"I...?"
Ji Lingruo emptied soul was replenished, and her lips moved, somewhat incredulous.
"Hmm," Tai Sui replied calmly.
"How can I save him? Tell me quickly! Tell me quickly! I'll give you anything, whether it's my body or my life, as long as you can save my senior brother! Just help me save him!"
Ji Lingruo continued to plead, having forgotten the many pains this evil spirit had brought her. She remained kneeling on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
Tai Sui stared blankly at the girl, its body also secreting that viscous liquid. Suppressing its turbulent State of Mind, it helped Ji Lingruo and calmly said:
"I don't want anything from you, I just want you to save him."
"How... how can we save him?"
"My senior brother is practically dead right now. These black substances can save him, but he can't circulate his meridians on his own. So you need to help him get his blood flowing throughout his body."
"But I don't know how..."
What is the name of your sect?
"The Mandarin Sword Sect ..." Ji Lingruo had also stopped crying, her face blank.
"Full name."
"..." Ji Lingruo while before saying:
"The Heaven-and-Earth Yin-Yang Union Mandarin Sword Sect"
"Besides swordsmanship, what else is your sect good at?"
"Dual cultivation...?"
"That's right. The principle is the same as when your senior brother uses his Mystic Qi to guide yours. But you're too weak. You need to cultivate with your senior brother, using your body to drive the operation of his spiritual platform, until all the blackness is integrated into his body, then he will be completely restored. I think you should know how to cultivate together, right?"
Ji Lingruo knew that although You Su had deliberately omitted the "Human Scroll" from the Joyous Union Technique when he orally explained the Cultivation Method to her, she had already found this Cultivation Method in the library, which she used to prop up the bookshelf. It had greatly shocked her when she was still ignorant about the principles of yin and yang between men and women. As a result, she became more and more engrossed in reading it and eventually memorized it perfectly.
Ji Lingruo into the eyes of the Tai Sui fish. It had deceived her too many times, so she had to examine it with suspicion. But recalling what it had done during the time it had possessed her body, this evil spirit had never intended to harm You Su. On the contrary, it had shown great concern for him.
"You're not still lying to me, are you?"
Tai Sui paused, then said solemnly, "No, I want my senior brother to live even more than you do. And right now, you have no other choice but to trust me."
Ji Lingruo dull eyes regained their light, and she clenched her fists, her resolve unwavering.
"I promise you, I will never show up again after you revive your senior brother, and I will tell you everything."
Ji Lingruo sensed the firmness in the other person's tone. Without replying, she removed her clothes without hesitation. In a moment, a stunningly beautiful body was completely exposed in this sacred hall. In terms of visual beauty alone, her presence here was perfectly incongruous.
Ji Lingruo to climb into the Black Coffin when she felt a strong burning sensation before her hand even touched it. Tai Sui immediately pulled her back.
"You can't touch this coffin directly, you'll die."
"Then, what should we do?" Ji Lingruo panicked again.
"Let me enter your body once more, only I can do so without being rejected by it," Tai Sui said sincerely.
"You liar!" Ji Lingruo glared at him angrily. "I don't know why an evil spirit like you would like my senior brother! You just want to possess my body and then use your consciousness to cultivate with him, don't you!?"
"I... I didn't have such thoughts. I don't even know the method of dual cultivation." Tai Sui's tone became somewhat melancholy. It lowered its six fish eyes and pleaded, "What happened before... was my fault, but please believe me, I would never compete with you for consciousness. You are definitely the one who will cultivate with your senior brother! I really just wanted to help you save him!"
A brief silence fell between them. Ji Lingruo suddenly exhaled, her body no longer tense from guard. Her expression was resolute as she coldly said:
"I'm not as clever as my senior brother; I can't tell which of your words are true and which are false. But I know you've definitely said something wrong."
Tai Sui looked at her with some surprise, not understanding her meaning, Ji Lingruo said firmly, word by word:
"No one wants my senior brother to live more than I do! So, get in here!"
She opened her arms wide, completely unprepared and reckless in embracing him.
She would have no regrets as long as she could save You Su, no matter the consequences.
Tai Sui stared blankly at the girl who, in its eyes, was completely unworthy to be You Su's junior sister. It suddenly understood why You Su, a blind man, could always recognize who his true junior sister was. From the moment the bet between it and the Dream-Eating Ghost was made, it was destined to be the loser.
Without further hesitation, it walked into the girl's arms.
Its body was much larger than Ji Lingruo's, and it was absorbed by the girl and disappeared without a trace the instant it came into contact with her body.
Ji Lingruo prepared to climb back into the coffin. This time, the burning sensation indeed disappeared.
She straddled You Su's waist and abdomen, unable to bear sitting fully on him. She reached out and caressed the horrifying wounds on You Su's body, tears welling up in her eyes once again.
Wiping away her tears, she helped You Su remove all his robes; his strong body was covered in wounds. Ji Lingruo bent down and gently embraced You Su, showing no disgust at the filth and bloodstains on her snow-white body.
She nestled her face against You Su's cheek, and they slept neck to neck. In truth, although You Su had already taken more intimate steps with her under the guise of teaching, this was the first time she had consciously experienced embracing him.
"I regret it so much, sob sob... I should have run away as soon as I saw that lousy sect name... I knew this day would come sooner or later, sob sob!"
The hungry wolf boiled water that day, and it really was just to bathe the lamb. But the kind lamb, discovering that the wolf had already fainted from hunger, actually offered himself up...
Whether she regrets it or not, only she knows the answer.
Ji Lingruo diligently circulated her Qi according to the method in the Human Scroll, and prepared the long sword for You Su.
She gently touched the sword with her delicate hand, nervously accepting it. The moment she made contact, her toes tensed.
Her pretty face showed two parts helplessness, three parts anger, four parts pain, and one part happiness at having her wish fulfilled.
In an instant--
Thick sweat, loose black hair.
The fragrant breeze made me pant, and the pain gradually subsided.
Newly favored, she was delicate and powerless.
Trembling in each other's arms, entwined with infatuation.
The black blood has been exhausted, yet the Fairy remains unruly.
With the Lunar New Year approaching, there are many gatherings. I'll try to add another chapter when I get home tonight if I have time. If not, just pretend I didn't say anything. I'm sorry.
