Chapter 2132: Chapter 783: Seductive Allure, Self-Pity for Beauty, Heart-Linked Poison, Mind and Spirit Connected!
This is an extremely rare scene in the picturesque Baili Qingchuan, where medicinal herbs are scattered everywhere.
He did not conceal his breath, and didn’t even lighten his footsteps, just like that, he approached the stone door.
With his Divine Consciousness, he could naturally penetrate the Array Forbiddance, and see what was inside.
A woman walked to the door, restless with anxiety.
"Open the door!"
Luo Chen said thus.
The woman instinctively raised her hand, but hesitated.
For the first time in so many years, she hesitated at Luo Chen’s command.
"I brought back your brother."
"From now on, Luo Tian Sect will no longer be pushed around."
"I, Luo Chen, am now at the Nascent Soul Realm, enough to stand firm in the Eastern Wasteland Immortal World!"
The woman’s hand, after hearing these words, instead lowered again.
It was as if a burden had been lifted off her shoulders.
Luo Chen frowned slightly and suddenly spoke: "My dear wife has never used her looks to charm others, why now lament your appearance? Do you truly believe your husband is so shallow, only valuing superficial beauty?"
The woman inside the cave was struck heavily, instinctively stepping back a few paces.
Confusion showed in her eyes.
Indeed, from the very start, Sima Huiniang was not renowned for her beauty; she rose step by step from being a Rogue Cultivator to the high position she held now, even attracting admiration from men outside the house, not because of that face.
To now lament and pity herself because of ruined looks was indeed laughable.
It denied her efforts and underestimated her husband’s breadth of mind.
Taking a deep breath, Sima Huiniang cast a Dao Law Method, and the stone door isolating the inside from the outside slowly rose with a rumbling sound.
That person unseen for a hundred years, from feet to body, then to mouth, nose, eyes...
She slightly gathered her sleeves, bowed gracefully, and in her autumn water eyes was filled with joy.
"This humble wife welcomes husband home!"
...
"Back then, when the Spirit Beetle mutated, I thought you...
"It was merely a small mishap, your husband has great fortune and fate, how could I easily fall? But you, knowing the Spirit Beetle was destroyed, still had such faith in me, telling them I was still alive."
"Wanting to keep what’s left of you well guarded, naturally needed to stabilize the morale. But sometimes, telling too many lies, I couldn’t face those who died for the Sect, thus gradually shut myself away."
"Wife, you indeed have quite the cunning mind!"
"Isn’t that learned from you, always being so harmful."
Upon reuniting, warmth flowed, chatting about old affairs.
Only Sima Huiniang’s smile was still somewhat forced.
She looked at the closed-eyed Luo Chen opposite her, lips trembling slightly: "Can it be resolved?"
Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes, and what met his gaze was a face beyond recognition.
The wrist of the woman he held had blister-like indents, as if scalded, uneven.
And underneath those clothes, even more riddled with wounds, terrifying.
Luo Chen pondered deeply.
Indeed, it was caused by his Qi Power!
Back then, in the Land of Fallen Demons during Physical Nirvana, Luo Chen’s Qi Power vanished suddenly due to physical collapse, actually passed to Sima Huiniang via the Spirit Beetle fed from blood and flesh.
This method wasn’t inherently wrong.
The problem was, Luo Chen’s Qi Power was too domineering!
At that time, he was at the Sixth Layer of Golden Core, with Fire Attribute Qi Power, supremely masculine and firm, few could match.
Even he struggled with constant erosion of Qi Power day and night, resulting in a perpetually reddened face, visibly different.
How could the mere Ninth Level Foundation Establishment Sima Huiniang withstand it?
Though the Spirit Beetle aided her in barely accepting this power, she couldn’t suppress it!
She herself had Dual Spirit Roots of Water and Wood, cultivated "Waterfront Pavilion" technique, struggling to control this power.
The Golden Core condensed using Spirit Beetle was not a traditional Golden Core.
Control Power extremely low!
Moreover, not only was Luo Chen’s Magic Power Attribute domineering, but also in quantity.
All along, Luo Chen’s Qi Power was several times that of those at the same Order, during Golden Core Period, even able to rival those at Ninth Layer Golden Core with his Sixth Layer strength!
This directly allowed Sima Huiniang to ascend quickly to the Golden Core Seventh Level Realm in one step.
The large quantity, domineering nature, pierced the Sea of Qi, constantly washing over the body, ultimately causing irreparable damage.
Yet there was one oddity.
If this massive Qi Power were released somehow, she wouldn’t be at a state of the Sea of Qi being full of holes, meridians scorched, body heavily burdened.
This issue resolved instantly as Luo Chen recalled the century of hardship faced by Luo Tian Sect.
Wang Yuan, to safeguard the Sect, took a shortcut, cultivating the Class Demon Change, only seeking to obtain great power.
Min Longyu painstakingly delved into the way of Arrays, leading to excessive mental exhaustion and hair turning white, also seeking stronger power.
Qu Lingjun, with poor talent, could only detour to saving the Sect, joining Fenghua Palace for external power.
Under such circumstances, how could Huiniang, most invested in Luo Tian Sect, willingly discard the powerful Qi Power within her?
Luo Chen unconsciously touched that face.
"You’ve suffered so much."
Sima Huiniang, slightly embarrassed, instinctively turned her head away.
In her ears, she heard a sound that elated her.
"Your bodily issues, your husband can resolve, don’t worry."
"Really?"
Sima Huiniang abruptly turned her head, staring blankly at Luo Chen.
Luo Chen nodded gently, softly ruffling her hair.
"It might hurt a bit, bear with it."
"Mm, I’m not afraid."
Luo Chen smiled slightly, making Sima Huiniang shed all clothing, disregarding the ravaged skin, Divine Consciousness entering within.
