Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Leng Yue Ning's body stiffened instantly.

He clenched his fists secretly.

She never expected that Lan Mi would guess her thoughts so easily!

"Yes......"

Since she had been guessed correctly, Leng Yuening simply stopped pretending and said helplessly, "I have something I would like to ask for your help with."

"Huh? This is the first time my little Ningning has been so honest about asking me for a favor." Lan Mi exclaimed in surprise, "It seems this matter has really stumped my little Ningning?"

Leng Yue Ning: "......"

Lan Mi smiled slightly, then looked at Gao Shenxue and Xia Xiyao: "Well, you two have been meditating for three days, you must be tired. Go back and rest first. Oh, and don't forget what I just said."

Gao Shenxue and Xia Xiyao nodded slightly and left.

Leng Yue Ning was taken aback.

She hadn't expected Lan Mi to be so...thoughtful this time?

They actually managed to get her students away first.

Leng Yuening originally thought that Lan Mi would definitely take this opportunity to make a good laugh at her in front of her students!

Has the bad woman suddenly changed?

"How about it, Ningning? I've really given you face this time, haven't I?" Lan Mi poked her waist with her finger.

"..." Leng Yuening paused for a moment: "Um, thanks...!?? Hey! What are you doing?"

Lan Mi reached out and removed the veil from her face.

It revealed Leng Yuening's incredibly cute baby face beneath her thin silk veil, a face that was completely at odds with her cold and aloof demeanor.

"It's not like we haven't seen her before. My little Ningning looks cutest like this~ Why cover up such an adorable loli doll face with a veil?"

"Lan Mi! You...you give her back to me right now!" Leng Yuening blushed with embarrassment.

"No, no, no."

"..."

Who would have thought that two powerful figures at the pinnacle of human combat strength would end up bickering and fighting over a veil inside the house...

Five minutes later, both women had their clothes tattered.

Seeing that she couldn't get it, Leng Yuening gave up with a snort. While smoothing her slightly messy hair and tidying her clothes, she sat down at the table, pouting, "You, why are you still so childish?"

Lan Mi straightened her robes, twirling the purple veil in her hand, and asked with a smile, "So, what is it that you want to ask me?"

Leng Yuening remained silent for a while, then sighed softly: "Over the years, I have been in seclusion in the sect, trying various methods to break through the barriers of my level and advance to the Saint Realm... But more than a hundred years have passed, and I have made no progress at all."

Lan Mi thought for a moment and said, "Isn't this normal? Logically speaking, given the human body structure and genes, the limit of the level is usually the peak of the Heavenly Revelation Realm. If you want to break through to the next level, you have to rely on external forces."

“No, it’s different.” Leng Yuening shook her head: “For cultivators, although the cultivation time in the early stages is longer than that of ordinary extraordinary beings, the chances of breaking through in the later stages are still greater than those of ordinary extraordinary beings.”

"Actually, in my earlier years, I could gradually feel some physical accumulation by entering the sect's forbidden area for secluded cultivation..."

"But in recent years, I don't know what's going on."

Leng Yuening sighed again: "I feel that my cultivation has made no progress, and even... there is a faint tendency to regress."

Lan Mi raised an eyebrow slightly: "That serious?"

"Hmm." Leng Yuening bit her lip. "Although it's only a single-digit amount of spiritual energy, compared to my thousand years of cultivation, the amount of spiritual energy lost is almost negligible, but it's still lost... and if I hadn't tried my best to maintain it, I probably would have lost even more..."

Lan Mi: "I remember you cultivate the Great Dao of Forgetfulness, right?"

Leng Yuening: "Mm."

“This kind of cultivation method, which is extremely particular about one’s state of mind, if one’s cultivation level regresses…” Lan Mi looked at her: “It means your Dao heart is unstable.”

"I just don't know where my Dao heart is unstable..." Leng Yuening sighed again, looking very depressed.

“So,” Lan Mi looked at her with a smile, “you’re asking me for advice, right?”

Lan Mi deliberately emphasized the words "please advise".

Leng Yue Ning: "......"

"......Um!"

Leng Yuening was really going all out for her cultivation path.

Ignoring Lan Mi's smiling face, he forced a nod.

After all, we have to admit it.

This woman may be a bad one, but she's still quite formidable...

As an old friend, Leng Yuening was one of the few people who knew some of Lan Mi's secrets.

Although this wicked woman is at the same level as her, both being at the peak of the ninth stage of the Heavenly Revelation Realm.

But if she doesn't suppress her cultivation level...

“I wouldn’t mind taking on an eighth personal student,” Lan Mi said with a smile. “Why don’t you call me ‘teacher’ and let me hear it?”

Leng Yue Ning huffed, "You!..."

"Hehe, never mind, I won't tease you anymore." Lan Mi shrugged. "But your problem with your Dao heart is not something I can help you solve."

“What should we do then…” Upon hearing Lan Mi’s words, Leng Yuening’s expression immediately darkened, and she became extremely dejected.

“But I know there is another person who can,” Lan Mi added.

Leng Yuening was taken aback: "Who?"

Lan Mi opened her mouth, about to speak.

"Boom! B ...

Just then, a clap of thunder and lightning erupted outside the window, and the wind and clouds surged!

A strange black cloud completely obscured the sky above the War Academy.

Leng Yuening's expression changed instantly, and her aura immediately became sharp: "Who?!"
