180: The Light of the Divine Artifact!

The matter involving Su Yang and Miao Qingsha was, after all, extraordinary.

When Su Yang and Cold Moon Cultivated, he also instructed her not to tell Yun Yao about it.

After half a year of Cultivation, Cold Moon had gradually grown accustomed to Cultivating with everyone and didn't have much objection, so she agreed to help Su Yang conceal the matter from Wen Yunyao.

When it was time to Cultivate with Wen Yunyao.

Su Yang felt her warmth, and the feeling in his heart was somewhat peculiar.

The feeling these mother and daughter gave off... was still very different. Ahem, ahem... No, no, guilt, guilt... "Su Yang, what's wrong with you today? Why do you seem distracted?"

They had just settled down and completed the connection, but had not yet entered the full state of Cultivation. As the first woman to Cultivate with Su Yang, Wen Yunyao naturally noticed immediately that Su Yang's state today was a bit off.

Furthermore,

The look in Su Yang's eyes today seemed slightly different from usual.

"Is something the matter?"

Wen Yunyao asked again.

Su Yang collected his thoughts, smiled, and pinched her little cheek. "Nothing is wrong. Let's Cultivate."

"Oh~"

Wen Yunyao didn't think much of it and entered a state of deep Cultivation with Su Yang. The two floated in the air, emitting the unique spiritual light characteristic of Cultivation.

However,

Su Yang still couldn't completely calm his mind.

After much thought, Su Yang still wanted to ask Wen Yunyao a question.

"Yun Yao, I have a question I want to ask you."

"What question? Tell me. Why are we being so reserved between us? Just ask whatever you want."

Su Yang pondered for a moment, then quietly asked her telepathically, "Are you... the biological child of your Parents?"

"Huh?"

Wen Yunyao was so stunned by Su Yang's question that she immediately exited the Cultivation state, feeling a bit confused. "Why are you asking that all of a sudden? Did you hear my mother mention something when you sent her back?"

Su Yang said, "No, I didn't. I just suddenly thought of something. Your father and mother are cultivators who started Cultivating very early, and your father has been the Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Dao Sect for thousands of years. Logically, your Parents should have given birth to you long ago, so why did you only appear in the last decade or so? Could you... have been adopted by them?"

Wen Yunyao clearly didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What are you thinking? I am 100% the biological child of my Parents. Although ever since I was old enough to remember, I knew my Parents' relationship wasn't great, one thing is certain: I am definitely their biological child. Don't you think I resemble both my Parents somewhat?"

"That is true..."

It must be admitted that Wen Yunyao indeed inherited certain traits from the Sect Master and the Sect Master's Wife; some resemblance was visible.

"Moreover, when I was little, I often heard the attendants who looked after me say that my mother had a particularly difficult time when she was pregnant, yet she still insisted on Cultivating every day. During that time, my father also took care of my mother daily. How could I possibly not be the biological child of my Parents?"

Wen Yunyao stated with great certainty.

"In that case, you really are the biological child of your Parents..."

"What do you mean by that? Do you wish I weren't the biological child of my Parents?"

"That's not what I meant. I just suddenly thought of it, that's all. Let's Cultivate properly."

Su Yang laughed it off and pretended to be calm as he entered the Cultivation state.

Wen Yunyao still couldn't understand why Su Yang suddenly brought up the strange topic of whether she was the biological child of her Parents. She felt sure that her mother must have said something to him to cause such confusion.

Wen Yunyao thought, "Although I am 100% certain I am the biological child of my Parents, I should still ask Mother what she told Su Yang when I return to the Sect, which caused him to have such strange doubts."

Since she was absolutely certain she was the biological child of her Parents, Wen Yunyao didn't dwell on the matter and quickly re-entered the Cultivation state.

Su Yang, however, kept muttering inwardly.

If Wen Yunyao truly was Miao Qingsha's biological daughter, theoretically, he couldn't be Miao Qingsha's first man.

But if he wasn't Miao Qingsha's first man, he genuinely received a fixed 30% increase in cultivation base for one year from her.

These two points were contradictory and conflicting.

"Could it be that the rule of the Innate Kidney Body truly has some hidden clauses I haven't discovered?"

"Does Miao Qingsha have anything special about her? She doesn't seem to."

"Could it be related to the abnormal Spiritual Qi within her body?"

Su Yang spent the entire day Cultivating with Wen Yunyao thinking about her mother... hmm... thinking about what special characteristics her mother possessed that allowed Su Yang to gain a fixed Cultivation increase even though he wasn't her first man.

But no matter how much he thought about it, Su Yang couldn't figure out what the problem was.

Miao Qingsha was still Miao Qingsha. Aside from the abnormal Spiritual Qi in her body, whose origin even Luo Luo and Cold Moon couldn't discern, everything else about her was no different from any other woman.

Since he truly couldn't figure it out, he stopped worrying about it.

Even if he lost the 30% Cultivation benefit Miao Qingsha provided, his Cultivation speed was already extremely fast; losing 30% wouldn't be a major issue.

Besides,

In the future, he would have other women join his Cultivation team, and regaining that 30% Cultivation benefit would actually be very easy.

Take Crimson Phoenix, for example.

The current Crimson Phoenix already looked like a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl. After Cultivating for a while longer, when the girl became a bit more graceful, she could dedicate herself.

Wouldn't that 30% be easily recovered then?

Furthermore, the issue with Miao Qingsha had already been resolved. Knowing the reason behind it was completely irrelevant to him.

Most likely, they won't have any further interactions in the future... right?!

...After letting go of his curiosity about Miao Qingsha, Su Yang's subsequent days returned to normal.

One Cultivation session per day, lasting the whole day.

Three more months passed like this.

Everyone, including Su Yang, saw an improvement in their cultivation base.

Although Luo Luo and Cold Moon's increases were small, they were clearly better than if they had Cultivated on their own.

Cold Moon, in particular, had recovered 80% of her injuries during these three months. The remaining 20% of the injuries were nothing given her current strength.

The current Cold Moon was only one step away from her own Peak.

As long as she continued to Cultivate going forward, the remaining 20% of her injuries would soon fully recover. At that point, she would not only return to her Peak but also see her cultivation base improve beyond its original level.

Gu Yue and the others, needless to say, saw even more obvious improvements in their cultivation base.

Gu Yue was steadily approaching the Peak Late Spirit Transformation Stage.

Bai Lingxi successfully entered the Void Refining Middle Stage, taking her strength to a higher level.

An Ran, Wen Yunyao, and Lin Bingqing's strength was also steadily rising; all three were striving to reach the Nascent Soul Mid-Stage.

When not Cultivating, Su Yang would occasionally take a break, usually once a month for five days. The only thing to do during these five days was to battle the assembled heroes alone!

After the break ended, it was back to Cultivation.

On this day, Su Yang and Luo Luo were Cultivating.

A scorching red light suddenly erupted from the direction of Wangxian Hall, shooting straight into the sky. The red light spread across the firmament, instantly evaporating all white clouds within a radius of hundreds of miles. The flying Spirit Beasts soaring in the sky could not withstand this immense power and plummeted one after another...
