Chapter 18: The First Conquest

The tip of his cock pressed against her entrance, a hot, demanding intruder knocking at the gates of a fortress that had been abandoned for too long. Mrs. Lin’s breath hitched, her eyes rolling back as she felt the sheer width of him stretching her.

"Please..." she whimpered, her hands scrabbling for purchase on his shoulders. "Kai... you’re too big..."

"Relax," Kai commanded, his voice a low, guttural growl. "Take it. Take all of it."

He didn't wait for her to adjust. He gripped her hips, his fingers digging into the soft flesh of her waist to anchor her. With one fluid, ruthless motion, he drove his hips forward.

Squelch.

The sound was wet and obscene.

He buried himself to the hilt. He slid through her tight, heated channel, pushing past the resistance of her unused muscles, stretching her walls until he hit the deepest point of her womb.

"AHHH!" Mrs. Lin screamed, her back arching off the table. Her toes curled, knocking over a bowl of rice that clattered to the floor, forgotten.

She was filled. Completely, utterly filled. The sensation was overwhelming. She felt like she was being split open, impaled by a rod of hot iron. But beneath the sharp sting of the stretch was a wave of pleasure so intense it was blinding.

Kai held himself deep inside her for a moment, letting her adjust to his invasion. He could feel her pussy clamping down on him, pulsing around his shaft like a living thing, milking him with terrified delight.

"Look at you," Kai whispered, leaning down to brush his lips against her sweat-slicked forehead. "Filled up on your own dining table."

He began to move.

He pulled back slowly, dragging the ridge of his cock along her sensitive internal walls, before slamming back in.

Thud.

His pelvis crashed against her soft buttocks, the sound echoing in the dim room.

Thud. Thud.

He set a rhythm—slow, heavy, and punishingly deep. With every thrust, he watched Mrs. Lin unravel. Her head thrashed from side to side, her hair fanning out among the spilled food. Her moans turned into a continuous, broken keen.

"Oh god... Kai... right there... oh, it’s so deep..."

Kai’s hands moved up. He couldn't ignore them. Her breasts were bouncing with the force of his thrusts, swaying mesmerizingly in the candlelight.

He reached out and grabbed them.

He squeezed hard. His fingers sank into the pale, yielding dough of her tits, molding them. He pushed them together, watching the way the cleavage deepened. He plucked at her nipples, twisting them sharply as he slammed his hips forward.

"Do you like that, Auntie?" Kai grunted, increasing his pace. "Do you like me playing with your tits while I fuck your pussy?"

"Yes! Yes!" she cried out, abandoning all shame. "Harder! Please, squeeze them harder!"

The friction was incredible. The Dragon's Vitality buff made his stamina limitless. He felt like a machine, a piston of flesh designed solely to bring this woman to ruin. The smell of the room—the savory pork, the jasmine perfume, and the sharp, musky scent of sex—filled his lungs, intoxicating him.

[Ding!]

The blue screen flickered into existence next to Mrs. Lin’s flushed, ecstatic face.

[Quest Update: The Merchant’s Wife] [Hidden Objective Detected: The Collector.] [Task: Capture the moment of conquest. Photograph the target in a state of absolute submission.] [Reward: +30 XP]

Kai smirked. Even in the throes of passion, the System was a voyeur.

He didn't stop thrusting. If anything, he drove into her harder, making her gasp and choke on her own breath.

"System," Kai thought, his mind sharp despite the lust. "Gallery Mode. Capture."

He leaned back slightly, getting the perfect angle.

Mrs. Lin was a mess of pure, carnal beauty. Her legs were wrapped tightly around his waist, her heels digging into his back. Her head was thrown back, her mouth open in a silent scream of pleasure. Her breasts were red from his grip, the nipples standing tall and wet with sweat. And down below, where their bodies merged, her juices were coating his cock, turning into a white froth from the friction.

[Target Locked.] [Snap.]

[Image Captured: The Dining Table Feast.] [Quality: Divine (Erotic/Submission).] [Reward: +30 XP]

The notification vanished, but the lust it spiked in Kai remained.

He wanted to break her. He wanted to make sure she never forgot whose cock she belonged to.

"Whose wife are you?" Kai demanded, slapping her breast with the flat of his hand. The impact sent a ripple through the soft flesh.

"Yours!" Mrs. Lin sobbed, her eyes fluttering open, hazy and unfocused. "I'm yours, Kai! I'm yours!"

"That's right. You're my bitch now."

Kai let go of all restraint. He pounded into her, his hips becoming a blur. The table creaked and groaned under their combined weight, sliding inches across the floor with every impact.

Slap! Slap! Slap!

The sound of skin on skin was wet and violent. Mrs. Lin was sobbing now, her body convulsing. Her inner walls were spasmsing, clamping down on his cock with a grip that threatened to rip the soul out of him.

"I'm... I'm coming! Kai! I'm gonna break!" she screamed.

She clamped her thighs around his head. Her back arched so high only her shoulders and ass were touching the table.

"Cum for me!" Kai roared.

He drove one final, brutal thrust deep into her womb and ground his pelvis against her clit.

Mrs. Lin shattered.

A high-pitched scream tore from her throat. Her body seized up, every muscle locking tight. Her pussy convulsed violently, milking him, squeezing him in a rhythmic, crushing grip. She squirted, her fluids mixing with his precum, soaking the table beneath them.

The sensation of her climax triggering around his dick was too much. The pressure was immense.

[Critical Yang Buildup!] [Release Imminent!]

Kai groaned, his head falling forward. He felt the explosion build at the base of his spine.

"Take it!"

He erupted.

Hot, thick jets of cum shot out of him, flooding her deep inside. He pumped into her, over and over, emptying his balls completely. It felt endless. The Dragon's Vitality ensured that even his load was potent and heavy.

He held her there, panting, his forehead resting against her chest, feeling the frantic hammer of her heart against his face.

They stayed like that for a long time, the only sound in the room the harsh, ragged breathing of two people who had just survived a natural disaster.

Slowly, the fog of lust began to lift, replaced by the cool clarity of the System.

Kai pulled back. He gripped her hips and slowly withdrew.

Schlop.

His cock slid out, still semi-hard, glistening wetly. As it left her, a mix of his white seed and her clear juices leaked out of her stretched, gaping hole, dripping down her thigh and onto the wood of the table.

Mrs. Lin lay there, limp and broken, her eyes rolled back slightly, a foolish, satisfied smile plastered on her face. She looked thoroughly used. Thoroughly conquered.

[Ding!]

A cascade of notifications filled Kai's vision, bathing the aftermath in a neon blue glow.

[Quest Completed: The Merchant’s Wife] [Objective Met: "Dine" with Lin Mei.] [Hidden Objective Met: Conquer the Hostess.] [Bonus Reward: Gallery Collection (+30 XP).]

[Achievement Unlocked: First Blood.] [Description: You have conquered your first woman for the Harem. The path of the Dual Cultivator has truly begun.] [Reward: New Title - "The Neighbor's Nightmare".] [Effect: Increases attraction with Married Women by +10%.]

Kai stood up, wiping the sweat from his brow. He looked down at the notifications, then at the woman sprawled amidst the ruined dinner.

He felt power coursing through him. Not just the physical strength of the level up, but the psychological power of ownership.

"Five stat points," Kai muttered, his voice raspy.

He looked at his status screen. He had maxed out Charisma early to get here. Now, he needed to balance it. The Academy tournament was coming. He needed to be able to back up his arrogance with violence.

"System," Kai whispered, pulling his trousers up but leaving them unbuttoned. "Save the points. I'll allocate them when I get home."

He reached out and brushed a stray lock of hair from Mrs. Lin's face. She leaned into his touch instinctively, even in her daze.

"Rest now, Auntie," Kai said softly. "The food... was delicious."

He turned and walked toward the door. He didn't clean up. He left the mess, the smell, and the woman exactly as they were—marked by him.

As he stepped out into the cool night air, the moon hung high above Azure Wind City. Kai looked up at it, a dark smile spreading across his face.

One down.

Chapter 19: The Stat Sheet and the Harem Tree

The wooden door clicked shut, locking out the night. Kai leaned against it for a moment, letting the silence of his own home wash over him. The air here was stale compared to the jasmine-scented heat of Mrs. Lin’s dining room, but it felt safer. It was the den where the wolf counted his spoils.

He moved to his bed and sat down, the wooden frame creaking under his weight. He didn't feel tired. The [Dragon’s Vitality] was fading, leaving behind a pleasant, buzzing hum in his muscles.

"System," Kai commanded. "Show me the harvest."

[Ding!]

The interface bloomed in the darkness.

[Status Window]

Name: Kai

Level: 3 (0/200 XP)

Title: The Neighbor's Nightmare

Available Stat Points: 5

Kai ignored the stats for a second and tabbed over to a new icon that had just stopped blinking. It was a heart icon wrapped in chains.

[Harem List]

He clicked it. The list expanded. Currently, it held only one name, glowing in a soft, conquest-gold hue.

1. Lin Mei (The Merchant's Wife)

Status: Conquered / Submissive.

Affection: 95/100 (Obsessed).

Current Role: Fulfillable Hole.

Kai tapped on her name. A sub-menu unfolded, revealing a complex tree diagram labeled [Intercourse Mastery].

Kai’s eyebrows shot up. "It’s a skill tree? For sex?"

He scrolled through it. It wasn't just a list; it was a progression map.

[Vanilla Pounding] - (Mastered - Lvl 1)

[Oral Service] - (Unlocked - Lvl 1)

[Anal Destruction] - (Locked - Requires Affection 100)

[Public Exposure] - (Locked - Requires 'Shameless' Trait)

The Deep Clean: Cum inside her 10 times. (Progress: 1/10). [Reward: +50 XP]

The Silent Scream: Make her orgasm without making a sound while her husband is home. [Reward: +100 XP + Stealth Skill].

"Holy shit," Kai whispered, a grin splitting his face. "I can farm her. I can literally farm XP just by trying different positions and scenarios."

The potential was endless. Every woman wasn't just a conquest; she was a unique dungeon of pleasure and points.

He swiped back to the [Gallery].

Four images floated there. Three of Ye Rou—the soap on her tit, the ass spread, the finger in her pussy. And now, the new one: Lin Mei, eyes rolled back, covered in his fluids on the dining table.

"A good start," Kai nodded. "But I need more."

He closed the Gallery and went back to the main status screen. The 5 Free Stat Points were pulsing, waiting to be assigned.

He thought about his stats.

Charisma: 8 (High enough for now to handle mortals).

Agility: 5 (Decent).

Strength: 4 (Weak).

He remembered the Academy. He remembered Gu Ling’s fire whip. He remembered the looming threat of Ye Feng, the Rank 1 cultivator who was already at the 5th Stage of the Mortal Realm. Charisma had gotten him into Mrs. Lin’s bed, but Charisma wouldn't stop a sword from taking his head off in the arena.

"I need power," Kai decided. "Raw, bone-breaking power."

[Allocating Points...] [Strength +5]

[Processing...]

A shockwave of pain and heat exploded in his muscles. Kai gritted his teeth, gripping the edge of the mattress as his muscle fibers tore and knitted back together in seconds. His shoulders broadened slightly. His grip strength doubled. The veins in his forearms popped, thick and corded.

[Updated Stats]

Strength: 9 (Peak Mortal - Equivalent to a trained soldier).

Agility: 5

Constitution: 5

Intelligence: 6

Charisma: 8

Kai flexed his hand. The air popped in his palm. He felt like he could punch through a brick wall.

"Better," he exhaled, the pain fading into a surge of dopamine. "Now I have the face to charm them and the hands to break them."

He lay back on the pillow, staring at the soot-stained ceiling. The day had been long. He had woken up a nobody, spanked a noble girl, challenged a queen, and conquered a neighbor.

"Tomorrow," Kai whispered, his eyes closing as exhaustion finally took him. "Tomorrow, the Academy learns to fear me."

Chapter 20: The Sweat of a Queen

Morning arrived with the force of a hammer strike, but for Kai, it felt like a blessing.

He sat up, the wooden bed frame groaning under the sudden shift of his weight. His body felt different. Denser. The [Strength: 9] upgrade wasn't just a number; it was a physical reconfiguration. His muscles felt like coiled steel cables wrapped around heavy bones.

And, inevitably, his morning erection was a monolith. It throbbed with the rhythm of his heart, a relentless reminder of the [Dragon’s Vitality] still simmering in his blood.

Kai shook his head, swinging his legs out of bed. "Focus," he muttered. "The hunt is long."

He walked out into the small courtyard. The air was crisp, smelling of damp earth and soap.

Ye Rou was there.

She was by the stone washbasin, scrubbing the family’s clothes. She was in a deep squat, her heels flat on the ground, her knees wide. The position was innocent in intent but sinful in execution.

Her faded dress was pulled tight across her lower body. The fabric strained against the massive, heart-shaped expanse of her ass. Because she was squatting, her glutes were spread and rounded to their limit. Kai could see the deep shadow of her cleft, the way the dress hugged the curve of her hips like a second skin.

As she scrubbed, her body rocked back and forth. Rub. Scrub. Her ass jiggled with a hypnotic rhythm.

Kai froze. His cock twitched violently, straining against his trousers. The memory of the bathroom—of that ass wet and soapy—flashed in his mind.

I could just walk up behind her, the dark voice whispered. She wouldn't stop me. Not after yesterday.

He took a step forward, his hand reaching out.

Then, he stopped. He clenched his fist, feeling the raw power in his new muscles.

"Not now," Kai whispered, shaking his head to clear the haze of lust. "The prize today is bigger."

He forced a smile onto his face. "Mom! I'm off to the Academy!"

Ye Rou started, nearly losing her balance. She turned, her face flushing as she looked up at him from her vulnerable position. "Oh! Kai! Be... be careful today."

"I will," Kai promised. He gave her ass one last, lingering look—burning the image of her spread thighs into his mind—before turning and marching out the gate.

The Academy was quiet. The sun had barely crested the walls, and the mist still clung to the stone training grounds.

Kai didn't go to the main plaza. He went to the secluded "Iron Wood" training grove in the eastern sector. He needed to know what Strength 9 felt like before he faced anyone real.

He stood before a training dummy made of Ironwood—a material known for being as hard as rock.

Kai planted his feet. He didn't use Qi. He didn't use a technique. He just drew his fist back, twisting his waist, and threw a straight punch.

CRACK-BOOM!

The sound was like a cannon shot.

The Ironwood dummy didn't just rock back. The entire chest cavity exploded. Splinters the size of daggers flew through the air. The thick wooden post snapped at the base, sending the top half cartwheeling across the dirt.

Kai stared at his fist. There wasn't even a scratch.

"Peak Mortal Strength," Kai grinned. "I can break bones like twigs."

Hah... Hah...

A sound drifted through the mist. Heavy, ragged breathing. The sound of wet fabric moving against skin.

Kai’s ears pricked up. Someone else was here.

He moved silently, his Agility 5 allowing him to ghost through the trees. He pushed aside a branch of weeping willow and looked into the private clearing beyond.

He stopped. A slow, wicked smile spread across his face.

It was Instructor Li Hua.

But this wasn't the Ice Queen who had looked down on him from the podium. This was a woman at her limit.

She wasn't wearing her stiff, formal uniform. She was wearing a thin, white training gi that was soaked through with sweat. The fabric had turned translucent, clinging desperately to her body.

Her massive breasts heaved with every desperate gasp for air. The wet white cloth was plastered to them, outlining the dark, heavy areolas underneath. Her nipples were hard points pressing against the fabric. Her hair was a mess, sticking to her wet neck.

She was holding a heavy stone sword, her arms trembling.

"One... more..." she gritted out, her voice straining.

She tried to lift the sword for a vertical slash, but her form broke. Her legs wobbled. She stumbled, dropping the sword with a heavy thud, and fell to her knees, panting uncontrollably.

[Ding!]

[Target Identified: Li Hua] [Status: Qi Deviation (Mild) / Exhaustion] [Current State: Vulnerable] [Defense: Lowered]

Kai stepped out of the shadows.

"Tough morning, Instructor?"

Li Hua jerked her head up, her eyes wide. When she saw Kai standing there, looking fresh and arrogant, a flash of humiliation crossed her face.

"You..." She tried to stand, but her legs were jelly. She slumped back onto her heels, her chest bouncing with the movement. "What... are you doing here... trash?"

Even on her knees, she tried to sneer.

Kai didn't bow. He walked toward her, his boots crunching on the gravel.

"I came to break some wood," Kai said, glancing at the shattered dummy behind him, then back to her. "But it looks like you're the one who's broken."

He stopped right in front of her. He loomed over her kneeling form. From this angle, he could look straight down the loose, wet collar of her gi. He saw the deep, sweaty valley of her cleavage, glistening with moisture. The scent of her—salty, musky, and intense—filled his nose.

"How the mighty have fallen," Kai mocked softly. "The great Instructor Li, brought to her knees before she even fights."

Li Hua’s face turned crimson. "Silence! I am... merely testing a new cultivation technique. Leave now, or I will..."

"You will what?" Kai interrupted. He squatted down so they were face to face. "You can barely breathe. If I wanted to, I could do anything to you right now, and you couldn't stop me."

Li Hua’s eyes flashed with fury, but also... fear. She realized he was right. Her Qi was turbulent; she was powerless for the next few minutes.

"You wouldn't dare," she hissed.

"I wouldn't?" Kai reached out.

He didn't strike her. He took a single finger and ran it down the center of her chest, right between her breasts. He dragged his finger through the pool of sweat gathering there.

Li Hua froze. The touch was electric.

"You're soaking wet, Li Hua," Kai whispered, showing her his wet finger. He brought it to his mouth and licked the sweat off. "Salty."

"You... you insolent animal!" Li Hua gasped, her body trembling not from exhaustion now, but from rage and a sudden, confusing spike of heat.

"Save your energy," Kai said, standing up and towering over her again. "Remember our bet? Consider this a preview. When I win... I'm going to work you harder than this. I'm going to make you sweat until you beg for mercy."

He leaned down, his voice dropping to a growl.

"Rest up, Instructor. I want you at your best when I break you."

Chapter 21: The Tiger and the Trap

The morning mist swirled around them, cooling the sweat on Li Hua’s skin but doing nothing to cool the fury in her eyes.

Kai stood over her, his shadow stretching long across the gravel. He checked his internal clock. The [Dragon’s Vitality] buff had flickered out sometime during the night. The buzzing, infinite energy was gone, leaving him with just his own natural reserves.

But he didn't need a buff for this.

He flexed his fingers. His new base stats were permanent. Strength 9. He was no longer a commoner with a stick; he possessed the physical power of a seasoned veteran soldier.

[System Scan]

Target: Li Hua

Current Qi: 2% (Critically Low)

Stamina: 15% (Exhausted)

Status: Prideful / Enraged.

Kai smirked. She was running on fumes. A Ferrari with an empty tank.

"You have a lot of anger for someone who can't even stand up," Kai mocked, taking a deliberate step back to give her space. "Maybe you should crawl back to the faculty lounge and get some tea, old woman."

That did it.

"Old... woman?"

Li Hua’s eyes snapped wide. The insult bypassed her logic and struck directly at her vanity. A vein popped in her forehead. She grabbed the hilt of her dropped training sword, using it as a crutch to force herself upright. Her legs trembled, but she locked her knees.

"You insolent, gutter-born trash," she hissed, her voice low and dangerous. She tossed the sword aside. It clattered loudly on the stones. "I don't need Qi to discipline a dog. I will break your teeth with my bare hands."

"Prove it," Kai said, spreading his arms wide. "No Qi. Just flesh. Unless you're scared your elite technique isn't enough to beat a 'nobody'?"

Li Hua didn't answer with words. She answered with violence.

She lunged.

Even exhausted, she was fast. She was an instructor of the Azure Wind Academy, a master of martial arts. She closed the distance in a blur, her body twisting like a whip. She aimed a high kick at Kai’s temple, her wet pant leg snapping through the air.

Kai didn't dodge. He saw the arc. He saw the tremor in her muscle right before the strike.

She’s fast, but she has no weight behind it.

Kai raised his left arm, blocking the kick hard.

THUD.

The impact rattled his bones—she was strong—but he didn't budge. With Strength 9, he stood like a stone pillar.

Li Hua’s eyes widened. She had expected him to fold. She tried to retract her leg, to flow into a spinning backfist, but her exhausted muscles lagged by a fraction of a second.

That was all Kai needed.

"Too light," Kai growled.

He didn't counter-strike. He stepped in.

He invaded her guard, his chest slamming into hers. Li Hua gasped as the air was driven from her lungs. She tried to bring her knee up into his groin—a vicious, street-fighter move—but Kai caught her thigh with his hand.

His grip was like a vice. He squeezed her wet, muscular thigh, his fingers digging deep into the flesh.

"Let go!" Li Hua shouted, raining punches on his chest. Thud. Thud. Thud.

They hurt, but without Qi reinforcement, they were just human blows. Kai gritted his teeth and took them.

"My turn."

Kai swept his leg behind hers. He hooked her ankle and shoved her chest with his massive strength.

"Down!"

Li Hua lost her footing. She flailed, grabbing onto his tunic, but gravity and exhaustion won.

CRASH.

They hit the ground together, but Kai made sure he was on top.

The impact knocked the remaining breath out of her. She lay on her back in the gravel, stunned, with Kai straddling her waist.

He pinned her instantly. He grabbed her wrists and slammed them into the dirt above her head, holding both of her hands with just one of his.

"Get off!" Li Hua screamed, bucking her hips.

She writhed beneath him, a wild, untamed tiger. Her hips slammed into his crotch repeatedly, grinding against his erection. Her wet gi was in disarray, the collar pulled wide open.

Kai looked down. The view was chaotic and incredibly erotic.

Her struggles caused her massive breasts to heave violently against the thin, sweat-soaked fabric. With her arms pinned above her head, her chest was lifted, displayed proudly. The white cloth was practically transparent from the sweat. Kai could see everything—the pink tint of her skin, the dark, heavy circles of her areolas, and the hard studs of her nipples poking through the wet linen.

"Struggle all you want," Kai panted, leaning down until his face was inches from hers. "You have no energy left, Li Hua. You're empty."

Li Hua gritted her teeth, her face flushed with exertion and humiliation. She tried to kick him, but he used his knees to pin her thighs to the ground.

She was completely immobilized. Spread-eagled. Pinned by the very student she had called trash.

"This... this proves nothing," she spat, though her voice lacked its usual venom. She was breathing hard, her chest rising and falling against Kai’s stomach. "I am... depleted. In a real fight... you would be dead."

"But we aren't in a real fight," Kai whispered. "We're here. And you're on your back."

He shifted his weight. He settled his hips firmly against her pelvis. He let her feel the weight of him. He let her feel the hard ridge of his cock pressing against her stomach through their clothes.

Li Hua froze. Her eyes darted down to where their bodies connected, then back up to his face.

"You..." Her breath hitched. "Get off me. Now."

"Or what?" Kai asked. He released her wrists, but she didn't strike him. Her arms fell limp to the dirt, too heavy to lift.

He placed his hands on the ground on either side of her head, caging her. A drop of sweat fell from his hair and landed on her cheek.

"You lost, Instructor," Kai said softly. "You challenged me, and you ended up on the ground. If this was the tournament... I could do whatever I wanted with you right now."

He let his gaze drop to her chest. He stared openly at her nipples, which were clearly visible through the wet fabric.

"You're a mess," Kai murmured. "Sweaty. Dirty. Defeated."

Li Hua turned her head to the side, refusing to meet his eyes, but a deep, burning blush crept up her neck. She was humiliated, yes. But the sensation of his heavy, strong body pressing her into the earth... the heat radiating from him... it was triggering a reaction she hadn't felt in years.

Her body, betrayed by exhaustion, was responding to his dominance.

"Get... out..." she whispered, her voice trembling.

Kai smirked. He had made his point.

He stood up slowly, removing his weight from her. The cool morning air rushed into the space between them.

Li Hua remained on the ground for a moment, her chest heaving, her legs sprawled open. She looked like she had been ravaged, even though he hadn't removed a single piece of clothing.

Kai dusted off his hands.

"Train harder, Li Hua," Kai said, turning his back on her. "If you're this easy to pin... paying up on our bet is going to be very fun for me."

He walked away into the mist, leaving her lying in the dirt, clutching her torn pride and her wet, aching chest.

Chapter 22: The Yang Serpent

Kai walked into the designated meeting room for Group 9, the scent of Li Hua’s sweat still ghosting his senses. He felt calm, centered, and dangerous.

The room was a small, private dojo with polished wooden floors and incense burning in the corner. His three teammates were already there.

Gu Ling was standing near the window, rubbing her backside unconsciously. When the door opened and she saw Kai, she jumped, her face flushing a mix of anger and shame. She quickly dropped her hand, glaring at him, but she didn't say a word. The memory of his hand on her bare skin was evidently still fresh.

Leng Yue sat in the corner, polishing her sword. She looked up, her gaze lingering on Kai for a second longer than usual, assessing him. She sensed something different—the raw, physical density of his presence had increased.

Yun Xi, the shy commoner, was hiding behind a pillar again, clutching her book to her massive chest. She peeked at Kai, her face turning pink instantly.

"Good... Good morning," Instructor Han Rou stammered.

She stood in the center of the room, wringing her hands. She looked particularly soft today, her robes loose and comfortable, making her look more like a housewife than a martial artist.

"You're late, Kai," Han Rou tried to scold, but it came out as a weak squeak when he looked her in the eye.

"Just getting some exercise, Teacher," Kai smiled, walking to the center of the room. "I'm ready."

Han Rou cleared her throat, adjusting her glasses. "Right. Well. Since we are a newly formed squad, and... and since our cultivation levels are so different... we need to harmonize."

She gestured for them to gather.

"We will perform the 'Spirit Link' ritual," Han Rou explained, avoiding Kai’s gaze. "It is a standard Academy technique. We will form a circle and circulate our Qi through each other. This will allow us to understand each other's meridians and... um... create a bond of trust."

"Trust?" Gu Ling scoffed, though she walked over obediently. "With him?"

"It's mandatory," Han Rou said quickly. "Everyone, form a circle. Hold hands."

They arranged themselves.

Kai stood between Instructor Han Rou and Yun Xi.

"Hand," Kai commanded softly, holding his palm out to Yun Xi.

The girl trembled. She reached out slowly, placing her small, soft hand into his. His hand engulfed hers completely. Her palm was damp with nervous sweat.

"Relax," Kai whispered.

On his other side, Han Rou hesitated. Kai didn't wait. He reached out and grabbed the teacher's hand. Her skin was cool and smooth, soft as silk.

"Close your eyes," Han Rou instructed, her voice shaky. "Focus on your Dantian. Push your energy out through your left hand... and receive energy through your right."

The circle closed. Leng Yue held Gu Ling’s hand and Yun Xi’s other hand.

"Begin."

Kai closed his eyes. He felt the flow immediately.

From his left, he felt Yun Xi’s energy. It was weak, timid, and incredibly soft. It felt like warm milk. It trickled into his palm, shy and hesitant.

From his right, he was supposed to push his energy into Han Rou.

Kai grinned internally. Circulate energy? You mean dominate them.

He tapped into his core. He didn't send a gentle stream. He unleashed the Yang Energy.

It surged out of his right hand like a flood of molten gold. It wasn't just Qi; it was the essence of his Supreme Dual Cultivation System. It was aggressive, hot, and laced with pure, unfiltered lust.

"Ah!" Han Rou gasped aloud.

Her eyes snapped open, but she couldn't break the link. Kai’s energy rushed into her arm, tearing through her meridians with a dominant, conquering force. It didn't feel like normal cultivation energy. It felt like him. It felt like a hot, heavy hand sliding under her skin, caressing her insides.

The energy rushed straight to her lower Dantian—right above her womb.

Han Rou’s knees buckled. A wave of intense, wet heat exploded in her lower belly.

"Teacher?" Gu Ling asked, opening one eye.

"D-Don't break the circle!" Han Rou choked out, her face turning a deep, feverish crimson. "Keep... keep circulating!"

The energy didn't stop with Han Rou. It passed through her, colored by her Yin, and slammed into Gu Ling.

Gu Ling stiffened. "What the...?"

She felt it. A hot, thumping rhythm entered her body. It felt familiar. It felt exactly like the heat of Kai’s hand on her ass yesterday, but now it was inside her. It swirled around her hips, teasing her nerves. Her nipples hardened instantly against her silk undergarments.

"It's... too hot..." Gu Ling whimpered, biting her lip to stop a moan. She squeezed her legs together, trying to quell the sudden itch between her thighs.

The energy moved to Leng Yue.

The Ice Princess frowned. Her cultivation was cold, detached. But Kai’s Yang energy was a roaring fire. It melted through her icy defenses effortlessly. She felt a strange, foreign warmth invade her chest, making her heart race. For the first time in years, she felt hot. Sweat beaded on her forehead. A strange, phantom sensation tickled her lower regions, making her breath hitch.

And finally, it circled back to Yun Xi.

The shy girl didn't stand a chance.

The energy that returned to her was supercharged with the Yin of the other three women and driven by Kai’s dominance.

"Nngh!"

Yun Xi let out a high-pitched squeal. Her legs gave out completely. She slumped, her weight hanging entirely on Kai’s hand and Leng Yue’s grip.

"Yun Xi!" Han Rou cried out, but her voice was breathless and hazy.

Kai didn't let go. He squeezed Han Rou’s hand and Yun Xi’s hand tighter.

"Focus," Kai commanded, his voice dark and authoritative. "Don't fight it. Let it fill you."

He pumped more energy in. He could feel them. He could feel the shape of their meridians. He could feel the wetness gathering between Han Rou’s legs. He could feel the tightness of Gu Ling’s core.

The room grew heavy with the scent of aroused women—a mix of orchids, sweat, and musk.

Han Rou was panting openly now. Her head fell back, her glasses slipping down her nose. The energy was vibrating in her clit, mimicking the sensation of a vibrator.

"Kai... please... it's too much..." Han Rou begged, her hips swaying involuntarily.

"Almost done," Kai whispered.

He gave one final, massive pulse of energy.

Throb.

All four women gasped in unison, their bodies jerking as if struck by lightning.

Kai released their hands.

The circle broke.

Thump. Thump.

Yun Xi collapsed to the floor, panting, her face buried in her hands. Gu Ling stumbled back against the wall, sliding down it until she was sitting, her legs spread, fanning her face frantically.

Han Rou gripped the edge of a table to stay upright. Her legs were trembling violently. She looked at Kai with wide, foggy eyes. Her robe was disheveled, and there was a dark, wet patch forming on the inner thigh of her trousers.

Leng Yue stood still, but she was leaning heavily on her sword. She stared at Kai, her cheeks flushed pink, her breathing ragged.

[Ding!]

[Ritual Complete: Spirit Link] [Result: Absolute Domination.] [Yang Corruption Applied to Squad.] [Affection Updated:]

Han Rou: +15 (Submission/Lust)

Gu Ling: +10 (Confusion/Arousal)

Yun Xi: +20 (Dependency)

Leng Yue: +5 (Curiosity/Heat)

Kai stood in the center of the room, looking at the wreckage of his female squad. He flexed his hands, feeling the lingering taste of their Yin energy on his palms.

"Good session," Kai said, his voice calm, contrasting the heavy, erotic atmosphere of the room. "I feel much closer to all of you now."

He looked at Han Rou, his eyes dropping to the wet spot on her leg.

"Teacher," Kai smirked. "You seem to be leaking Qi. You should be more careful."

Han Rou let out a small, mortified whimper and squeezed her legs together.
