Wuxia: Become the 100-Victory Sword King at the Beginning

Chapter 230. A Dream of Immortality: Liu Tingting's Cunning Heart and Shi Feiyang's Deep Affection
In an instant, Shi Feiyang felt an indescribable heat ignite from his dantian, as if a raging fire was burning wildly within his body, rapidly spreading to all his meridians. His skin glowed with an eerie red light, and his blood vessels, like earthworms, bulged clearly beneath his skin, with blood surging wildly within them, making a buzzing sound.

His bones began to crack and pop, as if they were under immense pressure and could shatter at any moment.

Shi Feiyang closed his eyes tightly in pain, clenched his teeth, and sweat poured from his forehead, instantly soaking his clothes.

As this power raged through his body, Shi Feiyang's consciousness began to blur, and the scene before him gradually distorted.

He felt as if he were in a chaotic void, surrounded by endless darkness and intense heat, with only the mysterious power within him shining like a dazzling star. He could clearly feel his power increasing at a frenzied pace, like a flood bursting its banks.

With each breath, it felt as if he could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, integrating it into his meridians and elevating his skill to a higher level.

During this painful and transformative process, Shi Feiyang's body trembled continuously.

His muscles were tense yet relaxed, as if he were engaged in a fierce battle.

His hair flew wildly, as if controlled by an invisible force. The surrounding air distorted due to the burst of power within him, forming small vortexes that swept up dust and gravel from the ground.

After an unknown amount of time, Shi Feiyang felt the power within his body gradually stabilize, but his skill level continued to rise, reaching a terrifying level of a thousandfold increase.

He slowly opened his eyes, a sharp light flashing within them, a light that seemed to penetrate everything, carrying a chilling majesty.

He clenched his fist lightly, feeling an immense power within him, enough to split mountains and shatter rocks with a single punch. He took a deep breath, instantly drawing in the surrounding air, creating a small tornado that sent stone chips flying everywhere.

Shi Feiyang knew that he had been completely transformed.

This elixir left behind by Xu Fu not only greatly increased his power, but also gave him the strength to change the landscape of the martial arts world.

However, he also knew that this power brought not only opportunities, but also enormous challenges.

Shi Feiyang closed the lid of the wooden box and put it into the mysterious deerskin bag at his waist.

As Shi Feiyang's internal power gradually stabilized and he was feeling the shock of his sudden surge in power, he inadvertently looked up and saw that the sky above him was already blocked by a huge object. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a massive boulder weighing tens of thousands of kilograms, like a towering small mountain, hanging heavily above, completely blocking his way.

It turns out that inside the cave, a group of Japanese pirates, led by their leader Jingkou Xianzha, colluded with Gao Dacheng, the young leader of the Giant Whale Gang, and the elite disciples of the Giant Whale Gang led by the elders Gao Deli, Gao Hui, and Gao Kuang, and were in cahoots to do evil.

They had planned this insidious scheme long ago. Using rolling logs, they exerted tremendous effort to slowly push the boulder over the trap, precisely blocking Shi Feiyang's escape route.

They had their own plans, knowing full well that the space inside the trap was cramped and the air was thin. Once the exit was sealed, Shi Feiyang would be like a turtle in a jar, unable to escape, and would surely suffocate to death in this dark and hopeless trap.

They stood outside the trap, staring at the blocked entrance, their faces contorted with a sinister and triumphant smile, as if they could already see Shi Feiyang's despair. Seeing this, Shi Feiyang was consumed by rage, but remained calm.

He let out a cold snort, his voice deep and icy, as if it came from the deepest hell. In an instant, the "Shocking Calamity" divine skill was activated.

His gaze was piercing, fixed on the massive boulder weighing tens of thousands of pounds above him. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and a powerful spiritual force surged towards the boulder like a raging tide. Under the impact of this force, tiny cracks began to appear on the surface of the boulder, spreading rapidly like a spider web. Crackling sounds echoed within the trap, and the boulder groaned in pain.

However, Shi Feiyang did not focus all his energy on breaking through the boulder. He knew that time was of the essence and he had to race against the clock.

So, while continuing to unleash the Astounding Calamity, he gripped the Frostblade and collected the surrounding mercury into the magical deerskin pouch at his waist.

This deerskin bag may look ordinary, but it actually has a hidden secret: there is no limit to how much you can put in it.

Immediately afterwards, he found countless gold and silver treasures, as well as all sorts of strange weapons and hidden darts, which Xu Fu had hidden in a corner of the trap.

These treasures shimmered alluringly in the dim light, but Shi Feiyang had no time to admire them, quickly putting them one by one into his deerskin bag.

As the "Shocking Calamity" continued to exert its force, the massive boulder weighing tens of thousands of kilograms above the trap finally succumbed to its weight and shattered completely with a loud "boom".

Stones rained down, and Shi Feiyang gripped the Frost Blade, wielding it with impenetrable force to protect his head.

He seized the opportunity, his figure moving like lightning, leaping up suddenly and rushing towards the cave entrance like a black phantom.

In the blink of an eye, Shi Feiyang leaped out and appeared in the cave.

At this moment, the cave was filled with torches, their flickering light illuminating the entire cave.

The Japanese pirates and the thugs of the Giant Whale Gang, who had been immersed in the fantasy that Shi Feiyang was surely dead, were all dumbfounded when they saw him appear before them unharmed. Their eyes widened, their faces filled with shock and fear, as if they had seen a ghost.

Their weapons fell unconsciously, making a clanging sound that was particularly jarring in the silent cave.

Young gang leader Gao Dacheng was the first to recover from his shock. His eyes were filled with fear, like a frightened rabbit. He had lost all his usual arrogance and hurriedly covered his head and ran away. His disheveled appearance revealed his cowardly nature.

The wellhead shovel reacted swiftly as well. His eyes widened, revealing a fierce and resolute look, and with a "whoosh," he drew his long Japanese sword.

The blade gleamed coldly, radiating a chilling aura in the flickering firelight of the cave.

He roared and unleashed his signature move, "Wind-Facing Slash," leaping into the air like a black lightning bolt. Using the momentum, his katana whistled through the wind as he slashed fiercely down at Shi Feiyang.

Upon seeing this, the three elders of the Giant Whale Gang, Gao Deli, Gao Hui, and Gao Kuang, seemed to awaken from a dream. The three exchanged a glance, a ruthless glint in their eyes, and each gripped their longswords, unleashing the superior sword technique known as "The First Sword of the East."

This sword technique is exquisite and has no fixed moves. Its key lies entirely in the word "transformation," allowing for endless variations and free movement, completely unrestrained by conventional sword techniques. As the three of them unleashed their skills, the sword light flashed, enveloping Shi Feiyang like a ball of light and shadow.

Their movements appeared casual, each swing of their swords seemingly effortless, but in reality, they concealed deadly intent.

This is the supreme skill in swordsmanship, one that no one in the world can easily resist.

Despite being surrounded by these four formidable enemies, Shi Feiyang remained calm and composed, as steady as a mountain.

He activated the Mingyu Gong, and the true energy within his body surged and flowed like a mighty river.

In an instant, a faint halo appeared around him, which was like a materialized shield, rising and falling rhythmically with his breathing. Strange runes flickered faintly within the halo, which was the manifestation of the powerful Mingyu Gong.

He gripped the Frost Blade tightly with both hands, its blade gleaming coldly, and unleashed a move from the "Hundred Victories Blade Technique"—"Golden Dragon Coiling Claws."

He spun around like a black whirlwind, wielding the Frost Blade to unleash a dazzling blade of light. This blade of light resembled a golden dragon, baring its fangs and claws, its head held high, whiskers fluttering, and its mouth wide open, carrying an overwhelming momentum as it met the enemy's attack. It clashed with the weapons of the four men, producing a series of crisp metallic clangs and sparks flying everywhere.

As he turned around, Shi Feiyang snorted coldly at the wellhead shovel.

The cold snort was deep and icy, as if it came from the deepest hell, exuding endless chill.

In an instant, the "Shocking Calamity" divine skill was generated.

Shi Feiyang's gaze was like lightning as he glared angrily at the wellhead shovel, his eyes flashing with cold light.

In an instant, a powerful spiritual force surged toward the wellhead shovel like a raging tide.

As soon as he reached the wellhead, he felt a chill rise from the bottom of his heart, which instantly spread throughout his body. His body trembled uncontrollably, and then his whole body was quickly covered with frost, freezing him instantly and rendering him unable to move.

Taking advantage of this brief opening, Shi Feiyang easily parried the swords of the three elders of the Giant Whale Gang, Gao Deli, Gao Hui, and Gao Kuang, with his exquisite swordsmanship.

He turned his body and swung his knife with a backhand motion, the movements fluid and seamless.

With a "crack," the head of the manhole shovel flew high into the air like a kite with a broken string, tracing an arc in the air. Blood gushed out from his neck like a fountain, his body splattered with blood, the scene extremely bloody.

Shi Feiyang did not stop there. He snorted coldly and unleashed the "Evil Blood Calamity" divine skill.

Using the blood gushing from the wellhead as a springboard, he glared at Gao Deli with eyes brimming with murderous intent.

He gripped the Heavenly Frost Blade tightly with both hands and unleashed a move from the Hundred Victories Blade Technique called "Heaven and Earth Live Together".

This move was incredibly powerful. With a flick of his blade, a powerful force surged forth, deflecting Gao Hui's sword.

Immediately afterward, he skillfully redirected Gao Kuang's sword towards Gao Deli by simultaneously withdrawing and extending his strength. Gao Deli, still somewhat dazed from being struck by Shi Feiyang's astonishing divine skill, was unable to react in time and only felt a sharp pain in his chest as Gao Kuang pierced him through with his sword.

Gao Deli's eyes widened in disbelief and fear. He spat out a mouthful of blood and died on the spot.

Blood splattered all over Gao Kuang. Before Gao Kuang could recover from the shock, he felt the blood in his body being pulled by an invisible force and flowing uncontrollably toward Shi Feiyang.

His face turned deathly pale instantly, his body quickly withered, and he vomited blood incessantly before collapsing to his knees.

Soon after, he bled to death, collapsed to the ground, and died a gruesome death. His body was shriveled and his corpse looked extremely frightening.

Seeing the situation was dire, Gao Hui turned ashen-faced and his legs went weak. He dared not fight any longer and turned to run.

How could Shi Feiyang let him off so easily? A resolute glint flashed in his eyes as he quickly caught up with him.

He unleashed a move called "Heaven and Earth Live Together," raising the Heavenly Frost Blade high in his hand with the momentum of splitting the heavens and earth, and slashed it fiercely down at Gao Hui.

With a "plop," Gao Hui's body was instantly cleaved in two, blood splattering everywhere. The splattering blood was like sharp blades, causing the surrounding Japanese pirates and the evil bandits of the Giant Whale Gang to vomit blood.

Under the influence of this strange force, their bodies began to bleed continuously, and they all collapsed to their knees, dying of blood loss shortly afterward.

In an instant, blood flowed freely within the cave, soaking the ground. Countless shriveled corpses collapsed in the blood, creating a gruesome and terrifying scene, like a living hell. Shi Feiyang gripped the Heavenly Frost Blade firmly in both hands and walked steadily out of the cave, step by step. His eyes were cold and resolute, like stars in a cold night, revealing a fortitude born from a life-or-death battle.

As soon as he stepped out of the cave, he suddenly swung his sword backhand, a strike imbued with immense power capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks.

As he swung his sword, the cave trembled violently, followed by a deafening roar, as if the sky were falling and the earth were splitting apart.

The cave walls began to collapse, large chunks of rock tumbled down, raising clouds of dust, and thick smoke instantly filled the air, as if the end of the world had come.

At this moment, Liu Tingting, the "Night Princess Jellyfish" lying prone in the clouds, instantly caught the unusual movement on the ground with her keen eyes.

She was like a light snowflake, gently drifting down from the sky, a touch of gentleness in winter, carrying a subtle lightness. Dressed in white, she moved with the wind, like a fairy descending to earth, stunningly beautiful.

Her eyes were as bright as autumn water, exuding an extraordinary and refined aura that made people afraid to look directly at her, like the brightest star in the night sky, sparkling with a captivating light.

Shi Feiyang looked up and saw Liu Tingting gracefully land in front of him. Her beautiful figure was like a willow catkin in the wind, light and elegant. Every movement of hers revealed an ethereal lightness, as if she were the most perfect masterpiece of nature, making people fall in love with her.

When Liu Tingting realized that the person in front of her was Shi Feiyang, she was astonished and stared wide-eyed, her eyes filled with doubt. She blurted out, "Shi Feiyang, what are you doing here? Are you perhaps cultivating immortality here?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she drew the Ice Jade Sword without hesitation. The sword gleamed with a cold light, formed from ice that had been frozen for thousands of years.

She activated her "Holy Water Divine Skill," and in an instant, her entire body radiated a purple glow. This glow enveloped her, like a mysterious halo, adding to her mystery and beauty.

Immediately afterwards, she unleashed the "Divine Water Sword Technique," her movements as swift as lightning. The Ice Jade Sword, like a serpent spitting its tongue, thrust straight at Shi Feiyang. The sword strikes were fierce, carrying a chilling aura, as if to freeze the surrounding air.

Her actions this time were not driven by jealousy or hatred, but by a deep-seated doubt that compelled her to test Shi Feiyang.

She couldn't understand why Shi Feiyang would appear so strangely in front of this hidden cave on Penglai Immortal Island, why he would destroy the cave, and why blood was constantly seeping out from under the rubble.

All of this brought her curiosity to its peak.

Upon seeing this, Shi Feiyang snorted coldly, his voice deep and icy, as if it came from the deepest hell: "Liu Tingting, are you crazy? Why do you keep trying to kill your ex-husband?" Before he finished speaking, he activated the Mingyu Gong, and the true energy in his body surged like a raging river, rushing and roaring through his meridians.

In an instant, a faint halo appeared around him, resembling a tangible shield that rose and fell rhythmically with his breathing. Strange runes flickered within the halo, a manifestation of the powerful Mingyu Gong. At the same time, wisps of white mist enveloped his body, like nimble sprites surrounding him, adding to his mystique.

He gripped the Heavenly Frost Blade and unleashed the "Hundred Victories Blade Technique," his body spinning rapidly like a black whirlwind. The blade flashed, forming a dazzling silver curtain of light as he met Liu Tingting's sword strike. The two instantly clashed, their swords flashing and the air filled with a hissing sound—the sharp noise of blades slicing through the air.

Liu Tingting's "Divine Water Sword Technique" was exquisite; each thrust carried a chilling sword aura, its moves unpredictable and impossible to defend against. Shi Feiyang's "Hundred Victories Saber Technique," on the other hand, was powerful and fierce; each slash carried the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, the wind whistling as if tearing space itself apart. Their figures moved swiftly through the dust and smoke, sometimes separating, sometimes closing in; each clash sparked dazzling flashes and produced a crisp, metallic clang.

Shi Feiyang moved with lightning speed, constantly searching for Liu Tingting's weaknesses in the fierce battle.

He seized the opportunity and slashed out with a powerful, overwhelming force, aiming straight for Liu Tingting.

Liu Tingting reacted quickly, her figure flashing like a white phantom, skillfully avoiding the sharp blade.

She immediately retaliated, her ice jade sword piercing towards Shi Feiyang's chest like a venomous snake.

Shi Feiyang quickly used the Frost Blade to block, and with a "clang", the two weapons collided, sparks flying everywhere.

The powerful impact caused both of them to stagger back several steps, leaving deep footprints on the ground.

A hint of surprise flashed in Liu Tingting's eyes; she hadn't expected Shi Feiyang's skill to be so profound.

But she did not back down; instead, it fueled her fighting spirit. She channeled her "Holy Water Divine Power," and the purple glow intensified, making the swordplay of her ice jade sword even more ferocious.

She unleashed a deadly move from the "Divine Water Sword Technique," with countless sword shadows enveloping Shi Feiyang.

Shi Feiyang's expression was solemn; he knew how powerful Liu Tingting's move was.

He activated the Mingyu Skill, raising his power to its limit. The white mist around him grew increasingly dense, as if forming an indestructible barrier.

He unleashed the exquisite moves of the "Hundred Victories Sword Technique," engaging in a thrilling life-or-death duel with Liu Tingting.

Outside the cave on this Penglai Immortal Island, the fierce battle between Shi Feiyang and Liu Tingting intensified.

Gradually, Liu Tingting felt a bone-chilling coldness spreading throughout her body. The chill seeped into her limbs and bones, causing her to tremble slightly. This feeling of coldness grew stronger and stronger, which terrified her.

She thought to herself, "Back then, in that duel atop Yanshan Mountain, Shi Feiyang was clearly no match for me. How could he have become so powerful in just one month? Mingyu Gong may be miraculous, but it is ultimately just an internal cultivation method practiced by mortals. I, on the other hand, have been an immortal for many years and possess extraordinary supernatural powers. How could I be gradually losing ground to this mortal? Humph! He must have found some divine elixir in this cave and consumed it, which greatly increased his power."

With this thought in mind, Liu Tingting gritted her teeth, steeled her resolve, and decided to unleash her ultimate skill. Her hands moved rapidly, and she chanted incantations. Instantly, her aura shifted, and a mysterious and eerie power surged forth from her body.

With the enhancement of this power, the ice jade sword in her hand became illusory, with sword shadows overlapping and making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Each sword strike was accompanied by countless lifelike venomous snakes, earthworms, centipedes, and wolves. These poisonous creatures and ferocious beasts bared their fangs and claws, surging towards Shi Feiyang with a chilling aura.

The venomous snake flicked its tongue, which gleamed with a cold light; the earthworm twisted its body, as if trying to entangle the flying stone; the centipede's legs moved rapidly, making a rustling sound; the wolf howled to the sky, its voice shrill and terrifying.

In an instant, the area within dozens of feet around the two of them transformed into a bizarre world.

However, Shi Feiyang remained calm and composed in the face of this sudden and bizarre attack, showing no sign of fragility even when Mount Tai collapsed before him.

He gripped the Frostblade firmly with both hands, its blade gleaming with a cold light, as if telling of its eagerness to drink the blood of its enemies.

He would occasionally let out a cold snort, a low and icy sound that seemed to come from the deepest hell, carrying endless chill.

In an instant, the "Shocking Calamity" divine skill was generated.

His gaze was piercing, fixed on the venomous snakes, centipedes, earthworms, and wolves within Liu Tingting's illusory sword energy. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and a powerful spiritual force surged towards these strange creatures like a raging tide.

Under the influence of the elixir, the blessing of the superior bloodline, and the enhancement of the Mingyu Technique, the venomous snakes, centipedes, earthworms, and wolves were instantly covered in frost and their bodies stiffened. Then, with a series of cracking sounds, they shattered and turned into ice shards scattered all over the ground.

An eerie atmosphere permeated the air, the lingering resentment of these strange creatures after their deaths.

Taking advantage of the moment when Liu Tingting's moves slowed down, Shi Feiyang moved like lightning and rushed towards Liu Tingting.

He unleashed a move from the "Hundred Victories Blade Technique," the "Golden Dragon Coiling Claws," wielding the Heavenly Frost Blade in his hand, unleashing a dazzling blade of light. This blade of light resembled a golden dragon, baring its fangs and claws, its head held high, its whiskers fluttering, its mouth wide open, carrying an overwhelming momentum that pressed directly towards Liu Tingting.

Upon seeing this, Liu Tingting was greatly alarmed and quickly brandished her Ice Jade Sword to defend herself.

With a clang, the two weapons collided, producing a deafening roar and sending sparks flying.

The powerful impact caused both of them to stagger back several steps, leaving deep footprints on the ground.

Liu Tingting was increasingly shocked; she had never imagined that Shi Feiyang was so powerful.

But she was, after all, a cultivator, proud and arrogant, and would not easily admit defeat.

She took a deep breath and once again activated her "Holy Water Divine Skill," which enveloped her in a purple glow, making her appear even more mysterious and powerful.

The swordplay of her ice jade sword became even more unpredictable and bizarre. Within the sword shadows, countless eerie creatures seemed to appear and disappear, preparing to launch another attack. Shi Feiyang, on the other hand, had a solemn expression. He knew that Liu Tingting would not give up easily, and this battle would inevitably become even more intense.

On Penglai Island, a gentle sea breeze carries a hint of saltiness.

The azure sky, like a clear sapphire, merges with the boundless sea at the horizon, and the shimmering sea surface sparkles with golden light under the sun.

In the distance, several small islands of different shapes are scattered like stars. The islands are shaded by green trees and full of flowers. The colorful flowers compete for beauty and emit a charming fragrance, as if it were a fairyland painting carefully sculpted by nature.

The fierce battle between Shi Feiyang and Liu Tingting seemed out of place against this dreamlike backdrop. As the battle continued, the white mist emanating from Shi Feiyang grew thicker, like a soft cloud slowly spreading towards Liu Tingting.

The white mist seemed to have a life of its own, gradually enveloping Liu Tingting's Purple Cloud True Qi, and then enveloping her body as well.

Liu Tingting felt a bone-chilling cold instantly strike her, as if she were in an ice cellar, her whole body was freezing, and she couldn't help but shiver.

She was greatly alarmed, knowing that if things continued like this, she would surely be in dire straits. So she quickly dodged out of the battle.

Seeing Liu Tingting retreat, Shi Feiyang slowly sheathed his sword, but did not press his advantage.

Deep in his heart, he harbored an unbreakable affection for his stunningly beautiful ex-wife.

He looked at Liu Tingting, his eyes filled with complex emotions, including past love and present helplessness.

Liu Tingting steadied herself, her body still trembling slightly. She raised her head and asked in a trembling voice, "Shi Feiyang, you've come to Penglai Immortal Island this time. Could it be that you've really come to cultivate immortality? If so, could you give me an immortal pill? Do you know that my level in the Immortal Realm is low? Those high-level Celestial Immortals always treat me with contempt and bully me at will. I've had a really hard time."

As she spoke, a tear welled up in her eyes, and her pitiful appearance made people feel sorry for her.

Shi Feiyang felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw Liu Tingting's appearance.

He sighed softly and took out the elixir left behind by Xu Fu from the deerskin bag at his waist, which was invisible to ordinary people.

This elixir radiated a soft glow in the sunlight, containing boundless mysterious power.

Shi Feiyang gently tossed the elixir to Liu Tingting and said, "This is an elixir left behind by Xu Fu. It is said to contain the blood of a phoenix. I ate one before, and my power increased a thousandfold."

Liu Tingting quickly reached out and took the elixir, eagerly putting it in her cherry-like mouth.

As she slowly swallowed the elixir, feeling its magical power, she put away the Ice Jade Sword and slowly walked towards Shi Feiyang.

She walked up to Shi Feiyang, tilted her head slightly, a hint of cunning flashing in her eyes, and then threw herself into his arms.

Shi Feiyang instinctively reached out to hug her, but felt as if he were holding an iceberg; the chill penetrated his clothes and went straight to his heart.

But he didn't let go; instead, he held Liu Tingting tightly, wanting to warm her with his body heat.

Gradually, in Shi Feiyang's embrace, the chill in Liu Tingting's body seemed to slowly dissipate, like an iceberg melting into a soft ball of cotton. Nestled in Shi Feiyang's arms, Liu Tingting whispered, "Feiyang, after everything we've been through, I realize you're still the best to me. I was immature before and did many wrong things. Can you forgive me?"

Her voice was soft and melodious, filled with endless tenderness.

Shi Feiyang gently stroked her hair and said tenderly, "Tingting, let's not talk about the past anymore. As long as you're back by my side now, everything is fine." Liu Tingting nodded slightly, a barely perceptible smile playing on her lips, but in her heart, she was calculating how to get more benefits from Shi Feiyang. Late spring on Penglai Immortal Island was like a breathtakingly beautiful painting meticulously crafted by nature.

The sky was as blue as a jewel, and the clouds floated as softly as cotton wool, like sprites being casually manipulated by the breeze.

The sea breeze, carrying the unique warmth and fragrance of spring, gently caresses the air, stirring the hair and the heartstrings.

The island is covered in a riot of flowers—red as fire, pink as the sunset, and white as snow. They sway gracefully in the breeze, intertwining to create a vibrant sea of ​​blossoms. The rich fragrance of the flowers fills the air, captivating all who behold them.

In the distance, the waves rhythmically lapped against the shore, making a "whoosh" sound, like a lullaby played by the sea, gentle and soothing, telling the ancient legends of the fairy island.

Shi Feiyang gently released Liu Tingting from her tight embrace, his eyes filled with tenderness.

He took out an exquisite tent from a deerskin bag that was invisible to ordinary people at his waist.

This tent looks ordinary, but it is spacious and comfortable when unfolded.

Then he took out a bathtub and skillfully poured water from the deerskin bag into it.

Clear water flowed gently into the bathtub, splashing up tiny droplets.

Shi Feiyang smiled and extended his hand to Liu Tingting. Liu Tingting blushed slightly, gently took his hand, and the two walked into the tent together.

Inside the tent, the air was filled with steam and a warm atmosphere.

Shi Feiyang and Liu Tingting slowly stepped into the bathtub, and the water rippled with their movements.

Shi Feiyang looked at Liu Tingting tenderly and said softly, "Tingting, do you still remember the first time we met? You were dressed in white, like a fairy descending to earth. I was captivated at first sight."

Liu Tingting smiled slightly, a complex look flashing in her eyes, and replied softly, "How could I not remember? I just never imagined that we would go through so many twists and turns."

Shi Feiyang gently held her hand and said sincerely, "No matter what happened in the past, I feel very happy to be here with you now. I will definitely protect you in the days to come."

Liu Tingting nodded slightly, leaned on Shi Feiyang's shoulder, and whispered, "I hope so."

Her voice was soft, yet carried a hint of uncertainty. The two frolicked in the water, splashing and laughing, their laughter mingling with the sound of waves crashing against the shore outside the tent.

That night, all was quiet except for the waves that continued to tirelessly pound the shore.

The moonlight, like water, spilled onto the tent, casting a hazy glow.

Liu Tingting slowly opened her eyes in her sleep, a strange light flashing in them.

While Shi Feiyang was asleep, she gently and slowly slipped out of his embrace, afraid of waking her lover.

Her heart was pounding, her breathing became slightly heavy, and her eyes were full of urgency and longing.

Liu Tingting carefully groped around inside the tent, trying to find Shi Feiyang's deerskin bag.

She knew that the deerskin bag contained countless secrets and treasures that might help her escape her lowly status in the celestial realm.

Her hands searched cautiously in the darkness, every movement deliberate, her eyes glancing frequently at the sleeping Shi Feiyang, afraid he might suddenly wake up. The tent was silent except for her tense breathing and the soft sounds of her groping.

However, no matter how carefully Liu Tingting searched, she could not find the mysterious deerskin bag.

Her brows were furrowed, her heart filled with doubt and anxiety.

Unbeknownst to her, the deerskin bag was obtained by Shi Feiyang from the Divine Dragon Pagoda of the Sunflower Saintess.

As a great sage among celestial beings, the Sunflower Fairy possesses extraordinary powers; how could a minor fairy like Liu Tingting easily spy on and steal her treasures?

The deerskin bag seemed to possess its own consciousness, hiding in the darkness and evading Liu Tingting's search.

A sense of unease welled up in Liu Tingting's heart. She began to wonder if the deerskin bag was protected by some mysterious power, and whether her actions had led her into a dangerous situation.

Liu Tingting searched in vain for the mysterious deerskin bag in the darkness. Her hopes gradually shattered like bubbles, and anxiety and resentment spread wildly in her heart. She bit her lower lip, a resolute glint in her eyes, and then carefully looked around again. After confirming that she had found nothing, she had no choice but to tiptoe silently back to her bed.

She gently lay back in Shi Feiyang's arms, her movements as soft as a falling feather, as if afraid of waking the sleeping Shi Feiyang beside her.

Shi Feiyang's embrace was still warm, but Liu Tingting's mind was not on this warmth at all.

She closed her eyes slightly, focusing intently on the changes within her body. She felt a powerful force surging through her meridians, like a rushing river, each flow bringing an indescribable sense of exhilaration and power.

She was certain that this was due to the elixir Shi Feiyang had given her during the day, and the feeling of greatly increased power made her even more greedy.

Liu Tingting pondered to herself, "Just how many more of these miraculous elixirs are hidden in Shi Feiyang's deerskin bag? Each one could be the key to my meteoric rise in the immortal realm. Hmm, I must trick him into giving me all his elixirs and consume them all. That way, my cultivation will surely reach a new level, and advancing in the immortal realm won't be difficult. Hehe, anyway, he's my ex-husband, and now he's my husband. What's wrong with a little scheming between husband and wife? Let's just consider it each getting what we need and fulfilling the obligations that husband and wife should have."

A slight upturn at the corners of her lips revealed a subtle, sly smile that appeared particularly cold in the darkness.

The next morning, sunlight, like a golden veil, gently shone through the gaps in the tent onto the two of them.

Shi Feiyang slowly woke up, looked at Liu Tingting in his arms, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Liu Tingting opened her eyes at the opportune moment, her gaze filled with tenderness, and she looked deeply into Shi Feiyang's eyes. The two bathed and changed clothes together, their movements full of intimacy and tacit understanding. On the surface, the past estrangement had completely disappeared, and their marital relationship had been perfectly repaired.
