Chapter 49 Breakthrough (Part 2) Dare to Hit Her? ...
(Forty-nine)
All night long, until dawn.
Her snow-white arm, covered with red marks, stretched out from under the soft quilt and picked up the water glass from the small table beside the bed with some difficulty.
The cool tea flowed down my throat, finally relieving my dry mouth.
Li Shanglu's hair was scattered, and a reluctant hand was still resting on his thin waist.
Her eyelids twitched and she slapped the hand, which the other party obediently took back.
What secret method of breaking dual cultivation? Why didn’t she feel any changes in herself? Apart from sweating all over and taking two or three showers, she seemed to be no different from before. Where did the marrow cleansing and bone strengthening go?
Li Shanglu rubbed his head, stretched out his hand, and tried to condense a little spiritual energy like Shen Changyi.
After a while, my palms were empty.
"It will take several attempts to completely cleanse the marrow."
Someone's soft voice came from behind him, and Li Shanglu's face suddenly turned red, and he quickly withdrew his hand.
Try a few more times. You tried it so many times last night?
Cultivation is really troublesome.
It was obviously very easy for Shen Changyi to practice at the beginning. She remembered that when she saw Shen Changyi stand up on his own without crutches for the first time, she thought she was dreaming.
Shen Changyi ran towards her and ran around the yard several times like a fool. Finally, he stopped in front of her, panting, and spread out his palms.
"Shanglu, look."
He shyly showed her the spiritual energy he had condensed. It was like a flame, pulsing and flickering, scorching and burning. It was this thing that had enabled Shen Changyi to run and leap. Li Shanglu curiously reached out to touch it, but only encountered nothing.
That was the spiritual energy that belonged only to Shen Changyi, the purest and most genuine spiritual energy that even Xie Du, Qiu Hanyu and the others did not possess.
Li Shanglu put his hands back into his sleeves, crossed his arms and looked at him, saying disdainfully, "What's the use of this? Can you eat or drink it?"
Chen Changyi was speechless for a while, and then seemed to feel that this was not a big deal, and went home in despair.
However, as soon as he left, Li Shanglu began to angrily question Li Hanye, asking why Shen Changyi's palms could catch fire but she couldn't.
Li Hanye stared at his silly girl in a daze. After a while, he patted her little head and said, "But your eyes can spit fire. They're spitting fire right now. Are you going to eat daddy?"
"I want to eat Shen Changyi!"
Li Shanglu was not convinced. She tried secretly for a long time without giving up, but of course she failed. Not to mention the purest and most authentic spiritual energy, she couldn't even condense spiritual energy with impurities.
She actually knew that it was remarkable, so remarkable that she would never be able to be like Shen Changyi in her entire life.
Retracting his thoughts, Li Shanglu looked at Shen Changyi, who was pinching the corner of the quilt on the soft couch and looking a little shy.
No matter, she had the chance to do it now.
What pure and genuine spiritual energy, oh, it will all be hers from now on.
For the next three days, the couple practiced the complete set of dual cultivation secrets.
Apart from eating, drinking water and coaxing the children, I hardly did anything else.
Li Shanglu's physical strength was really no match for Shen Changyi. He was so tired that he couldn't even get out of bed. But that bastard was still asking questions as if nothing had happened, holding that tattered book.
"That posture just now didn't seem right. How about trying it again later?"
"Shanglu, lower your waist a little...can you?"
"What's wrong? Just hold on a little longer. You should be able to succeed soon. Keep working hard."
She can't do it anymore.
If she continues like this she will be eaten alive.
After Chen Changyi got into the mood, he completely ignored her life and death, like a madman. In the past, he would stop when she asked him to, but now, for the sake of so-called "cultivation", he didn't even pretend, and kept asking her if she didn't like it.
It’s not that she doesn’t like it, it’s just... no matter how much she likes it, there should be a limit. She is not a fool like Shen Changyi who can eat three dishes for a lifetime and never get tired of them.
While he was coaxing the child, Li Shanglu put on his clothes and secretly went out.
She wrapped herself tightly. It was already spring, and the young disciples on the road gave her confused looks when they saw her.
Look at her shit, what can she do? There is not a single part of her body that can be seen by others.
When he arrived at Danfeng, Li Shanglu did not see Elder Teng, but unexpectedly met Xie Du.
He went somewhere to exorcise demons and came back with himself covered in injuries.
"Master's Wife?" Xie Du greeted her by raising three fingers that were still able to move. "Long time no see. How have you been lately?"
Li Shanglu's mouth twitched slightly, and he pointed at his thigh, "You'd better take care of yourself first, the blood is starting to spurt out."
Xie Du casually picked up the hemostatic powder and applied it to his leg, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, you won't die."
After Shen Changyi stopped eliminating the demon, the original tasks were now done by him and several other disciples.
There are still many powerful demon cultivators causing chaos in various places. As long as they are still disciples of the Mingzhou Sect, they must continue to eliminate demons.
Seeing that he seemed to be really lucky, Li Shanglu simply stopped chatting with him. He turned around and was about to leave when he heard Xie Du speak hesitantly.
"Master's wife, I have a favor to ask of you."
Hearing this, Li Shanglu stopped and said calmly, "If you want Shen Changyi to go out and eliminate the demon, go and talk to him yourself."
Xie Du shook his head and said softly, "Master said he would never leave the sect again. We have absolutely no objection to this matter. I just want to ask... Can Master help teach a few young disciples?"
Hearing this, Li Shanglu's expression softened. "Isn't it hard enough to teach you one?"
Xie Du coughed dryly and said softly, "It's not that troublesome. I just want to let those disciples listen in while Master teaches me. Is that okay?"
In this way, even if the master does not eliminate the demon, no one will dare to gossip.
Li Shanglu was thinking that this way, Shen Changyi wouldn't have to pester her all day. After thinking for a moment, she wondered, "Why didn't you tell your master?"
Xie Du looked away and said softly, "Master still has to report to you in the end..."
He had already figured it out. If he wanted to ask the Master for something, he could just ask the Master's Wife. Once the Master's Wife agreed, the Master would definitely agree as well, and vice versa. If the Master's Wife disagreed, it would be useless to ask anyone else.
Li Shanglu was very satisfied that he had finally distinguished between the big and small kings. He whispered, "It can't be taught in vain. Do you understand what I mean?"
Hearing this, Xie Du immediately understood that the matter was settled and said happily, "Of course."
Having the Sword Immortal personally teach the sect's disciples is a great blessing for the disciples of Mingzhou Sect, and it is also a blessing for the people of the world. They didn't dare to mention this matter before, because they were worried that it would cause trouble for Shen Changyi. Now that Shen Changyi has retired from the sect, they dared to ask, and they didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
"Thank you, Master's wife."
Xie Du looked at Li Shanglu's leaving figure and whispered.
"He's actually a very easy-going person..."
Li Shanglu is not easy to talk to, but money is easy to talk to her.
She had no reason to refuse as she could earn money and get rid of Shen Changyi.
As usual, I visited Elder Teng. He has recovered well and can even get out of bed on his own. Although his movements look shaky and weak, at least he can stand up.
Li Shanglu supported him as he walked slowly. He heard Elder Teng's confused voice, "You're wearing so many clothes in the house. Aren't you hot?"
"Leave your own business alone and go your own way."
"..." Elder Teng took two slow steps and walked to the medicine shelf, "Shanglu, take down the sandalwood box on the top shelf."
Hearing his words, Li Shanglu stood on tiptoe to take the box and handed it to him.
Elder Teng carefully opened the box and took out a pill from it. "This is the result of my life's work. Please accept it."
Li Shanglu was stunned for a moment, then pinched the small pill and asked, "What is it for?"
"This is called the Moon-Climbing Pill. Taking it will allow you to break through a realm and help you refine your Qi," Elder Teng said proudly. "I accidentally refined it when I was in my twenties. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to refine a second one since."
He could see that Li Shanglu was a little different recently. His steps were brisk and he looked energetic. That was a sign of a breakthrough, and he was just one step away from success.
Li Shanglu looked at the pill, which was round and translucent in color. He knew at a glance that it was the best of the best.
"Such a valuable thing," she mused, politely refusing, "You keep it for yourself."
"Why would I keep it? I'm already an old man." He glared at Li Shanglu. "Originally, I was planning to leave it to Lan... Well, just tell me whether you want to eat it or not. If not, I'll sell it for money."
Hearing this, Li Shanglu readily took the pill and said, "It's better to give it to me than to give it to others. Thank you, Master."
Hearing her call him "Master", Elder Teng smiled slightly, and his back straightened a lot. He said proudly, "It's not only your husband who can help you break through. I can do it too."
Li Shanglu was amused by him, and for a while, the image of Li Hanye appeared in his mind.
"It's not just marrying someone that can make Shang Lu live a good life. Your father and I can do that too."
It’s a pity that he didn’t keep his promise, bastard Li Hanye.
After returning from Danfeng, Li Shanglu sat at the table and took out the Moon Landing Pill with great care.
A lifetime of hard work.
Elder Teng likes her so much.
She picked up the pill, put it in her mouth and swallowed it with water.
After a while, a heat rose up all over her body, and her lower abdomen was so hot that she supported her hands on the table in unbearable pain.
"Phytolacca?"
Shen Changyi came out of the kitchen and saw her strange expression. He quickly stepped forward to support her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Shanglu was speechless.
Shen Changyi suddenly frowned and helped her sit down. "Calm your mind and meditate."
Li Shanglu grabbed his clothes and gritted his teeth, "Chen Changyi, I..."
"Don't talk." Shen Changyi's voice was decisive, revealing a calmness that brooked no room for questioning.
Somehow she did as he asked.
One hand gently covered her back, guiding the heat in her body along the veins and flowing to various places.
"breathe."
His voice sounded coldly.
Li Shanglu came back to her senses instantly. She had actually forgotten to breathe just now, but it seemed as if there was a force in her body that blocked her throat, making it impossible for her to breathe.
After a while, Shen Changyi leaned over and kissed her on the lips, letting in some air for her.
Li Shanglu breathed deeply as if he had been pardoned, and his body relaxed. However, just as he was catching his breath, he was slapped on the back.
She tilted her head in disbelief. The person next to her had a serious expression, his brows furrowed. He pinched her chin and told her to look straight ahead. "Continue meditating. Keep your back straight."
Li Shanglu suppressed his anger and forced himself to straighten his body, but was slapped on the shoulder again.
"Let your shoulders drop and your arms hang naturally."
She took a deep breath.
Dare you hit her?
