Chapter 40: 20.2

I’ve Unlocked a New Function (2)

Shen Rongyu waited for her to rest for a while, and continued to help her practice. Ji Qingzhuo’s back was ramrod straight, and she tried to keep herself in a decent state, but she forgot that she usually only spent an hour in her practice. Now that it was extended to three hours, her waist and shoulders couldn’t hold up anymore after a while.

She felt as if her body was numb and paralyzed, but her consciousness was still connected with Shen Rongyu.

In the past, she was not so motivated in cultivating, but now in order to improve her cultivation base and strive for the top three in the internal sect assessment, she tentatively took the initiative to absorb spirit qi.

Her consciousness merged with Shen Rongyu, and the two of them were almost entwined in the most intimate places together.

Ji Qingzhou felt as if she had entered a chaotic space where myriads of blue and red air currents were intertwined and spinning. The blue air currents undoubtedly flowed into her body, like streams, while the red air currents belonged to Shen Rongyu.

She saw the scarlet color, and after only a few glances, she couldn’t bear it anymore. She couldn’t get used to such a vivid color. But, in the center of the blinding scarlet stream, there seemed to be some little radiant, fragment-like lights intermingled with it, and they too surged from Shen Rong Yu’s body.

Even though she wasn’t interested in it, all of a sudden, the dazzling shards flew towards her. Ji Qingzhuo had no intention of delving into Shen Rongyu’s secrets, so she squatted down to avoid it.

But even her consciousness was clumsy. After dodging it a few times, one of the shiny fragments hit her arm, causing her some pain.

The moment the shard touched her consciousness, she seemingly fell into a completely unfamiliar environment, reminiscent of the deepest part of the abyss, dark and lightless. The icy chinks of chains swept past her ears, accompanied by a cold hard glint of metal. The chains slowly wrapped around someone’s body like a snake, and slowly tightened. And then, she heard what sounded like bones cracking.

The cold darkness was oppressive and cramped, and Ji Qingzhou closed her eyes in a panic. By the time she opened them again, she was back in the middle of the blue stream.

She lowered her head and stared at the flowing blue air currents, still silent.

Three hours was not a long time for the two of them.

It was just that after Shen Rongyu released Ji Qingzhuo’s wrist, she turned backward and almost fell on her back. Her physical fitness was poor, and after sitting in the same position for three hours, her body was already numb.

Shen Rongyu dragged her back. His face was as usual, obviously unaware of what Ji Qingzhuo saw when their consciousness intersected.

Ji Qingzhuo whispered again, “Xiao Yu-shixiong, I’m sorry.”

“Zhuzhuo.” Shen Rongyu called to her, “Next time, you can lean on me if you want.”

Ji Qingzhuo was startled. She stammeringly replied, “B-But then it will be more like a Dual Cultivation.”

She…she…this…with Shen Rongyu…

She slammed her mouth shut.

Shen Rongyu withdrew his hand holding her wrist. His eyes were still as cold as ice, but the words he spoke were as warm as a spring, “Of course, it’s not.”

All we did was…nothing more than…

Shen Rongyu interrupted his thoughts, got up, and said he was leaving.

The Burial Snow Sword hanging on his waist produced a clanging sword sound. This made Ji Qingzhuo recall the scene she saw in the dazzling shard.

Was the one locked up there … Shen Rongyu?

But then, why was he locked up there?

She watched Shen Rongyu leave and sat by herself in her room, massaging her legs for a good hour to relieve the stiffness in her legs and feet.

When she changed into her pajamas and climbed into bed, she asked the system an unprecedented question, “System, don’t you know about Shen Rongyu?”

“He cut himself off from the immortal cultivation world. I-I really don’t know what he once experienced.” The system said, “Host, it’s useless for you to ask me.”

“Oh.” Ji Qingzhou lifted the quilt and covered her head. “Then I’m sleeping.”

“Host, I have good news to tell you.” The system said excitedly, “Since you got close enough to Shen Rongyu, and he even hugged you tonight, I absorbed enough energy and unlocked a new function.”

“What’s the new function?” Ji Qingzhou was very sleepy, so she asked perfunctorily.

“I can feel if someone has killing intent towards you within a 300-meter radius. Such an early warning mechanism can substantially ensure your safety, Host!” the system asked for credit.

Ji Qingzhuo: “?” Immortal cultivators could arrive at a distance of 300 meters in an instant. Even if she knew someone wanted to kill her, how could she escape?

Plus… in Xuanyun Sect, it wasn’t like someone would be seized with a crazy idea and kill mortals, right?

“Host, I can sense everything except Shen Rongyu’s killing intent, and my function is designed for your most urgent needs at present.” The system explained, “Host, be careful, danger is everywhere.”

Ji Qingzhuo was already numb. She fell on her back, stretched her arms without restraints, and fell asleep as she wished.

She thought the new function was useless, but a few days later, during her daily class she heard the system scream.
