191: Thinking of Ye Lingxi
For the next two hours, the atmosphere inside Cangfeng Residence was filled with spring.
Jiu Ling'er's wine-scented Physique, which contained pure Spiritual Qi, unleashed an unexpected, wonderful effect during her Yin and Yang union with Cao Bu.
The Bottleneck he had been stuck at, the Peak of the Fifth Level Realm Emperor, was shattered by the impact of this pure and immense Spiritual Qi, resulting in a Breakthrough!
Strands of Law appeared and intertwined around Cao Bu's body. His aura climbed crazily, finally stabilizing at the Sixth Level Realm Sovereign!
The clouds parted and the rain ceased; the sky grew slightly dark.
Jiu Ling'er curled up lazily in Cao Bu's arms. Her drunkenness had faded, and her face wore the shyness and satisfaction of having just experienced the dew of rain.
Feeling the increasingly unfathomable aura on Cao Bu, she felt both joy and pride in her heart.
Cao Bu stroked her smooth back, feeling the surging power within his body, and was very satisfied.
This Jiu Ling'er was quite excellent.
"Do you still doubt This Clan Head's intentions now?" he asked with a low chuckle, looking at the charming face of the beauty in his arms.
Jiu Ling'er let out a soft moan and buried her burning cheeks into his chest: "Bad person~"
Cao Bu played with a lock of her hair that carried the scent of wine and chuckled: "Since our hearts are connected, I will grant you another stroke of good fortune and promise you a position of Immortal Ascension."
Jiu Ling'er looked up curiously, her beautiful eyes shimmering with moisture: "A position of Immortal Ascension?"
"That's right." With a thought from Cao Bu, the ten thousand fragrances paying homage to the phoenix diagram appeared out of thin air, hovering before them.
"This is your position of Immortal Ascension." Cao Bu explained: "Just peel off a wisp of your Primordial Spirit, force out a drop of Essence Blood, and merge them into the diagram."
Seeing the incredibly mystical scroll and feeling the immense Spiritual Qi and profound Law within it, Jiu Ling'er had no more doubts.
Without hesitation, enduring the pain of tearing her Primordial Spirit, she tore off a wisp of her pure Primordial Spirit and drew a drop of crimson Essence Blood from her heart.
The Primordial Spirit and the Essence Blood turned into two streams of light, one red and one gold, and submerged into the ten thousand fragrances paying homage to the phoenix diagram.
Inside the world of the scroll, Jiu Ling'er's phantom instantly condensed. Before she could take a closer look, she felt a surge of Spiritual Qi, a hundred times purer than the outside world, rushing towards her, mixed with fragments of Law that actively merged into her phantom.
In the outside world, Jiu Ling'er's physical body trembled violently, and her aura surged!
Her cultivation, which had just stabilized at the Peak of the Seventh Level Realm Sovereign, loosened once again, and naturally stepped into the Eighth Level Realm Sovereign!
The momentum of the promotion did not stop until it stabilized at the Peak of the Eighth Level Realm Sovereign, only then did it slowly cease.
The entire process took only a few breaths.
When Jiu Ling'er's consciousness returned from the diagram, feeling the surging growth of power within her body and a clearer perception of the Laws of heaven and earth, she was completely shocked.
Jiu Ling'er's red lips parted slightly, her beautiful eyes widened, and she looked at Cao Bu in disbelief.
"This... this..."
She was so excited that she couldn't speak coherently.
Such a rapid Breakthrough simply overturned her understanding!
Cao Bu was very satisfied with her reaction. He stroked her cheek and smiled: "This is just the most basic function of the ten thousand fragrances paying homage to the phoenix diagram; you will know in the future how many unexpected benefits you can get by staying by my side."
Jiu Ling'er no longer had any distracting thoughts in her heart, only shock and gratitude remained.
She nestled into Cao Bu's arms, her voice firm and tender: "Linger understands."
She knew clearly that from this moment on, her fate was closely linked to this man.
And this path leading to the supreme Realm had already unfolded before her eyes, clearer than ever before.
Cao Bu's lips curled slightly: "Don't leave tonight; I will introduce a few people to you."
Jiu Ling'er nodded obediently.
Time flew by, and it was late at night.
Jiu Ling'er looked at the person appearing outside the door and was stunned: "Cold, Cold Matriarch?"
Leng Yue glanced at Cao Bu with a smile that was not quite a smile: "Cao Bu, you have quite the methods; you've already taken down Miss Linger so quickly."
Hearing this, Jiu Ling'er's eyes widened, and an incredible thought surged in her heart as she looked at Cao Bu in disbelief.
Cao Bu nodded with a smile: "That's right, just as you think."
Before Jiu Ling'er could recover from the shock, another person appeared at the door.
"Su, Su Matriarch!"
As the granddaughter of the Wine God Temple master, Jiu Ling'er was more than familiar with these two.
Moreover, she had met Leng Yue last time.
As for Su Li, this was also their second meeting.
Although she wasn't familiar with her, she still recognized her.
Could it be?!
She looked at Cao Bu again.
Cao Bu nodded: "Call her Big Sister."
Jiu Ling'er turned to look at Su Li and subconsciously called out: "Big, Big Sister."
Su Li smiled sweetly and looked at Cao Bu: "Cao Bu, I didn't expect that in just a few short years, you would have so many women."
She was not jealous; if she were the only one, she wouldn't be able to handle Cao Bu at all.
With more women, they could share some of the pressure for her.
Before long, as one woman after another arrived, Jiu Ling'er was already numb.
When she saw Mu Zining and Mo Yu, her mouth opened wide enough to fit an egg.
Mu Zining and Mo Yu turned their faces away, too embarrassed to look directly at her.
Although the two of them knew this day would come, they didn't expect it to arrive so quickly.
The room fell into a subtle silence for a moment.
Looking at the usually dignified Aunt Mu and the lively Mo Yu, who were now both blushing and avoiding eye contact, Jiu Ling'er immediately understood everything.
She took a deep breath and broke the silence:
"Mu... Aunt Mu, Little Feather, I... I didn't expect to see you here."
Mu Zining's cheeks turned even redder. She gave Cao Bu a coquettish glance before looking at Jiu Ling'er, her tone carrying a bit of helplessness and resignation:
"Linger, this matter... sigh, it's a long story. Anyway, from now on... we are family."
Mo Yu was even more shy, keeping her head low, her voice as soft as a mosquito's hum: "Lin... Sister Linger."
Seeing them like this, the last bit of discomfort in Jiu Ling'er's heart dissipated, and instead, a subtle sense of balance arose, realizing that she wasn't the only one.
She stepped forward, gently took Mo Yu's cold hand, and whispered: "Little Feather, don't be afraid, from now on... we will look out for each other."
She had liked Cao Bu from the beginning, so she was much more open-minded than Mo Yu.
It was just that she didn't expect that the former waste would have so many women.
And every one of these women was an existence that could summon wind and rain in the outside world.
It's just...
She looked at Lu Qingwu and the other married women, not understanding how they could also be mixed up with Cao Bu.
Did their husbands not mind, or did they simply not know?
If this were to spread, the entire Spirit Realm would probably suffer a massive earthquake.
She looked at Mu Zining again, her eyes complex, eventually turning into a soft sigh: "Aunt Mu, from now on... I'm afraid I'll have to change how I address you."
After all, according to their current status, they were no longer simply elder and Junior.
Mu Zining naturally understood her meaning, her face heated up, and she nodded gently.
Su Li walked over, smiling to smooth things over: "Alright, since we are all family, let's put away the formalities and awkwardness; Sister Linger is new here, she will get used to it over time."
As the woman who followed Cao Bu the earliest, she already had a bit of the demeanor of a big sister.
Hearing this, the women nodded in agreement, and the atmosphere in the room finally became lively again.
Three days later.
Cao Bu's gaze suddenly fell on Tang Shuying.
Tang Shuying keenly perceived this gaze and subconsciously turned her head to look back, her heart suddenly skipping a beat.
She knew all too well what this gaze meant.
Sure enough, the next moment she heard Cao Bu's voice: "Shuying, Ye Lingxi and Chu Hao haven't officially married yet, have they?"
