Seeing Su Ji struggle repeatedly, forcing himself to endure despite his exhaustion, Su Jiu’s heart softened despite herself.
Her eyes flickered, and the robe woven from [Hundred-Refined Heavenly Silk] silently unfurled around her.
One by one, crystalline threads stretched out like sentient vines, extending gently to entwine Su Ji.
The threads did not wrap carelessly but instead aligned precisely with the meridian pathways in his weakened body. Like resilient yet steady braces, they corrected the flow of qi that was on the verge of dispersing.
Su Ji’s body trembled slightly.
A cool, soothing surge of spiritual energy seeped slowly into him through the threads. It felt like a building on the verge of collapse suddenly supported by unyielding pillars. The weakness remained, but the scorching pain and fatigue in his meridians were now held firmly in check by this external force.
The back he had hunched from sheer exertion began to straighten gradually under this steadiness.
Time passed quietly.
Su Ji’s breathing grew heavier, and sweat beaded on his forehead.
At last.
At the tip of his finger, a droplet of spiritual liquid, faintly shimmering like morning dew, coalesced slowly into form.
“First cup.”
Su Jiu said nothing.
Su Ji guided the drop downward, letting it fall gently.
Su Jiu let out a soft sigh.
A current of pure, intensely refined warmth streamed in from the acupoint at the soles of her feet, instantly surging through all her limbs and bones.
It was like parched land receiving a long-awaited rain. Her dry meridians greedily absorbed the nourishment.
She looked up at Su Ji’s pale face, pressed her lips together unconsciously, and a flicker of complex emotion crossed her eyes.
“Senior Brother.”
“Two more cups.”
Su Ji gritted his teeth without responding. He closed his eyes once more, gathering his spirit.
The formation of the second drop of spiritual liquid was far harder than the first.
He felt his very soul tremble. Darkness crept at the edges of his vision, and his focus nearly scattered.
Just as his strength was about to give out—
A gentle yet resilient surge of spiritual energy flowed in through the connection of the threads, firmly shielding several vital acupoints.
It was Su Jiu, using the tool to bear part of his burden and stabilize his foundation.
Warmth welled up in Su Ji’s heart, and his nearly shattered will miraculously re-coalesced.
“Hum—”
The second drop of liquid finally took shape.
The process was similar to before.
But this time, Su Jiu’s reaction was noticeably stronger.
A faint blush tinted her cheeks. Her breathing hitched. Those usually lively fox-like eyes became hazy, shimmering with a watery light. As her gaze wandered, it revealed an unusual tenderness.
“Senior Brother…” Her voice was soft, carrying a hint of unconscious dependence. “Keep going…”
Su Ji felt as if he had reached his limit.
This was hardly a matter of “self-imposed three cups”—it was outright testing his cultivation foundation!
“The last cup!” He shouted lowly, like a last-ditch gambit.
With no reserve left, he drove his dark-golden inner core to its absolute peak!
Violent spiritual energy surged and clashed through his meridians, bringing searing pain—yet also forcing out traces of unprecedented potential.
At the same time, a drop of liquid, even more radiant and brimming with life than before, quiveringly formed at his fingertip.
Su Jiu stared at that drop of shimmering essence, then at Su Ji’s expression. A flicker of clear pain crossed her eyes.
“Senior Brother.”
She looked at him, his reflection clear in her eyes.
The corners of her lips lifted. Her smile bore a faint, girlish shyness, and also… a hint of the Little Fox’s sly cleverness.
The spiritual energy melted into her palm as it entered. Vast and pure, mixed with a refined, orchid-like scent, it poured without reservation into her dantian.
Boom—
This unrefined, pure qi surged like a spring tide through her parched meridians, nourishing every hidden injury.
Su Jiu’s face flushed scarlet, as if bathed in sunset clouds. She dared not look at Su Ji any longer. She turned swiftly, leaving him only with the sight of her slightly trembling back.
