"Weisi, you're so bad, always teasing me!" Tang Yuehua said coquettishly, though her heart was filled with sweetness. Her heart had already taken the shape of Dai Weisi—now, only her body hadn't followed suit.

"Haha, I'm just telling the truth. Who told you to have such a beautiful name?" Dai Weisi chuckled. But then, recalling his near-death encounter with the Spirit Hall's assassination attempt, his expression turned serious as he gave her a solemn warning.

"Yuehua, there's something else. You're my wife and also the eldest lady of the Clear Sky Clan. Spirit Hall already knows your identity.

Back when the Clear Sky Clan remained secluded, they turned a blind eye. But now that the clan has emerged and allied with the Star Luo Empire, they won't sit idly by. They might even use you as an example to strike fear into others.

So, it's best for you to return to the Clear Sky Clan for now. Ask His Grace Haotian to dispatch two elders and a few elite disciples to constantly ensure your safety. Only then will I be at ease. Otherwise, I absolutely won't agree to you leaving the Star Luo Empire."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua's face turned pale. The memory of Yue Guan's flying dagger brushing past her scalp still sent shivers down her spine. She nodded in lingering fear.

"Weisi, you're right. Thank you for reminding me. I almost overlooked this."

"What are you thanking me for? You're my wife. Isn't it only natural for me to care about your safety? Saying 'thank you' just makes us sound like strangers. Alright, let's continue eating. After the meal, we can talk more seriously about founding the Xingyue Sect."

"Alright."

Tang Yuehua smiled and picked up a slice of lamb with her chopsticks, placing it into her mouth. At the same time, she secretly used soul power to transmit a message to Dai Weisi: "Weisi, there's one more thing I didn't mention. I'll be leaving the Star Luo Empire in a few days. So… tonight, I want to become your woman!"

Dai Weisi: !!!

He could hardly believe his ears. He quickly looked at Tang Yuehua beside him, only to see her pretending to be calm, eating vigorously as if nothing had happened.

But her awkward eating posture gave her away. It was clear her heart was in chaos, and even the tips of her ears had turned red.

Seeing the bashful yet composed façade Tang Yuehua tried to maintain, Dai Weisi couldn't help but laugh silently. Knowing she was shy, he used his soul power to respond: "Alright, Yuehua. From tonight on, you'll be my woman."

Tang Yuehua shyly nodded, her mouth still stuffed with a large piece of lamb. After dinner, Dai Weisi gave Zhu Zhuyun a meaningful glance. She instantly understood and gave Dai Weisi a teasing look, one that said, "I know exactly what's going on."

Then, Zhu Zhuyun stopped Zhu Zhuqing, who wanted to sleep with Dai Weisi, and took her younger sister back to their own room.

As for Dai Weisi, he led Tang Yuehua to his own room. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless one.

"Weisi, I…"

Just thinking about what was about to happen made Tang Yuehua so shy that she couldn't even finish a full sentence. Though she was already over thirty and no longer a maiden, she had never experienced such intimacy before. Her embarrassment was understandable.

Before she could finish her sentence, Dai Weisi kissed her soft, rosy lips and gently whispered, "I understand, Yuehua. You don't need to do anything. Just leave it all to me. Don't worry—I'll be gentle."

"Mm…"

Tang Yuehua nodded firmly, then closed her eyes, secretly looking forward to becoming Dai Weisi's second woman.

The night passed without further words—and even if there were words, they'd be best left unspoken. All that could be said was: it was a passionate night.

Perhaps due to her age, Tang Yuehua didn't feel much pain after their night of passion. After resting for two days, she bid Dai Weisi a tender farewell and was escorted back to the Clear Sky Clan by Zhu Lingyun.

Given his previous experience with Spirit Hall's assassination attempt, Dai Weisi didn't dare let her travel alone, so he had Zhu Lingyun personally accompany her.

Now, there was exactly one year left until the Continental Soul Master Tournament. Dai Weisi was about to begin the next stage of his cultivation.

Time flies like a river, flowing day and night without pause.

And so, a full year passed in the blink of an eye.

A year later, in the desolate mountains near the Calamity Mountain Range, a handsome, blond young man stood before a towering peak.

The surroundings were battered and rugged—craters dotted the landscape, jagged rocks jutted toward the sky, and the summit itself was covered with craters and riddled with cracks, as though it could collapse at any moment.

Everything around was in disarray. Within a ten-mile radius, not a single intact tree remained.

That tall and dashing youth was none other than Dai Weisi. This place was where he had been practicing his Ring Fusion technique. The chaotic landscape around him was a direct result of his training.

"Once more—Ring Fusion!"

In an instant, six soul rings rose into the air and merged above Dai Weisi's head, fusing into a single blood-red ring.

After absorbing the life core of the Dark Devilgod Tiger, the age of all Dai Weisi's soul rings had increased by half.

Now fused into one, this blood-red soul ring's age was approaching 140,000 years.

"Fifth Soul Skill: White Tiger Earth-Cleaving Slash!"

Dai Weisi raised both hands, channeling all his soul power upward. Soul energy surged and gathered at his palms. In that moment, golden light erupted, painting the sky in radiant brilliance.

His soul power condensed into a golden energy blade, which Dai Weisi swung forward in a brilliant arc.

That slash was swift—too fast for the naked eye to follow.

That slash was precise—body and mind aligned, striking at a single, critical point. Even the hardest mountain rock had its weakest spot, and this strike aimed straight for it.

That slash was ruthless—decisive and efficient, with no hesitation. A clean, immediate blow.

The sword's energy stretched thirty thousand miles. One slash froze fourteen provinces.

BOOM!

In the blink of an eye, the golden sword light struck the mountain, and the peak—already fragile—collapsed with a thunderous crash. The towering mountain crumbled into a heap of rubble and debris.

"No wonder it's a hundred-thousand-year soul skill—truly powerful!" Dai Weisi admired the destruction with excitement, a deep sense of accomplishment welling up inside him.

After fusing his rings, the power of White Tiger Earth-Cleaving Slash had increased more than tenfold—far beyond what most hundred-thousand-year soul skills could achieve.

"Now that I've mastered Ring Fusion, with my current strength, there probably isn't a single opponent below the Titled Douluo level who can defeat me."

He was now a Level 67 Power Attack System Battle Soul Emperor. If not for the long time spent mastering the Ring Fusion secret technique, his soul power might have already reached Level 68.

But all of it had been worth it. Learning Ring Fusion had pushed his strength to new heights.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!"

Just then, the sound of thunderous battle cries echoed from below the cliff. More than ten thousand armored soldiers were drilling in formation—it was the White Tiger Legion.

With Spirit Hall's attention focused on the Clear Sky Clan, Dai Weisi had taken this opportunity to expand the White Tiger Legion to a force of 100,000.

At the same time, Grandmaster Lou Gao had developed many powerful new firearms, which had been fully integrated into the White Tiger Legion's arsenal.
