Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

Chapter 591: Chapter 543: Yaoyao Falls in Love

”Come on, let me check on the child first.”

Qin Yu didn’t tell her up front—it might not actually be pregnancy.

”How are you going to check?”

Tu Yaoyao was stunned. The reaction just started, what exactly is he checking?

Besides, this seems a bit different from the ’good pregnancy’ recorded in the clan. She isn’t even sure herself!

He’s not thinking about doing... that, is he?

Does that count as checking?

Shameless, really!

Tu Yaoyao was huffing indignantly, but then Qin Yu didn’t ask her to change clothes. Instead, he gently pressed his cheek to her flat little belly.

So, he didn’t mean that after all?

Tu Yaoyao suddenly felt a little embarrassed—how could she think such nonsense?

Hmph, it must be this guy’s bad influence!

Otherwise, why would she have such shameful thoughts?

Looking at the shape of Qin Yu’s profile, Tu Yaoyao felt some strange emotion rise in her heart, not knowing why.

This guy, when he’s not threatening her, is actually kind of...

No wonder his Dao Companions stick to him like glue, loyally devoted.

Apart from his warm current, all those meticulous attentions must be another reason, right?

And his care only goes to his Dao Companions. Like that Chu Liuya up in the top floor of Carefree Pavilion—he’s not the least bit polite to her, even aggressive.

It makes her recall when she first entered this space, Qin Yu wasn’t particularly warm either, even deliberately forced her at times.

No!

This kind of attention—she doesn’t crave it.

”I haven’t actually gotten pregnant, what are you listening for?”

Tu Yaoyao snorted softly, trying to push him away.

Though, maybe she wasn’t strong enough—she only managed to push his head just a bit lower.

”So eager to... cultivate?”

Qin Yu looked a little surprised.

”I...”

Tu Yaoyao’s gorgeous face flushed with both shyness and anger.

This guy—speaking nonsense again.

Who wants to cultivate with him?

She just wanted his head off her belly, not for that reason.

”Ah!”

”Don’t!”

Tu Yaoyao’s body quivered, and she hurriedly grabbed his head, stopping him from lowering it.

”Sis, are you asking me to go tell Jiujiu you’re pregnant?”

”No way!”

Tu Yaoyao panicked—she absolutely could not let that happen.

She could hardly imagine how the little fox would react if she found out...

Just imagining the consequences made goosebumps crawl all over her skin, visibly so.

Of course, that wasn’t because she was rejecting the idea.

In fact...

”Are you still going to block me then?” Qin Yu looked at her.

Tu Yaoyao’s anger was about to erupt, her eyes shimmering with ripples.

So damn despicable—using this kind of thing to threaten her again.

But, what could the great Beauty Clan Leader do?

She couldn’t really let the little fox find out, right?

Sigh!

Tu Yaoyao helplessly released her grip.

This was absolutely not her intention—she was forced.

Soon enough.

The enchanting pink mist gradually spread, eventually filling up the whole room.

You could vaguely see two figures cultivating inside—one moment joined head to tail, next forming the shape of a ’person’ character...

[Emotion Point from Tu Yaoyao +2]

[Tu Yaoyao Romantic Point: 21 (Feelings Awakening)]

Qin Yu gently held the beauty in his arms, feeling a warmth in his heart.

After so many sessions of cultivation, Tu Yaoyao’s Romantic Point finally increased.

Feelings awakening.

Seems like just a tiny step—actually it’s a big leap.

Take the Empress for example—even though she’s already crossed two rounds of Seven Emotions Tribulation, her Romantic Points fluctuated plenty, but post-tribulation they’ve stabilized a lot more.

Still, the second tribulation’s Romantic Point swings were... not as wild as the first time.

Really makes you wonder, huh.

Tu Yaoyao’s situation is a bit different, though.

Her resistance came from deep inside. Actually, since they started cultivating together, Qin Yu’s not been uncaring—sometimes even slowed things down for her.

Is it possibly due to the changes inside her belly that brought about some psychological shift?

Qin Yu’s lips quirked up in a subtle smile.

”Let me go.”

Tu Yaoyao’s tone was still aloof, acting like she resented being held this way.

She didn’t need to be treated like that.

Besides, she hadn’t lost just now!

”Want to keep going?”

Qin Yu’s lips curled in a mischievous grin.

Tu Yaoyao’s fighting power is indeed formidable—stronger even than Su Xihe and the rest. Maybe only the Empress could match her. But because of the time limits, she’s afraid of being caught by Tu Jiujiu, so wraps things up quickly at dawn each time.

That’s why Qin Yu still hasn’t figured out Tu Yaoyao’s upper limits.

”Keep going with what?”

Tu Yaoyao looked puzzled, then shivered—she immediately understood.

Such a shameless guy—how does his head get so full of these pointless things?

Hmm...

Wait, no.

Can’t really call them pointless. Maybe just a little bit interesting.

Tu Yaoyao would never admit she could get addicted to these kinds of things.

The only thing she cared about was the warm current.

Besides, she was forced into it, had no choice—definitely not her own desire.

But...

If Qin Yu really stopped coming to her one day, she’d notice the clan leader sister would be way colder the next morning—would need some coaxing before she’d go along.

After a while.

Tu Yaoyao counted the time, and after ending their ’battle,’ she got up, tossed clothes from the bed’s foot over to him, denying any further chances.

Since the last space expansion, the time flow speed here changed too.

Before, time in this space passed at just double speed. Now, seems like it’s quadrupled.

Meaning, Qin Yu can spend a lot more time in this space now.

Though, cultivation time doesn’t really increase—after all, Little Ling’Er hasn’t started yet, so there’s no need for much extra sleep.

Sigh, it’s a headache!

So much time—just wasted.

Wait.

What is she even thinking?!

Mysteriously, Tu Yaoyao’s hand rested atop her belly.

After this round of cultivation, the strange energy there seemed to have increased.

She furrowed her Dai Mei slightly.

She’s checked countless times already, still can’t confirm whether this is ’good pregnancy’—just that kind of nauseous urge really worries her.

Why do none of Qin Yu’s other Dao Companions experience this, and only she gets these symptoms?

”Quick, get dressed, Jiujiu and Little Ling’Er will be up soon.”

Thinking this, Tu Yaoyao glared daggers at the culprit, coldly snapping.

Showing off at all the wrong times!

”Remember, don’t say anything weird to Jiujiu. If she asks, tell her I’m entering seclusion.”

Tu Yaoyao worried the little fox could spot something off, so decided to stay here after all.

She’s invested so much already, plus the guy promised not to bully Tu Jiujiu—he shouldn’t go back on his word, right?

Just like Little Ling’Er—she’s stayed by Qin Yu’s side for ages, still holding onto her Primordial Yin Qi—which shows, his principles may be few but there’s a bottom line.

Let’s just see for now.

”You’re really not going out?”

Qin Yu looked surprised.

Usually, Tu Yaoyao’s terrified he’ll go after the little fox.

Maybe after ’feelings awakening,’ her attitude changed, too?

At the very least, this could be counted as a kind of trust.

”If you dare bully Jiujiu, I definitely won’t let you off.”

Tu Yaoyao snorted.

No way she could go.

The little fox is so sharp—if she noticed anything weird with her belly, Tu Yaoyao wouldn’t know how to explain at all.

Qin Yu didn’t bother sparring with Tu Yaoyao anymore; after tidying his clothes, he strode off toward the little courtyard beneath the waterfall.

”Amazing!”

Liu Zixiao sat on a blue stone beside the waterfall, and seeing Qin Yu approach, let out a heartfelt sigh.

Su Xihe also glanced his way.

Tu Jiujiu’s big sis really isn’t someone ordinary people can compare to.

Even the sect leader with Innate Sacred Body has to admit it.

She really is scarily strong.

Even both she and Liu Zixiao combined might not be a match.

Ha!

Really got a taste for it now!

She could still recall—just a little while ago, Tu Jiujiu’s big sis was always acting uninterested, above it all.

Now?

She won’t even leave that room.

A moment later.

”Brother Qin Yu!”

The courtyard’s door opened, and Tu Jiujiu’s eyes instantly locked onto Qin Yu as she launched herself into his arms.

Behind her, Little Ling’Er looked lively—clearly well rested.

Ever since Lifebound Space reached the Fourth Layer, Little Ling’Er’s constitution is basically completely stabilized; soaked in dense Spiritual Qi all day, she’s even healthier than normal now—no longer that sickly little girl from before.

If she were to step onto cultivation now, her Cultivation would probably surge ahead.

”Did you sleep well?”

Qin Yu caught Tu Jiujiu gently, letting her rest against his chest.

”No, I dreamed of Brother Qin Yu so many times—I just wanted to wake up sooner.”

Tu Jiujiu pouted, clearly grumpy.

The little fox never wants to sleep—just wants to stick with Brother Qin Yu every second.

Little Ling’Er sat obediently to the side, reaching out to take Qin Yu’s other hand, the sweet smile blossoming across her dainty face.

”You have to listen to your sister—if you rest well, your Realm will progress.”

Qin Yu felt a little helpless.

This little fox—doesn’t she realize how attractive she is?

If he hadn’t promised Tu Yaoyao, with all this clinginess around him, it’d be tough to keep himself in check.

”I don’t want to listen at all.”

Tu Jiujiu muttered under her breath, but since she didn’t hear the expected scolding, she realized sis wasn’t here.

”Eh? Where did sis go?”

The little fox actually felt a bit thrown off.

Usually, every time she got up, she’d see her sister meditating by the waterfall. Why not today?

”She’s entering seclusion for a bit, cultivating.”

Qin Yu repeated Tu Yaoyao’s own excuse.

”Seclusion? Really?”

Tu Jiujiu’s big, pure-yet-sultry eyes flashed, her cute face full of delight.

No more sister stopping her—so can she...

Stick to Brother Qin Yu all day?

Thinking about it, the little fox hugged Qin Yu even tighter, not caring if she got squished, utterly enjoying being close to him.

”Brother Qin Yu, how about we play a new game...”

Tu Jiujiu finally confirmed—the Beauty Clan Leader definitely isn’t watching, otherwise she’d have scolded her already.

”What kind of game?”

Qin Yu kept calm, staying rational and unmoved.

Compared to Little Ling’Er, Tu Jiujiu’s figure was even better, with an allure that was hard to put into words.

This daily life feels painful and delightful all at once.
