Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest

In my previous life, I was half a move short and ultimately failed to reach the summit. Having traveled back to the past, this time... I want to become the strongest in this world! To become the strongest in this world, one only needs three simple steps: 1. Pick up a newly-transferred Demonic Sect Enchantress off the streets. 2. Subdue and vanquish the demon. 3. Take her cultivation technique for myself. Awesome! I'm already invincible! ———————— Years later, Yan Yu, who had earned the title of "the strongest," was interviewed on television: Host: To whom do you want to give thanks for your success today? Yan Yu: I'd like to thank a very important woman to me. Host (eyes lighting up): Oh, is she your wise and virtuous wife? Yan Yu: No, consider her a stepping stone, I suppose. Host (wiping sweat): Then... what about the other members of your team? They must have helped you as well, right? Yan Yu: ... How could there possibly be only one stepping stone on the path to godhood?

Chapter 13 Rational Explanation

Yan Yu passed through the first combat hall and returned to the initial corridor entrance, where he saw Lin Ning squatting alone on the teleportation altar, her back to him as she silently wiped away tears while hugging her knees.

Unfortunately, these altars required a group of five to teleport back, so no matter how long you squatted there, there was no escaping.

Yan Yu walked up behind her and tentatively called out,

"Lin Ning?"

Lin Ning's body trembled slightly, and she stopped wiping her tears.

"Cough cough." Yan Yu coughed a few times and spoke in a clear voice, "I came to check on you."

"What... what's there to see," though Lin Ning's voice still carried a hint of sobbing, her tone remained as stubborn as ever, "Are you here to laugh at me?"

"Laughing at you?" Yan Yu pretended to be clueless. "I don't understand what you're talking about."
