Succeeded in subduing her?
Lin Qi'an felt that he didn't exert much effort at all.
She was doing all the work herself, but since the system indicated completion, it meant she had submitted and could be considered one of his own.
Therefore, he decided to protect the Tianchi Holy Land.
"You just rest here."
"What about your highness…" Su Xueni laid on the soft bed, pulling the quilt to cover half of her blushing face, exposing only her shy and charming eyes.
"I have other matters to attend to."
Su Xueni had offered herself, and naturally, he would accept, but there was no need to rush; there was plenty of time in the future.
The first dual cultivation with the Dragon Yang Dao Body would greatly benefit both parties, especially with an ice-type physique.
Yin and Yang combine to achieve the Dao!
Although Su Xueni's physique was suitable, its quality was lacking. He would later enhance her physique to make it a top-tier ice attribute, then dual cultivation would yield the greatest benefits.
"You did well today. From now on, you will be my personal maid."
"I will protect the Tianchi Holy Land."
Hearing this, Su Xueni was overjoyed!
Although the Crown Prince's demands were domineering, he did not force her at all.
Instead, he was considerate, giving her a heaven-level technique and willing to oppose the Tai'an royal family for her sake.
The slight humiliation of washing feet earlier was nothing compared to the current joy!
"Thank you for your great kindness, Your Highness!" Su Xueni made up her mind to repay the Crown Prince's kindness in the future.
At this moment, Lin Qi'an needed to enhance his strength.
He went to a secluded secret chamber and activated the jade slip of "Ten Thousand Swords To Court".
[Ding! Do you want to spend 1000 villain points to cultivate?]
"Yes!"
Countless densely packed golden characters shot from the jade slip into Lin Qi'an's forehead. After a while, he had comprehended the first level of Ten Thousand Swords To Court.
Subsequent levels could be cultivated without any obstacles by continuing to spend villain points. This divine ability was enough to deal with the Tiangang Holy Land people outside!
He didn't even need You Yi to take action. Tomorrow, he would solve the troubles outside.

"Pfft!" Ling Tian spat out a mouthful of vital blood. His eyes were filled with joy.
"The fifth level of the Nine Yang Profound Art is achieved!"
Now, he was a fourth-layer, Heaven Ascendant Realm expert.
Seeing this, the sword spirit Ling Yu sighed: "Forcing cultivation by exhausting your vital blood will permanently damage your talent."
"It doesn't matter. As long as I am strong enough, I can stand up for the Tianchi Holy Land so that I can protect my Xueni! Now I will go out and drive away those invaders."
"Sigh, the impetuousness of youth… For a woman, is it worth it?"
'Have you forgotten our promise as master and disciple? I help you cultivate, and you help me restore my body in the future. Your current actions are self-destructive!'
However, the hot-blooded Ling Tian ignored Ling Yu's advice.
Having survived so many life-and-death trials, he believed he was blessed by the Dao, always turning misfortune into fortune, and he would surely pave a bright path!
***
Outside the Tianchi Holy Land.
"Tomorrow, this formation will be broken. Let's see how long they can hide like turtles!"
"Hah, daring to openly defy the prince's order, these people are courting death."
"A mere saintess, acting high and mighty in front of the Tianlang Immortal Dynasty, really thinks she's an immortal?"
"Hahaha!" While everyone was mocking and joking, a fiery red figure soared into the sky. A figure in green, holding a crimson sword, with a fierce look in his eyes, exuding an imposing aura.
"Who?!"
"Tianchi Holy Land, Ling Tian!"
Indeed, Ling Tian had come out through the holy land's escape passage. He aimed to repel the invaders single-handedly, saving the holy land and thus winning Xueni's heart.
"Dare someone from the Tianchi Holy Land come out? Courting death!"
The Shenlong Army and the Tiangang Holy Land cultivators surrounded him.
In an instant, the night sky was filled with surging spiritual energy, meteoric fire rain, and overwhelming spells.
"Break!"
Ling Tian's forehead shone with golden light, and with a sweep of his sword, crimson flames roared like a phoenix!
The entire night sky was ignited by divine fire. The power of one sword strike resulted in many deaths and injuries.
Though alone, he came prepared, intending to challenge only the young generation's experts.
If the opponent was unreasonable, he would detonate the divine fire within the Nine Yang Divine Sword, causing severe damage to them.
If things followed the typical protagonist's plot, he would succeed today, repel the enemies, and elope with the female lead.
However, the situation was now very different.
***
Inside the holy land.
Su Xueni was reporting the good news to her father.
"Father, I have good news! The Crown Prince has agreed to protect our Tianchi Holy Land."
Hearing this, Su Yun was overjoyed, "Is this true?!
"Of course it is true. The Crown Prince also gave me a heaven-level technique to suppress my cold ailment."
"Excellent, excellent!" He never expected that his daughter could gain the Crown Prince's favor, truly a blessing for the holy land.
With the Crown Prince backing them, even if the Tai'an royal family pressed hard, they had confidence.
Beiyang never feared anyone!
But at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed in hurriedly.
"Holy Master, something terrible has happened! Ling Tian killed members of the Shenlong Army and is challenging them outside!"
"What?!" Su Yun's face changed drastically as if struck by lightning.
