Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

Yin Qinghe was actually just Zhao Mengli’s nanny.

Ever since she joined Danxin Herb Hall, she has been living in this room with Zhao Mengli, taking care of Zhao Mengli’s daily needs.

That’s why the two of them have such a close relationship.

Lying in the bath barrel, Yin Qinghe could clearly feel that the tearing pain in her body had completely faded away.

If not, she wouldn’t have been able to gain four strands of heat energy in a single trial.

Qin Yu is truly terrifying.

The moment he suppressed her, it really felt like her whole body was being ripped apart.

But then, somehow, she actually kind of enjoyed it.

Now the beautiful master’s wife finally understood why Zhao Mengli fussed so late into the night on her wedding day.

She originally thought it was Qin Yu’s lack of tenderness for women.

Who knew, after a whole night’s commotion, Zhao Mengli could still hop around the next day like nothing had happened.

Back then, she felt surprised, so she dragged Zhao Mengli over to ask about it.

As for the bizarre things Zhao Mengli said then, initially Yin Qinghe suspected Qin Yu had put her up to tricking herself.

Turns out, such magical things actually did exist.

Now she understood even better why Lin Qianqian, and even Zhao Mengli who’d originally been focused only on Alchemy Dao, both became so...

Proactive about it.

You could even say they were obsessed.

Because she herself was quite...

If Zhao Mengli hadn’t woken up, chances are it still wouldn’t be over now.

But!

At first, she just thought it would be a one-time thing, but once it started, she couldn’t stop.

Recalling the scene just now, Yin Qinghe couldn’t help biting her lips until they went pale; even then her toes pressed together tightly.

It’s just too...

Shameful!

No way!

Absolutely cannot go on like this.

Qin Yu is Li’Er’s husband; she...absolutely can’t keep doing things that would hurt Li’Er!

The hazy gaze gradually turned resolute.

But she didn’t realize her brows furrowed a little as she made up her mind.

After the bath.

Yin Qinghe lay in bed, hugging the quilt, unable to fall asleep no matter how she tried.

...

Qin Yu came in from outside, and first to greet him was Lin Shuishui.

"Brother-in-law!"

The little girl habitually hung herself around his neck, with big sparkling eyes, and pouted, her voice soft and teasing, "Stinky brother-in-law, always leaving Shuishui alone in the room, hmph!"

Qin Yu didn’t bother explaining, just spoiled her by pinching her soft, pale little cheek.

Next, naturally, was Zhao Mengli.

She dove into Qin Yu’s arms, and quickly noticed something odd, "Junior Brother, why are your clothes torn?"

With a tug—

She saw Qin Yu didn’t even have any underclothes on, and her eyes instantly went wide, softly crying out, "Junior Brother, what did you go do?"

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, buried herself in Qin Yu’s chest, wrinkled her nose and sniffed, and at once, her eyes opened even wider, "That’s the scent of Master’s Wife!"

She’d slept with that scent for more than ten years, so of course she knew it well.

No mistake!

Could it be...

Maybe to confirm something, Zhao Mengli did the legendary blind-blind-摸象 move.

"Junior Brother, you..."

Qin Yu acknowledged it.

No point in hiding such things from Zhao Mengli; she’d been wanting to drag Master’s Wife in to share the burden for ages anyway.

"I’ll go find Master’s Wife!"

Little senior sister was excited, apparently quite happy to suffer together with Master’s Wife.

[Zhao Mengli Romantic Point: 80 (Heartfelt)]

A flame flashed before Qin Yu’s eyes—he saw her Romantic Point increase.

Clearly, little senior sister really cared about Master’s Wife.

But, Qin Yu still pulled her back, "Wait."

Right now, the beautiful Master’s Wife was still a bit shy; just earlier, hearing even a bit of noise from the wing rooms, she panicked and chased him out.

Can’t push her too quickly.

"Give her some time..."

"Oh."

Zhao Mengli finally let him persuade her. Yet suddenly, she lifted her head from his arms, her eyes watery and bright, "Junior Brother, I...want to upgrade my Root Bone."

"..."

Qin Yu gave her a look—Lin Shuishui was right there, "Don’t be a bad influence on kids!"

"I’m not a kid anymore!"

Lin Shuishui pouted, puffing up in annoyance, as though she’d pounce and take a bite.

After a bit of fussing—

The four of them started cultivation.

Qin Yu closed his eyes, his senses focusing on the flame.

His Flame Point and Realm hadn’t climbed much.

He mainly focused on his Lifebound Divine Technique and Lifebound Divine Sword.

[Lifebound Divine Technique: Initial Glimpse (1/10)]

[Lifebound Divine Sword: Mortal Weapon (1/10)]

"Huh?!"

He’d just gotten Master’s Wife’s Emotion Point a bunch of times, so why hadn’t anything changed?!

"Is it different from the Pure Yang Divine Body?"

Qin Yu felt confused.

But quickly thought of Master’s Wife’s unique Sacred Body, and his heart skipped a beat.

No way?!

Is it that only a special Sacred Body can upgrade Lifebound Divine Technique and Lifebound Divine Sword?

Where would he even find one?!

He had no clue.

He wasn’t familiar with such Sacred Bodies at all—even if he was, it wasn’t like one could tell from the outside.

He’d lived with Master’s Wife for quite some time, and only barely noticed a thing the day he massaged her feet in the Alchemy Room.

How can he upgrade?

Qin Yu fell into some serious frustration.

The power of the Pure Yang Divine Body, he already fully appreciated; the Divine Technique and Divine Sword were obviously no weaker than the Divine Body.

And with just an initial glimpse, he’d already comprehended Sword Intent.

And even in the Hundred Sword Sect, only some Elder Level people had comprehended Sword Intent.

Those are Foundation Establishment peak Great Cultivators!

Rumor has it, the First Fairy of Yunlan Domain made her name at thirteen by comprehending Sword Intent.

And how long did Qin Yu take?

What a pity.

The benefits of the Lifebound Divine Sword, Qin Yu could feel clearly—it was like an extension of his arm—just a shame it was still only Mortal Weapon.

Granted, Mortal Weapons are actually already deadly.

Even Hundred Sword Sect Elders only used Top Grade Mortal Weapons back then.

Yet, having never owned a Mortal Weapon before, Qin Yu was unsure what tier the Lifebound Divine Sword was at.

Such a shame.

Soon, Qin Yu adjusted his mindset.

Let things take their course.

After all, now that he had the Pure Yang Divine Body and could upgrade his Root Bone, he was already very content.

The time spent in cultivation always passed quickly, and before he knew it, night was approaching.

In the courtyard—

The delicious food was served up.

Zhao Mengli went to call the beautiful Master’s Wife, but she didn’t open the door, only saying she hadn’t been resting well lately.

Though she was in bed—

She could sense all the commotion out in the yard.

Watching Zhao Mengli cling to Qin Yu, looking so intimate, made her heart even messier, and made her want to keep hiding away.

As night fell—

Before long, the sounds from the wing rooms drifted into the main house again.

Having now tasted that pleasure, Yin Qinghe found it even harder to bear; even clutching her quilt tighter brought no relief at all.

"Damn it!"

She kept feeling that that rebellious disciple was doing it on purpose.
