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!

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?

When they were eating, they preferred to close the doors to avoid disturbances, waiters and wine bearers excepted.


Among the team members, Zhou Hongyu enjoyed both food and drink immensely, liking spicy dishes while Zhang Huaide was the total opposite, very restrained in eating and drinking; however, Meng Qingxi speculated that the vice-captain's drinking capacity was immense, definitely a heavy drinker.
