Chapter 260: Past Events (Caught an Adulterer)
Silent all night.
The next morning, the sunlight shone into the house through the curtains, bringing a touch of warmth and brightness to the entire room.
A nimble fox jumped down from the roof and landed steadily on the windowsill. It grasped the edge of the windowsill tightly with its small claws, and then pushed open the window of the room with all its strength.
"Hey, hey, they caught an adulterer! They caught an adulterer! Let me see what these two are doing?" The fox murmured excitedly, with a bit of cunning in its voice. Then, it transformed itself and returned to its human form. Kitsuzaigong climbed up the windowsill carefully, and then tiptoed into the room.
At this moment, Chen Yue was lying on the bed weakly, his eyes were blank, as if he had lost all his vitality. His face was as pale as paper, and his expression was haggard, like a person whose vitality had been drained. His lips trembled slightly, but he could not make any sound.
In sharp contrast, Zhen sat quietly by the bed, looking relaxed, with a satisfied light in her eyes. After a whole night of hard work, she felt endless power surging in her body, as if she was glowing with new vitality and energy.
"That's not how you use your god's body! Did you take a fancy to the Yang energy in my body last night? You're trying too hard!"
Chen Yue smiled helplessly, looking at the energetic Zhen, he knew that he had "overdrawn". Last night, he showed Zhen an ancient and mysterious ritual called "teaching and training", which aims to integrate the power of both parties to achieve a certain degree of sublimation. However, this ritual consumes a lot of energy for the performer, especially for a being like him who is not a pure god.
"It seems that I still overestimated my ability..." Chen Yue laughed at himself, but the determined light in his eyes did not diminish at all. He knew very well that the battle last night, although it cost him a huge price, was an extremely important turning point for him and Zhen.
"Are you okay?" Zhen was full of concern. She slowly walked to the bedside and sat down, reaching out her hand and gently stroking Chen Yue's face. In the depths of her eyes, she revealed endless tenderness and affection, as if she wanted to use all her love to smooth the haggard face in front of her.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, but I do need to take good care of myself for a while." Chen Yue smiled faintly. Although he was exhausted, he could not hide his inner joy. Because at this moment, he knew that the relationship between him and Zhen had surpassed the boundaries of ordinary friends. They had become an indispensable existence in each other's lives.
"The cells have been injected into the body. You can try my ability later to see if you can sense anything. If my guess is correct, you should be able to feel some changes. In addition, do you feel that there seems to be one more person in the room?"
As soon as Chen Yue finished speaking, the air around him seemed to freeze, and the originally silent space was suddenly filled with a strange atmosphere. Zhen raised his head alertly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, scanning the surroundings.
The figure of Hu Zhaigong walked out of the dark corner of the room like a ghost. Her steps were light and graceful, like a cunning fox sneaking in the dark. She had a sly smile on her face, which made people alert.
"Oh, I'm so sorry to interrupt your sweet time." Husaigong said softly, with a hint of teasing in her tone. She looked back and forth between Chen Yue and Zhen, as if looking for some interesting clues.
Chen Yue and Zhen looked at each other, and both saw helplessness and embarrassment in each other's eyes. They had never expected that Hu Zhaigong would suddenly appear at this time, and break into their room in such an abrupt way.
"Saigong, what are you doing here?"
"Oh? Guess what I'm here for? I'm curious about what you did last night. I heard some very interesting noises!" Kitsuzai blinked and looked at the two of them with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Chen Yue and Zhen's faces flushed with embarrassment. They naturally knew what Hu Zhaigong was referring to, but how could they easily say such a thing?
"We...we are just practicing." Chen Yue stammered, trying to find an excuse to get away with it. As he spoke, he used his eyes to signal Zhen not to speak.
However, Hu Zhaigong didn't seem to be ready to give up. She looked at the two of them with a smile and continued to ask, "Oh? Practice? What kind of practice requires you to stay together all night? And it makes such a loud noise? Will the baby be born in nine months?"
Hearing this, Zhen finally couldn't help but say, "What nonsense are you talking about! How can it be so fast! No... I mean, how can it be possible to give birth?"
Hu Zhaigong covered his mouth and laughed: "I'm not talking nonsense. Look at the way you two look now. It's obvious that you just went through a big battle! But I'm quite curious, how did you practice? Can you teach me too?"
Facing Hu Zhaigong's relentless pressure, Chen Yue and Zhen were a little overwhelmed. They looked at each other and secretly complained in their hearts. This Hu Zhaigong was really too difficult to deal with. It seemed that she would not give up until she made things clear today.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't tease you two anymore. Really, how do you feel? Did he not bully you?"
Kitsusai Gong stopped his teasing tone and looked at Zhen seriously, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
Zhen was slightly stunned, then he understood Hu Zhaigong's intention. She was concerned about whether he had suffered any harm because of this "cultivation".
"I'm fine, Saimiya. Chen made an appointment with him... He was very nice to me." Zhen replied in a low voice, a blush on his face.
"Uh...did you ask the wrong question? Is this how you treat your brothers? Look at me like this, it's obvious that she's bullying me!"
Chen Yue interrupted with a smile, trying to divert Hu Zhaigong's attention. But Hu Zhaigong was unmoved. She smiled lightly, shook her head and said, "I don't believe you will be bullied. I know your strength. However, since you are already together, get along well."
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. However, as a friend, I still want to remind you not to overindulge yourself. Some things should be done in moderation!" After saying this, Hu Zaigong turned and left the room.
"Oh, there's one more thing. Really, you screamed so excitedly and loudly last night!"
