The gentle, soft breaths brushed against Mu Zhian's face. If the previous fleeting kiss with the maid was merely a passing encounter, then now Mu Zhian truly experienced Wei Mengrou's kiss. Contrary to her cold appearance, her kiss was warm, infused with a sweet fragrance that made one want to lose themselves in this gentle embrace. Suddenly, Wei Mengrou opened her eyes, staring at Mu Zhian with a hint of surprise. Yet, Mu Zhian pretended not to notice, placing a hand on the back of her head, engaging more proactively and tenderly to feel the cold maid's kiss. Wei Mengrou's eyes flickered, her semi-transparent, crystalline earlobes subtly warming, her eyelids lightly lowering, a moist sheen in her gaze. Time slipped by silently. When their lips parted, Mu Zhian was still savoring the lingering fragrance of Wei Mengrou's lips, while Wei Mengrou gently wiped her lips with a handkerchief, her gaze towards Mu Zhian deep and profound. Mu Zhian cleared his throat, saying, "Mengrou, it's just a kiss; it's quite common..." "Have you ever seen anyone who starts groping right on their first kiss?" Wei Mengrou replied coldly, though a trace of lingering blush on her face softened her usual aloof demeanor. She cast a glance at Mu Zhian, sighing, "It seems I was correct in my judgment earlier. You really are an awful, fickle-minded worm." "Worm is a bit harsh, isn't it?" Mu Zhian replied with a wry smile. Though hearing the word 'worm' from Mengrou felt oddly thrilling, making him wonder if he had a peculiar penchant for being scolded by her, Mu Zhian internally quipped. Wei Mengrou gazed at Mu Zhian, her eyes dancing with hesitation before she softly said, "But... what I just said is true." "What...?" Mu Zhian asked. Wei Mengrou exhaled gently, then lifted her eyes to meet Mu Zhian's, "Even a horrid person like you... I still like." "......" An inexplicable silence enveloped the atmosphere. After an undetermined lapse of time, Mu Zhian took a slow breath, looked up at Wei Mengrou, and smiled, "Mengrou, do you have to be this flirtatious?" Even a seasoned player like Mu Zhian couldn't help but feel his heart race in response to Wei Mengrou's teasing, yearning to once again embrace her and relive the warmth of her body. He gazed at the maid in the yellow dress before him and continued, "With you being like this... I can't promise I'll continue to remain rational." Wei Mengrou queried, "Why do you need to stay rational?" The moment she uttered this, Mu Zhian felt an irresistible urge to pull Wei Mengrou into his arms. However, a sudden stir within him signaled the restless upheaval of the heavenly Qi, threatening to erupt from his cauldron, freezing his movements in place. "What a shame, it seems there's nothing more we can do today," Wei Mengrou observed, her eyes entertaining a light smile while watching Mu Zhian. "You knew all along and were just playing with me?" Mu Zhian asked, exasperated. Right now, ensuring the control over the heavenly Qi was paramount; triggering heavenly punishment wouldn't be a joke. Only Wei Mengrou could fully command the heavenly Qi, and while Mu Zhian could barely suppress it, the reprieve wouldn't last. He needed Wei Mengrou to guide it out slowly; otherwise, it could jeopardize his entire cauldron. Then, Wei Mengrou suddenly said, "No preparations for a medicinal bath are needed. To guide the heavenly Qi requires spiritual energy, but since it has a strong affinity for me, I can swiftly guide it away from your cauldron." Mu Zhian was slightly surprised, "Is it possible... How should I do it?" If he had to extract the heavenly Qi from his cauldron on his own, it might take at least two or three days. If possible, it would certainly be better for Wei Mengrou to handle it, as she was, in truth, the original owner of this heavenly Qi. Wei Mengrou hesitated momentarily, her eyes flashing with uncertainty before she continued, "As long as your innate cauldron's spiritual energy isn't fully charged, I naturally have a method to guide out the heavenly Qi." "If the innate cauldron's spiritual energy isn't fully charged, then unless..." Mu Zhian seemed to have realized something and instinctively looked at the aloof maid in the yellow dress. "Could you possibly mean...?" In that instant, Mu Zhian had even begun naming their future child. "It's not as exaggerated as you think; just a partial depletion of spiritual energy will suffice, which is different from dual cultivation," Wei Mengrou clarified, though her cheeks flushed like a light intoxication. Not dual cultivation, but to allow a partial depletion of spiritual energy... does that mean self-'directed' withdrawal? "I'm not very experienced in this. Could Mengrou lend me a hand?" Mu Zhian asked sincerely. Upon reflection, he realized that Mengrou's hand would indeed be more preferable than his own. Despite a flicker of shyness in Wei Mengrou's eyes, she quickly suppressed her emotions. And under Mu Zhian's anticipating gaze, she nodded slightly. However, Mu Zhian suddenly thought of something and, testing the waters, asked, "Or could we try another method?" "What method?" Wei Mengrou's eyes held a hint of unkindness at Mu Zhian's avaricious demeanor. "Remember those warm tights I gifted you?” Mu Zhian inquired. Quietly, he whispered something to Wei Mengrou through voice transmission. By the end of his words, Wei Mengrou's gaze on Mu Zhian turned subtly cold and profound. She lightly pursed her lips, and then her lips curved into a faint smile, softly saying, "I initially thought you were joking; turns out, you really enjoy being scorned, don’t you?" "Only by you, Mengrou," Mu Zhian added. "Turn around, and don’t look back until I say so," Wei Mengrou suddenly directed. At these words, a surge of anticipation filled Mu Zhian's heart, certain that Wei Mengrou had agreed. Indeed, asking that daring question just now was the right decision! This trip to the martial domain was absolutely worth it! Previously, with continuous resets, Mu Zhian's spirit had been verging on exhaustion, at risk of losing consciousness. But now, fueled by Wei Mengrou's words, he felt utterly invigorated. He turned his back to her, refraining from looking at Wei Mengrou. Soon, the soft rustling sound of clothes brushing against skin reached him from behind. Mu Zhian forced himself to resist the temptation to turn around, not wishing to provoke Wei Mengrou in her current state and make her angry. An undetermined amount of time passed before a gentle voice broke the silence, "It’s... done." The voice, compared to its usual aloofness, carried a hint of shyness. Instinctively turning his head, Mu Zhian's gaze met the maid in the yellow dress. Her flowing long hair framed a flawless, porcelain face, her eyes vibrant and alluring, a cool demeanor tinged with a faint blush, radiating a captivating charm. Beneath her skirt, her long, jade-like legs were sheathed in one silk white stocking and one black stocking, forming a perfect boundary between the skirt and her thigh. The smooth, tender skin beneath the stockings was shaped by a soft impression. Seemingly aware that Mu Zhian's eyes had never strayed from her, Wei Mengrou approached him with enticing steps, her lips curving into a tease as she gazed into his eyes. "Does being bullied by your maid excite you? Should I say it's your peculiar taste, or..." She gently tilted her head, leaning closer to Mu Zhian's ear, softly whispering, "Are you a pervert at heart?" In an instant, it became difficult to discern whether she was Wei Mengrou or the original enchantress. Chapter 287: "They are Participating in the Martial Domain Examination" Boom! Within the martial domain, the Desolate Time Chain behind Ye Lingxuan whirled into a golden arc, striking directly at a cultivator's throat. Amidst the cultivator's startled gaze, Ye Lingxuan offered a charming, elegant smile, "Apologies, but best to hand over your points quickly to avoid unnecessary pain; I’m on a tight schedule." Faced with the Saintess of the Forbidden Zone's threat, the cultivator, despite his reluctance, could only surrender his token, passing a point to Ye Lingxuan. Simultaneously, throughout various parts of the martial domain, similar scenarios played out... Unlike Ye Lingxuan and her companions, Lan Mulian's circumstances were notably unique. Everywhere she traversed, cultivators avoided her path, opting not to engage in conflict. Any participant worth their salt knew that Lan Mulian was the Twin Silks Sect's top talent, having achieved Spirit Refinement and Emptiness Transition within just over twenty years. Even with her cultivation restricted within the martial domain, her skills and innate battle aptitude were matters few cultivators wished to contend with. However, Lan Mulian's demeanor differed noticeably from before; in previous assessments, she might have engaged in random 'exchanges,' claiming opponents' points through victory. But today, whether it was due to her eagerness to pass the Martial Domain examination or for some other reason, Lan Mulian had made several decisive moves, each time quickly resolving the battles. Anyone who encountered Lan Mulian could only consider themselves unlucky. Some clueless cultivators even cursed their bad luck in private, wondering who had angered this senior sister Lan, as she hadn't been this terrifying before. ... Whoosh! Bai Ruoxi's flowing gown danced with the wind and snow, her aura merging with the frost, projecting an air of unapproachable majesty, as the golden swords behind her split into nine. From her bosom, she took out a token, noticing she had already accrued seven points. "With three more points, Sister Ruoxi will smoothly pass the Martial Domain's examination, right?" Ye Qian softly said, glancing at the elegant beauty with her ample bust and slender waist beside her. In the Martial Domain, regions periodically transported cultivators to different areas. Shortly after Gu Boxin’s hurried escape, Bai Ruoxi had been randomly relocated to another zone, where she coincidentally met Ye Qian. Though worried about Mu Zhian's situation, Bai Ruoxi knew she couldn't help him even if she were by his side right now. It was better to quickly pass the examination and proceed to Tianheyuan to understand the current circumstances. "I wonder how Brother Mu is doing," Ye Qian mused, looking towards the direction of the Twin Silks Sect, a trace of concern surfacing in her eyes. Bai Ruoxi gently consoled her, "Brother Mu always acts with prudence. Although he's barely managing to suppress the heavenly Qi inside him, he surely has a resolution. What we can do is quickly return to Tianheyuan to find him." Though she spoke with confidence, the former top beauty of Tianxuan City couldn't shake her disappointment. Despite now being a peerless talent herself, the intervention by the former Grand General of the Daqian Dynasty served as a reminder that their adversaries wouldn’t limit themselves to the Spirit Refining realm. Furthermore, recent signs hinted that Mu Zhian’s relationship with Senior Qingdi seemed somewhat strained... Facing such a celestial adversary in the future would require equal cultivation. Swiftly reaching the Returning to Void stage to awaken another spirit consciousness would provide her with the capacity to keep Mu Zhian by her side. At that time, she would have the means to eliminate threats like the malevolent Gu Boxin or the potentially scheming celestial Yao Meng who seemed to have 'ulterior motives' towards Mu Zhian. Bai Ruoxi exhaled softly, her gaze firmly set in the direction of the Twin Silks Sect, ignited with unprecedented determination. ... While disciples within the Martial Domain fiercely competed for spots at the Immortal Ascension Conference, at Tianheyuan, the atmosphere felt leisurely and suggestively intimate. Mu Zhian could vouch for himself; he had absolutely no peculiar fetishes. Yet strangely, in the face of the maid's sharp tongue and her teasing gaze, he felt not a hint of discomfort, but rather, an inexplicable sense of joy spreading through his heart. Even when Wei Mengrou had called him a 'pervert,' there had been a peculiar thrill to it. Could there truly be something wrong with me? Even Mu Zhian began to question himself. But perhaps it was unsurprising. The alluring yet disdainful, gentle voice coupled with a maid's status and those enchanting eyes fixed on him turned her caustic remarks into rewards. At this moment, Mu Zhian undeniably felt a thrill that he couldn't quite articulate. Naturally, in front of his maid, Mu Zhian wished to hide his weaknesses... though his weaknesses were already triggered by the proximity of Wei Mengrou’s alluring presence. Mu Zhian tried to maintain his usual nonchalance, shaking his head with a smile, "Mengrou, it's not that I have an issue... it's just because it's you speaking." He paused, glanced at Wei Mengrou’s blushing yet beautiful face, and added, "And... it's best not to push yourself too hard." Clearly, the maid's actions had surpassed her own shame threshold. Even with the Original Witch's influence, it was still a forced performance. Wei Mengrou tilted her head slightly, her captivating eyes seeing through Mu Zhian’s facade, "Are you embarrassed?" Indeed, being his close maidservant, Wei Mengrou could see right through the true meaning behind every smile and where he might be fibbing. Before her, Mu Zhian had no place to hide. Has Mengrou awakened some unusual trait? Why is her attacking spirit so strong today? Mu Zhian could only return a vague smile, though his heart was racing. Imagine, a maid who usually ignores you or gives contemptuous looks is now close to your side, her teasing, soft voice and subtle fragrance enveloping you, while you feel the pressure from her presence against your chest... It's impossible not to feel moved or shy. Ultimately, Mu Zhian had always been the one pursuing others, with a foresight into future developments, but Wei Mengrou didn’t play by those rules. And this unpredictable manner was utterly captivating, luring one into her loving web. "Mengrou, if you keep this up, I can't guarantee I'll hold back..." "You haven't answered me yet." Wei Mengrou almost pressed completely against Mu Zhian, her head tilted as her enticing lips seemed to linger near his face. Those cold eyes carried a seriousness unseen before. She had all but laid her feelings bare to Mu Zhian, yet he hadn’t reciprocated since the beginning. "You should know my feelings..." Mu Zhian murmured. "I don’t want to know," Wei Mengrou responded coolly.
