I Just Want to Live a Good Life, But I Surpassed the Protagonist – 24 A BUG Caused by Cheating

“After the protagonist Long Tian opened his seven-colored foundation, he was already considered a peerless genius. I’m already at the twentieth level of Qi Refining, and now I have an eight-colored foundation. What the hell is this? A BUG caused by cheating?” Ye Yong looked at the black spiritual vein and felt a little scared.

The more spiritual veins one had, the better. Within the same realm, the more spiritual veins one had, the more spiritual power one could mobilize. In immortal cultivation battles, besides martial arts and skills, the most important thing was spiritual power.

Eight spiritual veins meant that at the first level of Foundation Establishment, he could use more than twice as much spiritual power as cultivators of the same level or even higher.

“Forget it, a BUG is a BUG. Anyway, I have a shielding spell. I won’t be easily seen through by a strong person’s divine sense. I need some privacy and dignity.” Ye Yong stopped thinking and quickly consolidated his foundation .

The Divine Body was the Divine Body, so there was no need to worry about the foundation being unstable. Ye Yong felt that there was nothing to consolidate, so he stopped buying Gathering Qi Pills and started buying Gathering Spirit Pills to increase his cultivation.

Another 20 days passed.

For mortals, 20 days was quite a long time, but for immortal cultivators, it could basically be considered the blink of an eye.

Ye Yong was like this. He didn’t sleep every day. He took pills, absorbed spiritual energy, took pills, guided spiritual energy, took pills, and compressed spiritual energy. Time passed very quickly.

During these 20 days, Ye Yong didn’t need to eat. He exchanged for a bunch of Supreme Gathering Spirit Pills and took pills every day until he was full. In the end, he would gag as soon as he smelled the fragrance of Gathering Spirit Pills.

However, cultivation still had to continue, but he had to rest for the time being.

Ye Yong stopped cultivating and came out of seclusion.

Now, he was a cultivator at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment.

There were still more than ten days before the day when the Tianluo Sect would recruit disciples. Cultivators at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment were already considered first-class disciples, but Ye Yong felt that it wasn’t enough. Qin Shimeng would definitely break through to the Crystallization stage by then and shock the entire Eastern Continent. He also had to show off and act cool, no, keep up with her pace.

He would rest for a day and continue cultivating tomorrow.

After Ye Yong came out of seclusion, Wu Xue’s first action was to inform Qin Shimeng.

Because during the 20 or so days that Ye Yong was in seclusion, Qin Shimeng had come to look for Ye Yong several times.

Every time she came, her cultivation level would increase significantly. Since the last time, which was two days ago, she had already reached the tenth level of Foundation Establishment. This level had undoubtedly shocked everyone, especially the Qin family. Even the servants looked arrogant when they went out.

Qin Shimeng was not without the thought of hiding her cultivation level, but unfortunately, the elders of her family were too fond of showing off. Every time she made a breakthrough, they wished the whole world knew about it.

Qin Shimeng’s progress was so fast that it was not without suspicion. There were even some malicious thoughts, such as Ye Yong didn’t actually cripple his cultivation but was instead absorbed by Qin Shimeng using evil methods, which was why her cultivation had increased so much.

However, this kind of statement was self-defeating. If Qin Shimeng had really done that, the Ye family would have long since destroyed the Qin family.

Anyway, everyone was very puzzled about how Qin Shimeng managed to do it, but Qin Shimeng had already firmly memorized the mental cultivation method, and the note that Ye Yong had written was also kept very well by her. There were no traces left at all , nor had she taken any special elixirs, so although others suspected her, they had no way to prove it. They could only assume that Qin Shimeng’s talent had awakened, and her progress was rapid.

“You ah.” When Ye Yong learned that Wu Xue had already notified Qin Shimeng, and Qin Shimeng was on her way to the Ye family, he was a little surprised. Because the general direction of the plot had still not changed, Qin Shimeng’s relationship with Wu Xue had increased.

The difference was that in the original story, because ‘Ye Yong’ had been pestering Qin Shimeng, Qin Shimeng had come into contact with Wu Xue. But here, Qin Shimeng had come to find Ye Yong, but he was in closed-door cultivation , so Qin Shimeng’s relationship with Wu Xue had actually improved.

“Young master, you won’t blame me for acting on my own, will you?” Wu Xue blinked her eyes, her appearance was very pitiful.

“How could I blame you?” Ye Yong actually felt that Wu Xue had done the right thing, because he planned to continue contacting Qin Shimeng, increase her favorability, and obtain more reversal points.

During these days of cultivation, Ye Yong had spent more than 4,000 reversal points, all of which were used to buy super spirit gathering pills and spirit gathering pills. The medicinal effects would disappear as soon as he took them, so he used them up very quickly.

Ye Yong was currently cultivating a divine body, so he needed far more resources than a normal physique, and that eighth spiritual vein required significantly more spiritual energy than the previous seven combined. He had bought more than 3,000 reversal points worth of spirit gathering pills, largely because the eighth spiritual vein needed to absorb so much spiritual energy.

As for not buying the system’s spirit gathering pills and refining his own pills instead? Right now, he was only in the early stages, and improving his cultivation was the most important thing. He might as well cultivate instead of spending time refining pills.

“But you didn’t get my consent before you called her over. You need to be punished.” Ye Yong reached out and pinched Wu Xue’s face, pulling it constantly.

Although he didn’t use much strength, and it didn’t really hurt, two red marks were still left on Wu Xue’s fair face. She looked as if she had applied blush, making her look even cuter. The key was that Wu Xue didn’t resist at all. She looked as if she was letting him toy with her. Ye Yong really wanted to kiss her, but if he did, he was worried that it would lower Wu Xue’s favorability.

Wu Xue’s favorability had already been increasing very slowly. Although it was also because he had been in closed-door cultivation and had interacted less with Wu Xue, the system had said that the higher the favorability, the harder it was to increase it.

Wu Xue’s current favorability was 40, and her attitude was one of admiration.

Ye Yong had asked the system before, and it had said that if favorability decreased, the reversal points that had already been increased would not be deducted, and relatively, they would not be increased either. In other words, he couldn’t repeatedly use reversal points. But if he acted impulsively and kissed her, causing her favorability to drop into the negatives, then all of Ye Yong’s efforts these past few days would have been in vain, and it would be even harder to increase it again. So it was better not to act impulsively, to stay rational, and not to make a move until he was absolutely sure. No, not a move, a kiss.

“Little Xue, I’ve already recovered to the Foundation Establishment cultivation level. Should we find a time these few days to start body tempering for you?” Ye Yong didn’t forget to give Wu Xue the body tempering task. He was determined to hold onto the thigh of this future Valkyrie.

“Can I really do it?” Wu Xue didn’t have much confidence in herself, but because her favorability had increased, she trusted Ye Yong more than when they had first met.

“Definitely no problem. You have to believe in yourself.” Ye Yong patted Wu Xue’s little head. “If you can’t do it, then no one can.”

“If I fail, will young master be disappointed in me?” However, confidence is not something that can be established in a short period of time.

But Ye Yong understood Wu Xue. She was the type of person who, once she made up her mind, would persevere. “Don’t worry. If you fail this time, we’ll just continue next time. As long as you don ‘t give up, I won’t give up.”

“Then… I’ll try my best not to let young master down.” Wu Xue said softly, her two little hands tightly clenched, constantly rubbing together. Her nervousness was evident.

Seeing this, Ye Yong took the initiative to ask if anything had happened these past few days to divert Wu Xue’s attention and ease her tension.
