Ding Shuang walked towards the family compound with Ya Fei’s underwear in her hand, not caring what would happen to Ya Fei afterward. Since she already had Ya Fei under control, she wasn’t afraid of Ya Fei’s revenge.

　　As soon as Ding Shuang stepped out of the teahouse, she heard the system’s notification: “Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. Rewards include 100 Transmigration Points, two Golden Lottery Draws, and one E-grade Function Card.”

　　Ding Shuang opened the panel and started looking at it.

　　Possesses the trait: Wealthy (Valid only in the world of “Battle Through the Heavens”)

　　Rewards: 10 Gold Lottery Draws, 1 E-Rank Function Card

　　Soul slaves in this world: Xiao Xun’er, Ya Fei

　　”I’m one step closer to home,” Ding Shuang sighed every time she saw her travel points increase. She’d been in this world for so long that she was afraid she’d forget she even had a home. But as long as she couldn’t forget Feifei, she would always remember she had a home.

　　This time, Ya Fei provided her “Desire Emperor’s Heart Manual” with 5,000 experience points. This was the first time Ding Shuang had known how much experience a woman could provide on her first time. Recalling Xun’er’s first time, Ding Shuang felt like he had lost a fortune again.

　　I’ve finally accumulated 10 draws in the Gold Lottery; time for a 10-draw! But what’s that E-rank function card next to it? I should ask the system first. “System, what does this function card do?”

　　”Host, the E-level function card allows you to exchange for an E-level card with a special function. We suggest you exchange for an E-level skill enhancement card now to improve your F-level suppression technique.”

　　”Oh, okay, I’ll take your suggestion and exchange it.”

　　”Okay, host, the exchange was successful. The E-level skill upgrade card has been placed in your backpack.”

　　Ding Shuang opened her backpack with a thought and found the only remaining card in the gift pack. She took it out to look at it.

　　An E-rank skill upgrade card can upgrade any of the host’s F-rank skills to E-rank. The card disappears after use.

　　Following the system’s advice, Ding Shuang upgraded the Suppression Technique to Rank E, resulting in a change in the technique.

　　The E-rank suppression technique can suppress the host’s level, but only one level (Level 1) can be suppressed at a time, and each suppression takes 10 minutes. After the level is suppressed, the host can release the suppression at any time, but only one level (Level 1) can be released at a time, and each release takes 10 minutes. After the host’s level is suppressed, their strength will decrease, but their true level will remain unchanged.

　　Ding Shuang carefully read the introduction to the E-level Suppression Technique. The only difference between it and the F-level technique was the last sentence: at the F-level, both strength and true level would decrease, but at the E-level, only strength would decrease, and the true level would remain unchanged. In other words, there was no need to fear that suppressing the level would cause the soul slave to break free of control. The system’s suggestion was really good.

　　Ding Shuang was in a great mood and said to the system, “Your suggestion is good. Please give me more suggestions in the future.”

　　”Host, since this is your first time transmigrating, and you’ve entered an SSS-level world, to prevent you from dying prematurely, we will only provide you with some survival advice before you grow stronger. There will be no further advice. Once you’ve grown stronger, we will not provide you with any further advice.”

　　”Holy crap! Will you die if you don’t tell the truth? Just keep quiet and smile! Although I can’t see your smile either!” Ding Shuang mentally cursed the system.

　　Complaints aside, things still need to be done. I’ve finally saved up enough gold for a ten-pull, time to start the lottery!

　　”System, I want a ten-pull of gold!”

　　”Alright, host, a ten-pull golden draw has been initiated for you. Rewards are being drawn. Congratulations, host, you have obtained an F-grade sword, an E-grade wine jug, and the D-grade skill Appraisal. It has been detected that you already possess the F-grade Appraisal skill, so it has been automatically upgraded to D-grade. Unfortunately, host, you haven’t drawn anything… Unfortunately, host, you haven’t drawn anything…”

　　Seeing that the reward levels in the draw increased from F to D, Ding Shuang was delighted, thinking she would get C and B level rewards, only to be disappointed by two consecutive losses. Ding Shuang sighed and lamented, “What an unlucky person!”

　　”Congratulations, host, you have won the grand prize, a B-grade cultivation technique upgrade card!” With the tenth draw, the guaranteed reward finally appeared.

　　Ding Shuang’s ten-pull ended in two empty draws. The eight rewards she received are as follows:

　　There is an F-grade sword, which is an ordinary sword that is as common as it gets. Even the description says it is just an ordinary sword.

　　One Grade E flask, gourd-shaped, with a small internal space. It’s equivalent to 10 flasks, which is great for alcoholics. However, since Ding Shuang doesn’t like drinking, it’s not very useful for him. He can give it away later.

　　The D-level Appraisal Technique can identify items no higher than D-level and creatures no higher than two realms above the user’s own. So far, Ding Shuang hasn’t used the Appraisal Technique much, and doesn’t find it very useful.

　　Grade F cold medicine, the kind you buy at the pharmacy, is all in the prize pool. Ding Shuang is speechless. Ding Shuang is in great health right now, how could she possibly catch a cold?

　　Two Grade E Upgrade Pills can increase your own level by 1. These pills cannot be used if your level is above 20 and will not upgrade your secondary world level. They can be given to others.

　　An E-grade throwing knife, slightly better than an F-grade sword, is at the level of a good weapon, but still falls within the category of ordinary weapons.

　　Grade B Cultivation Technique Upgrade Card: Can upgrade any cultivation technique to level two. Can be used by others. The card disappears after use.

　　Ding Shuang sighed. Of the ten consecutive draws, only the pills and cultivation technique upgrade cards were decent; the rest were useless. The pills could only increase the level in the present world and could only be used after returning home. Looking around, only the upgrade cards from the guaranteed reward were useful. His Desire Emperor’s Heart Scripture had already reached level three, so he could only upgrade the Taming Woman Heart Scripture.

　　Ding Shuang used a B-level skill enhancement card to upgrade the “Manipulating Women’s Heart Sutra” and the “Desire for Women’s Heart Sutra” to the second level.

　　The “Manipulating Women’s Heart Sutra,” a top-tier cultivation technique, level two, allows one to extract the lustful energy from a woman during intercourse, enhancing their own energy and helping the woman purify her own. By completing over 50 cycles of the “Desire Emperor’s Heart Sutra” and the “Manipulating Women’s Heart Sutra” during intercourse and ejaculating inside her, one can achieve soul control over the woman, but only on women of lower levels. After the first time a woman is controlled, she learns the “Desire Woman’s Heart Sutra” and it operates automatically. The host can help the woman learn this technique, which is called the “Desire Woman’s Heart Sutra.” During its cultivation, the woman will generate a very small amount of sexual desire, which she will generate and absorb during intercourse with men other than the host. The level of the “Desire Woman’s Heart Sutra” is the same as the host’s level.

　　After reading the introduction to the “Manipulating Women’s Heart Sutra,” Ding Shuang nodded. Not bad. Now, anyone with a lower level than himself can be controlled. It seems the day he regains control of Xiao Mei is fast approaching.

　　Ding Shuang returned to her clan and first went to report to Xiao Zhan, saying she hadn’t found the cause. Xiao Zhan sighed and waved for Ding Shuang to leave.

　　Ding Shuang walked towards her house, wondering if she was being a bit dishonest. Was it really okay to keep it from Xiao Zhan like this? Oh well, she’d just surprise Xiao Zhan at her coming-of-age ceremony.

　　Ding Shuang returned to her residence, pushed open the door, and saw Xun’er sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling at her. Ding Shuang scratched her head, feeling apologetic, and said, “Xun’er, have you kept me waiting? Is everything resolved?”

　　Xiao Xun’er nodded and said, “Yes, it’s resolved. It seems Brother Xiao Yan’s matter is also resolved. Sister Ya Fei’s breasts are much bigger than Xun’er’s!”

　　Ding Shuang looked at Xun’er somewhat awkwardly, unsure how to explain, and quickly changed the subject, “What exactly is going on between you and Xiao Mei?”

　　Xiao Xun’er knew Ding Shuang was changing the subject and didn’t pursue the matter between him and Ya Fei. Given Ding Shuang’s sexual prowess and desire, she couldn’t possibly handle him alone. Besides, Ding Shuang’s talent was astonishing; in just five months, he had risen from the fourth to the eighth level. Given the opportunity, he would undoubtedly become a top figure on the continent. It was normal for such a person to have multiple wives and concubines, and besides, she would be leaving soon, so she didn’t want Ding Shuang to suffer too much.

　　Xiao Xun’er smiled slightly and said, “I told you last time about how I accidentally bumped into Sister Mei’er and Xiao Ning, right?”

　　Ding Shuang’s heart tightened, but she still nodded to indicate that she remembered the matter.

　　Xiao Xun’er continued, “Actually, after Sister Mei’er talked to me, I witnessed her having sex with other people a few times, each time with a different member of her clan. It was as if Sister Mei’er deliberately let me see it. Later, Sister Mei’er came to me several times, saying that you were no good and how amazing other men were. I don’t believe it now; Sister Mei’er is definitely slandering you. Sigh, when you were outstanding, Sister Mei’er was always clinging to you. Ever since your cultivation plummeted, Sister Mei’er has distanced herself from you and even slandered you in front of me.”

　　Xiao Xun’er actually disliked Xiao Mei quite a bit, but considering that Xiao Mei had also given her virginity to Ding Shuang, and not knowing what place Xiao Mei held in Ding Shuang’s heart, she still addressed Xiao Mei as “Sister Mei’er” in her words.

　　Ding Shuang remained silent, her expression calm, watching Xun’er as she waited for her to continue. Xun’er continued, “After that, I started to distance myself from Sister Mei’er and stopped acting alone within the clan. Sister Mei’er didn’t contact me again either. Until one night last month, Sister Mei’er came to my residence and confronted me. She said she would give me a month to consider, and that I had to agree to have that illicit affair with Xiao Ning, or she would reveal the secret of your possession of the cultivation technique. After saying that, she left.”

　　Ding Shuang gritted her teeth in hatred. That damned Xiao Ning had repeatedly instigated Xiao Mei to harm Xun’er! Should she just find a chance to kill him? But then she thought of Xiao Ning’s sister; if she really killed Xiao Ning, she’d probably lose all chance with this long-legged beauty. Ding Shuang asked Xun’er, “Today is the deadline, Xun’er, what was your answer?”

　　Seeing Ding Shuang’s resentful expression, Xiao Xun’er was secretly delighted. She loved seeing Ding Shuang jealous, but her face remained smiling as she said, “Xun’er told Sister Mei’er that Xun’er has given everything to Brother Xiao Yan. If Sister Mei’er dares to reveal Brother Xiao Yan’s secret, Xun’er will wipe out the entire Xiao family to keep Brother Xiao Yan’s secret.”

　　Ding Shuang stared at Xun’er in astonishment, never expecting this girl to be so domineering! She also felt a surge of sweetness in her heart; Xun’er had actually told Xiao Mei that she had given herself entirely to her. She truly was her good Xun’er.

　　Ding Shuang tried to hug Xun’er, but Xun’er pushed her away. Xun’er continued, “Brother Xiao Yan, Sister Mei’er’s matter isn’t completely resolved either. Brother Xiao Yan possesses the secret of the cultivation technique. If this problem isn’t solved, it will always be a hidden danger.”

　　Ding Shuang frowned in thought. Xiao Mei’s current level was the same as his, so she definitely wouldn’t be cultivating as fast as him. Once his level surpassed hers, he would re-establish soul control, and Xiao Mei’s problem would no longer be a problem. It was a pity he didn’t have the chance to sleep with Xiao Mei now; otherwise, a burst of Primordial Desire would have solved all the problems. He had been too confident back then, letting Xiao Mei develop freely.

　　Ding Shuang asked Xun’er, “Did Xiao Mei tell anyone about the cultivation technique?” If Xiao Mei really did tell Xiao Ning and the others the secret of the technique, they would kill Xiao Ning even if they couldn’t have Xiao Yu. She herself wasn’t fully grown yet, and there were too many possibilities that could lead to her death. Especially since she had slightly altered the plot. Although Ding Shuang tried her best to avoid anything that might affect the main storyline, the situation was now somewhat out of her control. She didn’t know how much impact she had had on the main storyline so far, and it seemed she would have to be more careful in the future.

　　Xiao Xun’er replied to Ding Shuang, “Sister Mei’er probably hasn’t told anyone the secret of the cultivation technique yet. She’s probably just using the secret to blackmail me and force me to comply. I gave Sister Mei’er a month to consider it, to let her leave everyone and return to your side.”

　　Ding Shuang was somewhat speechless, not expecting Xun’er to say such a thing to Xiao Mei? To make Xiao Mei cut off all ties and come back. Ding Shuang looked at Xun’er tenderly, deeply moved, and said, “A month is enough. Don’t worry, Xun’er, I will definitely resolve this matter. Perhaps it won’t even take a month.”

　　Xiao Xun’er asked with some confusion, “How does Brother Xiao Yan plan to resolve this?”

　　”It’s simple, just surpass Xiao Mei in cultivation. Time is of the essence, let’s work harder and start cultivating.” After saying that, Ding Shuang pounced on Xun’er and pushed her onto the bed.

　　Xiao Xun’er exclaimed in surprise, “Ah! Brother Xiao Yan is so mean! He’s bullying Xun’er again!”

　　That night, the sounds of slapping and Xun’er’s moans rose and fell in Ding Shuang’s room, and at one point the slapping sound turned into a series of slapping sounds.
