269: I don't want to be at the bottom!
"Ye... Yes."
"My Disciple didn't offend you, did she!"
Empress Wuyou felt a bit uneasy, her gaze flickering as she replied.
She was the type who would pretend not to see, yet glance a thousand times out of the corner of her eye.
During these four days of Cultivate, Empress Wuyou's Divine Sense often swept over the small hut.
She wanted to find out what was happening.
But her attempts were all blocked by the Barrier.
However, none of this escaped Qin Feng's perception.
Now, she was still being evasive.
"She didn't offend me, but your Disciple is quite mischievous!"
"Why do you look a bit timid?"
Qin Feng stared intently, scanning Empress Wuyou as he spoke.
Being so close, Empress Wuyou felt even more uneasy.
"I... how am I timid?"
"When we fought the Foreign Realm, I went to battle too!"
Empress Wuyou stepped back, her voice sweet and crisp, yet very soft.
Although she was somewhat evasive, she kept scanning Qin Feng out of the corner of her eye.
He is actually quite handsome!
But, what does he want to do?
Could it be that even Empress Xianfeng couldn't make him...!
Is he going to make a move on me?
Thoughts kept popping up in Empress Wuyou's mind.
Although she was a bit afraid, she also felt a small sense of anticipation.
*Thump...!*
Ultimately, Empress Wuyou's retreat was blocked by an old tree; she had nowhere left to go.
"Sister Wuyou, your injuries haven't healed yet!"
"Shall I help you?"
Qin Feng moved his body, drawing closer and closer, and reached out to grab Empress Wuyou's delicate hand as he spoke.
"Qin Feng, I... I'm fine, I'll be better soon."
Empress Wuyou's heart raced, and her delicate hand trembled slightly as she spoke.
She thought to herself, "It's over, I'm done for."
"But, he's quite handsome, so this isn't a loss."
"Everyone else is already like this, how can I remain an exception?"
Although Empress Wuyou refused with her words, she didn't put up much resistance.
At the very beginning, her palm struggled a few times.
It was soft and weak, as if she wasn't using any strength at all.
If someone uglier had grabbed her hand, her Imperial Authority would likely have erupted instantly.
"Sister Wuyou, don't force yourself."
"Let me see, is the injury serious?"
With a gentle pull from Qin Feng, Empress Wuyou stumbled and immediately lunged toward him.
"Thud!"
With a soft sound, she crashed into Qin Feng's embrace.
Empress Wuyou's mind was racing.
Should she resist or not? She could recover from this small injury on her own.
There was no need to trouble Qin Feng, right?
But, since everyone else was like this, how could she remain an exception?
After a quick thought, Empress Wuyou decided to let Qin Feng help.
She simply stopped moving and buried her burning cheeks deep in Qin Feng's embrace.
Qin Feng: "Don't be afraid, there are some hidden ailments I can't see clearly."
As he spoke, Qin Feng carefully examined the injuries.
On Empress Wuyou's shoulder, there was a tiny wound.
Empress Wuyou had been recuperating on her own, but it hadn't healed even after four days.
"Hiss...!"
Just as Qin Feng lifted the torn fabric, Empress Wuyou felt a twinge of pain and took a deep breath.
At the same time, a breeze blew by, feeling chilly.
Qin Feng: "That damned Immortal King, his strike was too ruthless."
On the wound, there was still a faint Divine Light preventing it from healing.
*Whoosh, whoosh...!*
Qin Feng slowly pressed his right hand down, releasing ancient Runes to obliterate the Divine Light.
As the Divine Light vanished, that area began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Besides that, Qin Feng saw that Divine Light existed in many other places.
For example, there was also a wound on Empress Wuyou's slender right leg.
It could not heal.
Seeing this, Qin Feng felt a slight pang of heartache.
Immediately, he placed his right hand on the wound and used ancient Runes to obliterate the Divine Light.
To speed up the circulation of the Runes, Qin Feng also gave it a gentle rub.
"The Ancient Great Law is indeed powerful."
"If it were just me, I would have had to recuperate for at least seven or eight years."
Empress Wuyou trembled slightly and muttered to herself.
Soon, the wound on her slender leg recovered.
It was smooth and delicate, without a single scar left behind.
Empress Wuyou couldn't help but reach out and touch it herself.
"Thank you, Qin Feng."
Empress Wuyou squirmed a bit and said.
"It's nothing, we are all doing this for the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."
Qin Feng said with a righteous expression.
Then, Empress Wuyou moved and raised her flushed face.
"Qin... Qin Feng, I have more here."
Wuyou pointed to her abdomen.
That area had also been injured by the aftershocks.
It was also the most serious part, with the wound extending all the way down.
It was quite a long wound.
Qin Feng: "Don't worry, with me here, everything will be fine."
Qin Feng patted her shoulder and comforted her.
Then, Qin Feng carefully released ancient Runes to help Empress Wuyou remove the Divine Light.
Soon, many of the injuries gradually recovered.
"Qin Feng, this healing technique of yours...!"
"I want...!"
Empress Wuyou couldn't take it anymore; who could possibly withstand this!
"Mhm!"
Qin Feng nodded, and with a thought, a Barrier was instantly formed.
Next was the deep treatment... one day later.
Empress Wuyou finally recovered.
All the injuries on her body were cleared by Qin Feng using ancient Runes.
And within that one day.
Empress Xianfeng woke up.
At this moment, she was lying on the wooden bed inside the room.
Her eyes were filled with shock.
"I... I was blessed with Luck."
"And five hundred years of cultivation level."
"This... this!"
Empress Xianfeng was speechless; it was too shocking.
She only wanted the Ancient Great Law and didn't know there would be such benefits.
To be blessed with such terrifying Luck.
Empress Xianfeng was overjoyed.
"This is a huge gain, a massive profit."
"I knew it, no wonder Guanghan Empress and the others are all like this."
"So that's how it is!"
After a good while, Empress Xianfeng finally had an epiphany.
As if she had discovered a new world, her face was covered in smiles.
"No, I have to recuperate well and do this a few more times."
"To improve my strength."
Then, Empress Xianfeng spoke to herself with a determined gaze.
If things continued like this, she would be able to Breakthrough to a higher Realm within a hundred years.
Setting aside the blessing of Luck, gaining five hundred years of cultivation level in just a few days...
...was simply like using a cheat code.
At this moment, Empress Xianfeng finally understood why the Empresses of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths had suddenly become so strong.
Each one was more monstrous than the last.
Among them, she could only be considered near the bottom.
The only good thing was that there was still Empress Wuyou.
Her strength was even lower than hers; she was the one at the very bottom.
After the excitement and exhilaration.
Empress Xianfeng tried to get up, but her whole body felt weak.
The period of weakness left her without any ability to move.
"Whoosh...!"
She spread out her Divine Sense, preparing to look for Qin Feng.
Suddenly, she spotted a Barrier in the dense forest.
"Qin Feng, he couldn't be increasing Wuyou's cultivation level, could he?"
"Oh my god, I absolutely cannot let her strength surpass mine."
"I don't want to be at the bottom!"
Upon seeing the Barrier, Empress Xianfeng couldn't help but shout in her heart.
