Ma Xiaotao's pupils abruptly widened.

Her pretty face flushed crimson, and even her ears were tinged red.

This!

...Wait, if even Xiao Yan's clothes, which could completely suppress her, had been burned away, then...

As the night breeze blew, Ma Xiaotao suddenly felt a chill all over her body. Even without looking, she knew her own clothes had long since vanished with the flames.

The Phoenix Flame within her immediately stirred restlessly.

But after her brief daze, Ma Xiaotao let out a long breath. Fortunately, he had not woken up yet.

Then, as the older sister, she naturally had to help check whether his body had been injured during that cultivation just now.

Blinking, she carefully inspected Xiao Yan from head to toe. After confirming that nothing was wrong, Ma Xiaotao raised her gaze again—only to meet a teasing pair of eyes.

Ma Xiaotao:!!!

His gaze drifted downward slightly, sweeping over Ma Xiaotao's proud, exquisite body, far more breathtaking than that of any beauty Xiao Yan had known. He blinked.

Her fair body was tinged pink, its sleek curves exceptionally pleasing to the eye, and the dazzling headlights made it impossible to look away.

Smacking his lips, Xiao Yan casually refined a pair of sunglasses and put them on, then leaned closer to examine her carefully.

Those long, shapely legs, full and supple, along with that peerlessly beautiful face carrying a trace of coy annoyance.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

He took back what he had said before. The scenery here was simply too beautiful. Having found such joy, he no longer missed the Dou Qi Continent.

To enjoy such blessings, even if he were offered a proud dragon maiden, a pure immortal fairy, a gap-moe mature beauty, a master-disciple pairing, or twin sisters, Xiao Yan would still be willing!

"You!!!" Unable to endure it any longer, Ma Xiaotao glared with her beautiful eyes. Looking at the huge face leaning toward her, she was so angry that she laughed instead.

You thought wearing sunglasses meant I would not notice where you were looking, huh?

Your damn face is practically buried in my chest!

"What? You're allowed to look at me, but I'm not allowed to look at you?"

"You even smashed my martial soul out of existence. This big sister hasn't settled the score with you yet. How are you planning to compensate me?"

Xiao Yan lowered his sunglasses slightly and curled his lips.

Ma Xiaotao's chest heaved violently. Seeing Xiao Yan's smile grow even broader, she immediately clenched her silver teeth.

Was something wrong with the way this had unfolded? Why was the man she fancied like this?

Only then did Ma Xiaotao think to take out some clothes from her storage soul tool, only to realize that she had not brought any.

"Give me a set of clothes!" Her chest rose and fell sharply. Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Ma Xiaotao turned her head aside, pursed her lips, and turned faintly red all over.

"You chickened out?" Xiao Yan's eyes gleamed.

"Who chickened out?!" It would have been fine if he had not said that, but the moment he did, Ma Xiaotao flew into a rage. She abruptly turned back, grabbed Xiao Yan by the shoulders, and declared that she had never chickened out in her life!

With her emotions surging, she immediately stopped caring about anything else.

Soul power suddenly circulated through her body. Before Xiao Yan could react, Ma Xiaotao sprang into action, forcefully pushing him down and straddling his waist.

"Fuck, what are you doing?!" Xiao Yan's eyes widened as he hurriedly adjusted his position, preventing her from sitting down fully.

"What else?" A dangerous gleam flashed through Ma Xiaotao's eyes.

Xiao Yan: "..."

Though he had been drained quite a bit before, he had merely been toyed with in the palm of her hand. There had been some verbal sparring at most; it amounted to nothing more than rubbing without going in.

He was actually a shy, good boy.

That reaction immediately made Ma Xiaotao raise an eyebrow. She twisted her waist, her delicate hand fiercely gripping Xiao Yan's handle. When Xiao Yan shuddered, she instantly revealed a smile.

"Oh? Your mouth is so filthy, yet you're actually still a virgin?"

Xiao Yan: ...

This was bad. The unity of his essence, energy, and spirit had made him overly sensitive. Every sensation from every part of his body was transmitted clearly into the depths of his soul.

"How do you want me to compensate you?" Drawing circles over Xiao Yan's chest with her index finger, Ma Xiaotao blew into his ear. "How about giving myself to you?"

"Cough, cough... No need." Xiao Yan awkwardly shifted his waist, quietly preparing to transform into his Dharma Body and use Fire Release to pull away first.

Before he could finish speaking, however, Xiao Yan froze.

"Hiss... Can we still make peace?"

"Make peace? At a time like this, are you joking?"

With a savage grin, Ma Xiaotao flicked out a strand of soul power to tie up her hair, then bent down.

"Young man, you wouldn't want me to eat you clean and take away your precious first time, would you?"

"That wouldn't be impossible..."

"Hmm?!"

"I'll listen, all right... Huh? Why are you taking out my jelly? And popping candy too? Are we eating them now?"

"Wait..."

Ohohoho—

Three days later.

A cave dwelling rose from the flat ground in the wilderness.

"Sister Xiaotao, can this really awaken a martial soul?"

Looking at Ma Xiaotao sitting before him in a duck-sitting pose, Xiao Yan's eyelid twitched.

"Stop talking. Keep eating."

Ma Xiaotao rolled her eyes, her face displaying an especially delighted smile.

Xiao Yan: "..."

Those were all my lines!

Xiao Yan suddenly began to suspect that perhaps his method of transmigrating had been a little off. Could it be that fate had truly set him up?

Although his romantic luck was absurdly good, why did it seem like he was always the passive one?

Rolling his eyes, Xiao Yan finished the noodles Ma Xiaotao had made, then cooked a bowl of noodles for her as well.

After eating, Xiao Yan watched Ma Xiaotao circle around him as she drew a magic formation on the ground.

Soul power was somewhat similar in nature to dou qi.

But it was considerably weaker.

Over the past two days, Xiao Yan had roughly figured out how the combat power corresponded. It was not far from what he had guessed before.

As a real world, once the numbers were rationalized, the Peerless Tang Clan era was not as weak as he had imagined.

A newly advanced Dou Emperor was roughly equivalent to an ordinary Title Douluo. A peak Dou Emperor who had touched upon the power of space was probably at the level of a Limit Douluo. As for a Dou Zong, perhaps that was the level of a Quasi-God or Demigod?

And if that was the case, then this trip would not have been in vain.

While he was thinking, Ma Xiaotao finished her preparations.

Ma Xiaotao had always felt that Xiao Yan was deceiving her. How could he possibly lack a martial soul? Yet after investigating, she discovered that Xiao Yan actually had a way to make his martial soul disappear.

Rather than believing that Xiao Yan had no martial soul, Ma Xiaotao believed that he simply did not have one right now.

Ordinarily, awakening a martial soul for an ordinary person did not require so much trouble, but Ma Xiaotao always felt that Xiao Yan would not be so simple.

Therefore, she had prepared the most intricate martial soul awakening formation recorded by the academy.

She had even used special guiding materials refined by Xiao Yan.

"Then shall we begin?" Blinking, Ma Xiaotao possessed her martial soul, and six soul rings pulsed around her body.

"Let's begin." Xiao Yan nodded, opening his mind and allowing Ma Xiaotao to guide him.

In only a moment, the wisp of Natal Flame in Xiao Yan's dantian was stirred. As it circulated, it actually activated on its own the state of Samadhi True Fire, in which the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit underwent ultimate sublimation.

Xiao Yan only felt the power hidden within him being completely drawn out. The entire Sea of Bitterness instantly boiled. The gains from these past days were integrated, the Divine Bridge spanned the Sea of Bitterness, and the Other Shore was within reach.

Boom!!!

The entire world seemed to tremble as specks of starlight and flame gathered together.

A magnificent figure formed from countless flames emerged behind Xiao Yan. Its might swept across all directions as vast divine radiance bloomed. The surrounding heavens and earth transformed into a domain of fire, and ripples spread outward from it as their center. Wherever they passed, all flames bowed in submission!

Martial soul awakened—Flame Emperor!

"Y-you... What level are you?!"
