126: Chapter 126: Why is it another dual cultivation technique?

Ye Changge handed the jade bottle to Xiao Caiyue and said warmly: "Caiyue, hurry and test its effects."

Xiao Caiyue nodded, took the jade bottle, and unplugged the stopper; a refined and pure medicinal fragrance immediately filled the air.

A flash of surprise crossed her eyes—the quality of this Medicinal Pill was far better than she had expected.

She turned and sat on the edge of the bed behind her, leaning forward slightly, and raised her hand to gently remove the exquisite jade shoes from her feet. The jade shoes hit the floor with a soft, crisp sound.

Immediately following that were the pair of white silk socks.

Her movements were gentle as she slowly removed the silk socks, revealing a pair of lily-white, petite, and exquisite feet.

The ankles were slender and refined, the arches of the feet beautifully curved, and the skin was fair and delicate, with faint traces of light cyan veins visible.

The five toes were round and plump, neatly arranged like pearls, glowing with a faint, rosy luster.

Truly, it was a pair of beautiful feet worthy of a painting.

It made one want to hold them in one's palms and caress them to one's heart's content.

Ye Changge's gaze fell upon those lily-white feet, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Caiyue, your feet are truly beautiful."

Upon hearing this, two clouds of red immediately flew across Xiao Caiyue's cheeks.

She raised her eyes and cast a reproachful glance at Ye Changge, secretly scolding in her heart: This person... he doesn't have any other strange hobbies, does he?

She hurriedly and flusteredly pulled back her feet, sat cross-legged, and hid those small, cute feet tightly under her skirt, not daring to reveal them in the slightest.

She steadied her mind, poured a Medicinal Pill from the jade bottle, placed it between her lips, and closed her eyes to begin refining it.

Ye Changge waited quietly by her side.

Time passed slowly.

I do not know how much time had passed, but Xiao Caiyue slowly opened her eyes and stopped circulating her energy.

Ye Changge asked hurriedly: "Caiyue, how is it?"

Watching her slightly furrowed brows, he already had a guess in his heart—the results were likely not ideal.

Xiao Caiyue heard this and said softly: "Husband, there is an effect, but... the effect is not great."

She paused, her tone carrying a trace of helplessness, "This Medicinal Pill can indeed suppress that restless Yang Qi slightly, but it provides minimal help for the fundamental issue of the exhausted Origin. With my current body, I am afraid... nothing less than a third-tier Medicinal Pill will do."

Ye Changge understood in his heart.

It seems that apart from third-tier Medicinal Pills, ordinary ones indeed have limited effects on her exhausted body.

He pondered for a moment, then took a jade slip from his Storage Pouch and handed it over: "Caiyue, take a look at this."

Xiao Caiyue took the jade slip and looked at him in confusion.

"This contains a Secret Art known as the 'Yin and Yang Harmony Chapter' from the Yin Yang Creation Art; it is a Dual Cultivation Technique."

Ye Changge explained, "This technique emphasizes the mutual complementarity of Yin and Yang, as well as symbiotic nourishment; it is beneficial to both parties. If coordinated properly, perhaps... it will be more effective than the Medicinal Pill."

Xiao Caiyue heard this, pressed the jade slip to her forehead, and extended her Divine Sense inside.

A moment later, her cheeks flushed even more.

Another Dual Cultivation Technique.

This person... where does he get so many Dual Cultivation Techniques?

She grumbled inwardly but couldn't be bothered to investigate further.

After all, from their time together these past few days, she could see that Ye Changge was sincere toward her.

Those seemingly frivolous actions actually carried careful protection and respect.

She studied it carefully.

The technique was not difficult, and the core principles were not complex.

One only needed to circulate specific spiritual energy paths during Dual Cultivation, allowing the Yin and Yang Qi to form a cycle both inside and outside the body, mutually nourishing and strengthening each other.

She finished studying it and slowly opened her eyes.

Only to find Ye Changge looking at her with burning eyes, his gaze gentle and focused.

"Caiyue, have you learned it?"

Xiao Caiyue nodded slightly and gave a soft "Mn."

After these days of getting along, she was no longer as resistant to doing these things with Ye Changge as she was at the beginning.

Although she felt a bit shy to face others afterward, the feeling... was actually not bad. It was just a little painful.

Ye Changge said no more.

He leaned down, reached out to gently wrap his arms around her waist, and lowered his head to capture those two soft, bright red lips.

"Mmm..."

A muffled groan escaped Xiao Caiyue's delicate nose, and she leaned back into his embrace.

That pair of lily-white feet, which had just been hidden, peeked out from under her skirt again.

Ye Changge's kiss was gentle and long, filled with guiding exploration.

Xiao Caiyue was a bit raw at first, but she quickly learned to respond.

Clothes gradually fell, and the room was filled with spring.

Yin and Yang Qi circulated between them, gradually forming a mysterious cycle.

While acting, Ye Changge divided his Divine Sense to guide the circulation of her internal spiritual energy, helping her put the essentials of the Secret Art into practice one by one.

Although she was a beginner, Xiao Caiyue was exceptionally intelligent and quickly grasped the key points, starting to cooperate actively.

Time passed quietly in their intimacy.

Meanwhile.

On the border between the Zhao State and the Yu Kingdom lay a vast, rolling mountain range.

This place was called the Myriad Beast Mountain Range, a famous gathering place for Yao Beasts in the Zhao State.

Deep within the mountains, many third-tier Yao Beasts were entrenched.

These were existences comparable to Core Formation Cultivators, each possessing the terrifying power to destroy cities and annihilate lands. Even Core Formation True Persons dared not easily venture deep into the core area.

But at this moment, high above the core of the Myriad Beast Mountain Range, three figures stood in the air.

The Yao Kings below, who were extremely territorial, were currently cowering in their Immortal Caves, not even daring to poke their heads out.

Those three auras were simply too terrifying; they were existences they could not provoke at all.

One of them looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, with the stature of a youth and a handsome face.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his aura condensed and unyielding, faintly revealing a sharpness that seemed capable of severing everything.

It was a pure, ultimate Sword Intent, as if he himself were an unsheathed, peerless divine sword.

Opposite him stood two other people.

One was in the appearance of a young girl, looking to be only eight or nine years old, with double buns and a youthful face.

But those eyes were deep as an abyss, flashing with a coldness that was completely inconsistent with her appearance.

Her aura was slightly chaotic, and there were traces on the corner of her clothes where they had been slashed by Sword Qi.

The other person was in the appearance of a Middle-aged Cultivator with a gloomy face.

His condition was similarly poor; there were many sword wounds on his body, and although the bleeding had stopped, the Sword Intent remaining in the wounds was still faintly wreaking havoc.

The auras emanating from the three of them had clearly transcended the realm of Core Formation Cultivators!

That was the pressure possessed only by a Nascent Soul True Lord!

"Are you two still going to fight?"

The youth-like Cultivator spoke indifferently, his voice clear as a spring, "If you continue to fight, while I am not afraid, I have no interest in wasting time with you."

He was the strongest combatant in the Zhao State, and the only Nascent Soul True Lord in this region—the current Sword Master of the Qingshui Sword Sect, True Lord Juejian.

The girl and the Middle-aged Cultivator opposite him exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with unwillingness.
