After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

The self in the picture book can barely be considered... decent and assertive.

If Wen Qieyun were allowed to let herself go...

Shi Yan's eyes seemed to daze for a moment.

Not right either.

A girl who would be devoted to him to the death wouldn't do something so outrageous, would she?

Wen Qieyun was probably just indulging in self-congratulation, at most sharing her masterpiece with Wen Ruya.

Do not--

Girls who are obsessed with love are probably all selfish.

Wen Qieyun might not have even shared it with Aya.

That's the only way Shi Yan can comfort himself.

But no matter what!!!

When I return to the Love Sea Demon Sect next time, I will definitely hang this little girl up and let her understand the real ability that has allowed me to roam the Nine Provinces for so long without ever falling down.

Warning: Consume my [Snow Cold Technique]!

No... even if I lose the [Snow Cold Skill], I won't be able to put her down.

Even crying and begging for mercy didn't work.

She should be prepared to be held accountable for selling her picture books.

"Auntie's hobby is really quite unique..." Shi Yan's lips seemed to twitch as she spoke in as calm a tone as possible.

"The love of beauty is human nature," Donghuang Jin said with an air of composure.

Even her way of addressing Shi Yan was nonchalant, "Besides... there's nothing inappropriate about it."

"Food and sex are human nature."

"Everyone has a love of beauty; it's just a natural instinct."

Shi Yan's eye twitched violently. You really are very open-minded.

Donghuang Jin followed Shi Yan to the door of the room, saying, "We old bones can also learn some culture from you young people."

The teacher was speechless for a moment.

Culture... what kind of culture is this?

“Moreover…” Donghuang Jin’s expression suddenly turned serious. She looked at Shi Yan earnestly, “Others may not know, but we do.”

"The reason why your father, Shi Minmo, was able to win the heart of the Holy Maiden of the Love Sea Demon Sect was also inextricably linked to his innate Holy Body."

"It is said that the person is born with a divine body that leaves a fragrance everywhere, and their emotions are outwardly revealed, which is an extraordinary phenomenon."

"To put it simply—" Shi Yan wanted Donghuang Jin to speak in a more human way.

Donghuang Jin looked at Shi Yan and said in plain language, "Your father was a walking Daoist rhyme disseminator back then."

By comprehending the essence of Tao, one may be able to perceive the true nature of the rules of the world.

For any cultivator at the Tribulation Transcending Realm—

Every trace of the rules is priceless.

That is the key to enlightenment.

This is one of the reasons why the tavern owner was able to open taverns all over the country and why countless people were willing to help her.

The wine she poured into Shi Yan's mouth all had, to varying degrees, the effect of helping cultivators in the Tribulation Transcending Realm to understand the rules of the world.

"Although he was only devoted to your mother..."

"But it is undeniable that because of his appearance, the cultivation rate of these generations of the Love Sea Demon Sect has achieved a qualitative leap."

The woman's eyebrows were slightly raised.

If Wen Rumu hadn't acted quickly back then, the gentle Demon Lord of the Love Sea Demon Sect would have been too ruthless in protecting her own.

Shi Yan's father was probably drained dry long ago.

"in..."

"The Gentle Demon Lord should have already firmly broken through to the Enlightenment Realm."

"Your little lover..." Donghuang Jin's gaze towards Shi Yan suddenly became somewhat playful and amused, "Wen Ruya is even more of a natural Dao fetus physique."

"In terms of auxiliary functions... it may not be as good as your father's innate divine body."

"But...it is rumored that those with the Dao Embryo Physique can reliably ascend to immortality."

"Although she herself gave up that power and willingly fell into the demonic path."

"There's nothing wrong with the demonic path," Shi Yan shrugged. "Even without the power of the 'Dao Embryo,' I would still raise her to the Ascension Realm."

"I believe—" Donghuang Jin's affirmative tone even made Shi Yan feel a little incredulous.

"Shi Yan..." she looked at Shi Yan earnestly, "...advanced from the Body Tempering Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm in just a few months..."

"Ten years of honing a sword? The Azure Lotus Sword Sect's 'Hidden Sword Technique'?"

"Those kinds of words can only fool 'children'."

The teacher's heart and lungs almost stopped.

The world is vast, and some things seemed to be beyond her expectations.

“Even the demonic cultivation method of dual cultivation and absorbing stamina can’t achieve that quickly—” Donghuang Jin continued, “to reach the Nascent Soul Realm so quickly, and even continue to advance by leaps and bounds…”

"Aside from being possessed or being reincarnated by a powerful being, the only other explanation is..."

"You have signed a contract with the extraterrestrial demons."

The hairs on one's head stand on end at the teacher's words.

This woman knows too much.

Shi Yan has even begun to make plans.

Donghuang Jin's cultivation level is at the Nascent Soul stage, so it might be difficult for me to force him.

Moreover, there are so many Taiyi Sect members outside.

However, I can use the [Snow Cold Technique] to knock her down first, and keep draining her energy until she is in a state of near unconsciousness, with clear consciousness but unable to wake up.

No... that's not enough.

There is also an equipment room in his own Purple Palace.

You can leave her there and suppress her.

Although... it's a bit excessive.

But there was no other way to protect themselves.

“How could that be?” Donghuang Jin continued to smile. “The last extraterrestrial demon fell into the mortal world a thousand years ago.”

"Moreover, your cultivation began to advance rapidly at the Body Tempering Realm."

"Back then, you couldn't control the extraterrestrial demons at all."

“The demons beyond the heavens…” Shi Yan murmured softly.

The Pure Color Mandala and the Womb Mandala seem to have more screen time than she expected.

"So there's only one truth to this—" Donghuang Jin concluded, "Your physique is even stronger than your father's."

"even..."

"Even more exaggerated than your father was back then."

"The girls you've been in contact with all seem to be making rapid progress."

The teacher remained silent.

She couldn't very well say... that this rapid breakthrough came at a price, could she?

It takes a lifetime to pay the price, there's no going back, and it's even... the price that Donghuang Jin almost had to pay just now.

“Many people want your paintings,” Donghuang Jin chuckled, dropping a bombshell on Shi Yan. “They believe that your paintings must contain something similar to ‘Daoist charm.’”

“There’s no such thing…” Shi Yan couldn’t help but shake his head.

"No...it really is." Donghuang Jin's affirmative look left Shi Yan stunned.

"I've been stuck at the peak of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm for a very, very long time," Donghuang Jin said softly. "But... ever since I was with Xiao Li..."

"Yes, it was after Ah Li's sister saw your scroll."

"I can clearly feel that my bottleneck is starting to loosen."

Shi Yan's eyes were twitching wildly.

"May I make a presumptuous request?" Donghuang Jin didn't even bother to open Donghuang Li's door, staring straight at Shi Yan.

"You...you go first." Shi Yan had completely given up on the women of the Taiyi Sect.

What does it mean when the bottleneck starts to loosen?

What strange and eccentric gentlemen are you all from the Taiyi Sect?

Donghuang Jin spoke in the most serious tone, saying something that made Shi Yan's head spin.

"that is..."

"Could you take off your shoes and socks later..." Donghuang Jin even used a more respectful term for Shi Yan, "so that I can ponder this a bit."

There won't be a third person!

"Just let me admire it."

Shi Yan's expression was so strange it was on the verge of collapse, but the woman still acted as if she wasn't attracted to his beauty at all, and that she was only interested in enlightenment.

Donghuang Jin looked regretful. "It seems that everyone has different insights into the parts of Shiyan's painting."

She simply changed all the ways she addressed people.

"Xiao Li prefers her back..."
