219: Persuade Huan Ying and You Ye

Not long after.

Cao Bu returned to Eternal Night City with the women.

The next day.

While he was focused on tempering Huan Ying's mind, ripples suddenly appeared in the Void Realm beside the bed, and then Fang Ruodan's figure materialized.

She wore a purple dress that complemented her snow-white skin and features as beautiful as a painting.

Without looking up, Cao Bu asked, "How did things go? Was it noticed by anyone?"

Looking at the charming scene before her, Fang Ruodan's cheeks reddened slightly, and she bit her lower lip, saying, "No one noticed."

"Following your instructions, I first controlled the Lin Clan's Grand Elder, then recalled the clan's disciples, and finally wiped them all out in one blow."

"However, the news probably won't be suppressed for long. The matter of the Lin Clan's destruction should spread soon."

"It doesn't matter," Cao Bu said nonchalantly. "In any case, no one knows who did it."

Huan Ying was at a critical point, and seeing him distracted, she couldn't help but give him a resentful glance. "Cao Bu, can't you be a bit more focused when you're doing your business?"

After spending time together these past few days, Huan Ying had long since come to terms with it.

She was originally a demoness, so there was no scene she hadn't witnessed; naturally, she adapted quickly.

Only now did she understand why Zhao Wei had betrayed Lin Xiaotian back then.

This feeling was indeed more intoxicating than a sudden Immortal Ascension.

She even felt some regret.

Why hadn't she found a man to experience this earlier? Now, that bastard Cao Bu was getting all the benefits.

Cao Bu chuckled, "What's the rush? This kind of thing must be done slowly."

Fang Ruodan pursed her lips as she watched from the side, then suddenly approached and said, "Cao Bu, let me massage your shoulders."

As she spoke, she took the opportunity to press against him, and soon she was messing around with Cao Bu.

Time flowed, and a month passed.

Shen Youye sent a message through the ten thousand fragrances paying homage to the phoenix diagram: "Cao Bu, the yin yang jade is in hand."

Cao Bu took Fang Ruodan and the other women into the diagram and brought Huan Ying along to the Jiye Chamber of Commerce.

The center of Eternal Night City.

Inside a private room on the top floor of the Jiye Chamber of Commerce, agarwood incense curled upward.

Shen Youye, in a black dress, was sitting by the window sipping tea.

When the door was pushed open, she looked up, and the teacup in her hand nearly fell.

She saw Cao Bu enter, with Huan Ying clinging to his arm like a little bird, her eyes filled with seductive charm.

"You... you two..." Shen Youye rubbed her eyes, thinking she was hallucinating. "How did you two end up together?"

Huan Ying let go of Cao Bu, walked gracefully to Shen Youye, reached out to curl a lock of her hair, and breathed like orchids, "Sister Shen, let me tell you some good news: I've found true love."

Shen Youye was stunned for a moment, then burst into a sneer. "True love? Huan Ying, have you lost your mind? This bastard is clearly just after your body!"

"So what?" Huan Ying turned back to Cao Bu's side and leaned against his shoulder. "Anyway, I love this bastard to death now. A day without him feels like three years."

A hint of playfulness flashed in Shen Youye's eyes as she looked Huan Ying up and down. "Could it be that you were 'slept' into submission?"

She and Huan Ying were both granddaughters of the two great Heavenly Emperors of the Demon State. They had known each other since childhood and had competed both openly and secretly.

She hadn't expected that Cao Bu could even conquer this arrogant demoness.

Wait.

Shen Youye suddenly thought of something and asked curiously, "How did he win you over? It couldn't be that he forced himself on you, and then you just went along with it?"

Hearing this, Huan Ying's beautiful eyes widened. "How did you know he used force?"

She sighed, "At first, I indeed hated him to the bone. But later, this bastard had too many tricks. He tormented me to death in bed. I had no choice but to submit."

As she spoke, Huan Ying suddenly noticed something. She leaned closer to Shen Youye to sense carefully, and then her eyes widened. "Your Primordial Yin Qi is gone. Don't tell me you also...?"

"That's right." Shen Youye sighed helplessly, a blush appearing on her face. "Just like you, I fell into this bastard's hands."

Huan Ying gasped and suddenly turned to look at Cao Bu, who was leisurely sipping tea. "Cao Bu! You're too bold!"

"Even if Fang Ruodan's strength is greater than my grandfather's, can she handle two Heavenly Emperors at once?"

"You're asking for death!"

Cao Bu put down his teacup, the tea rippling inside.

He stood up, walked between the two women, put an arm around each, and pulled them into his embrace.

"Who's asking for death?" A wicked smile curled on his lips. "I'll let you know right now who the one truly asking for death is."

As the words fell, the temperature inside the room rose sharply.

One hour.

Two hours.

Three hours later... "Cao Bu, here."

Shen Youye barely managed to prop herself up, took an ancient-looking storage ring from the bedside, and handed it to Cao Bu.

The flush on her face hadn't faded, and her voice was still a bit weak. "This is the yin yang jade I've gathered using all the chamber's channels these past few days. A total of 130,000 pieces—it's the limit of what I could do."

Cao Bu took the ring and swept his Divine Thought into it.

Inside the ring's space, the yin yang jade was piled up like a mountain.

Each piece was as warm as jade, emitting extremely pure Yin-Yang Two Energies.

The two energies intertwined and flowed, forming a small Taiji pattern within the storage space.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Cao Bu gave Shen Youye a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Then, without further delay, he sat down cross-legged.

He lifted his hands, and radiance burst from the storage ring. One after another, the pieces of yin yang jade flew out, circling around him and forming a massive Yin-Yang Qi vortex.

Huan Ying and Shen Youye had exhausted a lot of stamina, but they now pulled themselves together to act as Protectors on his left and right, their eyes filled with curiosity and wonder.

"Buzz—!"

As Cao Bu circulated the Primal Yin-Yang Scripture, the first piece of yin yang jade suddenly shattered, turning into pure Yin-Yang Qi that surged into his body.

It was as if a fuse had been lit; a chain reaction exploded!

"Crack, crack..."

Dense cracking sounds merged into one, like ice crystals bursting.

Tens of thousands of yin yang jade pieces disintegrated almost simultaneously, turning into two majestic torrents that madly surged into Cao Bu's body.

His aura began to climb at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Huan Ying watched with a racing heart, unable to help but lick her slightly dry red lips. "This guy is truly a monster."

A strange light flickered in her eyes; it was hard to tell if it was lingering fear or excitement.

"Otherwise, how could he subdue a demoness like you, and me?"

Shen Youye rolled her eyes at her, and when her gaze fell back onto Cao Bu, it was equally complex and hard to describe.

This man was powerful, overbearing, mysterious, and possessed a lethal attraction, making them hate his shamelessness while unconsciously drowning in it.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the moment the last piece of yin yang jade turned into flying ash.

Cao Bu's cultivation reached its natural conclusion, stepping into the seventh-level World Venerable Peak.

He slowly opened his eyes, and for a fleeting moment, Yin and Yang seemed to flow within them before returning to a deep calm.

"If 130,000 pieces of yin yang jade were given to an ordinary World Venerable, they could probably break through two or three minor Realms. You, on the other hand, only advanced one level," Shen Youye remarked.

"Congratulations, Cao Bu." Huan Ying was sincerely happy for him, her eyes brimming with tenderness. "You're almost catching up to us."

Such tenderness was exactly the manifestation of her complete submission.

Cao Bu looked at the two women and smiled faintly. "The reason I can fight above my level is that my Foundation far exceeds those in the same Realm, which also makes Breakthroughs more difficult."

With that, he stood up and walked between the two women, embracing them once more and feeling the warmth and softness in his arms. "My cultivation has increased, but just now I was so focused on refining that I neglected you two beauties."

"Now, shouldn't we continue the serious business we didn't finish earlier?"

Huan Ying gave him a seductive eye-roll, but her body leaned softly against him. "Thinking about doing bad things right after a Breakthrough—you really are a beast."

Shen Youye's cheeks reddened slightly. She didn't struggle, only whispering, "This is a chamber room in the merchant guild after all; don't make too much noise."

Cao Bu laughed heartily. With a thought, the Time Wheel Emperor Palace opened a gate of light beside him. "Then let's change to a spacious and quiet place."

With that, he held the two women and stepped into the gate of light.

The upcoming cultivation would likely consume more stamina and time than refining the yin yang jade.
