After a brief chat with Zhou Fan, the Demon Venerable prepared to leave. Two millennia of solitude made her unaccustomed to interacting with others; she now only wanted to find a place to be alone.
But Zhou Fan had no intention of letting Chiyang leave just like that. Her aura was weak, her strength was less than one percent, and with such severe injuries, even with a dragon's recovery ability, it would be difficult for her to fully heal.
Zhou Fan offered to treat Chiyang's injuries, but the Demon Venerable, with a touch of arrogance, declared, "Don't bother."
Faced with such a tsundere female dragon, Zhou Fan had no choice but to once again exercise his authority as her Master.
Amidst Chiyang's startled cry, he picked her up by the waist and brought her back to the upper level of the Abyssal Void with him.
After reuniting with the three dumbfounded individuals, Zhou Fan cast a Spell to conceal the incredibly shy Chiyang's figure. When questioned by the three, Zhou Fan simply said that he had formed a contract with the Demon Venerable, and she was now an ally, and he needed to heal her injuries.
Xuanyuan Qingyu, upon hearing this, quickly took out several precious Rank 4 Medicinal Pills for healing. Zhou Fan did not refuse, accepting the healing Medicinal Pills. He first gave one to Chiyang, and after she had fully absorbed it, he fed her a second one.
While feeding the Demon Venerable the medicine, Zhou Fan and the three returned to Antique Town.
After reserving four excellent guest rooms, Zhou Fan led his Fairy Master, who still had some injuries, into a large bed room.
Chiyang had now recovered her ability to move, so Zhou Fan let her go to the room opposite to take her Medicinal Pills and heal.
As soon as the door closed, Zhou Fan was pushed onto the bed by an impatient Nangong Wan.
"Master, what are you doing? Aren't you still injured?"
Listening to Zhou Fan's rhetorical question, Nangong Wan began to move closer, saying, "Bad disciple, do you think I, your Master, having tasted it so many times, wouldn't know the effects of the Great Sun Essence?"
"Not only can it help those below your Realm improve their Cultivation, but it also has a certain healing effect, right?"
Nangong Wan obsessively sniffed her disciple's scent, recalling Zhou Fan's display of Divine Might at the bottom of the Abyssal Void not long ago, where he, by himself, captured the Demon Venerable, showing the stance of a true powerhouse.
She chuckled foolishly, then leaned into Zhou Fan's ear and whispered, "Bad disciple, today I want to see your Bawang form. Tomorrow, show your Master your Great Sun form, alright?"
Zhou Fan had always been respectful of his Master. Now that his Fairy Master had given an order, how dared he disobey? He could only instantly grow taller, his muscles bulging, at least twice as large as his normal state.
After truly experiencing the power of Zhou Fan's form, his Fairy Master's mouth hadn't closed once.
...
The symphony played for nine days straight. Luan Feng Immortal's injuries were completely healed, and she also fell into a coma.
Next door, Xuanyuan Empress had not only been healing her internal injuries these past few days but also seemed to have Cultivated many powerful water-element Spells, requiring a change of daily necessities every other day.
On the other side, Qin Li's Cultivation had progressed further, and he was now not far from the Core Formation Realm.
Chiyang in the opposite room left without saying goodbye on the seventh day. She left a small note, on which she had scrawled accusations against her 'wicked Master' in the Human Race language she had just learned. The insults lacked any real destructive power but were rather cute.
Below the note was an exquisite Dragon scale. Through this Dragon scale, Zhou Fan and Chiyang could communicate at any time.
"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for becoming a close friend and the love of his life with Qin Li's mother, the Son of Destiny. Apart from the Host, Luan Feng Immortal Nangong Wan's heart can no longer hold any other friends."
"Now granting the Host 15,000 Luck points! Please continue to work hard, Host, and achieve both physical and spiritual abundance!"
Suddenly hearing the System's message, Zhou Fan opened his panel and took a look.
"Host: Zhou Fan
Luck: 33,800 points
Body Refining Realm: Elemental Transformation Early Stage
Qi Refining Realm: Core Formation Early Stage
Physique: Great Sun Royal Body, Extreme Overlord Body (Beginner Stage)
Spiritual Root: Inferior Yin Spiritual Root
Cultivation Technique: Yin Yang Dao Dian · Basic Chapter (Perfection), Yin Yang Dao Dian · Advanced Chapter · One (Major Achievement), Bawang Jue (Minor Achievement)
Lifespan (Remaining): 920 years
Dao Companion: Yaya (1/4)
Dao Companion Buff: Qi Refining Cultivation speed increased to 3 times the original.
Offspring: 992 (No Spiritual Root) / 9 (Inferior, Ordinary Spiritual Root) / 0 (Unborn)
Immortal Cultivation Arts: Alchemy (Rank 3), Artifact Refining (Rank 2), Formation (Rank 1), Talismans (Rank 1)
Evaluation: Fierce and Peerless, Lesser Sun and Yin."
After his Body Refining Realm broke through to Rank 4, he still had 2,800 Luck points remaining. Killing the Old Sword Master and integrating the Qiankun Sword Sect gave him a total of 16,000 Luck points. Now, his Fairy Master's affection reaching maximum gave him another 15,000 Luck points.
Currently, with 33,800 Luck points in hand, it was still too little, just enough to buy 1/3 of the Intermediate Stage Extreme Overlord Body.
Zhou Fan's Physical Body was so powerful precisely because it had the double Physical Body enhancement of the Great Sun Royal Body and the Extreme Overlord Body.
If he had the Intermediate Stage Extreme Overlord Body during his fight with the Demon Venerable, Zhou Fan estimated that he would only need to activate the Bawang stage to defeat the Demon Venerable.
Closing the panel, Zhou Fan suddenly thought of a question.
"System, how exactly is this Dao Companion buff calculated? What kind of woman should I form a Dao Companion relationship with to get the highest buff?"
"Reporting to Host! The more perfect the woman you form a Dao Companion relationship with, and the deeper the bond between you, the more buffs you can receive."
"In this world, the upper limit for Dao Companion buffs is three times."
"If I form a Dao Companion relationship with my Fairy Master, what buff can I get?"
"Analyzing... Ding! Reporting to Host, it is a 2 times increase in Yin and Yang Dao related Cultivation speed."
"Why isn't it 3 times?"
"Reporting to Host! Although Nangong Wan's appearance, figure, and Aptitude are all top-notch, she was already a married woman before meeting the Host, so she can only provide a 2 times buff."
"System, your understanding is outdated. A married woman is clearly a bonus now."
"Σ(°△°|||) Sorry, Host, my underlying logic was programmed this way when I was created. When the Host reaches the pinnacle of this world and becomes an Immortal, you should be able to completely control me and modify the underlying logic of this System."
"Alright, then what buff does Chiyang give?"
"Reporting to Host! 3 times Physical Body strength buff."
"This is good. It's just that forming a Dao Companion relationship requires mutual consent. Is it still too late to cancel Chiyang's short vacation now?"
Zhou Fan thought for a moment, then continued to ask.
"What buff does Silent Sword Fairy Luo Ningshuang give?"
"Reporting to Host! 3 times Sword Dao Cultivation speed buff."
"Practicing swords?" Zhou Fan once loved swords very much. In the years he was a great hero in the Fan Realm, he always used a sword against his enemies.
But now, he preferred the pleasure of close-quarters combat and had little interest in Sword Dao.
"Shen Yufu, Fu Fu Jie, what buff does she give?"
"Reporting to Host! Due to her insufficient Aptitude, she only provides a 2 times water Spiritual Root Cultivation speed buff."
