Chapter 364: Husband, How Do You Feel?

“Qinger, how do you feel?”

Watching his wife drink the juice made from the rootless fruit, Lin Xun’s heart began to grow tense.

If this rootless fruit had any serious side effects…

Then even if his identity were exposed, Lin Xun would not let even the slightest accident happen to Qinger.

“I feel…” Jiang Qingshang nodded, “I feel it’s quite delicious.”

“Uh… besides being delicious?”

“Besides being delicious?” Jiang Qingshang blinked her eyes. “But isn’t juice just judged on its taste? Is there something different about this cup of juice?”

“Uh, what I mean is…” Lin Xun thought for a moment, “I specifically asked the palace maid to add some body-warming herbs to nourish your body. Does Qinger feel any warm sensation?”

Jiang Qingshang closed her eyes and felt carefully. “It seems… not.”

“Then how about drinking some more?”

Lin Xun was somewhat puzzled.

Why wasn’t there any effect?

Could it be that this rootless fruit was fake?

Or did it have to be drunk in its entirety to take effect?

Surely the rootless fruit couldn’t be juiced?

That shouldn’t be the case, right?

Listening to Lin Xun’s words…

Even though Jiang Qingshang felt the taste of the juice was a bit strange…

It was her husband’s good intentions after all, so Jiang Qingshang still slowly sipped it.

As long as it was something her husband gave her, she would consume it all.

After drinking a few more mouthfuls, Jiang Qingshang’s eyes glanced at the grapes on the table, her eyes shimmering in the candlelight.

“Husband, these grapes were sent as tribute from the Western Regions. You should try some too.”

“Oh, alright.”

Lin Xun picked up a grape and put it in his mouth.

Hmm, the taste of these grapes was indeed not bad.

He ate a few more.

Lin Xun ate several in one go.

While sipping the juice, Jiang Qingshang nervously watched her husband eat the grapes.

However, what made her a bit annoyed was…

Why did her husband always manage to skillfully avoid the grape that contained the essence of the rootless fruit?

“Let Qinger feed you, husband.”

Jiang Qingshang couldn’t wait any longer. Her slender, scallion-like fingers picked up that specific grape and fed it to Lin Xun’s lips.

“But Qinger, I’m a bit full…”

“Just eat this one. Husband, open your mouth.”

“Alright then.”

Lin Xun opened his mouth and ate the grape his wife fed him.

Whether it was psychological or not, Lin Xun felt that this grape Qinger fed him was much sweeter.

“Husband… how does husband feel?”

This time, it was Jiang Qingshang’s turn to watch her husband nervously.

“Very moist, very sweet, and it has no seeds. It’s truly worthy of being a tribute from the Western Regions,” Lin Xun evaluated objectively.

Speaking of which, had the Western Regions already cultivated seedless grapes?

But hearing this in her heart, the young girl wished she could lift her foot and kick Lin Xun’s shin.

I’m not asking how it tastes!

“Husband… does husband not have… any special feeling?”

“Special feeling?”

Lin Xun savored it for a moment.

“It seems not… Could it be that these grapes are some special variety?”

“That…” Jiang Qingshang’s beautiful eyes wandered slightly, “The palace maid sisters said that these grapes are watered daily with medicinal juice, which has the effect of invigorating the blood.”

“…”

To be honest, as for whether it had the effect of invigorating the blood, Lin Xun couldn’t feel it right now.

But watering them daily with medicinal juice—Lin Xun always felt that this was probably some kind of sickness.

But the next moment, Lin Xun’s brow furrowed slightly. He felt a warm current circulating within his Dantian, and his body gradually warmed up.

No way, could these grapes watered with precious medicinal juice really have an effect?

This isn’t scientific.

But it is very much like cultivation.

It wasn’t just Lin Xun.

As Jiang Qingshang finished the last sip of juice from the glazed cup, she also felt her lower abdomen grow warm, as if she had drunk a warm soup.

A strange feeling even crept into the young girl’s heart.

“Husband.”

In Lin Xun’s arms, Jiang Qingshang looked up, her slender arms hooking around Lin Xun’s neck as she slowly leaned in to kiss him.

Lin Xun also felt his Dantian heating up.

It was like running five thousand meters on the African savannah.

But not only did you not get heatstroke, you felt more and more excited the more you ran.

Is this the special grape from the Western Regions?

You people send this kind of tribute to the Empress?

Does Sister Mimi know?

However, Lin Xun soon gave up on thinking.

The next moment, in the room, after the candlelight flickered slightly, it went out.

The next morning, Lin Xun slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the warm and smooth wife in his arms, Lin Xun couldn’t help but recall last night.

Lin Xun performed an internal inspection of his body and found that the injuries that had flared up due to that great battle had actually stabilized again.

And at this moment, Lin Xun could already sense it.

Qinger’s body already had fluctuations of spiritual energy.

In other words, under the effect of the rootless fruit, Qinger had already generated a Spiritual Root and had even stepped into the First Realm of Qi Refinement.

Lin Xun felt that the repair of his injuries should also be related to that rootless fruit.

It was likely that while he and Qinger were discussing life last night, the medicinal power of the rootless fruit had transferred into his body.

That was why his hidden ailments had recovered quite a bit.

But regardless, if this rootless fruit was useful for Qinger, that was for the best.

The question he had to consider next was how to naturally let Qinger discover that both she and he could cultivate.

And while Lin Xun was thinking, Jiang Qingshang had already woken up in his arms.

Lying in Lin Xun’s arms and sensing the flow of spiritual energy within her husband’s body, Jiang Qingshang also breathed a sigh of relief.

She had doubted whether that fruit would be of any use.

But it was indeed useful, and the effect was quite significant.

Without having practiced any Mind-Cultivation Technique, her husband had entered the First Realm of Qi Refinement.

Moreover, sensing the circulation of her husband’s spiritual energy, this Acquired Spiritual Root seemed to be quite good.

What Jiang Qingshang actually didn’t know was that at the time, Lin Xun had slightly exposed himself and suppressed his Realm to the First Realm of Qi Refinement in order to regulate the medicinal effects in her body with spiritual energy.

This allowed for the best possible regulation.

And what Lin Xun didn’t know was that when his “Spiritual Root was generated and he entered the First Realm of Qi Refinement,”

Jiang Qingshang also felt the time was right and released her spiritual energy to enter the First Realm to match Lin Xun’s Realm.

Furthermore, in Jiang Qingshang’s heart, whatever Realm Lin Xun reached in the future, she would be at that same Realm.

In short, Jiang Qingshang wanted her husband’s future path of cultivation to be filled with her traces and footprints at every step.

She would also accompany her husband in cultivating forever.

Both were satisfied, filled with infinite imagination for the road ahead.

But at this moment, a palace maid knocked on the door:

“Lord Lin, Her Majesty said today that Lord Lin should simply spend more time with his wife and does not need to report for duty.”
