Chapter 257: I Consumed It All.

Duan Shu's request left Chen Tian stunned; he had never expected such a bold and daring request from her. He stood there in shock, trying to process what he had just heard.

Minutes passed as Chen Tian found himself sitting next to Su Bingxin, who was eagerly pinching his waist with a mischievous grin. Her glinting eyes made him realize she was holding him responsible for the situation.

Yin Yun wasn't any better; if you compared her crimson face to a ripe tomato, you wouldn't find any difference. She blushed furiously, clearly embarrassed by the unfolding situation.

Finally finding his voice, Chen Tian stammered out a response, unsure of how to proceed with this unexpected turn of events.

After a moment of stunned silence, he managed to speak. "I-I can't believe you would ask me something like that," he stammered, trying to understand Duan Shu's audacious request.

He even paused to consider her status as a Dao Emperor expert and the implications of his response, without any courtesy.

Duan Shu wasn't offended; she knew her request was bold and unconventional. So, she explained her reasons for needing his Yang Qi.

"That's it!" Chen Tian understood why Duan Shu wanted his Yang Qi. For Yin Yun to break through to the Meridian Opening Realm, she needed to concoct a Flame Pulse Pill, a top-notch Grade 4 pill close to Grade 5. For a 100% chance of success, she needed a strong Yang Qi.

Su Bingxin didn't seem surprised by Duan Shu's purpose. Duan Shu and Yin Yun had already arrived at her home and explained everything before Chen Tian returned.

"Just asking, how did you conclude that my Yang Qi is of good quality?" Chen Tian inquired, curious about Duan Shu's explanation.

Hearing his words, an explosion seemed to go off in Yin Yun's head. Her currently red face turned even redder. Turning to her master, her eyes widened. "Don't tell him!" she shouted in her mind, hoping to prevent Duan Shu from revealing their actions in Su Bingxin and his room.

If her eyes could shoot daggers, Duan Shu would have been on the floor by now. Her eyes darted between Chen Tian and Duan Shu, fear evident in her expression.

But Yin Yun clearly underestimated Duan Shu's boldness. "First, the smell of your Yang Qi and the pure energy it emitted were remarkable," Duan Shu said calmly.

"It's over!" Yin Yun thought to herself, feeling a sinking sensation in her stomach. "And second," Duan Shu continued, "the taste was delicious."

Silence hung in the air as Chen Tian's and the girls' hearts raced with panic. They had never expected Duan Shu to respond so boldly.

"The heck!" Chen Tian thought, his mind racing to process the situation. Su Bingxin's expression turned pale as she realized the implications of Duan Shu's words.

"She consumed his..." Such thoughts started popping into her mind.

Yin Yun didn't seem much better. "M-Master, did you consume his Yang Qi?" Yin Yun stammered, her voice barely audible, but for cultivators like them, every word was crystal clear.

Chen Tian's heart sank further as he saw the confirmation in Yin Yun's words.

"Of course I did. I needed to make sure that it's a good quality," she replied nonchalantly, causing Su Bingxin, Chen Tian, and Yin Yun to exchange glances.

The implications of Duan Shu consuming the Yang Qi were beginning to sink in.

Su Bingxin's hand pinching Chen Tian's waist tightened as they realized the full extent of Duan Shu's words.

"Bad egg," Su Bingxin pouted cutely. She couldn't believe that Chen Tian would be involved with Yin Yun's master.

Seeing her cute expression, Chen Tian couldn't help but chuckle. "You misunderstand something; I didn't do anything!" Chen Tian cried out internally.

Not to mention, he was surprised after learning about it. "How did this woman get her hands on my Yang Qi?" Chen Tian didn't know what to do next.

Then he looked at Yin Yun and realized something. "Don't tell me!" His expression changed as he finally understood the truth.

"I'm sorry!" Yin Yun apologized to Su Bingxin and Chen Tian for taking his Yang Qi without their knowledge. Initially, she didn't mean to, but after tasting it, she couldn't resist the temptation.

"Ah! I knew she noticed it!" Su Bingxin thought to herself, feeling a mix of embarrassment and anger. "It was your fault! I told you we shouldn't do that," Su Bingxin scolded Chen Tian.

Because that day, Chen Tian took her to bed, it was already morning, and they both spent hours together.

Su Bingxin looked down in shame, realizing that now Yin Yun and Duan Shu knew what they had done.

She couldn't blame Yin Yun since she herself had the same problem with Chen Tian's Yang Qi. The moment you taste forbidden fruit, you can't help but keep coming back for more.

"So that's how you got your hands on my Yang Qi, but still, to consume it is..." Chen Tian didn't know what to say, feeling confused.

"I'm really sorry, Brother Chen Tian, Sister Bingxin. I didn't mean for any of this to happen," Yin Yun apologized, tears welling up in her eyes.

"It's okay, I don't mind, Yin Yun," Bingxin said softly, her voice filled with compassion. "We all make mistakes."

"Really?" Yin Yun asked, looking up hopefully at Bingxin. "Yes, really," Bingxin replied with a reassuring smile.

Yin Yun then looked at Chen Tian, waiting to hear his response. Chen Tian took a deep breath before speaking, "I also don't mind." Sёarᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Chen Tian really didn't mind, since who would mind a woman consuming his essence? That was something any man wouldn't find hard to accept, but if you were gay, that was another story.

Yin Yun felt relieved to hear both Bingxin and Chen Tian's understanding and acceptance. She knew she had made a mistake, but their kindness meant the world to her.

With a sense of gratitude, Yin Yun thanked them both and promised to make it up to them in any way she could.

"Again, I'm so sorry. I will immediately return the remaining Yang Qi that I took from you," Yin Yun said with sincerity in her voice.

"N-No, that's not..." Chen Tian wanted to stop her, but before he could, Yin Yun turned to her master and humbly asked, "Master, can you give me back the remaining Yang Qi that I took from Sister Bingxin and Brother Chen Tian?"

Duan Shu remained silent for a moment, her face frozen in shock. She had not expected Yin Yun to return the Yang Qi she had taken.

"Master?" Yin Yun's gaze stayed fixed on Duan Shu, her eyes filled with determination. Finally, after a long pause, Duan Shu nodded slowly and said,

"I don't have it..." Her voice trailed off as she avoided eye contact with Yin Yun. Yin Yun's heart sank at the realization that her master had already used up the Yang Qi she

had taken.

"Did you use it already for the Flame Pulse Pill?"

Duan Shu shook her head after some hesitation.

For some reason and for the first time in her life with her master, Yin Yun saw something shocking. Her master's face was slightly red. This was completely out of character for the normally composed Duan Shu.

Yin Yun's concern grew as she realized that something was definitely wrong. "What happened, master?" she asked, reaching out to touch Duan Shu's arm gently.

"I..."

"I consumed it all."
