Chapter 1266: Chapter 1246: Accelerate the Pace, the Thief’s Heart Never Dies!

The temperature suddenly drops at the old dormitory building of the welfare institution as night quietly falls.

"You really insist on this, don’t you? I didn’t even bring a spare!" Liu Tianyun glared at Ye Huan, face flushed, "If the director sees my change later, she’s definitely going to overthink!"

"Let her overthink then, we’re an old married couple, surely she’ll understand." Ye Huan’s lips curl into a mischievous smile, his gaze sweeping over Liu Tianyun.

She is fastening her suit buttons, tidying her outfit, and wearing high heels.

Beneath the tight-fitting, hip-hugging uniform skirt, her long legs that had been encased in ultra-thin black stockings are now unguarded, revealing flawless, white skin.

As for those ultra-thin black stockings now battle-worn, they’ve been stuffed back into Liu Tianyun’s bag.

"She might understand, but I’m really embarrassed!"

Liu Tianyun gave Ye Huan a resentful look, as she tied her sweat-dampened, jet-black hair into a single ponytail behind her back, then helped him button his shirt. She asked softly, "So, have you improved in ancient martial arts?"

"Yes, my bodily limits have been enhanced."

Ye Huan’s expression was vibrant, his right fist clenched, each muscle emitted a crackling sound as if electric current surged through.

This afternoon was his most fruitful session practicing Heaven Opening.

He did three sets of movements, enduring over three minutes of intense bodily soreness, every bone and meridian was thoroughly tempered through the burning pain.

After channeling extreme Yang energy through his meridians, the burning pain subsided.

Replaced with a powerful sensation of strength!

Ye Huan faintly felt that his solid strength had increased substantially, seemingly touching the threshold of Divine King level.

Liu Tianyun gave a sweet smile, teasing, "As long as there’s improvement, otherwise my efforts would be all in vain."

"How could it be in vain? Even if my strength hasn’t changed, hasn’t your ancient martial arts skill also increased?"

Ye Huan laughed. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

He could see that Liu Tianyun’s ancient martial arts skills had broken through the initial tier of the Divine Guard and reached the intermediate tier.

Achieving such a breakthrough in just a month is truly rapid.

"Thanks to you." Liu Tianyun gave Ye Huan a peck, feeling quite buoyant. Her strengthened abilities meant Ye Huan wouldn’t need to worry much about the Fragrance Pavilion when busy externally.

After helping Ye Huan with his clothes, she blinked her large, clear eyes: "The Tai Chi Soft Fist you taught me last time, I feel I’ve pretty much mastered it. Could you teach me another self-defense technique?"

Ye Huan was stunned, surprised: "Already mastered? Perform once so I can see."

Liu Tianyun nodded in agreement, moved to an open space, her expression turning serious at once. Her legs spread apart, palms moved like a swimming dragon through the air, hitting and retracting.

After observing for about two minutes, Ye Huan internally marveled, thinking Liu Tianyun is worthy of being the "Phoenix Maiden."

No one matches this ancient martial talent!

In less than a month, she practiced Tai Chi Soft Fist, a core defensive counter-attack technique of ancient martial arts, to mastery!

Ye Huan estimated, with Liu Tianyun’s current power, she’s able to remain undefeated even against higher-tiers beyond hers!

Even initial-tier Divine Generals can’t easily harm her!

"You’re practicing well, but aside from Heaven Opening, Eight Gates Escape Armor, and Tai Chi Soft Fist, I haven’t grasped other ancient martial techniques, so I can’t teach you other attack methods." Ye Huan praised her after pondering a moment, and continued, "Now, the only way I can help you improve your abilities is by enhancing your physical qualities. Though practicing Heaven Opening with me boosts your physical capabilities immensely, it hasn’t reached the limit yet."

"Starting today, run twenty kilometers within an hour around the neighborhood or somewhere. The faster, the better, constantly break your limits, and then do three thousand push-ups and squats."

"This way, you can train your stamina and physique, achieving both ends."

"What? Are you implying my physique has worsened?" Liu Tianyun huffed, deliberately showing a bit of displeasure.

Women are always sensitive about their appearances.

"Not worsened, just even more attractive, though there’s always room for growth."

"Moreover, growing is good, after sorting my issues, with enough time to accompany you, won’t you let me enjoy even more of your beauty?"

Ye Huan’s lips curled upwards, his conversation abruptly shifted, with a soft smile he said, "Honey, although I don’t have much time to be with you now, it may not be long before I have ample time to stay by your side."

Liu Tianyun’s expression slightly changed: "You mean..."

"Yes, I sense that my ultimate duel with the series might be imminent."

"But..." Liu Tianyun was full of worry, gritted her teeth, and said, "The time is too tight, can you grow to be able to confront the series?"

"It’s tough, but with Heaven Opening, there’s a possibility of creating miracles." Ye Huan said with deep meaning, "From now on, I will seize every spare moment to practice Heaven Opening, during this time you might feel ’wronged.’"

"Wronged for what? Training with you also enhances my skills. Besides, I’m happy enough to improve our bond regularly. Once I return, I’ll let Sister Zhang take over and handle the company’s daily operations, I’ll focus on providing you ’support’ at home." Liu Tianyun was eager, expressing longing, reassuring Ye Huan so he could practice Heaven Opening boldly without worries.

Ye Huan wasn’t foolish, realizing Liu Tianyun’s intention, felt touched, embraced her tightly, and spoke softly, "Once I eliminate the series, completely handle everything around me, I’ll buy an island, take you all there, and live a life in paradise."

"And bear you a child."

Liu Tianyun’s tone sweetened, she gave Ye Huan another fragrant kiss, then said, "Almost done, let’s go."

As they left the dormitory building, Liu Tianyun curiously asked, "Darling, why did you suddenly decide to come to the welfare institution?"

"I wanted to ask the director some things about your adoption back then, so I came."

Ye Huan was speaking, then suddenly...

"Clang!"

"Crack!"

"Duang!!!"

"%!#%%@￥#5!"

A burst of smashing sounds and clamorous noises came from the welfare institution’s courtyard!

Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun’s expressions changed, knowing something major had happened, they ran toward the sound!

After running for a long time, seeing from a distance of one thousand meters a heavily made-up, flamboyantly dressed woman in the courtyard, Liu Tianyun’s face turned icy, teeth gritted, "Wang Hong, this cursed one, truly won’t give up!"
