Chapter 215 Sacrificing One's Life to Continue
Xiaoyao Lang felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this, and raised his thumb to slide across her nose. "Silly girl! How could I do something I'm not sure of? No matter what kind of martial art it is, as long as I take a look, I know there's a way to counter it."
"No." Qiu Xia shook her head. She was only thinking about how terrifying Ling Xueyan was, and her mind was filled with fear that Xiaoyao Lang would be in danger. She couldn't listen to a word Xiaoyao Lang said. "Promise me you won't go looking for Ling Xueyan, okay? I won't hold a grudge. I'll pretend nothing happened. I just want you to stay with me, okay?" She stared at Xiaoyao Lang with an excited expression.
Seeing her like this, Xiaoyao Lang felt even more distressed and quickly comforted her, saying, "Okay! I promise you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Xia leaned into his arms again with a sense of relief, thinking to herself: Xiaoyao Lang, having you love me in this life is enough, but fate is not cooperating, I may not have much time left... Thinking of this, she pressed her head even closer, listening to Xiaoyao Lang's heartbeat and feeling the warmth of his chest. This was her last moment of tenderness, which she was content with.
Standing at the door, Yue Ruchu was dumbfounded. At fourteen, she already understood many things. Her eyes were fixed on the two of them as she thought to herself: I never imagined that this person was actually my master's lover! They were reunited after a long separation, and they were crying tears of joy. I should be happy for them, but why can't I feel happy? I feel a little empty inside... Oh dear!
She turned her head and sighed softly. She couldn't quite explain this inexplicable feeling, but it made her feel somewhat annoyed.
Xiaoyao Lang stroked Qiuxia's white hair with one hand, secretly thinking: Qiuxia's aging was caused by the absorption of her inner energy. If it were me...
Thinking of this, his eyes lit up, and he said to Yue Ruchu, "Yue Ruchu, you stand guard at the door and don't let anyone disturb us!"
His tone carried an unquestionable command, making Yue Ruchu feel very uncomfortable, but she still angrily replied, "Yes, Master." She then turned and went out, sat on the stone steps by the door, grabbed a blade of grass and started snapping it to vent her anger, not knowing where this temper of hers came from.
Seeing that Yue Ruchu was already sitting guard at the door, she said, "Qiuxia, I've been thinking about how to reunite your inner energy. Would you be willing to let me try?"
Qiu Xia stood up and refused on the spot: "No! Reuniting the inner energy requires a huge amount of energy. Besides, I was already a cultivator at the Transcendent Realm. Even if you exhaust all your power, you may not be able to succeed. At that time, not only will you have no hope of saving me, but you will also lose your life! I don't want you to do that."
Seeing Qiu Xia's resolute decision, Xiao Yaolang said in a deep voice, "You're only making decisions based on your own thoughts, but have you considered my feelings? Your body is so fragile right now. If I can't save you and watch you disappear before my eyes, how can I accept that? Do you want me to feel guilty for the rest of my life?"
“But what if…” Qiu Xia was about to argue again, but Xiao Yao Lang covered her mouth with his hand and looked at her with deep affection, saying, “You are now the most important thing in my heart. Even if I go to the Yellow Springs with you, it will be for my sake. I, Xiao Yao Lang, will have no regrets in this life!”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Xia was momentarily at a loss for words, simply gazing back at him silently, wanting to deeply remember his face. Xiao Yaolang smiled and kissed her wrinkled forehead tenderly, "Don't leave me, okay?!"
Seeing that his peach blossom eyes were already red, Qiu Xia could no longer refuse and nodded in response with an "Mmm".
Seeing Qiu Xia nod, Xiao Yao Lang carried her to the bed, and then the two of them sat cross-legged in meditation. Xiao Yao Lang circulated his inner energy, and his powerful essence poured into Qiu Xia's body through his hands. The remaining force instantly spread outwards, making the entire thatched hut rustle.
Time passed slowly, and beads of sweat appeared on Xiaoyao Lang's forehead. Because Qiuxia had previously engaged in sexual intercourse with him, her inner energy was already at a state of perfection. Now, it was gathering again, which was not something that ordinary cultivation could achieve. Even a Saint would have to expend half a lifetime of energy to do so.
Fortunately, the Xiaoyao Lang Gong body is special, and he possesses the state of divine concentration. Even if his cultivation is completely depleted, he can quickly cultivate and regain it in his dreams.
As the autumn sun rose, his emaciated limbs began to swell, the wrinkles on his face slowly disappeared and became rosy, his snow-white hair gradually turned black, and his internal energy was fully gathered.
But Xiaoyao Lang did not stop. He secretly thought to himself: "My inner energy can be forcibly absorbed by others, and it can also be forcibly replenished by others. Since this is the balance of the Dharma, Qiuxia's body can still withstand it, and my inner energy is still sufficient. Why not raise her cultivation level again?"
With her mind settled, the essence continued to flow in, filling Qiu Xia's body with vital energy. Qiu Xia felt that her inner energy had been fully gathered, but Xiao Yao Lang showed no sign of stopping, so she dared not make the slightest move, fearing that even the slightest influence would cost him his life.
A moment later, Xiaoyao Lang's hair had turned snow-white. With a loud "whoosh," a surge of powerful energy ripped through the roof of the thatched hut and soared into the sky.
Yue Ruchu turned her head and saw, "Master!" she cried out, and hurriedly got up and rushed into the room. Xiaoyao Lang stopped and calmed his breathing, his body went limp and he collapsed onto Yue Ruchu.
The autumn clouds neutralized her powerful inner energy, and the essence infused by Xiaoyao Lang directly propelled her cultivation to the Saintly level. After calming her breathing, she hurriedly turned to look at Xiaoyao Lang, only to see his head was now completely white. Her heart ached, and she cried out, "How could you be so foolish?! Why did you do this?!"
Xiaoyao Lang gave a bitter smile, weakly raising his hand to stroke Qiuxia's cheek. Qiuxia grasped his hand and placed it on her face, still sobbing. Then, Xiaoyao Lang's weak voice rang out: "Don't cry, okay?! Every tear you shed feels like a drop of blood to me, and besides, you look so ugly when you cry!"
Qiu Xia nodded, choking back tears, and forced a smile. "I won't cry! I won't cry." She then pulled Xiaoyao Lang into her arms.
Xiaoyao Lang took a deep breath. "Don't be like that. We're all safe and sound now. We should be happy!"
Qiu Xia then released him, a radiant smile on her face. Xiao Yao Lang also smiled slightly in response, "So beautiful! Give me some time, my strength will recover soon!"
Hearing his explanation, Qiu Xia asked curiously, "What martial art do you practice? Why is your internal energy improving so quickly?!"
Yue Ruchu interjected, "Because my master cultivates in a dream world, one day of his cultivation is equivalent to ten years of hard work by others!"
Qiu Xia listened in disbelief, her gaze falling on Xiao Yao Lang. Xiao Yao Lang smiled slightly, "I only discovered this when Linglong taught me meditation. She told me it was the state of divine concentration, and she had also encountered it in her dreams."
"I see!" Upon hearing the name 'Linglong' again, Qiuxia felt much relieved. She only needed to know that Xiaoyao Lang cared for her; nothing else mattered. Her gaze swept over Yue Ruchu. "Long time no see. You've even taken on a disciple!?"
Xiaoyao Lang glanced at Yue Ruchu, "Her background is similar to mine, and we share a destiny, so I decided to take her as my disciple. If it weren't for this connection with her, I probably wouldn't have met you. It's an arrangement from heaven!"
