The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife
chapter-1753

Xi Yue was stunned. Just as she was about to refuse the favor, she heard the sound of Little Red Bird swallowing saliva from the void, “Oh my God, it’s actually the Limitless Pill. Who is this, Divine Venerable? He is so generous.”

Is this valuable? Xi Yue asked in surprise.

Little Red Bird exclaimed, “If the Limitless Pill isn’t valuable, then no other medicinal pills hold any value either. This is a heaven-defying treasure that increases your cultivation speed by 20%! Xi Yue, your advancement speed is already faster than others. If you take the Limitless Pill, you will soar into the sky at a speed that is simply unimaginable.”

As soon as Little Red Bird said this, Xi Yue swallowed her words to reject it.

What she needed most now was to improve her strength. She could only unlock the wood source and revive everyone when her strength was improved.

However, as the saying goes, “taking someone’s kindness makes you owe them big time”. If she accepted such a huge favor from Ji Mingyu, how was she supposed to repay him later?

Just as Xi Yue was hesitating, Zhu Que flicked her fingers, and the medicinal pill flew into Xi Yue’s mouth.

Seeing Xi Yue swallowing the Limitless Pill albeit unexpectedly, Zhu Que chuckled, “Okay, I finally completed the task entrusted by the master. I can go back and have a good rest.”

After saying that, without waiting for Xi Yue’s reaction, she disappeared into the room in a flash.

The next day, Xi Yue spent all her time in cultivation.

The Limitless Pill was such a superb pill. So absorbing the pill effect wouldn’t happen overnight if she wanted to capitalize it fully.

Time flew by quickly. The veil of night descended, but Xi Yue didn’t notice it at all.

When Ji Mingyu returned to the palace, what he saw was the girl sitting cross-legged, her eyes slightly closed. She was circulating her spiritual power.

The crystals in the palace lit up automatically, casting a soft glow on the girl’s face. Her face appeared smooth and delicate, almost like it could break at the slightest touch. It made anyone, who touched her, be extra careful, as if their warmth could melt her just like that.

When Xi Yue opened her eyes, she was startled.

Ji Mingyu sat next to her and even helped her tuck the hair that was scattered around her forehead behind her ears.

His action was bold, and his aura was so intense beside her. However, she had been so immersed in cultivation that her usual vigilance seemed to have failed her. She even felt a sense of comfort, almost reassuringly.

She frowned and avoided Ji Mingyu’s touch. After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, “Thank you for the Limitless Pill.”

Ji Mingyu did not respond to her words, but with a flick of his wrist, a long sword shining with iridescent light appeared in her hand.

“Li Shui Sword!” Xi Yue recognized it at a glance, but there was a bit of uncertainty in her eyes.

The Li Shui Sword in Ji Mingyu’s hand also had the Five Elements attribute, but it was much purer than before as if all the impurities had been removed.

Sensing the aura of Xi Yue, the master, Li Shui Sword made a buzzing sound and rushed into Xi Yue’s hand. The iridescent light instantly shone brilliantly.

Xi Yue gently waved the long sword in her hand, trying to absorb the Five Elements spiritual power. Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, spiritual power was poured into the Li Shui Sword. The flying sword was ready to strike as if it could strike an earth-shattering blow at any time.

She looked at Ji Mingyu and said with some disbelief, “You… have refined the Li Shui Sword?”

Ji Mingyu said calmly, “Although this is a Five Elements Sword, the material contains too many impurities. It can’t absorb and transmit spiritual power swiftly. In the battles of swords, one second is enough to decide the victor. You get that, right?”
