Chapter 391: Chapter 167 Empress’s Great Collapse! Ji Hongxiu: Your man is really useful!
A bright moon hung quietly in the night sky like a gentle jade plate, its silvery light streaming through the clouds, draping the black curtain with a layer of silver gauze.
Ji Hongxiu lazily leaned against the railing of the flying boat’s deck, lifting a wine gourd to drink heartily.
Amber-colored nectar flowed down her neck, soaking her clothes, accentuating the curve of her chest more clearly.
"Ah—"
Ji Hongxiu sighed in satisfaction.
This wine gourd was actually a Magic Artifact, of fairly high grade, named "Nine Thousand Years," implying: nine bends of sweet spring, drinkers live a thousand years.
The gourd would automatically absorb Spiritual Energy from the world, continuously generating Immortal Brew, and each sip tasted different, not only aiding in the enhancement of cultivation but also prolonging life.
However, for someone of Ji Hongxiu’s level, the effects were naturally negligible.
The reason she always had wine on her was partly to satiate her palate, but more importantly, to suppress the pain brought by the Dao Pattern.
The so-called Dao Pattern was the mark of the great Dao imprinted after touching the "Source Wall".
Normally, it posed no issue, but once it flared up, one would suffer the agony of Karmic Fire burning the Divine Soul.
The faster one advanced in stages, the more frequent the occurrence, and it had increased from once every six months to once a month now, each episode lasting about three days, making life worse than death, so Ji Hongxiu could only numb herself with alcohol.
"When drunk, it doesn’t hurt as much."
Ji Hongxiu murmured to herself, her eyes dreamy, "However, I’ve found a better way now..."
Originally, saving Chen Mo was just a casual act, after all, Ling Ningzhi’s whole heart was set on this man. She didn’t want to see her disciple sad, and worried it might affect her Dao Heart’s steadiness.
Unexpectedly, Chen Mo brought her such a big surprise!
"If I could keep him by my side, wouldn’t that entirely counteract the effect of the Dao Pattern?"
"This way, I could advance my cultivation without any worries, even surpass that barrier! Then Yu Youhan would be nothing more than a triviality before me!"
Ji Hongxiu imagined the scene of stepping on that demoness and couldn’t help but smile.
Suddenly, her smile froze.
The blood-red lines under her Daoist robe glowed with a red light, a scorching sensation surged in her Spirit Platform, black-red fire toxin filled her Purple Mansion, and the Divine Soul was unbearably painful under the burning flames.
"It’s acting up again so soon..."
Ji Hongxiu glanced at the wine gourd in her hand, hesitated, then put it away, and staggeringly headed towards the cabin.
As she reached the bedroom door, she heard peculiar sounds from inside.
"Is, is it like this?"
"That’s right, just like last time, don’t grip too tight..."
"So scary... Wait, why do I also have to..."
"Since it’s for testing the suppressing effect of the Erosion Light Hourglass, it naturally has to be comprehensive... Be good, don’t move..."
"Bad master, lighten up... No, the master is still outside... Ugh!!"
"..."
Ji Hongxiu frowned slightly. What were these two doing?
The pain from Fiery Flames Burning God made her head dizzy, and she had no time to think, just pushed the door open and walked in.
The bed was in chaos, Ling Ningzhi was clad in thin underwear, her body taut, eyes aimlessly gazing at the ceiling, her slender hands unconsciously gripping tighter...
Chen Mo also appeared quite uncomfortable.
After realizing the "Yin Yang Reverse Time Technique," he suddenly had a Spirit Chicken moment.
Just by injecting Dao Power into the Erosion Light Hourglass, anchoring oneself and using the Yin Yang dual energies to suppress Dao Power fluctuations, couldn’t one cultivate however they liked?
To ensure the rigor of the test, he used a bidirectional stimulation method to see if under extreme conditions the suppression effect could be maintained.
Turns out it really seems possible!
Although it still required focus to operate the cultivation technique, with the Erosion Light Hourglass’s support, the difficulty was undoubtedly reduced a lot...
At this moment, Chen Mo sensed something.
Turning his head, he was suddenly stunned.
Ji Hongxiu stood by the bed, her bright eyes narrowed, seemingly trying hard to endure something.
"Daoist Venerable?"
Before Chen Mo could react, he saw her reach down to untie her waist sash, the bright red Daoist robe slowly falling, revealing a pure white bellyband and a pair of straight, slender jade legs.
?!
Chen Mo stammered, "You, you are..."
Ji Hongxiu’s cheeks were flushed, she whispered softly, "You just promised me that if I needed help, you wouldn’t refuse..."
"..."
Chen Mo’s mouth twitched slightly.
But you didn’t say it was this kind of help!
I’m the Qingyun Leaderboard, not the must-eat leaderboard!
Without waiting for him to reply, Ji Hongxiu climbed onto the bed, lay beside him, her scorching hot body pressed tightly against him.
"So comfortable~"
Her vermillion lips parted slightly, letting out a soft sigh.
A cool breeze flowed into her Spirit Platform, the fire toxin scorching her Divine Soul subsiding a bit.
...
After a long while, Ling Ningzhi came back to her senses, her voluptuous chest heaving, her body still occasionally shuddered.
"Almost, almost again..."
"Almost what?" A female voice came from beside her.
"Hmm?"
She turned her head and was dumbfounded, her eyes changed from dazed to shocked.
"Master?! What are you doing here?!"
"Don’t be nervous, continue, just treat me as if I’m not here." Ji Hongxiu said with a smile.
"..."
Ling Ningzhi’s face flushed red.
She knew her master had a changeable personality, nothing afraid, but never thought it would be so outrageous!
Seeing the intimate appearance of Ji Hongxiu and Chen Mo, she felt a sourness in her heart, like knocking over a vinegar jar.
Other Daoist matters she didn’t care about, but not Mr. Chen!
