My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

Within the ice sculpture, the handsome man had his eyes tightly shut, his face calm, but his inborn domineering temperament, as if looking down upon the world, could still be felt through the ice.

Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were filled shock. She bit her lower lip and asked Mo Yan with difficulty: “He sealed himself in ice?”

“Yes. He almost lost control just now and sealed himself in ice when he almost lost consciousness.” Mo Yan’s light voice carried a bit of admiration.

“Ming Xiu!” Lou Mu Yan murmured to herself while holding the Foundation Establishment Pill tightly.

Her heart was deeply shaken. In order to not hurt her, this man actually harmed himself instead; he actually sealed himself in ice. This act was equivalent to suicide if it wasn’t controlled well.

It was the first time since Mo Yan met Lou Mu Yan that he felt such a big mood swing from her. The woman who had always been calm and composed could actually tremble lightly.

“He’s a very strong and confident man. Don’t worry, if he wasn’t certain, he wouldn’t be so stupid to seal himself in ice.”

Lou Mu Yan nodded and calmed herself down. It was an absolute lie if she said she wasn’t touched. This man used all his actions to prove to her that he respected her.

She held the pill in her hand and walked towards that ice sculpture. She half-squatted in front of the ice sculpture and stretched out her hand to caress the man’s handsome and enchanting face through the ice.

She sighed softly, and a gentle colour that had never appeared before rose in her eyes.

This man sure was good—he won her recognition so easily. She also had to admit right now that her heart moved. For the first time in her two lives, her heart moved for a man.

Then, Lou Mu Yan hugged the ice sculpture with both hands and the Fire Elemental Energy in her body flowed out incessantly. She mobilised all the Spiritual Energy within her to transform into flames, melting the ice in her embrace little by little.

[Drip, drip!] The ice sculpture was melted into droplets that kept dripping to the floor by the small tongues of flames made from Fire Elemental Energy.

Two hours later, the last layer of ice that separated the two of them was completely melted by the flames and tightening of her arms, she hugged Ming Xiu’s body.

But his body wasn’t as cold as imagined and was instead rolling with heat. The flush on his face grew deeper and deeper, like a human stove, as if, if it weren’t suppressed, it would explode.

While feeling the fiery body of the other party, she also felt that was was another stronger force that travelled around his entire body, suppressing the heat of desire that constantly rose from his lower abdomen.

It were as if a stone was dropped into the lake of Lou Mu Yan’s heart, creating circles upon circles of ripples.

She quickly let go of Ming Xiu, fed the pill in her hand into his mouth, then stepped back and meditated not far away from him to restore her Spiritual Energy.

Just when Ming Xiu was feeling that his whole body was about to be ignited, he was suddenly embraced by a soft body with a faint fragrance of medicine, then a pill entered his mouth and instantly melted.

The medicinal effects of the pill flowed down along the meridians to his dan’tian area. When he felt that his consciousness was a little fuzzy, he heard the woman’s clear voice, that was pleasant to the ear as if sweet spring water, in his Sea of Consciousness.

“Foundation Establishment Pill, guide to the dan’tian to refine, with no distractions, first perform three macrocosmic orbits, then mobilise the Elemental Energy in your entire body to your dan’tian to filter and purify, then…”

Ming Xiu’s brows knitted tightly, calmed his mind, gradually tossed away that unbearable feeling of desire and heat, and followed Lou Mu Yan’s telepathic words to start to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

The medicine took effect slowly as the Elemental Energy quickly poured into his dan’tian from his entire body, filtered, then spread out again. A refreshing feeling overflowed from the meridians all over his body, making him enter a state of cultivation as if there were no one around him.

Lou Mu Yan discovered that Ming Xiu had quickly entered the state of refining and a smile appeared on her lips.

This man’s perseverance and self-confidence exceeded her imagination. When she used Fire Elemental Energy to melt the ice around Ming Xiu’s body, she discovered that he had long been prepared. Even if she didn’t do anything, he could still thaw himself, albeit ending with internal injuries, but he would allow the icy air to freeze all the toxins in his body. But by doing this, it would also greatly reduce his cultivation base.

Even when the feeling of burning flames struck, this guy could still enter a focused state of cultivation—his heart and control were truly abnormal. Even if his cultivation base dropped, she believed that without too long, Ming Xiu could restore his strength, and perhaps be even stronger.

The moment Lou Mu Yan glanced over, she found that the flush on Ming Xiu’s face had receded, and traces of black smoke emerged from the top of his head. His red clothes were also blackened by the impurities that were forced out of his body. Her eyes couldn’t help but reveal a touch of astonishment.

Wasn’t this man’s talent just too strong—it only took two hours for him to finish cleansing his marrow using the refined Foundation Establishment Pill, and even discharged all the impurities and poisonous gas in his body. Such a strong talent could definitely be ranked in the top ten in the Spirit World and had even more potential than those Almighty Immortal Cultivators with rare Spiritual Roots.

Feeling a flow of energy from Ming Xiu, she knew that he wanted to use the Foundation Establishment pill to stabilise his cultivation base, so she poured a Foundation Establishment Pill out from the bottle and fed it to herself, then guided its medicinal effects into her dan’tian to refine.

Then, a pure energy wandered around the meridians of her entire body, finally turning into a torrent, all rushing towards her dan’tian.

Time passed bit by bit, and two days flew by in the blink of an eye. The green mist that wound around Lou Mu Yan’s dan’tian doubled in size, and inside her body, it also seemed to have undergone a change so drastic it was as if the Heaven and earth had flipped.

Establishing a foundation was a watershed for Cultivators. If one couldn’t cross it then they wouldn’t be able to improve for the rest of their lives. After the Foundation Establishment Stage, one would be able to comprehend the Laws of the Heavenly Path and lay the foundation for the Core Formation and Nascent Soul more deeply.

After running the pure and dense Spiritual Energy in her body in a macrocosmic orbit, Lou Mu Yan seemed to have found the feeling of when she was cultivating as an Immortal again. A sense of security born from her heart filled the depths of her Soul.

With her Soul sublimated, and the medicinal effects having expelled all the impurities from the washing of the marrow by the Marrow Cleansing Pill last time, Lou Mu Yan successfully established her foundation. Her Sword Master’s cultivation base also took a step ahead and advanced to Middle-Phase Sword Spirit.

She opened her eyes and found that aside from Mo Yan in the cave, there was only the Jiao egg beside her. She turned her head and scanned the place where Ming Xiu sat before, but there was no one.

“He went out half a day ago.” Mo Yan saw the befuddlement in Lou Mu Yan’s eyes and said to resolve her confusion.

A softness rose on Lou Mu Yan’s face, and she reached out to rub Mo Yan’s furry head, which attracted a cold glare from the other party. She couldn’t help but laugh out aloud, “Mo Yan, thank you for that drop of blood essence.”

She had already noticed that Mo Yan had incorporated his blood essence into the Foundation Establishment Pill. When she was refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, she even felt a pure Demonic Beast power integrating with her meridians. When she was washing the marrow and removing impurities, it also merged with her bone marrow. Her body’s toughness also heightened a level and the Flesh Refining Method had also reached a bottleneck.

“Where’s the need for politeness between you and me.” Mo Yan turned his head, feeling slightly awkward as he uttered these words.

Lou Mu Yan’s heart warmed, and she wanted to reach out and rub his had again but was avoided by him. She restrained her smile and said: “I’ll refine the pill for you later.”

The power contained in that drop of blood essence of Mo Yan’s probably consumed all his recent cultivation. Lou Mu Yan felt indebted, so she just wanted to quickly refine the pill that can improve his cultivation for him to refine.

“Alright!”

As soon as the words of the one human one beast fell, Ming Xiu, dressed in his flamboyant red clothes, flew down from the hole on the top of the cave that was created by the bombardment of thunder. He walked straight to Lou Mu Yan, his gaze deep and unfathomable as the endless sea while revealing a bewitching smile.

“Woman, you’re awake!”
