That feeling returned, and it seemed even stronger.
It was no longer just limited to her chest.
It brushed past her waist, climbed to her shoulders, and landed on her neck.
The Hehuan Divine Tree within her body seemed affected as well, beginning to tremble gently with its branches and leaves rustling.
Yuan Shu's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
She really wanted to slap the medicinal cauldron and teach this perverted cauldron a little lesson.
But she couldn't.
Inside its belly were the medicinal plants she had just refined, and right now was the critical moment of pill fusion!
Yuan Shu gritted her teeth fiercely to suppress the throbbing in her body, slowly pressing the refined medicinal properties together bit by bit.
Then, suppressing them with her powerful mental energy, she roasted them with the scorching temperature of the Red Lotus Purifying Fire.
Seeing the Profound Enlightenment Pill slowly taking shape, with the faint patterns of a high-tier pill appearing on it, Yuan Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
A tier-six pill was much harder to refine than a tier-five one.
And with her body occasionally sending strange sensations, it was truly a damned temptation!
Fortunately, her willpower had always been astonishing; if she ever lost her composure, it was only because she wanted to.
At this moment, she could still hold on.
The Profound Enlightenment Pill formed in the cauldron, soon overflowing with a familiar pill fragrance.
The fragrance of a tier-six pill was even richer than that of a tier-five pill, almost entirely enveloping the entire Divine Fire Space.
Yuan Shu took two sniffs and immediately felt her entire body become lighter.
This was the medicinal fragrance of a high-tier pill; if consumed, its effects would be even more astonishing!
The lid of the cauldron opened, and eight Profound Enlightenment Pills flew out, landing in the medicine box Yuan Shu had prepared.
A gratified smile appeared on Yuan Shu's face once again.
It wasn't in vain that she had endured so bitterly just now; it was still a one hundred percent success rate!
Yao Qianci saw this scene, and waves stirred in his heart again, though he quickly accepted the fact.
Since the previous two batches of tier-five pills had a hundred percent success rate, it didn't seem so strange that this batch of tier-six pills also succeeded perfectly.
He had to admit that Yuan Shu's strength in alchemy truly made her worthy of the title of Guest Elder of Medicine Cloud Peak!
Back then, he had truly picked up a treasure!
With these three batches of pills completed, the missing details of these three ancient remnant recipes could all be fully supplemented.
When the time came, Medicine Cloud Peak would also benefit.
In a good mood, Yuan Shu stored the pills back into the Divine Tree Space.
She glanced at the Crimson Sun Fire on her ankle and casually released a wisp of Red Lotus Purifying Fire, letting the two of them play happily to the side.
Afterward, Yuan Shu walked up to the medicinal cauldron, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked the cauldron up and down.
Yao Qianci's heart suddenly leaped into his throat.
With that expression, did Yuan Shu discover something?
No, impossible.
This was his natal medicinal cauldron, and his divine sense was hidden within it. No matter how resourceful Yuan Shu was, she couldn't possibly detect anything unusual.
Perhaps... she was just curious?
Yao Qianci's heart hung high, his eyes falling on Yuan Shu's shockingly exaggerated figure, his Adam's apple bobbing uncontrollably.
Knowing that today's encounter would probably end here, he felt a bit of regret in his heart.
But thinking that Yuan Shu would be staying at Medicine Cloud Peak from now on, and there was no uncrossable chasm between them, Yao Qianci breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Perhaps, he could pursue her openly and honestly.
The age difference wasn't a problem.
It wasn't shameful!
Just as he made up his mind, Yuan Shu had already walked up to the cauldron and smacked it heavily with her hand.
"Were you the one kissing me just now?"
Her soft and tender voice spoke casually, but it instantly made Yao Qianci freeze completely.
She found out?
"As a medicinal cauldron, you don't cultivate properly and stay on the right path to refine pills."
"You actually developed your own spiritual intelligence, and a perverted one at that. Tell me, should I praise you or scold you?"
Yao Qianci's eyes widened slightly.
Did Yuan Shu not figure it out yet?
She thought it was the cauldron kissing her?
Yao Qianci's heart relaxed slightly, his gentle eyes curving, and a smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
His gaze fell on Yuan Shu's face.
That stunningly beautiful small face revealed a hint of indignation, her gaze looking like she was watching a naughty child, carrying a lecturing tone.
She had completely mistaken him for the cauldron's spirit?
This was fine too. Since Yuan Shu didn't recognize him, she wouldn't know that all these extremely indecent acts were done by him.
He was still that bright and noble Peak Master Yao in her heart.
After Yuan Shu finished her reprimand and found the cauldron had no reaction, she frowned slightly.
Generally, once a spiritual artifact developed a spirit, its newborn intelligence would be simple-minded. If discovered by someone, it would definitely react.
What was with this complete indifference?
Could it be... there was another secret inside this cauldron?
She originally didn't want to consume the divine power that the Hehuan Divine Tree had cultivated with great difficulty.
But right now, Yuan Shu felt it was necessary to use it.
Waking the Hehuan Divine Tree, she drew a wisp of divine power, attached it to her palm, and then placed her palm on the medicinal cauldron.
In an instant, Yao Qianci's handsome and gentle face appeared in her perception.
At this moment, he looked nervous, his thin lips flushed red, staring unblinkingly at her.
Yuan Shu's eyes widened slightly.
Yao Qianci?
It was his divine sense? He was actually hiding inside this cauldron?
Wait, the person who had been kissing her all over just now...
Could it be him?
Yuan Shu was shocked by this thought.
After all, during their previous several meetings, she and Yao Qianci had been completely innocent and had never crossed the line.
But those kisses just now had long shattered that kind of relationship.
Yuan Shu found it unbelievable. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly wanted to witness it with her own eyes.
She pretended to be casual, stepping forward again and hugging the cauldron, her entire body almost plastered against it, just like the previous few times she was fusing pills.
Yao Qianci stared at the curves that suddenly pressed close and froze slightly, his Adam's apple bobbing uncontrollably again.
After all, at this distance, as long as he wanted to, he could taste her at any time.
What was Yuan Shu doing?
The pill refinement was already over. Why, why was she still pressing against it?
As soon as the thought arose, Yao Qianci suppressed it.
Yuan Shu was the one who took the initiative to press close. It wasn't him taking advantage of her precarious situation, so sneaking a kiss wouldn't be too much, right?
Just like before, no one would find out!
Once the thought emerged, it could no longer be suppressed.
Yao Qianci slowly leaned in, carefully looking up at Yuan Shu. Seeing her eyes closed and not noticing him,
he then carefully captured her lips.
His movements were very light.
Like a teasing touch that was barely there.
Yuan Shu's tightly shut eyes fluttered, her brows furrowing slightly.
Under the perception of the Divine Tree's power, Yao Qianci's jade-like gentle eyes were half-closed, his mouth moving as he savored the taste in intoxication.
The familiar sensation instantly reminded Yuan Shu of the strange feeling during the pill fusion earlier.
It really was him!
This Yao Qianci looked so proper and serious on the surface, but deep down he was actually secretly perverted?
Previously in the bathroom, when she accidentally took a bite of him, his cheeks had turned red with embarrassment.
Yet now, relying on the fact that she couldn't discover him, he was acting so recklessly?
"Hehuan, he is over two hundred years old. Is his primal yang still intact?"
Yao Qianci was very powerful, so Yuan Shu really couldn't tell.
But soon, the Hehuan Divine Tree's answer echoed in her mind.
"It is, and furthermore, it is completely pure. He has never touched a female cultivator!"
Yuan Shu raised her brows.
So, Yao Qianci had cultivated his mind and body for over two hundred years, and she had no idea when he had developed such wicked intentions toward her?
