We did it!"

The dream of becoming a Martial Artist had been realized so quickly in the Lin family; this was something they hadn't even dared to think about before.

The two wept with joy.

Lin Yun watched them with a smile, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.

His wives were becoming stronger and stronger, and this home was becoming more and more stable.

After a short rest and testing.

Both, having just entered the First-Stage, had punch power reaching over five thousand kilograms.

Zhao Qingyue even nearly reached six thousand kilograms, a cut above the average person who had just made a Breakthrough.

Lin Yun had them first follow Lin Qianxi and the others for adaptive training.

He himself walked toward the top-tier Gravity Chamber, which could reach a maximum of one hundred times gravity.

Opening the door and entering, Wen Yan was inside.

She was sitting cross-legged in the center, with a faint halo flowing around her body, currently Cultivating.

One hundred times gravity was now just a drizzle for Lin Yun.

For Wen Yan, it was even more of a piece of cake; if it weren't for the fact that the energy gathering speed was indeed faster here, she wouldn't even bother using it.

Hearing the commotion, Wen Yan opened her eyes. Seeing it was Lin Yun, she huffed and closed her eyes again.

Lin Yun didn't mind, walked over, and pulled out three crystals from his embrace, each flickering with a soft light, as if nebulae were flowing inside them.

They were Low Grade Universe crystals, which he stuffed into Wen Yan's hand.

Wen Yan immediately sensed the vast and pure energy contained within the Universe crystals and opened her eyes in surprise:

"Universe crystals? This stuff isn't common. Where did you get this, kid?"

As soon as the words left her mouth, she immediately straightened her face and turned her head away:

"...Forget it, you don't have to say."

She remembered Lin Yun's mysterious "mentor" and the "Fertility Holy Body," knowing this kid had plenty of secrets.

Lin Yun chuckled and leaned in closer: "To Sister Wen Yan, what could there be that I can't say?"

"This was given by that elusive, cheap master of mine."

"He said it was a 'congratulatory gift' for my success in taking wives."

He was now as natural and fluent as breathing when telling these half-true, half-false "lies."

The existence of the System could not be spoken of; he could only use this method to let those closest to him know about some "reasonable" sources.

Wen Yan stroked the cold Universe crystals, feeling the pure energy within, and the corners of her mouth lifted involuntarily:

"Hmph, at least you kid have some conscience, knowing to think of me when you have good things."

These Universe crystals were of great benefit for her to stabilize her Third-Stage Realm and even to attempt higher levels.

Immediately after, as if remembering something, she raised her willow eyebrows and glared at Lin Yun:

"Wrong! Why didn't you tell me about your 'Fertility Holy Body' the first time?"

Lin Yun looked aggrieved: "Sister Wen Yan, I'm wrongly accused!"

"After I knew my Physique was special, didn't I run to find you the first time, wanting to tell you, and also wanting... wanting to marry you?"

"Who knew that not only would you not agree, Sister Wen Yan, but you would throw me out directly..."

He appropriately revealed a pitiful expression.

Wen Yan choked, remembering the scene where she was both shy and angry, flustered, and threw this guy out the door.

Her cheeks warmed slightly, and her tone involuntarily softened a bit:

"This... is this the same?"

"Couldn't you just say it clearly? You had to beat around the bush and say it so... ambiguously!"

"Otherwise... otherwise why would I throw you out!"

"Then it's not too late to say it clearly now!"

Lin Yun's eyes lit up. Seeing Wen Yan's attitude soften, he immediately climbed up the pole, opening his arms to pull her into an embrace.

"Sister Wen Yan, actually I..."

"Bang!"

Before he could finish speaking, he received a solid, not-too-heavy flick to his forehead.

"Dream on!"

Wen Yan blushed and withdrew her hand, adjusted her training clothes, and restored that proud and calm appearance.

"A promise is a promise! Wait until you can defeat me fair and square before talking! Now, get out, don't disturb my Cultivating!"

Lin Yun covered the spot where he was hit, watching Wen Yan, who was clearly shy but pretending to be calm.

He found it funny yet warm in his heart, knowing he couldn't rush it, so he exited the Gravity Chamber.

Rest area.

Su Yingxue and the other three, as well as Zhao Qingyue and Chen Yuwei, who had just broken through and were still excited, were sitting together drinking water and resting.

They saw Lin Yun walking out of the top-tier Gravity Chamber, clutching his head with a look of helplessness and a smile.

The women were stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Husband got knocked on the head by Sister Wen Yan again!" Su Yingxue laughed the loudest, "I told you Sister Wen Yan says one thing and means another; she clearly cares about Husband in her heart, but won't admit it with her mouth."

Shen Youqing smiled: "Sister Wen Yan just has a sharp tongue but a soft heart; accepting the Universe crystals means she isn't really upset anymore."

Wu Qingya nodded: "Next time, Husband, be a little more proactive, and you might just be able to hug Sister Wen Yan~"

Lin Qianxi added with a blushing face: "I think Sister Wen Yan will agree to Husband very soon, and then we will have another good sister!"

Zhao Qingyue and the other one watched the sisters teasing Lin Yun unreservedly.

And Lin Yun just touched his head and smiled bitterly, without any dignity as a head of the household, and they couldn't help but laugh along.

This relaxed, harmonious, and loving family atmosphere filled their hearts with warmth.
