Shen Qingzhi looked at Su Luo’s expression and knew exactly what he was thinking. She smiled gently, "I trust in your strength. You don’t need to worry that I’ll look at you strangely."
Su Luo, "Really?"
"I’ve experienced it twice already, once in the hotel, and then... in that cave... have you forgotten?" Aunt Shen smiled as she spoke, but the ntion of those incidents caused a blush to rise uncontrollably on her face.
"It was comforting," Su Luo said with a bitter smile.
"Aunt Shen, let take you ho first," he then insisted.
"You’re entering a period of weakness; won’t it be very dangerous?" Shen Qingzhi was reluctant to leave, worried about Su Luo.
"Don’t worry, it’s just a period of weakness; there’s no life-threatening danger,"
Su Luo reassured with a smile, not wanting Aunt Shen to be overly concerned about him.
"That’s true, troubles tend to last for a thousand years," Shen Qingzhi said with a laugh.
"Where am I causing trouble? Who have I troubled?" Su Luo feigned anger.
"You’ve troubled , and... Ruoxi, isn’t that enough?" Shen Qingzhi gave him a sidelong glance.
Su Luo was at a loss for words.
He couldn’t argue against it.
"Aunt Shen, let take you ho first," Su Luo repeated firmly, wanting to ensure her safety while he still had strength, so at least he wouldn’t have to worry about Aunt Shen.
"Don’t worry, I’m at the Seventh Level of Qi Refining now; I also know the Invisibility Technique, I can get ho," Shen Qingzhi reassured.
Seeing this, Su Luo no longer insisted.
For he could already feel the essence of his blood draining away, being absorbed into the Chaos Bead.
It was sowhat painful, but not unbearable.
After all, the mysterious woman was drawing out his essence blood in a gentle manner, not stripping him of his Chaotic Bloodline.
However, his face visibly paled.
His entire being visually weakened.
If Su Luo was like a fierce tiger a minute ago, he now resembled a sick cat.
"Su Luo, are you alright?" Shen Qingzhi hurried over to support him, her brows and eyes brimming with concern.
Despite his weakness, Su Luo managed a wan smile, "Aunt Shen, don’t worry, I’m fine. If you don’t believe , help up and I might just be able to demonstrate my strength."
"You’re still joking at a ti like this," Shen Qingzhi shot him a look and quickly helped him lie down on the bed.
"How can I help you?" she then asked.
The reason she didn’t want to leave was because of her worry for Su Luo. She wanted to see if there was anything she could do to assist him.
Could you lie in my arms?" Su Luo asked weakly, looking at Shen Qingzhi.
Without asking why, Shen Qingzhi kicked off her shoes, climbed onto the bed, and carefully lay beside Su Luo, avoiding hurting him. She nestled quietly in his arms, her head gently resting on his arm, her cheek against his chest, and asked, "Is this better for you?"
Su Luo nodded.
Though weakened... and despite... the frustration of being interrupted at the critical mont of embracing Aunt Shen... he felt a twinge of regret...
But at this mont, Su Luo felt contented.
With Aunt Shen in his arms, the scent of her softness, the gentle sweetness... it gave Su Luo an illusory sense that he and Aunt Shen were already married, like a loving couple lying quietly in bed, enjoying the sweet blissfulness.
Not only did Su Luo feel this way, but at that mont, Shen Qingzhi was also a bit lost in reverie.
In the past, she had been forced to be with Zhou Shihao as a re trophy, feeling indifferent to the world, never imagining that one day she would willingly and contentedly lie in a man’s arms, enjoying that kind of happiness.
The appearance of Su Luo had brought new hope to her life.
He had opened a new world for her.
And likewise, he had unlocked her sealed heart.
This little man... had already walked into her heart.
"Having absorbed your Chaos Essence Blood, I need to sleep for a while," the mysterious woman’s voice echoed in Su Luo’s mind at this ti.
She was going to sleep?
Didn’t that an... that during his most vulnerable ti to co, he wouldn’t have any protection?
Was it really necessary to be this underhanded?
Just as Su Luo thought life was bitter, the mysterious woman’s voice echoed in his mind once more, "I forgot to tell you, you can use the "Yin Yang Longevity thod" and dual cultivate with her, and you will recover very quickly."
Su Luo’s eyes suddenly brightened.
Dual cultivation with Aunt Shen could speed up recovery?
"Yin Yang Longevity Technique?"
Imdiately after, Su Luo’s expression changed slightly. He hurriedly communicated with the mysterious woman, "Senior, so... the Yin Yang Longevity Technique, is it sothing you passed on to ? Not the inheritance my grandfather left to ?"
"Yes," admitted the mysterious woman.
"I knew it, how could my grandfather possibly leave such a dual cultivation technique," Su Luo secretly thought.
Then he asked, "So, that night with Lin Ruoxi, when things went awry... was it you who facilitated it, Senior?"
"Yes," the mysterious woman said.
Su Luo: "..."
"It was to save you, and also to grant you an opportunity," the mysterious woman explained.
Su Luo: "..."
Forget it.
What had happened, had happened. Holding the mysterious woman responsible now was futile... moreover, it seed like he was not capable of holding her accountable, anyway.
Willing but powerless, huh?
Willing but powerless?
Suddenly, Su Luo hurriedly communicated with the mysterious woman again, "Senior, Senior... you said that by dual cultivating with Aunt Shen using the "Yin Yang Longevity thod", I could quickly recover, but... in my current state, I’m so weak... I’m literally willing but powerless..."
Once again the mysterious woman telepathically communicated, "Who told you dual cultivation necessarily ans making love between a man and a woman?"
Su Luo was taken aback.
Isn’t it?
The mysterious woman said, "Alright, I am going to sleep now. You should carefully study the "Yin Yang Longevity thod", figure it out for yourself."
And then, the mysterious woman fell silent.
Gone was her voice.
Even as Su Luo tried to communicate with her again... it was to no avail, there was no response anymore.
"Are you thinking about sothing? Or are you feeling unwell again?"
Seeing Su Luo had stopped talking and seed to be daydreaming, Shen Qingzhi hurriedly asked, constantly attentive to Su Luo’s condition.
"I was thinking about dual cultivation," Su Luo blurted out.
Shen Qingzhi’s face turned slightly red, and she reached out with her soft, snow-white, milk-like delicate hand to gently pat Su Luo’s chest, "You’re like this, and you’re still thinking about those things? Can’t you have so healthier thoughts?"
"Aunt Shen, what if I told you... the dual cultivation I just ntioned isn’t what you think it is, would you believe ?" Su Luo, extrely weak, spoke with a bit of breathlessness.
