Chapter 157: Feasting 😋

***

“Mmm…”

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Muyu slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she felt was the change in her body.

The excruciating pain that had felt like being cut with knives had disappeared, replaced by muscle soreness throughout her body, like she had just done a 30-kilometer cross-country run while carrying heavy weights.

Though it seemed that such a feat wouldn’t be too difficult for her current self now, so the comparison was a bit inappropriate.

Moreover, she seemed to be held by something soft and warm, with a texture as delicate as the finest…

Lin Muyu instinctively looked down, her pupils suddenly contracting as her entire body went rigid:

“Wait… where are my clothes?”

She jerked her head up, her gaze moving to the person holding her.

And the person holding her was none other than her Master, Xinlian!

Furthermore, Xinlian was also unclothed, her delicate skin glowing faintly under the sunlight streaming through the window, without a single flaw, like a work of the finest art.

“M-Master, why are you also…”

Lin Muyu’s voice was trembling. She hurriedly tried to prop herself up, only to discover that the circulation of spiritual energy within her body felt somewhat unusual.

She attempted to mobilize her spiritual energy, and only then discovered that the Seed of Demonic Corruption in her dantian had, at some point, been encased by a mass of mutated spiritual energy with wood attributes. It was as if trapped by a transparent barrier, firmly pressed into a corner of her dantian, unable to cause trouble anymore.

What shocked her even more was her cultivation level.

Originally, she had been stuck at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, still some distance from the middle stage.

But now, her spiritual energy had already filled to the point of nearly overflowing, and her realm had directly leaped to the late stage of Foundation Establishment. That feeling of explosive growth in power was like swallowing 10 Great Supplement Pills in one go, her entire body was filled with strength.

She really had become fat from eating it all in one bite.

“Master, wake up!”

Lin Muyu gently shook her body, and the soft sensation coming from behind her instantly made her cheeks burn. Some hazy memories suddenly flashed through her mind.

She understood now, the method the original soul had mentioned that could save her was actually dual cultivation!

And her usually aloof drunkard Master had actually been willing to go this far to save her.

“Don’t make a fuss, disciple… let your Master sleep a bit more.”

Xinlian murmured drowsily, her arms tightening even more as her cheek nuzzled against Lin Muyu’s neck. Clearly, she hadn’t fully awakened from her deep sleep, and there was even a trace of a satisfied smile at the corner of her mouth, as if she had entered an incredibly peaceful and pleasant dream.

Lin Muyu sighed helplessly.

Great, she had become a body pillow again.

But… before becoming a body pillow, could they at least put their clothes on first?!

She complained weakly in her heart but didn’t continue trying to wake Xinlian.

She knew that once Xinlian fell into deep sleep, even if the sky were to fall, she wouldn’t wake up.

Moreover, after what had just happened, Xinlian must have expended quite a bit of mental energy.

She just couldn’t understand why her Master always loved sleeping so much.

Clearly, as a cultivator, she no longer needed to depend on sleep like mortals did.

Thinking about this, Lin Muyu stopped pondering further and instead began reproaching herself.

Who would have thought, Lin Muyu, that not only did you get intimate with your senior sister, but now even your Master…

Lin Muyu’s face immediately flushed red, and she quickly raised her hands to cover her face. She was too embarrassed to face anyone now.

However, she also felt somewhat fortunate. Thankfully, in the sect, even the sect master had no authority to reproach her Master. Otherwise, someone would definitely jump out later to say they had violated ethics.

“Sigh…”

A long sigh escaped from Lin Muyu’s mouth.

Although Xinlian had done such a thing, she couldn’t blame her at all. On the contrary, she had to be grateful.

Everything Xinlian had done was to save her life, it was a necessary measure. More importantly! She had actually been very gentle during the process.

After all, given Xinlian’s cultivation level, if she had used even a bit of force, Lin Muyu’s body would have fallen apart.

At this moment, aside from an indescribable exhaustion throughout her entire body and a lingering ache in a certain specific part of her body…

Everything else felt light and comfortable due to her breakthrough in realm, and her spiritual energy circulated much more smoothly than before.

This experience was worlds apart from the torture Su Wanqing had put her through back then.

But on second thought, Lin Muyu’s face fell again. So “this time,” her first time had gone by in a daze again?

She glared at empty air for a long while before finally slumping her shoulders in defeat, no longer feeling the urge to complain.

Right now, her only thought was to quickly get off Xinlian, then immediately put on clothes, and preferably have her toes dig her a bottomless hole to hide in forever.

Just as her mind was in complete chaos, a forgotten memory suddenly surfaced.

Wait! Didn’t she still have an important matter to report back to the sect?

Lin Muyu suddenly snapped back to attention, her heart jumping.

Before she was captured by those women, hadn’t many sect disciples already been forcibly injected with demonic energy?

And since this had happened before Xinlian arrived, she shouldn’t know about it.

With this thought, Lin Muyu could no longer care about embarrassment. She immediately called out loudly to the person beside her:

“Master! Wake up quickly, I have something extremely important to tell you!”

“…”

The only response was the sound of quiet breathing.

Xinlian remained with her eyes tightly closed, her face carrying a hint of post-coital languor, completely unresponsive to her calls.

With no other choice, Lin Muyu could only try to struggle, wanting to extricate herself from the other’s embrace and then go find someone to help.

But right now, the two of them were facing each other completely bare, their skin pressed together without any barrier. The slightest movement created fine friction between their skin, bringing waves of tingling sensations.

“Mmm…”

Lin Muyu instantly froze, her cheeks rapidly flushing with a scorching red.

She belatedly realized that her body seemed much more sensitive than before. Such struggling wouldn’t wake her Master, it would only make herself increasingly flustered.

If struggling won’t work, then the only option is…

Lin Muyu’s gaze fell on the arm wrapped around her waist.

It was Xinlian’s arm, fair-skinned, with slender lines, looking soft and delicate.

She gritted her teeth, steeled her heart, and lowered her head to gently bite down on that pristine white arm.

“Tsk…”

Lin Muyu released her bite with a frown, feeling completely exasperated.

“It looks so soft, so why is it so hard to bite? It’s like biting into a piece of highly resilient soft jade, there’s not even a mark left!”

So what other part is soft?

Lin Muyu’s eyes darted around, her gaze sweeping over the other’s body before finally settling on that thing with its pink coloring.

Got it!

She took a deep breath, as if making some kind of resolution, slightly raised her head, aimed at Xinlian’s lips, and bit down hard.

“Mmm…”

The sensation was indeed soft, carrying a faint fragrance, but still had no effect.

What caught her even more off guard was that in the next second, Xinlian slightly tilted her head and turned the tables, biting onto her lips instead.

“Mmm?!”

Lin Muyu’s pupils shrank, and her entire body went rigid.

Something’s wrong!

Why… is Master’s tongue coming in?

……

Meanwhile, in Xinlian’s dreamscape, there was an entirely different warm scene.

“Master! What you’re holding, is it something delicious you brought for me?!”

Little Xinlian, wearing sect disciple robes, looked up with her round little face, her eyes sparkling as she stared at the soft jelly-like thing in the hands of the woman before her, her voice full of anticipation.

“That’s right.”

The woman, dressed in a moon-white immortal dress with an ethereal temperament, smiled and rubbed the top of her head, her voice extremely gentle.

“I brought this especially for you. Your senior brother doesn’t get any. Remember to eat it slowly, don’t choke.”

“Mm-hmm!”

Xinlian nodded vigorously, carefully extending her small hands to cradle the “jelly” in her palms.

The soft sensation at her fingertips made her eyes brighten even more. She brought it close to her mouth and sniffed, a faint sweet fragrance wafted into her nose.

I wonder if it tastes sweet?

She tentatively stuck out her little tongue and gave it a light lick.

“Sweet!”

The pure sweetness instantly exploded on her tongue. Xinlian’s eyes lit up, and she couldn’t help but extend her tongue even longer, wanting to taste more of that sweetness.

But just then, the jelly in her palm suddenly seemed to gain sentience, wriggling slightly as if trying to dodge her tongue.

Xinlian immediately got annoyed. Her little brows furrowed, and she simply wrapped her tongue around it, not allowing the jelly any chance to escape.
