The hot spring was just the right temperature. Even without circulating the spiritual qi within her body, Su Jiu would not burn her skin.
A layer of uneven pebbles covered the bottom of the hot spring. At first, walking on them felt decidedly strange, but after a while, Su Jiu slowly realized that these were no ordinary pebbles. They were treasures that helped spiritual qi flow through the body's meridians.
Then there was the spring water itself.
Besides its abundant spiritual qi, it also contained a great deal of spirit ore. Cultivators could soak in it not only to cultivate, but also to cleanse their marrow and expel impurities from their bodies. For ordinary people, a single night's soak would restore their skin to the finest condition of their lives. In other words, it also nourished and beautified the skin.
At that moment, Su Jiu began to understand why Silver Snow treasured this hot spring so much.
Silver Snow was a beauty-loving nine-tailed fox to begin with. Presumably, what mattered more to him was its ability to nourish his looks rather than aid his cultivation.
At the thought, Su Jiu could not help chuckling.
A few more peach blossom petals fluttered down, scattering across the spring...
In that moment, Su Jiu felt a peace unlike anything she had ever known.
Time hurried past, and another three days passed in the blink of an eye. Su Jiu's cultivation rose a little further, while Silver Snow remained outside the barrier without leaving.
Unfortunately, peaceful days were always so brief.
On the fourth day, the sky above the Nine-Tailed Tribe suddenly darkened. Silver Snow frowned slightly, an ominous feeling spreading through his heart.
Sure enough, just as he was about to leave, he spotted someone running toward him.
"Help... help!"
A faint cry
