Chapter 74 - How Creative

She opened her eyes with a few coughs.

“Where am I?” murmured Luo Qianqian.

“Great, you are awake, how are you feeling?”

‘Why am I hearing Murong Yun’s voice?’

Luo Qianqian took a closer look at the man who was holding her in his chest, ‘It is Murong Yun!’

“It’s you, I’m fine, what are you doing here, I think you are going to court today.”

Murong Yun looked sulky, he couldn’t bare the thought what if he hadn’t show up in time just now.

‘Sun Zhe can’t help her, what’s to become of her then?’

“It’s already afternoon, Qianqian.” answered Murong Yun, his voice controlled.

‘What? It’s already afternoon? How long had I practiced expiration and inspiration!’ Luo Qianqian was utterly surprised.

Sun Zhe looked at Murong Yun and greeted him, he felt so lucky that Murong Yun showed up in time for his heart was still fluttering with fear thinking about he couldn’t help Luo Qianqian out.

Sun Zhe was shocked as well, ‘How could this girl have Internal Chi at the first time she practised expiration and inspiration, this is almost impossible. It’s just she doesn’t have the right power to control the chi yet, that’s why the chi took over her and controlled her, it was such an imminent peril!’

It took Sun Zhe a month to feel that Internal Chi and two months to master it, and it just took Luo Qianqian a day?

No, it was two hours to be accurate.

It baffled Sun Zhe why this girl felt such strong Chi the first time she practised, he mulled over and the only explanation was Luo Qianqian was just made for practising martial arts.

“What happened to me just now?” asked Luo Qianqian, she moved her limbs, she felt so comfortable and energetic, no trace of pain. It was like that was just a dream that she was feeling so painful and spat blood.

Murong Yun touched her cheek with tenderness, “I was worried sick.”

Sun Zhe exclaimed in his hear, ‘Murong Yun is such a great cultivator, he tamed and drove the strong Chi in Luo Qianqian’s body without doing any harm to Luo Qianqian’s body!’

Luo Qianqian scratched her head, “Murong Yun, what happened? Please tell me.”

“You were practising expiration and inspiration, but the Chi controlled you and you were almost torn into pieces by that strong flow.” said Murong Yun, his voice tight, controlled, but the concern was plain on his face.

“Me? Torn into pieces?” Luo Qianqian’s eyes were wide open.

‘But I’m just a beginner, from the little bit I know, only the highly cultivated will run into situations like this, but today is my first day!’

“Was it that bad? Torn into pieces by the Chi?” asked Luo Qianqian, her voice shaking.

Murong Yun lowered his head and nodded, he couldn’t bare the thought what if he hadn’t show up in time just now.

“But I don’t even have Internal Chi, how was it possible that I was controlled by it?” Luo Qianqian couldn’t believe it.

“Who says you don’t have it?” asked Murong Yun.

Luo Qianqian was dumbfounded, ‘Does Murong Yun mean I have Internal Chi?’

Luo Qianqian started to practise expiration and inspiration and feel the breath, to her surprise, she could feel a warm flow in her pubic region.

Murong Yun picked her up from the ground and stopped her, “That’s enough for the day, no more practising.”

Luo Qianqian shook her head, “No, I haven’t figured it out yet.”

She remembered acupoints where Murong Yun’s Internal Chi hit just now, she was confident she would do better this time.

Murong Yun looked at the blood on the ground and grabbed Luo Qianqian’s hand, “Qianqian, listen to me this time, please.”

Luo Qianqian saw the pain in Murong Yun’s eyes, she couldn’t reject him any further.

Murong Yun wasn’t good at expressing emotions, but the pain in his eyes when he saw Luo Qianqian’s blood didn’t escape her.

‘Is he feeling my pain? I don’t want to make him sad.’ thought Luo Qianqian.

Murong Xue was amazed, ‘My sister-in-law feels Internal Chi already? On her first day? I felt nothing but relaxed just now, but look at my sister-in-law! How great is that! But it looks dangerous too, she spatted blood!’

“Sister-in-law, if you really think this over, it is very dangerous, you can always practice more after you get some good rest.” said Murong Xue cheerfully.

With that Murong Xue looked for Sun Zhe’s support, “Am I right, Senior Disciple?”

Sun Zhe nodded repeatedly in approval, “You are right, Princess Eleventh. Luo Qianqian, what you need now is some good rest, you better make sure you are fully recovered before you practise, any sequela from this might cripple your ability in cultivating.”

Luo Qianqian nodded, “You have a point, Senior Disciple.”

Murong Yun ignored Luo Qianqian’s carriage and took her directly to his own carriage.

“Li, you back home first.” Feng Qing ordered carter.

Murong Xue went back to Imperial Palace with Lvluo.

Feng Qing drove Murong Yun’s carriage on his initiative.

Feng Qing admired Luo Qianqian even more now, he was confident Her Highness would become a great cultivator in no time.

It took him about a month to have the first feel of Internal Chi, but look at Her Highness, not even one day.

Murong Yun asked his maid to serve Luo Qianqian to take a bath in his hot spring and he himself supervised a page to brew Luo Qianqian herbal medicine.

Murong Yun coaxed Luo Qianqian to have the medicine, but Luo Qianqian frowned on seeing the liquid, ‘It must be bitter.’

“Qianqian, be a good girl now, just drink it, you will feel so much better later.”

Luo Qianqian stepped back and shook her head, “You know what, I’m already feeling so much better, I don’t think this medicine is necessary, but thank you for your concern.”

Murong Yun put on a gentle smile, “Qianqian, this medicine will only do you good.”

Luo Qianqian pouted, “But Murong Yun, I’m already feeling so much better. I don’t need it and I don’t want it.”

Murong Yun raised one eyebrow and asked, “Are you sure you are not going to take it?”

Luo Qianqian shook her head, looking determined.

Murong Yun took a sip of the medicine and walked to Luo Qianqian, he grabbed Luo Qianqian’s shoulder and kissed her… …

A bitter kiss!
