28 Lu Lan's breakthrough

"Aaaah... Bastard, don't hit me there."

Su Ya whined painfully as she quickly opened her eyes. Rubbing her bottom gently, she glared at Ling Tian. Her bottom was still burning from the previous beating, There is no way she could endure anymore.

"Still so disrespectful? It seems like the punishment wasn't enough. Shall I start another round?"

Ling Tian pulled out the sliver mask off his face and looked at her with a smile.

Su Ya's expression changed. Her face flushed and she replied agitatedly, "No no no. Master, I won't be disrespectful again. Please spare me."

"I see, a pity. Anyway, why is that you didn't open your eyes earlier even though you already woke up?"

Ling Tian narrowed his eyes looking at Su Ya.

"Th.. that.. that's because..."

Su Ya turned sheepish. Even though she is changed completely, that guy was after all her past for so many years. She didn't want to face him. Also, she was rather curious about how Ling Tian will deal with him.

"What? You feel guilty? Or you still have feeling for him?"

Ling Tian asked with a smile that is not a smile.

"No no, that's not it. I don't care about him. It's just that since master seemed to had planned something already, I didn't want to interfere."

Su Ya quickly denied and explained flusteredly.

"Oh.. whatever. In any case, you are my disciple now and belong to me completely."

Ling Tian shrugged his shoulders and stated overbearingly.

Hearing those words, Su Ya wasn't displeased, instead she is happy. But suddenly he face turned solemn, "Master, earlier, you said he can join the sect if he defeats me. Are you really going to let him join?"

She looked at him doubtfully.

"Why not? I don't mind if he can to defeat you. But of course if you were lose, you are going to be expelled. Hehe, still losing to someone ordinary even after awakening a Purple Grade Soul Dharma Artifact, if that is not called incompetence, then what is. I might as well not a have such a 'great' disciple."

Ling Tian tapped on her forehead and replied gently.

"What. Master, you are joking, right?"

Su Ya paled and forced an uneasey smile. Though she knew that she awakened something amazing, she is not aware of what a Purple Grade Soul Dharma Armament is capable of. She is not confident if she can defeat him after a month.

Ling Tian didn't say anything just stared her with no expression on his face. She might not aware of it's capability, but he certainly does. From what he heard, to those with Purple Armaments, Cultivation bottlenecks generally don't exist. It's just matter of accumulation of Spiritual Qi.

Just look at her now, even though she only dual cultivated with him one time, her cultivation is already at Body Strengthening Realm 5th Stage, almost same as him.

In future, the speed of her cultivation will be no less than his. Infact she might even be better than him in this aspect. It's because, he can only raise his cultivation by dual cultivation due to his peculiar physique. But to her, no such restrictions exist. She can also absorb Spiritual Qi by normal methods.

'Oh, right. A cultivation technique. Since she never cultivated before, she is yet to have one.'

Ling Tian suddenly thought and glanced at the spatial ring on his finger. But he quickly shook his head with a wry smile, 'I don't I think had any cultivation techniques except for that Yin Flower Crippling Art. Well, not my fault. Who would I carry them around when they are useless to me.'

As he doesn't have a proper cultivation technique on him currently, he can only turn to the system and complain discontently, "Hey system. Isn't it your responsibility to provide cultivation techniques for disciples. Why are you so irresponsible?"

[ ..... Function is not available yet ]

"Huh? Does not mean it will available in future? Like, after that uprade or something?"

Ling Tian asked with a surprised expression. Looking at it's reply, he couldn't help but remember the new mission from a while ago.

[ ..... ]

'Tsk, ignoring again? an unreliable system. Forget it, Lu Lan should've had some cultivation techniques with her. May be there will be one that might be compatible with this girl. Oh right Lu Lan, It's about time she complete her breakthrough.'

Thinking to himself, Ling Tian turned towards the golden palace with a bright glow in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Su Ya who had been observing the expressionless Ling Tian for a while, receiving no reply from him, turned anxious. As he finally made some movement and turned his around, ignoring her completely, she is stumped. Pouting, she too turned to the golden palace, following his sight, with curious expression.

At the moment, there is a commotion around the golden palace. There are multiple whirpools of energy, sucking in huge amounts of Spiritual energy ceaselessly. Those waves of Spiritual energy whirpools are disappearing into the palace one by one.

In a while, Just as all those of whirlpools vanished completely, a slight tremor, originating from the palace, extended up to the miles away around the palace. The whole place vibrated for a second before everything returned to normal.

"It's finally over. My dear Lan'er will come out now."

Laughing brightly, Ling Tian got up and ignoring Su Ya, he strolled towards the golden palace. Zia and Sierra, the white and black fairies looked at each other, they fluttered their wings and followed him quietly.

'Lan'er? So there is someone else here. And did he just ignore me for another girl?'

Looking at his back view, Su Ya is dazed. There her face soured with a strange feeling sprouting in her heart.
