ds him by a pair of large hands.

“We’ve taken care of everything else.
Let’s continue where we left off,” Zu An whispered into her ear.

His tone was firm, leaving no room for her opinion.
Just like that, she was whisked away again.

Chaos swirled within Yun Yuqing’s mind.
This man was completely different from King Wu! King Wu was normally gentle and reserved, yet this man was direct and forceful!

For some reason, the masculine scent filling her nostrils was not the least bit offensive to her.
On the contrary, she felt a giddy anticipation.

However, she was still a shy and reserved lady at heart, which prompted her to resist him instinctively.
“I… I have to treat your wound first.”

“You can just do what you were doing earlier.
It won’t interfere at all.” Zu An carried her back without letting her explain any further.

Yun Yuqing’s mouth fell open slightly, her heart pounding out a steady beat.
She could only continuously console herself that all of this was for the sake of completing her mission.

…

After a while, Zu An noticed that his wound had already healed completely.
He reached out a hand to hold onto hers.
“Thank you Madam for the treatment.”

“I should be the one thanking you for saving my life.” A complicated set of emotions were running through Yun Yuqing’s heart.
This was the first time she had seen a man risk his life for her.

After all, given Zu An’s cultivation, that dark elf’s sword should have caused half of his body to explode, yet he still took the blow for her without any hesitation.

She didn’t know how to face the man in front of her.
Before, given her infatuation with her husband, she would have trusted in him to protect her as well.
After the events of the past few days, however, she knew that the most important thing to her husband was still himself.
He most likely wouldn’t have stepped in front of the sword for her.

Zu An carefully examined the beauty, who was just inches away from him.
Her soft, red lips seemed to draw him in.
He could no longer hold himself back, and pressed his lips towards hers.

Yun Yuqing instinctively backed away when she sensed his movements.

However, Zu An didn’t give up this time.
He continued to move towards her.
He could already sense that she was no longer rejecting him as forcefully as before.

In the end, their lips made contact.

Yun Yuqing really was well and truly frightened.
She struggled frantically, trying desperately to push away the man in front of her with her hands.

Unfortunately, he seemed indifferent to her efforts.

After a while, her arms seemed to grow weaker and weaker.
Eventually, her fingers interlaced with his, and she began to return his affection.

…

A long while later, Zu An kept his arms wrapped around this particular beauty as she trembled uncontrollably.
“Does Madam want to cultivate the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra for herself?”

“No…” Yun Yuqing replied instinctively.

“That’s good then.” Zu An laughed.
“Let me give you the chant, then.”

Yun Yuqing sat up straight.
Her pitch-black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, enhancing the radiance of her fair skin even more.
“This is your life-saving skill.
Are you really going to give it to me this easily?”

She finally realized that she had forgotten to sense the other party’s ki flow during the entire experience earlier.

However, she could tell that, even if she had tried to sense it, there was no way she would be able to figure it all out.
The Phoenix Nirvana Sutra was truly miraculous, and entirely different from other ordinary techniques.

“I’m already about to die anyway.
Since Madam has been kind enough to share her warmth with me, how can I not hold up my end of the bargain?” Zu An laughed.
He proceeded to give her the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra’s chant.

Of course, he hadn’t lost his head over sex, and had obviously modified the chant.
She was clearly doing this for King Wu’s sake—how could he let that ambitious fellow get his way?

After reciting it for her, he left her with a stark warning.
“Madam, don’t bother learning this technique yourself.
It isn’t suitable for women.”
