Maybe he was too selfish, focusing only on his feelings and not considering everything else."Don't hesitate anymore. We're done if more people come after this," Chansey said."Besides, you've suppressed the Nine Forces Vital Energy within me now, but what if it suddenly acts up when you're not around? What am I supposed to do then?"Can you do this for me?"Chansey felt awkward about asking a man to have sex with her, even though it was due to some special circumstances.However, with all the chaos she saw, she could not care about her embarrassment. She wanted him to regain his strength and confidence.Henry hesitated for a long time but eventually decided to try. Maybe they could solve the problem in other ways."I'll make a move if you don't." Chansey stepped forward and hugged him tightly. She kissed him and threw herself into Henry.Chansey's aggressiveness took Henry aback. For a moment, he almost gave in. Chansey only intended to seduce Henry initially but soon found he
Meanwhile, Peter was overjoyed when he knew that Lydia and Henry had finally divorced.Since they first met, he had been attracted by Lydia's stunning beauty and extraordinary aura. He was confident in his status and charm and believed he could easily win her over, so he held back and remained reserved.To Peter's surprise, Lydia rejected his advances, which made him furious. He decided not to allow her to step into Aurelia's upper echelons.However, Peter could not stop thinking about her, and his desire to possess her grew even stronger. When he learned from John about her situation, he threatened Lydia with Henry's life and the Millers' future.Peter had to start the intensive cultivation of Trumans within less than a week, which required him to advance to the grandmaster before being allowed to leave; he realized he had to win over Lydia quickly.He immediately booked a flight to Hodbridge the following day, planning to bring her to Aurelia and publicly announce their relation
"Yes!" Chansey nodded.Henry then turned around, removed his clothes, and said, "I'm coming in. Close your eyes first."After giving her a few seconds to comply, he entered the bath with his eyes closed.He kept his eyes shut because Chansey's upper body was fully exposed while she sat in the medicinal bath, and he did not want to see her that way.As for Chansey, she did not close her eyes, but she quickly shut them as Henry turned around.As Henry entered the bath, their legs inevitably touched, making Henry shiver slightly.A surge of inappropriate thoughts rushed to his mind, but he quickly suppressed them. He raised his hands and said, "Chansey, put your hands out."Chansey extended her hands as instructed to meet his palms."Good, stay still. Don't resist when my vital energy enters your body," Henry said.He knew the dangerous nature of the Nine Forces Vital Energy within Chansey. He had to control it delicately; otherwise, his weakened state would not be able to withst
Normally, the quickest and most effective way to merge and neutralize the mysterious Nine Forces Vital Energy in Chansey was through sexual intercourse.That would boost both of their powers and protect Chansey. However, Henry did not want to do so. He used an alternative method—a medicinal bath—to reduce harm.Despite those efforts, the energy still erupted.In desperation, Henry moved closer and hugged Chansey tightly. At the same time, he placed his hands on her back, letting his vital energy flow into her body. His powerful vital energy clashed with the intense Nine Forces Vital Energy within Chansey, causing her to tremble uncontrollably.She gritted her teeth and endured the pain."Am I going to die?" Chansey asked in agony."No, I won't let you die," Henry reassured her and focused on channeling his vital energy to warm her body.His hands pressed her back, absorbing and transforming the Nine Forces Vital Energy. Gradually, the more energy he absorbed and transformed, the
Chansey got up and walked away reluctantly. She even glanced at Henry, who kept his eyes closed the whole time.She put her clothes back on and noticed she looked better somehow—her skin felt smoother and more radiant.After Chansey left, Henry immediately focused on cultivating the methods of Emperor Medical Scripture to advance to an unprecedented level. As he continued, his vital energy grew stronger, permeating and strengthening his body.The Emperor Medical Scripture, combined with the mysterious demonic martial arts, Infernal Scripture, was incredibly powerful. One was strong and stable, while the other allowed for rapid progress and complemented each other perfectly. The Infernal Scripture's ability to refine the body was even better than the Green Dragon Technique.Time passed. Despite reaching the peak of both methods and fully transforming and absorbing the vital energy, Henry could not advance to the next level. He had hoped to advance into the legendary Earthly Immortal
"Henry?" Maeve asked eagerly as soon as the call connected."It's me," Henry replied."I'm sorry, Henry. I was wrong.""Get to the point," he said."Peter from Aurelia is here now. Lydia is about to leave with him," Maeve quickly explained.She had hesitated before, but she decided to call Henry after learning more about the situation and seeing Lydia's heartbroken look.She knew Lydia was protecting Henry but felt he had a right to know the truth.Henry trembled. He knew John had kicked him out to curry favor with the Trumans in Aurelia, but he had not expected him to act so fast.He shook his head and said, "So what? What does it have to do with me?""I know you're mad at Lydia. She didn't mistrust you; she was afraid Peter would hurt you. That was why she acted that way," Maeve explained quickly.That was the main reason for her call.She had no way to influence Henry's decision, but she had to tell him the truth.Henry was shocked. There was indeed a reason behind every
"That's great! Thank you, Henry, you're so kind," Maeve exclaimed excitedly. She had not expected to get such an unexpected benefit by sharing that news."But anyway, you must understand that Lydia and I are divorced." Henry sighed helplessly."No, you'll always be Lydia's husband to me," Maeve said regretfully.Lydia had always been the kindest to her since they were young. She should not have treated her like that. She genuinely believed she was doing it for Lydia's own good. She realized how tough it must have been for Henry when Lydia mentioned Lewis and Eric."We're done. I have things to do," Henry said."Are you coming over?" Maeve asked."We'll see," Henry replied before hanging up.Maeve was stunned. Henry did not react as Lydia said.Lydia told her that Henry would kill Peter if he found out. However, Henry did not sound angry at all. He sounded like he was trying to avoid it.She wondered if Lydia misunderstood Henry.Henry had been so angry before because he was p
"What makes you so happy, Henry?" Chansey asked curiously."Nothing much, just remembering some childhood memories," Henry said.As he spoke, he finally took a moment to look at Chansey. She was indeed a perfect woman. Her face looked even more delicate, and her skin was incredibly radiant.She had become even more attractive, and Lydia might not be able to compete with her.After all, she had always been troubled by the Nine Forces Vital Energy; she had then transformed with the help of the new vital energy."Thank you so much for everything, Chansey," Henry said."Don't mention it. I did all this of my own free will. Besides, I've never thought about marrying anyone. As long as you need me, I'm here," Chansey said.Her words made Henry smile wryly, and he felt even more troubled. He could not ignore her dedication and sacrifice, especially given her incredible beauty and perfection.However, it was not the time to think about that.Subsequently, Henry said, "I'm fine now. Yo
