After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

【Charm: Graceful and Ethereal】

[Cultivation Level: First Stage of Qi Refining Realm]

【…】

"You have taken the 'Qi-Inducing Pill,' and your cultivation has broken through to the first level of the Qi Refining Realm."

"..."

"You used the 'White Tiger's Aura' as a breakthrough material, and you obtained the acquired fortune 'Yearly Evil God'."

"..."

In the game, players are most likely to defy fate when they break through to a higher realm.

Awaken your potential through materials, or perhaps gain so-called "postnatal fortune" by grasping the power within them.

Compared to "innate fortune," "acquired fortune" is also easier to obtain and choose the direction of growth.

Shi Yan once broke through realms in the game and obtained the "acquired fortune" - "wind, flowers, snow and moon". He also passed the witch's test, changed fate, and obtained "innate charm".

From then on, Yuan began a life of living off her husband.

...

The log's prompts are the least deceiving; Shi Yan's fingertips lightly touched the tiger-skin rug on the ground.

In other words... is that saber tooth really related to the "White Tiger"?

She clicked on the introduction of "the evil god of the year".

This acquired talent allows her to exert mental pressure and inflict additional damage on villains whose magical attributes outweigh their righteous attributes.

A pretty useful skill.

It might come in handy soon.

Shi Yan looked at the girl kneeling in front of him, and Yunyi suddenly grabbed the light gauze on her skirt.

She seemed to have a vague idea of ​​what was going to happen.

Shi Yan had already put his arm around her shoulder.

The girl's breath was almost touching.

To be honest... this is the first time Yunyi has had this feeling, but she doesn't resist it.

She... was even somewhat looking forward to it.

Especially when their own owners are still fast asleep.

Wait! Yunyi's nerves suddenly snapped. She didn't know when... the girl's soft snoring in the room had stopped.

Yunyi tried to support Shiyan's shoulders, but it was too late.

The girl tilted her head slightly forward and placed a kiss as light as a feather on her cheek.

Clearly... clearly, she was just a girl she had met, and to Yunyi, she was practically a child.

but--

My heart is inexplicably pounding.

Shi Yan instructed Yunyi, saying nothing more than to take good care of herself and Hua Xiangrong.

She got up to leave.

Inside the girl's boudoir, Yunyi slowly turned around, her bright golden eyes staring straight at her, filled with grievance.

-

-

-

Leaving the girl's boudoir.

At the door of Hua Xiangrong's boudoir, Shi Yan also saw a girl in a black dress with a face exactly like Yunyi, sitting cross-legged on a washboard, looking melancholy.

Hearing the noise, she hurriedly changed from sitting to kneeling.

After seeing that it was Shi Yan, he sat back down cross-legged.

Unlike Yunyi's cold and aloof demeanor, the girl in the black dress even looked a bit silly.

Shi Yan knew that she was Yunshang.

Another girl who serves Hua Xiangrong.

After greeting the girl, Shi Yan quickly left the depths of Yinghua City.

Unlike games where there's only a cutscene CG.

As she left, Shi Yan could hear all sorts of comments about herself from the men who were out partying.

"'He' came out of Miss Xiangrong's room?"

"You're kidding... Miss Xiangrong has already been captured!?"

"Don't you even know who they are?"

“That’s the young master Shi, the number one youth in Nanjun City. Not only is he handsome and charming, but his patience in hiding his sword for ten years also destined him to be different from us.”

In short, it's either praise or sarcasm.

However, Shi Yan didn't care much; she just wanted to leave quickly.

At the same time... she swiped her character attribute panel again with her right hand.

[Name: Shi Yan]

【…】

[Cultivation Level: Qi Refining Realm, Second Stage]

Whether it's dregs or scraps.

Shi Yan now only wants to become stronger, stronger, and even stronger.

But... she still had some doubts.

A mere farewell kiss... could it really allow me to break through a small realm?

The speed of improvement is even more outrageous than Wen Ruya's.

It might even give Shi Yan the illusion that Yun Yi might actually be in the Nascent Soul stage.

Without thinking too much, Shi Yan ignored the character attribute panel and wanted to get back to the Shi family as soon as possible.

As a result... in the market, in front of the wine shop, Shi Yan suddenly saw Shi Luren drinking heavily.

The outcome was something Shi Yan never expected.

The moment Shi Luren saw Shi Yan, his eyes went from astonishment to surprise, and then to panic.

He didn't even want the wine anymore, and staggered towards Shi Yan.

"My father and brothers are not good..."

"Slow down," Shi Yan said to Shi Luren with a hint of annoyance. "There's no rush."

"How can we not be anxious!" Shi Luren was extremely anxious. "The Fourth Elder wants the Shi family and the Ming family to form a marriage alliance."

"What does that have to do with us?" Shi Yan looked at the panting boy in front of him.

"He..." Shi Luren was so anxious that he could hardly breathe.

"he..."

"He wants to marry Shi Xia off to him!"

"Gan!"

Part 45 The Waiting Bride Wants to Be Officially Married [Second Update]

"Gan!"

Unable to contain his curses, Shi Yan pushed Shi Luren aside and ran wildly towards his small courtyard.

Where did that Fourth Elder come from?! Why doesn't he marry his grandson off to him?

A hint of murderous intent flickered in Shi Yan's eyes as he transformed into a whirlwind and swept towards his own courtyard.

After entering the Qi Refining Realm, Shi Yan's spiritual energy had completed a preliminary small cycle. At the same time, she was finally able to draw upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, refine it, and make it her own.

Unlike the Body Tempering Realm, where one can only refine spiritual energy through food and nourishment...

To put it in slightly simpler terms, it means—

"Your MP (Magic Points) cap has been significantly increased."

"Your MP (Mana) recovery speed has been greatly increased."

This is the biggest difference between the Body Tempering Realm and the Qi Refining Realm: "endurance".

Therefore, it was almost the best option for Shi Yan to subdue Shi Luren with a single move.

With the added blessing of various innate fortunes, Shi Yan was able to use dozens of "Swaying Leaf Rolls" in a row without taking a break.

Once she finds a suitable ultimate skill manual that can further enhance her movement techniques and reduce their "cooldown time," she will be able to initially achieve Infinite Wind Transformation.

Even if the Shadow Demon Lord himself arrives, Shi Yan will be confident of escaping.

But... she probably didn't expect that.

The Shadow Demon Lord's true form is dead, and he died at the hands of Yunyi, who, in Shiyan's opinion, was "only" at the Nascent Soul stage.

Along the way, the cousins ​​of the Shi family were all somewhat astonished as they watched Shi Yan's sometimes swift and unpredictable figure.

They had never seen Shi Yan so furious.

I never imagined... that Shi Yan had already broken through to the Qi Refining Realm.

A gust of wind swept away the newly sprouted leaves, and in the blink of an eye, Shi Yan had already landed in his and Xia Xia's small courtyard.

She slowly walked towards Xiaxia's room.
