Chapter 162 Soaking in the Hot Spring
"I'm going to start now. It'll hurt a little, bear with it."
Li Ming's hand pressed tightly against Wu Xiao's back, the skin white and delicate, a cool sensation spreading through her.
"Hurry up."
Wu Xiao closed her eyes, a little nervous, her face flushed like the evening glow.
This was the first time she had taken off her clothes in front of a man.
This man even placed his hand on her skin.
Although she had seen this man many times, it was only through roof tiles, not in real life.
Li Ming was so familiar, not polite at all, not treating her like an outsider.
He made her take off her clothes on their first meeting.
If they met a second time, wouldn't they start making a baby?
Should she think about what to name the child when she got back?While lost in thought, she suddenly felt something strange happening inside her.
Something from Li Ming entered her body, swirling and rotating within her. Oh, it was his immortal spiritual power and divine consciousness colliding.
She cleared her mind, stopped thinking, and cooperated with Li Ming's actions.
She could feel Li Ming's power and divine consciousness flowing through her body; his power was warm, enveloping her.
He was carefully unblocking her meridians and acupoints.
Wu Xiao had initially thought her eight extraordinary meridians and acupoints were all fine, but with Li Ming's movements, she felt a strange, almost transparent sensation.
Suddenly, Li Ming accelerated the flow of his spiritual energy, spreading the power throughout her bloodstream and every corner of her body.
"Snap, snap, snap..."
Wu Xiao suddenly heard a crisp sound from her bones; she realized her bones were broken, and a sharp pain shot through her.
"It hurts so much... be gentle..." Wu Xiao's breathing became heavy, gritting her teeth. This was the pain of a complete transformation.
"This is how bone remodeling works. Don't talk. Don't worry, just leave your body to me."
"Mmm..."
Wu Xiao groaned heavily, two clear tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.
*Thud!* Li Ming's hand gesture changed, moving from touching Wu Xiao's hand to pointing with his index and middle fingers, then backing his hand and crossing his fingers to form a hand seal. Blue arrays appeared on her back.
After thirty-six arrays, they quickly merged into Wu Xiao's body.
Instantly, a dazzling golden lotus appeared beneath Wu Xiao's seated posture.
Divine light shone brilliantly, bursting forth like a raging fire.
In less than a moment, Wu Xiao felt as if ants were biting her from within, the pain excruciating.
She gritted her teeth and endured it, and about half an hour passed.
The pain subsided.
Looking inward, she saw a complete transformation within her body.
Her meridians, bones, and blood vessels were crystal clear, like flowing water or crystal.
It was a wondrous feeling; her mind and soul became ethereal, her body feeling as if it had merged with nature.
Her body could undergo such a transformation.
Incredible.
"This is the Immaculate Glazed Body!"
With a casual movement, thousands upon thousands of sword intents appeared outside her body. Fortunately, she controlled them; otherwise, even a floating pavilion would have been shattered by the sword intents.
She hovered in the void, slowly forming hand seals, regulating her breathing, opening her eyes, and standing up. Her clothes floated up from the ground, covering her body. She
was ethereal and otherworldly, exuding an aura of immortality.
Her entire demeanor had changed.
She casually stretched out her hand, and a sword intent erupted from her fingertip, tearing through the void and piercing the clouds.
She was five times stronger than before.
Her sea of consciousness had expanded, and her divine sense had also increased threefold.
"This is too amazing, Li Ming," Wu Xiao said. Suddenly, her face darkened because Li Ming had somehow grabbed her hand and was examining it closely.
Li Ming said seriously, "Your body temperature is finally normal."
Before, it was ice-cold, but now it was much warmer, finally like a normal person. This Immaculate Glass Body is truly wonderful, able to withstand the supreme embryo within her.
"It is indeed normal." Wu Xiao also felt that it wasn't as cold as before, and then asked, "It seems that my heartbeat hasn't changed."
"Let me listen." Li Ming pressed his face and ear against her chest again.
"Don't worry, it won't have much of an impact. This is the Supreme Sword Embryo breathing. As long as your Immaculate Glass Body is intact, your body will be unaffected."
Wu Xiao looked at her coldly and said, "Isn't it pretty soft?"
Li Ming said, "Don't make a fuss, I'm listening carefully."
"How long are you going to stick to me like that?"
"Just a little longer."
"Get off me."
Wu Xiao pushed Li Ming away.
She stepped forward
, closing in step by step, forcing him into a corner, one hand pressing against the wall, staring at him intensely.
Seeing the aggressive look in her eyes, Li Ming licked his lips and said, "What do you want?"
Wu Xiao stood on tiptoe, looking into Li Ming's eyes, just staring at him like that.
"Say something, don't stare at me like that."
"Tsk tsk." Wu Xiao's other hand held Li Ming's chin, she slowly lowered it, her face getting closer, the distance between their lips getting closer and closer.
Li Ming could hear her heartbeat and breathing accelerating, thinking she wanted to kiss him.
But the next second, Wu Xiao's forehead collided directly with Li Ming's forehead.
"Smack!"She bumped into him and ran.
Running towards Li Ming's room, she completely forgot about Green Ivy and the black dog eavesdropping outside the door, so she stepped directly on Green Ivy.
She dashed into the peach blossom grove, her heart pounding more fiercely than ever before.
She often dreamt of "wall-slamming" him, and just now she almost mistook that scene for a dream, unable to resist kissing him.
So embarrassing!
Her face flushed red.
She decided to hide in the peach blossom grove for a while and go back later that night.
...
Inside the room, Li Ming rubbed his forehead, saying, "Ouch... Has she practiced Iron Head Kung Fu?"
"Bumped into me and ran? It's not that simple."
Li Ming hurriedly came out, completely ignoring Green Ivy and the black dog lying at the door, and stepped on them again. Why
does it feel so soft under my feet?"Green Ivy, Black Dog, have you seen where Wu Xiao ran off to?"
"Hey, can you stop stepping on people?" Green Ivy had been stepped on by two people in a row; her back felt like it was about to break.
"Oh ho..." Li Ming was startled.
However, he still didn't get down. He slowly squatted down, pinched Green Luo's cheek, and said, "When did you two get under my feet?"
Green Luo said, "Stop pretending, get up quickly, your back is going to break."
"Serves you right for peeping." Li Ming rubbed Green Luo's head, grabbed her twin ponytails, and quickly the twin ponytails came loose.
"Li Ming, you messed up my hair, I'll never forgive you, quickly tie it back up for me."
"Can you two get up? Stepping on me while talking hurts so much." Black Dog was exhausted.
No one paid him any attention.
Li Ming pinched Green Luo's cheek and said, "The hair thing isn't urgent. Later, take Wu Xiao to take a bath. I just helped her clear her meridians and reshape her bones. Let her soak in the hot spring; it'll be very good for her health."
He jumped off Green Luo, picked her up, and put her on the ground, saying,"Wait for me a moment, I'll bring her back."
Li Ming scanned with his divine sense and found her location. The next second, Li Ming arrived at the peach blossom forest.
Wu Xiao sat leaning against a peach tree, head down, face flushed, not daring to look at Li Ming.
Li Ming bent down, pulled her up, and walked towards the front of the peach grove.
Petals fluttered and danced in the air.
Wu Xiao didn't resist, letting him lead her, but no one knew that a faint smile played on her lips.
Li Ming brought Wu Xiao to Green Ivy, who glared at him and said, "You're such a womanizer."
She stuck out her tongue and pulled Wu Xiao along, saying, "Sister, come with me."
...
In the hot spring.
Wu Xiao clutched her chest, shrinking into the water, only her neck and above showing, because Green Ivy was looking at her strangely.
Green Ivy's mouth opened in surprise, staring blankly at Wu Xiao for a long time before finally uttering, "Sister, how come you're so white?"
"Don't cover it, it won't stay white, your hands are too small."
"Glug glug."
Green Ivy swallowed, looking at Wu Xiao with a look of utter disbelief; her hands were almost the size of her head.
Green Ivy leaned closer and said, "Sister, can I touch it?"
"Hmph..."
Wu Xiao waved her hand, and a mist immediately rose from the surface of the hot spring, isolating Green Ivy so she couldn't see her.
Only then did she lie down in the hot spring to enjoy herself.
Just now, Li Ming had helped her transform into a flawless, glassy body, and she had sweated a lot, leaving her feeling sticky.
Now, soaking in the hot spring, she felt much better.
This hot spring was strange; it was more potent than the one at her home, like a medicinal bath, with a relaxing effect on the body and soothing the meridians.
She quickly sat cross-legged and cultivated for a while, feeling that the spiritual energy within her body had become even purer.
After about half an hour, feeling completely comfortable, she removed the barrier and saw Green Ivy asleep on a white stone.
"Wake up, Green Ivy, we should go out now," Wu Xiao said.
Green Ivy had drool at the corner of her mouth, her eyes still blurry, and looked at Wu Xiao's chest, saying, "Sister, I want a hug."
Wu Xiao ignored her, jumped out of the hot spring, and quickly draped her clothes over Green Ivy's shoulders, tying the sash neatly.
Green Ivy was quick, putting on her clothes with a single spell.
Wu Xiao looked at her, smiled, patted her head, and used magic to dry her dripping hair. He
then tried to dry his own hair, but Green Ivy grabbed his hand
and pulled him outside.
"Slow down, don't fall," Wu Xiao said, a little worried as he watched her short legs take quick strides. "Why are you running so fast?" she asked.
She pulled Wu Xiao towards Li Ming's room, saying as she ran,"Brother, sister doesn't know wind magic, you dry her hair."
"..." Wu Xiao's lips twitched; this little girl was blatantly lying.
Green Ivy kicked open Li Ming's door, pulled
Wu Xiao inside, made her sit on a chair, and then quickly ran out of the room, locking the door behind her.
"Brother, that's all I can do for you,"
Green Ivy said, hurrying off to play with the black dog.
Wu Xiao smiled faintly, two cute dimples appearing on his lips. This Green Ivy was truly precocious for her age.
Li Ming stood up and walked towards Wu Xiao.
