Although Serena Dream was still a bit confused at the moment, she naturally understood the changes happening inside her body. At this point, Evan Chu said, "Circulate that energy through your body for one full cycle. Take it slow—there’s no rush, we have plenty of time."
She followed his instructions, slowly circulating the mysterious energy within her body. Already astonishingly intelligent, she couldn’t help but marvel at the strange phenomena as the energy coursed through her meridians.
Soon, she completed one full cycle and clearly sensed the Stellar Power within her body growing much stronger. The discovery filled her with joy.
Once she was done, Evan Chu quickened his movements. After the pain faded, an overwhelming wave of pleasure crashed over her. Soon, soft moans filled the room—she simply couldn’t help herself. She knew her voice would reach the three women in the next room, but she was powerless to stop it.
It went on like this until dawn, when Evan Chu finally climbed off Serena Dream. He had absorbed her Gold Yin Qi three times, and now it was time to fully refine it. Meanwhile, Serena Dream also needed to absorb and refine the mysterious energy Evan Chu had sent into her body.
Gradually, the two entered a meditative state. It didn’t take her long to completely refine the energy. At that moment, she felt utterly refreshed—her mind clear, her spirit light. The only discomfort was a certain soreness below.
The patch of crimson on the bedsheet proved her purity and marked her true transition from maiden to woman. She quietly got out of bed to wash up—after such a fierce battle, she needed to clean herself of lingering mess.
Meanwhile, Evan Chu continued refining her Gold Yin Qi. Only now did he truly sense its immense power—maybe, just maybe, it could push him to break through to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Martial Realm.
On his Divine Star Core, the golden dragon’s eyes snapped open and started greedily absorbing Evan Chu’s Chaos Dragon Force. If you looked closely, you’d see the dragon now had seven claws, each gleaming with power.
All Evan Chu could feel now was a swelling, almost unbearable ache in his dantian—a familiar sensation that always signaled a breakthrough. Chaos Dragon Force surged through his body again and again. He lost all sense of time, completely immersed in cultivation.
After changing into clean clothes, Serena Dream appeared before Evan Chu. Now that she was a married woman, even her hairstyle had changed. But seeing Evan Chu at such a critical moment in his breakthrough, she didn’t dare disturb him.
At this moment, Evan Chu wasn’t wearing any clothes, only using a quilt to cover his lower body while his upper body remained bare. Serena Dream noticed a faint golden glow flickering at his dantian region.
This discovery left her utterly shocked. She’d seen treasures that glowed before, but never a person who could literally emit light. She stood quietly in front of Evan Chu, not daring to interrupt.
Minute after minute passed. Evan Chu was now at the final bottleneck of his breakthrough, silently chanting in his heart: “Break through for me!”
Chaos Dragon Force surged madly into the Divine Star Core. Instantly, a wave of intense pain radiated from his dantian, making Evan Chu furrow his brows. He knew this was no time to hesitate.
Bang! After a faint, crisp sound, Evan Chu smiled to himself—he’d broken through. With Serena Dream’s Gold Yin Qi, he had advanced to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Martial Realm.
Just as he was rejoicing, a tremendous dragon roar erupted from his Divine Star Core—the sound was so powerful that even Serena Dream, standing nearby, could hear it echo through the room.
That dragon roar gave Serena Dream a huge fright. She’d seen plenty of strange things before, but nothing quite so bizarre as this.
Evan Chu was startled too. He quickly checked his Divine Star Core and found the dragon image had vanished. The core itself had transformed into a golden bead, radiating a dim, otherworldly glow.
But that wasn’t even the most shocking part. When he checked the rest of his body, he realized the vanished dragon was now swimming through his meridians, slowly making its way toward his sea of consciousness.
Just as Evan Chu was about to ask Luna the Sword Spirit why such a strange phenomenon was occurring, a wave of searing pain exploded in his mind. It felt like his soul was being torn apart—just like the agony he’d experienced when signing the Soul Contract with Goldwing. He couldn’t help but let out a groan.
Serena Dream sensed something was wrong and immediately stepped forward, asking, "Lin Feng, what’s going on? What happened to you?"
Evan Chu could hear Serena Dream speaking, but he couldn’t open his mouth—right now, it was as if he’d lost the ability to speak. All he could do was stare at Serena Dream.
The look in his eyes made it clear how serious things were. Serena Dream, being quick-witted, grasped the situation instantly. She immediately turned and ran to the next room.
At that moment, Selena Yale and the other two women had already gotten up. Seeing Serena Dream rush in, Selena Yale laughed, "Rumeng, did Lin Feng tire you out so much you came looking for reinforcements?"
Nie Lynne and Selena also snickered quietly. Serena Dream’s moans last night had kept all three women awake—they’d pretended to sleep, but were actually listening intently to the sounds from the next room.
It had left them feeling a kind of restless heat they’d never experienced before. Selena Yale’s teasing naturally felt satisfying, but Serena Dream quickly said, "What are you all imagining? You’d better go take a look—Lin Feng seems to be in trouble!"
At those words, the three women were instantly alarmed and rushed to the neighboring room. But when they saw Evan Chu, all four nearly thought they’d barged into the wrong place—a dragon-headed, human-bodied figure covered head-to-toe in shimmering dragon scales stood before them, radiating a terrifying aura.
Selena Yale and Selena had witnessed Evan Chu’s true form before. They knew something serious was happening, but had no idea how to help.
But for Lynne Nie and Serena Dream, this was their first time seeing Evan Chu like this—their faces went pale with fright. Lynne Nie asked, trembling, "Is this monster really our husband?"
Though she could hardly accept it, who else but Evan Chu would be in this room? But as for why he’d become like this, she had no clue—she could only hope Selena Yale or someone else could explain.
Selena Yale studied Evan Chu and found him relatively stable—not like last time, when things had spiraled out of control. She told Lynne Nie, "Lin Feng isn’t like other people. He’s not only the reincarnation of the ancient powerhouse Lord Frostbane, he’s also the supreme golden dragon scion of the Dragon Clan. But his father was human. There are things even I don’t fully understand, but I’m sure he’ll recover soon enough."
"Dragon Clan? Oh my god! My husband is actually a dragon? That’s just unbelievable!" Lynne Nie exclaimed in shock...
