The silver moon hung high in the night sky. After the Red Refined Five Lotus Formation broke down, the Dragon House 's Spirit Suppressing Formation was able to completely suppress the extremely flaming spiritual energy.
The light rain that fell for several days in a row made the initially hot summer cool and humid.
The light trace of a flying sword rose from Duchun City and arced across the sky, heading toward the Dragon Mansion at full speed.
Ye Anping bumped into many patrolling guards on the way, but because he was wearing the Black Star Sect uniform and had a disciple identity badge hanging on his belt, he traveled unimpeded.
The cool breeze blew on his handsome face, highlighting his elegant and calm demeanor.
While riding his sword, Ye Anping thought about his sister's request.
The fact that his sister wanted a child was a common sense request, but for him, it was a difficult problem to solve.
---He simply didn't have a physical reaction to his sister.
If he looked for the root of the problem from a medical perspective, it would be that his body had produced something similar to "antibodies" to his sister's scent and hormones.
It was just like old couples who had been together for many years and would face problems such as a decrease in the frequency and length of nightlife. The reason was that their central nervous system had become accustomed to the hormonal fragrance exuded by their partner.
As a result, the central nervous system could not produce enough dopamine, endorphin, testosterone, gonadotropin, and acetylcholine in his body.
"If it really doesn't work, then I'll go back to the Hundred Lotus Sect, steal some of Father's medicine to try it, and that's it..."
Ye Anping still had a troubled look on his face. He and his sister had trained themselves to be invulnerable to all poisons since childhood. Things like 'sleeping incense' and 'charming incense' had no effect on them.
So, he also did not know whether the kind of pills that his father used to 'revitalize' would work for him.
Lost in thoughts, Ye Anping didn't know when he had arrived at the location of the spiritual spring in his memory.
The place was deep in the mountains, and there was no road leading directly there. The stillness of the night was broken only by the chirping of birds and the gentle breeze, and this spiritual spring was located in the center of a group of sycamore trees.
There were wisps of white fog all over the pool, and the edges were covered with dirt and stones, just like a natural hot spring.
Ye Anping scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense and made sure that no one was nearby before walking to the spiritual spring and probing the temperature of the water with his hand. It was almost like bath water.
At first glance, the spring water looked like a pot of fresh fish soup, milky and steamy, and the bottom of the pool could not be seen at all.
But after plunging his face into the water with his eyes open, he found that there was only a layer of milky white fog floating above, and the water below was extremely clear.
"Hmm..."
Ye Anping sighed softly, thinking that the Dragon House most likely had not discovered this spiritual spring, or else they would definitely have protected it, setting up restrictions or something. After all, a spiritual spring was considered a very precious geomantic treasure.
Fortunately, this saved him the trouble of handing Li Longling a request form to bathe in it.
After confirming that there was no problem, Ye Anping took off his clothes one by one, revealing his body to the night, making even the moon in the sky feel a little shy.
Ye Anping didn't like to wear vests or short-sleeved undershirts. At first glance, he looked like a thin young man, but in fact, his figure was in pretty good shape, with clearly defined eight-pack abs and a mermaid line.
Actually, he paid great attention to his figure. An ordinary ascetic cultivator would basically develop muscles as hard as a stone during the ascetic practice. However, he took precautions and used pills to help him and his sister's condition and also avoided turning himself and Pei Lianxue into "Dwayne The Rock Johnson" and "Protein Queen".
After entering the pool, Ye Anping found a fairly flat place and sat down cross-legged, leaning his back on a rock. He immersed himself from the neck down, closed his eyes, and began absorbing the spiritual energy in the pool.
As warmth flowed through his body, Ye Anping relaxed. He breathed in and out, preparing to soak for two hours before going back to sleep with his sister in his arms.
The clouds in the sky floated and slowly reached the moon, and the moon hid behind them as if shying away from Ye Anping's good looks.
Suddenly, whoosh-- two loud sounds made Ye Anping prick up his ears.
Was someone coming?
He slowly opened his eyes, and through the white fog, he vaguely saw two or three figures standing on the edge of the pond.
"Miss, there's no one here, I brought a few maids from the mansion over and told them to patrol the area. If anyone approaches they'll drive them away, so you can be at ease taking a bath."
"Alright."
Li Longling nodded, and with Ling'er's help, she took off her coat and undergarment, gracefully stretched out her toes to explore the water, then slowly walked in.
When half of her body was submerged in the pool, Li Longling pulled her hand away from Ling'er's to keep her dress from getting wet.
"Ling'er, you go around, I'll be fine by myself."
"Miss, I can come in and help you. This pool hasn't been cleared up yet. There might be small rocks at the bottom. If you accidentally fall in..."
"It's okay."
"Well, then... Miss, if you need anything, just call me. I'll be nearby."
"Alright..."
Ye Anping, who listened to the conversation between the master and the servant, felt awkward.
He wanted to shout, "Someone's here!!" but just as he was about to say it, he felt his voice slip away. The maid, Ling'er, would definitely come over to beat him without saying a word. After all, she had never seen his face. Last time they met, he had a bandage wrapped around his face.
Moreover, Li Longling took off her clothes too quickly, and now it was difficult for him to leave.
"..."
Seeing Li Longling walking toward him, Ye Anping opened his mouth helplessly but finally chose not to speak. Since she couldn't see him, he would just leave after she was done bathing.
Then, no one will know what happened today.
Swish---swish---
Adding fuel to the fire, Li Longling split the water's surface with her small hands, slowly walking toward Ye Anping step by step.
Since she was naked, he could see everything.
Her pure white body was delicate and soft, her waist and neck were curved like a crescent moon, and her chest was flawless. The only thing was that the navel was not very regular. Probably, when the midwife cut her umbilical cord, the knotting technique was not too good, but this flaw did not obscure her beauty.
Ye Anping held his breath so as not to be noticed, knowing that Li Longling had outstanding senses other than her sight. But he couldn't help thinking that this girl had developed much better than his sister.
Soon enough, Li Longling reached the stone that Ye Anping was leaning on and slowly sat down with her legs crossed, following the stone's surface.
"Whew..."
She let out a relaxed breath and tried to look up at the starry sky, but unfortunately, she couldn't see even a single star.
"As if I could see what the stars look like... The book says they look like crystals in the sky. What do sky crystals look like... Heh--"
Ye Anping looked at her sideways, feeling a trace of sympathy in his heart, but then he stopped caring and closed his eyes to continue concentrating.
But suddenly!!!
"Sister Li, have you gone in? It's so foggy in this spiritual spring."
Xiao Yunluo's voice suddenly came, causing Ye Anping to snap his eyes open and stare in that direction in horror.
!
"..."
Li Longling replied loudly, "Yes, Sister Xiao, I'm inside. Is Sister Feng here too?"
"She was playing dice in the gambling hall and said she would come here later."
"Then, come in."
"Okay... I'll take off my clothes."
There was the rustling of clothes rubbing. Ye Anping opened his mouth slightly, wondering if he should make a sound, but while he was thinking, Xiao Yunluo had already entered the pool naked and was coming, splitting the water.
"It's so foggy! Sister Li, where are you? The fog is so thick."
Li Longling replied, "Here!"
Xiao Yunluo followed the sound, and when she got closer, she found a head coming out of the water.
Two deep purple eyes stared at her motionless.
Two pairs of eyes looked at each other in silence.
