Chapter 314: Chapter 313: Spiritual Medicine Nourishing the Body
Ye Fan and Qin Yanran rested for a short while and then began their descent from the mountain. Although Ye Fan had not yet regained his full strength, he could now move around with ease.
When the pair returned to Jiangning, Ye Fan began preparing to refine the Elixir Pills. Even though matters concerning the Ice Phoenix Sect Master were not yet settled, Ye Fan believed that matters concerning his women were the most important.
Three days later, he finally succeeded in refining the pills. It had to be said that Elixir Pills made from thousand-year-old Ganoderma were truly extraordinary. Each of the dozen or so pills he had created resembled a pearl, emitting a rich, fragrant Spiritual Energy that made one want to take a bite at first glance.
Then, Ye Fan called Qin Yanran over. He said to her, "Yanran, I’m actually not sure if this pill has any side effects, so I plan to have you take it first. If there are any side effects, I will be by your side the whole time. Nothing will go wrong!"
"Okay, Ye Fan, I believe you," Qin Yanran nodded. She didn’t think Ye Fan had any selfish motives; after all, he would be right by her side, and if anything were to happen, he could easily handle it.
As soon as she swallowed the Elixir Pill, she felt an immense dizziness and a powerful urge to sleep. "Ye Fan," she said weakly, "I suddenly feel so sleepy."
"That’s a good sign!" Ye Fan grinned deviously.
Deviousness, it had to be said, had become second nature to him. Otherwise, this was just a normal reaction to taking an elixir pill—nothing so dramatic. He then settled her into bed to sleep.
「The next day...」
A sharp scream from Qin Yanran jolted Ye Fan awake. He quickly got up, but as he reached the bedroom door, a pillow came flying at his head.
"Yanran, what’s wrong?" Ye Fan asked.
"Hmph! What did you do to me? Why am I covered in this grimy stuff? It’s disgusting!" Qin Yanran shouted.
However, Ye Fan was pleased to hear her complaint. This meant only one thing: the Elixir Pill had successfully opened her Spirit Veins. After all, she was a mortal. Her body would naturally contain many impurities, and this was simply the expulsion stage. Looks like the Elixir Pill worked perfectly. Then again, I’ve never failed at refining even higher-grade pills. This time was no exception.
So he said to Qin Yanran, "Yanran, that’s just toxins being expelled from your body. You’ll understand its effect once you’ve washed it all off."
"Alright, I’ll trust you one more time!" Qin Yanran immediately rushed to take a bath.
This feeling of being misunderstood was unavoidable, but he was used to it. With a helpless shrug, he decided to wait for Qin Yanran to finish her bath.
An hour later, Ye Fan grew increasingly anxious. He couldn’t believe a bath was taking over an hour. Now I know for sure that women are the biggest wasters of water.
Another half-hour passed before Qin Yanran emerged in a panic. While bathing, the grime had almost made her sick, and she still wasn’t sure if she was completely clean. Never in her life had she been so utterly filthy.
The moment she stepped out, however, Ye Fan was stunned. She was breathtaking! Qin Yanran had always been a top-tier beauty, but this metamorphosis had blessed her with a transcendent aura. He had never seen her look so radiant. She’s simply too alluring. For some reason, just standing before her now, I feel a sense of reverence, as if she were a sacred being that cannot be defiled.
"Ye Fan, is there still dirt on my face? Why are you staring at me like that?" Qin Yanran asked, unable to understand his reaction.
But Ye Fan simply said, "Yanran, you’re so beautiful right now. So beautiful you take my breath away."
"Really?" Qin Yanran asked incredulously.
"If you don’t believe me, look for yourself!" Ye Fan said as he held out a mirror.
Qin Yanran gazed at her reflection. When she saw herself in the mirror, she was shocked. She hadn’t expected the elixir’s effect to be so profound; it had almost transformed her into someone else. Now, her skin was flawlessly fair, and her aura was as ethereal as an Immortal. She was the very definition of perfection.
"Beautiful?" Ye Fan asked.
"Yes, yes! Ye Fan, I love you to death!"
It couldn’t be helped; a love for beauty is in a woman’s nature. Even a woman as gorgeous as Qin Yanran would never object to becoming even more beautiful, and she was no exception.
At that moment, Qin Yanran said, "Ye Fan, I feel so light! I feel like I could fly!"
Ye Fan explained, "With all the impurities purged from your body, of course you feel like you could fly. You can begin cultivating now, and your cultivation speed will be incredibly fast—faster than you can possibly imagine."
"Ye Fan, that’s fantastic! I’ve always wanted to train in Martial Arts and become a master!" This was truly her heartfelt desire.
"We can talk about you becoming a Martial Arts master later," Ye Fan said. "I think right now, we can do something else!"
"Something else?" Qin Yanran asked.
"This," Ye Fan replied, a grin spreading across his face as he suddenly swept her into his arms.
Qin Yanran, of course, knew what he wanted. Since he was in the mood, she had no intention of refusing.
Without delay, their passion ignited in the bedroom. As always, her expression shifted from pleasure and ecstasy to one of pain. She bit down hard on his shoulder, unable to withstand his powerful thrusts. After their tempestuous lovemaking subsided, Ye Fan held her close as they drifted off to sleep.
Then, Qin Yanran said to him, "Ye Fan, I feel like I’m the happiest woman in the world!"
"Why is that?" Ye Fan asked.
"Because right now, I have you all to myself!" Qin Yanran said sweetly.
However, just as the two were sharing this tender moment, the bedroom door was suddenly thrown open.
Startled, Qin Yanran quickly hid under the covers.
Ye Fan hastily looked up and was instantly speechless. The person who had entered was none other than his wife, Su Qingxue. He hadn’t expected her to be back.
He stammered awkwardly, "Honey..."
Su Qingxue’s voice was ice-cold. "Who is the woman under the covers?"
She assumed Ye Fan had brought home another one of his floozies to fool around with.
Qin Yanran poked her head out and said, "It’s me!"
"You? Weren’t you in Shangjing? What are you doing in my house?"
Su Qingxue had intended to give Ye Fan a surprise, but the moment she saw him, her surprise had turned into a nasty shock.
"Oh? It’s not like I’m forbidden from visiting your home, am I?" Qin Yanran retorted with disdain.
It was normal for minor squabbles to erupt between women, but Ye Fan knew he had to intervene. Otherwise, this small conflict could erupt into a full-blown volcano.
