32: Chapter 32 The Spirit Spring Mishap! Jumping into the spring in a skirt angers Yao Jia, a kiss seals their love.

Within the Grotto-Heaven, Spiritual Qi permeated, and the Living Spirit Spring emitted an alluring glow and energy fluctuations.

Li Siwen (Li Shiwen) looked at the Living Spirit Spring, and suddenly an idea sparked in his mind, the image of Senior Brother Yu Qing’s unhealed severe injuries surfacing.

"Sister Yaojia, please wait a moment!" He quickly took out a high-quality jade bottle from the System space, carefully walked to the spring's edge, and filled it with milky white spring water.

"This Living Spirit Spring is so vibrant with life, perhaps... it might also have some effect on Senior Brother Yu Qing's injuries." He shook the jade bottle and carefully put it away.

Chen Yaojia heard this, and a hint of appreciation and tenderness flashed in her eyes: "You always think of him. With the miraculous effects of this spring, there's definitely a chance it can help him recover."

After putting away the spring water, Li Siwen turned to Chen Yaojia and urged, "Alright, Sister Yaojia, hurry and go in to heal your injuries."

Chen Yaojia's cheeks flushed slightly, she glanced at him, her voice a little lower: "You... you turn around first."

Li Siwen was taken aback, then realized, and chuckled, "Alright, alright, I'll turn around, I promise not to look."

Saying that, he turned his back to the Living Spirit Spring as instructed.

Behind him, there was the rustling sound of clothes rubbing, and a faint splash of water.

After a while, hearing that Chen Yaojia seemed to have fully entered the spring, Li Siwen finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he should also prepare to Cultivate.

He completely forgot to remove his makeup. The 300% talent bonus in his female disguise was crucial for him to comprehend and absorb the Living Spirit Spring's energy. How could he waste it?

Thus, under Chen Yaojia's astonished gaze, "Li Shiwen," this "Fairy"... actually jumped directly into the Living Spirit Spring, still wearing that moonlight tassel dress, with a splash.

Chen Yaojia: "???"

She was stunned at first, then reacted, and a feeling of being "teased" surged in her heart!

This guy actually came down with his clothes on? Doesn't that make her look stupid for stripping naked?

This guy... couldn't he be trying to take advantage? What a scoundrel!

"Li! Si! Wen!" Chen Yaojia was so angry that she directly scooped up a handful of spring water and splashed it at him, "You bastard! Was that intentional?! Are you playing tricks on me?!"

Li Siwen was splashed in the face, he blankly wiped his face, and innocently said, "Sister Yaojia, what's wrong? I wasn't playing tricks on you..."

He genuinely didn't feel anything was wrong, entirely focused on Cultivating as quickly as possible.

But his "innocent" demeanor, in Chen Yaojia's eyes, was even more "detestable"!

"You're still pretending!" Chen Yaojia was furious, both embarrassed and annoyed, and instinctively wanted to stand up to "teach" this mischievous guy a lesson.

However, she forgot that she was in the water, and also forgot that the injury on her back had not yet healed.

As she suddenly stood up, the resistance of the water combined with her overly forceful movement caused her back wound to be pulled, making her gasp in pain, and her body swayed unsteadily, stumbling forward!

Splash!

Water splashed everywhere!

With that, her upper body was almost completely exposed above the water, her exquisite curves, fair and smooth skin revealed without reservation amidst the misty Spiritual Qi and water light...

Although it was only for a split second, it was enough to make one's Bloodline surge.

Li Siwen was facing her, taking in this sudden glimpse of spring scenery.

He instantly froze, his eyes staring straight, his mind a blank.

Chen Yaojia also realized what had happened, let out a cry of surprise, her cheeks instantly flushed crimson, and she fumbled to shrink back into the water to cover herself, but due to panic and pain, her feet slipped again, completely losing her balance, and she was about to fall into the water!

"Be careful!"

Li Siwen finally snapped back to his senses, cried out in alarm, his Internal Energy instinctively circulated, and his body shot forward like lightning, wrapping an arm around Chen Yaojia's slender and soft waist, steadying her firmly, preventing her from choking on water in embarrassment.

However...

The sensation upon touch was that of unobstructed, delicate and warm jade-like skin.

Their bodies pressed tightly together; he could clearly feel the softness and astonishing elasticity of her body, as well as her violently pounding heart.

The rising steam, mixed with her faint fragrance, continuously drifted into his nostrils.

Chen Yaojia stiffened in his arms, her cheek pressed against his similarly soaked clothes, her body trembling slightly, unsure if it was from embarrassment, anger, or the pain of her wound.

The air seemed to solidify, leaving only the gurgling sound of the spring water and their somewhat disordered breathing.

An ambiguous, awkward, yet indescribably stirring sensation permeated the Living Spirit Spring.

[From Chen Yaojia's embarrassment and accelerated heartbeat +80]

"You... you let go of me!"

After a long while, Chen Yaojia protested in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, trying to push him away, but she had no strength.

Li Siwen also reacted, quickly letting go, his gaze flitting about, not daring to look at her, speaking incoherently: "I'm, I'm sorry, Sister Yaojia, I didn't mean to... I, I just wanted to help you..."

Seeing his rare awkwardness, and recalling the oolong and accident just now, the embarrassment and annoyance in Chen Yaojia's heart strangely dissipated a lot, replaced by a playful desire for "revenge."

Her eyes sparkled, a hint of slyness suddenly flashing, and she huffed, "Hmph! You look and touch, then you want to run? It's not that easy! I want to look at you too!"

Saying that, she actually reached out to pull at the tassel dress sash that was tightly clinging to Li Siwen's soaked body, wanting to "win back a round."

Anyway, her body is female now, it shouldn't matter... right?

"Hey! Sister Yaojia! Stop it!" Li Siwen was startled and quickly dodged.

If his skirt came off, something big would really happen!

The two immediately began to frolic in the warm Living Spirit Spring, water splashing everywhere, laughter and playful scolding intertwined.

Li Siwen, with his soaked dress revealing his figure, though still in female form, was inevitably a bit clumsy in his movements and dodging.

Chen Yaojia, due to her injuries, also dared not make too large movements, but her smile grew wider and wider, as if all the previous awkwardness and shyness had melted into this playfulness.

Unconsciously, their distance closed once more.

Li Siwen grabbed Chen Yaojia's mischievous wrist, their eyes met, and both were slightly breathless.

Looking at her cheeks, flushed redder from the frolic, her beautiful eyes shimmering with water, and her slightly parted red lips, an irresistible impulse surged in Li Siwen's heart.

He inexplicably lowered his head and gently, tentatively, kissed her soft lips.

Chen Yaojia's body stiffened abruptly, her beautiful eyes instantly wide open, seemingly completely unprepared for his sudden action.

But... she did not immediately push him away.

The warmth of the Living Spirit Spring, the misty Spiritual Qi, the ease of their earlier frolic, and a hint of affection that had already grown in her heart, made her at this moment seem to lose all strength, simply enduring this gentle kiss, sweet with the taste of spring water.

[From Chen Yaojia's shock and throbbing heart +90]

However, neither of them noticed...

In the deepest part of this small Grotto-Heaven, within that hazy glow, the ancient consciousness that had been awakened by their disruptive movements was slowly condensing, faintly revealing a phantom, exquisitely beautiful outline of a "Fairy," imbued with an ancient, ethereal aura.

She was curiously "observing" everything happening in the Living Spirit Spring.

At first, she saw two "women" in the spring and thought they were just sisters playing.

Until Li Siwen kissed Chen Yaojia...

The phantom Fairy outline seemed to tilt her head slightly, revealing a clear trace of confusion.

"Can sisters... also be so intimately close?"

She murmured softly, her ethereal voice audible only to herself.

"Or... are they not sisters?"

She felt as if she had forgotten many, many things, having stayed here for far too long, so long that... she seemed to be falling behind the changes of the outside world?

[From ???'s confusion and curiosity +50]
