Time flew by, and another month passed.

In that month, Yino didn't do anything special to prepare; his life revolved around his cultivation at Ranmo Peak. Every day, besides taking the pills from the head of Hundred Spirits Pavilion, he practiced his swordplay in the yard, played chess with his senior sister at night, and regularly drained the spirit energy from the poor little deer. But above all, his greatest joy was winding down each evening with a little interaction with his senior sister, nurturing their

bond

.

After all, for Yino, having the title of Sword Saint thanks to his sword holy dao physique meant he had to work hard so his senior sister would look at him in awe. Wouldn't it be a waste of emotional value if he didn't?

In fact, his natural talent in swordsmanship truly filled the last gap in his abilities. Now, not only did he make Yuyan concede in chess, but he also astonished her every time he practiced his swordplay.

Yuyan found Yino's talent to be quite strange.

She taught him a sword technique, and he not only learned it but also created other derivative versions of the skill. These various sword combos even made him seem more innovative than Yuyan herself.

Often, when they discussed swordsmanship, Yuyan was mesmerized by Yino's flashy combinations.

It wasn't that his tricks could harm her.

It was the concept of combining sword techniques.

Yuyan never realized that two seemingly useless moves could actually have a greater than one plus one effect in the right context.

She had to admit, Yino's mind was truly sharp. These niche techniques were usually ignored by other sword cultivators, but Yino could come up with all sorts of odd tricks.

Apart from his innovations, another thing that surprised Yuyan was Yino's straightforward, almost legendary cultivation speed.

Every time she thought she had laid out a long-term cultivation plan for him, he would break through halfway through, leaving Yuyan no choice but to reward him daily as promised.

From the initial dance to later back massages, to now Yino massaging her...

It seemed like at some point, the nature of the reward had changed.

Initially, it was Yuyan rewarding Yino, but now, instead of serving him, it had become Yino giving Yuyan leg and foot massages every night, making her enjoy lying in bed.

But it was strange!

Wasn't Yino rewarding her now?

Over time, Yuyan started to feel something was off.

It seemed like Yino was cultivating not for himself but to massage her each night.

But...

She didn't want to bring it up, as it was a win-win situation.

Yino willingly massaged her, and she didn't have to dance or scrub his back.

Plus, Yino's hands were really dexterous; his massages were not only comfortable but also precisely targeted the acupoints, making her cold body feel warm and supple, and her senses even sharper. Combined with his red sugar tonic, Yuyan felt her meridians and cultivation had improved.

For Yuyan, who was at a Nascent Soul bottleneck, this was a rare nourishment!

Why would she ever refuse?

And so, over time, this reward activity became a tacit understanding between Yuyan and Yino.

"Senior Sister, would you like another massage tonight?"

On the last night before they parted, Yino brought in a tray of colorful ointments.

Just last night, the Immortal Alliance announced a new large-scale secret realm investigation - the Azure Forest.

The Azure Forest was actually the main storyline of the second volume of the game.

This secret realm was way tougher than Gu Wanglan's, as a Full Moon Sect Holy Maiden would make her debut and clash with players at the final stage.

In the past, Yino might have hesitated.

But for the current, fully buffed Yino, wasn't the Azure Forest just a gift stage? The main character was dead, so who else was there to compete with him for opportunities and experience?

If luck was bad and he encountered the Full Moon Sect Holy Maiden, he could just run.

Yino believed she wouldn't chase him down, as she had something big to do in the Azure Forest according to the original plot. As long as he ran fast, she probably wouldn't bother playing hide and seek with him.

After considering everything, Yino told Yuyan about the secret realm that night.

The Azure Forest, being a regularly opening secret realm, had restrictions for entrants, allowing only cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, which naturally made Yuyan concerned.

So, last night, she had a serious discussion about swordplay with Yino.

After a strict assessment, she concluded that Yino, at the early Core Formation stage, could easily defeat his peers and had enough strength to escape if faced with someone half a realm higher.

With this in mind, Yuyan eventually agreed to Yino's request.

Tonight was their last night together.

Yino, carrying jars and bottles, entered the room, planning to give his senior sister one last powerful dose of his

medicine

.

"Go ahead, I've been feeling a bit blocked in my dantian today."

Yuyan, seeing the jars and bottles in Yino's hands, shrugged off her jacket and sat on the edge of the bed in a casual, one-piece dress.

She sat down, no longer feeling uncomfortable, gave Yino a nod, and when he closed his eyes, she promptly removed her black stockings, turned around, propped her chin on her hands, and naturally positioned her well-maintained, soft, and translucent jade feet.

After all, she had experienced this many times.

The first time Yino massaged her, Yuyan felt quite embarrassed, and her skin was sensitive and warm.

But after a while, her body got used to the warmth of Yino's hands, and the feeling of embarrassment was replaced by the comfort of having her entire body unblocked.

Now, Yuyan trusted Yino with her back, closing her eyes without any defenses, fully prepared to enjoy the massage.

"Senior Sister..."

"I've been hitting the books at the Scripture Pavilion a lot lately and researched a new massage technique..."

"How about you try it out on our last night together?"

Yino stood behind her, staring at her shiny feet, his cheeks flushed with a hint of red.

Yuyan only paused for a moment before agreeing without turning her head:

"Go ahead"

"Then..."

Yino brought a step stool, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently lifted busty woman's white, soft foot.

Merging his fingers in front of his chest, he first dabbed them in the prepared ointment and then infused them with his energy to refine it instantly.

Finally, Yino slowly spread the essence on his fingertips over the sole of her foot.

His fingers glided lightly, drawing a complex and intricate blood lotus on the tender flesh of her foot-
