At a secret cave entrance on the back mountain, the recently emerged little demoness Xuan Yin stood there. A gentle breeze blew against her, lifting her black hair and swaying her dress. Her face displayed a hint of longing, and in the aura around her, there was a subtle touch of spring.

"My beloved husband… it's been a while. I'm sure he must miss me," Xuan Yin lightly bit her lip. A faint blush spread across her delicate features as she mumbled to herself, "Perhaps… perhaps he only missed my body. By the way, with all this rest these days, my husband must be quite vigorous now, right?"

As she spoke, various scenes flashed through her mind. In an instant, her cheeks were burning, and she even felt a bit feverish. Gently cradling her face in her hands, she could sense a continuous warmth emanating from her palms. Intense embarrassment seemed to penetrate her entire being.

But regardless of her shyness, Xuan Yin couldn't wait any longer. She just wanted to find him, dive into her beloved husband's arms, start by passionately kissing his lips, then push him onto the bed, and finally, throw herself onto him.

"Uhh…"

"Maybe I should take a bath first," Xuan Yin raised her arm and brought it to her nose, sniffing herself. If she met her beloved husband like this, he would definitely be disgusted, and perhaps he would use it as an excuse to find some other alluring woman outside.

Hmph. I won't give him that opportunity!

Xuan Yin pouted her lips in a slightly annoyed manner. A trace of coy anger appeared on her face. She then proceeded to take light and graceful steps toward the hot spring pool at the foot of the mountain. The distance from here to the hot spring was relatively short, but the little demoness seemed to be walking somewhat slowly, lost in thought.

How should I face him when I see him later? During the phase of extreme Yin, I actually forced him to do so many things… he must think I'm an… an improper wife. What if he looks down on me because of this?

He shouldn't… I remember he was even happier than me, more excited, and more enthusiastic.

"Naughty husband."

"If you dare to laugh at me… I will…" Xuan Yin muttered to herself in a coquettishly angry tone. "I will definitely chop you up…and…and.."

As she contemplated how to "abuse" her man, she unknowingly reached the hot spring pool at the mountain's base. She walked up to the pool that belonged to her, bent down to touch the warm clear water with her hand, and then, with a light pull, she untied a green ribbon from her waist. Along with the falling ribbon, the sides of her dress instantly opened.

She removed the elegant dress, followed by her chest wrap and underwear. If it were in the past, when she had just met Lu Xun, she would never have been so bold. But now, she no longer cared. After all, she had entrusted her entire body to him. What did she have to worry about regarding such trivial matters?

Lifting her leg, she slowly entered the warm pool. The gentle water enveloped her entire body, quickly dispelling the fatigue of the past few days. She felt as if all the pores on her body were opening up.

Leaning against the stone wall, she closed her eyes, tilting her head back. Her thoughts gradually drifted to a certain someone.

At the same time, Lu Xun was in his room, studying the recently upgraded "Iron Wall Defence" which, like the previous "Pure Yang Body," now also required ten million in cultivation to reach the fourth level.

"What's going on?"

"During the previous upgrade, my body felt extremely hot. Why do I not feel anything this time?" Lu Xun casually threw a few punches. His strength and agility showed no changes, and he contemplated for a moment before punching the ground.

"Ouch!"

Lu Xun immediately wore a painful expression. He had painstakingly accumulated two million in cultivation, and now, it was all gone.

With a melancholy expression, he sat on a wooden chair, pondering the current level of Iron Wall Defence. Based on his experience upgrading the "Pure Yang Body," if the second level of Iron Wall Defence had passive effects, then the effect at this level must be active.

Passive, active, passive, active… Lu Xun contemplated, feeling like he had touched upon something profound but hadn't fully grasped it yet. While he continued to draw connections, a sudden insight struck him. What if he could gather the power within his body to a specific area, creating unparalleled defense?

To verify his conjecture, Lu Xun began experimenting. He gradually directed the power within him toward one of his fingertips. Soon, he felt his fingertip warming, and then it became scorching hot, even slightly reddening.

"Boom!"

Lu Xun pressed his fingertip to the ground, creating a hole.

"It worked!"

"Hahaha, it worked!"

Lu Xun gazed at his crimson fingertip with excitement written all over his face. Even though it leaned towards defensive attributes, as long as it was strong enough and couldn't be easily destroyed, it could serve as an offensive technique, right?

Following that, Lu Xun initiated various experiments. He started with his arms, then his thighs, and finally his torso. However, after numerous experiments, he realized that the defensive strength was related to the area he concentrated his power on. The smaller the area, the stronger the defense, and conversely, the larger the area, the weaker the defense.

"Hmm…"

"As the level increases, there will be more power within the body, and more power means stronger defense. So, accumulating cultivation might be…"

Lu Xun pursed his lips, shaking his head silently. He mumbled to himself, "No, cultivation still needs to be accumulated. Let's just go with the flow."

As he said this, Lu Xun fell into deep thought.

After some simple contemplation and a calm analysis, he hesitated, "No, not there. If it explodes, it'll be… awkward."

However, his curiosity got the best of him, and he finally attempted the experiment on his crotch.

But the system displayed a warning message, cautioning Lu Xun about the danger of such behavior. He heeded the warning and refrained from proceeding, although he felt a bit regretful. After all, unlocking such a powerful skill and not making the best use of it would be a waste.

Waste…

Waist! I want to strengthen my waist!

Lu Xun attempted to concentrate his power on both sides of his waist, and in an instant, he felt his lower back firming up. At the same time, there was a tingling sensation, a continuous rush of impulses flooding from his spine into his brain.

"It's effective!"

Lu Xun touched his waist, and even through his skin, he could feel a surge of heat. Though he hadn't tested the actual strength of his enhanced waist, based on his estimation, even a snake demoness like Xuan Yin should be easily handled.

But wait, a single snake demoness wouldn't showcase his bravery. He decided to enhance both his upper and lower body simultaneously to save time and focus on more serious matters.

At this moment, Lu Xun felt incredibly robust.

While Lu Xun was still studying his new ability, Xuan Yin, who had just returned after her cultivation breakthrough, was in the backyard. She wore a simple, loose-fitting robe, and her eyes were filled with anticipation and shyness as she gazed towards a small cottage.

Instead of heading to Lu Xun's room, she walked up to her master's door and gently knocked.

Soon, her Master opened the door, and upon seeing her, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes. She expressed astonishment, "Why so fast? Doesn't it usually take ten days?"

"I'm not sure why."

Xuan Yin pursed her lips and spoke in a soft and charming voice, "Master, it seems like I'm about to break through. I've vaguely touched the threshold of the Mid-Innate Realm, but I'm just a breath away."

Immortal Miao Feng was greatly surprised and hurriedly pulled Xuan Yin inside. After a careful examination, she confirmed that Xuan Yin's cultivation had significantly improved. She spoke with a solemn tone, "This Pure Yang Body is indeed extraordinary. You've gained such substantial benefits from it. How many years have you made no progress in your cultivation? But now, after dual cultivation with Lu Xun for seven days, you're on the verge of breaking through to the Mid-Innate Realm."

Xuan Yin bit her lip lightly and mumbled in a low voice, "If Master is right, then… isn't it very dangerous for him? I mean, his situation is perilous, and many women may covet his body."

"It doesn't matter."

"As long as I, your Master, is here, I will eliminate those external threats," Immortal Miao Feng said calmly.

As for internal threats… Thinking about this, the big demoness felt an overwhelming sense of shame, and was almost unable to look at Xuan Yin.

"Okay."

"With Master protecting him, I can rest assured." Xuan Yin held onto the arm of the big demoness and said gently, "Master, I entrust my husband to you."

Facing Xuan Yin's sincere words, Immortal Miao Feng didn't know how to respond. She had originally felt a bit bitter towards Xuan Yin, but now, she was overwhelmed with shame and self-blame. She had become deeply entangled during those nights in Yangzhou City, and she couldn't extricate herself from it.

"I…"

"I will do my best." Immortal Miao Feng changed her attitude from before and spoke softly, "But Xuan Yin, you need to prepare yourself mentally. Lu Xun is a charming scoundrel by nature. If one day he unknowingly finds some excitement elsewhere, don't be too angry. That's just how he is."

With that said, without giving Xuan Yin a chance to respond, she continued, "Have you gone to find him?"

"Huh?"

"No, I haven't." Xuan Yin shook her head and replied softly, "After I left seclusion, I came to find you first."

"You silly girl."

Immortal Miao Feng felt a warmth in her heart and a touch of bitterness. She said gently, "Go find him quickly. I can see the longing for him in your eyes."

"Oh."

Xuan Yin slowly stood up, her face blushing with a hint of shyness. She was ready to leave and find her husband.

As she took a few steps, she heard her master's voice from behind.

"Xuan Yin."

"Don't stay here. Go to the back mountain and enjoy your time together."

Xuan Yin arrived at her husband's door and stood at the entrance, hesitating to go inside. Ultimately, her longing and desire overcame her rationality and restraint. She gently raised her hand and knocked on the door before her.

"Knock, knock, knock…"

"Husband, I… I'm back."
