Chapter 26.4

Xiao Yu-shixiong, What Do You Think? (4)

Ji Qingzhou’s divine sense was pitifully crowded in the corner. Today, Shen Rongyu’s vital energy approached hers. Her divine sense was in a terrific state. It seemed to sense all the sensations that belonged to the human body, yet it had no entity.

Shen Rongyu’s vital energy was bright red, seemingly like swimming snakes surging towards her. Ji Qingzhou wanted to hide, but he enveloped her.

Perhaps the word ‘enveloped’ was inappropriate speaking of the divine sense, but Ji Qingzhou felt that Shen Rongyu hugged her wholly, and the hug was so tight that she couldn’t break free.

She didn’t know that in their cultivation space, only she stayed awake, and the vital energy belonging to Shen Rongyu was only driven by his subconsciousness. Maybe he didn’t even know much about what he was doing.

It was all just instinct.

Ji Qingzhou closed her eyes. She could no longer see the red vital energy that belonged to Shen Rongyu. The color stung her eyes.

Shen Rongyu’s vital energy slowly crawled up the back of her hand, as if to root there. He approached her and enveloped her. The winding red vital energy climbed up to the blue light and spread like a cobweb, even covering up the blue vital energy.

Just when Ji Qingzhou was about to be engulfed by him, his vital energy stopped fully crowding into the space belonging to her. His vital energy just rubbed against her cheek and crept on the side of her neck. It was ticklish and sensual, especially now that Ji Qingzhou cut off her vision, thus magnifying her other senses.

She heard his soft gasp. The longer the darkness that cut off her vision lasted, the more obvious the mysterious and subtle sound became.

Ji Qingzhou felt that she might not be able to stand it anymore, and instead might melt into this cultivation space.

Just when her consciousness was about to be swallowed up by Shen Rongyu, the light in front of her suddenly lit up, a warm orange glow in her space.

She clutched the front of Shen Rongyu’s robe and raised her head, and she saw Shen Rong Yu’s dazzling jawline.

“Zhouzhou?” He stroked her cheek with a big palm, his tone bewildered, with a trace of innocence. “What’s wrong?”

Ji Qingzhou’s face was flushed. She stared at him with wide eyes, her eyes flooded with moisture. To her surprise, she even forgot to avoid his eyes.

Shen Rongyu didn’t know?

If they were now sleeping on a bed, he would have been very close to squeezing her out of bed.

He actually asked her what was wrong? Does he even speak human language?

However, Ji Qingzhou did not dare to voice it out. She thought that the red vital energy and the radiant fragments interspersed with it must be his secret. If she were to mention it, he’d most likely silence her.

With Shen Rongyu’s reaction, it seemed that he really did not know what happened in the cultivation space. Otherwise, he should have found out when the fragment hit her.

She felt a little shy, so she pushed his chest with both hands, backed away from his arms, and whispered, “It’s nothing. It’s so hot in summer.”

They were in a cultivation sect. A spell naturally was set up in the courtyards on White Water Island to regulate the temperature. How could it be hot?

Shen Rongyu straightened his clothes that she crumpled. He knew Ji Qingzhou’s temperament all too well. Without asking any further, he only lowered his eyes and picked up the Burial Snow Sword that was placed on the table.

Before he left, he caught a glimpse of Ji Qingzhou’s clothes by the pillow. It was neatly folded. After going there so many times, he naturally knew the layout of Ji Qingzhou’s room. Generally, she would not put clothes so neatly by the pillow.

Shen Rongyu remained silent. Although he had his doubts, he did not ask.

Ji Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when he left. At this time, the system was also silent. She thought that only she knew what happened during the practice, otherwise the system would have popped out to poke fun at her by now.

She lowered her head and glanced at her hand. In the cultivation space, the red, vine-like vital energy should have slowly crept upward from the back of her hand, all the way to the side of her neck and behind her ears. Its route every time it meandered forward was vividly imprinted in her mind.

Ji Qingzhou rubbed the back of her hand and bit her lip. She didn’t know who to tell the matter to. She would never tell the system about it, because it would have one more reason to embarrass her.

She still climbed into bed as usual, and when she slept in the corner wrapped in a quilt, she thought to herself, I don’t think I’m too adverse to it either…

In short, being close to him wasn’t repulsive to her. Could this be self-cultivation of a person trying to capture someone?

Ji Qingzhou entertained all sorts of notions as she dozed off. She seldom dreamed, so she slept soundly and woke up early the next day.

She still didn’t know what Shen Rongyu was going to do with her. It was impossible for him to really go on a date with her. A future villain should not be so bored.

Ji Qingzhou believed so while shaking off the black dress by the pillow and putting it on. It had a very simple style. She put on a thick outer robe, so that when she didn’t want to face others’ eyes, she could quickly bury her face into the collar.

She smoothed the hem of her clothes and looked in the mirror again. Biting the rubber band, she brushed her hair. Half of her hair draped down her shoulders, and the other half was tied into a small bun at the back of her head.

Her jewelry box was empty, and she wasn’t adept at dressing herself up either. Besides, too shiny and ornamental finery wasn’t suitable for her.

She closed the empty jewelry box drawer again and left the courtyard, seemingly no different from the usual time she went to class, but there were still some differences in the subtleties.

Ji Qingzhou came all the way to the shore of White Water Island, and Shen Rongyu was already waiting here.
