Wrapping things up
Don't even think about it!
Bai Yushan refused without hesitation, his tone extremely impatient, "You're disturbing my sleep in the middle of the night, get out of here, get out of here! We can talk about body tempering during the day!"
He's currently in a crucial period of consolidating his cultivation level, so he doesn't have the leisure to act as her human power bank in the middle of the night.
Besides, why should she get to do the tempering whenever she wants? Doesn't Bai Yushan have any pride?
"Daytime?"
Gu Yue curled her lip, her tone tinged with smugness, "Don't I have classes during the day?! Besides, what's more convenient at night than during the day? Let me tell you, you don't have a choice tonight."
You have to take it whether you want it or not!
She was determined to experience the body tempering effect of electric current today, and she wouldn't give up until she achieved her goal.
"Hmm..."
Zi JI, lying on the bed, frowned, her eyes still closed. Her voice, tinged with the languor and impatience of someone just waking up, was muffled as she said, "Bai Yushan! Aren't you annoying? Let me sleep a little longer!"
She didn't even need to look up; just from the electric heat emanating from him, she knew who it was. This kid had pulled this stunt every single time for the past three months, and she was already immune to it.
"Sleep? What's the point of sleeping? It's a complete waste of precious time."
Bai Yushan not only didn't stop, but instead gently pinched her, his tone incredibly irritating, "Get up, get up. My strength has improved again this week. Let's go outside and spar a bit. Today, let me test your true level!"
Zi JI suddenly opened her eyes, her clear purple pupils still hazy from just waking up. She was immediately amused and exasperated. She threw off the covers and sat up, glaring at Bai Yushan: "See my true abilities? You really dare to say that! You're just a defeated opponent of mine, what are you pretending to be?!"
"A scholar should be treated with new respect after three days of separation, do you understand?"
Bai Yushan took two steps back and raised his chin. "I've already unleashed my Second Soul Skill; things are different now."
He was determined to see what level Zi JI's Soul Power cultivation was today— Soul Douluo? Or Titled Douluo?
As he spoke, a thin, purplish-black bolt of lightning shot from his fingertip, crackling and crackling. As the arc of electricity danced, a small piece of the metal lampshade on the bedside table melted instantly, and the molten iron dripped down, burning small dents into the tabletop.
"Second Soul Skill, Lightning Refinement Shaping." Bai Yushan smiled. "It can melt metal and shape weapons; it offers a lot of variety in combat."
As Zi JI looked at the melting metal, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Having fought Bai Yushan for so long, she naturally knew how bizarre his power system was. It wasn't Soul Power, nor Soul Skill, yet its power was ridiculously great, and its self-healing ability was even more abnormal. Now, with the addition of a Soul Skill that could melt metal, his combat ability had definitely increased significantly.
"Interesting." Zi JI, now wide awake, rolled out of bed and stretched her wrists and ankles. "But I'll tell you, you're not good enough to measure me!"
She was originally of the bloodline of Hell Demon Dragon, and was naturally warlike. In the Star Dou Great Forest, she was either in seclusion cultivating or handling clan affairs, so she couldn't find such a suitable sparring partner.
Bai Yushan is invincible, recovers quickly, has strange moves, and improves every time. Fighting him is incredibly fun.
If Gu Yue hadn't warned her not to kill him, she sometimes got carried away and wanted to go all out to test the limits of this kid.
Hidden deep in the mountains outside Eastsea City lies a basin surrounded by three mountains.
The surrounding mountains and forests were lush and green, but this basin was barren, with scorched black soil and crisscrossing cracks everywhere. Even the rocks had been blasted into dust. Not to mention any living creatures, even the insects underground were dead beyond any hope of survival.
This place is Bai Yushan and Zi JI's weekly "monster-hunting dungeon".
They come here every week for a fight, every punch lands hard, lightning flashes, and demonic flames rage. After three months of fighting, this once beautiful valley has been blasted into a cratered, lunar-like landscape.
At this moment, the two stood facing each other at opposite ends of the basin.
There were no opening remarks, no harsh words, and they didn't even need to exchange glances for a second.
The battle erupted instantly!
Buzz--
A sudden burst of electricity erupted around Bai Yushan, Lightning Release Armor instantly covered his entire body. Crackling arcs of purple-black electricity danced wildly, and the air crackled with electricity. Almost simultaneously, his Electromagnetic Clarity was fully activated, and the surrounding airflow, energy fluctuations, and even the subtle tension in Zi JI's muscles were all clearly reflected in his mind.
Lightning Flash Step!
Lightning exploded beneath his feet, and he transformed into a blur, moving so fast that he was reduced to a streak of purplish-black lightning as he hurtled straight toward Zi JI!
The right hand forms a claw, a tiger's roar that Mountain-Howling Rock-Crushing Claw!
The claws, coated with lightning condensed to the extreme, were sharp enough to tear through fine steel, heading straight for Zi JI's face.
His attack was a deadly strike from the very first move, without any hesitation.
Zi JI stood still, her face calm, until the claw wind rushed towards her and lightning struck her, then she slightly turned her head. The moment she raised her left arm, dark purple dragon scales covered her entire forearm like a tide, gleaming coldly, as she took the claw head-on.
Bite--!
The sharp, metallic clang was so loud it hurt your eardrums, and sparks flew from the tips of the claws.
The instant she blocked, Zi JI swept her right leg out horizontally, the wind whistling and the air crackling, carrying a faint demonic heat, as it struck towards Bai Yushan's waist and abdomen.
It was fast and ruthless, giving the opponent no chance to react.
But Bai Yushan had anticipated this.
Electromagnetic Clarity locked down every muscle movement of Zi JI. The moment her leg moved, he had already unleashed the Deer Form: Wave-Skimming Mist-Treading Steps. His toes touched the ground, and his figure lightly and gracefully darted out, narrowly grazing the leg wind that swept past, tearing a gash in his clothes.
While in mid-air, he flicked his left hand, sending three Lightning Ball flying in a triangular formation straight towards Zi JI's face!
"A trivial skill."
Zi JI snorted coldly, opened her mouth, and spat out a ball of dark purple Hell Demon Flame to meet it.
Boom!
Lightning and demonic flames collided fiercely in mid-air, the blinding ball of light exploding instantly, the Impact sweeping in all directions, instantly blowing up a layer of dust from the ground, and sending pebbles flying everywhere.
Before the flames and smoke had even dissipated, a dark figure darted out from the epicenter of the explosion!
Taking advantage of the explosion as cover, Bai Yushan sprinted along the ground, his ape-like movements reaching their peak, elusive and unpredictable, circling around Zi JI at high speed. Lightning constantly shot from his fingertips, and he launched surprise attacks from time to time, targeting cunning blind spots like the heart, throat, and waist.
Jingle bells!
Zi JI stood rooted to the spot, her arms flailing wildly, her dragon scales gleaming coldly in the sunlight, deflecting every single attack.
After blocking more than a dozen attacks, she raised an eyebrow slightly.
This kid's speed, reaction time, and move execution have improved significantly since last week!
"Just hiding isn't enough!"
Suddenly, Zi JI spoke, her right hand forming a claw, demonic flames surging, and her speed instantly doubling!
With a claw that shot out so fast that only a blur remained, it headed straight for Bai Yushan's shoulder!
Bai Yushan's expression changed slightly.
In the Electromagnetic Clarity, the opponent's claw shadow instantly magnified, so fast that his nerves couldn't keep up!
He gritted his teeth, strained his waist, and twisted his body at an angle that defied the laws of the human body, but he was still a fraction of a second too slow.
Sizzle--
Bai Yushan struggled fiercely, trying to throw the person off him. "I'm still recovering from serious injuries, and you're still exploiting me. Don't you have any conscience?"
He struggled fiercely, but Gu Yue was prepared. Elemental power quietly circulated, gently yet firmly pressing down on his shoulders, preventing him from getting up easily.
Bai Yushan hasn't fully recovered yet. He could break free with a full-force attack, but that would be too noisy and might attract Zi JI, making things even more complicated.
Seeing his fierce resistance, Gu Yue's eyes darted around, and she had an idea.
She slowly leaned down, getting very close to Bai Yushan, her warm breath gently brushing against his ear, carrying a faint scent of grass and trees.
The bright moonlight slanted in through the window, falling on her delicate face and outlining her soft features, making her cunning eyes appear exceptionally bright. Her usual aloofness vanished, replaced by a vibrant human touch, making her breathtakingly beautiful.
Unfortunately, Bai Yushan remained completely unmoved. His heart was filled only with Na'er and Bi Ji; no matter how beautiful other women were, they were no different from roadside stones in his eyes.
"Bai Yushan."
Gu Yue's voice was very soft, with a slow, leisurely laugh, her tone full of control, "You don't want Na'er to know that we have any intimate relationship, do you?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yushan's struggling movements stopped abruptly, and then he resisted even more fiercely.
"Are you trying to slander me?!"
Bai Yushan's voice was full of anger, "Don't give me that! Na'er won't believe your nonsense!"
How could the relationship between him and Na'er be so easily soured by a few words from outsiders?
Upon hearing this, Gu Yue's lips curled into a smug smile, confident of victory.
"Yeah?"
She spoke slowly, her tone resolute, "Right now, only I can contact Na'er across the entire continent, and only I know where she is. Tell me, does she believe you or me?"
In one sentence, he directly hit Bai Yushan's weak spot.
He couldn't find Na'er, and he really couldn't contact her directly. If Gu Yue really spoke carelessly in front of Na'er, making up all sorts of nonsense, Na'er, with her innocent nature, might really misunderstand and cause her unnecessary trouble.
Bai Yushan pursed his lips, staring intently at Gu Yue, his eyes filled with disbelief. He truly hadn't expected this woman to be so shameless, resorting to such despicable means to threaten him.
"Are you some kind of Japanese devil?!" Bai Yushan blurted out angrily, his tone full of contempt.
Gu Yue frowned, not understanding what he was saying.
"What little devils?" She tilted her head in confusion, then didn't bother to investigate further, assuming it was just Bai Yushan cursing in frustration. Seeing that Bai Yushan still wouldn't give in after dragging his feet for so long, Gu Yue lost her patience.
She reached into her nightgown pocket and pulled out a small soul-guided phone, waving it in front of Bai Yushan. The screen was lit, and the camera was pointed directly at the two of them at a tricky angle, guaranteed to spark the imagination.
"Look," Gu Yue chuckled like a cat that had just stolen some cream, her tone leisurely, "If we took a picture of us in this position and sent it to Na'er... what do you think she'd think?"
"No!" Bai Yushan's expression changed, and he tried to reach out to snatch it, but Gu Yue dodged him a step ahead.
He was both angry and anxious. It wasn't that he was really afraid Na'er would misunderstand, but he didn't want Na'er to be upset for no reason, and he didn't want this trivial matter to affect their relationship.
After a few seconds of silence, Bai Yushan deflated like a punctured balloon, closed his eyes tightly, and two lines of "humiliating" tears slid down his cheeks. His voice was heavy and aggrieved. "I promise you... don't tell Na'er."
A true man can bend and stretch; it's just a matter of tempering the body, it won't cost him anything!
There will be plenty of opportunities in the future; we can settle accounts with this woman slowly!
"That's more like it."
Gu Yue smiled with satisfaction, put away her phone, and patted him on the shoulder. "A wise person knows when to yield. If you had cooperated earlier, it would have been fine."
What followed was perfectly logical.
Gu Yue pressed Bai Yushan's palms down with both hands, urging him to activate the electric current. Bai Yushan reluctantly mobilized the Bioelectricity within his body, slowly channeling it into Gu Yue's body through his palms.
Same recipe, same taste.
As soon as the current entered his body, an intensely pleasurable sensation, where every cell in his body seemed to be rejoicing, swept over him instantly. Gu Yue shuddered and was immediately immersed in the sensation.
It opens.
In the other room, Zi JI was fast asleep when she vaguely heard strange noises, instantly waking up. She frowned, sat up, and listened carefully.
The sound was coming from Bai Yushan's room, and... it was the Lord's voice?
Zi JI's heart skipped a beat, her curiosity overcoming her sleepiness. She tiptoed out of bed, walked to the door, and quietly opened it a crack, peeking towards Bai Yushan's room.
The night was dark, and nothing could be seen, but the intermittent, strange cries could be heard even more clearly, one after another, carrying an irrepressible sense of exhilaration.
Zi JI's cheeks flushed bright red in an instant, and she immediately conjured up a whole bunch of inappropriate images for children.
She quickly pulled back, slammed the door shut, and leaned against it, her heart pounding wildly, her ears burning. She stumbled back to bed, pulled the covers over her head, curled up into a ball, her mind a jumbled mess.
"My lord... how could my lord be so... shameless!"
Zi JI mumbled softly under the covers, her voice barely audible, filled with shock and embarrassment.
As the queen of the Hell Demon Dragon Clan, a small and insignificant clan, Zi JI had always been abstinent and devoted to cultivation for the sake of her clan's strength. Later, when the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue awoke, she followed Di Tian and others to assist Gu Yue. Having little experience in her life, she had never heard of such a scene before, and she panicked, her breathing becoming rapid.
Logically speaking, she should have been furious, feeling that Bai Yushan had blasphemed his master, and should have rushed in to beat Bai Yushan up again. But for some reason, just thinking about Bai Yushan's face made most of her anger dissipate.
The image of the boy involuntarily surfaced in my mind—he was only nine years old, yet he stood tall and straight, 1.8 meters tall, with a handsome and refined face. When he laughed, he was unrestrained and exuberant, but when he was serious, his eyes were sharp and piercing. He was exceptionally heroic, and his whole body exuded an indomitable and unruly spirit.
