Shen Wen's groom's robe had long since been shattered by an invisible force.
His bare upper body was revealed, every line of his well-built muscles on full display.
Although Cao Ying could only see his back, it still made her blush furiously. She had never seen an opposite-sex man's back before.
His muscular body made her throat bob involuntarily.
"Gulp~"
The faint sound of swallowing rang out in the room. For some reason, Cao Ying felt heat spread through her entire body.
Cao Ying lowered her head, wanting to see whether something was wrong with her Dou Qi. After all, she cultivated Fire Attribute Dou Qi.
If something had gone wrong, feeling hot all over would be normal.
Yet no matter how she inspected it with her soul power, she found no problem with her Dou Qi.
At the same time,
Cao Ying occasionally glanced at Shen Wen's sturdy back. Unlike some Alchemists who spent all year immersed in the Alchemy Room,
they only needed their Dou Qi to meet the standards for alchemy, so their physiques tended to be more scholarly and frail.
But Old Monster Lin had extremely high standards for Shen Wen. Aside from demanding exceptional alchemy skills, he also had strict requirements for his Dou Qi.
His expectation for Shen Wen was for him to become the Medicine Emperor.
With his back to Cao Ying, Shen Wen's veins bulged across his face, his handsome features twisted grotesquely.
Fusing with Heavenly Dragon Qi was actually this painful!!
If not for Old Monster Lin's hellish training during his daily Dou Qi Cultivation, which had given him tremendous resistance to pain,
he would have passed out long ago.
The key was that it was not just pain. All sorts of distracting thoughts kept surfacing in his mind.
Dragon Nature existed across all heavens and worlds, didn't it!
It would have been fine if he had something to vent it on, but he could only endure it now.
And yet, a peerless, beautiful young wife was lying right beside him.
They had even formed a Soul Contract.
Whether because of the outward contract or his own inner feelings,
Shen Wen did not want his first intimacy with Cao Ying to be the result of force.
The tangled agony of it all had pushed his rationality to its limit.
After Cao Ying, burning hot all over, had grown accustomed to Shen Wen's back,
she snapped out of her shyness.
She discovered that Shen Wen's muscles were writhing at this moment, every muscle in his body twitching abnormally.
At the same time, pained, low growls continuously escaped Shen Wen's mouth.
Shen Wen's beast-like roar gave Cao Ying a fright and made her realize that something was wrong with his current state!
Her red lips parted slightly as she rose and moved closer to Shen Wen, intending to ask what was wrong.
After all, this guy had given her so many precious things.
It was not as though she was worried about him. At most, this counted as repayment for Shen Wen's extravagant Betrothal Gift.
Besides, Shen Wen was a genius of the Pill Pagoda, and she was a member of the Pill Pagoda too. Naturally, she should show some concern.
But this movement caused her fragrance to drift toward Shen Wen. She asked, "Shen Wen, what's wrong with you?"
The fragrance and her words stirred Shen Wen's already strained nerves.
Immediately, Shen Wen, who had been forcefully suppressing his pain, growled, "Don't talk!!"
No, seriously, girl!
Cao Ying's alluring voice was like adding fuel to the fire for him right now. The more he heard it, the worse he felt.
He felt as if he were about to explode.
"You..."
Cao Ying still wanted to ask Shen Wen what exactly had happened.
"Boom!"
Those successive words, carrying a trace of coquettish charm,
instantly ignited the flames Shen Wen had been holding back.
He abruptly turned his head, his eyes locking onto Cao Ying.
The look in his eyes startled Cao Ying.
Shen Wen's eyes no longer held their previous calmness and teasing amusement. Instead, they were filled with flames, a raging inferno.
It was as if they wanted to lick across her entire body and burn her to ashes. The invisible heat instantly raised her body temperature.
"Shen..."
The next moment,
before Cao Ying could even react, Shen Wen's handsome face crashed toward her, filling her vision.
She instinctively tried to push Shen Wen away.
Then a mixed scent of Medicinal Fragrance and bamboo washed over her.
Something soft and warm pressed against her red lips.
"Mm~"
Cao Ying's eyes widened. Her first kiss was gone?
Damn Shen Wen!!
Cao Ying punched and kicked desperately, trying to push Shen Wen away.
Yet she did not use any Dou Qi.
It was not because she was worried about hurting Shen Wen. If Shen Wen were truly injured, Grandpa Lin would blame her.
She was protecting a genius of the Pill Pagoda too!
"Mm!"
The contact with his scorching breath made Cao Ying's cheeks burn red. Somewhat clumsily, Cao Ying pressed against Shen Wen.
Her fists, which had been pounding Shen Wen, opened into palms and began stroking his back.
Taking a mile after being given an inch!
A trace of wetness calmed Cao Ying's muddled emotions somewhat. Shen Wen actually wanted to capture her tongue.
Cao Ying immediately clenched her teeth tightly, but the next moment,
the moist warmth made Cao Ying's gaze turn hazy...
The next moment,
a slight movement made Cao Ying's face turn pale, her eyes clearing at once.
"Shen Wen."
Cao Ying instantly came to her senses and bit down hard with her teeth.
Shen Wen cried out in pain and instinctively staggered back several steps.
But the heat in his eyes did not weaken because of what had just happened. Instead, it was like hot oil poured onto a blazing fire.
The raging flames continued to burn before Cao Ying could react.
"Riiip~"
The sound of tearing cloth rang out...
Cao Ying could only shout now. She knew Old Monster Lin must be keeping his attention on this place.
"Grandpa Lin! Shen Wen seems to be in trouble!"
He was not spying on them, of course, but he still had to ensure their safety.
Sure enough,
as Cao Ying shouted, Old Monster Lin appeared in the Bridal Chamber, staring gravely at Shen Wen.
"Shen Wen, calm down!"
An invisible wave of soul power pressed down on Shen Wen. The instant impact jolted Shen Wen awake from his pain and desire.
"Master! Take... take me to the training room!"
Shen Wen growled. He had to vent it now, or sooner or later, it would suffocate him to death.
"Alright!"
Old Monster Lin nodded and grabbed Shen Wen, about to leave, when Cao Ying hurriedly said, "Grandpa Lin, I'm coming too..."
"Mm!"
The Dou Qi Training Room Old Monster Lin had specially built for Shen Wen.
"Bang bang bang—!"
"Bang!"
A ceaseless barrage of impacts sounded from inside the training room. The explosive commotion made Old Monster Lin frown slightly. "What happened just now?"
Although his soul power could cover that residence, he could not possibly watch his disciple and daughter-in-law consummate their marriage on their wedding night.
If Cao Ying had not called for him, he would not have appeared.
Listening to the occasional low growls coming from inside, a hint of worry flashed through Cao Ying's eyes. "Shen Wen said he was cultivating, then suddenly became like this."
Cultivating?
Old Monster Lin froze.
Had his disciple gone mad?
Back when he did not have a wife, he was always talking in Old Monster Lin's ear about wanting to marry one. Now that he finally had one,
on his wedding night, with a beauty in his arms, he was telling him he wanted to cultivate?
Could it be that he had pushed him too hard all these years, and Shen Wen no longer liked women?
He glanced at Cao Ying's slightly swollen lips. It did not look like Shen Wen disliked women!
Suddenly became like this?
Several possibilities flashed through Old Monster Lin's mind.
