Ryan Ling gave a sly smile, gently kneaded Cindy Sun's butt twice, and teased, "So, does it still hurt down there?"
After that wild night, Cindy Sun understood all about men and women. The pain had turned into pleasure, making her a true woman. Now, with Ryan’s cheeky question, Cindy blushed but still managed a shy smile: "It's fine now, it doesn’t hurt anymore!"
"So, do you want more?" Ryan hugged her tighter as he spoke.
Cindy dropped her head as low as it could go, but then remembered what her dad had said. She nodded slightly, voice trembling: "I... I do!"
Ryan grinned. This shy little girl was nothing like the aggressive Angie Chen. Honestly, he felt even more for Cindy than for Angie. Not caring about anything else, he pressed Cindy down beneath him.
Cindy yelped, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes. Clearly, it still hurt, but she refused to let go of Ryan. Her legs clamped tight around him, sobbing, "Ryan, I want to be your woman forever. I want to have your children!"
After saying that, Cindy actually started moving on her own.
Ryan felt an incredible rush of pleasure. In that instant, Cindy’s yin energy surged into the Ancient Heavenwood, just like the System predicted. The Heavenwood was tough and proud, but soaked in yin, it softened instantly. Their inner fire was so intense, it wiped out the Heavenwood’s outer barrier in a flash.
"Cindy, that’s it! Keep moving, don’t stop!" Ryan’s focus was now completely on the Ancient Heavenwood. He had to seize this moment and fuse with it, letting it recognize him as its master. Only then could they truly merge.
But Cindy had no clue about the ‘big deal’ going on. Hearing Ryan’s words, she obediently kept going, even though she started bleeding again. She didn’t care at all. Like Simon Sun said, Cindy really was a hardworking, sweet girl—cute, loyal, and totally willing to serve. Right now she looked just like a maid from some foreign movie, and it was obvious all these tricks came from Angie Chen.
But with Cindy moving like that, Ryan was honestly loving every second. In an instant, his aura wrapped around the entire stretch of Ancient Heavenwood, sweeping away all its pride. Even purer wood-element spiritual energy flooded straight into Ryan’s body.
Clearly, this ‘rising and falling’ motion had smashed through all of the Ancient Heavenwood’s defenses!
At that moment, the Heavenwood finally recognized Ryan as its master!
As the massive surge of wood-element spiritual energy poured in, Ryan’s dao body started undergoing a shocking transformation.
Inside and out, his bones started cracking—not from injury, but as a sign that the Glazed Golden Body was about to form!
"Ryan, what’s that sound? Did I hurt you?" Cindy cried out in panic, clearly worried she’d gone a bit too hard just now.
"It’s fine, keep going!" Ryan chuckled awkwardly, but inside he was beyond excited. He knew his strongest body was about to be forged. Bathed in pure wood-element energy, his whole body started turning golden, with strange symbols appearing on his skin like some heavenly script.
Inside, the System was screaming with excitement: "Ancient Heavenwood, truly worthy of the name! I thought you’d only get the Glazed Golden Body, but now it looks like you’re evolving into the Yanluo Golden Body!"
"Yanluo Golden Body?" Ryan was stunned.
The System immediately explained, "Don’t overthink it. You’re about to smash through the peak of the Qi-Refining Stage. In the human martial world, you’ll be number one under the Void Realm. With a foundation like this, breaking into the Foundation-Building Stage later will give you insane benefits!"
After the System finished, Ryan felt every pore in his body pouring out earth-shaking power.
...
Meanwhile, outside Divine Medicine Valley, chaos reigned. At least half the people were already lying in pools of blood.
Tiger Hua really was a top sword-dao master—he killed without a sound, and nobody even saw him make a move.
It had only been a quarter of an hour, but Franklin Fu was already at death’s door, and even Daoist Master Xuanlong was covered in wounds. They were both top experts in Dragonridge, but compared to Tiger Hua, they couldn’t even last three moves.
Tiger Hua was just too strong—right now he was totally invincible!
Only Simon Sun was still struggling to hold out, but all the other defenses in Divine Medicine Valley had been completely shattered. Now, just two giant boulders stood between the survivors and Tiger Hua. Distant pavilions and towers were in ruins, sword-qi had flattened almost every building in the valley.
"Ha! Master Hua’s skills are unmatched! These people won’t last much longer. But once we break the last line of defense, don’t rush to kill them—I want them alive, especially those beauties. Even Rose Zhan—I want to train her myself!" Lady Four Huo burst out laughing, her whole body twisting with excitement as Divine Medicine Valley’s defenses crumbled.
"That’s right, Lady Four! The boys have been desperate for ages—these girls look pretty tasty! Hahaha!"
"I’ve got my eye on that slut Angie Chen. Just look at her ass, it gets me fired up!"
"Personally, I prefer mature women like Rose Zhan. That kind of woman’s got real fire—and she spent five years as a corpse! Just thinking about it gets me hyped!"
...
The whole Huo Clan bunch were screaming like lunatic perverts.
Angie Chen was stomping her feet in rage. Rose Zhan was shaking all over. The others said nothing, but Harvey ‘Million’ Jin was so pissed he started hurling curses at Lady Four Huo.
"Lady Four Huo, you old hag! If I make it out alive, I’ll wreck your uterus. If I die, I’ll come back as a fierce ghost and rip your asshole apart! You nasty bitch, you old mutt, the name’s Harvey Jin—if you’ve got the guts, come for me first!"
As soon as Harvey finished, Lady Four Huo exploded in rage, screaming, "Catch that fat bastard first—I’ll chop him up and eat him alive!"

While those two cursed each other out, Simon Sun’s face turned beet red. His breathing was all over the place—he probably couldn’t last more than a few minutes. He couldn’t spare the energy to fight with Lady Four Huo; all he could think about was Ryan Ling. With things this dire, if anyone could stop Tiger Hua, it’d be Ryan and no one else.
"Simon Sun, quit pretending! Those two damn rocks won’t stop me. Tell Ryan Ling to get his ass out here—if he doesn’t show, I’ll kill everyone! I’m done wasting time with you losers!" At that moment, Tiger Hua sneered coldly.
Simon Sun’s heart clenched—he was even more terrified now. He knew Tiger Hua hadn’t gone all out yet, and that line meant he was about to unleash something brutal.
Maybe in the next second, everyone present will be wiped out by this move!
Everyone, retreat! Head for the Lotus Pond—move toward the Lotus Pond now! Simon Sun knew that staying meant certain death.
Stubborn fool! Simon Sun, I respected you as a Medicine King who saved many Chinese lives, and didn’t want to kill you. But you refuse to yield, so I’ll kill you first! Break! Tiger Hua’s brow furrowed, and a surge of terrifying sword-qi blasted out, instantly splitting the two giant boulders and slashing straight toward Simon Sun’s head.
Simon! Rose Zhan screamed and threw herself forward to shield him with her body.
Jason Lin, Harvey Jin, Frank Qin, and the rest of the Harbor City brothers—plus all the remaining bloody-minded heroes—rushed in, raising their weapons together to block the sword-qi.
But the sword-qi was too fierce. With a thunderous boom, all their weapons shattered and everyone was blasted into the air!
A bunch of rabble dare to fight me? Today I’ll send you all to the Western Paradise—to comfort my disciple’s spirit! Tiger Hua clearly recognized Jason, Harvey, and the others from the martial tournament records of Harbor City.
Die, all of you! In an instant, Tiger Hua’s face was expressionless as he unleashed an even stronger wave of sword-qi toward the group.
Simon Sun hugged Rose Zhan tightly!
Jason Lin and the others clenched their teeth!
Sophie Su, Lily Liu, and Angie Chen couldn’t help but cry out Ryan Ling’s name.
And just then, a dazzling golden figure charged onto the scene...
