The warm and gentle sunlight bathed ng Qingzhou, making his body feel cozy. He could sense the spiritual energy in his ridians and dantian continuously increasing, and his cultivation level rising accordingly.
"Moon Shine Realm peak."
"Probably in half a month, I'll be able to break through to the Morning Glow Realm. By then, I can fully unleash the power of the Emperor Grade Sword Sense of Ti and Space."
ng Qingzhou silently calculated in his mind.
Creak...
The courtyard door opened, and Dongfang Liuli walked in with heavy steps, her spirit slightly fatigued. But the mont she saw ng Qingzhou, all her weariness vanished.
There was a calmness about ng Qingzhou, an unflinching composure even in the face of a collapsing mountain, and a serene temperant like a gentle breeze.
This wasn't sothing that could be faked; it was a charm that ca from deep within.
Yes, what attracted Dongfang Liuli was never the elusive title of Sage or the world-renowned strength of a Sword Saint. It was always him, the person.
"Where my heart finds peace, there is my ho," Dongfang Liuli murmured softly, her eyes unfocused.
"Hey, Lady Liuli finally decided to co back. I thought you were going to beco a heartless person who abandoned their family," ng Qingzhou said in surprise, turning towards the voice.
Dongfang Liuli rolled her eyes and said, "In front of the Space-Ti Sword Saint, how dare I call myself a lady? I often feel fortunate to be by the Sword Saint's side, yet I fear he might find too crude and abandon ."
Sarcasm, huh? Two can play at that ga.
ng Qingzhou's face stiffened, and he let out a few awkward laughs, deciding not to tease her further.
Recently, Dongfang Liuli often brought up the title of Space-Ti Sword Saint, clearly holding a grudge. It wasn't that she resented ng Qingzhou for hiding it from her; she simply couldn't reconcile the Space-Ti Sword Saint with Salted Fish ng, feeling shocked and confused.
"The Space-Ti Sword Saint is a title given by the world, it has nothing to do with ," ng Qingzhou said, suddenly rembering sothing. "By the way, didn't I grant you an Emperor Grade constitution a while ago? Let teach you how to cultivate."
Dongfang Liuli's heart skipped a beat, her phoenix eyes narrowing. "Grant?"
"What do you an?"
Back then, ng Qingzhou had said a white-bearded old man gave him a miraculous spiritual pill that changed her constitution.
Now, thinking back, it was likely a fortuitous encounter ng Qingzhou had during his travels, where he received the inheritance of an ancient True Phoenix.
But now, Dongfang Liuli was beginning to doubt this hypothesis.
Grant...
Who could grant soone an Emperor Grade constitution or a True Phoenix inheritance?!
"Ahem, I misspoke. It was a white-bearded old man who gave a miraculous spiritual pill that changed your constitution," ng Qingzhou said, pretending to be calm while feeling a sense of foreboding.
A hint of contemplation flashed in Dongfang Liuli's eyes.
Misspoke?
No, this was likely the truth!
At that mont, Dongfang Liuli, who thought she had seen through all of ng Qingzhou's secrets, suddenly found him even more mysterious.
It was like thinking a forest was only so big, but as you ventured deeper, discovering an endless mountain range beyond.
"Alright, then teach how to cultivate," Dongfang Liuli said with a smile.
No matter how many secrets ng Qingzhou hid, he always remained a salted fish who didn't want to stir up trouble.
And that was enough.
'After all, I have my own secrets too.'
With this thought, Dongfang Liuli felt no more hesitation. Instead, she found the mysterious salted fish even more charming.
ng Qingzhou smiled calmly, taking Dongfang Liuli's soft hand and leading her into the room.
"Let's go. First, I'll teach you how to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Second, how to draw it into your body. These two steps are crucial and require concentration, so we need a quiet, undisturbed environnt. Once you're proficient, it won't be necessary," ng Qingzhou explained patiently.
Dongfang Liuli nodded obediently, then suddenly stopped and said, "Qingzhou, I think I can sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."
"Really? So quickly?" ng Qingzhou said in surprise.
Dongfang Liuli covered her mouth and smiled, then slowly began absorbing the spiritual energy. Knowing that ng Qingzhou's divine sense might be injured and unable to sense it, she deliberately let the spiritual energy linger on his palm before drawing it into her body through their interlocked fingers.
"Hey, Qingzhou, I... I think I've drawn the energy into my body!" Dongfang Liuli said with a tearful voice, sounding panicked. "Is there sothing wrong with my body? How could it be so fast?"
Three question marks appeared on ng Qingzhou's forehead, and he remained silent for a long ti.
Hmm, how should I put this...
Could it be that my wife is a martial arts prodigy?
Even with an Emperor Grade constitution, without any prior cultivation experience, one should still need to build a foundation and progress gradually.
Even an overpowered protagonist with a Heavenly Fortune Body needed to prepare for the first ti sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, using an introductory thod from the "Supre Sensing Chapter" and auxiliary spiritual treasures, taking over ten minutes to vaguely sense the spiritual energy.
It took three days to barely draw the energy into the body, and even then, only a few dozen strands of spiritual energy at a ti...
What's going on with Dongfang Liuli?!
This is too monstrous.
"Wife, I've suddenly realized sothing," ng Qingzhou said seriously.
Dongfang Liuli's heart blossod with joy, but she pretended to be an innocent and clueless wife, her star-like eyes blinking with feigned curiosity. "What is it?"
Then, she added in a flustered tone, "Is there really sothing wrong with my body? I haven't given you a child yet; I don't want to die so soon."
"Ugh, ugh, ugh..."
Three black lines appeared on ng Qingzhou's forehead, and he unceremoniously flicked her on the forehead.
"Stop talking nonsense and spit it out."
Dongfang Liuli covered her head, pouting and sticking out her tongue. "Ugh, ugh, ugh..."
Only then did ng Qingzhou feel satisfied, showing a look of relief and pride. "Wife, I think I've discovered a peerless genius that even the author overlooked, far surpassing Zhao Gou and the Empress!"
Dongfang Liuli quickly played along. "Who?"
"And who's the author?"
"That's not important."
"Oh, then tell , who is it?"
"Of course, it's you," ng Qingzhou said, ruffling her hair with a smile. "Compared to you, does the Empress deserve to be called an unparalleled genius? Does Zhao Gou deserve to be called an overpowered protagonist? Your talent surpasses all of history!"
Without any guidance from cultivation thods or any assistance, sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and drawing it into the body in just one second, almost seamlessly—no historical hero could achieve this.
Seeing ng Qingzhou's smug and proud expression, Dongfang Liuli couldn't help but laugh, her smile outshining all flowers and dimming all else.
Nearby, Su Qingqiu, who was quietly eating sunflower seeds, suddenly sighed deeply:
'Your Majesty has ultimately beco what she once hated the most—a girl who likes to act cute and coquettish.'
'Sigh, Qingqiu also wants to act cute to the Empress' Husband, but what if Your Majesty kills ...'
'Very urgent, seeking advice.'
