Chapter 310: Still Need To Regulate My Breath?
In the dim Pill Chamber, the flickering golden light constantly swayed within the Pill Furnace, emitting an aura that resonated with the deepest desires of cultivators.
Ji You stared at it for a long time, the golden light in his eyes flashing in constant interplay with it.
Yuan Caiwei's expression was similar to his, even a bit more solemn.
Logically speaking, all things in the world are nurtured by the Heavenly Dao, so it's not strange for them to contain the power of the Heavenly Dao, but she had never seen a fruit so pure, completely composed of the power of the Heavenly Dao.
This thing's efficacy is stronger than all the Medicinal Pills used for comprehending the Dao in their Dan Sect.
Could it be that the Immortal Sect has found an Immortal opportunity?
But the problem is, the ruins have been isolated from the world for thousands of years, and there is Evil Qi within that can isolate the Heavenly Dao, so how could it bear such a fruit filled with Immortal opportunities?
"Besides the power of the Heavenly Dao, is there anything else within it?"
"There are some other components, but they are unrelated to the nature of this fruit."
Ji You frowned slightly: "What would happen if I ate it directly?"
Yuan Caiwei turned to look at him: "What cultivators obtain when comprehending the Dao is the power of the Heavenly Dao."
"Let's pretend today's events never happened, whether it's Sect Master Yuan or Yuan Chen, it's best if they don't know."
"Caiwei understands."
The Dan Sect's daughter had her breath regulated last night. Although she didn't say it, she had an involuntary sense of obedience in her heart. Hearing Ji You's words, she nodded obediently.
At dusk, the setting sun burning on the horizon created a moving and soul-stirring red.
The materials refined in the Pill Furnace were placed into jade bottles and stored by Ji You in his storage gourd.
This thing cannot stay in the Dan Sect, so he has to take it away.
However, while he is taking it away, he does not intend to use it for his own cultivation.
He had personally witnessed the tragedy of Qi Ridge and was still wary of the word 'ruins', not believing that the things that came out of it were really good fruits.
Secondly, he was already afraid of entering a demonic state if he failed to fix his Dao. He had suppressed the Heavenly Dao's repeated calls for him to break through to the Daoyuan realm, and he would not run into it himself.
Afterward, the two walked out of the Pill Chamber and returned to the small building.
Under the dim light of the red candles, Ji You leaned over the table and wrote a letter with the results of the refinement, intending to give it to Qi Zhengyang to take back to Yan Shuyi.
For thousands of years in Qingyun World, countless members of Human Race have been diligently cultivating to ascend realms, but now there is an Immortal opportunity that can cross realms, which will definitely break the existing cultivation pattern.
Even if the thing itself is not bad, entangled with the greed of Human Race, it may not lead to good results.
Especially some people who should have died, but now don't have to die, the impact will be complicated.
The Legacy dispute between Xuanjian Peak and Tianjian Peak may intensify, and may even cause a Sacred Artifact dispute within the Immortal Sect.
After all, a single fruit can be worth a hundred years of cultivation. In this oppressive Qingyun World, who would be willing to be inferior to others?
Thinking about it this way, the world's situation may become more complicated.
He hoped that Yan Shuyi would not fall into passivity because of this, so he wrote a lot.
After folding the letter and putting it in his sleeve, Ji You turned to look at Yuan Caiwei: "The storm in the Dan Sect has subsided, and Sect Master Yuan has decided to close the mountain, so after thinking about it, I decided to leave the mountain tomorrow."
In the dim light, the fair-skinned and beautiful Dan Sect's daughter was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking thoughtful. Hearing this, she couldn't help but look up: "Leaving so soon—"
"The ruins have been opened. Although the refined materials have not shown any signs of misfortune, I still feel uneasy in my heart and want to go down the mountain to take a look."
"Father once told me that this is not only a calamity for my Dan Sect, but also a calamity for my Qingyun. Although I don't know what he meant by this calamity, it must not be a good thing. Young Master must be careful."
Ji You nodded: "Unless absolutely necessary, I will not be impulsive and adventurous."
Yuan Caiwei looked at him after hearing this, and after hesitating for a long time, her eyes suddenly trembled: "That—the breath regulation from last night hasn't been completed yet."
"Huh?"
"The medicinal power is accumulating in your body, which is a bit dangerous."
The Dan Sect's daughter raised her head and stared at him, patiently explaining that the residue of the medicine would stimulate toxicity in the human body.
After exploring Ji You's condition with Dan Qi last night, she already knew that the medicinal power in his body had been dissipated, but she still pretended that he needed breath regulation, but she was regulated instead, and the two of them had not mentioned it since.
But she felt that since she had already started pretending, she couldn't just pretend that this matter had passed.
Because if that were the case, she felt that Ji You would definitely think that there was no need for breath regulation last night, and then suspect that she purely wanted to touch the body of Senior Sisters' man.
Yuan Caiwei had always wanted to maintain a dignified image in front of Ji You, so she planned to pretend to make the act complete.
Hearing these words, a strange look flashed in Ji You's eyes.
He knew clearly that he no longer needed breath regulation, so this breath regulation became another meaning in his ears.
"Last night... wasn't breath regulation done?"
"Last night, the Dan Qi had only just entered the body... In short, the medicinal power hasn't been stimulated yet, it's not enough."
Yuan Caiwei said seriously, but when she said the word 'just' in the middle, her face suddenly turned red, and she didn't dare to say clearly what happened after the Dan Qi just entered the body.
Hearing the word 'not enough', Ji You couldn't help but look up at Yuan Caiwei, his expression a little serious.
Yuan Caiwei's buttocks were still sore when refining the Pill just now, so he didn't plan to toss her anymore. Who knew he would hear the word 'not enough', which, like 'no', 'too short', and 'not enough time', greatly damaged a man's dignity.
So Ji You looked at her: "Shall we do it now?"
Yuan Caiwei raised her head after hearing this, her eyelashes fluttering slightly: "Since Young Master is leaving tomorrow, it can only be tonight."
Hearing this, Ji You got up and walked towards the bed.
Yuan Caiwei had always been sensible and called him Young Master instead of Husband, which made it difficult for him to be intimate with her naturally.
However, since the woman had already given up her reserve and taken the initiative, Ji You couldn't be like a scumbag, taking what he wanted and then acting righteously and never giving it again.
Yuan Caiwei looked at him reaching out, a trace of confusion flashing in her eyes.
As night fell, the night gradually surged in, and the stars gradually covered the sky. At this time, the night wind continued to patter against the paper windows.
Ji You sat on the edge of the bed and slowly pulled the Dan Sect's daughter into his arms.
As she landed, Yuan Caiwei tightly hugged Ji You's neck, her lips tightly bitten, and her feet stepping on the wooden platform curled up constantly, her heart muttering that this was not how it was supposed to be.
The breath regulation she was talking about was real breath regulation.
No, it can't be said to be real, but pretending to regulate breath is indeed regulating breath, but it shouldn't be like this now.
However, as the feeling of being regulated in return deepened slowly and unhurriedly, the Dan Sect's daughter did not resist at all, but instead cooperated a little and was invited to take a seat.
Then, breath regulation.
The boudoir bed made of bamboo slats matched the overall temperament of the small building extremely well and was very elastic.
As she sat down, the bamboo strips embedded under the bed bent and bounced up, and after bouncing up, they bent and bounced up again.
Ji You held her slender waist, gradually changing from using stillness to control movement to using movement to control stillness, repeating it many times. All he could hear was Ji Gongzi's soft moans in his ear.
Listening to this slightly distant address, Ji You was a little unclear about what kind of bridge this was.
Breath regulation continued until dawn. With a 'pop' sound, the rich night began to flow slowly.
At dawn, the red sun rose from the top of the mountain.
The continuous mountains gradually became clear as the east turned white, and the outlines of the mountains seemed to be traced with red edges, shining brightly.
Looking from afar, the peaks were stacked with greenery, and waterfalls and springs flowed.
Ji You got up early at Mao time and then packed his luggage in the house.
Yuan Caiwei woke up at Mao time three quarters, obediently lay on the bed for a while, and then began to help him fold the clothes she had washed clean earlier, but out of shyness, she didn't speak.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit silent, Ji Hanfei really wanted to put his hands on his hips and ask her if it was enough this time.
However, Yuan Caiwei's skin was too thin. She had to hide her paintings tightly, and he was afraid of making her cry if he asked her.
The matter yesterday was also strange. She clearly said it was not enough, but later she cried and shouted that it was not okay anymore.
At this moment, a knock on the door sounded, and Yuan Chen and Wu Yue came to the bamboo building's courtyard.
Wu Yue was Yuan Caiwei's personal maid, who would come at the same time every morning, while Yuan Chen came to find Ji You. As a result, hearing that Ji You was going down the mountain, his face was full of reluctance.
"Brother-in-law must leave?"
"Dan Mountain has a great guardian formation, but Feng Province doesn't. I killed five Wujiang, attracting so much hatred. I can't hide in Dan Mountain all the time."
After hearing this, Yuan Chen leaned against the table: "I don't know when this mountain closure will open again. Brother-in-law must come to see me when he has time."
Ji You put the things into the storage gourd and said: "You have told me this sentence hundreds of times, I know."
"Brother-in-law didn't agree when I said it last time."
"That's called default. Besides, even if I don't come to see you, I still have to come to see others, so I will always come again."
Yuan Caiwei's heart fluttered slightly after hearing this, and then she handed over the folded clothes in her hand: "The clothes from Young Master's Tianshu Academy are a bit badly torn. Yue'er helped you cut off the Sect emblem and made a new one."
Yuan Chen turned to look at Yuan Caiwei strangely: "Didn't the honeysuckle soaked yesterday work? Why is Elder Sister's voice even more hoarse?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Caiwei couldn't help but give him a cold look, and the temperament of a mature older sister was undisguised.
Yuan Chen looked at her with some confusion and turned to look at Wu Yue, only to see Wu Yue also drifting her eyes elsewhere, pretending that she hadn't heard any wind or rain.
So, he turned to look at Ji You again.
Ji You coughed: "Tired from regulating breath."
"?"
Yuan Caiwei glanced at him after hearing this and found that Ji You was also looking at him, her cheeks instantly turning red.
The breath regulation she talked about last night was clearly real breath regulation, not the kind with soup and water.
The key is that this time she didn't even have time to make vows of eternal love, and she helped the Senior Sisters serve the man and pack his luggage again. The three of them sent Ji You all the way to the front of the mountain.
Under the bright sunlight, the people of the Dan Sect had already arrived at the foot of the mountain, and everyone watched him walk past the nine-layered steps.
In the breeze, Yuan Caiwei stopped in front of the mountain gate and gently waved her hand to the distance.
Yuan Chen looked at his older sister, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Just now, Elder Sister said she wanted to say goodbye alone, and then her mouth suddenly became so red.
Dan Sect Master Yuan Li also came to see him off, and at this moment he was standing on the other side of the high ground, watching Ji You walk down the mountain, his eyes gradually becoming deep.
Everything in Qingyun World has cause and effect. When a calamity comes, there is a cause, and after a calamity comes, there is an effect, but only Ji You seems to be untouched by cause and effect, and it is unclear what role he is playing.
But in Yuan Li's view, Ji You can never be a small character without any connection.
On a warm and breezy morning, Ji You arrived at Yuelai Inn, handed the letter to Qi Zhengyang, and then departed from Huichun Town, heading towards the Great Barren Forest in the southeast of Qing Province.
At the same time, a Sword Qi soared into the sky, whistling towards the direction of Lingjian Mountain.
At this time, only a day and a half had passed since the Dan Sect was attacked. Some Immortal Sect members who were closer had already returned to the mountain last night, while some Immortal Sect members from afar were entering the mountain gate.
Everyone looked astonished that the Disciples had returned empty-handed.
Subsequently, the accounts of the battle that night plunged countless people into silence.
"Five Elders, all killed by him alone?"
"We only saw three, but the other two must have died too."
"What kind of evil art did this self-taught cultivator from the countryside practice?"
"We don't know—"
In the central part of Yu Province, Asked the Dao Mountain resembled a sleeping Primordial beast, its mountain ridge looming in the clouds.
Ascending from the foot of the mountain, the steep rock walls gleamed with a bluish-black luster, their sharp edges as if they had been cleaved by countless Sword Qi.
Further up, one could see the milky white clouds and mist that perpetually swirled around the mountains, sometimes cascading like waterfalls, sometimes coiling like wandering Dragons.
The heights of the mountains were not uniform. At the very center was the tallest solitary peak, its summit flattened, upon which sat a massive hall of profound black.
The roof of the hall was covered with dark golden glazed tiles, which gleamed with a cold light under the sunlight. Nine bronze exotic beasts of various shapes crouched on the eaves.
The copper bells held in the mouths of the beasts remained motionless in the mountain breeze.
At this moment, Shang Xingdao, the Sect Leader of Asked the Dao Sect, was standing in a fragrant chamber deep within the hall, watching Elder Shang Hui, who was covered in wounds, with great interest. His eyes were deep, revealing no trace of joy or sorrow, only the constant rubbing of two jade balls in his hand.
Subsequently, the voice of Vice Sect Leader Shang Xingkong echoed in the fragrant chamber: "Did Tianshu Academy send only him, or were there more people?"
"Only him."
"But he said he was dispatched by Tianshu Academy?"
Upon hearing this, Shang Hui immediately nodded: "When he came up the mountain, he was wearing casual clothes, but on the night he drew his sword, he specifically wore the Immortal Robe of Tianshu Academy."
After listening, Shang Xingkong looked at his own Sect Leader, his Elder brother: "Tianshu Academy is also involved in the Great Barren Forest matter. They are on good terms with Dan Sect, so it is understandable that they would not send people to the mountain to borrow people, but it is still a bit strange to send someone to guard the mountain for Dan Sect."
"A little cleverness only."
"Brother means to say that he is talking nonsense?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an elderly man sitting opposite him suddenly put down his teacup.
He was Shang Biek, the Chief Elder of the Elder Council of Asked the Dao Sect, with a very high seniority. After hearing Shang Xingkong's words, he coldly said: "Regardless of whether Tianshu Academy authorized it or not, since he killed Shang Zha, his family should naturally be wiped out. By the way, we should also greet Tianshu Academy."
The Vice Sect Leader raised his head upon hearing this: "Then send someone to Shengjing for a trip. However, what about the Zhu Fruit matter?"
"After the selected Disciples within the clan consumed it, their cultivation has been advancing by leaps and bounds."
"Immortal Karma, ah."
At the same time, the Disciples of Tianjian Peak also hurriedly and disheveledly returned to Lingjian Mountain.
Although their whereabouts were secret, wanting to enter the mountain naturally couldn't be hidden from Xuanjian Peak.
After carefully checking that no Alchemists had been brought up the mountain, Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu left from the clouds and mist of the distant mountains and then entered the Cloud Top Heavenly Palace of Xuanjian Peak.
Cui'er and Xing'er were currently in the hall, standing on the side near the hall door, looking strangely at the little girl running back and forth in the hall, whispering to each other.
Five days ago, a large family suddenly moved into the small courtyard on the back mountain of their Xuanjian Peak. Everyone looked ordinary and unremarkable.
However, there was a little girl with her hair tied up in a sky-piercing bun who ran back and forth in the hall every day and often wandered into their Master Jian's room. They were terrified when they first saw her, but later found that Master Jian seemed to dote on her, so they relaxed a little.
However, they still haven't figured out what the little girl's identity is and why their little Master Jian, known for her aloofness, would dote on her so much.
At this moment, Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu had already stepped into the hall.
Cui'er and Xing'er came back to their senses and immediately said upon seeing them arrive: "Senior Sister Ding, Senior Sister Zhuo."
"What's wrong?"
"Who exactly is this little girl?"
"Considered— Master Jian's adopted daughter, perhaps."
Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu looked at Qiu Ru in the hall, thinking that since she had acknowledged Young Master as her godfather back then, she should naturally also be considered Master Jian's adopted daughter.
Hearing these soft words from the two, Cui'er and Xing'er couldn't help but widen their eyes, thinking that Master Jian was still unmarried, so how could she suddenly have an adopted daughter.
However, before they could ask, Yan Shuyi came from the back of the hall.
She was wearing the fiery red Immortal Robe of Master Jian, which accentuated her noble temperament. Coupled with the profound aura around her and her stern expression, she exuded Immortal Qi.
She returned to the mountain from Shengjing after New Year and did not stop her cultivation because of the Great Barren Forest matter. Now she was approaching the threshold of the Wujiang Middle Realm. She had just finished her cultivation and couldn't help but reach out and pinch Qiu Ru's little face when she saw her.
Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu bowed upon seeing this: "Master Jian."
"Are the people from Tianjian Peak back?"
Yan Shuyi stood up and turned her eyes to look at them.
Zhuo Wanqiu nodded lightly: "They have returned, all disheveled. Many people were also injured. It seems like they went through a great battle, but there was no sign of any Alchemists."
Qiu Ru's family was brought by them from Feng Province, and they were also aware of the matter facing Dan Mountain. At the same time, they also knew that their son-in-law had gone to Dan Mountain, and they had been worried these days.
Now that they finally saw Tianjian Peak returning empty-handed, they felt relieved, but only halfway.
Because they didn't bring back any Alchemists, it meant that Dan Sect had managed to defend itself, but they still didn't know what happened to their son-in-law after the battle of Dan Mountain.
After all, the five great Immortal Sects sent out not only more than a dozen Innate Realm cultivators this time but even Wujiang Realm cultivators.
However, before their worries could intensify, a stern Sword Qi suddenly landed on Xuanjian Peak.
Qi Zhengyang had crossed provinces with great magical power and had now arrived outside the hall.
Yan Shuyi walked out of the hall upon seeing this, and Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu immediately followed.
"Master Jian, this old man has returned."
"How is the situation?"
Qi Zhengyang nodded lightly: "Dan Sect has been defended. Sect Leader Yuan Li has already ordered the mountain to be sealed off on the second day."
Yan Shuyi's eyes trembled slightly: "Did Qi Elder take action?"
"Ji You killed five people alone. Those Immortal Sect members saw the Elders die and went down the mountain one after another. This is a letter he asked me to bring."
After saying that, Qi Zhengyang pulled open his sleeves and then took out a letter from it and handed it to Yan Shuyi.
The little Master Jian took the letter and read it word by word, her heart slightly relieved.
That dog thief is quite powerful.
She subconsciously reached out her hand and couldn't help but touch her lower abdomen, and Sword Qi gradually surrounded her.
Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu were still shocked by the news of Ji You killing five people alone until they saw their own Master Jian's subconscious action and came back to their senses.
They couldn't help but look at each other and then pursed their lips together.
After returning from Shengjing, they discovered that their own Master Jian would repeat this action when she was absent-minded, and they had been uneasy for a long time.
The most important thing was that one day after returning, they also discovered that Master Jian had secretly gone down the mountain and sought out Qin Niangzi, a renowned expert in prenatal care, to bring back some pregnancy-stabilizing medicine, which made their hearts beat even faster.
However, the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine was not touched later, and their own Master Jian's belly didn't seem to get bigger.
But even if it didn't get bigger, they were already able to confirm that Master Jian had been slept with by the son-in-law.
She kept saying that she wanted to sever emotions and love, but in the end, Master Jian still succumbed and carefully wanted to conceive one for her son-in-law.
But the problem was that the son-in-law, Master Jian, and the daughter of Dan Sect were clearly together that night, so how could Master Jian have been slept with?
Their talents were not enough, and they didn't dare to guess at such exciting things, so they could only secretly say that they might have tricked Yuan Caiwei by saying that there was someone outside and told her to go take a look or something.
Yan Shuyi came back to her senses at this time, narrowed her eyes as she looked at the expressions of the two maids, and then turned around and entered the hall.
She really thought that she would be able to conceive in one try. After returning, she started preparing to stabilize the pregnancy, but after introspecting for a long time, she didn't see any movement, so she knew that she hadn't conceived.
And what Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu didn't know was that she wasn't touching the place where she was carrying the baby but the position that was bumped into during New Year.
Because she didn't conceive, it meant that she would be bumped into here several more times. Qi Zhengyang flew away after delivering the letter, and Qiu Ru had already finished playing in Yan Shuyi's Cloud Top Heavenly Palace and wanted to go back leisurely.
Yan Shuyi couldn't help but rub her little head and took her to the leisure courtyard on the back mountain.
There were many children in the courtyard, mostly children who were studying in the school in Ji Village, in addition to some servants in the house.
Old Qiu and his wife were also there, and they were currently cooking dinner for them in the courtyard.
Seeing the little Master Jian in Immortal Robes sending their daughter back, the couple wiped their hands and stepped forward, gently calling out Young Madam.
"Are you used to living here?"
"We are used to it. Country people are not picky. These are already extremely good conditions."
Yan Shuyi looked at them: "You will probably have to live here for a while again. If there is anything you are not used to, please tell me. When Ji You has time, he will come to the mountain to take you back."
Qiu Zhong bowed to the end: "We will listen to Young Madam in everything."
The little Master Jian heard the words Young Madam several times, and her eyes couldn't help but narrow. Then she strolled back to the Cloud Top Heavenly Palace.
Seeing her flying away, Old Qiu and his wife couldn't help but turn their heads and look at the Lingjian Mountain below, with its many pavilions and whistling Sword Qi. Their hearts were pounding.
They had always been worried about Ji You's marriage, hoping that he could carry on the Ji Family line.
Later, Kuang Cheng told them that the Young Madam's identity was frighteningly high and not easy to marry.
Later, they saw her and only felt that the Young Madam was as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal, but not frightening at all.
But it wasn't until they really came to Lingjian Mountain, especially when they saw countless Disciples kneeling down to her a few days ago, that they understood what their Young Madam's identity really meant.
