16: I don’t care about anything, I’ll just follow you!

The moment Wen Yunyao threw the sword to the ground, Su Yang immediately knew he could safely remain in the Profound Heaven Dao Sect to continue his Cultivation.

Of course, the moment Junior Sister Yun Yao threw the sword to the ground, Su Yang also understood that the relationship between him and this Sect's direct daughter had become more complicated.

However, since this girl was going to use him for Cultivation tonight, and had already started, Su Yang naturally wouldn't hesitate.

It wasn't the first time, anyway.

He had just reached the Early Stage Bottleneck, so perhaps tonight he would have a chance to enter the Middle Stage.

After accompanying her to vent her emotions, Su Yang took her into a state of Cultivation.

When two people Cultivate together, the increase in True Essence brought about by the interweaving of Yin and Yang Spiritual Qi is not necessarily double, but at least 1.5 times what he would achieve Cultivating alone. This was crucial for Su Yang, who was attempting to Breakthrough his Bottleneck.

An endless stream of Spiritual Qi gathered within his body, and under Su Yang's control, it circulated through Wen Yunyao's body via a connecting bridge before returning, rapidly transforming into pure and potent True Essence.

This was not the first time Su Yang had enhanced his Cultivation in this manner, so the efficiency improved with each attempt.

To elevate his Cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Stage - Mid Phase before his Confinement ended, Su Yang was exceptionally focused today; the speed and efficiency of Spiritual Qi transformation were faster than any previous attempt.

As time passed, the True Essence within his body accumulated more and more.

As dawn approached, the True Essence finally reached a Bottleneck stage. With Su Yang's continuous exertion, the surging True Essence suddenly erupted as if breaking through an invisible barrier.

At the same time, after a night of Cultivation, Su Yang himself also completely erupted at this moment.

Under the dual eruption, both kidneys emitted a stronger blue light than usual, accompanied by a simultaneous burst of intense light from the Dantian. The entire Dantian subsequently became more expansive, Su Yang felt his body lighten, all pressure vanished, and a broader minor Realm opened before him.

Su Yang knew he had broken through during the eruption!

Although it was only a minor Realm Breakthrough, the changes in his strength and Cultivation were still clearly discernible.

If he, in the Foundation Establishment Stage - Early Phase, could easily defeat Wen Yunyao, who was in the Foundation Establishment Stage - Mid Phase, then now, he could fight five!

Five in every sense of the word!

Su Yang slowly opened his eyes; Wen Yunyao was leaning weakly against him.

At the moment his Cultivation broke through and instantly erupted, she also experienced a strong resonance.

Initially, Wen Yunyao would feel embarrassed, but now, after many times, it was no longer as awkward.

After recovering, she pinched his face with a blush.

"What are you looking at? It's all your fault!"

"How is it my fault? Isn't this quite good?"

Su Yang teased.

"Good, my foot."

How could a girl admit it, even if she truly enjoyed the feeling?

Seeing him smile at her, Wen Yunyao felt embarrassed by his gaze and changed the subject, "You broke through?"

Su Yang nodded.

In just seven days of Confinement, he had advanced from the Foundation Establishment Stage - Early Phase to the Foundation Establishment Stage - Mid Phase. Even Su Yang himself found such a Cultivation speed incredible, only able to marvel at the power of the Innate Kidney Body.

Of course, if it weren't for Junior Sister Yun Yao during these seven days, he wouldn't have been able to Breakthrough smoothly.

"Junior Sister Yun Yao, no matter what, thank you."

"Hmph, it's all thanks to me, isn't it?"

Wen Yunyao tilted her head, showing a hint of pride.

"Indeed, it's all thanks to you."

Su Yang smiled and nodded, not denying it in the slightest.

However, Su Yang also knew that once they left the Confinement Room today, their relationship could not continue like this. He still wanted to take this opportunity to clarify some things with her.

"Junior Sister Yun Yao, thank you for this period of time."

"However, I think you should also understand that our relationship cannot continue like this indefinitely. Firstly, you are engaged. Secondly, during this time, you should also know that my Cultivation method is very special. In the future, I may need more women to participate in my Cultivation, and I guess you definitely can't accept this..."

Su Yang's words were interrupted by Wen Yunyao before he could finish. "Who says I can't accept it? It's just Cultivation, what's there to not accept!"

"Huh???"

Su Yang was stunned.

Wen Yunyao said with a blush, "I know what you want to tell me. But! But! The moment I dropped the sword and gave up on killing you, I finally understood what I wanted. I just want to continue with you! Hmph, my first time was taken by you, you won't get away with being irresponsible that easily! You don't need to worry about the engagement; I'll figure out how to break it myself! Also, even if you have other women in the future, I don't care, I just want to be with you!"

The more the girl spoke, the louder she got, and her eyes became more resolute.

The light flickering in her eyes showed that her heart was pounding fiercely. As a girl, she had used all her courage to say those words.

"Don't even think about abandoning me. Even if you escape the Sect, I will follow in your footsteps and leave with you!"

After Wen Yunyao finished her last sentence, she leaned in and gave Su Yang a heavy kiss on the cheek, then got up from him and fled the Confinement Room as if escaping.

The nascent sunlight shone on her, and Wen Yunyao glowed.

Her face bore an unprecedentedly relaxed smile. Although her heart was pounding, having spoken those words, she felt a sense of relief.

What's wrong with being a girl? Even girls can dare to love and dare to hate.

Although their relationship began with a mistake, so what? She knew that from the beginning of that mistake, she belonged to him, and she hoped to belong to him forever.

She didn't care about anything else!

Wen Yunyao looked back at the Confinement Room, a smile of daring to love and hate on her face, and flew home.

Inside the Confinement Room.

Su Yang was stunned.

Truly stunned.

He had already anticipated that Junior Sister Yun Yao had feelings for him, but he hadn't expected her to be so bold and proactive.

Su Yang rubbed his temples, self-mockingly saying, "Did the Innate Kidney Body satisfy this girl too much??? What do I do now..."

What a headache.

Having had such close contact with Wen Yunyao for so many days, he understood her to some extent.

On the surface, this girl seemed like a pampered, privileged direct daughter of a Sect, sometimes arrogant, sometimes sharp-tongued, but deep down, she was a very emotional woman who dared to love and dare to hate.

If she dared to say that to him, she most likely dared to do it.

"Should I leave the Sect immediately?"

Su Yang muttered to himself, then immediately dismissed the thought, "If this girl really followed him out of the Sect, then their affair would be completely exposed, and he would easily become a target for the Sect's pursuit."

After much thought, Su Yang decided to remain in the Sect for now.

He would find an opportunity to make it clear to her not to act rashly; perhaps things wouldn't escalate to an uncontrollable point.

With that in mind, Su Yang stopped overthinking.

He took a deep breath and got up from the ground.

He saw that the sun had already risen outside.

"Why haven't they come to release me yet?"

"By my calculations, today should be the day for the new batch of Foundation Establishment Disciples to head to the Burial Immortal Valley. I wonder if I can make it... Hey~~~ Senior Brothers, my Confinement time is up, can you let me out...?"

Su Yang shouted outside.

Could he leave on his own?

Of course he could!

But the rule of the Confinement Room was that Confinement officially ended only when someone came to release you. If he left the Confinement Room without permission before then, if he happened to encounter a Senior Brother from the Discipline Pavilion who was in a bad mood, they could keep him confined for a few more days without needing a reason.

At such a critical moment, Su Yang dared not take that risk.

"Hey~~~ Senior Brother of the Discipline Pavilion~~~ My Confinement time should be up, right...?"
