Women Only Interfere with My Sleep!

Women Only Interfere with My Sleep!

Time passed!

The days went by one after another.

Ever since Bai Ye's remarks on Tongtian Peak, an oppressive atmosphere seemed to weigh on the hearts of many throughout the Qingyun Sect.

Many disciples went out less often, while Xiao Yicai of Tongtian Peak began a thorough investigation into the Caomiao Village massacre.

Several dozen days passed. Let alone any progress, they had not uncovered even a single clue.

In the end, Xiao Yicai only discovered that a fierce battle had indeed taken place in Caomiao Village, a clash between two immensely powerful experts.

Perhaps Caomiao Village had been massacred because of the battle between those two peak experts.

In the end, the matter was simply dropped, because there was no evidence that any Qingyun Sect expert had been involved.

Bai Ye was not particularly surprised by the news.

After all, the aura of the Divine Sword Lightning Control True Art he had mentioned back then had been nothing more than nonsense. How could the Divine Sword Lightning Control True Art possibly leave behind any aura?

He had merely read some of the original story and made it up to put some pressure on that fellow Cang Song.

Bai Ye continued living a carefree life, drinking every day and taking strolls around Dazhu Peak.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host. The Monthly Check-in System has activated. Check-in may now begin.

The system's voice rang out.

Bai Ye opened his slightly drunken eyes. He had not expected another month to have passed already.

"Begin the check-in!"

Ding...

Congratulations, Host. This month's check-in has begun.

Ding... Congratulations, Host. You have successfully checked in for Ghost Dao Arts.

Ghost Dao Arts: A secret art combining the Miao Borderlands' Gu techniques with the yin-yang tome, Soul-Burying Phantom Body. It was incomparably strange and sinister; once one provoked the Ghost Dao, it was equivalent to struggling through endless nightmares.

Ghost Path Art was fantastical and unfathomable. Those who cultivated the Ghost Dao to its pinnacle could even possess the miraculous ability to bring back the dead. It was an extremely terrifying art.

At the same time, because Ghost Dao Arts were so mysterious and unfathomable, this divine art placed extreme demands on one's aptitude. Ordinary people would find it almost impossible to even enter its doorway in their entire lives.

When Bai Ye heard that the system had checked in Ghost Dao Arts, a flicker of interest appeared on his face.

"These Ghost Dao Arts are no simple matter!"

"According to the original plot, there were only a handful of people in the entire world of Zhu Xian who could cultivate Ghost Path Art—fewer than five, practically speaking. As for anyone who could cultivate it to the pinnacle, there was no one."

Bai Ye muttered to himself.

In the story, after Bi Yao died, all hope of reviving her had rested on this so-called Ghost Path Art.

If not for an unexpected mishap, Zhang Xiaofan truly would have revived Bi Yao from death. From that alone, the horror of Ghost Path Art was clear.

Bringing the dead back to life—such a miraculous art was virtually unheard of.

"Claim the Ghost Dao Arts!"

Thinking of this, Bai Ye spoke with anticipation.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host. Ghost Dao Arts are being distributed...

Ding... Ghost Dao Arts have been successfully distributed!

As the system's voice rang out, the cultivation methods for Ghost Dao Arts surfaced directly in Bai Ye's mind.

After spending a quarter of an hour sorting through the Ghost Path Art in his mind, Bai Ye finally understood it all.

He slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of delight appeared on his face.

The Ghost Dao Arts contained three Ghost Dao divine abilities, each possessing formidable power.

Soul Control Art: It could control the souls of the dead and command them to fight for the user.

Soul Extinction Art: An art capable of attacking souls. It could extract a person's soul and deliver a fatal blow.

Heaven's Mandate Art: A divine art capable of forcibly pulling a soul back from the Nine Underworlds and bringing someone back to life. However, the resurrected person would only have one month to live; after that month, they would die and vanish completely.

All three of these Ghost Dao Arts were extremely terrifying techniques.

If he could master them all, Bai Ye's strength would increase considerably.

"Still, Ghost Dao Arts have incredibly demanding cultivation requirements. Even I would find it difficult to cultivate these three Ghost Dao techniques to the major accomplishment realm in a short time."

Thinking of this gave Bai Ye a headache.

Ghost Path Art was a cultivation path that targeted one's soul aptitude. Only those with an exceptional affinity for souls possessed great talent for cultivating it. Otherwise, there would not be so few Ghost Dao cultivators in the world of Zhu Xian.

However, Bai Ye only sighed for a moment.

Now that he had these three Ghost Dao techniques, as long as he cultivated diligently, he would succeed someday. After all, his clone divine ability could help him cultivate.

With that thought, Bai Ye came back to himself, and a smile returned to his face.

"Gulp, gulp~!"

He half-lay on the roof of the small courtyard once more and continued drinking.

Before long, Bai Ye sensed someone approaching.

"Hmph!"

"Drunkard Senior Brother, your old flame has come looking for you!"

Tian Ling'er's voice instantly rang beside Bai Ye's ear.

Hearing that, Bai Ye slightly opened his eyes. His expression still carried a trace of drunkenness, but when he saw the visitor, he froze.

Who else could be standing behind Tian Ling'er but Lu Xueqi?

Why was this woman here?!

"Little Ling'er, if you keep spouting nonsense, I can't guarantee your pants-wetting incident will stay a secret."

Bai Ye immediately looked at Tian Ling'er with a hint of "killing intent."

Tian Ling'er's smile stiffened. Filled with embarrassment and indignation, she immediately ran away.

"You're ruthless!"

After Tian Ling'er left, only Bai Ye and Lu Xueqi remained in the courtyard.

Looking at Lu Xueqi, Bai Ye was somewhat dazed. Compared to five years ago, Lu Xueqi had matured considerably. Her features already made it clear that she would definitely grow into a stunning beauty.

However, the cold aura around her was much like Grandmaster Shuiyue's, as though someone owed her money. Bai Ye did not particularly like that.

"So it's Junior Sister Lu. We haven't met in five years. Not only have you become more beautiful, Junior Sister Lu, but your strength has also improved greatly."

Bai Ye smiled faintly as he looked at Lu Xueqi.

"I heard that Senior Brother Bai Ye traveled the martial world some time ago?" Lu Xueqi's beautiful eyes trembled slightly before she looked at Bai Ye and asked.

"Yes."

Bai Ye nodded.

"That's good."

Lu Xueqi nodded faintly in reply.

???

Are you really forcing awkward small talk with me?!

"Gulp, gulp~!"

Bai Ye tipped back his head and took another large gulp of wine. Then, with a faint flush on his face, he looked at Lu Xueqi. "Does Junior Sister Lu have some business with me?"

"I heard that during your travels, Senior Brother Bai Ye, you also made quite a few female confidantes."

"I hope you will not waste your talent. I only came to tell you that I have already mastered the Divine Sword Lightning Control True Art. I hope you will take our upcoming Seven Peaks Tournament seriously."

"I will definitely defeat you!"

Looking at Bai Ye, Lu Xueqi bit her red lips, her voice carrying a trace of coldness.

Which bigmouth told her that?!

Hearing this, Bai Ye cursed inwardly. Is this how you people ruined my reputation?

"Junior Sister Lu, is that all you came here to say?"

"My cultivation speed has not slowed down. I doubt I will disappoint you."

Bai Ye smiled faintly, took several more drinks, and let out a few wine-scented burps.

The smell of alcohol spread through the small courtyard. Lu Xueqi wrinkled her delicate nose, then looked at Bai Ye, who seemed rather drunk, and felt inexplicably annoyed.

Clang~!

A treasured sword instantly appeared in Lu Xueqi's hand, radiating a powerful aura.

Its sheath and hilt were entirely sky-blue, their color vivid and bright, with faint ripples of light flowing across them. It was truly a supreme divine weapon of the nine heavens.

Tianya Divine Sword!

"Senior Brother Bai Ye, I will definitely defeat you!"

Once the Tianya Divine Sword appeared, it naturally carried an overwhelming presence.

Yet Bai Ye was clearly somewhat drunk. He slumped drowsily onto the roof, his breathing even and steady. He had obviously fallen asleep.

Looking at the already sleeping Bai Ye, Lu Xueqi felt even more irritated. She even began to doubt herself. Was this guy really the powerful Bai Ye from back then?!

Without saying anything more, she put away the Tianya Divine Sword, gave Bai Ye a deep look, and left.

For some reason, her heart had been unusually unsettled today.
