Yu Qing's requirements for the two women were clear and firm: a single session of the " Blood Burning Meditation Method " cultivate must last at least one hour. This was not only to maximize the efficiency of the cultivate, but also to avoid the risk of Qi blood repeatedly boiling and flowing backwards, injuring the Meridians.
"Husband..." Duan Xin's face was pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. His voice was broken and intermittent due to pain. "How...how did you...come up with such a...torturous cultivation method?" It's like building the increase of cultivation directly on the intensity of pain. The more it hurts, the faster the spiritual power increases!
"To become stronger." Yu Qing's answer was simple yet weighty. "As long as it's not an evil path that harms heaven and earth, I've tried every possible method." This was no exaggeration. With his innate soul power at only level three, even after consuming countless Heaven and Earth Treasures and absorbing spirit rings beyond the limit, his cultivation speed remained hopelessly slow. Improving and fusing various meditation methods, even borrowing from some inhuman cultivation techniques, only made him one or two times faster than ordinary meditation methods. However, the Blood Burning Meditation Method, a painful yet efficient method rewarded by the System, could achieve a cultivation speed up to ten times faster.
"I understand!" Zi Ruyi endured the burning pain within her body, but her eyes were unusually firm. "Don't worry, my husband, we will definitely overcome this! This pain is nothing compared to catching up with you!"
After the two women had recovered a little, Yu Qing's fingertips flashed with light, and two vibrant golden-purple leaves appeared—the first Spirit Ability: Full of Vitality - Purple Sun Leaf!
With the Spirit evolving to its highest level and the Spirit Ring's age increasing, the effect of this first Spirit Ability was enhanced by fifty percent. The leaf melted instantly upon entering their mouths, and pure life energy flowed throughout the two women's bodies in an instant. All the fatigue and discomfort caused by the Blood Burning Meditation were swept away in an instant, and their condition was instantly restored to full!

"Huh?" Duan Xin was surprised as she sensed the changes within her body, then noticed the first spirit ring at Yu Qing's feet, which had turned as black as ink. "Husband, your first spirit ring... how did it become ten thousand years old?"
Yu Qing smiled slightly, keeping it a secret for now: "Well... it'll be a secret for now. I'll tell you after we're officially married, okay?"
Although the two women were filled with curiosity, as if cat claws were scratching at them, upon hearing the word "marriage," their sweetness overcame their doubts, and they obediently nodded: "Yes, we can wait!"
...
Time flies, and it's already morning.
As usual, Yu Qing got up early to prepare a sumptuous Medicinal Cuisine breakfast. She called A Rou over, and the four of them enjoyed the meal before checking out and setting off.
Outside the inn, the "Wind Chaser" carriage was ready. Yu Qing wanted to drive it himself, but Duan Xin and Zi Ruyi firmly stopped him.
"My husband is of such high status, how can he be a stable boy? Not even temporarily!" The two women were unusually firm in their stance.
Finally, with Yu Qing's reluctant consent, they hired a seemingly honest and simple-minded coachman in town. At first, the coachman hesitated when he heard that they were going on a long journey, but when Duan Xin and Zi Ruyi quietly released the spirit power fluctuations at the Spirit King level, the coachman immediately nodded vigorously and eagerly accepted this "good job".
With a professional driver, Yu Qing was happy to relax, sitting in the spacious carriage with three beautiful women of different styles. The driver, seeing this through the curtain, was almost filled with envy.
The carriage moved slowly forward, and the scenery along the way changed. Yu Qing felt a little bored, so he took the initiative to start a conversation with the three women.
They chatted about local customs and traditions, as well as strange and wonderful stories from Spirit Master's world. Even A Rou shared many interesting experiences from the Star Dou Great Forest. The carriage was filled with laughter and a harmonious atmosphere.
Before we knew it, the topic of conversation had returned to Yu Qing.
"Ah Xin, Ah Zi," A Rou asked Dao softly, her pink eyes sparkling with curiosity, "How did you two meet Yu Qing? And how did you two get together?" What she really wanted to ask was how they could so naturally accept sharing a partner.
Zi Ruyi's face flushed with a gentle blush: "My husband saved our lives. If it weren't for his help, we would have been reduced to ashes long ago."
"Is it merely because you saved my life?" A Rou pressed.
The two women smiled at each other, shook their heads, and their eyes were full of happiness: "My husband is so learned and talented, he seems to be omnipotent."
"He is powerful yet upright, and never bullies the weak."
"And... he's also so handsome."
"Tell me, how many women in this world could remain unmoved by a man like this?"
Although their conversation was soft, every word reached Yu Qing's ears. He felt both gratified and somewhat helpless.
As A Rou listened to the two women's descriptions, her gaze involuntarily fell on Yu Qing again. She had to admit, they were absolutely right. Apart from being a bit "lustful" (but also extremely principled), this man was almost flawless.
At this moment, A Rou felt an indescribable and unique charm emanating from Yu Qing, which deeply attracted her and made her heart beat faster involuntarily.
Is this... what it feels like to fall in love?
But... what should I do?
I am a Spirit Beast in Human Form, and I have a daughter named Xiao Wu... Can he accept me as I am?
If he accepts... how am I supposed to face Xiao Wu afterward? Did I really find her a stepfather after all this time?
The budding feelings were instantly suppressed by the heavy reality. A Rou's eyes dimmed again, burying the quietly growing emotions deep within her.
...
The journey continued day after day. At night, sometimes they would make do in a horse-drawn carriage, and sometimes they would find a village to stay in a guesthouse.
It wasn't until the fourth day that the group encountered a decent town. Yu Qing immediately decided to enter the town to rest for a day.
After finding a hotel, Yu Qing, as usual, prepared a Medicinal Cuisine feast for the three women, and then thoughtfully prepared a Medicinal Bath to relieve their fatigue.
After A Rou returned to her room, Yu Qing, Duan Xin, and Zi Ruyi began their "required course" every three days— Dual Cultivation.
[+500 yin yang points, a small amount of spirit power, a small amount of Yin-Yang Power ]
[+500 yin yang points, a small amount of spirit power, a small amount of Yin-Yang Power ]
After two highly effective Dual Cultivations, Yu Qing considerately refrained from further stimulating the two women. This way, they could enjoy the ultimate pleasure and enhancement without affecting their plans for the next day.
This was followed by the routine spirit power compression and purification, and Yin-Yang power refining. Afterwards, Duan Xin's spirit power steadily increased to level 57, while Zi Ruyi's spirit power climbed to level 59, just one step away from becoming Spirit Emperor!
The two women then resumed their practice using the Blood Burning Meditation Method. This time, they broke through the 20-minute mark, experiencing even greater pain but also reaping greater rewards.
"Level 59!" After finishing her meditation, Zi Ruyi, despite the pain making her gasp for breath, couldn't help but grin. At this rate, by the time she returned to the Zi Family, she would definitely be a level 60 Spirit Emperor!
...
The next morning, as A Rou boarded the carriage again, he was somewhat lost in thought as he looked at Duan Xin and Zi Ruyi, who were radiant and whose spirit power had improved.
They must have had dual stimulation again last night...
Is that method really that effective?
Should I... give it a try?
Once this thought resurfaces, it grows wildly like weeds, becoming impossible to suppress.
If he can accept me as I am... are race, age, daughter... really still problems?
At this moment, A Rou suddenly felt enlightened, as if the world had become much wider. The only remaining concern was the attitudes of Duan Xin and Zi Ruyi.
But she really didn't know how to bring it up, and after struggling for several more days, seeing Yu Qing and the other two's cultivation levels steadily improve, A Rou finally made up her mind.
The opportunity arose when Yu Qing went to make Medicinal Cuisine alone. A Rou took a deep breath and found Duan Xin and Zi Ruyi chatting.
" Sister Rou, what do you need us for?" Duan Xin asked curiously.
A Rou's cheeks flushed slightly. She bit her lower lip, as if she had used up all her courage before speaking: "If...if Yu Qing...accepts other women, and... has dual cultivation with her...can you...accept it?"
Duan Xin and Zi Ruyi exchanged a knowing glance. It seemed that the powerful Titled Douluo had finally succumbed completely to her husband's charm.
Zi Ruyi's eyes were sincere and calm: "As long as she truly loves her husband, and her husband loves her too, we are willing to accept it."
A Rou's eyes lit up with surprise: "Really?!"
"Absolutely true." Duan Xin affirmed with a smile. At their current level, their love and tolerance for Yu Qing had long surpassed ordinary boundaries; as long as it was someone he truly loved, they would support him.
The last trace of worry vanished. A Rou's heart was filled with immense joy and anticipation.
...
That night, as Yu Qing, as usual, completed the Dual Cultivation with Duan Xin and Zi Ruyi, and the two women began compressing and purifying their spirit power, a familiar spiritual fluctuation gently touched Yu Qing's senses and conveyed a clear message:
" Yu Qing, come out for a moment... I have something I want to discuss with you."
Yu Qing raised an eyebrow and immediately got up to open the door. He saw A Rou pacing back and forth outside his door, his hands nervously twisting together, his whole body exuding an aura of anxiety and unease, yet also carrying a kind of resolute determination to make a desperate gamble.
" A Rou?" Yu Qing softened her voice. "What's wrong? What's the matter? Tell me."
"Yu, Yu Qing …" A Rou raised her head, her eyes flickering, as if she had made a huge decision. She suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Qing's wrist, her spirit power surging slightly—the next moment, the two of them instantly appeared in her room.
Teleportation!
A Rou took a deep breath, as if inhaling all her courage into her lungs. She raised her head, her pink eyes gazing intently at Yu Qing: " Yu Qing, you...you like me, don't you?"
"I like it." Yu Qing's answer was without any hesitation, firm and direct.
"Then…" A Rou's voice trembled slightly, "can you be my partner?"
Yu Qing remained silent for a moment. Just as the light in A Rou's eyes began to dim during this brief silence, he spoke, his voice steady and solemn: "I am willing, but A Rou, you must understand that I also deeply love Xiner and Ruyi. I will never abandon them. Are you... willing to share me with them?"
A Rou's eyes instantly lit up again, even more brightly than before! She nodded vigorously, her voice utterly certain: "As long as you like me and treat me sincerely... I'm willing to accept them! As long as I can be by your side..."
Yu Qing was moved. He stepped forward and gently embraced her. His deep and firm voice rang in her ear: " A Rou, from this day forward, you are my woman, Yu Qing's woman. For the rest of my life, I will protect you. No one will be able to harm you in the slightest—unless I die."
This solemn vow made A Rou's heart tremble, and she was enveloped by an immense sense of happiness and security. She hugged Yu Qing tightly, her voice choked with emotion: " A Qing... meeting you is the greatest luck of my life. "
Yu Qing gently stroked her soft, long hair and responded tenderly, " It is my blessing to have met A Rou."
A Rou tilted her head back, her eyes shimmering with unyielding affection. Mustering her last bit of courage, she spoke in a voice barely audible yet crystal clear: " A Qing... let's... have a Dual Cultivation?"
Looking at her shy yet brave appearance, Yu Qing felt even more affection for her, but shook her head: " A Rou, don't rush. Before that, we need to complete a small ceremony."
"A ritual?" A Rou's eyes were full of doubt.
Yu Qing smiled slightly, released her, and opened his palm. A scroll phantom made of pure golden light appeared in his palm, and on the scroll, black and white Yin and Yang fish swam slowly, exuding a mysterious aura.
"Drop a drop of your blood onto this scroll." Yu Qing gently stroked A Rou's pert nose. "Only after this ritual is completed can we truly begin the Dual Cultivation."
Without the slightest hesitation, A Rou used his spirit power to force a drop of crimson blood from his fingertip, which gently dripped onto the golden scroll.
The moment the blood merged into the scroll, a brilliant light shone forth!
