Yun Yun's Shameless Scheme

Xiao Lei watched Yun Yun reach her claws toward his clothes and hurriedly spoke up.

If he let her have her way, how could he keep sitting here? How could he keep watching her while he copied her cultivation?

"Quick, Qing Lin, hold her hands down! Don't let her keep moving around!"

Qing Lin was just as obedient as ever. At his words, she went straight to Yun Yun's side and grabbed both her hands, stopping her from doing anything untoward.

"Phew!"

Xiao Lei was badly shaken. He'd almost seen something not suitable for children!

"Xiao Yi Xian, get me a rope and tie her hands up!"

Xiao Lei was at a loss. He couldn't keep making Qing Lin hold her like that. There were still dozens of minutes until the copying was done, and who knew what wild things Yun Yun might do in the meantime!

Xiao Yi Xian was a little puzzled, but didn't think much of it. She was still very innocent and couldn't imagine certain things.

It seemed perfectly reasonable to her. Yun Yun had just been acting strangely and even trying to take off her clothes, while Xiao Lei was right there!

At Xiao Lei's direction, Xiao Yi Xian tied Yun Yun up without a hitch. The only thing was, the way she tied the knots was a little strange.

"Xiao Lei, where did you learn to tie someone up like that?"

Xiao Lei stammered and said nothing, then made up an excuse to get out of it.

Time passed quickly. With the rope holding her, Yun Yun's movements grew much smaller, and Xiao Lei's pills were working well. Even with Yun Yun thrashing about like that, she showed no sign of waking.

That stimulating sound kept drifting into his ears. With her hands bound, Yun Yun simply rolled around on the ground, while Xiao Lei had no choice but to keep watching.

What a sin! What a sin!

The remaining time on the system's display quickly ran out. Just as Xiao Lei thought everything would end smoothly—

"Mm—ah!"

Yun Yun let out another high-pitched cry, then suddenly opened her eyes!

"Damn!"

Xiao Lei was dumbfounded. The pill he'd made was supposed to force someone into a deep sleep. How had Yun Yun woken up?

"No, that's not it. Even though her Dou Qi is sealed and she can't use it, she's still a Dou Emperor. Her Dou Qi is still there, and the medicine wasn't strong enough!"

The strongest pills Xiao Lei could make were only fourth-grade, while Yun Yun was a Dou Emperor!

Their eyes met. Xiao Lei stared straight at Yun Yun.

[Target: The famed Misty Cloud Sect Master of the Jia Ma Empire.]

[Constitution: None.]

[Please select a copying option.]

The system's emotionless voice rang in Xiao Lei's mind, just as emotionless as the thing Yun Yun was doing right then.

Xiao Lei had assumed Yun Yun would immediately yell, "You lecher!" and draw her sword—but, uh, given her current state, she couldn't exactly draw it!

Instead, "You!"

The first thing Yun Yun did when she saw Xiao Lei was panic. She hurriedly lowered her head, her already flushed face turning as red as a ripe apple, as though it might drip with juice.

Xiao Lei was at a loss.

Only then did Yun Yun come to her senses and notice the rope around her. She realized that her situation seemed rather dire.

"W-who are you? What have you done to me?"

Yun Yun asked in shame and anger, then struggled a few times, only to find that her Dou Qi seemed to have vanished. She couldn't sense it at all.

And as she struggled, the rope beneath her body seemed to tighten even more.

And why did she feel so inexplicably embarrassed?

"Qing Lin, this young lady's awake. Hurry and help untie her!"

Xiao Lei was quick on the uptake and immediately called for Qing Lin. As for untying Yun Yun himself, he'd pass. If he went near her, she'd probably have no qualms about headbutting him.

"Miss, um, you seemed to be having a nightmare just now. You kept moving around, and we were afraid you'd tear your wound open again, so we took the liberty of tying you up."

Xiao Lei could come up with an excuse on the spot!

A nightmare!

Yun Yun thought back over it. Everything from the dream was still vivid in her mind. The moment she recalled it, her head drooped again. She didn't dare look Xiao Lei in the eye.

How could I have had a dream like that?

Yun Yun was mortified, but there was something even more important she needed to deal with.

Qing Lin was quick. She cut the rope off Yun Yun with a dagger. She didn't really understand how it had been tied, after all, and figuring out how to undo it would probably take a while.

Once the rope fell away, Yun Yun felt a rush of relief. But trouble never came alone.

Feeling the dampness in a certain place, Yun Yun summoned her strength and spoke.

"Could you prepare some water for me first? I-I want to bathe."

Seeing that Yun Yun wasn't making a fuss, Xiao Lei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Luckily, it was the shy and innocent Yun Yun who had run into him. If it had been someone else, there was no way he could have explained what had just happened.

Now that Yun Yun wasn't bringing it up herself, then it was as if it had never happened.

"Xiao Lei, go outside first. Qing Lin and I can take care of things here!"

Xiao Yi Xian had finally come to her senses, too. She hurriedly pushed Xiao Lei toward the cave entrance.

"Go stand guard outside. You can come back in later!"

Before Xiao Lei could say anything, she pushed him out of the cave.

"You're abusing an injured person!"

Xiao Lei grumbled, but obediently stayed by the entrance. He really shouldn't go in right now. More importantly, the copying had succeeded, so he should claim that Dou Emperor cultivation first!

Having experienced how powerful a Dou Emperor was firsthand, Xiao Lei had been looking forward to this copy for ages!

"System, give me the cultivation!"

As soon as he spoke, vast Dou Qi appeared out of thin air inside him, surging through every meridian in his body like waves crashing against reefs.

The next moment, Xiao Lei dropped onto his backside. A flood of insights welled up in his mind.

Xiao Lei had leaped straight over the entire Dou Wang realm, after all. That realm was also known as the first great watershed for the strong. Growing wings from Dou Qi wasn't merely the result of having more Dou Qi; it came from a cultivator's natural understanding.

For Xiao Lei to possess Dou Emperor cultivation outright, the system naturally had to grant him those insights as well. Only then could it ensure he wouldn't become a good-for-nothing with nothing but Dou Qi.

Inside the cave, Qing Lin and the others were just as busy. With her Dou Qi gone, Yun Yun couldn't use her Storage Ring. When she tried to change clothes, she found Qing Lin's clothes were too small, so in the end she had to borrow a couple of outfits from Xiao Yi Xian.

After a long while, Xiao Lei finally pushed himself up from the ground.

He took a few pills from his Storage Ring and swallowed them. Only then did the fog in his mind begin to clear a little.

This wasn't Xiao Lei's first time copying someone, so he'd naturally made the necessary preparations.

Feeling a bit more alert, Xiao Lei hurriedly examined his body. The Dou Qi Vortex he'd formed as a Dou Zhe had disappeared at some point—or, more accurately, his entire body had become a new Dou Qi Vortex.

It was because the Dou Qi Vortex was no longer confined to his dantian that Dou Qi could form wings on his back.

"Whoosh!"

With a sound like wind being struck, a pair of pale yellow wings appeared, streaked with hints of emerald green and purple. They were Xiao Lei's Dou Qi wings.

The emerald green came from Xiao Lei's Poison Vine Fire, while the purple came from Purple Fire.

Inside the cave, Yun Yun was startled. Her soul power hadn't been sealed, and she immediately sensed the Dou Emperor aura radiating from Xiao Lei.

"A Dou Emperor? He's a Dou Emperor? But back then, I clearly sensed that his strength wasn't that great!"

Yun Yun had seen Xiao Lei before she lost consciousness and had sensed his aura.

Could I have sensed him wrong because I was so badly injured?

Yun Yun didn't consider any other possibility. They were all too ridiculous.

Feeling his new realm and power, Xiao Lei was overcome with exhilaration. Then he thought of all the other valuable things Yun Yun seemed to have that he could copy.

As Yun Yun bathed, she suddenly felt as though someone was watching her again, and she unconsciously hurried her movements.
