"Senior Sister Linglong, what... what are you trying to do?" Ryan Ling was speechless. Why did stuff like this always happen wherever he went?!
"Jade Xuan arranged it, didn't you know?" Right now, Linglong actually looked a little wronged, her voice tinged with sadness.
Ryan Ling really couldn't stand seeing women like this, and for a moment, he had no idea what to do!
"Senior Sister Linglong, let's just chill out for a sec, okay? It's getting late, maybe we should just do this another day?" Ryan blurted out, really not wanting to get caught up in any weird drama right now!
"You... do you really hate me that much?" Linglong looked a little dejected, turned away with a sigh, and said, "Sigh, I'm such a useless senior sister. My charm technique isn't even one ten-thousandth as good as yours back in the day. Now I've messed up Tender Haven this badly—how can I ever face you again..."
Listening to Linglong's dramatic complaints, Ryan Ling really couldn't take it anymore. But just then, Jade Xuan's voice suddenly sounded beside him.
"Ryan Ling, is my junior sister really not good enough for you? Is she really that much of a turn-off?"
"Jade Xuan, big sis, that's not what I meant! It's just... I only just joined the sect, and doing this kind of thing right away feels a bit weird, doesn't it?"
"What's so weird about it? If you want to power up again, if you still want to find what you're looking for, then hurry up and get together with Linglong! I'm telling you, Linglong may be average in most things, but she's got something in her body that you dream about. With it, you could see through every corner of Ruins Sect—there's no way you wouldn't find what you're after!"
Hearing Jade Xuan say this, Ryan Ling's heart skipped a beat—he definitely hadn't expected such a bonus to be hidden in all this!
"Jade Xuan, big sis, are you serious?" Hearing this, Ryan Ling couldn't help but get excited.
"Of course! But if you miss this chance, don't blame me for not warning you!" Jade Xuan finished speaking, snorted coldly, and instantly vanished.
On the other side, Linglong looked very disappointed. She ignored Ryan Ling and slowly walked out.
"Wait!" Ryan Ling didn't hesitate anymore and quickly shouted after her.
"What else do you want to say? If you think I'm not good enough, just say it!" Linglong was still a little fragile—her eyes were already red!
"Senior Sister Linglong, I absolutely don't mean that! In fact, I just realized you're actually really beautiful!" Ryan Ling quickly changed his tone. Right now, Linglong was definitely a treasure in his eyes!
Right now, he was desperately searching for a branch of Primeval Heavenwood—nothing mattered more. Aside from himself, only Jade Xuan knew this. So if Linglong could help him, forget just sleeping with her—Ryan Ling would even lick her feet!
Besides, he understood Jade Xuan's intentions—using dual cultivation to boost Linglong's strength. Ever since Jade Xuan left, Tender Haven's power was way too weak, so this was the fastest and most effective way to fix it!
"What did you say?" Linglong was clearly stunned by his words, freezing in place.
"I said you're beautiful—don't you get what I mean?" Ryan Ling said, grabbing Linglong's hand.
Linglong's whole body trembled slightly. Ryan Ling had plenty of experience with women, and he immediately felt that Linglong was clearly still a virgin—she was obviously inexperienced in these matters. Suddenly being grabbed by Ryan left her totally flustered.
"Come on, let's get to know each other a little deeper, Senior Sister Linglong!" Ryan Ling pulled her into his arms.
"W-wait!" Faced with Ryan Ling's sudden move, Linglong actually hesitated!
"What's wrong? If you don't want to, I won't force you." Ryan Ling really wanted that ability from Linglong, but he didn't want to pressure any woman.
"No!" Linglong quickly shook her head, then bit her lip and said, "It's not that I don't want to, it's just... Can I have a moment to get ready?"
"Alright!" Ryan Ling knew that a woman needed to be mentally prepared for her first time, so he wasn't in a rush.
But just as Ryan Ling turned away, thinking the wait would take a while, Linglong suddenly pounced like a tiger, knocking Ryan to the ground.
"Whoa, that's a little intense, isn't it?" Linglong's sudden move left Ryan Ling speechless.
"Senior Sister Jade Xuan said women should be bold, not back down! Come on, I'm not afraid of pain!" Linglong said, spreading her legs.
Ryan Ling was totally speechless seeing this. He could almost hear Jade Xuan laughing nearby.
But to be fair, Linglong really did have her own charm—inside and out, she was brimming with seductive energy. With a senior sister this bold, late at night in the cave-mansion, any man would probably surrender.
And Linglong just happened to have exactly what he wanted!
Ryan Ling didn't hesitate—he dove right in, and a scream echoed through the room.
"Gentle... go easy!" Linglong yelled immediately.
"Didn't you say you weren't afraid of pain?" Ryan Ling smiled, swept up in the moment and not holding back at all.
In no time, the atmosphere in Tender Haven became incredibly seductive—the scene was enough to make anyone's nose bleed!
But even in the heat of the moment, Ryan Ling didn't focus too much on the act itself. Instead, he started absorbing a special power from Linglong's body. He realized her eyes were different from other women—there was a unique energy in them, like a heaven-eye. Oddly, this power hadn't awakened in Linglong, but once it transferred to him, it slowly began to show itself.
Anyone seeing Ryan Ling right now would be shocked. Nothing else about him changed, but his eyes were glowing with a strange light—bright and a bit eerie, as if they'd just been specially upgraded.
Ryan Ling understood exactly what was happening. His eyes first tingled, then flashes of golden light darted across his vision, like some god was performing surgery on them. In a moment, it felt like every nerve in his eyes had been completely unlocked!
"So clear!" Ryan Ling opened his eyes, and suddenly those once-blurry boundaries came into sharp focus. Without any hesitation, he started searching for the Primeval Heavenwood branch—he saw everything, inside and out. As he scanned a hidden chamber, a familiar aura hit him!
"Primeval Heavenwood!" Ryan Ling's heart skipped a beat—there was no doubt, this was a branch of Primeval Heavenwood. The aura was even stronger than he'd imagined, clearly packed with power. If he could get it, it would change everything!
But that place was a little strange.
It seemed really well hidden, with tons of powerful seals—at least god-level!
Most importantly, above the chamber was a line of writing—Celestial Hall!
After a night of passion, Linglong was totally refreshed—she felt more relaxed, more confident, and her strength had clearly improved. She was like a whole new person.
"Ryan Ling, you smell amazing—I really want to do it again!" Linglong looked at him with a teasing smile.
"Let's save it for next time, okay? I want to ask you something." Ryan Ling was a little speechless—Linglong was seriously bold.
"What is it? Just ask!" Linglong now seemed much more girlish, smiling sweetly.
"Do you know about Celestial Hall?" Ryan Ling asked right away.
"Why are you asking about that? You just joined—there's no way you should know about such a secret place!" Linglong was surprised.
"Just tell me how to get in." Ryan Ling cut straight to the point.
"Celestial Hall is the sect's top training ground—ordinary disciples can't even dream of entering. To get in, you have to be one of the best, at least the newcomer king!" Linglong explained quickly.
"Newcomer king?" Ryan Ling took a deep breath. If all it took was becoming the newcomer king, that wouldn't be too hard for him...
