Chapter 24: You Better Survive:



So... the two traces of internal energy in Ling Ye’s body were almost as powerful as hers?

Which meant... she might be able to save Ling Ye?

If she were to transfer her entire life’s worth of internal energy into Ling Ye’s body, could she save his life?

The moment this thought surfaced, the imperial physician immediately understood what she was planning.

He quickly advised, "There’s no guarantee that this will work. Besides, how can Your Highness sacrifice your lifelong cultivation for a mere mortal? Please, Your Highness, think this through!"

Ye Lin didn’t respond. She simply gazed at the unconscious Ling Ye.

In her mind, she was making a decision.

He... was no ordinary man!

He was a true master, someone who could help her ascend to the throne!

Now, with only one day left, where could she find someone with power equal to hers to save him?

Though she wasn’t from the martial world, her martial prowess was on par with the likes of Luo Xinli, if not better.

She was among the top tier of martial artists!

So, finding someone with strength equal to hers was already rare.

Moreover, highly skilled martial artists treasured their lifelong cultivation above all else.

Who would willingly sacrifice their lifelong cultivation to save a stranger?

So now, the only person who could save Ling Ye was her!

And the only person willing to save Ling Ye was her!

Ye Lin’s gaze remained on the sleeping Ling Ye. After a moment of contemplation, she finally made her decision...

She would save him!

If she saved him, she would have the perfect condition to demand his loyalty, wouldn’t she?

For the sake of her ambition, she decided to take a gamble!

Her intuition... told her to take this risk!

"Leave now, Mr. Sun, and thank you for your assistance." Ye Lin said, waving her hand dismissively.

"Your Highness is too kind. If you need anything, you can call me at any time." The physician said, bowing as he began to leave the room.

Just before leaving, he added, "Your Highness, please reconsider! Your life is too precious!"

He could see what Ye Lin was planning, so he felt the need to give one last warning.

But Ye Lin didn’t heed his advice.

Because... she wasn’t planning on sacrificing her entire life’s worth of internal energy!

Because... She had another way to create internal energy within Ling Ye’s body that would match her own.

And that way was... dual cultivation!

The technique she practiced was one her mother, the Empress of the Mysterious Jade Empire, had left her.

It was called... the "Golden Jade Universe Technique"!

It was also due to her training in this technique from a young age that her eyes had turned their peculiar golden color.

The Golden Jade Universe Technique was, in fact... a form of dual cultivation!

However, she had never found someone suitable to practice it with.

But now...

She had to make a choice!

Either sacrifice her lifelong cultivation to save Ling Ye’s life, or... give herself to this man.

Her gaze lingered on Ling Ye.

After a moment of hesitation, she slowly gave the order, "Take him to my chambers!"

Her choice was...

The second option!



(Ye Lin’s chamber)

The bath was filled with water.

Ling Ye sat in the bath, still unconscious with his eyes closed.

The maids preparing the bath were curious.

When had a man ever been allowed into the princess’s chambers?

When had the princess’s bath ever been used by a man?

But now, the princess had brought this man to her chambers and placed him in her bath?

What was she planning to do?

Could it be...

The maids, of course, could imagine what this meant.

Their thoughts naturally drifted toward a more romantic interpretation.

So, as they prepared the water, their cheeks flushed slightly.

Could this man be... the future prince consort?

Otherwise, why would the princess treat him so?

The water was ready!

Clear, warm, and sprinkled with flower petals.

This was how Ye Lin usually bathed.

But now, all of this was prepared for a man.

Ye Lin stood by the bath, her golden eyes fixed on Ling Ye.

Then she said calmly, "Leave!"

"Yes, Your Highness." The maids replied, bowing slightly and stealing a glance at Ling Ye before quietly exiting.

They couldn’t help but think that if this man was indeed the future prince consort... he was quite handsome!

In terms of looks, he matched the princess well!

Soon, everyone left, and the door was closed.

Now, only Ye Lin remained in her chamber.

She took a deep breath!

Looking at the unconscious Ling Ye, she murmured, "You better survive, and you better... obey me from now on!"

With that, she stepped into the bath.

Her face reddened as she approached Ling Ye.

After all, she had never done anything like this before.

And the man before her was still unconscious.

This meant that from this point on, she would have to take the initiative in everything.

So naturally, she felt shy.

But no matter how shy she was, she had to do it!

So, blushing, she lifted her delicate hands and gently began to unfasten Ling Ye’s robes...

In the luxurious chamber, the air was filled with a fragrant scent.

Everything that followed happened while Ling Ye was in a state of half-consciousness.

He felt something, but it was not entirely clear.

It all felt... like a dream!

A hazy, indistinct dream...
