Chapter 1273: Chapter 1323: Successful Promotion
Li Yifei told his family that there’s a rapid thod for cultivating True Qi, which imdiately piqued everyone’s interest. For people who don’t know anything about martial arts, cultivating True Qi feels near impossible. The won in Li Yifei’s house are no exception. While they might not live in luxury, their delicate skin and pampered lifestyles make it clear that they’ve had it easy—except for Su Yiyi, who’s endured a harder life than most. Li Xinyue and Song Lianyao had relatively humble backgrounds before, but the rest were practically raised inside honey pots.
Every day, they perford dull, repetitive movents without seeing any results. Most of them lost interest within a few days. Only Su Yiyi and Su ngxin kept at it, while the rest would halfheartedly mimic the moves whenever they rembered—then quickly drop the effort.
Now that they learned there’s a shortcut, their lost enthusiasm was reignited.
But when they saw the tub filled with murky, black water, everyone furrowed their brows.
Xu Yingying was the first to speak. "Honey, are you sure this is for us?"
Li Yifei rubbed his nose and replied, "Of course. This tub contains expensive dicinal herbs, and every single one is essential. That’s why the water looks like this."
Ning Xin’er grimaced and said, "It’s so black... soaking in this stuff won’t turn our skin dark, will it?"
Everyone imdiately turned their eyes to Li Yifei. To these won, their fair skin was paramount. If they were to turn into "African beauties," no matter how much benefit ca from it, they absolutely wouldn’t agree.
"Definitely not," Li Yifei assured them. "While the dicine has color, there’s no actual pignt in it—all of it is pure energy." Having tested the concoction earlier and consulted Murong Yuanqing for confirmation, Li Yifei spoke confidently.
But even so, everyone still shook their heads in doubt—except one person.
"I’ll try it first," Su Yiyi bit her lip and announced.
"Yiyi!" Everyone turned to her in surprise.
Su Yiyi nodded and spoke determinedly, "Yes, I want to try. Our husband would never harm us. I don’t want to always rely on others for protection whenever we go out—it feels so stifling. I want to beco stronger so that if anyone targets us, our husband won’t have to worry about our safety constantly."
The usually timid Su Yiyi displayed the most courage among them, leaving everyone else feeling slightly ashad. Lin Qiong imdiately volunteered, "I’ll go first instead. My skin isn’t as pale anyway, so even if it darkens a bit, it’s no big deal. Yiyi, your complexion is so fair—it’d be a sha if it changed. You all don’t need to fight
for this spot; I’m the most suitable because I have so martial arts background. Let’s just leave it to ."
Li Yifei quickly chid in, "Alright, Qiongqiong will try first. Everyone else can watch and feel assured."
Seeing Li Yifei agree, Su Yiyi backed down, and the group accepted Lin Qiong’s decision.
After everyone left the room, only Li Yifei and Lin Qiong remained in the bathroom. Over the past few days, Li Yifei had taught everyone the rapid cultivation thod for True Qi. It wasn’t particularly difficult, so they all knew how it worked.
Lin Qiong approached the tub, staring at the dark, dicinal bath with furrowed brows. She turned and glared at Li Yifei, warning, "If you dare deceive , I’ll make sure you regret it!"
Li Yifei laughed heartily and replied, "Would I ever lie to my wife? Co on, give it a try. I promise you’ll beco a martial arts expert in no ti."
Lin Qiong finally stepped into the tub, letting the dark liquid envelop her entire body.
Li Yifei also joined her in the bath, which eased Lin Qiong’s worries. If Li Yifei was willing to be in the tub with her, it ant that problems were unlikely.
He placed his hands against hers, transferring True Qi into her body. Since Lin Qiong had no True Qi of her own, she needed Li Yifei’s guidance to absorb the dicinal power.
Li Yifei quickly felt the dicinal bath’s energy slowly perating Lin Qiong’s pores. With the aid of his True Qi, the energy gradually transford into faint threads of True Qi. Though weak, it successfully rged with Lin Qiong’s ridians—in contrast to his own True Qi, which, even when injected into her body, couldn’t stay inside.
This elated Li Yifei. Lin Qiong and the others had finally taken the first step. As long as they could sense the presence of True Qi within themselves, they could use the rapid cultivation thod to circulate it properly, eventually mastering the intricacies of Dual Cultivation.
After two hours, the bathwater had turned even darker and lost its dicinal potency. Only then did Li Yifei stop.
During those two hours, Lin Qiong felt sothing unique growing inside her—it was no other than the True Qi Li Yifei ntioned. Thrilled, she exclaid, "Does this an I’ve succeeded?"
Li Yifei smiled faintly and said, "Of course. But this is just the first step. To truly master it, you’ll need at least five more baths."
"Only five?"
"You think that’s few?" Li Yifei rolled his eyes and said, "Do you know how much one tub costs? At least a hundred thousand, and once it’s used, it’s done."
"Only a hundred thousand? Even five more baths plus this one—that’s just six hundred thousand! No big deal."
"I’ll deduct it from your allowance."
"Dare you try!" Lin Qiong glared at him before stepping out of the tub to check herself in the mirror. Seeing that her skin hadn’t darkened, she finally felt at ease.
Li Yifei knew this thod was effective, but it required substantial ti and cost. For most people, it would be out of reach. And even if soone managed to cultivate a small amount of True Qi, persistence was necessary—without it, the effort would be wasted. For now, the plan was to help Lin Qiong establish her True Qi foundation. The ultimate goal was to experint with Dual Cultivation, which was sothing to truly look forward to if successful.
Over the next few days, Li Yifei helped Lin Qiong cultivate True Qi every evening. After six days, Lin Qiong was finally able to sustain her True Qi.
While it wasn’t incredibly strong, she could circulate it herself and use it according to the principles of Dual Cultivation.
Li Yifei had a sudden thought—if Lin Qiong used this thod, she could absorb his True Qi much like the nuns on Hua Mountain did. This would significantly strengthen her, though at a slower pace.
With everything prepared, Li Yifei and Lin Qiong began their first Dual Cultivation session that evening. He even brought Jiang Ningxiang to assist, believing her presence would increase their chances of success.
This mont wasn’t just exciting for Lin Qiong and Li Yifei—it had everyone in the house on edge. They knew from Jiang Ningxiang that the nuns practicing Dual Cultivation on Hua Mountain looked youthful even at fifty or sixty years old, which made the prospect irresistible. Though these won were all stunning beauties now, the fear of aging lood large over them. If they could preserve their youth, it would be a dream co true.
The Dual Cultivation session began. Jiang Ningxiang first guided Lin Qiong’s faint True Qi and ensured it flowed correctly. Once everything was in place, Li Yifei started the process.
But as soon as Li Yifei’s True Qi entered Lin Qiong, it completely overwheld and dissolved her weaker True Qi.
"What’s going on?" Li Yifei imdiately stopped and connected with Jiang Ningxiang ntally.
Confused, Jiang Ningxiang replied, "I don’t get it either. What happened?"
Li Yifei thought for a mont and said, "Maybe my True Qi is too powerful, and Lin Qiong’s is too weak. The disparity is just too great—her True Qi can’t handle mine."
"Then try weakening yours."
Li Yifei concentrated his True Qi into his Dantian, leaving only faint traces circulating in his ridians. Even then, his True Qi remained stronger than Lin Qiong’s.
This ti, however, his True Qi didn’t overpower hers. Instead, their energies intertwined, flowing harmoniously according to the principles of Dual Cultivation.
"It worked!" Jiang Ningxiang’s excited voice echoed in his mind.
Li Yifei nodded. "Yes, it should be fine now. Let’s see how effective it really is."
After more than an hour, Li Yifei and Lin Qiong finished their Dual Cultivation session. During the process, Lin Qiong felt her True Qi strengthen noticeably, leaving her elated. She expressed her excitent in a more... physical way, which even pulled Jiang Ningxiang into an unexpected first-ti participation.
Despite the late hour, the rest of the household remained in the living room, eager for news. After tidying up, the three of them descended the stairs.
"How did it go?" Everyone looked at them expectantly.
Li Yifei smiled faintly and replied, "The thod works, but progress won’t be imdiate. Tonight, I’ll try another session with Lin Qiong to see if we can make her True Qi even stronger."
"Oh yeah!"
"Amazing!"
"We can stay young forever!"
This was the common thought across everyone’s mind—and the excitent was beyond words.
Over the following days, Li Yifei continued Dual Cultivation sessions with Lin Qiong. In the beginning, Lin Qiong’s True Qi doubled with each session, growing exponentially. But after several attempts, the growth started to slow.
Li Yifei realized that from now on, the improvent would be gradual. Instead of devoting special ti to it, they could simply incorporate it into their nightly intimacy, no longer needing dedicated Dual Cultivation sessions.
