The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 872 The Insincere Woman!

Despite Li Qing’s persistent and heartfelt persuasion, he ultimately failed to convince Tian Yue’e.

She could coordinate very skillfully with any of Li Qing’s other women, but with Tian Yueqin, her own sister, just the thought of that scene filled her face with resistance.

But the very thing Tian Yue’e resisted was precisely what Li Qing most wanted to see.

Though he hadn’t convinced Tian Yue’e today, Li Qing was not about to give up on this matter.

To have the pair of sisters fall into his arms and then to abandon the effort, would be an affront to all reason. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

While Tian Yue’e and the others went to freshen up, Li Qing resumed his stance of holding the primal position, entering a state of cultivation where he forgot both himself and the world around him.

He wanted to take advantage of his current heightened emotions and seriously cultivate for a while to see if there were any benefits.

Although the sensation of pain wouldn’t really diminish just because of his current state.

What if he could feel it a bit less subjectively?

But as soon as he started the cultivation technique, Li Qing instantly despaired.

It was utterly useless; the pain was still just as intense!

Though the technique was of Heaven Rank, many who saw it regarded it as if it were dregs, and not without reason.

If a cultivator didn’t have an exceptionally strong will, they’d likely struggle to persist even through a single Small Circulation.

Li Qing felt that his will should be considered strong, at least in enduring pain he should have some stamina.

Yet, faced with this cultivation technique, he constantly thought about giving up every single moment.

Nevertheless, Li Qing still held onto a sliver of obsession in his heart; he had not truly entertained the thought of mastering this technique.

He simply focused on progressing a little further, then just a little more beyond that.

Maintaining this persistence, bit by bit, he kept the technique running for two Small Circulations.

And at this time, his body was truly nearing its limit.

Amidst the intense pain that seemed to come from both inside and outside, his body felt like it could shatter at any moment.

On the verge of giving up, Li Qing held on a bit longer.

His eyes reddened, he gritted his teeth, wanting to see if he could push through another Small Circulation to complete the cycle of Grand Circulation.

In fact, Li Qing had somewhat grown accustomed to the pain of the flesh by now.

But that feeling as if a drill was boring into his bones, that was truly crushing him.

This kind of pain, Li Qing felt, must surely rank at the highest level of pain.

Without personal experience and comparison, one has no right to speak on the matter, and now he felt he had quite the authority to speak on it.

From skin to internal organs, to bones, he had been feeling all the pain since the moment he began running the technique.

This pain didn’t come in stages, but all at once.

Muttering to himself, Li Qing stabilized the technique’s operation and began trying to divert his attention.

His thoughts made a full circle, coming back to Tian Yue’e and the pair of sisters.

Thinking of the two of them together, touching and playfully teasing each other, now that would truly be death by stimulation.

That feeling, just the mere thought of it filled Li Qing with an unparalleled excitement.

Such matters had long since become a part of his life, so one could say that Li Qing’s immunity was quite strong now.

But the sisters, Tian Yueqin and Tian Yue’e, had truly managed to ignite his passion today.

It brought back to him that sensation he had when he first became intimate with Tian Yue’e.

However, turning this fantasy into reality would require a bit more effort from Li Qing, who felt he needed to think of a strategy.

Distracting oneself was indeed effective; the pain began to come in intermittent bursts.

Think for a bit, hurt for a bit, hurt for a bit, think for a bit.

In the midst of this roller-coaster experience, Li Qing completed the circulation of the third Small Circulation, allowing the Undying Technique to run through a Grand Circulation successfully.

The moment this small goal was achieved, the breath that Li Qing was holding suddenly released, and without any warning, he collapsed with a loud thud.

He hadn’t even reacted—his willpower relaxed, and all he saw was complete darkness descending upon him.

By the time he woke up, it was already the next morning.

Jing Yan was sleeping beside him.

It seemed like she had already awakened a while ago, propping up her body with her elbow and quietly watching him.

She wore a pure white bellyband, embroidered with a few isolated plum blossoms.

However, the creator of this bellyband must have been a master painter, as within the white silk, nothing else was embroidered but these sole plum blossoms, evoking the feeling of solitary plums standing amidst a snowy landscape.

Especially when worn, this feeling was accentuated even more.

The plum blossoms were positioned right on Jing Yan’s right breast, the heavy fullness supporting the bellyband gave the flowers a sense of form, making them appear more vivid and adding an extra charm.

Li Qing fiddled lightly with the small nub on the rise, "You’ve been awake for a while?"

Jing Yan’s cheeks lightly flushed, and she uttered softly, "Not for long, I’ve been a bit worried about your condition."

Li Qing assessed his internal situation, "My condition is pretty good, it seems like a breakthrough is imminent. Though the Undying Skin isn’t very effective, this cultivation technique seems to be helping a lot with my realm advancement."

"Just Qi Cultivation Stage, as long as you train diligently, along with this stone bed and elixirs, your progression should be very rapid," said Jing Yan. "Honestly, husband, your process is considered rather slow."

Li Qing immediately became withdrawn.

"Should it have been much faster?" he asked, still not quite willing to give up.

Jing Yan smiled gently and nodded, "For most cultivators, with the aid of the stone bed and those elixirs, they wouldn’t need to train diligently to advance. All they would need is to take some time to consolidate and counteract the side effects of the elixirs."

"Advancing with the help of elixirs, although one’s realm would increase, the strength is far less substantial than what is gained through diligent training; the foundation is not stable. Husband, in this aspect, you are far surpassing others. Given the current robustness of your spiritual power, you’re already close to the Foundation Establishment Stage, far beyond the Qi Cultivation Mid-stage."

"After hearing so much, I finally heard something somewhat favorable to me!" Li Qing said with a bitter smile. "So, with my current condition, my actual strength could be considered at the Peak of Qi Cultivation, right?"

"You could roughly understand it that way, but husband, your strength progression is indeed very slow!" Jing Yan lightly chuckled. "However, there’s no need to be overly anxious, husband. This has its pros and cons, but as long as you continue your diligent practice, it will undoubtedly be a good thing."

"I can tell, you’re insinuating that I’m not being diligent enough," Li Qing sighed woefully. "It looks like I really need to go into serious seclusion for a while. If this carries on, I’m going to be despised to death by all of you."

Jing Yan’s gaze was gentle as she looked at Li Qing and laughed softly, "I didn’t mean to despise you, husband. You have been training quite diligently. But, arranging a period of seclusion... that can indeed be set up. You could organize things at home and outside for us."

Li Qing: ...

Women who say one thing and mean another!
