Against Heaven's Will

Chapter 210 Climbing



"They have been staying on the sixty-ninth floor for a while. Don't tell me that's their limit?"

Thousands of top Cultivators were already surrounding the Dragon Tower, making it hard to even approach it but for Ryan and his group, it wasn't a problem. No one was bold enough to get too close to them and risk angering the leading young experts.

"I doubt it. They have been stopping at the last floor of each section for a while. Probably to get their Artefacts or rest. That Liu Xuefeng is not alone so he must be waiting for his women instead of climbing on his own," Ryan guessed as he nodded in approval. "Respectable."

Just as he spoke, the golden color on the Dragon Sculpture moved upwards, finally showing some movement.

"See, I told you. I wouldn't be surprised if they continue their run and reach the hundreds," Ryan called out confidently, surprising people around him.

"Are you sure about that?" Rose doubted. "Wasn't the sixty-ninth floor the highest Xinyu reached so far? I'm sure she improved since last month but surely the jump shouldn't be this high?"

Ryan only shrugged and instead focused on the Dragon Tower. "Something tells me we are in for a surprise. If you didn't notice, all of his women climbed this high with him and they are still going. I wouldn't be surprised if they entered Dragon Ste—"

Ooooh!

He couldn't even finish his words when his words were cut by the cries from the crowd. Sure enough, when they glanced at Dragon Steps ranking, they saw seven new golden names.

[1000. Liu Yi]

[999. Liu Lisa]

[998. Liu Shan]

[997. Liu Yiren]

[996. Liu Wen]

[995. Liu Wuying]

...

[750. Liu Tianshi]

"It's good that Dragon Steps only counts Cultivators under thirty years old else all of us would be pushed out of the top ten," Ryan pointed out playfully. "Since I'm first, I don't need to worry about losing my benefits."

"..."

Rose and the rest from the top five spots didn't laugh at his joke, gazing at him speechlessly.

"Rose, my love," Ryan muttered lovingly as he pulled Rose closer. "Can you see their names? All his wives took his last name as their own. Don't you think you would sound cute after taking mine too?"

"Tsk, sure, I don't mind," Rose replied with a snicker. "But how about you propose to me first? My clan has been waiting for a long time."

She acted like they already been through this conversation before and judging by their friend's faces, they also witnessed it a few times.

"Ah! Why it has to be so complicated? Aren't you already mine? You loving me is all that matters. I don't care about all those formalities," Ryan lamented before he hugged her from behind to divert her attention. "Anyway, forget what I said. Let's focus on what's important right now. They already broke the daily's record!"

Watching the tower, Xuefeng and his wives already distanced themselves from everyone else. Their position created a golden light on the Dragon Sculpture that was steadily moving up.

Seventy-ninth…

Eighty-ninth…

Ninety-ninth...

"Impossible… How could she temper her body so fast?" Rose questioned dumbfounded. "Did she acquire a new bloodline or something?"

Xuefeng and his women were still moving upwards with no one being left behind while their Dragon Steps ranking continued to go down in number. Xuefeng already broke the top three hundred while his wives jumped a hundred spots with a single run. Only Tianshi skipped ranks as fast as Xuefeng, claiming the top five hundred spot.

Reaching the ninety-ninth floor was a big achievement in itself but since it was their only one, the girls couldn't advance as fast as Xuefeng and Tianshi. Those two have already proven themselves in the Water Land Tournament.

The most shocking though was naturally Xinyu who jumped one spot in the most competitive top ten, taking the eighth spot.

"I doubt that. It takes a long time to assimilate with a different bloodline and she entered the Dragon Tower just last month," Ryan's denied. "I might be mistaken but I think all of it is thanks to Xuefeng. What are the chances that all of his women have such a strong constitution? Unless they were met with some recent blessing, it has to be his job."

It wasn't just him who was speculating how it was possible. More and more details were discovered about them, causing the whole House of Dragons to eagerly watch the miracle unfold.

While they were anxious, Xuefeng and the girls weren't in the hurry at all.

"Wuying! Check that double daggers! Aren't they similar to yours?" Shan called out excitedly as she approached one of the rooms. "Want me to take get them for you?"

Wuying walked up and her eyes immediately brightened. "Can you? I already picked the throwing knives from the previous floor."

"Hehe, I know~ That's why I asked," Shan replied with a giggle and pulled out her new shiny Celestial Stage sword.

With one swing, she broke the barrier and picked up the Daggers before throwing them to Wuying. The two were once rivals in love but now they were sisters who didn't mind helping each other.

"Thank you, they are perfect," Wuying expressed as she tested the daggers with a few cuts. "It's such a shame we can only pick one treasure every ten floors. I wish I could test them all out."

"Yeah, but since we are all together, we can share Artefacts we won't be using," Shan pointed out as smiled at everyone. "Thinking about it, we should start looking at some Arts soon. If we are lucky, maybe we can find some Forbidden Arts."

"Sure. We can all share whatever we get with everyone once we leave," Wuying nodded in approval.

If anyone outside heard them, they would definitely turn red from envy. Many dreamed to enjoyed so many treasures from the Dragon Tower.

"Alright, is everyone ready?" Xuefeng called out from the exit before sighing as he gave Xinyu a kiss. "It's okay. Don't push yourself so hard. We can always visit Dragon Tower once again in the future."

Xinyu looked up at him while pouting and sat down on the ground. "Hu… I guess I will stay here and wait for you then."

She was already struggling for the last ten floors but she ended up pushing through this far. Too bad, Xuefeng couldn't help her in any way.

"It sucks to be the first to fall but I knew it would happen eventually. I am actually surprised I reached this far," Xinyu wished as she grabbed onto his hand. "I hope you can reach the top!"

"Mhmm, it won't take long," Xuefeng nodded as he crouched down to kiss her again. His women were adults so he didn't mind leaving them alone for a while.

"I will try to strengthen my body while you are away," Xinyu informed and reminded, "You can still ask me anything if you have questions."

"We will."

He stood up to leave with everyone when he spotted sudden movement in the air.

"Mona!" Yiren called out after the white fox but Mona was like lightning.

Before Xuefeng could react, she was already sitting on his shoulder with three fluffy tails wrapping around him.

"Oh, you recovered?" Xuefeng noticed the improvement from the previous two tails.

"Mhmm, this Tower is good for me. I can recover faster the more pressure it has so I will stay with you," Mona explained before liking her on the cheek. "Maybe I can even recover completely and turn back into a human today."

Xuefeng immediately imagined a beautiful fox lady and couldn't help but swallow.

"Cough, I guess it's another reason to chase the top floor. Let's go!"

His wives couldn't help but give each other a knowing look while Nuwa even pinched his waist.

"Move, move!"
