Ren Tingting, Who Is Unlike Any Other!

Bang!

In Fei Luo's small courtyard, the sound of the door closing echoed as the two entered the house.

Looking at the simple furniture in Fei Luo's home—though humble, it was spotless and neatly arranged—Ren Tingting's eyes revealed a hint of curiosity.

What a tidy little room!

I never expected him to be truly consistent inside and out; such a man is rare indeed.

Ren Tingting, though tipsy, had sobered up a bit by now. Seeing that there was only one bed, which was barely wide enough, her face instantly flushed red.

What happens next? Are we going to do something?

Ren Tingting's cheeks burned, her breathing grew shallow, and she subconsciously glanced back at Fei Luo.

At that look, her eyes widened.

Fei Luo was currently pouring hot water and breaking a strange-looking pill into two halves, dissolving one of them into the water.

"Miss Ren, if you wish to cultivate the Dao, you must first cleanse your marrow and change your constitution. A mortal body is full of impurities; cleansing the marrow is like building the foundation of a house—it is the first step of cultivation."

Fei Luo's calm voice rang out as he walked over, carrying the bowl of dissolved medicine.

Ren Tingting stood by the bed, her heart filled with disbelief.

I've already thrown myself at him; by my logic, even if Fei Luo were a gentleman, now that our relationship is confirmed, shouldn't he be acting like a starving wolf and doing something with me?

Ren Tingting was a woman of the new era and well-educated; she naturally knew about the affairs between men and women.

Yet, to her surprise, Fei Luo was talking to her about Daoist cultivation with a straight face.

It's late at night—couldn't this talk of cultivation wait until tomorrow?

Even just chatting with me would have been fine!

Though shy, Ren Tingting knew she was a lady and should have some sense of propriety. She had kept herself pure for so many years, and now that she had finally met her ideal partner, weren't these things bound to happen sooner or later?

"Um," Ren Tingting's voice was barely audible, "Fei Luo, you can just call me Tingting."

"Alright, good girl Tingting, drink the medicine first, and I will assist you in cleansing your marrow." Fei Luo flashed a row of white teeth, his face wearing an innocent, harmless smile.

"Is this bitter?"

"Not bitter, it's quite sweet."

Gulp.

Ren Tingting ultimately chose to trust Fei Luo and tilted her head back to drink the medicinal water.

Instantly, a sensation of sweetness flooded her mouth, followed by a burning heat throughout her body, as if ants were crawling under her skin. Her face twisted in discomfort.

"Hold on, it will be over soon."

Seeing the pain on Ren Tingting's face, Fei Luo reached out and tapped several vital acupuncture points on her body.

Under Fei Luo's adjustment, Ren Tingting felt much more comfortable. She sat cross-legged on the bed, and as she did so, her qipao shifted, revealing quite a bit of scenery.

But Fei Luo paid no mind to such things; he was nervously watching the changes in Ren Tingting's body.

Ren Tingting had never cultivated before, so she should have consumed the Marrow Cleansing Pill slowly. However, Fei Luo knew the Ren family lineage had a special constitution, so he had used half a pill directly.

Before long, black substances began to seep from the pores on Ren Tingting's skin, though only a small amount.

"Hmm?" Fei Luo was greatly surprised to see this.

Half a Marrow Cleansing Pill only had a minor effect?

Then, she shall have more.

That night, Ren Tingting only felt that her body was filled with strange sensations, as if some indescribable transformation was taking place within her.

In her daze, she only remembered Fei Luo making her drink another half-bowl of the medicinal liquid, followed by several other strange things.

The night passed in silence.

It wasn't until the eastern sky turned a pale, fish-belly white that Fei Luo slowly let out a breath.

"What kind of constitution is this Yin Body? It actually took four whole Marrow Cleansing Pills to complete the transformation?" Fei Luo whispered, looking at Ren Tingting, who had turned into a "black person," with eyes full of shock.

He was special enough himself, requiring seven pills rewarded by the system to complete his own transformation.

Yet, Uncle Nine, Wencai, Qiusheng, and others only needed one; an ordinary person only needs one to be reborn and cleanse their marrow.

But Ren Tingting had refined the medicinal power of four pills in a single night?

This was simply mind-boggling.

"Fei Luo, Fei Luo, what happened to me..." Ren Tingting woke up faintly at this moment. Seeing her body covered in black scabs, she cried out in alarm.

Ren Tingting was very clean; when had she ever encountered such a thing?

What was this black, foul-smelling substance covering her?

It was as nauseating as the bad breath of someone who never brushed their teeth.

She only vaguely remembered Fei Luo doing strange things to her; after he tapped a few points on her body, she had fallen into a daze, as if she had drifted off to sleep, knowing nothing else.

"These are the impurities expelled after the marrow-cleansing process; they are the filth accumulated from your years as a mortal, tainted by the dust of the world." A calm voice rang out. Ren Tingting turned back to see Fei Luo sitting upright behind her.

The fine beads of sweat on Fei Luo's forehead warmed Ren Tingting's heart.

Being observant, she immediately understood that Fei Luo had been guarding her throughout the entire night.

"Oh my, it stinks! I need a bath." Feeling the scabs all over her body, Ren Tingting said, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Over there, the hot water is already prepared. Go ahead and wash up," Fei Luo said, pointing to a small room in the house covered by a curtain.

Seeing the steam rising from the large wooden tub, Ren Tingting felt a warmth in her heart as she stood up and headed toward the washroom.

The sound of splashing water began.

The curtain only covered half the doorway, and a pair of slender, jade-like legs were faintly visible, yet this did not affect Fei Luo in the slightest.

Having accepted this spirited girl, Fei Luo, as a transmigrator, understood the principle of accepting things with composure.

Moreover, in terms of appearance and background, there seemed to be nothing amiss with Ren Tingting.

"Fei Luo, I don't have any clothes to wear."

A while later, the sun was fully suspended in the sky.

Fei Luo couldn't help but smile as he looked at Ren Tingting, who was wearing his shirt and shorts.

At this moment, Fei Luo felt as if all of this were a dream. Before he transmigrated, he never would have imagined that he would spend an entire night cleansing the marrow of a great beauty while sharing a room with her.

This actually had to do with Fei Luo's Dao heart.

After practicing the Dao, as one's cultivation advances, it is an evolution of life level and genes, granting one better control over the seven emotions and six desires.

"Tingting, you should head back for a few days; I need to go into seclusion," Fei Luo said, looking at Ren Tingting. After teaching her the simple Qi Guiding Art, he began to see her out.

Fei Luo wanted to study exactly what was going on with his cultivation realm.

Furthermore, the Mountain-Overturning Curse and the Earth-Shaking Curse caused quite a commotion when practiced and cast, making this place unsuitable.

"Alright, Fei Luo, I will definitely practice hard," Ren Tingting said softly, her attitude toward Fei Luo having changed drastically.

Watching Ren Tingting's departing figure, Fei Luo smiled wryly, "This girl, I wonder if she will continue to bring me surprises."

Without a sound, Fei Luo stood up and went to the Justice Manor. After giving Uncle Nine a few instructions, he headed toward South Mountain.
