Elder He had advanced to a Dou Ling, which was definitely an exhilarating event.

In the Jia Ma Empire, there were only a dozen or so powerhouses above the rank of Dou Wang; to put it without exaggeration, once outside the Imperial Capital, a Dou Ling could walk sideways without a care.

"Elder He, how are you feeling right now?" Liu Yun asked excitedly.

"Young Master, my body feels better than ever before.

That Meridian Reforming Bone Shedding Pill is simply too heaven-defying; not only did it cure my injuries, but it also stimulated my potential to the absolute maximum.

During the process, it even expelled the medicinal dregs remaining in my body, helping me break through to the Dou Ling rank in one go," He Qingfeng said excitedly.

One had to know that in order to reach the rank of Nine-Star Great Dou Master, he had once taken pills frantically, leaving behind an unknown number of hidden ailments in his body. Now that these hidden ailments were completely eradicated and he had stepped into the Dou Ling rank overnight, it felt practically like a blessing from the heavens.

"Well, regarding your breakthrough to the Dou Ling rank, Elder He, I suggest that we still keep the family in the dark about it. Just continue staying in Wutan City from now on!" Liu Yun said.

"He's very life belongs to the Young Master, so just give the word whenever," He Qingfeng replied readily.

He also felt that there was no need for him to return to the Imperial Capital. Although a newly advanced Dou Ling could make the Mite'er Family buzz with excitement for quite a while, those old fellows were no simple characters, and each of them harbored deep schemes; there was no telling when he might capsize.

He simply could not integrate into the circle of those clan elders, for after all, his surname was not Mittel.

"Alright, then go ahead with what you need to do, Elder He, and get used to your new strength as soon as possible. After a while, we'll go take a stroll in the Monster Mountain Range," Liu Yun said with a smile.

He Qingfeng nodded, then impatiently went off to cultivate.

Liu Yun was in a very good mood. Humming a little tune, he strode toward Ya Fei's room.

Along the way, he met many staff members who greeted him, and he responded to them one by one in a very gentle tone.

"Sister Ya Fei, are you in?" Liu Yun knocked twice and called out.

Before long, with a creak, the door opened, and Ya Fei, dressed in a plain robe, looked at him with a smiling expression.

"Little Brother Liu Yun!" Ya Fei smiled charmingly.

At this moment, Ya Fei was not wearing her signature cheongsam, but rather a loose, plain black robe. Even so, it still could not conceal her curvaceous figure.

Liu Yun took a deep breath. Every time he saw Ya Fei, his first glance was always one of stunning amazement, followed by a deep infatuation. Toward such a vixen, his resistance was practically zero.

"Little Brother Liu Yun!" Ya Fei called out once more, her melting voice seemingly able to seep into one's bones.

Seeing Liu Yun staring at her unblinkingly, Ya Fei could not help but feel a strange sensation arise within her. Her heart blossomed with joy, and she was very happy.

"Sister Ya Fei, you're so beautiful!" Liu Yun stammered.

Ya Fei let out a light laugh, welcomed Liu Yun into the room, and then closed the door. Turning around, however, she found that Liu Yun had not taken a seat, but was instead unscrupulously sizing up her figure.

Before she could even speak, Liu Yun boldly stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.

In close contact, Ya Fei felt her entire body tingle with numbness. She could feel the breath Liu Yun emitted, his burning gaze, and the intense heat radiating from him, causing Ya Fei to lose her focus for a split second.

Liu Yun tightly embraced Ya Fei's waist, for he sensed that Ya Fei was completely weak at the moment; if he did not hold her up like this, she might collapse limp to the ground the next second.

Feeling the lovely creature snuggled in his arms, Liu Yun could no longer control himself. Under the gaze of Ya Fei's hazy eyes, he leaned in gently and kissed her two crimson lips.

Time seemed to freeze in that very instant, and the air in the room appeared to grow humid.

A quarter of an hour later, the two of them lay limp on the floor, holding each other tightly. Ya Fei's pretty face was flushed all the way to the roots of her ears.

"Little Brother Liu Yun!" Ya Fei lowered her head and chided playfully. Honestly, if you're going to kiss, kiss properly, so why use your hands?

"Sister Ya Fei!" Liu Yun looked at Ya Fei in puzzlement.

"Can your hand please..." Ya Fei said tremblingly.

"Uh, right!" Liu Yun smiled awkwardly and reluctantly withdrew his hand.

Ya Fei hurriedly tidied her appearance, her pretty face growing even redder. At the mere thought of the madness just now, she was so embarrassed she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Sister Ya Fei, let me give you a gift. You're definitely going to like it," Liu Yun said with a smile.

He was also feeling somewhat awkward at the moment. One had to know that Ya Fei was a very conservative girl; although every glance and smile of hers could drive people crazy, that allure was superficial after all, and who would dare truly make a move on her?

Therefore, Liu Yun needed to steer the conversation away to defuse the awkwardness between them.

"You don't need to give me a gift. Sister isn't some little girl anymore," Ya Fei chided playfully, clearly very reproachful regarding certain someone's actions just now.

Liu Yun smiled slightly and produced a medicinal herb without any hesitation.

The moment that grass appeared, a refreshing fragrance rushed forth, refreshing one's heart and mind. Every leaf was crystal-clear, and the vague, noble aura it exuded made one's heart yearn for it.

In a trance, the two of them seemed to see an ice-pure and jade-clean fairy, lofty and dignified, beyond reach.

"Sister Ya Fei, this medicine is called 'Narcissus Jade Muscle Grass'. It can only be consumed by people in the Dou Qi stage; it can nourish the tendons and strengthen the bones, clear the Qi meridians, make the skin more delicate, and also allow people with poor aptitude to improve a portion of their aptitude. It's most suitable for you right now," Liu Yun said.

Ya Fei looked at the Narcissus Jade Muscle Grass before her in surprise with her beautiful eyes. Medicine that could improve aptitude was hard to come by, and she had not expected Liu Yun to possess such an item.

Ya Fei knew that the Mite'er Family could never produce such a precious thing, so it could only be Liu Yun's own fortuitous encounter. It seemed this little fellow's secrets were not small!

However, she would not proactively inquire about it, as long as it was beneficial to Liu Yun.

"Little fellow, you shouldn't easily show off such things, or it will easily attract trouble." Ya Fei pushed the Narcissus Jade Muscle Grass back into Liu Yun's arms. There was not a trace of greed on her face, only gratification.

"Sister Ya Fei, this is a gift I'm giving you!" Liu Yun emphasized softly.

"The little fellow is truly good to Sister; I'm very touched, but this thing would have a much greater effect if you ate it. Sister has no cultivation talent, and eating it would easily waste it," Ya Fei said.

Liu Yun knew that Ya Fei didn't lack need for this thing, but rather that she preferred to consider things for him and hoped he would become stronger.

Liu Yun was deeply moved. An older sister figure like Ya Fei generally would not easily fall for someone, but once she gave her heart, she would definitely spoil you to the bone. An older sister's gentleness was quiet like this, and she would always consider things for you.

"Sister Ya Fei, I just said that the 'Narcissus Jade Muscle Grass' can only be consumed by people in the Dou Qi stage, and your little brother here has long since been a Dou Zhe.

Besides, I said this is a gift I specially prepared for you, so Sister Ya Fei must not refuse to accept it, oh!" Liu Yun explained.

Listening to Liu Yun's words, while Ya Fei was touched, her heart was already churning with towering waves. Liu Yun had broken through to a Dou Zhe long ago?

A Dou Zhe under the age of fifteen, or perhaps even younger, and it could be earlier. What did this mean? It meant this little fellow was truly a monstrous talent!

"But this is simply too precious!" Ya Fei looked at the top-quality medicinal herb before her, which didn't seem to belong to the mortal world, and said with much hesitation.

"What of it being precious? Anyway, my things are all Sister Ya Fei's, and as for Sister Ya Fei, your entire person will be mine in the future." Liu Yun embraced her waist once more and teased her in all seriousness.

"Stop messing around, I'll agree to it, all right?" Ya Fei's pretty face was crimson as she spoke tremblingly. She simply couldn't endure such flirtation.

"Alright, Sister Ya Fei, then you can refine it right here, and I'll guard you." Liu Yun smiled.

"I'll take a bath first, then refine it." Blushing with embarrassment, Ya Fei hurriedly walked into the bathroom.

Seeing this scene, Liu Yun understood in his heart, and the smile at the corner of his mouth grew even more brilliant.
