Chapter 759 - 419: How Do You Heal When Pregnant?
"Uncle Master, I’ve reached the Third-Layer of the Tanglian Technique, but no matter what, I can’t break through to the Fourth Layer. Is it because my cultivation isn’t enough, Uncle Master?"
In a small courtyard next door, Liu Xiaotang was consulting Xue Wen about a problem she encountered during cultivation. However, Xue Wen seemed distracted, so she waved her small hand in front of him.
Only then did Xue Wen come back to his senses: "What did you just say, Tang?"
Liu Xiaotang stared at him intently, suddenly asking, "Uncle Master, Master already has Uncle Qin’s child. You should let it go."
Xue Wen was stunned, his rugged face turning bright red as he angrily stood up: "Insolent! How dare you speak disrespectfully of your seniors?!"
Liu Xiaotang had a calm expression, kneeling gracefully with a crisp voice:
"I ask for your punishment, Uncle Master, but some words I must say. Master has already avenged most of Cyan Lotus Sect’s grievances. Now is the weakest time for the Three Great Sects, and Master will soon rebuild the Cyan Lotus Sect."
"If at this critical moment, matters are spoiled by personal feelings, wouldn’t it be letting down so many Cyan Lotus Sect ancestors?"
"Liu Xiaotang!" Xue Wen was furious: "How dare you lecture me?!"
As he spoke, he slapped downward, and Liu Xiaotang’s little face turned pale. She straightened her body and closed her eyes.
Xue Wen’s hand halted abruptly above her head, unable to strike down.
Liu Xiaotang opened her eyes and saw Xue Wen’s dejected expression. She grabbed Xue Wen’s wrist:
"Uncle Master, if you’re feeling bad, just hit me. Don’t worry, Tang used to get hit often in the village and never got broken."
Xue Wen looked at the clear, bright eyes of the young girl, at her tender, fair little face, and then lowered his gaze to her hand holding his.
Liu Xiaotang quickly released his hand and knelt again: "I was impolite, Uncle Master. Please forgive me."
Xue Wen sighed and helped Tang up: "Tang, you’re right. It’s my fault for having such evil thoughts about the Saintess. I’m letting down the Cyan Lotus Sect!"
Liu Xiaotang quickly said: "Uncle Master, feelings between men and women are normal. You admire Master, but you’ve never overstepped. I think Uncle Master is a true gentleman, a very good person!"
Xue Wen gave a bitter smile: "My brother is the gentleman. I’m just a rough man."
"No, Uncle Master, in my eyes, you are a man of indomitable spirit, stronger than anyone!"
Liu Xiaotang’s eyes were clear, her voice sincere and genuine. Xue Wen suddenly felt not so bad, and he raised his hand to pat her head:
"No wonder the Saintess likes you so much, Tang. You will certainly surpass me in the future!"
...
"Caihe, should we go over there and take a look?"
"Wouldn’t that be inappropriate?"
"Aren’t you curious to see how Uncle Qin heals Sister Qiu?"
"Isn’t it just dual cultivation? What’s there to see?"
"But Sister Qiu is pregnant. How can they do dual cultivation? Aren’t you curious?"
"... Maybe we should just take a quick peek?"
"All right, just one look then!"
The two little girls whispered for a long time and ultimately chose to take a risky move.
They sneakily moved to the back of the bedroom, attempting to peek inside through the window.
"Caihe, over here!"
Zhou Ling’Er found the spot under the window and waved at Xu Caihe.
Xu Caihe quickly hunched over and slipped over, looking excited: "Hurry, hurry!"
Zhou Ling’Er licked her finger and slowly reached for the window paper.
Their eyes were filled with anticipation and anxiousness, their minds flashing through various romantic scenes from storybooks.
Zhou Ling’Er’s finger finally touched the window paper.
Oh no!
A surge of spiritual power burst out, sending the two girls flying away with a scream.
With a splash, they fell into the pond behind them.
"Who goes there?!"
The commotion immediately drew the attention of Xue Wu and others, and all sorts of magical artifacts were aimed at the two splashing figures in the pond.
"Brother, don’t attack!"
"They’re our own people!"
Zhou Ling’Er and Xu Caihe hurriedly surfaced from the pond. Xue Wu saw who they were and waved the others to stop, asking curiously:
"What are you doing here?"
The two gossiping girls looked at each other:
"We, we were trying to catch fish and accidentally fell into the pond, hahaha!"
The people of Cyan Lotus Sect looked puzzled. Could Golden Core Peak cultivators really slip and fall into a pond?
Xue Wu waved his hand: "All right, disperse, everyone."
The others left, returning to guard where Ye Xiyue was in the bathing room.
Xue Wu looked at the bedroom and whispered to Zhou Ling’Er and Xu Caihe: "The Saintess has a bad temper. If she finds out, you’ll be in trouble."
"Ah? We didn’t, we didn’t!" The two girls turned pale and quickly ran off.
Xue Wu glanced at the bedroom, also showing a puzzled expression.
How exactly is Brother Qin going to heal the Saintess?
Inside the bedroom.
Blech!
"My dear, are you all right?"
"Blech~~"
Xia Qinglian, dressed in thin gauze revealing her graceful figure, was clutching her chest, retching now and then.
Qin Gengyun supported her, a faint shimmer of sweat on his forehead, his face a little flushed.
Just now, the two had completed a session of healing. Xia Qinglian successfully absorbed Qin Gengyun’s primordial qi, using the dual cultivation method of the Reversed Cultivation of Profound Ice and Fire Technique to repair her damaged meridians.
Only, this method of absorbing primordial qi was a bit uncomfortable for her, and with the influence of the child in her belly, it made her constantly retch.
Xia Qinglian retched for a while, finally feeling a little better. Annoyed and embarrassed, she tapped Qin Gengyun:
"You nasty man!"
Qin Gengyun replied helplessly: "You were the one who wanted to use this method, right?"
Xia Qinglian blushed deeply, biting her lip: "Just now... the primordial qi is used up."
Qin Gengyun quickly asked: "Have all the damaged meridians been repaired?"
Xia Qinglian rolled her eyes at him: "Haven’t you examined me? It’s not that fast, complete recovery will take at least a month."
Qin Gengyun was taken aback: "Then for the entire month, we have to continue healing like this?"
Xia Qinglian pinched him hard: "Are you happy now?!"
Qin Gengyun innocently rubbed his waist: "My dear, if you’re unwilling, we can think of other ways?"
Xia Qinglian got annoyed: "You still want to try other tricks?!"
"No, my dear, don’t misunderstand, let’s use this method!"
"Hmph!"
"My dear, should I give you some more now?"
"Hmph!"
Xia Qinglian’s eyes were filled with melancholy.
"Lucky you."
An hour later.
In the adjacent room, Liu Su opened her eyes to see a massive mountain. She was startled and quickly pushed away the Celestial Phoenix Maiden lying across her face.
"Are you trying to smother me with those?"
Beside the bed, Yun Wu’s joyful voice sounded: "Susu, you’re finally awake!"
Liu Su sat up from the bed, hair disheveled, wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth, looking confused:
"Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?"
Wei Wan replied: "Susu, you and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden went to chase the Black Phoenix and got injured. It was Zhou Ling’Er who brought you back."
Liu Su finally remembered, leaping up suddenly:
"Where’s that bastard Cheng Qingyu? I want to kill her!"
Wei Wan quickly held her back: "Ling’Er said Cheng Qingyu was taken away by the Black Phoenix. Susu, you’ve just recovered, don’t be rash."
Yun Wu also held her, explaining what had happened in West Imperial City.
Liu Su was delighted: "The Saintess has defeated the Three Great Sects? The lord knows the Saintess’s identity? They’re healing?"
"But Miss is pregnant, how’s the lord giving her treatment?"
