Nine Nether Dragon Emperor-Chapter 317 Obedience that Breaks the Heart!

Chapter 317: Chapter 317 Obedience that Breaks the Heart!

Outside Tuifan City, by the edge of Soul Severing Cliff, Yuan Xueying and her disciple, Yuan Yurong, stared intently at Ning Xuan.

After biting her lip, Yuan Yurong spoke directly to him. "Young Master, could you carry me down?"

Even before they had arrived, they could see pure energy surging toward the sky. Upon reaching the cliff’s edge, they instantly felt the energy within their bodies stir. The shackles imposed by the Tianyang Realm’s Turbid Qi were disappearing! Yearning to restore their strength, the two women could hardly wait to jump down.

Beside her disciple, Yuan Xueying’s face was a mask of indecision as she bit her lip. However, she quickly made up her mind. "Um, you already called me Auntie, shouldn’t you take me down too?"

At that moment, Yuan Xueying felt a strange sense of gratitude toward her disrespectful disciple. If that girl hadn’t covered my mouth just now, who knows what horrible things I might have blurted out!

"Alright, Auntie Xue." As Ning Xuan spoke, he opened his arms.

Yuan Xueying was terribly torn, but the desire for power made her step forward involuntarily. A pair of strong hands wrapped around her waist, and before she could process what was happening, she was soaring through the air. Amidst her cries of alarm, she instinctively twisted to the side and burrowed into Ning Xuan’s embrace, nearly squeezing her unfilial disciple out from the other side.

Up above, Zhongli Ruoruo blinked and murmured to herself, "A stunningly beautiful master and disciple pair... That’s a lot of pressure!"

However, the moment her feet touched the ground, all other thoughts vanished from her mind. It was the same for Yuan Xueying and Yuan Yurong. Before them stood a Divine Crystal as imposing as a towering mountain. The energy here was more abundant and purer than anything they had ever experienced. Without a second thought, the three women immediately began to cultivate.

「An hour later.」

Yuan Xueying and Yuan Yurong stood up one after the other, both of them thrilled. Not only had their cultivation been restored, but it had even risen to a new level.

Yuan Xueying hadn’t forgotten their earlier exchange. Her first instinct was to find Zhongli Ruoruo. Then, she froze.

The aura emanating from Zhongli Ruoruo was absurdly powerful.

"She... she..." Looking at Ning Xuan, Yuan Xueying was at a loss for words.

"You’re not sensing things wrong. She has reached the Emperor Realm." To avoid discouraging her, Ning Xuan didn’t reveal Zhongli Ruoruo’s true Cultivation Realm. After all, Zhongli Ruoruo had only recovered to the Third Layer Heavens of the Emperor Realm.

"Young Master, I want that too," Yuan Yurong whined, pressing up against him and shaking his arm. She had just entered the King Realm, while her rival was already in the Emperor Realm. And her rival was so adept at this sort of thing. Gripped by an unprecedented sense of crisis, Yuan Yurong would have done something even more outrageous if her master hadn’t been there.

This time, Yuan Xueying didn’t stop her. Instead, she looked on with an envious expression. She wanted to become stronger too. The memory of her earlier words made her face burn with embarrassment.

How shameful! I, a King Realm Martial Artist, actually wanted to teach an Emperor Realm powerhouse a lesson... How mortifying!

Ning Xuan’s next words, however, threw her heart into turmoil.

"This can’t be rushed. What you need now is not to improve your cultivation, but to stabilize it. After all, we can’t stay here forever."

At his words, the expressions of both master and disciple changed drastically. Only then did they remember that a sanctuary like this couldn’t possibly last forever in the world they were in. Once they left, their Cultivation Realms would be suppressed by the Turbid Qi once more.

"Young Master, you must have a way, right? She doesn’t seem to be affected at all!" Yuan Xueying stepped before Ning Xuan. After glancing at Zhongli Ruoruo not far away, she fixed her hopeful gaze on him.

Before Ning Xuan could respond, Yuan Yurong’s voice transmission entered his mind. "Young Master, what do you think of my master?"

"What do you mean?"

"I asked her just now. She doesn’t even know what a kiss is, you know."

Ning Xuan’s heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively replied, "So?"

"So, I’ve decided to introduce her to you! When no one’s around, I’ll start calling you ’Master-Dad’. Of course, if you’re uncomfortable with that, I can just call you ’Daddy’."

Yuan Yurong’s words almost made Ning Xuan lose his composure entirely.

Damn! Did Zhongli Ruoruo just say Yuan Yurong doesn’t understand romance? Give me a break! She’s clearly an expert at this! I can’t handle this! I absolutely can’t handle this!

Ning Xuan, you have to control yourself!

After taking a deep breath to compose himself, Ning Xuan announced joyfully, "I’ve got it!"

"What is it?" Yuan Xueying immediately pressed.

Ning Xuan gestured to Yuan Yurong with a crook of his finger. "Come here."

"Alright, Daddy!" In front of Ning Xuan, Yuan Yurong simply didn’t know how to refuse.

"What did you call him?!" Yuan Xueying thought she had misheard.

"She said, ’Alright!’" Ning Xuan quickly covered. Then, he pressed Yuan Yurong down. Not giving her another chance to speak, he activated his Azure Dragon Bloodline.

Simultaneously, a black stream of energy shot across the sky and entered Yuan Yurong’s delicate body. This was the result of Ning Xuan infinitely purifying the Turbid Qi of the Tianyang Realm. The Azure Dragon Bloodline was all-encompassing, bestowing its grace upon all things with its endlessly regenerative power. Ning Xuan’s method was simple: force Yuan Yurong’s body to fully adapt to the Turbid Qi. As long as her body developed sufficient resistance and was fortified with enough pure Element Force, she could overcome the realm’s suppression.

Even with the Azure Dragon Bloodline as a safety net, it was still a violent transformation. Ning Xuan had been worried that Yuan Yurong wouldn’t be able to endure it. Who would have known she was so tenacious? Though her delicate features twisted in agony and sweat streamed down her face, she remained utterly silent.

Nearby, Yuan Xueying wasn’t worried at all; she was completely dumbfounded. She had never imagined a solution so direct and brutal. Of course, even if she could have imagined it, no one else could have accomplished it. Condensing Turbid Qi into a focused stream was easy to say, but this was the Tianyang Realm, and this specific place was an absolute cesspool of the realm’s filth. Yuan Xueying was certain that even a great expert from the Tianyang Realm couldn’t have managed it with Ning Xuan’s level of composure.

As for the possibility of Ning Xuan failing? She hadn’t entertained the thought for a second. There was a unique quality about him, an aura that put her completely at ease.

After an unknown amount of time, Ning Xuan’s voice sounded in her ear. "Alright, your turn."

Staring at the face so close to her own, Yuan Xueying’s cheeks flushed, and she instinctively took a step back. "Why are you... like this!"

With her usual temperament, she should have been furious, but after the words left her mouth, she suddenly realized. Doesn’t that sound exactly like flirting?

Even without Ning Xuan lifting a finger, she had already taken a seat obediently. Her obedience was so absolute, it would have pained anyone familiar with her to witness it.

Even Ning Xuan was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly focused his mind on the task of her transformation.

Nearby, the reborn Yuan Yurong watched with a hint of jealousy, noticing that Ning Xuan was much gentler with her master.

"You clearly want to, but you don’t dare admit it, hypocrite..." she muttered under her breath.

Suddenly, a hand clamped over her mouth as Zhongli Ruoruo pulled her backward into the shadows.

Just as she was about to struggle, Zhongli Ruoruo’s sharp warning came. "Stop it. Something’s wrong!"

Yuan Yurong immediately went still. And at that exact moment, she heard the sound of footsteps.
