Time rewinds to shortly after the conclusion of the Soul Master Tournament, at the Medical Alliance—
After a long period of companionship and numerous trials, Ye Wen had fully accepted those around him as his companions.
As planned, Ye Wen helped Ning Rongrong transform her Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Tower into a Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Tower. As for Ye Lingling and the other women, Ye Wen used his medical knowledge to concoct a batch of side-effect-free pills that fortified their foundations, enhanced their soul power cultivation, and improved their aptitude. Everyone took the pills, and soon, the entire group reached the Soul King level.
However, Ye Wen knew they couldn't afford to slack off. With less than a decade left before Tang San ascended to godhood, every moment counted in their quest to grow stronger. The first step was for Ye Wen to reach the Soul Emperor level, after which he would lead everyone overseas to "cheat" their way through cultivation.
At this point, Ye Wen's cultivation had reached rank 58, just two levels shy of rank 60. However, the trouble with extreme-attribute martial souls lay in the cultivation range between ranks 30 and 70, where progress slowed to a crawl. Ye Wen wondered how the so-called extreme-attribute geniuses in The Peerless Tang Sect managed to reach Title Douluo status so quickly.
Still, this posed no challenge to Ye Wen, whose comprehension was extraordinary. Through his recent training, he gradually mastered a method for rapid cultivation tailored to extreme-attribute soul masters.
But just as Ye Wen was about to implement his new training method, the night before—
Huo Yu'er, clad in a pink lace camisole, stood in front of a full-length mirror, striking alluring poses.
Though her figure had matured somewhat due to the influence of her soul rings, Huo Yu'er still retained the appearance of a bright, youthful girl—innocent yet incredibly enticing. Even she, a goddess-level being, felt a slight flutter in her heart when admiring herself.
Huo Yu'er lightly caressed her slim waist, smiling seductively.
"Hehe, dressed like this and using the improved version of the charm technique I secretly learned from Xiao Wu, there's no way I won't succeed with Teacher. Giggle~"
With everything prepared, Huo Yu'er used her Spirit Eye to check Ye Wen's location. After confirming no one else was around to interfere, she stealthily crept toward Ye Wen's room like a ghost.
But just then—a great terror descended!
Huo Yu'er was immobilized on the spot, unable to move. Yet instead of fear, her beautiful eyes burned with anger.
"Hmhm~"
A sultry laugh echoed from behind Huo Yu'er. Unlike Huo Yu'er's still slightly immature voice, this laughter dripped with experience.
"Little sister, dressed so provocatively, where are you planning to go?"
Bibi Dong spoke with a sweet smile, though her eyes lacked warmth. Her right hand gave Huo Yu'er's rear a sharp pinch, seemingly as payback for something.
Huo Yu'er had already sensed Bibi Dong's presence in Spirit City earlier, but she hadn't expected to be caught red-handed just as she was about to act!
Still, Huo Yu'er knew Bibi Dong wouldn't truly harm her, so she pouted indignantly.
"Bibi Dong, what do you want? Teacher doesn't even know you yet, and I'm busy. Can you let me go?"
Bibi Dong gave Huo Yu'er's backside another light slap and replied coldly:
"You still acknowledge Ah Wen as your teacher? Then how dare you attempt such a disrespectful act."
"I know it's wrong, but Teacher promised me a chance if I found him. So whether or not Teacher is willing isn't something you need to worry about," Huo Yu'er retorted confidently.
Bibi Dong paused, genuinely unaware of this arrangement.
However, she quickly brushed aside Huo Yu'er's words and smirked mischievously.
"Oh, so it's my fault. But we must respect the order of things—first come, first served. Let me taste Ah Wen first."
With that, Bibi Dong licked her luscious red lips, which infuriated Huo Yu'er. She exclaimed in frustration:
"How can you do this? Teacher doesn't even recognize you now! This is no different from forcing yourself on him!"
Bibi Dong didn't respond, only laughing more wickedly. With a wave of her delicate hand, her alluring figure vanished, replaced by a youthful form identical to Huo Yu'er's—but wearing a more seductive purple lace camisole instead of pink.
"Don't worry, Ah Wen will still remember this as your first time in this world. But let me handle the practical part—I'll test the waters for you. That way, you'll know what to expect later."
Living for tens of thousands of years as a God King made Bibi Dong quite the "experienced driver."
Huo Yu'er instantly understood Bibi Dong's intentions and nearly exploded with rage! She tried to spew curses but realized Bibi Dong had silenced her!
Even worse, Bibi Dong turned her invisible and sneaked her into Ye Wen's room.
!!!
Huo Yu'er's face flushed crimson. Though she was a 20,000-year-old maiden, her theoretical knowledge was vast. She immediately grasped the gravity of Bibi Dong's betrayal—not only was this woman stealing her painstakingly nurtured "first harvest," but she was doing it in an especially shameless way. This was too much!
Ye Wen's door creaked open gently.
At this moment, Ye Wen looked up in confusion. Logically, no one should be visiting him at this hour unless it was something urgent.
But upon seeing who it was, Ye Wen felt a sudden warmth in his nose, and his heartbeat thundered loudly in his ears.
"Yu'er, why are you looking for me so late?" Ye Wen asked, averting his gaze.
In the original timeline, Bibi Dong had eloped with Ye Wen after he came of age. Seeing such a youthful and innocent Ye Wen was a first for her, and it only heightened her excitement.
A whiff of fragrant air approached Ye Wen, though it smelled subtly different from Huo Yu'er's usual scent.
This anomaly immediately caught Ye Wen's attention, but before he could react, Bibi Dong launched her attack.
Muffled cries filled the room.
Watching Ye Wen fall under Bibi Dong's spell in an instant, Huo Yu'er's eyes bulged with rage, her mind screaming in protest.
"Ahhh!! This is too much! Not only did she impersonate me, but she also used her divine powers to cloud Teacher's mind! This woman is despicable!"
After a fierce battle, Ye Wen grew (in more ways than one) and fell into a deep sleep. At this point, Bibi Dong released Huo Yu'er, who looked utterly defeated, and said with satisfaction:
"Worthy of my husband—he's so smooth. Now it's your turn, little Yu'er. Welcome to our big family~"
With that, Bibi Dong vanished on the spot.
