Quiet Blessing

In my previous life, I was half a move short and ultimately failed to reach the summit.
Having traveled back to the past, this time... I want to become the strongest in this world!
To become the strongest in this world, one only needs three simple steps:
1. Pick up a newly-transferred Demonic Sect Enchantress off the streets.
2. Subdue and vanquish the demon.
3. Take her cultivation technique for myself.
Awesome! I'm already invincible!

Years later, Yan Yu, who had earned the title of "the strongest," was interviewed on television:
Host: To whom do you want to give thanks for your success today?
Yan Yu: I'd like to thank a very important woman to me.
Host (eyes lighting up): Oh, is she your wise and virtuous wife?
Yan Yu: No, consider her a stepping stone, I suppose.
Host (wiping sweat): Then... what about the other members of your team? They must have helped you as well, right?
Yan Yu: ... How could there possibly be only one stepping stone on the path to godhood?

Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest

Chen Lingyun and Yan Jing came back from the army canteen, their arms full of snacks.


Previously, at the Sisters' Snack Club, the small cakes eaten were bought by Su Yunjin, and other consumed snacks depleted the personal reserves of Zhao Yuanzhen and Xie Ruoxi, so the two later decided to go buy an equal amount of snacks to replenish their stocks.


Holding the snacks, Chen Lingyun walked into the house, only to find Yan Yu sitting on the couch, deep in contemplation.


Yan Jing, feeling a bit of a bathroom emergency, set down the snacks and dashed to the washroom, but found it locked from the inside with the sound of a shower running.


"If you need the toilet, go upstairs. Your sister Zhao is showering in there," Yan Yu said.


Without a word, Yan Jing immediately dashed to the second floor.


"Taking a shower?" Chen Lingyun broke into a knowing smile. "That intense of a game?"


"Shut up," said Yan Yu seriously. "Tell me honestly, was it you who helped my sister with her plan?"
