After arriving at Sea God Island, Yang Yuan and Gu Yuena spent a long time cultivating within the Sea God Temple.
In his spare time, he would also step out of the Sea God Temple to watch the girls struggle as they climbed the steps and chat with them.
Of course, such occasions were rare, as they devoted the vast majority of their time wholeheartedly to cultivation.
When they were resting and relaxing, Yang Yuan and Gu Yuena were usually cultivating; their free time naturally diverged, leaving little opportunity for conversation.
However, their diligent cultivation eventually bore fruit.
In just half a year, Ah Yin had already stepped onto the 181st step and was cultivating there.
Under the pressure and amplification of the Seagod's Light, her spirit power had remarkably broken through from the original Rank 77 to Rank 80.
Besides her, the other four girls had also made significant progress.
Seeing that the girls were on the right track, Yang Yuan planned to return first with Gu Yuena.
After all, the girls would have to stay on Sea God Island for at least several years, and he couldn't stay here forever.
When the girls learned of Yang Yuan's impending departure, though they were reluctant, they quickly accepted it.
A brief parting was only for a better meeting in the future.
Only by becoming strong could they be worthy of Yang Yuan.
No... to be more precise, to be more worthy of Yang Yuan than other women.
Three days before Yang Yuan's departure, the girls stopped cultivating, wanting to spend more time with him in those final three days.
After all, their next meeting might not be for several years.
During these three days, the girls were extremely gentle with Yang Yuan, allowing him to enjoy a taste of imperial treatment.
The night before the parting.
The moonlight was beautiful, the sea breeze was gentle, and under the cover of night, an enchanting figure tiptoed over and pushed open Yang Yuan's door.
As she walked to the bedside, her breathing gradually became heavy, but just as she looked at the man she longed for, she happened to meet a gaze that was half-smiling.
"Sister Dugu, coming to my room in the middle of the night, could it be that you're here to discuss life with me?"
Yang Yuan propped his head up with one hand, teasing her playfully.
In an instant, all of Dugu Yan's courage vanished, and her cheeks turned bright red, like a steamed shrimp.
"I... I entered the wrong room!"
Although she had simulated thousands of possible scenarios in her mind, once Yang Yuan actually discovered her, Dugu Yan's mind went blank, and her first instinct upon coming to her senses was to retreat.
However, now that Yang Yuan's fire had been stoked, how could he let her retreat?
Yang Yuan smiled and said, "Sister Dugu, one must learn to pay for their mistakes. Because of you, I'm feeling quite heated right now. What do you think we should do?"
Dugu Yan's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz: "Then... what do you want to do?"
Yang Yuan lifted the quilt, patted the empty space beside him, and signaled, "Won't you know once you lie down?"
Seeing this, Dugu Yan's face grew even redder, and her mind filled with many scenes unsuitable for children; her charming and heroic face revealed a hint of bashfulness.
But after thinking for only a moment, she climbed onto the bed and lay down beside him under Yang Yuan's somewhat wanton gaze.
Yang Yuan laughed heartily, turning over to press her beneath him.
As their eyes met, Yang Yuan could see the lingering mist in Dugu Yan's eyes, filled with deep affection and love like surging waves.
Thinking carefully, they had known each other for over eleven years, and finally, their relationship had come to fruition.
"Little Brother Xiao Yuan!"
Dugu Yan's eyes were hazy as her clothes fell away one by one, and in a moment, she was like a piece of meticulously carved mutton-fat white jade.
Sounds as melodious as a nightingale's soft cry echoed in the room, like wave after wave in shallow water.
Meanwhile.
In the room next door, Gu Yuena suddenly opened her eyes, her purple pupils exceptionally striking in the darkness.
She looked toward the next room with a surprised gaze; her face showed no extra emotion and remained cold, but two blushes uncontrollably appeared on her cheeks.
The next day.
Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong looked at Dugu Yan in surprise.
"Sister Yanzi, why do I feel like your complexion is much better today than yesterday? Did you sneak some Spirit Pill behind our backs last night?" Ning Rongrong asked suspiciously.
"Spirit Pill?" Dugu Yan stole a glance toward Yang Yuan, her cheeks flushing.
She hadn't taken any Spirit Pill, but as for other things?
Recalling the absurd events of last night, Dugu Yan was too ashamed to raise her head.
But not wanting Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling to notice anything unusual, she could only suppress her shame and say, "It's just your imagination. Maybe it's just because I slept quite well last night."
Her explanation was clearly not enough to convince Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong.
While the former didn't pry, Ning Rongrong was not someone easily fooled; she sensed something was increasingly amiss.
Gu Yuena stood not far away, watching this scene with a calm gaze, saying nothing.
At this time, Yang Yuan spoke up, looking refreshed, "Alright, it's time for us to leave. Cultivate well here, understood?"
Ning Rongrong stepped forward and hugged Yang Yuan's arm, saying, "Don't worry, Brother Xiao Yuan, we will definitely Cultivate well."
Yang Yuan patted Ning Rongrong's head and said gently, "Then I can leave with peace of mind."
Afterward, the girls escorted Yang Yuan and Gu Yuena to the shore of Sea God Island. Bo Saixi also came personally to see him off and even specially arranged a large ship for his return.
Yang Yuan expressed his thanks and boarded the ship with Gu Yuena.
The large ship sailed away with the wind, and Yang Yuan stood on the deck, waving goodbye to the girls.
Dugu Yan watched Yang Yuan's fading figure, her eyes filled with reluctance.
Having tasted pleasure for the first time, she couldn't help but feel obsessed and immersed.
At this moment, Ning Rongrong stepped forward, her beautiful eyes narrowing into slits.
"Sister Yanzi, you're acting suspicious!"
Dugu Yan's heart skipped a beat.
"What's suspicious?"
Ning Rongrong snorted and said, "Stop pretending, I saw through it long ago. Do you really think I don't know what you did last night?"
"You... you know everything!"
"Aha! You really were hiding something from us," Ning Rongrong said loudly.
"You—you tricked me!" Dugu Yan's eyes widened.
Ning Rongrong put her hands on her hips and said, "Tell me, what exactly did you do with Brother Xiao Yuan last night? Was it..."
As she spoke, her cheeks also flushed with two red patches.
She was well-read and knew from books why a woman might suddenly look radiant, which was why she had made such a guess.
Looking at Dugu Yan's expression, she knew she had mostly guessed correctly.
Seeing that she was exposed, Dugu Yan could only tell the truth.
The girls were all shocked, and even Bo Saixi, who was secretly listening, couldn't help but marvel at Dugu Yan's boldness.
But this kind of passionate and daring youth couldn't help but make her reminisce about the past, and she let out a sigh.
If she had been as bold as Dugu Yan back then, Tang Chen probably wouldn't have left.
