192: Yunxi triggered the system again

Deep within the Jingsi Hall Secret Realm, atop the Origin Heart Lotus Platform.

When Yun Xi used her last ounce of strength to utter those six words, heavier than stars—

"This... this is... for the Human Federation," the entire Secret Realm seemed to fall silent.

Chen Jun's lips curved into a subtle, complex arc, a mix of "As expected, it's like this again" and a hint of "This woman is truly stubborn."

He leaned down, approaching the curled-up body that exuded a fragile and weak beauty, his voice low, with an undeniable gentleness:

"Relax, leave it to me."

Yun Xi squeezed her eyes shut, her long eyelashes trembling violently like startled butterfly wings.

She could feel Chen Jun's breath drawing near, warm and steady, a stark contrast to her own chaotic and faint breathing.

She could feel him reaching out, his movements incredibly gentle, beginning to... untie the straps of her plain white dress, stained with faint golden blood.

"Mm..."

A tiny whimper, tinged with shame and resistance, escaped her throat.

For a hundred thousand years, her body had never been touched by anyone so closely, let alone in such a weak, defenseless state.

The last time in Jingsi Hall, at least she was conscious and proactive, with a resolve almost like a sacrifice.

But this time... the cold air touching her skin made her tremble uncontrollably.

Chen Jun's movements were extremely slow... his fingertips occasionally brushed against her cold skin, and wherever they passed, it was as if faint sparks were ignited, bringing waves of unfamiliar, unsettling tremors.

Yun Xi bit her lower lip fiercely, almost drawing blood.

She was Yun Xi! The leader of the Human Federation! An existence standing at the Peak of civilization for a hundred thousand years!

Yet now she lay here like a fragile piece of porcelain, completely exposed, allowing a man... even if that man was Chen Jun... to perform this kind of... "treatment" on her?

Reason told her this was the only choice, a necessary price for the continuation of civilization.

But emotionally, the personal shame and pride belonging to "Yun Xi" were being crushed inch by inch.

"Don't be nervous," Chen Jun's voice whispered in her ear, his warm breath brushing her sensitive earlobe, carrying a strange soothing power. "Your muscles are too tense, which isn't conducive to... medicinal absorption."

Medicinal absorption?

Yun Xi almost wanted to let out a bitter laugh.

What kind of medicinal power was this?!

However, what came next made her even more mortified.

Chen Jun seemed a little helpless at her "lack of cooperation."

He stopped, looking at her tightly closed eyes, rigid body, as if she were about to face death, and sighed softly.

"Yun Xi, if you're like this, the treatment effect will be greatly reduced," his tone carried a hint of seriousness, as if he were genuinely discussing a rigorous medical plan.

"We need... deeper relaxation, and more efficient... energy guidance."

Yun Xi: "..."

She felt like she was going crazy!

Deeper relaxation?

Efficient... energy guidance?

This scoundrel!

How could he say such... such... things in such a serious tone?!

She suddenly opened her eyes, glaring at Chen Jun, wanting to express her indignation with her gaze.

However, when she met his eyes, deep as black holes but now filled with "I'm doing this for your own good" and "I'm seriously treating your illness," all her anger seemed to hit an invisible wall and instantly dissipated... He even... slightly furrowed his brow, as if truly worried about her "non-cooperation with the treatment"?!

A huge sense of powerlessness swept over her.

What more could she say?

What more could she do?

Refuse?

And then watch herself perish, watch the Federation lose its leader, watch Qinglan lose her mother? Watch all previous sacrifices go to waste?

She couldn't do it... Finally... she closed her eyes again in despair, squeezing out a sentence through gritted teeth, in a voice almost self-deprecating and as faint as a mosquito's buzz:

"You... hurry up..."

This sentence seemed to drain all her strength and dignity.

A hint of triumphant amusement flashed in Chen Jun's eyes, but he quickly reined it in.

He resumed his movements, and this time, his technique seemed... even more "professional"?

His fingertips seemed to possess a strange magic, lightly or heavily pressing and kneading several important energy nodes around her body.

It wasn't erotic teasing, but rather a genuine guidance containing a certain "profound rhythm"... threads of incredibly pure, gentle, and vast power, with his touch, quietly seeped into Yun Xi's parched Meridians and damaged Origin.

Like a parched desert welcoming sweet rain, her broken body instinctively began to greedily absorb this energy.

"Mm..."

An uncontrolled, comfortable moan escaped Yun Xi's nose.

She suddenly reacted, her face instantly flushing crimson, biting her lip fiercely, daring not to make another sound.

Too... too humiliating!

Chen Jun seemed not to hear, still focused on his "treatment."

His movements were sometimes gentle as a feather, sometimes steady as a mountain, precisely stimulating the remaining vitality within her body, guiding the power from him, imbued with the aura of noble Origin, gently repairing those shocking Dao injuries.

Gradually, Yun Xi found that the excruciating pain that had clung to her Soul like a parasitic growth seemed to genuinely lessen bit by bit.

Her body, which had been riddled with holes like a tattered sack, also seemed to be infused with a strange vitality, beginning to radiate faint life.

Especially when Chen Jun's palm finally covered her Qi Sea Dantian—the most severely damaged Origin core—a vast and warm torrent, like a nascent star, surged in!

"Ah..."

Yun Xi could no longer suppress it, letting out a short, muffled gasp.

It was no longer pain, but an... indescribable, ultimate experience, as if her very life essence was being cleansed and sublimated!

She could clearly "see" that her Origin core within her Dantian, once covered in cracks and dim, was rapidly mending its cracks under the nourishment of this power, its light reigniting, and even... becoming more solid, more profound!

This... this was too incredible!

Could it be... what he said... was true?

This kind of "treatment" actually possessed such miraculous efficacy?!

Just as her mind was surging, almost believing this was truly just a "serious treatment"—

Chen Jun's movements underwent a subtle change.

His touch was no longer limited to "energy nodes."

Those warm fingers, like the most agile explorers, began to linger with an irresistible gentleness on her smooth back, slender waist, and even... more sensitive areas... "You...!" Yun Xi suddenly opened her eyes wide, glaring at him with a mix of shame and indignation.

But Chen Jun wore a look of "righteousness," his tone carrying a perfectly timed "puzzlement":

"The energy stagnation here is quite severe and needs focused clearing... What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

Yun Xi: "!!!"

I... I...!

She trembled all over, utterly shy, but couldn't utter a single word!

What could she say?

Say "there's no energy stagnation there"?

Or say "don't touch there"?

Either way, it would make her seem... impure!

This scoundrel!

He was definitely doing this on purpose!

Seeing her look of furious indignation yet helplessness, Chen Jun felt secretly pleased.

That's for always putting on airs as a leader!

That's for acting like you were doing business in Jingsi Hall!

That's for still stubbornly saying "it's for the Human Federation again"!

Today, I must melt away this cold shell of yours!

His "treatment" became increasingly "deep" and "comprehensive."

Wherever his fingertips passed, it was as if invisible sparks were ignited in a chain.

Numbness, tremors, a strange and surging tide... wave after wave, impacting Yun Xi's mental defenses.

She bit her lip fiercely, trying to resist the escalating, alarming pleasure.

However, the body's reaction was often more honest than the will.

Her skin gradually took on a captivating blush, her once faint breathing became rapid and hot, her tightly closed eyelashes trembled like withered leaves in the wind... She could even feel her body, cold for a hundred thousand years, gradually softening, and even... beginning to involuntarily, slightly accommodate the touch that brought such strange sensations... "No... I can't..." She let out a broken whimper, unsure if she was rejecting Chen Jun or warning herself.

Chen Jun looked at the delicate body beneath him, already aroused but still stubbornly enduring, at her complex expression mixed with shame and bewilderment, and knew the time was right.

He lowered his head and captured her lips, slightly swollen from biting.

"Mm...!"

Yun Xi's pupils suddenly contracted, her mind a blank!

He... he actually...! Unlike the previous gentle touches, this kiss carried an undeniable dominance and depth, as if to brand itself directly onto her Soul through her lips and teeth.

She instinctively wanted to struggle, to push him away, but those hands that once commanded Star Domains were now soft and powerless.

Instead... under his relentless assault, a deeper, more surging desire was awakened from deep within her body, like a volcano dormant for a hundred thousand years, about to erupt... (...To avoid censorship, hehe, a million words of indescribable details are omitted here again...)

Hmm... a poem should be here to prove it:

Jade furnace, ice mat, mandarin duck brocade, powder melts, fragrant sweat flows on mountain pillow.

A single meeting in the golden wind and jade dew, surpasses countless encounters in the human world.

Just then—

Chen Jun's gaze instantly locked onto the third option!

Lifespan, for him, was already like a floating cloud.

King Body?!

Tier 7?!

Above Innate Venerable Body, there was actually Innate King Body?!

If Innate Venerable Body was revered in the Star River, then Innate King Body must be king in the Star Sea?!
