Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 1420 - 252: Progress Gaining Speed, Sleeping With You Tonight! (Part 2)
...
That night.
The moonlight was clear and cold, and the night was as cold as water. πππππ¬πππ·ππΏππ‘.ππΈπ
"Whewβ"
Jiang Ning opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.
The breath met the cold, turning into white mist that surged forward.
Under the moonlight, by the pool, stood a slender girl in her early twenties.
The girl was not tall, dressed lightly in a pale green long dress, revealing shoulders as thin as if carved by a knife.
On an ordinary girl, this would only seem like malnutrition affecting development.
But this girl was the current Great Xia State Preceptor, one of the top fighters of the Royal Capital.
Seeing Jiang Ningβs gaze, Su Qingying said, "Sister-in-law asked me to bring food over to remind you to eat."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning sniffed and locked his gaze on the food box Su Qingying was holding.
"Is it braised beef?" Jiang Ning smiled.
"Yes!" Su Qingying nodded: "And thereβs a plate of dumplings that I just made with sister-in-law!"
"You made them?" Jiang Ningβs eyes lit up.
"Yes!" Su Qingying nodded slightly, then said: "Sister-in-law said I need to have good cooking skills, to manage both the kitchen and the living room."
Hearing this, Jiang Ning felt both amused and flustered.
He couldnβt imagine someone with Su Qingyingβs cool demeanor going into the kitchen.
"Come, let me try the dumplings you made!" he said.
A moment later.
He sat on the ground, with the food box that Su Qingying was carrying placed in front of him.
Opening the first layer of the food box, there were neatly arranged dumplings, totaling more than thirty.
The hot water at the bottom of the food box continuously emitted steam, maintaining the warmth of the food.
Jiang Ning reached out to pick up a dumpling and tossed it directly into his mouth.
Su Qingying immediately looked at Jiang Ning with bright eyes, her expression full of expectation.
"Not bad! Not bad!!" Jiang Ning chewed twice, then swallowed it, giving a thumbs up to Su Qingying with repeated nods.
Upon hearing Jiang Ningβs praise, Su Qingyingβs face, which had not smiled for a long time, suddenly melted like winter dissolving, revealing a smile.
Seeing Su Qingyingβs smile, Jiang Ning couldnβt help but glance a few more times.
"You look much nicer when you smile more!"
Hearing Jiang Ningβs words, the smile on Su Qingyingβs face suddenly disappeared.
She rubbed her cheeks: "I donβt know how to smile!"
"Just like you did just now, and youβll smile!" Jiang Ning said.
Speaking, he picked up the first layer of the food box, and immediately a scent mixed with heat greeted him.
His eyes immediately brightened.
The previously not hungry stomach suddenly felt hungry.
On the second layer of the food box, there was a large bowl of braised beef noodles, the noodles hand-rolled by Liuu Wanwan herself.
The braised beef was also specially prepared by Liuu Wanwan.
On top of the noodles, three fried eggs were placed.
Now the three fried eggs had also absorbed the soup.
"Smells so good!!" Jiang Ning praised.
"You really like it, donβt you?" Su Qingying asked curiously.
"Iβve loved it ever since I was a child!" Jiang Ning smiled.
As he spoke, he picked up the large bowl of braised beef noodles.
The bowl in his hand was larger than Su Qingyingβs head in front of him, filled to the brim.
If an ordinary person, they might not even lift the bowl.
He held the big bowl in one hand and picked up a soup-soaked fried egg with chopsticks in the other and took a big bite.
His face immediately showed a satisfied expression.
Seeing Jiang Ningβs enjoyment, Su Qingyingβs eyes sparkled with curiosity.
"Try it, itβs really delicious!" Jiang Ning said to Su Qingying, holding out the remaining half of the fried egg to her.
She looked at Jiang Ning, then tilted her head and took a bite.
Her eyes couldnβt help but squint slightly.
"Taking such a small bite canβt be satisfying!" Jiang Ning said, "Open your mouth!"
Hearing this, Su Qingying opened her mouth, and Jiang Ning directly stuffed the remaining soup-soaked fried egg into her mouth.
Su Qingyingβs eyes widened instantly.
"Eating in big bites is satisfying!" Jiang Ning said.
He withdrew the chopsticks, then picked up a dumpling and tossed it into his mouth, immediately showing a satisfied expression.
At this moment, Su Qingying was also puffing out her cheeks.
As her cheeks bulged and bulged, she slowly chewed and swallowed the small half of the fried egg.
"How is it, tastes good, doesnβt it!" Jiang Ning said.
"Delicious!" Su Qingying nodded heavily.
His gaze turned to the dumplings in Jiang Ningβs bowl.
"Still want to eat dumplings?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Yes!" Su Qingying nodded emphatically.
Hearing this, Jiang Ning picked up a dumpling, intending to feed it to Su Qingying.
"Sir, bite off half, my mouth is too small!" Su Qingying whispered.
Jiang Ning shook his head, smiling helplessly, "You sure have a lot of requests!"
Then he bit off half a dumpling, swallowing it in a few bites, feeling it wasnβt even enough to fill the gap between his teeth.
The other half went into Su Qingyingβs mouth, which she indeed chewed for quite a while.
Then, Jiang Ning occasionally forked noodles into his mouth in large bites.
Every now and then, he tossed whole steamed dumplings into his mouth.
Sometimes he threw large chunks of braised beef into his mouth.
Eating with immense satisfaction.
Every so often, allowing Su Qingying to snatch food from his tigerβs mouth.
In just about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
A bowl of braised beef noodles larger than Su Qingyingβs face was fully sent to his stomach.
Gulpββ
Gulpββ
He then gulped down the soup left in the bowl.
Refreshing!!
Picking up the last dumpling and tossing it into his mouth, he felt satisfied looking at the annihilated food in front of him.
"Sister-in-lawβs braised beef noodles are so delicious!" Su Qingying also licked her lips.
"Tasty, right?" Jiang Ning smiled.
"Delicious, I want to learn sister-in-lawβs cooking skills, and make it for you someday, sir!" Su Qingying said earnestly, clenching her fists in front of her.
"Alright, Iβll wait for the day you learn to taste it!" Jiang Ning said casually as he watched Su Qingying begin to tidy up the lunchbox and utensils.
"Sir, I want to sleep with you tonight!" Su Qingying suddenly said after finishing cleaning up.
"Why?" Jiang Ning was taken aback.
Su Qingying touched her flat belly: "I seem to havenβt conceived yet!"
Jiang Ning: "..."
Looking at Su Qingying at that moment, he felt a bit speechless.
Immediately he opened his mouth, intending to correct Su Qingyingβs understanding, but the words got stuck in his throat and he shut his mouth.
Because suddenly he thought of Su Qingyingβs obsession with cutting away her shackles, removing divinity to achieve humanity.
He worried that once Su Qingying learned the crucial steps for a woman to conceive, she might abruptly choose to go for it forcefully.
He didnβt doubt whether Su Qingying was capable of this or not.
Because itβs Su Qingyingβs greatest obsession.
Such a situation would only make things more troublesome.
Thinking this, he promptly nodded his head, "Alright, I will come over to sleep tonight! Remember itβs cold today, prepare two quilts!"
"Okay!" Su Qingying nodded repeatedly.
After sending Su Qingying away, Jiang Ning turned to look at his panel again.
[Skill]: Spirit Platform Insight True Self Technique (small success 2137/5000)
Compared to noon, Spirit Platform Insight True Self Technique had made significant progress, nearly halfway there.
He turned off the panel, having his Heart Spirit sweep over Jiezhi Leaf.
"The Spiritual Liquid from the dragon is consumed a lot, but it should be enough to support me to move closer!" he uttered silently in his heart.
Making slight adjustments to his condition, he took out a small porcelain bottle containing Spiritual Liquid from the dragon.
Then opened the lid, taking a whiff into his nostril.
Dragon-shaped creature formed of mist soared into the air from the porcelain bottle, burrowing into his nostril.
After the recent rest, one breath and one inhale corresponded to the rhythm of Heaven and Earth, as a Second Grade Great Grandmaster, his recovery was astounding, he had already adjusted his condition.
Then, he entered the cultivation state of Spirit Platform Insight True Self Technique.
Powerful spiritual power granted him a far beyond ordinary Martial Artists fusing speed.

[...]
Time passed, his body continuously emitted a hazy spiritual light.
On the other side.
Su Qingying took a bath and tidied up her room again.
Picked up clothes previously tossed around randomly, and personally prepared two quilts.
Sitting in front of the mirror, looking at her own face, a bit shyly, she pulled out a cosmetic box prepared for a long time.
A moment later, she clumsily dabbed lipstick on herself.
Looking at the bright red lips in the mirror, she touched the corner of her mouth, recalling Jiang Ningβs words earlier, trying to twitch her lips, exposing a smile.
Then she quickly drew back.
Because she realized it was very unnatural, very fake.
