Chapter 17: Early Harmonious Spirit
Ning Fan went outside Seven Apricot City today while Zhihe walked silently two steps behind him with a fox fur coat on.
Ning Fan decided to take Zhihe out of the city for relaxation to ease the lingering sentimentality after three months of isolated cultivation. He was a cold and resolute person, so through evil cultivation and killing people, he could quickly integrate into the cultivation world and become a cultivator.
However, Zhihe was not like this. This little girl seemed to be incompatible with the entire cultivation world. Her heart was too benevolent and not fit for cultivation.
Seven Apricot City in the northern Yue Country was really a city made out of ice and tormented by the cold northern winds with fluttering snowflakes. There was not the least bit of green vegetation.
Even this was said to be ātreading the green,ā but there was no grass, only an endless snowfield.[1]Ā Zhihe wanted to fly a kite at this place, but in this freezing cold weather, how could she be in the moodā¦
āBig Brother Fan, why donāt we just go backā¦ā Zhiheās hands were frozen red from the cold. Back in the Seven Apricot Pavilion, she actually thought about coming out to get some air, but she was afraid that Ning Fan would catch a cold.
She stared at Ning Fan with her worried big eyes. Big Brother Fanās body was so thin and weak, please donāt catch a coldā¦ Aizz, she was already Big Brother Fanās wife so she needs to take good care of her husband.
āAre your hands cold? I will warm you up.ā Ning Fan felt tenderness towards her and gently grabbed Zhiheās small hands.
āBig Brother Fanā¦ In broad daylight, we shouldnāt be doing anythingā¦ā Zhihe quickly dodged but couldnāt pull back her hand.[2]
āWho is doing anything to you, you are thinking too much silly girlā¦ And if you are my wife, even if I do anything, you still want to stop it?ā
Ning Fan laughed a little bit. Only when he was with Zhihe would he find the carefreeness of being a mortal like in the past. He enjoyed staying with Zhihe because of the simple and ordinary feeling. The old monster taught him that people must live under the sun. Only this could wash the Evil Hearts to avoid suffering qi deviation and falling to evil.
Zhiheās white and cold hands allowed for Ning Fan to converge his murderous intent away from his heart and slowly become peaceful. Evil cultivators could not do without two things ā women and wines. This was another phrase the old monster taught him.
āBut I havenāt promised to marry youā¦ So I am still not considered your wife ah?ā Silly Xiao Zhihe muttered her words as weak protests, but she actually had long accepted this status in her heart.
Ning Fan only laughed at her words.
Your body already belongs to me, yet you are still not clear?
Ten miles north of Seven Apricot City, there was a canyon covered by snow and ice that was rarely visited by people. Ning Fan propped up an umbrella to block the wind and snow for Zhihe. The two of them strolled down the snow and went to the icy walls beneath the canyon.
The young man caught the girlās hand and began to fly the kite in the luminous icy walls beneath.
āLook, Big Brother Fan, it is flying, the kite is flyingā¦ā Zhihe was happy just like a mortal maiden.
Ever since she met Ning Fan, this was the first time she smiled with relief.
This pure smile pained Ning Fanās heart. After searching Wu Dongnanās memories, Ning Fan saw Zhiheās entire life.
There was no childhood nor smiles. After being captured and imprisoned in the All Pleasure School, it was only a life of gloominessā¦
āBig Brother Fan, you are really good to Zhihe. Zhihe is willing in this entire lifeā¦ for youā¦ for you to use me as a dual cauldronā¦ā Zhihe flying her kite high said with genuine happiness.
āSilly girl, you are not a dual cauldron, you are my wifeā¦ā
āBut I still havenāt decided to marry youā¦ā
āTruly a silly girlā¦ā
āYou knowā¦ā Zhiheās voice suddenly sank with a maidenās sorrow, āBefore meeting Big Brother Fan, I never hoped to live till the next dayā¦ At the All Pleasure School, I never cried even when people bullied me. The evil aunt said that if I cry even half a tear, she would kill meā¦ I might appear to be foolish, but I still had dreamsā¦ I longed for a life taken care of by someone properly, someone who carefully protects me from fear and hardship. Someone who shields me from having to suffer from miserable homelessness, someone who I can depend on when I lose my bearings, but I didnāt know when this person would appearā¦ To be able to be Big Brotherās dual cauldron, I already am satisfiedā¦ā
āYou are my wife!ā Ning Fan frowned and powerfully embraced Zhihe into his arms.
Dual cauldron ā such a terrible title.
He did not want his relationship with Zhihe to simply be the master and the dual cauldron.
It was getting dark and the dusky moonlight appeared with more vigorous winds and snows. There were no extravagant warmth-gathering lotus tents nor flickering red candles, only a simple woven mat tent on the ground as romance was in the air.
Ning Fanās arms were really warm. Zhiheās limpid, autumn, watery big eyes were full of tension. She suddenly realized what Big Brother Fan wanted to do.
āBig Brother Fan, this place, this place isnāt suitable for thatā¦ā
Before she could finish, Ning Fan stopped her sweet lips and started his invasion.
āYou are my wife!ā Ning Fanās gaze was resolute. He took off his black cloak and spread it on the ground. Then he picked up Zhihe and placed her on the black cloak as his hands were gently caressing her body.
Ning Fanās feeling towards Zhihe was a deep devotion. It was not only physical, not just love, but a never abandoning eternal pact of life and death.
Zhihe was a natural born Bewitching Physique. After three months of cultivating the āBeauty Returning Yin Method,ā she could suppress her sexual desires, but after being incited by Ning Fan, her eyes gradually became blurry. Inside this blurriness, there was a sense of tension as well as a hint of expectation.
She had already been intimate with Ning Fan twice, but Ning Fan was unconscious the first time and used brutish actions, leaving her with a painful memory. The second time, she was unconscious without any sensation so she didnāt remember any comfortable feelings.
This time was her first time embracing Ning Fan with a clear mind.
Ning Fanās kisses were sweet and his touches were pleasurableā¦ Why was it soā¦
Zhihe didnāt understand, she was confused about a lot of thingsā¦
The grand road of Yin and Yang ā dual cultivation, this was the cycle of humans. Many cultivators believed that cultivation requires one to protect their Origin Yang from leaking ā this was truly absurd. However, there were also numerous evil cultivators who believed that dual cultivation should steal from others to benefit the self ā this was also a huge mistake.
That was not cultivation, but a kind of escapism to hide away from the true feelings of the heartā¦
Ning Fan began to forget that this was dual cultivation. He was actually moved and became lost in Zhiheās charmingly soft bodyā¦
The two continued on with the moonlight on top and snow on the bottom. The wind and snow was cold, and only their bodies intertwining could keep them warmā¦
Even though it was not deliberate, under the effect of the Yin Yang Locket, Ning Fan still completed a round of dual cultivation.
The bottleneck of tenth level Vein Opening realm was broken at this moment.
Early Harmonious Spirit! Ning Fan only required less than four months before successfully breaking through! Such cultivation speed was enough to compare to the elite disciples from a few great sects!
The Black Evil Inflammation inside the body moved through the veins; this was the process of Harmonious Spirit. In general, each and every cultivatorās veins during the process of Harmonious Spirit could only integrate one type of spirit nature, and they could only use a spirit technique that belonged to this nature. Fire, Water, Metal, Wood, Earth, Thunder, and many moreā¦
Only special immortal veins could contain many different spirit natures.
The Black Evil Inflammation traveled through the veins. Without a doubt, Ning Fanās veins were imprinted with the Fire Spirit, and in the future when he used fire spirit techniques, their power would be much more powerful.
But to his surprise, inside the Yin Yang Evil Vein, there was a trace of freezing intent.
Because of the sex on the ground under the skyās dome, Ning Fan was able to absorb a trace of the heaven and earthās ice power.
A two element Harmonious Spirit cultivator!? Ning Fan moved his palm and a wisp of Black Evil Inflammation jumped out. The fire was on top with an iota of barely discernable white ice flameā¦
āThis is, Yin and Yangās harmonious power. Ice and fire cannot mix together but, because of this power, they forcibly fused together!ā Ning Fan recalled the Immortal Emperorās memories with a slightly astonished look.
The black and white Evil Flame in his palm alone was enough to kill a Harmonious Spirit, but Ning Fan faintly felt that this fireās power was one level higher than the pure black fire from before.
After a long time, Ning Fan smirked lightly and pointed his finger to light a fire to warm Zhihe next to his side after a long session of pleasure.
Early Harmonious Spirit with Yin Yang Controlling Fire. Today, he had a little power to protect himself, so he must also protect this one trace of warmth in his heart as well.
The only trouble was that his cultivation rose too fast, and it was difficult to avoid imperfection. He required further sharpening.
[1]Ā āTreading the greenā is a phrase meaning outing, going out, stroll
[2]Ā Another common belief in historical China. People shouldnāt have physical contacts or sex during the daylight, only at night
Excerpt from old version:
She felt her fox fur coat being taken off by Ning Fan and panically begged for mercy. She felt her shirt being undressed and her bra being pushed to the side. She quickly covered her breasts with her hands, but Ning Fan calmly and softly embraced themā¦ His hand ā once again ā reached under, making her paralyzed body lose its strength as she embarrassingly closed her eyesā¦ A hint of warmness caused her two legs to lose controlā¦
āDonāt lookā¦ Donāt touchā¦ Noā¦ Ummmā¦ā A soft moan at the wrong time incited Ning Fanās gaze. Zhihe was really alarmed, and anxious. She felt her body becoming weird as if there was something dripping outā¦
She watched Ning Fan taking off his clothes, revealing his thin white physique. Her eyes became faint and only felt that, at this moment, her Big Brother Fan was extremely handsomeā¦
āBig Brother Fan, Iām very uncomfortableā¦ā Her voice was like the apricot as it softly whimperedā¦
āWhere is it uncomfortable atā¦ This placeā¦?ā
Strange, so strange; it is clearly hurting, but why does it also feel so goodā¦
Zhihe didnāt understand. Her breathing became more frantic as she tightly embraced Ning Fanās neck. It was as if she wanted them to be closer and closerā¦
In her confusion, she didnāt care for her fragile body that was like the sad apricots in the snow, causing Ning Fan to become even more bewitched.
Ning Fan began to forget that this was a dual cultivation session, he truly felt the emotions and became lost amidst Zhiheās beautiful bodyā¦
āUuuā¦ Uhhā¦ā The panting caused the night curtain to be even more alluring.
A long time after, Zhiheās body started to tremble uncontrollably as it turned into a red shade.
A stream of pure spring suddenly flushed out and wettened the black cloak on the ground, accompanied by a faint sweet and bewitching fragrance of the flesh.
And Ning Fan also quietly shouted as he reached the end.
His relaxed body fell on top of Zhiheās body without letting go. However, the quiet snoring of Zhihe came from underneath as her blushed face was tired and fell asleep.
āSilly girlā¦ you are already asleep, but the night is so long, how can I make it through by myselfā¦ā Ning Fan sentimentally placed the clothing that was all over the ground on top of Zhihe while he was sitting naked and cross-legged in the snow.\n
