He had thought Yuan Shu would be angry, that she might very well send him flying with a strike.
But he also thought, what if...
He succeeded?
Yuan Shu was currently, evidently, a person who did as she pleased.
So, would adding one more person be acceptable to her?
Her legs were as captivating as her face.
Straight and slender.
...
The most basic requirement for cultivating the Yin-Yang Union Art was that once the body reacted, it could not be suppressed; it could only be released.
Otherwise, it would affect future cultivation.
Yuan Shu originally intended to rely on the medicinal effects of a medicated bath to channel the urges in her body.
But she never expected someone would react a step ahead of her, and in a way she never anticipated!
Shen Qi had already run off, and the person who just entered the room was Yun Sheng.
So it was self-evident who this person was!
Yuan Shu did not refuse.
Although Yun Sheng's strength was lacking, he was very handsome and pleasing to the eye!
Most importantly, so far, this man was completely sincere towards her!
However, the moment he took off his clothes, she still raised a hand to stop him.
"Yun Sheng, my men must have exceptional aptitude and be stronger than me. Otherwise, during dual cultivation, their life essence will be drained dry, leading to death."
"The first level of Qi Condensation is far from being qualified."
Her voice was light and calm, as if merely stating a fact.
Yun Sheng's body stiffened. He glanced down, his voice hoarse and carrying a hint of grievance, "Miss Yuan?"
Yuan Shu reached out, pulled down the handkerchief over her face, and sat up, leaning back lazily.
A delicate white foot stretched out, gently lifting his chin.
"Messing around will get you killed. Be good, use this."
Saying so, Yuan Shu took out a jade object from the Divine Tree Space and handed it to him.
Seeing clearly what that thing was, Yun Sheng's eyes widened slightly.
Yuan Shu had already lazily lain back down, looking at him with eyes as alluring as silk.
Yun Sheng's Adam's apple bobbed. The hand holding the jade artifact tightened slightly. After only a moment's hesitation, he knelt and moved forward.
...
Two hours later.
A fully dressed Yun Sheng carried a limp and soft Yuan Shu into the adjacent washroom.
He meticulously cleaned the marks off her body first, before placing her into the bathing barrel.
The emerald-green medicinal liquid covered her fair skin, slowly nourishing her body.
Yun Sheng then massaged her according to the techniques of the Yunji Acupoint Lubrication Method.
It wasn't until the water turned slightly cool that Yuan Shu stretched her body, standing up to get dressed under his attentive service.
Seeing Yun Sheng lower his eyes, his lips pressed together in silence as he dressed her, Yuan Shu smiled and reached out to gently lift his chin.
"Are you angry?"
Yun Sheng quickly shook his head, "I wouldn't dare."
"Wouldn't dare? So you really are angry?"
Yuan Shu took the cloak he draped over her.
Yun Sheng pressed his lips together and said nothing.
Speaking of being angry, he hated his own uselessness more!
If, if he had Shu Linyuan's talent, if he had Shen Qi's strength, Yuan Shu wouldn't have refused him!
She even took out such a plaything to replace him!
Yuan Shu took a medicinal pill from the Divine Tree Space and brought it to his lips.
"Open your mouth."
Yun Sheng pressed his lips together, lowered his eyes, and uncharacteristically disobeyed.
Yuan Shu shook her head, "You were the one begging me to let you stay back then. It hasn't been that long, and you're already disobeying?"
"Miss Yuan, I... I just... I just feel that my aptitude is too dull. No matter how many pills I take, it won't change anything."
"It will only waste the medicinal efficacy of these pills."
As Yun Sheng spoke, he slowly lowered his head.
He didn't want Yuan Shu to look down on him either, but the facts were right there.
Having four spirit roots was only one spirit root away from being an ordinary mortal.
He had been taking the pills Yuan Shu gave him for the past two days, but there was no effect.
The blocked meridians in his body remained blocked, and his stagnant strength remained as low as ever.
He really was useless!
Yuan Shu raised an eyebrow, looking down at the insecure, unwilling, yet deeply pained man before her, her eyes lowering slightly.
"Whose life is smooth sailing from birth? Extraordinary talents have their own troubles, and poor talents have their own difficulties."
"As long as you work hard and make sure tomorrow's you is better than today's you, that's enough. Worrying so much will make you go bald!"
She chuckled lightly, popped the pill into her own mouth, and suddenly reached out, hooking an arm around Yun Sheng's neck and pulling him down.
Then she tilted her head up and kissed his lips.
The sudden kiss made Yun Sheng freeze completely, until Yuan Shu's tongue moved slightly, gently prying open his lips and teeth.
Yun Sheng instinctively swallowed, parting his lips slightly, and the melted pill mixed with a fresh pear blossom scent was passed over.
Miss Yuan... Yuan Shu was kissing him?
Yun Sheng's heart pounded wildly.
Almost instantly, he reflexively wrapped his arms around Yuan Shu's waist.
He obediently opened his mouth and swallowed all the medicinal liquid Yuan Shu pushed over.
Seeing him so obedient, Yuan Shu smiled, tangling her tongue with his for two rounds like a reward before preparing to pull away.
However, the hands on her waist tightened slightly, holding her in place and preventing her from leaving.
The lips that had just retreated a little were captured by Yun Sheng once again.
His green and innocent kissing technique lacked skill, but he just wanted to consume more of her scent.
The result was...
Pain.
Seeing that this guy still refused to let go, Yuan Shu bit him.
The next moment, Yun Sheng released her mouth looking incredibly wronged, staring at her unblinking.
He looked exactly like an abandoned little wife.
Yuan Shu reached out and pinched his thin, handsome cheek. "You don't know how to kiss but you use so much force. Are you trying to bite me to pieces and eat me?"
"I'm sorry," Yun Sheng's eyes trembled slightly.
He knew his technique was bad.
It was just that it was so rare for Yuan Shu to take the initiative to kiss him, and he didn't want to let this opportunity slip away.
Even now, being glared at by her, he didn't want to let go of her waist!
Heaven knew how jealous he had been these past few days, watching helplessly as Shen Qi ran into her room.
His face wasn't inferior to those men, so why could they gain Yuan Shu's special regard?
While he could only stand silently outside the door and wait?
Obviously, Yuan Shu also liked his face!
Yun Sheng's face was as beautiful as flawless jade.
Complemented by his naturally slightly reddened eyes, he looked handsome and docile, making people uncontrollably birth a desire to bully him.
Just now when he took off his clothes, the revealed physique was a bit skinny and dry, but his capital was very abundant!
It was indeed a bit of a pity.
It was just that right now she was at the critical juncture of establishing the foundation of the Divine Tree Elemental Spirit Root, and she couldn't mess around.
Furthermore, she still preferred men with a bit of meat on their bones.
A soft, delicate little hand gently caressed Yun Sheng's chest.
Yun Sheng's expression visibly tightened.
Following the slow caress of her palm, a trembling low sound seemed to spill from between his slightly parted lips.
"Yun Sheng, if you don't know how, I can teach you. However, I really dislike this rack of ribs of yours. If you want more, you have to work harder."
Yuan Shu stood on her tiptoes, leaning close to Yun Sheng's ear to whisper. Then she tilted her head up and actively kissed his lips once more.
Yun Sheng's eyes widened slightly. He obediently lowered his head and followed Yuan Shu, gradually deepening this kiss.
