A total of seven extractions throughout the night, only ending when the sky began to whiten at dawn.
Deng Tianyu, having just tasted carnal pleasure, was more ferocious each time. Even though Ning Wan’s cultivation far surpassed his, she was fucked until she could barely endure and moaned pitifully for mercy.
Towards the end, he practically wished he could stuff both of his balls into his Shizun’s tender slit. If not for the seven-time limit, he felt he could have kept going for another night.
Finally, the two bathed once more, and only then did they fall asleep in each other’s arms.
This single sleep lasted an entire day.
During that time, though Qing’er and Ling’er were somewhat curious, they didn’t disturb them.
They guessed that the Madam had over-exerted herself while guiding and refining the Baleful Yang Energy and needed rest to recuperate.
What Qing’er and Ling’er didn’t know was this:
Deng Tianyu was indeed somewhat drained, but it wasn’t because of guiding and refining Yin Sha. It was because of his Shizun, Ning Wan.
In the room, master and disciple held each other tightly, spending the whole day just like that.
At dusk, Deng Tianyu and Ning Wan awoke. They didn’t say much, simply quietly savoring this moment of warmth.
…
It wasn’t until the morning of the third day that Deng Tianyu opened his eyes.
He glanced beside the pillow and found that Shizun Ning Wan was gone, leaving only faint, lingering traces of her fragrance.
“The Filial Piety Water Drops have increased quite a bit. The harvest from this filial service was acceptable.”
As Deng Tianyu washed up, he sensed the changes in the Filial Piety Pool.
At this moment, in Orchid Pavilion…
Little Fox Yingying and Ling’er had long assumed their poses, sitting upright and proper, waiting to enjoy breakfast.
“Yingying!”
When plates of fragrant, richly scented dishes were served, the eyes of both the girl and the fox immediately lit up like stars at night, sparkling with crystalline light.
“It smells so good!”
Ling’er had already tasted dishes cooked by Deng Tianyu and had long been conquered by his superb, exquisite culinary skills.
Of course, that went without saying for the little fox, who’d understood this point back in the Purple Cloud Sect.
Moreover, the dishes on the stone table weren’t ordinary food; they were all cooked from spiritual ingredients. The fragrance they exuded was exceptionally tempting.
Naturally, both girl and fox were still very well-behaved and didn’t start first, solely because the Madam hadn’t arrived yet.
Not long after, Qing’er returned to Orchid Pavilion, a look of slight worry on her face:
“The Madam says she has no appetite for now.”
“No appetite?” Deng Tianyu was taken aback.
Only then did he learn from Qing’er:
Ever since the accident of tender affection two days ago, Aunt Rong hadn’t left her boudoir for a full day, clearly unsure how to face him.
“You two go ahead and eat first.”
“I’ll go make some congee and bring it to Aunt Rong.”
Deng Tianyu pondered briefly, then headed towards the kitchen.
Watching his departing figure, Qing’er said with a hint of envy:
“Sir Deng is so gentle and caring towards the Madam. No wonder the Madam cherishes him so much.”
To be fair, any elder blessed with such a filial and thoughtful younger generation would consider it a blessing.
Especially since Sir Deng came to Xiaoxiang Elegant Garden.
Even the three daily meals were all personally made by him, just so the Madam could taste the flavor of home.
Of course, the Madam also treated Sir Deng as her own.
She not only personally made pastries he liked but also spent an entire night arranging a guest room, all to make this younger one stay more comfortably.
In any case: Sir Deng was filial to his elder, and the Madam doted on her younger one.
“Qing’er, if you don’t start eating, Yingying is going to eat your share!”
Suddenly, a muffled, gruff voice came from beside her ear, interrupting Qing’er’s thoughts.
Hearing this, Qing’er’s expression changed immediately. She quickly picked up her chopsticks.
She knew very well that when eating with this human-fox pair, if you weren’t quick, you’d simply have nothing left to eat!
On the other side, boosted by his True Essence, Deng Tianyu had cooked a pot of Lotus Seed and Lily Congee. This congee could nourish Yin and moisten the lungs, calm the heart and focus the spirit, and dispel restlessness and dryness!
Thump! Thump!
The door was knocked. Seated at her desk, looking at the Stone Album and carvings but with unfocused eyes, Qu Qirong came back to herself: “Qing’er, I have no appetite. You all don’t need to wait for me.”
“Aunt Rong, it’s me.”
A familiar, gentle voice came through, making Qu Qirong’s delicate body tremble. The intimate, suggestive image from before once again surfaced in her mind. She nearly said she wasn’t in her room.
But no matter what, she was his aunt, an elder. Plus, the previous accident was partly her fault. If she kept avoiding him, it wasn’t a solution.
Like before, just pretend it never happened!
“Tianyu, wait a moment!”
Making up her mind, Qu Qirong took a deep breath, suppressing the shyness in her heart. Adopting the dignified composure of an elder, she moved with light, lotus-like steps and slowly opened the door.
Deng Tianyu smiled slightly and spoke: “Aunt Rong, I’ve made some Lotus Seed and Lily Congee for you. Please have some!”
He was also someone who had experienced social humiliation and naturally knew how to handle the awkwardness afterward.
Besides, as for what happened two days ago… As long as both of them had an unspoken understanding, how could it be counted as social death?
“Tianyu is very thoughtful!”
Watching Deng Tianyu ladle the Lotus Seed and Lily Congee for her, Qu Qirong felt a warmth in her heart. That uncomfortable, unusual emotion gradually eased.
While accompanying Aunt Rong as she drank the congee, Deng Tianyu seemed to remember something and spoke:
“Aunt Rong, didn’t you mention wanting to visit West Rime Lake to see the beautiful sight of the Flying Cod dancing in the air?”
“Since we’re free these next few days, and the snow isn’t heavy, why don’t we go take a look tomorrow?”
Aunt Rong had previously told him she wanted to go to West Rime Lake, west of Xuan City, during Mysterious Winter.
That was the time to see the magnificent sight of thousands of Flying Cod leaping from the lake.
Although Aunt Rong had only casually mentioned it, the filial Deng Tianyu had remembered.
Qu Qirong parted her red lips slightly and elegantly took a sip of the Lotus Seed and Lily Congee: “Then tomorrow it is!”
Since arriving in Xuan City, she had felt some longing for West Rime Lake.
But she had been busy with the trade route disputes, plus her identity was sensitive, making travel inconvenient, so it had been delayed.
Now, with her Tianyu accompanying her, that would be wonderful indeed.
“By the way, Aunt Rong!”
“The restriction sealing the Sleep-Sealing Curse Mark in your body will break in less than half a year.”
“So, we must use this period to guide out the Baleful Yang Energy as quickly as possible.”
Deng Tianyu’s expression was serious, his tone extremely solemn.
Although this matter was somewhat awkward, for Aunt Rong’s safety, he still had to bring it up.
A faint red tinged Qu Qirong’s jade-like face: “In Tianyu’s opinion, how should we proceed most appropriately and effectively?”
“Two days ago, we attempted to refine it once, but the Baleful Yang Energy within the Sleep-Sealing Curse Mark is far too dense. What we removed was likely just a drop in the bucket.”
Deng Tianyu smiled wryly and shared his thoughts:
“If we want to completely resolve it, at the rate we progressed two days ago, we probably won’t have enough time.”
With his Yin-Yang Art, he could perceive the density of the Baleful Yang Energy contained within the Sleep-Sealing Curse Mark.
Comparing it to the amount of Baleful Yang Energy guided out two days ago, he understood clearly that continuing like this would certainly be insufficient.
Moreover, the sealing restriction breaking in half a year was just an estimate.
Who knew if it might shatter ten days or half a month early?
Qu Qirong also knew the severity of the matter. Her dark brows furrowed: “What does Tianyu suggest?”
“If possible, we should guide and refine it once every other day, and each session should last no less than one hour.”
“At this rate of progress, we can completely eradicate the Baleful Yang Energy within the Sleep-Sealing Curse Mark before the half-year mark.”
Deng Tianyu pondered for a moment before giving a specific plan.
Guiding and refining for one hour each day was already the limit. Any more would be too much, not just for his Sword Intent’s endurance, but Aunt Rong wouldn’t be able to withstand it either.
Furthermore, the process of guiding and refining consumed an immense amount of mental energy, hence needing a full day’s rest after each session.
“Tianyu is truly working so hard!”
Qu Qirong recalled how Deng Tianyu looked when helping her guide and refine. Her heart immediately ached with distress.
She knew that in such moments, even a split second of distraction could lead to an irreversible outcome.
But what about Deng Tianyu?
Even facing such a suggestive scene, he had to maintain absolute mental calm and focus.
Just like two days ago, to avoid being swayed by lust, he hadn’t hesitated to bite his tongue, using pain to keep himself clear-headed.
If Tianyu had gone to such lengths, how could she not set aside her feminine reservations?
Having thought this through, Qu Qirong’s heart trembled. The flush on her cheeks grew even more beautiful: “Today’s refining session hasn’t been done yet. I’ll be troubling Tianyu in a while!”
