For Hu Yuanyuan, the next few days were unforgettable nights. Li Feng, under the pretext of teaching her acupoints, took full advantage of her body, leaving her mortified with shame.
Fortunately, Li Feng did not forget his purpose. While fondling her and instructing her on the acupoints, in three days’ time, Hu Yuanyuan had memorised all one hundred and eight major acupoints and three hundred and sixty minor acupoints across her body.
At the same time, Li Feng prepared medicinal baths for her, allowing her to cleanse her marrow and refine her essence through the baths and acupuncture.
Li Feng had no intention of teaching her the Mysterious Heaven Body Refining Technique. Although the Mysterious Heaven Body Refining Technique was an excellent body refining method, cultivating it was far too agonising, even for him, let alone for Hu Yuanyuan.
Right now, Li Feng had no better body refining methods in hand, so he could only let Hu Yuanyuan cultivate true qi. If she had any deficiencies in cultivation later on, they could only be compensated with heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
The three days of marrow cleansing transformed Hu Yuanyuan completely. She felt much lighter, and her skin became even whiter and finer than any cosmetic could achieve.
It was precisely this transformation from the marrow cleansing that allowed Hu Yuanyuan to persevere over these few days. Despite Li Feng occasionally taking liberties with her body, she still diligently memorised the acupoints.
On the fourth day, after pulling Hu Yuanyuan into the room, Li Feng said gravely, “Yuanyuan, you have already memorised the body’s acupoints clearly. Next comes true cultivation. Are you sure you want to take a look at the Snow Jade Art first?”
“Mm.” Hu Yuanyuan nodded.
“Very well. If anything feels wrong, you must abandon it immediately.” Li Feng said with a solemn expression as he produced the Snow Jade Art. This was a technique that had nearly driven him to qi deviation just from reading it. He had no idea what would happen when Hu Yuanyuan looked at it, so he dared not be the least bit negligent.
“Do not worry. I know my limits.” Seeing Li Feng’s concerned look, Hu Yuanyuan smiled faintly. The three days of intimate contact had brought their relationship a step further. Apart from that final barrier, they were no different from a true married couple. Before Li Feng, Hu Yuanyuan no longer had that icy, frosty demeanour.
Li Feng handed the Snow Jade Art to Hu Yuanyuan, then watched her with a heavy expression. The moment he detected any issue, he would intervene without hesitation.
Hu Yuanyuan unfolded the Snow Jade Art and began to read.
Time passed second by second, and each moment felt extraordinarily long to Li Feng. Even during his great battle with Cai Die, he had not felt this exhausted.
As Hu Yuanyuan read the Snow Jade Art, her expression kept changing: surprise, shock, astonishment, bewilderment…
Each shift in Hu Yuanyuan’s face filled Li Feng with tension. If not for his long years of cultivation and keen perception, he might have interrupted her by now. It was only because Li Feng sensed through his divine sense that Hu Yuanyuan’s aura remained stable.
An hour passed, two hours passed, yet Hu Yuanyuan showed no reaction. Li Feng was anxious beyond measure but dared not interrupt her.
Li Feng could not understand why Hu Yuanyuan was taking so long to read the Snow Jade Art, which consisted of only a few characters. If not for her stable aura and the joyful expression now appearing on her face, he truly would not have been able to hold back.
Finally, after five hours, just as Li Feng could no longer restrain himself and was about to act, Hu Yuanyuan opened her eyes, a sharp glint flashing in them.
“Yuanyuan, how are you?” Li Feng asked with concern.
“Who are you?” Hu Yuanyuan looked at Li Feng with a blank expression.
“Yuanyuan, what is wrong? You do not even remember who I am?” Li Feng’s expression changed drastically. Had Hu Yuanyuan suffered qi deviation?
“I do not remember. Who are you? Why are you in front of me?” Hu Yuanyuan looked at Li Feng warily and said, “You are not some thug, are you?”
“Yuanyuan, do not scare me. I am Li Feng!” Li Feng was terrified. If Hu Yuanyuan had truly suffered qi deviation, it would be a loss not worth the gain. He should never have let her read the Snow Jade Art. After all, it was not as if he lacked other cultivation methods.
“Who is Li Feng? Leave now, or I will beat you.” With that, Hu Yuanyuan swung her fist fiercely, then burst into giggles with a “pfft”.
“Ah, you actually tricked me.” Li Feng then realised and pounced towards Hu Yuanyuan.
“Seeing how worried you were, I will let you off… ah, no, do not… Li Feng, let go. I, I will not dare again…”
“Do not worry. For making me so anxious, if I do not give you a proper thrashing today, my name is not Li Feng.”
“You are called Li Feng anyway. Ouch, no…”
“Begging for mercy now? Too late. Today, I must reassert my authority as husband.”
“No, I will not dare again.”
The two frolicked for a while before Li Feng held Hu Yuanyuan as they lay on the bed, panting as he asked, “Yuanyuan, what exactly is the Snow Jade Art like?”
“The Snow Jade Art is a technique cultivated by the Snow Women of the Heavenly Mountains. It is only suitable for those with the Snow Jade Body, and I happen to possess the Snow Jade Body.” Hu Yuanyuan replied.
With Hu Yuanyuan’s explanation, Li Feng finally understood what kind of technique the Snow Jade Art was. According to her, the Snow Jade Art could only be viewed by those with the Snow Jade physique. This technique was practically tailor-made for Hu Yuanyuan.
The Snow Jade physique, one of the special physiques that martial artists dreamed of. Such special physiques were one in ten thousand. Li Feng had never expected Hu Yuanyuan to have a legendary special physique.
In cultivation, the four essentials were wealth, land, method, and companion, none dispensable. But beyond that, innate talent and aptitude were crucial. Those with superior talent cultivated several times, even dozens of times faster than those with average aptitude. Legendary special physiques cultivated at an even more astonishing speed.
Li Feng’s physique was only middling to upper tier, not a legendary special one. Thus, even cultivating the Nine Heavens Heart Scripture, his speed was not much faster than ordinary people. In his previous life, after cultivating for so many years, he had never seen any special physiques, so he had always believed such people simply did not exist.
But he never imagined Hu Yuanyuan would have a legendary special physique. He did not know how the Snow Jade physique worked, but since the Snow Jade Art was custom-made for it, clearly, the Snow Jade physique was no ordinary thing. And the Snow Jade Art itself was a type of special technique.
Li Feng inwardly rejoiced. If not for Hu Yuanyuan insisting on trying it, he certainly would not have let her read the Snow Jade Art. Then, even if she cultivated other methods, without one matching her physique, it would have been a waste of her excellent constitution.
“Yuanyuan, I never expected you to have the Snow Jade Body. Though I do not know how this physique aids your cultivation, I believe cultivating the Snow Jade Art with it will yield twice the results with half the effort. You must cultivate diligently from now on.” Li Feng said earnestly. What he worried about now was that Hu Yuanyuan might lose interest after a few minutes. Even with the best physique, without persistence, there would be no achievements in cultivation.
Hu Yuanyuan nodded. While reading the Snow Jade Art earlier, she had already learned the benefits of martial cultivation. Even without Li Feng saying so, she would not give up midway.
After discussing cultivation matters, Hu Yuanyuan sat up and said, “Li Feng, I am going back to my room.”
Li Feng glanced at the time and said, “It will be dawn in another hour or two. Just sleep here.” With that, Li Feng wrapped his arm around Hu Yuanyuan’s waist.
“I do not want to.” Hu Yuanyuan shook her head. These past few days, she had spent most nights in Li Feng’s room, which already embarrassed her greatly. Spending the night here was something she simply could not bear.
“What, afraid I will eat you?” Li Feng smiled and rested his head on Hu Yuanyuan’s shoulder.
“Yes.” Hu Yuanyuan nodded.
“Then I will eat you now.” Li Feng flipped over and pinned Hu Yuanyuan to the bed.
“Ah, no…”
