Chapter 224- Cold Indifferent Loyal Dog VS. Playful Ghost King (19)
Subconsciously opening his eyes, Mu Jin saw the gentle gaze of the man in front of him. Blinking, he noticed that the sky outside was already brightening. Naturally, he smiled at his lover and softly said, “Are you getting up?”
Yin Tianyi shook his head at the words, reaching to draw the curtains by the bedside. Lowering his head, he passionately kissed Mu Jin, mumbling unclearly, “It’s still early, shall we do it again?”
Mu Jin was momentarily stunned by the man’s words, foolishly welcoming his lover’s enthusiasm. Clearly, he hadn’t expected his partner to have spent the whole night with him and still be so energetic the next day. Could it be that his lover was naturally gifted in every aspect?
But since his beloved was in such high spirits, although Mu Jin felt a bit tired, fortunately, his body didn’t feel weary. He had no reason to refuse, especially with the contract between him and Yin Tianyi. He willingly complied, knowing that his Yin energy wouldn’t harm his partner, thanks to their agreement.
However, Mu Jin couldn’t help but sigh inwardly; indeed, virgins were delicate. Having lived an entire lifetime in the past without any romantic experiences, it was even more precarious for a newly initiated virgin like him in this lifetime.
Yet, it had to be admitted that after last night, both Mu Jin and Yin Tianyi had greatly benefited from their union.
Mu Jin, having cultivated for millennia, possessed considerable power, while Yin Tianyi had a pure Yang constitution. With their contract complementing each other, their coupling last night had essentially involved some form of dual cultivation.
Though this wasn’t a purely cultivation world, Mu Jin’s cultivation had improved somewhat, and Yin Tianyi’s magical power had increased significantly. The intimacy of last night had also brought them closer together.
Yin Tianyi continued to entangle Mu Jin, not just because his lover looked adorable in the morning. It was after the first time, then the second, and the third, that he realized his spiritual energy was much more abundant after last night’s encounter.
Moreover, he quickly figured out the significance behind it, speculating that it was somewhat similar to the concept of dual cultivation mentioned in certain cultivation novels from the past.
Typically, during the first dual cultivation, especially while the partner’s Yuan Yang energy remained intact, one would undoubtedly gain tremendous benefits from the other. Thinking of this, Yin Tianyi felt a surge of joy, as with his increased magical power, his covert intentions now had more potential for implementation.
After experiencing countless betrayals and disappointments in two lifetimes, Yin Tianyi had become entirely selfish. Of course, he wouldn’t harm those who hadn’t wronged him.
But having a second chance at life, he had resolved to live entirely according to his own desires and to enjoy the days to come. Therefore, since it was what he wanted, he naturally wouldn’t let go.
He loved Mu Jin and wanted to capture his heart. Although he didn’t play hot and cold or actively respond, it was because even without romantic experience, having seen so much of the world, he understood some aspects of human psychology.
He was very clear about the purpose behind these actions; since distancing himself from Mu Jin was no longer effective, why suppress himself? Of course, obtaining what he desired quickly was the most important thing. So, without hesitation, he devoured the person, merging happily with his lover.
However, even so, he unexpectedly discovered that the saying “dying under a peony is also romantic” wasn’t just an empty phrase. Being intimate with his lover was truly delightful; he couldn’t help but become somewhat addicted.
Originally intending to rest, he felt his magical power increase after the intimacy between them. So, he tried many times again, although the benefits weren’t as great as initially, the physical sensations alone fascinated him.
Mu Jin also sensed this and didn’t stop the man. After all, there’s not just Yang replenishing Yin; there’s also Yin replenishing Yang. Especially for someone with a pure Yang constitution, replenishing his lover’s body with Yin energy would actually be beneficial for their cultivation. Mu Jin cooperated even more wholeheartedly.
By the time it was bright and already noon, Yin Tianyi refreshed himself and got up. Looking at Mu Jin lazily lying in bed, still with skin so fair it seemed to glow, a hint of regret arose in the man’s heart.
Unfortunately, Mu Jin’s constitution was such that he couldn’t leave any marks on him, otherwise, he really wanted to leave more marks on him; it would make him feel like the person across from him belonged to him, giving him a stronger sense of satisfaction.
But it was just wishful thinking; since he had gained such a great advantage, he naturally wouldn’t be fixated on things that weren’t particularly important.
In a great mood, Yin Tianyi immediately went to the kitchen after freshening up and prepared a very sumptuous lunch for Mu Jin. He had been busy these days and hadn’t cooked personally. Mu Jin finally got to eat a meal made by his lover, naturally feeling very happy.
So the two of them sweetly enjoyed their meal, and then Yin Tianyi fiercely kissed Mu Jin again. Having taken enough advantage, he took a deep breath, suppressed the tenderness in his heart, leaving his lover with dewy eyes, and went to strive for his goals, as he had done with the books he had read before.
Though Mu Jin didn’t know why the man suddenly became so passionate overnight, he wouldn’t refuse the meat that was delivered to his doorstep. Instead, he felt very happy about his lover’s initiative.
After Yin Tianyi finished reading, as promised from yesterday, Mu Jin immediately summoned some low-level ghosts for the man to practice with.
Of course, these ghosts were just wandering spirits nearby, they hadn’t done anything wrong, and it wasn’t easy to just obliterate them. So, it was just for Yin Tianyi to practice controlling spells.
Even after Yin Tianyi finished practicing with them, Mu Jin would give them some Yin energy to help enhance their cultivation and strength. These ghosts might suffer a bit during their battles with Yin Tianyi, but the benefits they gained were tremendous, so they were naturally very willing.
So, after digesting these books and some practice, Yin Tianyi could be said to have completely mastered the spells he was familiar with.
Several days passed quickly. After becoming familiar with the spells, Yin Tianyi naturally became more enthusiastic about enhancing his own strength. So, he couldn’t waste time on these harmless ghosts forever. However, he hadn’t yet decided where to find some relatively dangerous tasks when Qi Hao came knocking on his door.
Qi Hao was quite confident in his big brother’s child, feeling that Yin Tianyi must be exceptionally talented. Moreover, with Mu Jin by his side, who was a formidable weapon, as soon as he received news, he immediately sought out Yin Tianyi again, asking if he was willing to meet with Mr. Qi and offering to introduce him.
Yin Tianyi, knowing that he still had a long way to go in his skills, naturally wouldn’t take on too much. Qi Hao, seeing this, wore a smug smile, seeming to have expected Yin Tianyi’s response.
With a mischievous grin, the lean, dark-skinned man said to Yin Tianyi with a slightly lecherous expression, “I knew you’d say that, so I’ve been paying close attention to these messages these past few days. It just so happens that I heard about some trouble with the old Yu family while I was wandering in the ghost market these past two days. It sounded quite dangerous; do you want to go take a look? Speaking of which, you guys have met Old Yu before!”
Hearing Qi Hao’s words, Mu Jin and Yin Tianyi were somewhat puzzled, but then Qi Hao continued, “It’s the family where you bought the puppet from that day.”
Hearing this, Mu Jin remembered that indeed such a thing had happened. At the time, he had taken a liking to the puppet and bought it. However, with the interruption of Mr. Qi and Qi Hao’s affairs, they had completely forgotten about the puppet. Now, reminded by Qi Hao, Mu Jin quickly found the backpack he had taken to the ghost market that day and pulled out the puppet from inside.
Mu Jin noticed that the Yin energy on the puppet seemed to be less dense than before, but it was still good for him. So naturally, Mu Jin accepted it. However, to his surprise, after absorbing the puppet, it didn’t disintegrate like the jade stone, which puzzled Mu Jin.
Therefore, Mu Jin became even more curious about what had happened with Old Yu as Qi Hao mentioned, so he agreed to accompany him to take a look. Yin Tianyi and Mu Jin then packed up their things and followed behind Qi Hao, arriving at the home of the person surnamed Yu.
The location where Old Yu lived was somewhat remote, but it was still quite close to the ghost market. However, Mu Jin and Yin Tianyi hadn’t expected that Old Yu’s house would be very nice, actually a standalone villa on the outskirts of the city.
Mu Jin had thought that people who frequented the ghost market would live like Qi Hao, but he was mistaken. Although the city was small, dealing in antiques and such could yield a considerable amount of money over the years, especially in a city where property prices were relatively cheap like theirs. So, there was nothing strange about Old Yu living in such a house. As for Qi Hao, his frequent visits to the ghost market were just a hobby, separate from his business dealings.
However, seeing Old Yu again as Qi Hao had described, both Mu Jin and Yin Tianyi looked somewhat surprised.
