Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

175: Do you have other options?Yan Ruyu raised her head and shook it in refusal: ”No need, Master.”

”Now that the Hehuan Sect has lost Li Xue and these two Elders, the strongest among them is only a Cultivator in the Realm King Realm.”

”I can handle the remaining people myself; it can also be considered as personally avenging the Disciples of my Jade Maiden Sect.”

Now that she was at the fifth level of the Realm King Realm, combined with her Taiyin Divine Body, she was invincible within the Realm King Realm.

Cao Bu nodded and looked at her approvingly: ”Good, you have ambition; go ahead and do it with peace of mind. If you encounter any trouble you cannot solve, tell me at any time.”

”Master, you are so kind!” Yan Ruyu stood on her tiptoes and lightly kissed Cao Bu on the lips.

Cao Bu instantly felt a burning sensation in his heart; he immediately swept Yan Ruyu up into his arms and walked quickly toward the bedchamber.

”Let’s go, let’s return to the room.”

With a ”bang,” the door to the bedchamber was slammed shut forcefully.

Bai Meier was completely dumbfounded.

No way.

Did you two forget that there is still someone here?

Bai Meier only felt her face flush red, her hands tightly clutching the hem of her clothes.

She had heard such sounds in the Hehuan Sect, but someone like Yan Ruyu was in a league of her own.

She looked toward the direction of the bedchamber, then looked at the courtyard gate.

For a moment, she was somewhat hesitant; leaving was not right, and staying was not right either.

In the end, she gritted her teeth, sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard, and waited silently.

This wait lasted until it was dark.

Only when the sounds inside the hall gradually faded did Bai Meier heave a sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to stand up, she saw Yan Ruyu walk out wearing a semi-transparent white gauze robe.

The gauze clung tightly to her body, outlining her exquisite figure perfectly, and her skin emitted a lustrous glow under the moonlight, making her seem like a completely different person from the woman filled with killing intent a month ago.

Bai Meier blinked, feeling as if she were meeting Yan Ruyu for the first time.

The cold and aloof Saintess of the Jade Maiden Sect from back then had now become so wanton.

She asked subconsciously: ”You are just wearing this?”

As she spoke, she looked down at her own relatively conservative dress, only feeling that compared to Yan Ruyu, she was practically a well-behaved person.

Yan Ruyu did not answer her, but simply tilted her chin toward the direction of the bedchamber: ”Follow me, Master wants to see you.”

After saying this, she turned and walked into the bedchamber first, leaving behind a faint, sweet fragrance with an ambiguous aura.

The fragrance drifted into Bai Meier’s nostrils, making her already flushed face even hotter.

She took a deep breath, suppressed the nervousness in her heart, and stepped forward to follow.

Inside the bedchamber, candles flickered, and the light was dim and ambiguous.

Cao Bu lazily rested his head on Yan Ruyu’s jade-like legs, his gaze sweeping over Bai Meier without concealment, carrying a hint of scrutiny and playfulness.

Seeing Bai Meier standing there blankly without opening her mouth, Yan Ruyu couldn’t help but frown and reprimanded: ”What are you still standing there for? Quickly, call him Master.”

She was somewhat speechless; how could the person she brought out lose the ability to speak whenever she met Master?

Bai Meier pursed her lips and said softly: ”Mas... Master.”

”Louder!” Yan Ruyu raised her voice in dissatisfaction, her eyes carrying a hint of disappointment at her failure to meet expectations.

She had spent so much effort punishing her, how could she lose the ability to speak once she was in front of Master?

A flash of anger crossed Bai Meier’s face, but thinking of Cao Bu’s strength, she suppressed the anger in her heart and raised her voice: ”Master!”

Cao Bu glared at Yan Ruyu in dissatisfaction: ”Why are you being fierce to her? What if you scare her?”

Yan Ruyu quickly restrained her expression, her tone softening with a hint of coquettishness: ”Master, I just wanted her to Cultivate well with you.”

”Let this be the last time.” Cao Bu withdrew his gaze and looked at Bai Meier.

Seeing her looking so submissive, he felt somewhat unaccustomed to it for a moment.

He shook his head and said with disappointment: ”Look at how you punished her; you made her too docile, there is no challenge at all.”

Bai Meier observed Cao Bu calmly, and seeing the disappointment in his eyes, a flicker of thought quickly passed through her pupils.

Yan Ruyu quickly explained: ”Master, I was just afraid she wouldn’t be obedient and would delay your Cultivation.”

”I know your good intentions; I don’t mean to blame you.” Cao Bu patted the back of Yan Ruyu’s hand, his tone softening slightly.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Bai Meier suddenly took a step and walked quickly toward the couch.

In the instant before Yan Ruyu and Cao Bu could react.

She raised her hand, and with a ”slap,” a crisp sound of a palm strike exploded in the silent bedchamber.

On Cao Bu’s left cheek, a bright red palm print appeared clearly.

The bedchamber instantly fell into dead silence.

Yan Ruyu reacted, raised her hand to summon a long sword flickering with cold light, pointing the tip directly at Bai Meier, and scolded sternly: ”Bai Meier! You have such audacity! You dare to strike even Master; have you eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?”

As she spoke, she was about to brandish her sword to stab at Bai Meier to avenge Cao Bu.

”Don’t do it.”

Cao Bu raised his hand to stop Yan Ruyu.

Not only was he not angry, but a glimmer of excitement and stimulation rose in his eyes.

”Interesting, this is truly very interesting.”

As his voice fell, he raised his hand without hesitation, and with a ”slap,” he fiercely slapped Bai Meier across the face.

The force of this slap far exceeded Bai Meier’s; she didn’t even have time to scream before her body spun in the air for eighty-one circles, only then crashing heavily to the ground.

On her right cheek, five blood-red finger marks instantly appeared, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

Cao Bu stepped down from the couch, walked step by step toward Bai Meier, grabbed her ankle, and dragged her toward himself.

Bai Meier was in pain and afraid, struggling as she screamed: ”Someone help! Help me!”

...

The next morning, sunlight filtered through the latticed windows of the bedchamber and spilled onto the bed.

Cao Bu sat cross-legged in the center of the bed, his body surrounded by faint spiritual power, with an elusive aura wandering within his body.

Not long after, an aura of Breakthrough suddenly dispersed.

Cao Bu opened his eyes, feeling the more profound spiritual power within his body, and a look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face.

”A Breakthrough! I didn’t expect that the energy of a Void Breaking Realm fifth level could actually allow me to have a Breakthrough; it is quite an unexpected joy.”

He turned his head to look at Bai Meier, who was also sitting cross-legged to the side, and saw that the aura on her body also surged violently before stabilizing.

”Master, I have had a Breakthrough!”

Bai Meier opened her eyes, her face full of pleasant surprise.

She had originally planned to wait until she had Cultivated to the Peak of the Void Breaking Realm before Cultivating with Cao Bu, but she hadn’t expected that Cultivating early would instead allow her to have a Breakthrough faster.

What surprised her even more was that the aftereffect of this Breakthrough was enormous; if it weren’t for the constraints of the Law, she even felt that she could have directly had a Breakthrough to the Realm King Realm.

Cao Bu nodded with satisfaction, then took out the ten thousand fragrances paying homage to the phoenix diagram from his storage ring.

He unfurled the scroll and said to Bai Meier: ”Come, implant a trace of your Primordial Spirit and Essence Blood into it.”

Upon hearing this, the smile on Bai Meier’s face instantly froze.

She was not a naive little girl; just from the words about implanting her Primordial Spirit and Essence Blood, she guessed Cao Bu’s intention.

Seeing her delaying and not moving, Cao Bu looked at her with a smile that was not a smile: ”Why, do you have any other choice?”
