Before sleeping, Yun Che decided to check the skills log once more to see if any useful skill was added or not.
A new holographic screen popped up in front of him, containing a list of skills going vertically downwards.
Yun Che ignored the previous skills and looked for those that had "NEW" at their end, indicating that these entries were new since the last time he checked.
'Oh! There are some good skills.' Yun Che thought.
["Curse Resistance" skill level maxed!]
["Curse Dispelling" skill level maxed!]
["Herculean Strength" skill level maxed!]
["Lust Control" skill level maxed!]
["Body Control" skill level maxed!]
'Done! With this, I'm at least a little stronger now. I also got these resistances which will protect me from curses, that alone is worth a lot!'
Yun Che sighed, a burst of strength filling himself. He believed that he should be able to easily pick up the Overlord Colossal Sword now! With Herculean Strength at max, he should easily be able to handle it as if swinging a stick!
Done with checking the system and upgrading his new skills, Yun Che yawned and decided to take his long awaited nap.

The next morning announced its arrival with the chirping of birds and a knock at his door.
The sound of knocking pulled Yun Che out from the dreamland. Groggily standing up, he stretched his body. The sound of knocking rang once more.
"Who?" Yun Che asked, too lazy to leave his bed and open the door.
"... It's me, Brother Yun." After a small pause, a soft melodic voice came from the other side of the door.
Yun Che raised a brow. Leaving his bed, he walked towards the door and opened it, revealing a beautiful girl standing on the other side. Her black eyes looked at him with shyness which wasn't hidden from him, and the small gentle smile that would unconditionally ask for your attention.
Yun Che couldn't help but smile softly seeing her.
"Sister Yue, what brings you here? Don't tell me. Were you missing me?"
A small blush appeared over Cang Yue's cheeks making her look unbearably cute.
"N-no…"
"Hm?" Yun Che raised a brow and a saddened expression appeared over his face. "So you didn't miss me? Was I the only one then?"
"N-no, not that… I… I also missed Brother Yun…"
Yun Che's smirked widened seeing the bashful look over her face. He could never get tired of looking at her bashful expression. It was just priceless.
"So you did come to meet me since you missed me. How bold, Sister Yue."
Cang Yue felt her heart would jump out of her bountiful chest at any moment at this rate. She was just not used to such conversation. She raised her hand and pushed a piece of yellow colored jade and a stack of talisman paper towards Yun Che.
"First, congratulations for passing the Entrance Exam." Controlling her emotions, Cang Yue smiled beautifully seeing Yun Che holding the jade and the stack of talisman in his hands. "I didn't know so much would happen in a single day of your arrival in Blue Wind Profound Palace. Not only did you defeat Feng Yue but also challenged Murong Yi… I don't doubt your ability to be able to defeat him."
"Blind trust can lead to destruction, you know." Yun Che replied, still staring at the talisman curiously.
Cang Yue shook her head and the smile returned to her thin lips.
"I'm okay blindly trusting in Brother Yun!" She looked at the jade and talisman before explaining. "The reason why I'm here is to give you these; this is your Sound Transmission Jade. The Sound Transmission Imprint is already set. Instructor Qin Wuyou's Sound Transmission Imprint as well as mine are also added in. And these, are thirty sheets of Hundred Mile Sound Transmission Talismans and five sheets of Thousand Mile Sound Talismans; if any urgent matter arises in the future and you need to seek me and Instructor Qin, you just need to transmit sound to us using the Sound Transmission Talisman."
Yun Che nodded at her explanation. He suddenly had an idea of learning Talisman Art. It seemed useful enough and he thought he could imprint many different elements on them, knowing he could control all elements!
While Yun Che was busy checking the talisman, Cang Yue looked at his behind, inside the room and examined it before saying with a light smile.
"Even though I've been in the Blue Wind Profound Palace for a while as well, it's still the first time I've ever entered the living quarters of the Inner Palace disciples. It really is unexpectedly extravagant; better than the Middle Palace disciple's living area for who knows how many times. Just this big bed, it wouldn't even be a problem for two or three people to sleep on it."
Yun Che's action of checking the talisman halted. He looked up at Cang Yue, who had blush on her face, it seems that she also understood how what she said could be taken the wrong way, and a smirk formed over his face.
"You are absolutely right, Sister Yue. Such a big bed, I felt so lonely while sleeping on it. It was as if I was missing something really important beside me throughout the night. Something that I have come to absolutely liking these past ten days. I wonder if Sister Yue also felt the same way? Sister Yue, did you sleep comfortably last night?"
Cang Yue could swear she could hear her own heartbeat.
Her blessed chest rose up and down as her breathing increased.
Her cheeks had taken a deep hue of red before she finally uttered a reply.
"O-of course not… I-I… slept comfortably at home… I-I'll be leaving first!"
Without waiting for his reply, she turned around and ran away, leaving behind the smirking Yun Che. He absolutely loved seeing her flustered!
'Sadly, my dear wife is not here. I'm sure teasing her would have been as much fun as teasing Cang Yue. Sigh… Maybe I should give Frozen Asgard a visit? Forget it. I'll probably be frozen into an ice popsicle if I did that… Or they will try at least…'
