Chapter 72: Snowy Night

Night.

In the sleeping quarters, the two sisters were having an intimate conversation. One was a captivating little demoness, while the other was a peerless beauty with natural charm.

“Royal Sister, I have encountered a difficult problem.” Zhao Yunji propped her chin with her hand, looking troubled.

“What problem, Royal Sister?” Zhao Qingmeng asked.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhao Yunji slowly spoke, “If you had to abandon pride and dignity to have a chance at becoming an emperor, would you be willing?”

Although Zhao Yunji’s question was implicit, Zhao Qingmeng, having lived two lives, could easily decipher its meaning. Abandoning pride and dignity clearly implied submitting herself to serve Lin Qi’an. ‘So, Royal Sister knows that he possesses the Dao Physique! No wonder she doesn’t want to break off the engagement.’

‘But Royal Sister, you should know that merely giving up pride isn’t enough for Lin Qi’an to accept you. After all, I personally tried and ended up being spanked bare-bottomed. Who can I complain to about that?’

Zhao Qingmeng shook her head and said, “Royal Sister, although I don’t understand what you’re saying, I believe that as the number one fairy of the Canglan Dao Domain, the daughter of the Tai’an Emperor, you, who countless men admire, must never abandon your pride, let alone your dignity!”

“Remember, no one in this world can make you submit; others must submit to you!”

Zhao Yunji pondered for a moment and said, “But my dream is to become an emperor...”

“With your unparalleled talent, Royal Sister, you will naturally become an emperor in the future. I believe in you!”

‘Hmph, these words sound so good,’ Zhao Yunji thought, ‘But why is my sister so eager for me to break off the engagement? Could it be that she also knows about Lin Qi’an’s physique?’

In Lin Qi’an’s sleeping quarters, he was watching two Child of Destiny becoming sworn brothers. He was also amused by Zhao Qingmeng filling her sister’s head with misleading ideas.

With a creak, the door opened.

Under the bright moonlight stood a dreamlike, beautiful woman in a white dress. Her bright eyes and white teeth, delicate eyebrows, and snow-like skin made her look like a fairy. The white dress fluttered gracefully, and her exquisite features were illuminated, revealing her slender legs.

Su Xueni seemed like a fairy descending from the moon. She had dressed up specially tonight, with red makeup and a captivating fragrance.

“Your Highness.”

“Su Xueni, what brings you here so late?” Lin Qi’an asked as she closed the door and approached him, her lips slightly parted and her cheeks flushed.

“They... they...” Ran Yuwei stuttered, unable to finish her sentence.

“In just one night, breaking through a major realm is incredible,” Zi Lianyou sighed, though she still held great hopes for future opportunities.

“Ran Yuwei, I think I should be ahead of you in line, right?” Zi Lianyou teased.

“What are you talking about? I never intended to be with the Crown Prince...” Ran Yuwei blushed in denial. “But if the Crown Prince likes me, I won’t refuse,” she quickly added.

“You’re just putting up a front...”

In the Heavenly Palace, the Sword Emperor stood on the balcony, gazing at the night sky. Beside him, his wife remarked, “I didn’t expect Qi’an to reach the Transcendent Realm so quickly. His cultivation speed is astonishing!”

Though they couldn’t see the golden dragon exclusive to Lin Qi’an, they could still see the surge of spiritual energy during the breakthrough.

“That boy doesn’t care about that little girl’s feelings at all, hahaha!” The Sword Emperor laughed heartily.

“She wanted to break off the engagement? Perfect timing for Qi’an to slap her in the face! That’s more like it,” his wife said with satisfaction.

—

Lin Qi’an’s cultivation skyrocketed!

From the Heaven Dominion Realm to the Transcendent Realm.

Transcendent Realm Stage 1.

Transcendent Realm Stage 2!

Transcendent Realm Stage 3!

Transcendent Realm Stage 4!

He broke through a major realm and four minor realms in one night, something that would take ordinary people hundreds of years and even prodigies several years and Lin Qi’an did it in one night.

As for Su Xueni, she also achieved a major realm breakthrough, opening ten spiritual apertures in the process. Her ability to absorb spiritual energy doubled, making her ecstatic. The power of being the first to share in the Dao Physique’s blessings was truly marvelous!

Compared to this, the Tai’an princess seemed to fall short, she thought with a smirk.

‘I will definitely repay the Crown Prince’s kindness and maintain my status...’ Su Xueni thought.
