Chapter 188: Chapter 141: I Never Thought Bloodline Sharing Came with a Makeover
(So speechless. They deleted my last Chapter for not having enough words. I added a few, and it got taken down again.)
「One night passed.」
When Jiang Yunnuan regained consciousness, she sensed a dense, abundant power suffusing her entire being. Her body felt as if it were soaking in a Spiritual Energy Pool, an indescribable comfort that made even her breathing much smoother.
Opening her eyes, she saw Fu Yuan cultivating beside her, pure power circulating around him.
The sight filled Jiang Yunnuan with envy.
’Sigh... If only my Superpower and Mystic Technique weren’t sealed, I’d be able to cultivate too. By now, my Cultivation has been needlessly delayed for so long.’
’What’s worse, I have no idea when this will finally be over.’
’Yan Chen’s return is uncertain, Ming Ye is on the run, and as for Jun Yao... it’s better not to even think about him. Where on earth am I supposed to find a new ’strategy target’ to form a contract with and end this damn punishment?’
"What are you thinking about? Why the long face?"
Suddenly, her chin was pinched, and a tall, heavy body covered hers. A handsome face loomed over her, filling her vision.
Jiang Yunnuan felt a bit crushed and reached out to push him away.
"Weren’t you cultivating?"
"Mmm, I was, but I stopped when I saw you were awake. You slept the whole night, so you should be well-rested, right?"
His gaze suddenly darkened, his entire body radiating an unmistakable signal. Jiang Yunnuan picked up on it instantly and, thoroughly annoyed, gave him a light punch.
"Are you ever going to stop?"
’They were doing *it* right up until she closed her eyes last night. Now, she’d just woken up, it was broad daylight, and he wanted to go again? Were they ever going to do anything else?’
’At this rate, she’d end up spending all her days and nights in bed. The thought was horrifying.’
"But I’ve been holding back all night. It’s torture."
He kissed her cheek and pulled her closer...
Jiang Yunnuan’s eyes trembled, filled with disbelief.
"The whole night?"
"Mmm."
He nodded, his voice deep and hoarse, his very breath scalding hot. The moment he finished speaking, he embraced her, unable to hold back any longer, and began to nuzzle against her restlessly.
Jiang Yunnuan: "..."
She felt incredibly conflicted and, for a moment, had no idea what to say.
’But they’d clearly done it last night, so why was he still like this?’
"Then how on earth did you manage to cultivate?"
Cultivation required a pure heart and freedom from worldly desires. She simply couldn’t understand it.
"I endured it and cultivated."
Jiang Yunnuan: "..."
’This guy used to be so detached and desireless. How did he suddenly change so drastically?’
’She barely recognized him anymore!’
In the end, seeing how much he was suffering, Jiang Yunnuan—partly out of pity, partly because of his coaxing—dazedly let him have his way once more.
Partway through, the discomfort became unbearable, and she finally accepted the bloodline sharing.
’Surprisingly, the moment she accepted the bloodline sharing, she felt her physical constitution take a quantum leap. Her body filled with inexhaustible strength, and all her discomfort vanished, leaving only an indescribable pleasure in its place.’
’Sigh, if I’d known bloodline sharing had such benefits, why was I so difficult about it? It would have been so much better to accept it sooner; I wouldn’t have had to suffer so much for nothing.’
’Looking back, all the pain she’d endured during their intimacy was completely self-inflicted.’
Jiang Yunnuan was filled with immense regret.
Fu Yuan suddenly paused, his eyes staring at her in a daze, a hint of fascination surfacing in their depths.
The woman’s waist-length, slightly curled hair had turned an inky blue. Around her eyes and at the center of her brow, scales had sprouted, forming a beautiful pattern.
The scales, varying in their shades, shimmered like rhinestones and were dotted with tiny pearls. It was an indescribably beautiful sight.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
When he stopped, Jiang Yunnuan felt the urge to hurry him along, but then she noticed his strange gaze, and a flicker of confusion rose within her.
"Blue. It suits you. It’s beautiful!"
He praised her from the heart, then leaned in and crushed his lips against hers.
Jiang Yunnuan’s mind flooded with questions, and she wanted to ask what he meant. But the kiss was so deep it left her breathless, and she quickly forgot everything else.
After that, the benefits of the bloodline sharing were on full display.
No matter how rough he became, she never cried out in discomfort. On the contrary, she was exceptionally passionate and took the initiative.
For more than half the day, she seemed tireless, her body brimming with vigor. It was even more exhilarating than dual cultivation.
The man, who had been suppressing his desires ever since that first taste, was finally able to let go completely, reveling in the joy of total indulgence.
「The bathroom.」
After another round, the two turned on the shower to clean themselves off.
Ever since the bloodline sharing, Jiang Yunnuan felt an indescribable affinity for water. She turned to Fu Yuan excitedly.
"Fu Yuan, I think I can control water now."
"It’s more than that. After sharing my bloodline, you now possess all of my Talent Skills. But remember not to use them lightly. First, you aren’t proficient with them. Second, my power is too strong for you. A single mistake could lead to an accident."
Fu Yuan cautioned her gravely.
Hearing his words, Jiang Yunnuan immediately recalled her previous conversation with Si Xie and hastily gave her earnest promise.
"Oh, okay, don’t worry. I won’t use your powers lightly."
’Still, what exactly are his Talent Skills now?’
Suddenly curious, she focused her mind and entered the system’s strategy interface, pulling up his profile.
Fu Yuan: Ancient Kunpeng [Dual Form]
Age: 20
Height: 191cm
Weight: 82kg
Birthday: March 3rd
Talent Skill: Time, Wind, Water, Light & Dark, Fusion, Power of the Sea [Evolution]
Current Cultivation Level: Half-step Ultimate Venerable
Current affinity: 92
Jiang Yunnuan was a little surprised as she scanned the information.
’He has three new Talent Skills. The Power of the Sea was expected, but what are Light & Dark and Fusion?’
’I don’t think I’ve ever seen him use those.’
’And his affinity... I haven’t checked in a while, and it’s already at 92. I guess all my pampering paid off.’
"Oh, right, Fu Yuan. Since I share your bloodline, can I roam freely in the sea now? Can I go wherever I want? And will the Sea Clan stay far away from me?"
"Theoretically, yes. But a shared bloodline isn’t the same as having my actual bloodline, so unexpected things could happen. If you want to go into the sea, you’d better take me with you."
Jiang Yunnuan nodded to show she understood.
After they had washed up and changed into clean clothes, their hair dried with Energy, they passed by a mirror. Fu Yuan guided her to stand before the vanity, embracing her from behind. His fingers gently caressed the pearly scales around her eyebrows.
"Do you like it?"
Jiang Yunnuan: "????"
’What?’
Just as she was about to ask, she saw their reflection in the mirror and froze. She subconsciously leaned closer for a better look and, a moment later, murmured aloud.
"I can’t believe bloodline sharing comes with a free makeover. This look is actually quite beautiful. I can even save on makeup from now on."
