Chapter 333: Chapter 216: King Changping

Li Mengyao called out a few times, but saw no reaction from Fang Yue.

Then, she clenched her jaw, hoisted Fang Yue onto her back, and sped out of the forest.

~~~~~~

An hour later, Fang Yue slowly regained consciousness. He felt himself lying in a soft embrace, a delicate fragrance wafting to his nose—it was Li Mengyao.

Remembering what happened last night, Fang Yue gave a wry smile. ’I can’t believe this girl ended up saving me.’

’And I’m even sleeping in her arms!’

"COUGH COUGH..."

Fang Yue coughed violently. His throat felt incredibly dry, like a desert, and there was a fiery, stinging pain.

He looked up to see Li Mengyao gazing at him, her pretty face crimson and her eyes shy.

"You’re awake?" Seeing Fang Yue open his eyes, Li Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief. She quickly helped him lie flat and gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Are you okay?" she asked softly.

"I’m fine."

Fang Yue shook his head. Gazing at Li Mengyao, who was so close, and smelling her faint, delicate scent, he couldn’t help but gulp. He felt something soft beneath him and was suddenly a little embarrassed.

’This girl’s... are kinda big...’

"You..."

Seeing Fang Yue’s burning gaze, Li Mengyao was both shy and vexed. She gave him a push and said with a pout, "What are you looking at?"

As the words left her mouth, Li Mengyao’s pretty face flushed, and even her ears turned bright red.

Fang Yue gave an awkward laugh and sat up.

It was only then that he realized what Li Mengyao was wearing: a simple, plain-colored dress. Her two snow-white, straight legs were bare, her skin as smooth and supple as milk, making one want to reach out and touch them.

The temptation made Fang Yue swallow hard a few times.

Seeing this, a blush crept onto Li Mengyao’s face. She quickly pulled a nearby blanket over herself, covering the crucial parts.

"Thank you for saving me. I owe you for this," Fang Yue said earnestly.

’If Li Mengyao hadn’t arrived in time, I’m afraid I would have met a grim end.’

"It was nothing," Li Mengyao said, shaking her head. She looked at Fang Yue’s young, handsome face and asked with concern, "Are you sure you’re okay?"

"Heh, just a flesh wound!" Fang Yue chuckled, shrugging it off.

His constitution was far superior to that of an ordinary person. Although his injuries had been severe, he was recovering quickly. At this point, he felt he was already mostly healed.

"You must be hungry. I’ll go make you some food," Li Mengyao said softly, her head lowered, her voice barely a whisper.

Fang Yue nodded. He was indeed a little hungry.

After that, Li Mengyao got up, got dressed, and left the room.

"Hm?"

But just then, Fang Yue suddenly felt the Primordial Qi in his body become much more active. It had a newfound nimbleness, as if he had been completely reborn, and his whole body was brimming with power.

’What’s going on?’

Fang Yue was stunned. He was injured and should have been weak. Why did his Cultivation Method feel so much smoother when he circulated it? Even the speed at which his Primordial Qi surged had increased significantly.

This change puzzled him.

’But then again, Li Mengyao seemed a bit off just now. Did something happen to her?’ At this moment, Fang Yue recalled something.

A moment ago, Li Mengyao’s skin was flushed, and there was sweat in her hair. She had clearly just gone through a fierce battle.

At this thought, Fang Yue’s brow furrowed slightly.

But it soon smoothed out. ’Whatever. No matter what, I need to focus on recovering first.’

Fang Yue sat cross-legged on the bed and quietly recuperated for a moment before entering a state of cultivation.

A moment later.

BOOM!

Suddenly, Fang Yue felt a strange pulse transmit through his body. Immediately after, a vast torrent of Primordial Qi surged forth, washing over every acupoint he had.

This Primordial Qi was warm and gentle, comfortably nourishing all the meridians and cells in his body.

In just a few breaths, Fang Yue felt his exhausted body instantly fill with power. At the same time, the meridians within him grew tougher, as if suffused with potent, explosive strength.

’My strength has actually broken through to the late stage of Qi Sensing!’

After a brief moment of Sensing, Fang Yue discovered

that his strength had actually risen by a whole level, reaching the late stage of Qi Sensing.

One had to understand that between the early and late stages of Qi Sensing was an entire realm—the difference was like that between the heavens and the earth!

Feeling the boundless Primordial Qi within him, Fang Yue had the urge to throw back his head and let out a long roar.

He never expected that before passing out, he was only in the early stage of Qi Sensing. Yet after a period of unconsciousness, he had advanced to the late stage, his power more than doubling!

’As expected, danger is the best place to cultivate! Fortune favors the bold!’ Fang Yue sighed to himself.

Then, Fang Yue composed himself and continued to cultivate.

An hour later, Fang Yue slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and finally stopped cultivating.

"Haaa..."

He opened his eyes, and a sharp, cold glint flashed within them. The very air around him seemed to warp faintly, a testament to the formidable power of his physical body.

"Late stage of Qi Sensing..."

Fang Yue stood up and clenched his fists. His bones let out a sound like roasting beans, a crisp series of CRACKS and POPS.

At that moment, Fang Yue felt his entire body coursing with explosive power.

This was especially true within him, where a ceaseless stream of Primordial Qi surged through his limbs and torso, tempering his muscles, bones, and even his internal organs.

Just then, the door opened

, and Li Mengyao walked in carrying a tray of food.

It was a simple meal—a pot of thin porridge and three wild eggs—but the aroma was exquisite.
