"Ding! Congratulations, Host Brother, for completing the mission: sleeping with Xiao Wu."

"Ding! Congratulations, Host Brother, for obtaining a copy of the 'Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record.'"

"Ding! Congratulations, Host Brother, for obtaining a random Hidden Weapon: Soul Chasing Life Taking Yama's Post."

Still lost in sleep, Cao Yan heard a sweet female voice in his mind. It was the system's voice, as pleasant as ever.

"Soul Chasing Life Taking Yama's Post?" Cao Yan could not help crying out inwardly. His heart pounded wildly with delight.

As a transmigrator, he naturally knew just how terrifying the power of this Hidden Weapon was.

In the original work, Tang San had used this very weapon to turn the tables against a stronger opponent and kill Shi Nian, a Soul Saint. He never expected System Sister to reward him with such a treasure. This was just too awesome.

Didn't that mean he had another treasure to protect himself with?

"Host Brother, this system will now impart the various techniques recorded in the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record into your mind. Please experience them carefully."

"Alright."

Cao Yan sank into his thoughts and carefully sensed the massive amount of information System Sister was pouring into him. The feeling was warm. It was as if a current of heat flowed through his body from below, spreading into his limbs and bones, leaving him indescribably comfortable.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host Brother, for successfully comprehending the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record's techniques: Purple Demon Eye, Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, Mysterious Jade Hand, Mysterious Heaven Skill, and various Hidden Weapon techniques."

"Wait, System Sister, are you sure I've comprehended them successfully? Why do I still feel unfamiliar with these things?" Cao Yan asked anxiously.

"Host Brother, this system has merely helped you gain an initial grasp of the essentials of these techniques. If you wish to master them completely, you will still need to practice diligently." The system gave a playful laugh, its voice sweet.

"No way, I still have to cultivate these things myself? Shouldn't you be handling all of this for me?"

"Host Brother, Tang San cultivated them step by step back then. Besides, these techniques embody the painstaking efforts of the Tang Sect's predecessors. How could you possibly learn them all at once so easily? It is already quite good that this system has helped you gain an initial understanding." The system spoke irritably.

"Ahem, sorry. I got too excited. Don't worry, I'll cultivate properly and won't let down your expectations." Cao Yan coughed awkwardly and grinned.

"That's good. Please work hard, Host Brother, and strive to unify the continent as soon as possible."

"Mm." Cao Yan nodded.

Now, he had initially grasped how to use the Tang Sect's techniques. As long as he wanted to, Cao Yan could use Mysterious Jade Hand right away. However, it could only achieve basic effects, such as isolating toxins.

After all, Tang San had also gradually comprehended these tricks through slow cultivation after transmigrating in the original work. Although Cao Yan's Soul Power Level was a little higher, it was naturally impossible for him to immediately bring these techniques to the level of complete mastery.

Everything required a process.

Cao Yan was not worried. With the system in hand, he only needed to cultivate gradually according to its instructions. And with how smart he was, he had to learn faster than that idiot Tang San, right?

Though he only had one martial soul, he possessed such exceptional advantages. He could even obtain something like the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. Unifying the continent would be as easy as turning his hand over.

Once he developed those top-tier Hidden Weapons in the future and gradually subdued the various powers, even Spirit Hall would be unable to fight him.

That was what a qualified transmigrator ought to do.

But he was not in a hurry yet. His most pressing task was to win Xiao Wu over. Not only that, he wanted to completely destroy Tang San's confidence and make it impossible for him to get by.

In the world of Douluo Continent, there could only be one protagonist. With Cao Yan around, Tang San could only be a little brother, never able to rise again!

"Hey! Where do you think you're touching?" Just as Cao Yan was dreaming about his grand ambitions, an angry voice interrupted him. It was Xiao Wu's voice.

Xiao Wu had raised her soft little hand, her face flushed with embarrassment as she prepared to slap Cao Yan across the face.

When Cao Yan opened his eyes, Xiao Wu's fierce appearance gave him quite a fright. He hurriedly said, "Xiao Wu, what are you doing? Are you rebelling? How can you lay hands on your boss?"

"You still have the nerve to say that! Look where you put your hand!" Xiao Wu said with a red face, her little cheeks burning hot.

Hm?

Taking a closer look, Cao Yan finally understood what was happening. His hand was resting somewhere it should not have been, while his legs had Xiao Wu firmly pinned beneath him, leaving her unable to move at all.

Damn, no wonder it felt so soft. It wasn't a dream!

No wonder it had felt so real!

"Ahem, Xiao Wu, I didn't do it on purpose. Do I look like that kind of person?" Cao Yan gave an embarrassed smile, but his eyes suddenly lit up. Then, with astonishing speed, he took advantage of Xiao Wu before hurriedly withdrawing his hand. His movements were as smooth as flowing clouds, completed in one fluid motion!

As he pulled his hand back, Cao Yan sighed helplessly inwardly, still feeling somewhat unsatisfied.

Unfortunately, Xiao Wu's figure had not fully developed yet, so the sensation was not particularly good.

Even so, he still felt a trace of satisfaction. After all, taking advantage of Xiao Wu right in front of her gave him quite a sense of accomplishment.

To win over the rabbit, he had to be shameless.

He had undoubtedly kept a good grasp of the limits in that regard.

"You! You touched me again!" Xiao Wu bit her cherry-red lips, her eyes wide as her little hand struck Cao Yan's face without mercy.

As a mature hundred-thousand-year-old rabbit, she had naturally learned how to protect herself while out in the world.

"Xiao Wu, you've changed. You actually dared to hit your boss." Cao Yan was not truly angry. Xiao Wu was only six years old, after all. How much strength could she possibly have? Her little hand felt soft against his face, and he did not feel any pain at all.

"It's all your fault. You're the one in the wrong. Who knew you had that kind of habit even when you were asleep? I spent the whole night taking care of you for nothing." Xiao Wu's voice softened somewhat. Though she still sounded aggressive, her heart had already begun to soften.

For some reason, when her palm struck Cao Yan's face, she felt an inexplicable sense of regret.

"Fine, I forgive you. Your boss won't blame you." Cao Yan waved a hand, looking magnanimous.

Anyway, Xiao Wu would become his wife sooner or later. There was nothing serious about a wife hitting her husband. He would get used to it slowly.

"Alright, then you're not allowed to touch me randomly when you sleep from now on, understand?" Xiao Wu nodded and said with a solemn expression.

In truth, Xiao Wu quite liked sleeping with Cao Yan. At the very least, she stayed warm every night that way.

What displeased her was that Cao Yan's hands were always restless after he fell asleep, and he often kicked off the blanket too. One look was enough to tell that he did not know how to take care of himself.

"Alright, I promise you." Cao Yan agreed immediately. In any case, he could not control his body once he was asleep. If he really did something excessive again, could anyone blame him for it?

It was his body taking advantage, so what did that have to do with Cao Yan?

Could someone as honest as him possibly be a bad boy?

"Alright, I believe you. We should go to class. Wang Sheng and the others have already left, and we're the only two left in the dormitory."

"Alright, let me put on my clothes first," Cao Yan said, looking around, but he could not find his clothes anywhere.

"Put on your head. You never took off your clothes last night."

With that, Xiao Wu grabbed Cao Yan's hand and pulled him straight toward the classroom.
