The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife-Chapter 515: The True Dragon... How Could It Be So Short-Lived!

So this is how the yin-yang harmony of dual cultivation works!

So this is how to transfer spiritual energy to A’Li, and it’s much more effective!

But it’s still not enough...

Just then, Nanli furrowed her brows slightly. Her eyelashes trembled, and her pale lips moved a little, "It... it hurts..."

Ye Siheng froze in place.

But as Nanli gradually regained consciousness, she realized what was happening.

Even before she opened her eyes, she was already furious, wanting to strike the person on top of her dead.

"A’Li, it’s me," Ye Siheng said with a hint of helplessness as he quickly held down her hand.

"..." Nanli opened her eyes.

She saw him right above her.

Despite it being an angle of death, his face was still strikingly beautiful, enough to make anyone’s heart flutter.

And the beads of sweat on his forehead and nose added to the allure, sparking wild thoughts.

But the pain kept surging.

Nanli quickly realized that there was no need for any wild thoughts--this was clearly a real battle already!

Neither moved.

The two stayed still for a moment.

She finally spoke, "My lord, I’m seriously injured, how could you..."

Ye Siheng responded, "I’m sorry, A’Li, your Dantian was shattered, and I had no choice but to use dual cultivation to help you reconstruct it."

Nanli was stunned and then started to examine her body.

Her muscles and bones, which had already begun strengthening during her Qi Refinement stage, were now recovering, not just to their original state but even stronger after this session of intimate contact.

And her shattered Dantian was now protected by spiritual energy, waiting for her to reconstruct it through meditation!

Though happy, Nanli quickly became concerned and tried to push Ye Siheng away. "Are you crazy? Dual cultivation requires both parties to be evenly matched. You’ve given me so much spiritual energy; you’ll harm yourself!"

Ye Siheng, however, tightened his hold, refusing to leave.

His breath lingered around her.

"It’s nothing," his voice was low and husky, stirring the heart, "A’Li, I already feel guilty for not protecting you the first time. If I could, I’d carve out my Golden Core and give it to you."

Sadly, even if he did carve out his Golden Core, he wasn’t sure how to place it into her Dantian.

So, this little bit of spiritual energy was nothing.

He intended to give her more, enough to completely restore her Dantian, making it even stronger than before!

Nanli pressed her lips together.

With their bodies so close, she could clearly feel the powerful beating of his heart.

Even though she was now fully awake, her mind felt muddled, as if in a daze.

Her voice came out soft and sweet, different from usual: "But it hurts..."

There was even a hint of sulking in her tone.

No wonder Ye Siheng had been reluctant to consummate their marriage, fearing he might hurt her.

Turns out, it really was quite painful.

Ye Siheng’s heart softened. He gently touched her forehead and then explained the key techniques of dual cultivation and how to reconstruct her Dantian.

Finally, with a solemn tone, he said, "A’Li, don’t worry about me. No matter how much spiritual energy it takes, I’m willing to give it to you."

Even though his Golden Core was still deep within, it was producing an abundance of spiritual energy.

Nanli looked at him, her eyes filled with affection.

Suddenly, her face flushed, "But I... I’m not very capable. Reconstructing my Dantian could take four or five days. Will you... can you manage?"

If he couldn’t hold out and the flow of spiritual energy was cut off midway, she would lose everything and suffer an even worse injury due to the backlash of her meridians.

Ye Siheng kissed her forehead gently, "Shall we try?"

Try? Well, let’s try!

Nanli felt like a little boat, tossed by waves, rising and sinking, until a storm arrived and the boat was lifted by huge waves, then submerged again.

In such a situation, she had to remain focused, using the spiritual energy to gradually reconstruct her Dantian.

Not only was her body exhausted, but her spirit was as well.

But why did she find it all so sweet...

Inside the room, they scaled peaks and valleys, or rather, Ye Siheng tirelessly helped Nanli reconstruct her meridians and Dantian, working extremely hard...

Outside, a crowd had gathered, including Emperor Muwu himself.

It had already been four days.

The barrier remained intact.

Emperor Muwu, draped in a heavy cloak, had been standing on the steps for as long as he had been shouting.

It was useless!

It truly seemed that his ninth brother had decided to follow her in death--there had been no response at all!

His heart filled with anxiety as he turned to the people in the courtyard, "None of you can do anything?!"

Prime Minister Lu and the other officials exchanged uneasy glances, then turned their eyes toward the three Mings and Zhi Mi.

The three Mings looked pale, lowering their heads in silence.

Even if they weren’t injured, they couldn’t break through this barrier.

Zhi Mi gazed at the barrier, lost in thought, and remained silent.

"Sire!" He Qinian and Xuanyuan Che fell to their knees, crying out.

Especially Xuanyuan Che--seeing the Evil Bees tirelessly slamming into the barrier, trying to get back to Nanli, he was convinced that Nanli was truly the True Dragon of the Border Nation!

But... how could the True Dragon be so short-lived!

Chu Hanlin’s eyes were also wet.

After bringing the Chu family back, he had hoped for a reunion, but now, his daughter was in trouble.

With the barrier unbroken, no one knew if she was alive or dead.

At this moment, Chu Huan suggested, "Miss Qi, your great blade should be able to break through this formation."

"Yes!" Chu Yang raised his spear, "My Fire Cloud Spell seems effective too, and I can assist you."

Everyone had witnessed the two’s prowess at the palace gates, and their eyes brightened with hope.

Especially Emperor Muwu, who immediately stepped forward, directing them, "Yes, yes, together you should be able to break this formation!"

His ninth brother and Lady Nanli had been inside for four days--he was deeply worried.

Qi Mu gave Chu Huan a glare before turning to Emperor Muwu, saying, "Your Majesty, this barrier seems to have been created by the Ninth Princess’s talisman. My blade might not be able to break it."

"How do you know if you don’t try!" Chu Yang insisted, "We must give it a shot!"

"You’re right," Qi Mu smiled boldly, rubbing her nose, "I was making excuses, afraid of failure."

Chu Yang gripped his spear tightly, the tip gleaming sharply in the sunlight, "A martial artist must have no doubts! We must believe in ourselves to unleash our full potential!"

Qi Mu nodded in understanding.

As the two chatted away, Chu Huan, trying to join the conversation, was repeatedly cut off, his expression darkening. freёnovelkiss.com

Emperor Muwu grew impatient, "You can talk later--break the formation first!"

The two acknowledged the order and approached with their weapons.

Chu Yang then asked, "Master Zhi Mi, where is the weakest point of the formation?"

Finding the weak spot would greatly increase their chances of success.

Zhi Mi, trying to be helpful, circled the formation, but when he returned, his face was pale. "There is none... this formation is equally strong everywhere, and I... I can’t find the core."

Once again, he felt inadequate.

Qi Mu and Chu Yang began to feel the challenge ahead.

Zhi Mi added, "The prince said he has a way to heal Lady Nanli’s Dantian. Perhaps he set the barrier to avoid interruptions. They may not be in danger; maybe we should wait a little longer?"
