"Now you're cleaned up and the wound is stable. No need for thanks. Next..."
I checked the skin around Liu Yangmei's lower abdomen with my fingers, confirming the poison had not spread from the wound. She showed no reaction, but that was expected.
My gaze shifted to Liu Yangmei's face. Her sweat-drenched features were still tense, but her breathing was steadier than before.
"Thousand Evils Poison, was it? Even the name sounds terrifying. But don't worry, I've already prepared the antidote."
I retrieved a pre-prepared bottle from my Inventory, filled with a murky green liquid.
"Try to drink this if you can. ...You still can't move? Fine, I'll help you swallow it slowly."
I supported Liu Yangmei's neck, tipped the herbal juice carefully between her lips, and waited for each mouthful to go down before giving her more. She swallowed it with a few weak gulps.
After making sure she had taken enough antidote, I eased her back down and watched her breathing for several more minutes.
"...Phew. How do you feel? Does your body seem any better?"
Her eyelids fluttered, but she was still too weak to answer clearly. The medicine wouldn't restore her strength immediately. According to the Original Work, she would need several days before she could move normally again.
I'm treating her side with potions and maintaining her hygiene, so she'll recover faster than in the original work. Until she can answer me herself, all I can do is keep her stable.
I reached for the bottle again.
"Young Lady, you seem to need more herbal tonic."
After helping her drink a little more, I waited beside her until her breathing evened out and her eyes opened to a narrow slit.
Liu Yangmei's erogenous zones: left ear, anus
I was quite surprised to see her erogenous zones. Women with the anus as an erogenous zone are extremely rare.
In my experience, less than 1% of women have an anus as an erogenous zone unless it has been deliberately developed.
"Young Lady," I said, "as I mentioned earlier, you're addicted to an aphrodisiac. But you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Spirit Medicine has stabilized the poison, yet the aphrodisiac still needs to be purged. If you want me to stop, shake your head. If you want my help through dual cultivation, tell me or nod."
After a long pause, Liu Yangmei forced her eyes open and whispered, "Do it." Her trembling fingers closed around my wrist in clear consent.
Activating Sensual Amplification, I leaned down and took Liu Yangmei's hardened nipples into my mouth.
While sucking on her nipples, I caressed her left ear with my right hand and, when she gave another faint nod, stimulated her delicate chrysanthemum-shaped anus with my left.
"..."
Her body writhed. Though weak and barely able to speak, she was clearly responding to the Sensual Amplification and to the choice she had made.
Squelch. Squelch.
Vaginal fluid seeped from her pink pussy.
"Look here, Young Lady. Your body is reacting strongly. If you want me to stop, say so or push me away."
I spread her legs only after she opened them farther for me and brought my mouth to her pussy.
"I'll suck on your pussy to check for any other abnormalities, but only if you're still willing."
Her answer came as a shaky breath and a small nod.
Licking my tongue, I lapped at Liu Yangmei's pussy, even slipping my tongue into her small opening.
"There's no major abnormality, but her pussy is producing an excessive amount of fluids. It must be a potent aphrodisiac. I'll begin the dual-cultivation treatment you agreed to."
I rubbed my stiffly erect cock against her pussy.
The glans slowly slid into the vaginal opening between her labia minora.
"You're very tight, Young Lady. If it hurts too much, tell me and I'll stop."
When I pressed deeper, Liu Yangmei's fingers tightened against my shoulder, then she gave me a faint, deliberate nod.
My cock pushed past the resistance of her hymen and sank deep inside. Liu Yangmei's body convulsed violently.
A thin line of virgin blood streamed down my cock.
"I know this is your first time, Young Lady. If you want me to stop, say it now. Otherwise, I'll keep going and finish the treatment with you."
I fondled her full breasts with both hands, slowly beginning to sway my hips. Her breasts squished obscenely under my touch.
"Young Lady, your pussy must be a legendary treasure. The way it grips is extraordinary. Do you have some kind of press installed in there?"
Her vaginal canal was hot and tight. I had barely moved my hips a few times when I already felt the urge to ejaculate.
"Any other man wouldn't be able to handle your pussy. You're lucky you met me. ...Oh! I'm coming!"
My body trembled as I ejaculated inside Liu Yangmei's pussy. As if waiting for this moment, her pussy pulsed and contracted repeatedly.
"The Young Lady's aphrodisiac hasn't worn off yet, it seems. If you still want my help, we'll continue the treatment."
Squish, squish.
I focused on the sex, swaying my hips rhythmically. At times, when she had the strength, she shifted and guided me into a deeper angle; at others, I supported her body and asked before changing our position.
"Hoo. The Young Lady still shows no signs of fully recovering. Young Lady, if you still want my help, I'll return tonight to continue the treatment."
I left the cave as dawn began to break. Having set up a camera beforehand, I could monitor her remotely.
Hurry up and get dark! Night!
At the Meteor Sword Sect, Seong Dochun, the Lord of the Pill Origin Garden, had vanished, causing a brief stir. However, only a few sect members were assigned to search for him.
Day 3.
As usual, after Liu Yangmei asked me to continue, I was touching Liu Yangmei's body and playing with my cock. Her pussy, which had been tight at first, had become noticeably softer. It would be strange if her vaginal canal hadn't loosened a little after she'd been pulling me into her for hours every night while we worked the poison out of her system.
"Hah... Still, Young Lady's pussy remains remarkably tight."
Even after multiple thrusts, her pussy remained firm and elastic.
Liu Yangmei's condition had also improved significantly. Unlike her initial state, where she would sweat profusely and gasp for breath, she now barely perspired and her breathing was relatively steady.
Of course, if I used Sensual Amplification and thrust deeply, she would quickly start panting again.
Squish, squish.
I was sitting facing her, letting her straddle me as I thrust into her pussy while probing her anus with my fingers, when I suddenly froze in shock.
"Haa... uh..."
Liu Yangmei let out a sound that was somewhere between a moan and a sigh.
Until now, she had only answered me in short whispers, hoarse from weakness.
"Young Lady?"
I withdrew my hand from her anus and stared intently at Liu Yangmei's face.
"Haa... uh..."
Her long eyelashes trembled, a clear sign that she was finally recovering her full strength.
I swallowed hard.
Liu Yangmei was currently at the Three Peaks Stage, Rank 2 of cultivation. If she woke up angry and decided I'd taken too much liberty while treating her, I would instantly depart this world.
It's okay. Yangmei was always going to recover eventually. ...She's just regaining her strength a little sooner than I expected, but that's fine.
I was already prepared.
"Young Lady! You've finally regained full consciousness! Can you see my face clearly?!"
"..."
Liu Yangmei opened her eyes and quietly surveyed her surroundings. Her pupils were a deep black, tinged with a crimson hue like her hair as a result of the special Divine Art she had mastered.
Her gaze met mine before drifting downward.
A young man and woman were embracing, completely naked. Below, their genitals were intimately joined.
Liu Yangmei abruptly raised her right hand, which had been resting on my shoulder. A crimson energy, pulsating like blood, surged from her palm.
"Wait, Young Lady! Calm down! You agreed to this treatment after I explained the poison and the aphrodisiac!"
"...You expect me to believe that?"
Her voice was beautiful, yet it carried a murderous intent as cold as a blizzard.
"The reason you're alive right now is because I saved you! Look! The sword wound on your side has healed completely, leaving no trace!"
Liu Yangmei paused, her left hand touching her smooth side.
"...Just because you saved me doesn't make this any less shameless. But since you saved my life, I'll grant you a painless death."
Before my head could fall, I blurted out urgently, "Sharing qi with you was my only choice! I never forced you!"
"What do you mean?"
"Men wearing bamboo hats used an aphrodisiac on you, Young Lady. By the time I killed them, you were already poisoned. When you finally woke enough to answer me, you agreed to let me help."
"They wouldn't have used an aphrodisiac..."
"They intended to toy with you before killing you. They used the aphrodisiac in case you woke up."
"..."
She looked skeptical.
"Young Lady, I even used Spirit Medicine to save you."
"Spirit Medicine...?"
Liu Yangmei glanced around. The Spirit Medicines I had prepared beforehand were scattered nearby: several Spirit Pills and medicinal herbs radiating Spirit Energy, all enhanced using the Bright Ascension Chart.
"You used Spirit Medicine because of me?"
"Young Lady, your condition was critical. The sword wound on your side and the extreme poison draining your life force... I had no choice but to use the Spirit Medicine I possessed to save you. However, the aphrodisiac couldn't be cured even with Spirit Medicine alone, so I explained the risk and you permitted me to use dual cultivation."
"..."
Liu Yangmei stared intently at me. Despite my nervousness, I didn't avert her gaze. Contrary to her fearsome nickname, "Blood Flower," Liu Yangmei was a woman capable of reason. Though inherently cold-blooded, she wasn't a mindless killer who took lives without cause.
"I am indebted to you," Liu Yangmei said as she rose to her feet.
Squish.
A lewd sound escaped her pussy as my hard cock withdrew.
Liu Yangmei glanced down, her brow furrowing slightly. It wasn't just my stiff cock that bothered her; a copious amount of white semen was dripping from her pussy. But what truly caught her attention was the complete lack of hair her pussy was impeccably clean.
"It was the aphrodisiac," I emphasized again. "Shaving was necessary for the treatment."
"...I won't forget this kindness," Liu Yangmei murmured, changing into the clothes I had laundered for her. The sight of her dressing without removing the semen still inside her stirred me, but now that she was up, sex was out of the question. I dressed beside her.
Before leaving the cave, Liu Yangmei turned to me.
"You. What's your name?"
"Sung Yujin of the Meteor Sword Sect."
"I will repay this debt someday. My name is..."
"I know. You're Liu Yangmei, the Blood Flower of Hegemonic Blood City, aren't you? Don't worry. My lips are sealed. I won't breathe a word of what happened today to anyone. If you wish... even though it was to save your life, I'll take responsibility for being your first partner."
I said this with a resolute expression, though it was a complete lie. If she demanded marriage as responsibility, I might consider it, but if she demanded my life, I'd fight tooth and nail.
"It's fine. Just forget about it. It's hard now, but... I will repay the debt of saving my life, no matter what."
With those words, Liu Yangmei hurried away.
She must be incredibly busy right now. Hegemonic Blood City, her true home, is currently a cauldron of chaos.
If things follow the original work, we won't meet again for decades.
A few decades is fine. I can use Automatic Progression to fast-forward through time in an instant if I wish.
When we meet again, I'll openly claim her as mine.
The atmosphere within the Meteor Sword Sect was at its worst.
One day, the severed heads of Spirit Hound and Seong Dochun were discovered in the pavilion where Seong Godan resided.
Seong Godan and the Elders raised their voices, demanding the culprit be found at all costs, and even began suspecting rival sects in other regions.
War might break out.
Rumors of war circulated throughout the sect, and everyone moved with tense urgency.
I scoffed at the rumors.
War? Seong Godan is too busy trying to survive to wage war. This is just a show. In a few months, everything will be peaceful again, as if nothing ever happened.
I mentally mocked Seong Godan and returned to reality.
Game Over.
Calculating experience points.
Seong Jigun's affinity level is 4.
Seong Sojeong's affinity level is 2.
Liu Yangmei's affinity level is 2.
Level up!
The first thing I did upon returning to reality was take the enhanced Body Strengthening Pill I had brought back from the Bright Ascension Chart world.
Body Strengthening Pill consumed.
Strength +2, Vitality +1, Agility +2.
Subsequent consumption of Body Strengthening Pills will not further increase stats.
Considering that the Body Strengthening Pill's effects are diminished in the Game World, I believe my physical abilities have increased significantly.
Sung Yujin
Level: 47
Strength: 32 Stamina: 31 Agility: 30 Intelligence: 25 Vitality: 35 Mana: 30
Available Points: 37
"I should save these Points for now. Given the dangers of the Demonic Heavenly Art, it's best to prioritize increasing my Mental Resistance first."
Afterward, I entered the world of Plum Blossom Sword Saint, a shortened name for "Plum Blossom Sword Saint, the Plum Blossom Sword Saint Reincarnated into the Count's Household."
The first thing I saw was a silver-haired maid. She was pouring black tea from a teapot into a teacup on the table.
Our eyes met.
Yuria smiled brightly at me.
"Welcome back, Master."
