âDid you calm down now?â Elder Jing asked as she separated her lips from Yang Wei.
Yang Wei was dumbfounded by her action and decided to test his luck.
âN-No, I-I still canât accept the fact at the moment.â Yang Wei mumbled softly, seemingly in a sullen mood still.
However, inwardly, Yang Wei was full of excitement as he regained his composure with that kiss of Elder Jing.
To go so far in proving that he meant a lot to her, she went and kissed him which shows that she no longer treats him as a simple condition for the inheritance but as someone important in her heart.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing secretly sensed his heart pulse with her cultivation and realized that Yang Wei had regained his calm already.
âYou want to scam another kiss from me when I had given you an inch huh,â Elder Jing smiled inwardly as she nodded her head and leaned closer again.
Yang Wei yelped inwardly as he closed his eyes and leaned forward as well to enjoy another heavenly pleasure⦠only to realize his mouth was stuffed with a pill.
Yang Wei opened his eyes in horror as he consumed the pill unconsciously and saw Elder Jing smiling wickedly at him.
âW-What pill did you feed me, Elder Jing?â Yang Wei asked.
Elder Jing laughed as she said, âItâs the Stomach Killer, your favorite pill.â
Yang Wei paled as he hurriedly tried to escape but Elder Jing restricted his movement, causing Yang Wei to cry inwardly.
âH-How did a kiss turn into a nightmare in a snap?â Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly as he tried to use his expression to beg Elder Jing.
âHmph, youâve made me feel so guilty that I even kissed you in my initiative yet you wanted to take a yard after an inch.â Elder Jing scoffed as she sat down in a chair and stared at Yang Wei.
Afterward, she allowed Yang Wei to speak as she retrieved some Stomach Killer in her spatial ring to play around with.
âE-Elder Jing, Iâm sorry. Please release me already. I-I can feel my stomach agitating already.â Yang Wei pleaded, hoping Elder Jing would release him.
âHow is it possible for your stomach to be agitating when the pill I fed you is nothing like.â Elder Jing suddenly said, causing Yang Wei to tremble slightly.
As he calmed his emotion down, Yang Wei realized nothing was happening to his body.
âA-A psychological trauma?â Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly as he realized what was happening to him.
His fear and trauma from experiencing the effect of the Stomach Killer had made his mind afraid of any purplish pill.
Yang Wei stared at Elder Jing with a dazed expression as he understood why she would scare him like that.
âE-Elder Jing, y-you wanted to cure my heart demon?â Yang Wei asked softly.
Elder Jing nodded her head as she released him from the restraints and sighed softly. âWho would have thought that my creation almost made you have a heart demon that could have ruined your future?â
And she continued, âNow that youâve finally calmed down and got rid of the fear, can I now resume my story without you acting in anger.â
âI wasnât angry like Iâve said before. Just a bit disappointed.â Yang Wei pouted as he sat down next to Elder Jing.
Elder Jing glared at Yang Wei, causing him to shudder slightly but Yang Wei kept his calm demeanor as he wasnât lying.
He was really disappointed when he heard that Elder Jing needed a Qi Condensation realm to obtain the inheritance but that disappointment vanished with Elder Jing proving that he wasnât a filler with that kiss of hers.
Thus, Yang Wei heaved a sigh of relief as he wasnât being delusional and over the head for thinking that Elder Jing was in love with him.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing didnât linger further as she started explaining her experience in the Pagoda and the difficulty of reaching the top.
âThere were many death traps and some strong magical beasts lurking everywhere. To climb the Pagoda upward, it took me a long time and some occasions were even enough to take my life away if I wasnât careful.â Elder Jing said and continued.
âBy the time Iâve reached the top of the Pagoda, I thought I could finally be the first one to accept the inheritance butâ¦.â Elder Jing stopped briefly, causing an unimaginable itch in Yang Weiâs body as he became more curious.
âBut what, Elder Jing?â Yang Wei enquired as he wanted to learn what happened next.
âElder Jing, you canât just stop there.â Yang Wei continued to enquire when Elder Jing held a smug expression.
âDo you really want to know what happened?â Elder Jing asked.
âYes, Iâm already dying with you cliff-hanging me like that.â Yang Wei replied swiftly with an eager expression to know what happened.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing yawned slightly as she exclaimed, âMaybe I should tell you tomorrow since Iâm pretty exhausted today because of someone trying to act smart and take advantage of me.â
Yang Wei smiled bitterly as he couldnât imagine that Elder Jing was a petty and vengeful person. He was just trying to take a risk and get another kiss but Elder Jing is using that as an excuse to keep him in suspense at the most important part.
Seeing how unfavorable the situation is, Yang Wei decided to muster up his courage as he held Elder Jing by the waist before leaning closer.
âElder Jing, if you still keep me in suspense then I donât mind doing some other business. A business that could only be done by a man and a woman.â Yang Wei whispered softly as he stared deeply into her eyes.
Elder Jing wanted to free herself but Yang Wei held her tightly as possible because he knew one thing.
âElder Jing would not have the heart to hit me.â Yang Wei smiled inwardly as he continued to lean closer.
The next moment⦠a loud bam could be heard in the tent.
âYou must really think Iâm some soft-hearted woman.â Elder Jing sneered as she glanced at Yang Wei who crashed down with his face kissing the hard and cold ground.
