Chaotic World of Martial Arts: I Have a Spirit Pearl of Desire

When I returned to my lodgings, it was already late at night, and all around was quiet.

Just as Chen You pushed open the courtyard gate and slipped inside, a slender figure rushed out of the house – it was Xu Qiuxue.

"Chen You, how are you? Are you alright?" Xu Qiuxue asked in a low voice, her delicate face full of anxiety and worry.

"It's all taken care of, everything went smoothly, no problem! Don't worry." Chen You patted her shoulder, indicating that she could relax.

As he spoke, he pulled out the package he had previously looted from his pocket and handed it directly to Xu Qiuxue: "Look what this is!!"

"What is this?"

Xu Qiuxue took the package with a puzzled look, and by the faint moonlight, she casually tore open a hole in it. After just one glance, she froze on the spot.

Inside the package, the gleaming silver ingots reflected a cool, clear light.

What's even more jarring is that several packets of precious medicines with an unusual fragrance were lying quietly nearby.

"Where...where did all this come from?" Xu Qiuxue gasped, looking at Chen You in disbelief.

"Don't ask, anyway, no one can trace it back to us."

"That's good! You must be tired, I'll go get you some rice!"

"You've worked hard. By the way, where's Yueyue?"

"She practiced horse stance whenever she had free time today. She was exhausted tonight and went to bed early."

As Xu Qiuxue spoke, she brought over hot rice and dishes.

As Chen You ate, Xu Qiuxue massaged his shoulders.

After eating and drinking his fill, Chen You sat down at the table and took out three Blood Strengthening Pills from his pocket.

The medicinal power of this Blood-Strengthening Pill is several times stronger than that of Blood-Strengthening Powder.

Most blood-strengthening powders are crude medicinal powders with mild and slow-acting effects, while this pill is refined from precious medicinal materials. Once ingested, its medicinal power will explode in the body like a volcanic eruption.

However, this level of elixir often has the best effect only on the first use.

It can greatly expand the flow of qi and blood.

If taken again in the future, the body will develop resistance, and the effect will be greatly reduced.

Xu Qiuxue finished clearing the dishes and came over. When she saw the pill, her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise and delight: "This is the Blood Strengthening Pill? I heard that in the inner city's pharmacies, such a pill would cost at least thirty taels of silver, and it is often in short supply."

"Yes, I'm planning to take it tonight to see if it can boost my strength to another level," Chen You nodded and said.

"Then you'd better be prepared," Xu Qiuxue gently reminded her. "I've heard that this kind of pill is extremely potent. After taking it, it will frantically stimulate the body's qi and blood impurities. After the effects wear off, your pores will expel a lot of foul-smelling sweat, making you feel sticky and uncomfortable. You should sit down first. I'll go to the kitchen to boil some hot water for you. You can take a bath after the effects wear off."

"Thank you for your hard work, Master's wife."

Hearing Xu Qiuxue's thoughtful concern, Chen You felt a warmth in his heart and couldn't help but reach out and grasp Xu Qiuxue's soft hand.

Her hand was held in his warm, large hand, and Xu Qiuxue's pretty face flushed slightly. "This little thing is nothing. As long as you can become stronger, that's better than anything else. Wait here, I'll go boil some water right now."

With that, she swayed her hips and left.

Chen You saw Xu Qiuxue's desire.

[Desire: I want to bathe you and serve you. (Completion will earn 20 Desire Points.)]

"No way, Master's wife is too kind!"

Chen You was deeply moved.

Alright, alright, I'll grant my master's wife this little wish later!

Then, Chen You held his breath, focused his energy in his dantian, and swallowed the Blood Strengthening Pill.

The pill slid down his throat, and in just a few breaths, it exploded in his abdomen like a volcanic eruption!

A violent and scorching medicinal power instantly transformed into countless streams of heat, which traveled wildly through the limbs and bones.

Chen You felt his blood vessels bulging violently, as if molten lava was surging inside him.

He hurriedly activated the Blood Strengthening and Breathing Technique, guiding the immense medicinal power to continuously impact the blood and qi throughout his body.

As the medicine took effect, his bones emitted a series of subtle crackling sounds, and his blood and qi became more vigorous and viscous at a visible speed.

Each heartbeat is as powerful as a drumbeat, giving rise to a continuous sense of strength.

Meanwhile, Xu Qiuxue was busy between the kitchen and the backyard.

She brought out a large wooden bucket that she rarely used, poured buckets of boiling water into it, and then drew well water to carefully mix it.

He tested the water temperature with the back of his hand until it became a comfortable warm temperature, then wiped the fine sweat from his forehead.

A moment later, the medicinal effects were finally completely absorbed by Chen You.

Just as Xu Qiuxue said, his pores were now seeping out a lot of dark, sticky oily stains, which gave off a faint sour smell. This was the blood and qi impurities being expelled from his body.

Chen You opened his eyes and felt sticky and uncomfortable all over. He immediately stepped into the large wooden tub.

Immersed in the warm water, every pore seemed to open up in that instant, and the previous heat and fatigue were swept away. He felt so comfortable that he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Seeing the black grime remaining on Chen You's shoulders, Xu Qiuxue blushed slightly, somewhat awkwardly took a towel, and said softly, "Chen You, you can't reach your back by yourself, let me rub it for you."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Master's wife," Chen You said with a smile, leaning against the edge of the wooden tub with her eyes closed.

With a flushed face, Xu Qiuxue walked behind the wooden tub and squatted down, gently draping a wet towel over Chen You's broad and sturdy shoulders.

When her fingertips touched Chen You's muscles, which had become hot and firm due to the breakthrough in his blood and qi, through the towel, her heart skipped a beat, and a blush spread all the way to her ears.

Suppressing the fluttering in her heart, she gently wiped the dirt off his back.

Amidst the rising steam, the two stood very close together.

Chen You could even smell the faint scent of soap pods emanating from her.

As Xu Qiuxue looked at the increasingly responsible and physically stronger young man in front of her, her heart pounded faster and faster.

[Xu Qiuxue's desire: She wants you to hug her. (Completion rewards 30 Desire Points.)]

The washing is almost done by now.

Upon seeing the desire, Chen You simply stood up.

"oops……"

Xu Qiuxue blushed deeply, quickly turned her back, twisted her hands nervously, and said in a flustered manner, "What are you doing? You're not wearing any clothes..."

Chen Youdu was speechless.

You've already used... like that.

They were even being coy and hesitant.

We won't indulge her.

He hugged Xu Qiuxue from behind: "Oh, right, I have something for you."

"What?"

Xu Qiuxue calmed her shy feelings and asked.

"this……"

Chen You pointed to the package beside the bed.

The new shoes I bought during the day were there.

After walking over, I took out my shoes.

"Here, I bought this for you and Yueyue. What do you think?"

"this……"

At first glance, Xu Qiuxue's eyes lit up; she fell in love with the shoes.

"It must be very expensive, right?"

"It's worth it no matter how expensive it is."

"Give it a try."

Chen You helped Xu Qiuxue sit down and knelt down to help her put on the clothes.

"It's so warm and cozy."

Xu Qiuxue felt a warmth in her heart, a sweet feeling as if she had eaten honey.

Then, looking at Chen You, she blushed and said, "Put your clothes on. You look terrible."

"Master's wife, are my abs ugly?"

Chen You patted his stomach and said.

"Ugh, all you do is insult people."

Xu Qiuxue knew perfectly well that Chen You was doing this on purpose, and she was speechless.

However, she didn't dislike it at all; on the contrary, she quite enjoyed Chen You's teasing behavior.

A moment later...
