333: 333.
Startled Awake 333: 333.
Startled Awake “Aiyoho~ our Daoist Lu has returned~”
Xiao Cha ran over gleefully, her cheeks rosy and glistening with beads of sweat.
But as she got closer and took a detailed look at Lu Li, the girl’s expression changed slightly:
“You must have had a tough ti on this trip…
You’re not hurt, are you?”
Lu Li smiled and said, “I’m fine…
Can you really tell?”
“You look exhausted, but there’s a killing intent in your eyes, so you definitely had a big fight~”
Xiao Cha, with her clear black and white eyes, was spot on.
It was also because they knew each other too well, so they could detect the slightest changes.
Lu Li replied with a smile, “Indeed, there was quite a battle and fortunately, it resulted in a great harvest.
No shortage of Spirit chanism for now…
Oh~ that’s right.”
He turned to Xia Weiyun and said, “I’ve also got the betrothal gifts ready.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a puppet opened the money chest, revealing the glittering gold bricks.
“There’s no need for so much…”
With a blushed face, Xia Weiyun said, “That’s got to be 14 tons.
Just take out one ton as a gesture; the rest can be kept.”
“Puhaha~ Sister Xia hasn’t even married over yet, and she’s already saving money for her future husband’s family~”
Xiao Cha teased rcilessly, and Xia Weiyun, with a lifted head, responded:
“We’re both hopefuls for the Golden Body Realm.
Shouldn’t we prepare so gold?
We can’t empty our coffers just for the sake of appearances.”
Her words made sense, but Xiao Cha paused for a second upon hearing them:
“A Great Grandmaster of the Golden Body Realm?
?”
“That’s right~”
Xia Weiyun said it as if it were obvious:
“You achieved Blood Exchange Great Success at just eighteen.
Even the True Inheritors of our Dragon Sect can’t compare to you.
You definitely should aim for the Golden Body Realm.”
“Eh…”
Xiao Cha rubbed her head, still not used to the sudden change in status.
Last year she was just a Bone Forging country girl, and now she suddenly beca a person with the potential to be a Great Grandmaster…
She looked at Lu Li—following this man…
her life’s trajectory changed too drastically!
But Lu Li seed to think the change wasn’t drastic enough and suddenly said:
“Don’t worry about the gold for now, co~ take this Spirit chanism, and strive to beco Great Grandmasters soon~”
First, he bit Xiao Cha’s mouth corner, transferring two units of Spirit chanism.
Then he moved to bite Xia Weiyun.
Xia Weiyun was stunned and said, “Again?
But I still have so left from the last ti you gave…
Mmm…”
Lu Li didn’t bother with further words and directly bit her, transferring the Spirit chanism.
“Divine!”
Xia Weiyun was overwheld with shock, even forgetting to resist:
“Is this Divine Item supposed to be taken on schedule, just like als?
Then my previous goal seems too low…”
After completing the transfer to her, Lu Li looked up and asked, “Where’s Wanqing?”
“Husband~”
Wanqing walked over from the storeroom, gently smiling as she said:
“I’ve made quite a few calming essential oils with that machine of yours, to be included as part of the betrothal gifts.”
Just having gold for a betrothal gift was too vulgar, but with calming essential oil that even those in the Soul Ergence Realm could use, the class of the gift was instantly elevated.
“You’ve thought this through so well!” Lu Li praised with a smile:
“Co~ take this Spirit chanism, and then help out with a back massage, I’m really exhausted.”
Lu Li kissed Wanqing, transferring the Spirit chanism.
But after two units, he kept transferring without stopping.
“Ooh, Husband, that’s enough…”
“Not enough, I want to see just how much your Vermilion Bird can take~”
Wanqing was no ordinary person, two units of Spirit chanism were far from enough.
Previously there weren’t enough resources, but now, of course, he would let her have her fill.
Lu Li gave it his all, transferring a full 100 units before he felt any resistance and stopped.
“Truly worthy of the Vermilion Bird, even a Flying Sword can only absorb 20 units at most.”
Lu Li clicked his tongue in amazent.
Wanqing had absorbed so much energy that her eyes had turned a fiery red.
Inside her Sea of Consciousness, the Vermilion Bird was dancing frantically, absorbing a massive amount of Spirit chanism and refining it before feeding it back to its master.
A whole 100 units of Spirit chanism, and considering that Wanqing was one of the Four Spirits bestowed from the heavens, there was bound to be a good show.
However, at that mont, all she felt was a dizzy head and a burning body, barely managing to say:
“My Husband has given too much… I am unworthy of such a gift.”
“Rest easy and make use of it, I am currently not lacking in Spirit chanism… Now, let help you back to your room to rest.”
Lu Li carried Wanqing back to the room, letting her lie on the bed to comfortably refine and assimilate the energy.
However, this ant that the pleasure of getting his back stepped on had to be postponed.
Lu Li felt a tinge of regret, but as soon as he stepped out of the room, Xiao Cha hopped over and said,
“Looking for a back-stepping?
Co, let do it~”
“You?”
Lu Li stared at Xiao Cha’s size 38 feet with so hesitation.
Xiao Cha punched him, scolding playfully:
“What’s with that look!
I’ve been practicing Refining Spirit ditation, you know.
During your absence, I learned it from Wanqing!”
“Oh, I see, in that case, bring it on.”
Back-stepping, also called stepping on stools, has a history of over 2000 years.
Despite using feet, it’s a sophisticated skill in traditional dicine.
Xiao Cha had always been casual and straightforward, and Lu Li actually didn’t quite believe she could master it in a short ti.
But not wanting to hurt her feelings, he went inside with her.
Only Xia Weiyun was left standing dumbfounded in the yard, seemingly stunned by the barrage of Spirit chanism, motionless for a long ti.
~~~~~~~~~
In the room, Lu Li took off his shirt and lay face down on the bed.
Xiao Cha took off her shoes and socks, revealing her fair feet before she vigorously hopped, landing squarely on Lu Li’s back.
Lu Li was tense at first, but Xiao Cha’s control over her strength was incredibly precise.
The girl also had the skill “Body Follows the Will” and her years of martial arts training had given her a fine grasp of strength control.
What mattered most was that she genuinely wanted to make Lu Li comfortable.
A pair of springy feet kneaded his muscles, while lively toes swiftly pressed on his acupoints, delivering a vigorous and cozy experience.
The weariness and exhaustion from Blue Star faded away into nothingness.
Lu Li closed his eyes and humd contentedly.
Xiao Cha said proudly, “How is it?
Wanqing says I step really well~”
“Indeed impressive, I underestimated you.”
Lu Li’s entire body relaxed, he settled in to enjoy it, and eventually drifted into a drowsy sleep.
Xiao Cha gently moved down then lay beside Lu Li, gazing at his slightly weary side profile.
“Rember when we first t?
I wanted to haul him off to the station, haha.”
Xiao Cha chuckled to herself, then watched Lu Li, whispering,
“I’m not that clueless girl anymore, I am going to beco a Great Grandmaster.
To stand by his side, I need to be a Great Grandmaster…”
While the girl was lost in her thoughts, Lu Li suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.
“You should sleep if you’re tired.
Why the sudden wake-up?”
Lu Li spoke seriously, “I just rembered sothing important!”
Seeing him wake up so abruptly and with such an expression, Xiao Cha thought it was sothing serious.
But then, she saw Lu Li raise his hand, summoning a pile of strange objects.
“I just rembered I brought back a lot of stockings; wear them and step on my back again!”
Xiao Cha: “…”
Such nylon products had appeared in the Otherworld, though their craftsmanship was nowhere near as refined as on Blue Star.
The emotional mont from before vanished without a trace, Xiao Cha clenched her fist, wanting to punch the pervert in front of her.
Lu Li remained oblivious, even pulling out a pair of black stockings to put on Xiao Cha’s feet.
“Your legs are long, these will look great on you~”
“You this…
“pervert”…”
As they were about to frolic, the door was suddenly burst open by Xia Weiyun.
She spoke with solemn urgency, “I am ready to ascend to the Innate Realm!”
