I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills-Chapter 190 - 153: The Day of Thunder and Rain (Part 2)
Getting undressed was naturally a swift affair, and Zou Feng was done in a few quick moves.
Not to be outdone, Tian Yun quickly followed suit, and soon the two of them were bare before each other.
However, because they were both covered in mud, there wasn’t much to see for the time being.
As they soaked in the stream, the mud gradually washed away. A look of relaxation appeared on both their faces at almost the same time, and neither was in a rush to begin the battle.
At this time of year, the mountain spring water was bone-chillingly cold, but they only needed to circulate a little Inner Qi to immediately feel as if they were in a hot spring.
In this setting, Zou Feng completely relaxed.
He was quite satisfied to have Tian Yun accompanying him at this moment.
She had both beauty and a fine temperament, was well-endowed, and lacked the coyness common to so many women.
Looking at the long term, as a woman who aimed for the peak of the Martial Dao, Tian Yun was independent and self-reliant. In the future, she most likely wouldn’t get overly entangled with him in romantic affairs.
At this thought, Zou Feng smiled carefreely. "Master Tian, let me help you wash..."
Tian Yun had been waiting for Zou Feng to make a move. Seeing this, she immediately beamed with joy and moved to meet him.
The weather on Qifeng Mountain was always fickle.
One moment it was sunny and bright, and the next, dark clouds gathered, and thunder began to roll.
Amidst the thunder and rain, Zou Feng completed a transformation.
And he finally experienced, in a much deeper way, the meaning of a Thunderous Roar.
Everything happened naturally. After all, they were both free-spirited people of the Jianghu, so there was no need for the extra formalities of solemn vows and oaths of love.
Mutual attraction was enough.
「Afterward.」
Looking down at Tian Yun lingering in the afterglow in his arms, Zou Feng called out in satisfaction, "Master Tian..."
Tian Yun shot him a glare. "What did you call me?"
"Uh... Sister Yun?"
"Must you emphasize that I’m older, as if I’ve taken advantage of you?"
"Yun’Er, you’re mistaken. Your husband had no such intention!"
Tian Yun finally broke into a laugh. "Forget it, forget it. Just call me Sister Yun."
’Calling me Yun’Er or something similar is fine in private, but if he suddenly called me that with other people around, even I wouldn’t be able to stand it.’
After a period of tenderness, both Zou Feng and Tian Yun had gotten a taste and wanted more. So, after a short rest, they prepared for a second round.
But just as they were about to start, Tian Yun’s entire body trembled, and a strange expression suddenly appeared on her face.
Seeing this, Zou Feng instinctively asked with concern, "Sister Yun, what’s wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?"
"Zou Lang, guard me now!"
Before her voice had even faded, she moved to a shallower part of the stream and sat down cross-legged.
Although Zou Feng didn’t understand what was happening, he immediately stood up and went on alert.
In reality, there was no disturbance nearby. The small traps Zou Feng had set up earlier weren’t just for show.
’So what on earth is happening to Tian Yun...’
After a brief observation, Zou Feng quickly noticed something.
’It feels like... Sister Yun is about to... have a breakthrough!?’
Realizing this, Zou Feng’s expression immediately turned rather peculiar.
You have to understand, Tian Yun had been stuck at the Half-Step Gang Qi Realm for many years, struggling to take that final step.
During that time, she had tried all sorts of methods, but none of them did a damn bit of good.
That was why she had wanted to go deep into Qifeng Mountain to seek excitement, looking for an opportunity to break through on the brink of death.
Who would have thought that while everything that had happened before was certainly exciting, the final catalyst for her to take that step would be the "fierce battle" with him...
Zou Feng’s speculation was quickly confirmed. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Tian Yun was indeed on the verge of breaking through to the Gang Qi Realm.
This breakthrough was the result of long and patient accumulation; Tian Yun’s foundation was already more than sufficient. All she lacked was a mental and spiritual catharsis.
The recent series of events were all new experiences for a Martial Artist like Tian Yun, who had been raised in a "greenhouse."
The threat from Yuwen Shuo, the Demon Beasts on Qifeng Mountain being raised with Gu Poison, the Ten Directions Sect being framed, the sudden appearance of disciples from the Biyou Palace...
For Tian Yun, all these things were equivalent to experiencing a thrilling and intense grand adventure.
And finally, with her deepest void filled, her state of mind was naturally completely different from before.
Advancing and breaking through became a matter of course.
Next, with Zou Feng witnessing it up close, Tian Yun’s Inner Qi rapidly began to transform into the much sharper Gang Qi.
It was actually very simple to distinguish between Gang Qi and Inner Qi.
Disregarding their power and judging by appearance alone, Inner Qi could only be considered a low-budget special effect.
The special effects produced by the Gang Qi Realm, on the other hand, were at least blockbuster-level.
As the former number one expert of Yuan Guang County, the commotion from Tian Yun’s breakthrough was anything but ordinary, accompanied by a significant "phenomenon."
With her at the center, the surrounding space continuously emitted sounds as if it were collapsing.
At the same time, three token-like illusory images began to appear one after another above Tian Yun’s head.
As her Inner Qi transformed into Gang Qi, the three tokens seemed to solidify into real objects, giving off a solemn and majestic aura that could even inspire an urge to bow in worship.
At the final moment of the Inner Qi’s transformation, the three tokens shattered with a loud CRACK, and Tian Yun’s eyes snapped open.
This time, when she opened her eyes, her gaze was far sharper than before.
It was as if the solemn, majestic feeling from the three tokens had been integrated into her eyes.
It was worth noting that the phenomenon and commotion from Tian Yun’s breakthrough were by no means small.
But thankfully, the thunderstorm from before had not yet ended, so all of these disturbances were perfectly concealed.
"Congratulations, Sister Yun, on achieving the Sixth Grade Gang Qi Realm!"
Seeing that she had truly succeeded, Zou Feng congratulated her sincerely.
Tian Yun gazed at him, her eyes brimming with affection, almost crying with joy. "Zou Lang, this is all thanks to you..."
"No, it was mainly due to your own deep accumulation, Sister Yun!"
Although he was being modest, Zou Feng was quite proud on the inside.
’After all, he had practically manufactured a Gang Qi Realm expert, as if he had unblocked Tian Yun’s Ren and Du Meridians himself.’
Moreover, with Tian Yun breaking through to become a Sixth Grade Martial Artist at this time, it would be a huge help for the two of them to escape their current predicament of being lost.
Seeing Tian Yun cheering like a child who had just received candy, Zou Feng couldn’t help but think of Bian Yixia.
’What if Bian Yixia had asked for his "help" earlier? Maybe she wouldn’t have been stuck at her Realm and would have broken through smoothly as well?’
This bold idea flashed through his mind, and Zou Feng immediately shook his head slightly.
’He had never deliberately thought such messy thoughts before. It must be because he had finally let himself go just now that many bold ideas were bubbling up.’
’But he quickly decided he didn’t need to feel ashamed.’
’He had already transmigrated, so why should he still use the mindset and rules of his previous life to deal with matters between men and women?’
’Besides, with his life-and-death friendship with Bian Yixia, even if she had walked in on him and Tian Yun doing... that, Zou Feng would have dared to be bold and say, "Miss, you’ve come at the perfect time!"’
While Zou Feng was busy making excuses for his own scumbag mentality, the newly-promoted Tian Yun suddenly launched a sneak attack.
Having finally advanced to the Sixth Grade, she naturally wanted to immediately test out her new skills and see just how much stronger she had become.
Seeing this, Zou Feng was completely unafraid and met her challenge head-on.
For their second battle, they fought until the mountain spring water in the stream had nearly evaporated before they finally stopped.
Zou Feng finally had a Gang Qi Realm expert to spar with, and he gained an even deeper understanding of the formidable power of a Sixth Grade Martial Artist.
And Tian Yun, as expected of someone who broke through after long accumulation, was surprisingly strong, far exceeding Zou Feng’s expectations.
Zou Feng could even assert that once Tian Yun spent a little more time adapting to the Gang Qi Realm, in less than ten days, her strength would be enough to soundly defeat the already-dead Wu Xing.
"Zou Lang, this time you helped me fulfill a wish I’ve held for years. It wouldn’t be right if I didn’t return the favor," Tian Yun said suddenly with a serious expression.
Zou Feng shook his head. "Sister Yun, why say such a thing? If we’re talking about returning favors, you’ve already given me a great gift."
Hearing this, Tian Yun gave a charming smile. "No, that’s not enough... By the way, don’t you need Exotic Poison to practice your skill? How about I help you capture a disciple from the Biyou Palace?"
