In an instant, the fluttering in his heart vanished.
He stared blankly at Xiao Mengyao, yet inside, he sighed quietly, thinking to himself, You really have no idea just how terrifying Feng Aotian, the protagonist, is at bending people!
Even a Witch, a super beauty whose heart is already dead, could be turned over by him, let alone you, little Xiao Mengyao. Otherwise, why would people call him Wan Ci Wang?
“Alright then! You two rest in my bed for a while. I’ll step outside for a bit.”
Not arguing further—since they said ‘one bed’, then them crawling into his bed also counted as ‘one bed’—he simply wouldn’t be there himself.
This wasn’t cheating, just a little wordplay!
With that, Ye Ping’an prepared to leave.
However, just as he had this thought, he was immediately stopped by Xiao Mengyao and Ningyue.
To Ye Ping’an’s astonishment, he was treated as if he were the vulnerable one about to be taken advantage of, and the two of them, like bullies overpowering the village flower, shoved him onto the bed.
It wasn’t that Ye Ping’an didn’t want to run, but his skills were pitiful compared to Xiao Mengyao, who was at the Qi Refining Thirteenth Layer. He had no strength to resist and was easily forced onto the bed.
Ye Ping’an accepted that he couldn’t win against Xiao Mengyao, but for some reason, he felt Ningyue’s strength had suddenly increased too. Her arms wrapped around his so tightly he couldn’t break free.
Was it that he was unwilling to use force? Hmm! It must be that. No matter what, Ye Ping’an refused to admit his strength was less than that of an ordinary girl.
Since he couldn’t resist, he might as well enjoy it.
So, the three of them ended up lying together, with Ye Ping’an naturally in the middle, Xiao Mengyao on the left, and Ningyue on the right.
‘Whew.’ As soon as Ningyue, who was closest to the candle, blew it out, she burrowed right back under the covers.
Fortunately, Ye Ping’an had not yet awakened his powers.
Even sleeping with the two girls wouldn’t lead to anything like ‘three years of luck, death penalty not a loss’, or, heaven forbid, a fatal mistake that would end up with someone’s life on the line.
The three of them were safe… like hell they were.
When the sound of rustling reached his ears, Ye Ping’an knew trouble was coming. Sure enough, as soon as the sound stopped, a soft, warm, and fragrant body pressed up against him, clinging tightly.
Every softness was within his grasp. Ye Ping’an’s face flushed, and he coughed lightly, “Ahem, Ningyue, why aren’t you wearing any clothes?”
“I’m used to sleeping naked!” Her voice was casual and sweet, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
“Na…naked? I’ll do it too.” Xiao Mengyao, not to be outdone, immediately started undressing.
“Wait, you two…”
“Senior brother, you should join us too!” “Young master, you should too!” Before Ye Ping’an could finish, the two girls spoke over him in unison.
And then, Ye Ping’an was stripped bare.
The three of them pressed together—whether it was Xiao Mengyao’s soft body or Ningyue’s already shapely figure—both were stimulating Ye Ping’an, making him cry out inwardly that he couldn’t take it.
Especially Ningyue; compared to before, she had grown even more, causing Ye Ping’an to instinctively turn his body toward Xiao Mengyao’s side.
Yet, for some reason, Ye Ping’an felt this sensation was familiar, as if he experienced it every night in his dreams!
But, it must be just an illusion! Ye Ping’an thought to himself.
“Senior brother, did you put a stick in the bed? I feel a bit uncomfortable.” Just as Ye Ping’an was pondering that familiar sensation, Xiao Mengyao suddenly asked in confusion.
After all, she and Ningyue had just worked together to strip senior brother—so why would there still be a stick?
“Ah! That…that’s my finger. See, it’s fine now!” Ye Ping’an broke out in a cold sweat. Luckily, as he sensed the impending arrival of Feng Aotian and the terror of a sword at his neck, he slipped back into sleep.
“Oh, it’s your finger! But it still feels kind of different.” Xiao Mengyao couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
“Ahem, let’s get some sleep! We’ve been traveling for days, we should rest early!” Ye Ping’an hurriedly urged. If this went on, there’d be no end to it.
So the three of them fell asleep, though likely only Xiao Mengyao truly entered dreamland. With stimulation on both sides, Ye Ping’an couldn’t sleep at all.
And what Ye Ping’an didn’t realize was that Ningyue, who was holding him, was just like him.
***
A year and a half later.
During this period, Xiao Mengyao finally reached the peak of the Qi Refining Thirteenth Layer. The scale of her Spirit Sea, and the spiritual power contained within, had reached a terrifying level.
Now, she was just one step away from Foundation Establishment.
Meanwhile, Ye Ping’an had gradually let go of his anxiety. Judging by the time, Feng Aotian should be arriving at this cave soon.
If Feng Aotian barged in while Xiao Mengyao was in the middle of her breakthrough, wouldn’t that ruin everything?
In short, as long as Xiao Mengyao succeeded in Foundation Establishment, it meant he’d never have to accompany his junior sister here again.
Now, Ye Ping’an was already twelve years old, which meant there were still a little over three years before the Blood Demon arrived.
As for Ye Ping’an’s cultivation level… he had now reached the Qi Refinement Fifth Layer.
This was only because, during Xiao Mengyao’s spare time, Ye Ping’an soaked in the Spirit Pool, absorbing the spiritual water, that he managed to reach this level.
It wasn’t that Ye Ping’an didn’t want to improve further, but he had already hit a bottleneck.
As the saying goes, comparing people can drive you mad—Xiao Mengyao only hit a bottleneck at the Qi Refining Thirteenth Layer, but Ye Ping’an ran into one as soon as he broke through to the fourth layer.
That’s right, this wasn’t Ye Ping’an’s first bottleneck. He managed to push past the previous two, but this time, he’d been stuck for nearly half a year.
Of course, Ye Ping’an’s focus was no longer on himself. What mattered most was whether Xiao Mengyao could break through to Foundation Establishment.
At this moment, Ye Ping’an was pacing back and forth inside the cave, looking just like a father anxiously waiting outside the delivery room.
His gaze at the light screen was filled with worry.
Although, with junior sister’s Qi Refining Thirteenth Layer cultivation, she didn’t even need a Zhujidan to attempt Foundation Establishment directly.
But Foundation Establishment was the true start of cultivation. Any mistake, no matter how small, could have immeasurable consequences for the future.
Moreover, Foundation Establishment could still fail—just like those who used Zhujidan, some needed to take more than ten pills before succeeding.
Of course, anyone able to use more than ten Zhujidan was either extremely lucky or came from a family with deep pockets. Ordinary people would be fortunate to get even two or three.
And once Xiao Mengyao succeeded in Foundation Establishment, it meant Ye Ping’an needed to prepare for her awakening.
He’d already planned out what to do for the awakening. Now, all that was left was to wait for Xiao Mengyao to finish Foundation Establishment and see just what kind of divine ability she would awaken.
