"I see. Thank you very much, Miss Shuiyan."
The Heaven Secrets Compass was extremely useful to Yi Yun. He did not know any geomancy mystic techniques, so searching for the Yang spirit in the Sun Burial Sandsea was like searching for a needle in a haystack. However, it was completely different with the Heaven Secrets Compass.
This enchanted treasure was of great help to Yi Yun.
"Oh … and this … These are all the pure Yang divine stones my grandfather left behind. They are all for you, Young Master Yi."
As Ji Shuiyan spoke, she took out an exquisite beast hide pouch from her interspatial ring. She poured out all the divine stones in the pouch. There were a total of eight of them, of varying sizes.
Instantly, the entire room was filled with a rich pure Yang aura.
Yi Yun was delighted when he saw the item. Ignoring the Yang spirit, just the pure Yang divine stones were a huge harvest for him.
Yi Yun knew that the pure Yang divine stones and the Heaven Secrets Compass were of extraordinary significance to Ji Shuiyan. After all, they were relics left behind by her grandfather, not to mention their own value.
"Thank you, Miss Shuiyan. I'll remember this favor."
Yi Yun was a grateful person. He naturally wanted to help the Divine Secrets Trading Company to the end.
"Then … I'll thank you as well, Young Master."
Ji Shuiyan bowed gracefully. Before she turned to leave, she saw that Yi Yun was already sitting cross-legged on the bed. He was using the pure Yang divine stones to cultivate.
Ji Shuiyan stopped in her tracks as she gave Yi Yun a deep look. Her eyes were filled with gratitude and tenderness, as well as a tinge of sadness and reluctance.
Following that, she sighed inwardly as she silently left the bedroom and closed the door …
With the divine tree seed and pure Yang divine stones, Yi Yun's cultivation could only be described as advancing by leaps and bounds.
With the four nine-leaf Dao fruits as a foundation, they were divine objects of the world itself. They could automatically absorb the fragments of the world's laws, so Yi Yun did not need to worry about stabilizing his nomological insights.
Although Yi Yun expended more resources to break through than other warriors, he could directly break through as long as he had natural treasures. That was the heaven-defying advantage of having four nine-leaf Dao fruits!
His heaven-defying cultivation speed could be maintained for a very long period of time. This was something unimaginable for other Dao Manifestation realm warriors.
Under the nourishment of the pure Yang divine stones' Yuan Qi, the divine tree seed began to grow once again.
The tender leaves unfurled, and the Divine Tree Sprout grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. From its original height of a few inches, it slowly grew to nearly a foot.
At the same time, pure Yang Yuan Qi that did not contain any impurities was fed back into Yi Yun's limbs. Yi Yun could feel his cultivation level increasing by leaps and bounds.
He was already at the peak of the early-stages of the Dao Manifestation realm. Now, he had broken through to the mid-stages of the Dao Manifestation realm in one fell swoop. Furthermore, his cultivation level did not decrease at all. It was still increasing, nearing the peak of the mid-stages of the Dao Manifestation realm.
This direct increase in strength made Yi Yun overjoyed.
While Yi Yun was cultivating, his body emitted a pale golden glow. It was not only his body, even the entire room he was in was suffused with golden light. It looked like a miracle had descended.
However, Yi Yun was in the backyard of the Divine Secrets Trading Company. There were layers of security there, preventing anyone from entering. As such, no one saw the phenomenon.
Of course, Ji Shuiyan was an exception …
Excluding the maidservants, only Yi Yun and Ji Shuiyan lived in the backyard.
At that moment, in the dark of the night, Ji Shuiyan was in an unlit room. Through the window, she saw Yi Yun's room light up with a pale golden glow. She fell into a daze.
"Miss, it's time to bathe and sleep."
Ji Shuiyan's personal maidservant reminded her softly. She had noticed that her mistress had been standing by the window for quite some time.
"Alright …"
Ji Shuiyan nodded as she slowly undid the belt around her waist. Her clothes slid off piece by piece, revealing her silky smooth skin and her perfect figure.
The moonlight shone on her skin like silver fragments. Ji Shuiyan raised her slender legs and gently stepped into the bath.
The bath was huge but the water was cold. This was something she had deliberately instructed her to do. To a warrior, this bit of coldness was nothing.
There were flower petals scattered on the water, giving off a faint fragrance. Ji Shuiyan walked gently in the bath, feeling the coldness of the cold water brushing past her thighs.
After a while, she slowly sat down, allowing the cold water to slowly submerge her sparkling skin, her slender waist, her plump peaks, her cheeks, and her hair …..
Finally, she closed her eyes as the water submerged her forehead.
She hugged her knees tightly with her arms. Her folded legs pressed against her soft breasts, forming a beautiful and graceful shape. She just sat quietly in the water, letting the swaying water distort her beautiful face.
Although she had regained control of the Heaven Secrets Trading Company, she still felt a faint sense of loss for some unknown reason.
Perhaps on the day she met Yi Yun, when she was in complete despair from the old woman's torture, his appearance had left an indelible mark on her heart.
She had also thought that if he was not so lofty, she could use the most precious thing in her life to repay his kindness. Although it was called repayment, it was also what she wished for.
She had always been proud and arrogant. She was indifferent to men, but today … she knew that the gap between them was just too great. She did not even have the courage to mention it. Perhaps this was the source of her loss and confusion …
If she had powerful strength and talent that exceeded everything, what would the Divine Secrets Trading Company do? As long as she fulfilled her grandfather's wish, she could roam the world and pursue everything she yearned for.
"Miss …"
Her personal maidservant called out to her but Ji Shuiyan did not get up. Underwater, the world was silent. It made her feel a baffling sense of calm.
…
At that moment, in the Heaven Amplification Trading Company, a finely dressed elder was sitting on a wooden armchair. His expression was terrifyingly gloomy.
The elder was the person in charge of the Heaven Amplification Trading Company — Yan Pingchuan. Due to the sudden turn of events in the Divine Secrets Trading Company, even Yan Pingchuan was alarmed.
"Suspected to be at the fifth-storey Dao Palace realm. Capable of one-shotting Gongyang Nian. Has yet to appear. Looks unknown …"
That was all the information Yan Pingchuan received.
"It's only the fifth-storey Dao Palace realm. Although he's quite strong, it's naive of him to think that he can suppress our entire Heaven Amplification Trading Company alone."
A direct descendant of the Yan family said angrily.
"That's right. There's also that slut, Ji Shuiyan. She actually dared to detain our people and even sever Advisor Yang's limbs. It's her luck to be fancied by the young master. Yet, she doesn't know what's good for her. She's courting death!"
"Old Master, please speak. The Divine Secrets Trading Company was the first to take action. Even if we flatten the Divine Secrets Trading Company, the Seven Star Auction Company will not say a word! This time, all the experts of the Heaven Amplification Trading Company will be mobilized. I refuse to believe that the Divine Secrets Trading Company will not be spared! "
