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

Even though Zhou Hongyu launched a sudden attack, Yan Yu's response was incredibly fast, and he was about to counterattack instantly.


However, a thought struck him like lightning: No! I can't dodge!


Hongyu was the captain of the Huofeng Team, the ace cultivator of the Pingxi Army, and a pillar of Lu Country. However, her previous life had ended in such a valueless sacrifice, which was an unbearable loss for the Huofeng Team, the Pingxi Army, and Lu Country.


For the country, for the people, I cannot let her come to harm!


If I were to reject her love, in her despair from heartbreak, who knows what she might do? For the sake of the country, for the people, I...


Overflowing with the fearless spirit of a hero, Yan Yu suppressed his instinct to dodge using great determination and resolutely endured her sneak attack.
