42: Chapter 42 Let's be together!

"In this world, only Martial Aunt treats me the best. She has never looked down on me, and even sends me Medicinal Pill and encourages me to Cultivate hard..."

"I cannot abandon Martial Aunt! If we are to die, let us die together!"

"Good morning, Sister Yang Yao. This is the signature breakfast from Zuixiang Pavilion. Would you like to see if it suits your taste?"

"Sister Yang Yao, do you still not understand my feelings?"

"I like you! Never mind the purple jade vine; I can give you everything I have!"

"Actually, from the very first moment I saw you, I fell in love with you at first sight..."

"All these years, I have always been thinking of you, missing you, and admiring you..."

"In just a few years, I will definitely be able to become a Sect Elder. By then, both of us will be Sect Elders, making it legitimate. If we are together, no one will oppose or criticize us."

"Sister Yang Yao..."

"Sister Yang Yao..."

With teary eyes, Yang Yao saw bits and pieces of her time with Ji Taichang constantly appearing before her eyes.

All the events of the past were already engraved in her heart!

Although she verbally rejected Ji Taichang, that feeling of affection had been constantly growing in her heart, never ceasing!

Ji Taichang's burning and direct love melted within her heart!

A Genius youth with a bright future was willing to sacrifice his life for her twice!

What deep affection this was!

[Ding! Detected Yang Yao's Favorability increased by 10 points. You can obtain 10% of the Sect Master of Liehuo Sect's Cultivation/Ability. Please choose.]

[Yang Yao's Favorability: 85 (When Favorability reaches 100, a surprise will occur!)]

The wonderful System notification sound rang out again, filling Ji Taichang with great joy!

He carried Yang Yao and ran wildly for over a hundred miles in one breath.

During this time, that crocodile did not catch up, clearly its injuries were not light.

Ji Taichang found a hidden and remote cave, rushed in while carrying Yang Yao, and then, appearing exhausted, collapsed directly onto the ground.

To be precise...

He collapsed on top of Yang Yao.

Their bodies were pressed tightly together, able to feel each other's breathing and heartbeats.

That soft and warm feeling made Ji Taichang feel completely comfortable.

But Yang Yao did not think that much. Her eyes were filled with heartache and worry, and she quickly turned over and pulled Ji Taichang into her embrace.

Yang Yao fed Ji Taichang a few healing Medicinal Pills, then turned him over, wanting to help him treat the wounds on his back.

In an instant.

Ji Taichang's face was buried, and he almost couldn't breathe!

"Xiao Chang, you... eh?"

"Why are there no wounds?"

Yang Yao lifted Ji Taichang's clothes and was stunned for a moment.

Ji Taichang's back was as smooth as new; she couldn't see any wounds at all.

"Hmm... I have soft armor inside my clothes. It must have been the soft armor that blocked the crocodile's attack."

Ji Taichang said with a muffled voice.

Yang Yao looked carefully and indeed saw a piece of soft armor in the lining of his clothes. Only then did she heave a long sigh of relief.

She swallowed a few healing Medicinal Pills, sat cross-legged on the spot to perform her Cultivation Technique, and then began to treat her own injuries.

After her internal injuries improved slightly, she suddenly felt a slight pain in her heart.

Yang Yao's eyes widened instantly, and her pretty face flushed red in a "swoosh"!

"Xiao Chang! You, you..."

Yang Yao's heart pounded violently. Feeling a strange sensation spreading throughout her body, she quickly pulled Ji Taichang up from her embrace, her face full of shy anger.

Ji Taichang took the opportunity to cup her face and looked affectionately straight into her eyes: "Sister Yang Yao, I like you!"

"I have said it before, I am willing to give you everything of mine, including my life!"

"Sister Yang Yao, can we be together?"

Ji Taichang's firm and affectionate gaze made Yang Yao's heart accelerate again, joy and shyness welling up in her heart.

She lowered her head, a little afraid to look into Ji Taichang's eyes, but a soft murmur came from her red lips: "Mm..."

After receiving Yang Yao's affirmation, Ji Taichang was overjoyed!

He immediately hugged Yang Yao and kissed her deeply.

"Mm..."

Yang Yao's body went soft, and then she hugged Ji Taichang.

...

The bright moon climbed into the sky, the roses outside the window swayed gently, and the quiet night was so charming.

A night of spring, not to be spoken of to outsiders.

...

[Ding! Detected Yang Yao's Favorability increased by 15 points. You can obtain 20% of the Sect Master of Liehuo Sect's Cultivation/Ability. Please choose.]

[Yang Yao's Favorability: 100 (When Favorability reaches 100, a surprise will occur!)]

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a surprise gift package! Do you want to claim it?]

...

Late at night.

Yang Yao fell into a deep sleep in Ji Taichang's arms, the flush on her pretty face not yet faded, a shy and joyful smile on the corner of her lips.

Ji Taichang looked at the beauty in his arms, his heart filled with mixed emotions, the smile on his lips impossible to suppress.

He carefully dressed Yang Yao and placed her on the ground.

Afterwards.

Ji Taichang quietly left the cave and silently recited in his heart: "System, claim the Cultivation!"

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 30% of the Sect Master of Liehuo Sect's Cultivation!]

Boom—

In an instant, a force of extreme magnitude emerged from thin air, surging through the Meridians and acupoints all over his body, like a landslide or a tsunami!

That power was so vast that it caused Ji Taichang's Aura of Cultivation to soar step by step!

His black hair stood on end, his Golden Core expanded rapidly, and one red fire pattern after another appeared. His whole body emitted an invisible and terrifying pressure!

At this moment, all the Yao Beasts within a radius of hundreds of miles prostrated on the ground, feeling the oppression and trembling from their Bloodline and Soul!

Even that crocodile lying on the ground with a painful expression shivered all over, immediately knelt down, and trembled in fear!

Golden Core Stage Fourth Level!

Golden Core Stage Fifth Level!

Golden Core Stage Sixth Level!

...

Golden Core Stage... Ninth Level!!

When Ji Taichang absorbed all that power, his Cultivation soared to the Golden Core Stage Ninth Level!

Not only that.

His mind was also flooded with a large amount of insights regarding the Blazing Fire Art, as if he had bitterly Cultivated this Cultivation Technique for hundreds of years, already having reached the Major Achievement stage!

Swoosh!

Ji Taichang opened his eyes, blazing firelight flickering in his pupils, his body surrounded by raging fire, his Aura majestic, like a young Fire God descending to the world!

His Cultivation was unprecedentedly powerful, his Soul was extremely solid, and his Divine Sense detection range had increased to nearly fifty miles!

Golden Core Stage Ninth Level Cultivation was enough to establish a Sect in the Great Yu Dynasty; he was definitely a real powerhouse!

"What a wonderful and powerful strength... Hehehe!"

Ji Taichang clenched his fist hard, and a surging, astonishing firelight bloomed, illuminating the night sky!

Feeling the unprecedented powerful strength within his body, the corner of Ji Taichang's mouth tilted up, impossible to suppress!
