Chapter 18: (Bonus) Bei Bei's Godly Assist, Breaking the Bottom Line

Bai Zhou was familiar with the path; he knocked on Tang Ya's training room door and was quickly let in.

"Sister Xiao Ya, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Seeing Tang Ya's current complexion and the undried tears in the corners of her eyes, Bai Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to hold her small hand, his face full of concern.

"I'm fine, just feeling homesick..." Tang Ya didn't pull away; instead, she pulled Bai Zhou to the bedside to sit down and even gently leaned her head on Bai Zhou's shoulder, her eyes filled with irrepressible sadness and nostalgia...

"Xiao Bai, I actually envy you all... I envy that you have family... have friends... while my parents were killed by thieves..."

Tang Ya spoke slowly, recounting her own past, tears hanging in the corners of her eyes once again.

This kind of thing, she had only told Bei Bei; Bai Zhou was considered her second confidant...

Seeing this, Bai Zhou naturally played the role of Tang Ya's listener perfectly. When Tang Ya reached the painful parts, Bai Zhou gently pulled her into his arms, comforting her softly...

"That Iron Blood Sect is truly too much. Sister Xiao Ya, when you go for revenge, you must bring me along. I will never let anyone who dares to bully my Sister Xiao Ya off the hook!" Hearing about the Iron Blood Sect, Bai Zhou was also filled with righteous indignation, standing up for Tang Ya.

Hearing Bai Zhou's words, the emotion in Tang Ya's heart was almost overflowing.

Especially after Bei Bei's perfunctory words earlier, which could be called the MVP of assists, Tang Ya's favorability toward Bai Zhou skyrocketed instantly.

"No, I can't implicate you. This is my own business."

Although Tang Ya was moved, this was her own business, and she wouldn't let Bai Zhou take risks.

After all, Bai Zhou was just her junior brother and wasn't even a member of the Tang Sect; he had absolutely no obligation to help her.

"What are you saying, Sister Xiao Ya? As long as you say the word, I'll go straight to that Iron Blood Sect and slaughter them all!" Bai Zhou promised, patting his chest.

"Pfft~ Alright, alright, I'm satisfied just knowing you have that heart~"

Tang Ya was also amused by Bai Zhou, and combined with pouring out her heart, the knot in her heart was mostly untied.

The pressure also lightened accordingly.

Tang Ya wiped her tears, then gently stretched, fully revealing her curvaceous figure before Bai Zhou, the aura of a youthful girl rushing toward him.

"Gulp..." Bai Zhou swallowed his saliva, clearly a bit overwhelmed.

It wasn't that his willpower was weak, but having been pressed against Tang Ya for so long, his hormones were almost overflowing; it was normal to take a few extra looks...

"What are you looking at, you little rascal!"

Tang Ya's face turned red; she hurriedly covered her chest and reached out to pinch Bai Zhou's arm lightly.

"Sister Xiao Ya is too beautiful; I can't help but want to look more~" Bai Zhou said honestly.

"Smooth talker~"

Tang Ya rolled her eyes lightly, naturally knowing that this little rascal Bai Zhou wasn't honest.

She suddenly thought of something, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, she gave Bai Zhou a charming look, and huffed coquettishly: "I'm in a very good mood today, so I'll reluctantly allow you to hold me while we cultivate..."

"Really?"

Bai Zhou's eyes lit up. This was different from yesterday; yesterday he was the one who initiated, but this time Tang Ya was the one who took the initiative.

Clearly, there was more room for maneuver.

"Don't you dare move around!"

Seeing Bai Zhou like this, Tang Ya felt a sudden panic in her heart and hurriedly warned him.

"Okay~"

Bai Zhou agreed immediately.

Soon, the room was filled with a misty blue light, and two clusters of different colored Blue Silver Grass began to intertwine, constantly absorbing the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the room...

Tang Ya sat cross-legged, Bai Zhou hugged her slender waist from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, sniffing the fragrance of Tang Ya's hair...

Tang Ya was probably used to it; although her face still had a blush, she was at least much more relaxed, and her ears were only pink, not red to the point of dripping blood. Clearly, this deep exchange today had caused their relationship to warm up rapidly.

"It's ticklish, you idiot..." Tang Ya pinched Bai Zhou's arm lightly, whispering coquettishly.

This guy Bai Zhou, leaning so close, was blowing ticklish air onto her neck, making it impossible for her to calm her mind and cultivate.

"Oh, oh..."

Bai Zhou hurriedly moved his head away.

It was like this yesterday, and it was still like this today. Bai Zhou felt very uncomfortable; this definitely wasn't Tang Ya's bottom line...

Only by breaking the bottom line every day could progress be accelerated.

Bai Zhou felt that if he made a move, Tang Ya's reaction might be very intense. His gaze darted over Tang Ya's body and soon landed on those slightly pink earlobes...

Bai Zhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately stretched his neck over, aimed at Tang Ya's left earlobe, and bit down lightly...

Tang Ya:!!!!!!! "What are you doing..."

Tang Ya's delicate body trembled violently, glaring at Bai Zhou with a face full of shame and anger, but there was no sign of anger at all; instead, there was more disbelief and a trace of fear.

Bai Zhou naturally discovered this too; as long as she wasn't angry, that wasn't the bottom line. Bai Zhou didn't hesitate and leaned his face directly toward Tang Ya's slightly trembling cherry lips...

"Mmph!!!!!!!!"

Tang Ya's beautiful eyes widened instantly; she never expected Bai Zhou to be so bold. This was her first kiss!!! She hadn't even given Bei Bei a chance yet, and now, unexpectedly...

Tang Ya's first reaction in her heart right now wasn't anger, but feeling sorry for Bei Bei...

Immediately followed by shame and anger, still with no sign of actual anger.

"You..."

Tang Ya used force and finally pushed Bai Zhou away.

"How could you bully me like this..."

Tang Ya finally spoke, her tone devoid of anger, filled only with deep grievance.

She had clearly compromised and let Bai Zhou hold her; why did Bai Zhou still deliberately push his luck and take her first kiss? This was clearly taking advantage of the situation; he was too bad! "Sister Xiao Ya..."

Bai Zhou didn't explain; instead, he gently reached out to hug Tang Ya's slender waist, his other hand supporting the back of Tang Ya's head, pinning her against the wall of the cage formed by the Blue Silver Grass, just looking at her quietly...

Nothing needed to be said; his eyes were enough to interpret everything.

"No... absolutely not!"

Tang Ya understood the meaning in Bai Zhou's eyes, bit her red lips, and dodged his gaze, not daring to continue looking at Bai Zhou.

Bai Zhou might have thought Tang Ya misunderstood; he just wanted to satisfy his appetite.

Tang Ya didn't run away, which clearly meant the bottom line could be broken. Bai Zhou leaned over and pressed up against her again.

Tang Ya: Mmph...!!

This time Tang Ya didn't refuse, because she was desperately protecting the hem of her clothes, defending the final barren land.

However, Bai Zhou had absolutely no intention of that; he was focused on fighting with Tang Ya's tongue.

After a long while, Tang Ya finally realized that she seemed to have been played by Bai Zhou; this guy just wanted to taste the sweetness and didn't want to...

For a moment, Tang Ya didn't know whether to feel relieved or disappointed...
