"Mr. Lin, I am cultivating the ’Charm Girl Heart Skill’, and I can’t control the swelling breath inside me. I need you..." Si Miaoxue said urgently, her face as red as blood.

"What Heart Method?" Lin Miao was startled, not understanding what Si Miaoxue was saying. But Si Miaoxue was already beyond control, and she directly reached out an arm from the medicinal bath and dragged him inside.

"Oh no..."

Extreme yin gives birth to yang.

A surge of warm energy entered Lin Miao’s Dantian through their connection, instantly filling it. In shock, he could only guide this energy through his meridians.

Embrace Yang Heart Method activated.

The residual medicinal power from the bath was also stimulated, penetrating his skin and muscles. The two energies clashing made his body feel as if it were being gnawed by ants.

Lin Miao instantly resembled a cooked shrimp, with fine beads of blood seeping from his skin!

"Whoa!"

This was too much.

He shouldn’t have guided Si Miaoxue to unblock the Ren and Du Meridians; once she did, she completely lost control of her swelling power. As a result, she remembered her ’Charm Girl Heart Skill’ and transformed extreme yin into yang.

Unable to control this powerful force, she thought Lin Miao could bear it, so she pulled him over without a second thought to share it.

She transferred the force she couldn’t bear to Lin Miao, whose cultivation realm was too low, just at the Upper Grade Bone Forging Realm. Thus, he was forcibly driven to refine his marrow and cleanse impurities.

If he can endure it, the benefits are obvious. But if not, the result would be death by explosion.

No choice but to grit his teeth and endure the consequences of his actions.

In this situation, it’s either live together or ascend together.

No choice, Lin Miao could only forcibly accelerate his inner breath, guiding the energy to destroy, repair, destroy, repair in a cycle within his body. It’s like alternating hot and cold, an indescribable feeling. In the end, he operated solely on instinct, his nerves numbed to the pain.

Time ticked by, who knows how long.

Lin Miao stirred; he opened his eyes and saw Si Miaoxue. Her eyebrows furrowed, apparently reacting to his movement.

The medicinal bath was murky, devoid of any medicine smell, and the water had cooled. He stood up from the tub, put on his cloak, and lifted Si Miaoxue out as well.

"Uh, Mr. Lin, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to..." Si Miaoxue opened her eyes slightly, saying apologetically.

"I’m also at fault. How are you feeling now?" Lin Miao sighed. Had he not acted recklessly, Si Miaoxue might not have nearly exploded.

He overestimated his capabilities, aiming to climb too fast—a miscalculation that luckily didn’t end in a joke due to good fortune.

"I’m fine, just feel like I’m empty inside, like there’s nothing there." Si Miaoxue closed her eyes, feeling around.

"You haven’t gone mad and lost all your martial skills, have you..." Lin Miao felt a chill; if that were the case, it would be bad.

"I shouldn’t have; if I had gone mad, it wouldn’t feel like this. I seem to sense something different..." Si Miaoxue closed her eyes, saying, "I can see my heart and liver, intestines, and what’s below the intestines, like a door handle?"

"That might be... ahem, are you able to see internally? That’s not a door handle; it’s..." Lin Miao didn’t know how to explain, but he had to say it given the situation.

"Seems like it. What’s going on? My master didn’t mention this."

This demon woman can actually see internally.

Being able to internally view oneself is a level of cultivation achieved only at a certain stage, and he wasn’t sure what realm Si Miaoxue had reached.

"So, that’s where a baby is nurtured," Si Miaoxue realized after Lin Miao’s explanation. "Mr. Lin, should we have a baby too?"

Lin Miao froze. He wasn’t sure if Si Miaoxue was joking or serious. At his age, he had another growth spurt, but he could reproduce. But can he really do this now?

"We’ll wait for two more years."

"Wait for two years, do you mean to let me give birth after your senior sister?" Si Miaoxue, clever as ever, immediately understood what he meant.

"I’m still a sapling myself; what kind of seed do you think I can nurture into a child?"

Si Miaoxue couldn’t help but laugh at his fresh explanation—even at sixteen or seventeen years old, many had children, but to him, it became "a sapling". Yet, it seemed reasonable.

She had just been speaking offhandedly, without really considering it. She would hesitate if it truly came to it.

He escorted Si Miaoxue back to the loft room.

He even checked her pulse, finding no abnormalities. Her condition would need observation for a while.

As long as she can recover her cultivation, it’s enough.

As for him, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise; his cultivation reached the Bone Forging Great Perfection Realm, ready to advance to the Blood Fusion Realm.

Even the blood and marrow of his major bones had been refined once. In theory, he is in the Blood Fusion Realm, though not yet in cultivation.
