Rumour
When Linfeng truly woke up, he found himself lying with his back against the grass wearing nought but his birthday suit. Mala was sleeping not too far to the young cultivator’s right–And Yen'mila… She was busying herself gobbling down Linfeng’s rod. Said rod had long since lost any form of hardness, but the female cultivator did not seem to mind playing with the limp equipment.
She soon noticed that Linfeng had awoken.
“Oh, hello there!”
“What the hell…”
Linfeng was torn between asking what had happened or what was happening, but ended up saying nothing as Yen'mila stood up.
“You have my thanks, Linfeng. Thanks to your valiant efforts, I am finally free to leave this place. This tree, which I have been bound to for so long… It is time to say goodbye to it. I have successfully become half-dryad, possessing the advantages without the downsides… I have truly become an elite cultivator!”
She laughed with her hands on her hips as Linfeng struggled to sit up. His entire body was aching for some reason. He hadn’t felt so beaten up since he had had the misfortune of meeting Anoteros.
‘System… What the hell happened? I barely remember anything after I first arrived here…’
You tried to fight this spell cultivator, but were immediately struck by a floral spell that sort of controlled your mind... It didn't literally take over your mind, but it affected your behaviour strongly enough that you pretty much completely forgot about fighting, and instead started pounding the hell out of Mala alongside her
…Yes, she can grow a plant-based cock. I don’t know how that works exactly, but it seems very realistic. Anyway, after Mala was done for, I… Well, let’s just say that I took matters into my own, non-existent hands, and puppeteered your body to make you dual cultivate with her
This is probably why your muscles are so sore. I made your Yang surge, and I must admit that my way of piloting your body might have been a little wrong, so I probably exerted too much force on your muscles
That’s my bad, I don’t have a body myself, so it was my first time, and I just went off instinct
‘...Why… Why the hell did you feel the need to use my body to do it with this woman?!’
Listen, Linfeng. She’s a rare sort. Not only is she a cultivator with a true specialisation in a single type of energy, but due to her cultivation technique–Which has made her into a human-dryad hybrid–Her Yin has become completely aligned with nature energy. It is still being digested, but I assure you, it is very much worth it
Different types of Yin can bring different effects beyond enhancing your cultivation level... Here is the greatest aspect of your body and Primordial Yang Emperor Physique. With how many different kinds of Yin and Yang there can be, your growth can basically be infinite!
‘Right… I hear you, but what does Yin crossed with nature energy do for me, exactly?’
On top of being more nourishing than plain old Yin, it will allow you to boost your natural regenerating factor. In terms of Yin types who do this for you, it is the most common. However, its effects are still noticeable, especially since this woman’s Yin in particular is fully merged with nature energy
‘Right… But she still Viotted Mala, and made me participate in it!’
Don’t even bother, Linfeng. You couldn’t beat her before, and you definitely can’t beat her now... You shouldn’t go to war with her, but make love! I wasn’t expecting her to stick around after you passed out for good. Do you know what this means?
Linfeng wanted to sigh very loudly, but expanding his lungs too much hurt his ribs right now.
‘You want me to keep her around? But she seems a bit… Unstable’
Aren’t men supposed to love crazy women?
‘Where the hell did you get this idea from?’
Crazy or not, it doesn’t matter. Aren’t you a man? Make her submit to you. She clearly enjoyed the time she spent with you, so convince her to join you and Mala, and then, make sure to turn her submissive by bedding her!
‘I doubt things work like this…’
Idiot. It worked well with Mala, didn’t it? And you are the one who will cultivate Primordial Yang Emperor Physique! Do you think a Yang emperor wouldn’t be able to turn a woman obedient with just a few bedly sessions? Her Yin is too valuable to give up on. Can you imagine how powerful you could become with free access to this Yin and Mala’s Yang? Remember why you are on this Journey, Linfeng
‘Right…’
He was seeking strength to free Fingmi from the grasp of Edrick Lucien Anoteros. Indeed, the completion of his goal was too important for him to hesitate on such a matter. Even if Yen'mila was a despicable person, she did have value to him…
“Say… What is your name?”
Linfeng might have heard it during the whole debacle, but if he did, he had forgotten it.
“My name is Yen'mila, darling~”
Linfeng coughed into his fist.
“You want to explore the world, right? What do you say about joining Mala and me? We’ll be moving around a fair bit, and we could use some help”
“Ooh~ Are you…? Heheh… Sure! But I hope that the three of us will be enjoying a… Close relationship”
Yen'mila licked her teeth and lips as she said this.
“I don’t have any objections to that”
‘That’s what I want too anyway’
“Alright then! Let’s get the hell out of this place. Is the twinkish cutie awake?”
Mala was only barely waking up, and he was still covered in gunk.
The former bandit looked around, his eyes blinked more often than normal.
“...Uuh… Where the hell are we, Linfeng? And why do I look like thirty men performed a Lagneiefest on me?!”
At the moment, Mala was remembering what had happened clearly.
“It’s a bit of a long story… Let’s get you cleaned up and dressed, alright?”
The group exited the underground, one member stronger than when they came in.
“Yen'mila, is there a miraculous healing herb in this forest?”
“No, why do you ask?”
“That’s the reason so many bandits were here to begin with. I thought you were the one who had started the rumour to bring them to you”
“I wish! But I couldn’t do anything but wait for suitable sources of nourishment to show up on my doorstep. I have been controlling some native plant creatures to bring me things, but even then, it would have taken me much longer to wrap things up if not for so many people showing up”
“I see”
‘Who the hell started this rumour then, and why?’
