"Yun'er?"
"No! I've already said you can't address this Sect Master that way!!"
Yun Yun blushed, her beautiful eyes filled with anger as she tried to stop Yun Tianming with a cold gaze.
However, what Yun Yun didn't know was that, although she was overflowing with embarrassment, she insisted on maintaining a cold and aloof demeanor. The contrast between her shame and the icy attitude created an irresistible charm, causing her already stunning appearance to instantly break through the heavens!
"Ah~"
Yun Tianming was momentarily stunned, unable to come to his senses for a long time.
"Tianming? You...!"
Yun Yun raised her eyebrows and glared, but not only couldn't she stop Yun Tianming, his gaze became even more unabashed!
This made her so angry that she stomped her foot and shouted in embarrassment, "Yun Tianming! Have you seen enough?"
Yun Tianming's gaze was intense, and he subconsciously replied, "No, Yun'er, a lifetime is not enough to see."
"!!!"
Once the lofty Misty Cloud Sect Sect Master, Yun Yun had never heard such explicit words. She was immediately thrown into chaos. If someone else dared to be so disrespectful, she would have unleashed her sword and sent an [Extreme Wind: Killer Meteorite] their way!
However,
Yun Yun looked at the heavy Qi Method scroll in her hand. This was the legendary Earth Rank Low-Level Qi Method, something even a Dou Ancestor powerhouse couldn't resist coveting.
Yun Tianming bestowed upon her such an invaluable treasure, and if she drew her sword against him, it would be utterly ungrateful! Thinking of this, a conflicted expression filled Yun Yun's charming face.
On one hand, this Earth Rank Qi Method was truly tempting, and on the other hand, Yun Tianming's request wasn't unreasonable. In essence, it was just a matter of changing the way she addressed him.
However, Yun Yun couldn't get past the psychological barrier. In her subconscious, the only people who could address her as "Yun'er" were either elders or her future husband.
That's why when Yun Tianming called her "Yun'er," Yun Yun's reaction was so intense. Mentally, she directly associated him with the image of a future husband. Ugh!
A fifteen-year-old husband; just thinking about it made Yun Yun's scalp tingle!
"Tianming, could you change the way you address me?"
"Just consider it a plea from this Sect Master!"
Yun Yun clenched her teeth, a hint of humiliation in her expression as she earnestly pleaded.
Click~
Yun Tianming silently recorded Yun Yun's shy and slightly humiliated expression in his mind.
"Well, I'll step back."
"Call you Sister Yun'er, then."
"Yun'er" was an affectionate nickname. By adding the term "sister," it could slightly reduce the intimacy while maintaining a hint of distance between them.
Yun Tianming didn't expect to make significant progress from the start, directly establishing a romantic relationship with Yun Yun. Now, strategically retreating to a point where they were more than friends but not quite lovers was already a good progress in his tactics.
"Sister Yun'er?"
Yun Yun whispered this title to herself, her cheeks slightly flushed. It still felt quite embarrassing!
However, compared to the previous "Yun'er," "Sister Yun'er" sounded less explicit.
"Sister Yun'er?"
Yun Tianming tentatively called out.
After a moment of silence, Yun Yun responded softly, "Mm~"
Considering it an approval of the address, she immediately emphasized, "Tianming, you're not allowed to call me that in front of others!"
"Sister Yun'er, are you feeling shy?"
Yun Tianming revealed a triumphant smile as his plan succeeded.
When you ask people to open a window on the wall, everyone will object. But if you suggest tearing off the roof, everyone will agree to your request for a window.
"Huh? Little brother, have you lost your manners lately, daring to flirt with your sister multiple times?"
Yun Yun narrowed her eyes, adopting the demeanor of an elder sister lecturing her younger brother, and lifted Yun Tianming's ear.
"Ouch~"
"Painful! Sister Yun'er, please be gentle."
Yun Tianming found himself on the receiving end, his ear twisted, causing him to wince and grimace in pain.
"Hmm~ Do you realize your mistake now?"
Yun Yun's lips curled slightly, and the frustration on her face disappeared imperceptibly. With this young man before her, the imposing demeanor of the Sect Master had been greatly compromised. Now, leveraging the title of "Sister Yun'er," she could rightfully bully her younger brother, and the dynamics of offense and defense had completely reversed!
"I'm sorry, Sister Yun'er! I was wrong."
Facing the unyielding grip of a Dou Emperor powerhouse, Yun Tianming felt like his ears were about to be twisted off. So, with a sincere tone, he pleaded, "I won't dare next time!"
"???"
Yun Yun increased the pressure.
"Ah—!"
Over the Misty Cloud Sect's skies, there echoed both painful and joyous cries.
————
The next day.
With the junior sister absent, only Yun Tianming and Yun Yun were present at the Sect Master's Residence.
A rare opportunity for a private encounter, Yun Tianming naturally wouldn't miss the chance to enhance their relationship. Early in the morning, he went to disturb Yun Yun.
Yun Yun gladly accepted and took the initiative to offer help in Yun Tianming's training.
Then, the following scene unfolded.
"Wind Rending Dance!"
In front of Yun Yun, a fierce wind erupted, numerous massive deep-blue wind blades flashed into existence out of nowhere. They intertwined, forming a cylindrical shape filled with blades, spiraling rapidly and violently shooting out!
"Sister Yun'er, are you trying to kill me?"
Yun Tianming was greatly alarmed. This move from Yun Yun was a Black Rank High-level Dou Technique, appearing as if she intended to tear him apart with a thousand blades!
Of course, this was only an imposing display. With his Soul Perception, Yun Tianming sensed that Yun Yun controlled the intensity of her Dou Qi quite well, using an attack equivalent to a Dou Grandmaster's level.
Even so, for him, a 1-Star Dou Master, withstanding this onslaught was not an easy task.
"Swoosh!"
At the first instant, he summoned Dou Qi Cloak to protect himself. Countless wind blades densely surrounded him, crazily cutting through the air. Thanks to the formidable Nourishing Divine Wood Qi Method, Yun Tianming's Dou Qi quality was excellent. Even when facing the 3-Star Dou Grandmaster Jia Lie Bi head-on that day, he didn't fall too far behind.
However, this time, facing Yun Yun's attack at Dou Grandmaster strength, his Dou Qi Cloak was torn to shreds as if it were made of paper!
"Pu-pu-pu~"
Yun Tianming's body was marked with trails of blood from the wind blades. Yet, Yun Yun's precision in controlling the Dou Technique was impeccable, causing only superficial injuries that didn't harm him fundamentally.
"The intensity of your Dou Qi is good, but the cohesion of your Dou Qi Cloak still lacks a bit of refinement."
Yun Yun gave a fair assessment.
"Sister Yun'er is right; let's go again!"
With a beauty by his side and the chance to enhance his own strength, these days were simply twice as joyful!
Yun Tianming's face was filled with a pleased expression. He casually pulled off the tattered moon-white robe, revealing a robust set of eight abdominal muscles underneath.
This guy... turns out he has a pretty good physique.
Her gaze unintentionally swept over the bare upper body, and Yun Yun subconsciously averted her eyes.
