Chapter 9

"Senior Sister, haven't you noticed? The closer the distance, the better the cultivation effect."

Bai Zhou spoke with a straight face and quickly moved closer to Tang Ya, their sitting knees completely pressed together.

But also because of the obstruction of their knees, the distance between the two could only stop there, which made Bai Zhou very disappointed.

"Al... alright..."

Seeing that the distance between the two couldn't get any closer, although Tang Ya was a bit shy, she still accepted Bai Zhou's explanation.

After all, the closer the distance, the more clearly her martial soul could feel the Blue Silver Emperor, and the more obvious that strange change became.

However, Bai Zhou wasn't satisfied with this distance.

Taking advantage of Tang Ya entering deep meditation, Bai Zhou moved his butt, arrived behind Tang Ya, and then slowly moved closer...

"You... what do you want to do again..."

Tang Ya soon noticed something wrong, retreated from meditation, turned her head, and met Bai Zhou's handsome face that was right in front of her.

"Ah—"

Tang Ya exclaimed, almost scared to the point of falling to the ground.

Fortunately, Bai Zhou was quick-witted and hugged Tang Ya's slender waist, pulling her directly into his arms.

"Senior Sister, focus on cultivation."

Bai Zhou still had a serious face, pretending as if it were real.

"How can you expect me to focus like this!!"

Tang Ya broke free from Bai Zhou's embrace, gritting her teeth. This guy Bai Zhou was too bad, actually taking advantage of her so openly. Men really were all big pigs! Although she thought this in her heart, Tang Ya didn't notice that from beginning to end, she only felt shy and annoyed, without producing a single shred of disgust toward Bai Zhou.

Bai Zhou also noticed this point, which was why he was so unscrupulous in testing, testing Tang Ya's bottom line.

"Generally speaking, the first cultivation effect is the best. Senior Sister, don't waste time. Maybe there won't be such an effect in the future as there is today."

Bai Zhou pressed Tang Ya's shoulders, turned her around, and changed the subject.

"Then... just like this, don't move around!!"

Tang Ya gritted her teeth and warned in a low voice.

She actually felt that Bai Zhou was right. The effect of the first cultivation was definitely the best, and the mutation of the martial soul was so clear; this was something she had never felt before.

"I must become stronger, I must take revenge! I must rebuild the glory of the Tang Sect!"

In the end, the pressure in Tang Ya's heart turned into motivation, casting aside distracting thoughts, and she entered deep meditation once again.

Bai Zhou, meanwhile, kept his eyes open, only in shallow meditation, used to assist Tang Ya's hard work.

His soul power basically came from the Wishing System. With just two or three wishes, Bai Zhou could obtain soul power reaching Level 30.

It was just that in Bai Zhou's view, soul power could be cultivated by himself, while the once-a-day wish opportunity was better used for wishing for other treasures, which was more cost-effective. He didn't want to waste a single one.

Now what he wanted most was a cultivation method for "Spiritual Power," slowly accumulating luck, waiting for the next ten-draw.

Bai Zhou cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind and turned to observe Tang Ya.

The black ponytail was incomparably smooth, there was a slight fuzz on the back of her neck, and her skin was fair and delicate. Bai Zhou couldn't help but want to reach out and grab a handful...

Tang Ya's earlobes were slightly flushed, like rubies, crystal clear, making one have the urge to take a bite.

And the girl's faint fragrance that actively entered Bai Zhou's nasal cavity had a unique charm, constantly provoking the hormones in Bai Zhou's body, stimulating Bai Zhou's brain.

However, now was clearly not the time. If he went too far, Tang Ya wouldn't come to him for cultivation next time.

"Bei Bei is really a blockhead, completely not understanding Tang Ya's heart." Bai Zhou sighed secretly in his heart.

Bei Bei's kindness to Tang Ya was naturally from the heart, but Bei Bei didn't understand Tang Ya at all, and even less did he know what Tang Ya wanted.

It was precisely because of this point that Tang Ya later left without saying goodbye, fell into darkness, took revenge herself, her personality became twisted, and in the end, she was manipulated by Evil Soul Masters.

What Tang Ya wanted most wasn't some sweet love; she wanted power, or one could say she wanted revenge.

Bei Bei actually had this strength. As long as he could bring himself to beg Mu En, with Mu En's connections, he could take revenge for Tang Ya with a flick of his finger, but Bei Bei didn't, and Mu En didn't either.

This resulted in the final tragedy.

Perhaps Mu En felt that Tang Ya didn't have much value anymore...

The Inner Court's senior sister, Zhang Lexuan, was also a tragedy; her situation was exactly the opposite of Tang Ya's.

Zhang Lexuan's parents were also killed, and then she was saved by Mu En. Unlike Tang Ya, Mu En believed Zhang Lexuan had value, so he personally took action to slaughter all of Zhang Lexuan's enemies on the condition that Zhang Lexuan become Bei Bei's child bride, which could be described as ruthless and merciless.

It was also because of this action that Zhang Lexuan was tightly bound to Shrek Academy and bound to Bei Bei, unable to escape for the rest of her life.

"Since you don't cherish her, don't blame me for cutting in." Bai Zhou chuckled and thought secretly in his heart.

Bei Bei was stupid and didn't know what Tang Ya was truly thinking in her heart.

Mu En felt that Tang Ya was already Bei Bei's person and didn't have the value for him to take action, so he couldn't be bothered to pay attention, letting Tang Ya suffer in pain. To put it nicely, it was tempering for Tang Ya...

The night passed without incident.

Time passed in a hurry, and soon it was early morning.

Tang Ya slowly woke up from cultivation, feeling completely refreshed. She had never felt so relaxed in her life.

However, she soon noticed the familiar body fragrance coming from the tip of her nose, and also...

"Ah—"

Tang Ya exclaimed and broke free from Bai Zhou's embrace. "You, you, you... I, I, I, I..."

Tang Ya was incoherent, hurriedly checking herself. After confirming that there was no pain anywhere, she finally felt slightly relieved.

"Yesterday, Senior Sister, you actively burrowed into my arms. No matter how I pushed, I couldn't push you away. This can't be blamed on me."

Bai Zhou spread his hands, not lying.

Perhaps Tang Ya was too obsessed with cultivation, and coupled with the attraction of the Blue Silver Emperor, Tang Ya really did actively burrow into his arms last night, and even showed an expression of enjoyment, unable to be pushed away...

Bai Zhou could only "reluctantly" accept it, feeling very helpless.

"I, I... I didn't do it on purpose..."

Tang Ya was a bit more sober now, instantly remembering the strange dream she had last night.

She seemed to have entered a kingdom of Blue Silver Grass, and countless Blue Silver Grasses surrounded her.

The most noble Blue Silver Emperor personally invited her, and then she fell asleep hugging the soft Blue Silver Emperor.

Now that she thought about it, that wasn't the Blue Silver Emperor; that was that bad guy Bai Zhou! Tang Ya's face was now so red it was almost dripping blood; she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

She had really lost face...

However, she had to admit that hugging the Blue Silver Emperor was really comfortable...

"Alright, alright, Senior Sister, I can feel that your soul power has greatly improved. How do you feel?"

Fearing Tang Ya would be shy, Bai Zhou hurriedly changed the subject.

Tang Ya was stunned, then looked inside herself, and the next moment...

"My soul power level actually increased by 2 levels!!"

Tang Ya exclaimed, so excited she hugged Bai Zhou, clearly overjoyed.

"Cough, cough, Senior Sister, it's a bit stuffy..."

Bai Zhou sniffed, coughed dryly, completely not expecting to be ambushed.

"Ah... sorry, sorry, I didn't do it on purpose, I was just a bit excited..."

Tang Ya's face still had a blush that hadn't faded; she was simply too happy.

Because just a few days ago, she had just become a Level 31 Soul Elder, and after entering the Soul Elder stage, she could clearly feel her cultivation speed plummeting. Even cultivating in the academy's mimicry training room, the effect was unsatisfactory.

Tang Ya knew that this was the end of her talent. Cultivation before the Soul Elder stage could barely be made up for by hard work and various heavenly treasures, but after the Soul Elder stage, it depended on talent.

If the talent wasn't good, the cultivation path after the Soul Elder stage would become increasingly difficult.

Fortunately, she met Bai Zhou, the holder of the Blue Silver Emperor, and seized the opportunity. After just one night of cultivation, her soul power level had actually skyrocketed to Level 33.

Of course, she also knew that this kind of skyrocketing could only be a one-time thing; it only happened during the first cultivation. However, the effect of accelerated cultivation still existed.

As long as she cultivated with Bai Zhou every day in the future, she might be able to catch up with Bei Bei's cultivation pace. More importantly, she was one step closer to the day she could take revenge for her parents.

"Congratulations, Senior Sister. But school starts today, I have to go to class. Tonight, I'll treat you to a meal to celebrate."

Bai Zhou bowed slightly to Tang Ya and congratulated her very seriously.

"How can I let you treat me? Senior Sister being able to have such progress is all thanks to you, Little White Junior Brother. Tonight, Senior Sister will treat you to a big meal~"

Tang Ya laughed heartily, patted Bai Zhou's shoulder lightly, and her address for Bai Zhou also changed to "Little White Junior Brother," instantly becoming much closer.

"Good, then see you tonight, I'm going back first."

Bai Zhou smiled slightly and left the cultivation room first.

"This little guy is really my lucky star..."

Tang Ya looked at Bai Zhou's departing back, her eyes curved, the more she looked at Bai Zhou, the more she liked him.

Bai Zhou checked the time; it was six in the morning, still very early. Class didn't start until eight.

Bai Zhou returned to the dorm and found that Wang Dong was still sleeping in.

"Hmm... where did you go last night? You didn't come back all night?" Sensing Bai Zhou's return, Wang Dong poked his head out, looked at Bai Zhou with sleepy eyes, and asked with some dissatisfaction.

This guy Bai Zhou disappeared after eating, and no matter how he looked, he couldn't find him. It was too hateful; he still wanted to ask Bai Zhou for a few bottles of Coke to drink...

"I went to have a heart-to-heart with Senior Sister." Bai Zhou explained casually, then used his martial soul to condense a cage of fragrant steamed buns and fresh milk, placing them in front of Wang Dong's nightstand.

"Heart-to-heart with Senior Sister..."

Wang Dong instantly misinterpreted it, spat lightly, and said, "Pfft, scumbag! At such a young age, you go to that kind of place, shameless!"

"What kind of place? Did you misunderstand something?" Bai Zhou's face darkened.

"Hmph, scumbag, scumbag, scumbag! Pfft!"

After saying this, Wang Dong directly burrowed his head into the quilt and hid. Inexplicably, his heart felt a bit uncomfortable, and he didn't even want to eat breakfast...

He didn't expect Bai Zhou to be this kind of person, going to that kind of place to indulge himself on the first day of school! "You must have misinterpreted it. Come out, explain yourself!" Bai Zhou's mouth twitched, instantly knowing he had been misunderstood.

He didn't deny being a scumbag, but he would absolutely never go to that kind of place. This guy Wang Dong actually dared to slander him! How unreasonable!
