Mist enveloped everything, softly singing in whispers.
The bedroom was in disarray, the dressing table, the desk, the floor, the bathtub, the bed, the windows, everywhere bore traces of the two people.
After Luo Suyi's breakthrough, Lu Chengfeng originally wanted to be gentle with her, to restrain a little, but he didn't expect that over a decade of cultivating the "Golden Thread Jade Robe Skill" had endowed this seemingly fragile woman with astonishing flexibility and endurance in this aspect.
Perhaps because of their different backgrounds, by some twist of fate, they had come together, so Luo Suyi was especially proactive, endeavoring to please him.
They indulged in pleasure through the night, and it wasn't until nearly noon the next day that this charming woman fell into a deep sleep in Lu Chengfeng's embrace.
Lu Chengfeng, however, felt no inclination to sleep. Though he held his lovely wife in his arms, his body seemed like a scorching furnace, a torrent of incomparably abundant essence surged into his body.
The Jade Wave Internal Cultivation Heart Method circulated throughout, continuously refining that abundant, terrifying essence, nourishing his own Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
Under the influence of the cultivation technique, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit seemed to transform into ocean tides, repeatedly washing over his body, causing continuous transformation and exaltation.
As the essence was refined unceasingly, the tides grew ever more fierce, like surging waves, relentless and unending.
The cultivation technique progressed from the Seventh Layer to the Eighth Layer almost without any obstacle, pushing through with just a brief pause, and then effortlessly advancing to the Ninth Layer.
With each advancement of the technique, the operation of Essence, Qi, and Spirit grew increasingly complex, and the resources required multiplied, but with the support of that essence, much time, effort, and hard work was spared.
By the time dusk fell and darkness enveloped the sky, all the essence within had been absorbed, and Lu Chengfeng's Inner Cultivation Heart Method naturally progressed to the Tenth Layer.
At the moment the Tenth Layer of the Inner Cultivation Heart Method was achieved, the Essence, Qi, and Spirit within him completely fused into one, transforming into a single stream of clear qi.
"Inner Qi has emerged, the Tenth Layer of Inner Strength is achieved!"
Lu Chengfeng's face revealed a delighted expression. Although the existence of Inner Strength did not directly enhance his combat power, it signified that his cultivation of Essence, Qi, and Spirit had reached a new height.
"The Essence, Qi, and Spirit are incomparably condensed, and only through the tempering of the Inner Cultivation Heart Method can one obtain this strand of Inner Strength."
"With this Inner Strength, a martial artist need not fear any poisons, and can nourish their body and spirit through pill ingestion, hone their physique, and invigorate their spirit, which greatly benefits martial arts prowess."
The Inner Strength cultivated by the Jade Wave Internal Cultivation Heart Method, also known as Jade Wave Internal Power, is nourishing and persistent, empowering the practitioner with great physical strength, long-lasting endurance, and a resilient body.
Feeling the Jade Wave Internal Power, Lu Chengfeng, embracing his lovely wife in his arms, felt utterly satisfied, the gloom in his heart vanished at this moment.
Turning his head to look at the beautiful face of the woman in his embrace, he couldn't help but lean down and gently kiss her forehead, "My dear wife, you truly are my lucky star."
Even though his movements were extremely gentle, it unexpectedly startled Luo Suyi awake.
Luo Suyi's long eyelashes fluttered as she slowly opened her eyes, initially dazed, but after a moment when she saw the man's face before her, she paused briefly, and then the events of last night flooded her mind in an instant.
Her flawless face turned crimson in a flash, letting out a soft whimper, burying her head in Lu Chengfeng's chest, refusing to come out.
"Hahaha, my wife, you were quite proactive last night, why are you suddenly shy now?"
Lu Chengfeng teased lightly, seeing the young lady's unbearable bashfulness, he felt a burst of affection, deliberately whispering in her ear, "My dear master, this disciple knows I was wrong."
Luo Suyi felt as though her whole being exploded, her mind buzzing, and she almost unconsciously uttered, "You... you bad man..."
Lu Chengfeng flipped over and pinned her down, "Dear master, let this disciple make amends for you, alright?"
"Mmm..."
And in the blink of an eye, the spring scenery in the room revived again.
After a long while, when it became completely dark outside, Luo Suyi lay on Lu Chengfeng's body, her fair fingers randomly tracing on his chest.
"You truly are too naughty!"
Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but chuckle softly, "Who's to blame for my dear master being so enchanting?"
"If you call me that again, I'll ignore you," Luo Suyi pouted, her cherry lips.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. You haven't eaten all day today, you must be hungry, right?" Lu Chengfeng said gently, "Let's get up and eat, I can't let my wife go hungry."
"Mm, as you say, husband," Luo Suyi obediently agreed, propping herself up slightly on Lu Chengfeng's chest to get up, "I'll help you dress."
"No need to go to all that trouble," Lu Chengfeng said, scooping her up in his arms, which elicited a startled yelp from the beauty, "Today, let your husband serve you in dressing."
Amidst playful banter, the two eventually managed to get dressed. As they stepped down from the bed, Lu Chengfeng rang the bell, instructing the maid to bring in the meal.
While waiting, he led Luo Suyi to sit in front of the dressing table, grooming her hair, and drawing her eyebrows, teasing in between.
The two were so absorbed in their chamber fun that they were oblivious to the passage of time. When the meal was finally brought in, they fed each other, finding it amusing in a charming way.
After the meal, the maid cleared the dishes away, and Lu Chengfeng led Luo Suyi to sit beside the desk.
"Suyi, there's something I need to ask you."
Lu Chengfeng's tone was earnest, looking into Luo Suyi's eyes, "You've practiced the 'Golden Thread Jade Robe Skill' for over a decade, have you ever thought about what to do in the future?"
"This cultivation technique doesn't benefit you much, have you considered switching to another technique for cultivation?"
Hearing this, Luo Suyi paused a little. She had been practicing the 'Golden Thread Jade Robe Skill' for so many years, she had already gotten used to it, and never considered switching to another cultivation technique.
Now hearing these words, she suddenly realized that Zhao Changzhen was no longer alive, no one was forcing her to cultivate this technique anymore, and her eyes lit up.
But after pondering for a moment, she slightly tilted her head, looking at Lu Chengfeng and asked, "Husband, if I continue to cultivate the 'Golden Thread Jade Robe Skill,' will it help you?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chengfeng felt a little complex in his heart. The very reason he brought it up was because, subconsciously, he hoped Luo Suyi would continue to cultivate, as it was highly beneficial for his Inner Power Cultivation.
After all, Luo Suyi had a special constitution and had cultivated the 'Golden Thread Jade Robe Skill' for over a decade, making her an ideal dual cultivation furnace, saving him countless resources and hard work.
But he also didn't want to force this lovely woman, hence he was leaving the decision up to her.
Unexpectedly, Luo Suyi was thinking entirely of him, which made him feel a tinge of guilt and a bit touched.
"My dear wife, don't worry about me; if you really don't want to continue cultivating, then we will abandon this martial art, and I'll choose an upper-level martial art for you again."
Luo Suyi's face glowed with a bright smile, "Husband, I am your woman, as long as I can help you, I'm willing to do anything."
