After being raised by the empress for 400 years,

The Ethereal Summit was in a mess, and there was scorched earth everywhere.

At the center of this disaster was a black, shapeless stone.

After an unknown amount of time, the surface of the stone slowly cracked.

Kerala-

Under the stone clothes, the lines of human skin were revealed.

A pair of eyes that were filled with lightning suddenly opened.

"Finally…the Great Vehicle Stage!"

Si Shaoyang let out a breath and moved.

Boom!

Si Shaoyang took off his stone clothes and looked down at his body.

After being tempered by the lightning, every inch of his body was as strong as a dragon, and if one looked closely, they could faintly see precious splendor circulating.

Si Shaoyang patted his muscles in satisfaction.

"Put your clothes on, it's unsightly-"

A pleasant female voice sounded.

Suddenly, a woman appeared behind Si Shaoyang.

It was a woman who was so beautiful that she could not be compared to anything else. She had a peerless appearance and a flirtatious posture.

However, there was a hint of indifference and dignity in his eyes all year round, making people even breathe carefully.

There is no beauty in a thousand years, but a beauty is pleasing to the eye.

Si Shaoyang didn't seem to mind. He turned around with a smile and raised his arm proudly." Aren't you going to take a look?" If you like it, you don't have to endure it. Feel free to touch it!"

After saying this, he saw a crack on the woman's face as he wished.

The coldness in her eyes receded, and a hint of helplessness appeared on her face." You're really getting more and more oily!"

Si Shaoyang was still smiling calmly." Why? We're already so close. Don't you like her?"

"I don't like-"

The woman looked away, a faint blush on her face.

Si Shaoyang smiled without saying a word and slowly put on his clothes.

No one would know that the woman in front of them was the world-famous empress who had once fought against the entire cultivation world by herself, Xiao Mianzhi!

Of course, the word " encourage " was hers, while the word " congeal " was hers.

Si Shaoyang couldn't help but smile as he looked at Xiao Ning.

It had been many years since they had met.

Four hundred years ago, he was still an ordinary company employee. When he woke up, he found himself in a barren mountain.

He wore it for no reason!

How could a social animal who sat in the office for a long time have the ability to survive in the wild?

Just as he was about to fall into the beast's mouth, he was saved by a woman.

It was the holy daughter who had come by stepping on the moon. She was as refined as a banished immortal.

She saved him and brought him to the village at the foot of the mountain.

When she was almost fully recovered, the woman proposed a deal.

She would mobilize a series of resources that she could mobilize to assist him in his cultivation. The only requirement was her own primordial yang.

Anyone with a little bit of foundation in fantasy novels should know what essence yang was.

Staring at the woman whose cultivation and beauty were unparalleled in the world, Si Shaoyang could not figure out how such a good thing happened to him!

That shouldn't be…

However, since a big cake had fallen from the sky, there was no need for him to reject it.

And then…

He had been a vegetarian for 400 years.

As expected, nothing in this world was simple.

The higher one's cultivation level was, the more effective it was. Thus, Si Shaoyang had to become stronger.

Si Shaoyang felt that he could become a monk after 400 years. He might even be purer than the monks of Tempest Monastery.

After the deal was set up, Xiao Ning provided all kinds of resources and assistance as she had said.

Wealth, he had an inexhaustible supply of natural treasures.

He could casually flip through the secret techniques that everyone in the cultivation world wanted.

Xiao Ning, who had a deep cultivation base, personally taught him.

All kinds of training opportunities and secret realms emerged one after another.

……

Just like that, he rose all the way and was now a cultivator of the Great Vehicle Stage.

In the entire cultivation world, there were eight known Mahayana cultivators. He was the ninth and the fastest to reach this level.

Thinking of this, Si Shaoyang leaned closer to Xiao Ning." Do you still want to wait?" he asked in a flirtatious tone. After the dacheng stage, you can ascend…"

"Don't mess around." Xiao Ning stepped back slightly."You're already a cultivator of the Great Vehicle Stage, yet you're still thinking about that kind of thing."

"I don't cultivate the Heartless Dao, and you're so beautiful, and you keep showing up in front of me…how torturous."

Si Shaoyang took advantage of the situation and pulled Xiao Ning into his arms.

Xiao Ning moved uncomfortably but didn't refuse.

Si Shaoyang's smile grew wider. He teased," Oh my, Your Majesty has been famous for a long time. You're far from my age. Where I come from, this kind of behavior is called 'grooming.' Tsk, tsk, tsk. How perverted."

"You were almost thirty years old then, right? You're not an ignorant child…" Xiao Ning blushed.

"His Majesty personally taught him. His words and actions have been influenced by him. Shaoyang has long been nurtured by His Majesty. Look, this personality was raised by you."

"When did I become so shameless?"

Xiao Ning gritted her teeth.

"In short, my age is at most a fraction of Your Majesty's. Doesn't Your Majesty think that you've taken advantage of me?"

Si Shaoyang wasn't angry. He teased her with a smile and continued to hug Xiao Ning.

In the beginning, his relationship with Xiao Ning was not like this.

At that time, Xiao Ning was always cold and stubborn. Every few days, she would say," It's just a pure deal between us " or " This is a warning. Don't fall in love with me, and don't think that I will fall in love with you."

Unfortunately, she did not cultivate the Heartless Dao, so the first hundred years had not even passed, so her words were obviously sparse.

By now, their intimacy could already be considered a real couple.

Si Shaoyang was sure that their relationship was no longer as pure as a deal.

"Do you really want to…dual cultivate with me?"

Just as he was reminiscing about the past, Xiao Ning's voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

He lowered his head. Xiao Ning was looking at him with a hesitant gaze.

This was an expression that would only appear in front of him.

Si Shaoyang found her adorable. He reached out and pinched her cheeks." Of course I do. But Ning Er has always been the one who takes the initiative. I don't think it's going to work."

Their eyes met, and Xiao Ning laughed softly.

" I'll wait for you in the capital tonight," she whispered into Si Shaoyang's ear.

His breath was soft and warm, and when it touched his ears, Si Shaoyang's body shivered.

This was the first time Xiao Ning had teased him so directly.

Before he could respond, his arms were empty.

He only heard a faint sentence,"Clean up Ethereal Peak…"

Her light fragrance was still in his arms, but the beautiful woman was already ethereal.

Feeling lost, Si Shaoyang couldn't help but giggle.

It had been 400 years. He had finally reached the end of his days as a monk!
