Qian Renxue smiled and stood up.
As if nothing had happened, she patted the shallow shoe print on her chest.
It wasn't that Qian Ren Jue had deliberately kicked her;
he just wanted to push her away, and using only his hands wasn't quite enough.
"Ah-jie, you should drink some water too."
Qian Ren Jue wiped the corner of his mouth,
picked up a teacup, and handed it to Qian Renxue, who had just come close to him.
"Mm."
Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed, but took the warm tea in her hand.
Qian Ren Jue's expression was slightly sheepish.
Smiling, he said, "Ah-jie, we should rest and recover first before taking the Ice Flame Body Refining Pill."
"Alright."
Qian Renxue nodded in agreement.
It was best to prepare thoroughly when dealing with something unknown.
…
At noon, everyone gathered around the campfire, eating simple herbal meat soup and some roasted meat.
At this moment, Du Gu Xin had regained the ability to move.
He watched Du Gu Yan, who was serving Qian Ren Jue, with some concern.
He didn't show any ungrateful attitude.
"By the way, Jue, when do you plan to go back? Mom has been urging a few times."
Qian Renxue handed Qian Ren Jue a skewer of porcupine meat.
Her eyes carried some teasing and reluctance.
"Uh."
Qian Ren Jue took the skewer.
Thinking that returning might mean Bi Bidong could torment him, he felt a headache coming on.
He smiled helplessly and replied,"After finishing the Body Refining and Soul Hunting, it should be about time to go back."
"Oh, right!"
Before the words fell, Qian Ren Jue remembered the Ye family.
He couldn't help but remind Qian Renxue,"Ah-jie, don't forget what you promised me. Before we go back, I want to see her first."
"Don't worry, I'll arrange it."
Qian Renxue smiled, though a trace of melancholy lingered in her heart.
It had been rare to hold Qian Ren Jue for several days.
Now he was leaving so soon, she would lose sleep again in Tian Dou City.
She lifted her gaze to Qian Ren Jue's handsome face, still bearing teeth marks.
Unable to resist, she chuckled and stuffed some meat into his mouth.
"Eat more. If you get too thin, Mom will blame me for not taking care of you."
"Uh~ Th-thank you, Ah-jie."
"Pfft haha."
Watching Qian Ren Jue's cheeks fill up made Qian Renxue laugh.
Ling Yuan pressed her red lips together, smiling lightly.
The others—Porcupine, Snake Spear, and a few more—kept their heads lowered, afraid to laugh or look around.
"Your Highness, drink some soup."
Du Gu Yan bit her bowl, holding back a laugh.
Catching Qian Ren Jue's gaze, she carefully offered the bowl.
Qian Ren Jue didn't refuse, stretching out his neck.
Du Gu Yan carefully poured the soup, feeling a little shy since it was her bowl.
"Gulp~ Thank you."
Qian Ren Jue tilted his head back, adjusting his breathing.
Du Gu Yan pinched her sleeve and wiped the corner of his mouth, reminding him,"Yan Yan is your Highness's maid."
"..."
Hearing her voice, Du Gu Xin bit his roasted meat, feeling a bit distressed.
Du Gu Bo was experienced and cunning.
After a few days of interaction, he already understood Qian Ren Jue's temperament.
Having Yan Yan follow him wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
But what Qian Ren Jue said next made him extremely anxious.
"What?!"
"Your Highness, Miss Xue, you… you're going to jump into that spring?"
Du Gu Bo stared at Qian Ren Jue in disbelief.
He had stayed here the longest and knew the spring very well.
Even approaching it with their cultivation levels would be difficult.
He immediately warned them,"Your Highness, Miss Xue, the power of that spring is far too great, even I—"
Before Du Gu Bo could finish,
Qian Ren Jue smiled and reassured him,"Senior Du Gu, don't worry. I'm not going to risk my life recklessly."
Du Gu Bo was momentarily speechless.
His worry was that if something happened to Qian Ren Jue, he would have to follow along with his entire group.
Porcupine whispered to Qian Renxue,"Miss… do you want to reconsider?"
Qian Ren Jue smiled and suggested,"Ah-jie, I can go down first to try."
"That won't do!"
Qian Renxue immediately opposed.
How could she let Qian Ren Jue sweep the path for her? If anyone should try first, it should be the elder sister.
Moreover, according to Qian Ren Jue, she already understood the effect.
Tang San's Millennium Fourth Ring and Fire-Ice Dual Immunity were likely closely related to this Ice-Fire Body Refining.
She had never felt inferior to anyone.
As for Qian Ren Jue, no other man could compare to him in her heart.
After a brief pause,
Qian Renxue smiled confidently and took Qian Ren Jue's hand.
"Jue, let's jump together."
"Alright!"
Qian Ren Jue nodded with a smile.
With the Xiangsi Duanchang Red in place, he had absolute confidence.
The two masters agreed.
Snake Spear and the others said nothing, simply obeying.
…
Mist swirled around.
Qian Renxue and Qian Ren Jue stood on opposite sides of the Ice-Fire Two Extremes' eyes.
Qian Renxue faced the milky-white spring, chilling cold.
Qian Ren Jue faced the fiery red spring, heat waves rolling.
After securing Soul Guidance Devices and jewelry,
the siblings exchanged a glance and slightly nodded, simultaneously taking out the Ice Flame Body Refining Pill.
Though the two Immortal Herbs were toxic, once countered, their previous overwhelming power was gone.
Placing them in their mouths, saliva flowed, and the fragrance spread.
They melted into liquid, flowing down the throat.
Within a few breaths, Qian Renxue and Qian Ren Jue's bodies trembled almost simultaneously.
Ice-blue and crimson-red alternated across their bodies, looking extremely strange.
"Ugh!"
Qian Ren Jue, inexperienced in combat, had never endured such pain.
The alternating ice and fire nearly overwhelmed him.
Qian Renxue bit her teeth, watching Qian Ren Jue's slightly twisted face, worried.
"Ah-jie, I… I'm fine."
Qian Ren Jue's voice trembled, exhaling cold air, while his nose burned from heat.
He placed the Xiangsi Duanchang Red into his mouth, barely keeping control over his body.
He took a deep breath and staggered forward.
Plop!
Qian Ren Jue disappeared from the shore, instantly sinking into the spring.
Qian Renxue followed closely.
They landed very close to each other.
The spring water in the Ice-Fire Two Extremes' eyes churned briefly as they fell.
Before long, the water calmed again,
the milky white and crimson red still sharply divided.
Snake Spear and the others watched from afar, their eyes filled with worry.
These two little treasures were their lives!
Though the two Immortal Herbs' powers were somewhat balanced, once in their bodies,
the herbs stirred violently.
The medicinal power of Immortal Herbs was terrifying.
With ice and fire opposing each other, the sudden energy impact made Qian Ren Jue's consciousness blur.
Fortunately, the Xiangsi Duanchang Red in his mouth slowly refined, keeping him partially lucid.
He could feel it:
his body seemed nestled in a delicate, soft embrace.
A clear heartbeat sounded in his ears.
Qian Renxue held Qian Ren Jue tightly, her face showing some pain.
Floating face-to-face in the spring,
their bodies still shimmered with red and blue, then alternated left-red/right-blue, left-blue/right-red.
The two forces continuously alternated.
Whenever their bodies were torn apart by a violent force, another force repaired the flesh.
Over and over.
Blood began to boil, red and blue forces coursing through the body.
Through the meridians, finally converging at the heart!
Thump thump thump!
At the convergence of the Cold Extreme Yin Spring and Blazing Yang Spring,
Qian Renxue and Qian Ren Jue embraced, foreheads touching.
As the Xiangsi Duanchang Red was gradually absorbed, their heartbeats began to synchronize.
Yin-cold and blazing heat began to converge,
the body seemed to melt and be reforged.
