Inside the quiet room, the air was filled with the gentle fragrance of sandalwood.

As Su Meili was held in Zhou Tian's arms, feeling the warmth from his firm chest and the vast, star-like spiritual energy fluctuations of the Void Refinement stage, her last trace of restraint completely crumbled.

For over two hundred years, she single-handedly supported the Tai Xuan Sword Sect, struggling from the mid-Nascent Soul stage, her origins damaged, and her path to enlightenment almost severed.

If she hadn't met Zhou Tian, ​​that "little rascal," she probably would never have had a chance to break through, let alone now that she has reached the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm and even sees hope for further advancement.

"You little rascal..."

Su Meili raised her beautiful face, her charming peach blossom eyes glistening with tears, filled with longing for a long-awaited reunion and a hint of melancholy.

"You were gone for half a month, and when you came back you brought two beautiful young apprentices with you... Do you even remember me as your master's wife?"

As she spoke, her jade-like fingers gently traced circles on Zhou Tian's chest, her tone coquettish yet revealing deep affection.

Zhou Tian looked down at her, a smile playing on his lips.

"Is your master's wife jealous?"

"Who's jealous!"

Su Meili blushed slightly, turned her face away, but pressed her body even closer to Zhou Tian.

"I'm just... just worried about you encountering danger out there. Qingzhou City may be a small city, but it's a melting pot of all sorts of people, and you like to stir up trouble..."

"Are you looking to stir up trouble?"

Zhou Tian laughed, his large hand sliding down her slender waist and caressing her plump, pert buttocks.

"Is Master's wife referring to the Danxia Sect, or the Li family?"

"We have them all!"

Su Meili's delicate body trembled, her breathing became slightly rapid, but she forced herself to say:

"Destroying an entire clan with a flick of the finger is certainly impressive, but it also easily breeds enmity. And then there's the Danxia Sect... Although I've never been to Qingzhou City, I've heard of their name. Backed by a major sect in Zhongzhou, they wield considerable power. You exposed their cheating in public today, and you've probably already incurred their wrath."

Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Zhou Tian's eyes.

"So what if I hold a grudge? The mere Danxia Sect isn't even worth my attention."

He paused, his tone softening.

"Don't worry, Master's wife, I know what I'm doing. Now that I'm at the Refinement stage, and with the Ice Crystal Jade Dragon protecting me, no one can do anything to me unless a Nascent Soul stage expert comes in person."

"Combination Period..."

Su Meili murmured repeatedly, a hint of disorientation flashing in her eyes.

Once upon a time, the Nascent Soul stage was something that was out of reach for her.

Now, his "disciple" and Daoist partner can openly discuss powerful beings in the Integration Stage.

This change made her feel both gratified and somewhat inexplicably lost.

The good news is that the Tai Xuan Sword Sect finally has hope of rising again.

Disappointingly, the gap in strength between her and Zhou Tian seemed to be widening.

"What is your master's wife thinking about?"

Zhou Tian noticed her change in mood and asked softly.

Su Meili snapped out of her daze, shook her head, and buried her face in his chest.

"It's nothing... I just feel that you've improved too fast, so fast that I'm a little... unable to keep up."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tian understood.

He reached out and lifted Su Meili's chin, making her look at him.

"Why should you belittle yourself, Master's wife? If you hadn't forced me into marriage back then, would I be where I am today? Besides..."

A wicked smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Isn't Master's wife's 'cultivation' also improving very quickly? Mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm, in Qingzhou City, that's already top-tier."

Su Meili's cheeks flushed even redder, and she said reproachfully:

"That's all... all thanks to you..."

"What do you mean, 'rely on me'?"

Zhou Tian deliberately pressed for more information, and his large hand began to wander restlessly.

Su Meili let out a soft moan, her body went completely limp, and her eyes were almost overflowing with desire.

"I rely on you... to help me cultivate..."

Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz, yet it carried an irresistible allure.

Zhou Tian said no more and leaned down to kiss her red lips.

"Hmm..."

Su Meili responded passionately, wrapping her arms tightly around Zhou Tian's neck as if she wanted to merge herself into his body.

Clothes gradually came off.

Her purple gauze dress slipped to the ground, revealing her mature, voluptuous, and exquisitely beautiful body.

Her skin was like white jade, gleaming with a warm luster under the glow of a bright pearl in a quiet room.

Her waist was slender and delicate, yet it formed a breathtaking contrast with her proud, curvaceous figure.

Zhou Tian's breathing was slightly heavy.

Although it wasn't the first time he had seen this body, each time it brought him a completely new shock.

This is the charm of adulthood—it only grows richer and more profound with the passage of time. .

"Master's wife..."

Zhou Tian called out softly, picked her up in his arms, and carried her to the jade bed in the inner room.

Su Meili nestled in his arms, her cheeks flushed, her eyes dreamy yet filled with anticipation.

On the jade couch, Zhou Tian gently laid her down.

But instead of moving immediately, he sat cross-legged behind her, pressing his hands against her back.

"Master's wife, circulate the 'Tai Xuan Heart Sutra,' and I will help you break through."

Su Meili was taken aback upon hearing this, but then she understood.

Zhou Tian intends to use dual cultivation to help her break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm!

A warm feeling welled up in her heart, and she quickly composed herself and began to circulate her internal energy.

Zhou Tian closed his eyes, and the "Secret Records of the Purple Mansion" quietly circulated within his body.

The immense spiritual power of the Void Refinement stage, mixed with the vitality of pure Yang origin and dragon essence, surged into Su Meili's body like a flood bursting its banks.

"Um...."

Su Meili's delicate body trembled violently, and she let out a suppressed groan.

The spiritual energy was too vast, far exceeding the limits she could withstand.
