A master of both medicine and martial arts, he recruits a beautiful CEO to cultivate immortality tog

As night deepened, the city of Mohai was ablaze with lights, like a galaxy hanging upside down.

Lin Ruofei returned to her hotel suite, her brows furrowed with undisguised exhaustion.

The shadow of the lunar eclipse, the pressure of the concert, the mind-blowing scene in the coffee shop during the day... all sorts of thoughts intertwined in her mind, making her feel no sense of relaxation even when she returned to this familiar room.

Ye Heng followed behind her and closed the door behind him.

"Mr. Ye," Lin Ruofei turned around, her back to the night view of the Demon Sea outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the light and shadow casting a faint shadow on her delicate profile.

"Could you stay in this room tonight...?"

Generally speaking, it would be quite arousing to say such passionate words when faced with such a stunning beauty.

No man could refuse.

"I'm afraid it might be inconvenient. Don't worry, I'm in the next room, I can still make sure you're safe."

Ye Heng knew, of course, that Lin Ruofei's words had nothing to do with any relationship between a man and a woman.

It's just a helpless act born out of a lack of security.

Now, of course he can agree directly.

However, if one retreats to advance and refuses the offer first, it might actually yield good results.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Ruofei shook her head and said, "There's nothing inconvenient about it. The concert is tomorrow, and I'll feel more at ease if you're in the same room. So much has happened today, I... can't quite calm down."

"Okay." He nodded, his gaze sweeping over the spacious suite living room. "Then I'll sleep on the sofa."

"No, I asked the hotel to change it to a twin room, with two beds in the bedroom," she added, deliberately keeping her tone calm, but her ears still turned red.

Ye Heng's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything more.

The room quickly quieted down.

Lin Ruofei went to the bathroom to wash up, and the sound of running water could be heard.

Imagine a stunningly beautiful woman bathing beside you, a sight that sparks endless imagination.

Ye Heng simply sat down on the single sofa by the window, closed his eyes and concentrated, his true energy slowly circulating within his body.

A moment later, Lin Ruofei came out wearing a soft, light beige loungewear set. Her long hair was wrapped in a towel, and her face, without makeup, had lost some of the aloofness and coldness she displayed on stage, and gained a more gentle, homely feel.

She walked to another bed and sat down, but instead of lying down immediately, she hugged her knees and her gaze involuntarily drifted toward Ye Heng, who was sitting quietly by the window.

His eyes were full of curiosity.

In the dim light, his features were clearly defined, his breathing was long and deep, and his body seemed to be shrouded in a very faint, almost invisible light, creating a mysterious harmony with his surroundings.

Is this cultivation? It seems quite different from the meditation and practice she had imagined; it's more tranquil, more... profound.

The shocking scene from the coffee shop during the day resurfaced—Shen Zhongshan's terrifying backlash, Ye Heng's single glance causing him to freeze in horror... These were all powers belonging to another world.

And she was currently sharing a room with the highest being in this world.

"Mr. Ye, have you... always cultivated like this? Don't you need to sleep?"

Ye Heng opened his eyes. "Cultivation itself is the best form of rest. For ordinary people, sleep is a way to restore energy. For cultivators, breathing in spiritual energy, refining true essence, and nourishing the soul are far more effective than sleep."

Lin Ruofei nodded as if she understood, then asked, "Then... is cultivation difficult? For someone like me, starting now, is it too late?"

There was a hint of longing in her voice that she herself was unaware of.

It wasn't just out of curiosity about extraordinary power; perhaps more profoundly, it was today's events that made her realize how fragile the aura of a celebrity, the wealth of her family, and even a bodyguard like Qin Wu are in the face of real danger.

If only I could possess even the slightest power to protect myself...

Ye Heng's gaze lingered on her for a moment.

The Phoenix and Luan Harmony Body. This physique is one in a million, and it is extremely beneficial for cultivating certain specific techniques, especially in the path of dual cultivation... However, he did not intend to reveal all of this at this moment.

"On the path of cultivation, the most important factors are innate talent, temperament, and opportunity. Age is not an absolute obstacle, but it does mean that if you start later, you need to put in more effort."

"Your physique is somewhat special, known as the Luan-Feng Harmony Physique. If you embark on the path of cultivation, you will be able to sense spiritual energy more easily than ordinary people, and your progress may be faster. However, the specifics will depend on your comprehension and whether you are compatible with the right cultivation method."

Special physique? Lin Ruofei was slightly taken aback.

She never felt that there was anything special about her body, except that she did have some unique talent in music.

Could this also be due to my constitution?

"Then... can you teach me?" she blurted out almost without thinking, then realized it was a bit abrupt and quickly added.

"I know this might be presumptuous, and you have many important things to take care of. I just... wanted to give it a try."

Ye Heng looked at her.

Under the lights, she shed her stage presence and resembled a young woman filled with curiosity and a touch of trepidation about the unknown.

Teaching her cultivation was not difficult for him either; a basic Qi-inducing method would suffice.

Moreover, if her "Phoenix Harmony Body" is initially activated and nourished by spiritual energy, it may give her a greater instinctive reaction to protect herself in the face of potential future troubles.

"Okay," he replied, his voice low but clear and certain. "I'll first teach you a basic method for calming the mind and sensing the flow of Qi. Try practicing it."

Lin Ruofei's eyes suddenly lit up. "Now?"

"Now." Ye Heng got up, walked to the carpet next to her bed, sat cross-legged, and gestured for her to sit in the same position.

"Close your eyes, relax your mind, don't think about anything, just follow my guidance and feel your breath and the changes in your body."

Lin Ruofei did as he said, sitting cross-legged like him, taking a deep breath, and trying to calm her chaotic thoughts.

She could feel Ye Heng's palm gently pressed against her back. Through the thin fabric, her delicate body trembled, and a gentle yet irresistible warmth slowly flowed in, like a guided stream, slowly circulating within her body along some mysterious path.

At first, she could only feel the external warmth, but gradually, guided by Ye Heng, she seemed to detect some extremely tiny, cool "particles" in the air, which were trying to merge into the warm current with her breath...

As night deepened, only the two people's even, long breaths remained in the suite, along with the ever-burning lights of the city of Demonsea outside the window.
