Chapter 168: Master, I Want to Be on Top!
“Ah woo!”
Mu Ran Ya suddenly transformed into a small leopard, opening her mouth to bite, leaving tooth marks on Zhou Tong’s shoulder.
“Hiss…”
Zhou Tong instinctively inhaled sharply, but then suddenly froze.
It didn’t hurt this time; instead, it was filled with a soft and warm touch. Rather than a bite, it felt more like a gentle kiss.
“Master… I want to be on top!”
With a roll, Zhou Tong pinned Mu Ran Ya down.
He saw her entire body was soft, appearing as if she would yield entirely.
Boom!
Zhou Tong’s mind felt as if it were about to explode.
Even though he often had close contact with his Master, he had never seen such a situation.
When something is unusual, there must be a demon behind it.
Mu Ran Ya’s posture like this—could it be that a disaster was about to occur again?
“Master, you aren’t ill, are you?”
As soon as he said this, Mu Ran Ya immediately became angry.
“You get down; I want to be on top!”
With a struggle, their positions switched.
“You don’t want the soft approach, and insist on the hard one for your Master.”
As they spoke, their gazes met, and Zhou Tong saw a vast world of red dust in his Master’s eyes.
“Oh no… you actually used Qi Luo Dream Fantasy on me?!”
Zhou Tong was completely shocked. At that moment, his blood boiled, even his Imperial-level spirit almost couldn’t hold on, nearly transforming him into a beast.
Something was off—there was a 90% chance something was wrong!
Normally, Mu Ran Ya’s charm was already peerlessly unbeatable.
But in front of Zhou Tong, she had never used such alluring tactics.
In her words, that was simply too embarrassing, and she couldn’t overcome that hurdle in her heart.
But today, Mu Ran Ya directly used this technique, catching Zhou Tong completely off guard.
“Union Lock, activate!”
With a flash of red light, Mu Ran Ya let out a gasp and lost all her strength.
Taking this opportunity, Zhou Tong once again took the advantageous position, looking down at his Master.
“Speak quickly, what exactly happened? Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rebellious!”
Zhou Tong’s eyes were full of aggression, which delighted Mu Ran Ya.
“You little rascal, what could you possibly do to me?”
“Oh, so you’re very brave, huh?”
“I’m super brave, alright!”
“Then… let me see!”
As the words fell, Zhou Tong turned Mu Ran Ya over and pinned her to his knee.
His palm raised.
Then it fell!
With a slap!
“Ah… little rascal, you actually dare to hit your Master…”
Mu Ran Ya’s face flushed red; never did she expect that Zhou Tong would punish her like this.
“Aren’t you very brave? Let’s continue!”
“Stop it!”
“Mm? Are you begging me? Then I refuse!”
“Slap, slap, slap!”
The sound of slaps continued in succession. Mu Ran Ya struggled desperately, nearly fainting.
Being treated like this by her beloved disciple made her feel both strange and ashamed.
In helplessness, she had to resort to her trump card: crying!
“Woo woo… little rascal, you bad egg, you’re bullying me like this; you don’t like your Master anymore?”
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Tong immediately surrendered!
Who said a hundred-year-old Maiden couldn’t be alluring? She’s a pro at it!
“First tell me, why are you behaving so strangely?”
Zhou Tong held Mu Ran Ya, asking worriedly.
Mu Ran Ya dared not look Zhou Tong in the eyes, stammering, “This was taught to me by Lian Hanxing. She said that as long as I loosen up a bit, I could make you surrender; what a big liar!”
Zhou Tong felt as if he had been struck by lightning, staring incredulously at the flawless beauty in his arms.
“Master… you’ve learned to be bad.”
“Mm… then little rascal, will you still like a bad Master?”
Mu Ran Ya raised her tear-filled eyes, timidly looking at Zhou Tong like a little animal.
Who could withstand this?
“I like it!”
Without a second’s hesitation, Zhou Tong surrendered decisively.
“Wait, I almost let you off the hook!”
Zhou Tong slapped his forehead and asked again, “You went through so much trouble to tempt me into making mistakes, what’s the purpose of all this?”
As these words fell, Mu Ran Ya averted her gaze again, trying to continue playing dead.
“Master…”
Zhou Tong dragged out the tone, slowly approaching her, meeting her eyes.
“Alright, alright… I’ll tell you. Your Master wants to help you cultivate.”
“Nonsense!”
Zhou Tong didn’t believe it at all. From the beginning, he had a skeptical attitude toward the Great Dao of yin-yang integration.
This was understandable; after all, from his past life until now, he was still a…
“I’m not lying to you. You’re breaking through to the Void Self Realm, right? If you don’t take this step, you won’t be able to break through.”
“I don’t believe it!”
Zhou Tong shook his head. The method to break through the Void Self Realm had long been lost; even he could only feel his way step by step. Mu Ran Ya was merely at the Sage level; how could she possibly know more than he did?
“Could it be that I can’t break through without taking advantage of Master?” Zhou Tong stubbornly said.
“Who can say…?”
Mu Ran Ya smiled as she took out a tattered tome from behind her. It looked ancient and clearly was a fragmented piece.
“This was found among the Joyful Union Sect’s records compiled by Sheng Xin; it should not be fake.”
Zhou Tong took the tome, flipping it casually, and an ancient aura rushed toward him.
His heart jolted; this book was at least a hundred thousand years old.
“Emperor Ascension Chart… personally approved by the Heavenly Emperor!”
Seeing these few obscure ancient characters, Zhou Tong took a deep breath. This was actually the cultivation manuscript of an Emperor.
Although it was only a part, it contained the method to break through the Void Self Realm.
To attain the Void Self, one must seek the Six Selves!
The Six Selves are: True Self, Past Self, Future Self, Loving Self, Divine Self, and Transcended Self!
True Self is the original heart; Past Self refers to the self from the past; Future Self refers to the self from the future.
Divine Self is the self that others believe in; Transcended Self refers to the transformed self.
As for Loving Self… Zhou Tong looked at Mu Ran Ya.
Far away yet close at hand!
“Now you should believe your Master’s words, right?”
Mu Ran Ya tilted her head, both elegant and proud, like a great white swan.
She raised her fingers, as if reciting a treasured memory: “To love me, one must share in life’s challenges with me, standing together through life and death. One must have their heart committed to me, unwaveringly loyal!”
“One must entrust their body and soul to me, seamlessly blending, and accompany me until the end of time, never to betray!”
As she spoke, her breath was fragrant, filled with countless tender emotions, her fervent feelings bursting forth, capable of softening even the hardest heart.
Then, she leaned close to Zhou Tong’s ear, whispering, “Your Master completely fits the criteria…”
Zhou Tong felt a fire igniting in his heart and couldn’t help but chuckle, “Master, the Emperor Ascension Chart also said that I must break through to the Cycle Realm before I can attempt to pursue the Loving Self!”
As soon as this was said, Mu Ran Ya felt as if she had been struck by lightning!
“I can’t go on living!”
She was so ashamed and angry; Heaven knows how much courage it had taken her to act today.
“To heck with it, since it’s already done, then your Master will assist you in cultivating, helping you break through quickly!”
Mu Ran Ya, in a moment of reckless abandon, pressed down on Zhou Tong again, wanting to use a kiss to impart her cultivation.
“Wait a minute!” Zhou Tong suddenly shouted.
“What now?”
“I want to be on top!”
