Chapter 87.2
They finally reached the wing assigned to them by the prince. As soon as Li Tianyan closed the door, he gently admonished Cheng Qi, “Why did you drink so much?”
Cheng Qi, his arms still around Li Tianyan’s neck, looked up at him with watery eyes as if feeling wronged. “I drank because I wanted to taste the wine.”
Listening to his rambling, Li Tianyan couldn’t help but chuckle, “How much did you drink?”
“I don’t know, but I want more.” Cheng Qi pouted and kissed Li Tianyan, then giggled as he detected the scent of wine on his breath. “There’s more here.”
“Did you drink the whole pot?” Li Tianyan looked at the tipsy Cheng Qi in amusement, unsure how to handle his antics.
“I already kissed you, why haven’t you kiss me back?” Cheng Qi complained, puffing his cheeks in disappointment.
“Why should I kiss you?” Li Tianyan decided to play along and teasingly moved to sit on the bed, gesturing for Cheng Qi to join him.
Cheng Qi, still in his playful mood, gladly complied and snuggled up to him.
“Because I liked it, I like kissing you,” Cheng Qi said and took the initiative to pout his lips, waiting to be kissed.
Li Tianyan lowered his head amusingly and tapped his lips, “Kiss.”
“No, this doesn’t count,” Cheng Qi seemed dissatisfied with the kiss, hugged Li Tianyan’s neck, and rubbed against him again.@@@@
“Hm!” Li Tianyan suddenly felt a sensitive spot being rubbed against. His breathing became heavier, and the veins in the hand holding Cheng Qi’s waist popped out. “Don’t move.”
“Move, I will keep moving unless you promise me,” Cheng Qi suddenly got into a fighting stance, with a posture of risking death if he failed to achieve his goal, and finally made Li Tianyan surrender.
“The fake cultivator hasn’t returned from the altar. There are only a few Taoist priests guarding Jiantian Pavilion, but I think there’s deep resentment in Jiantian Pavilion, and I suspect that guy may be practicing some evil arts,” Tan Eyu said truthfully.
A cold light flashed in Li Tianyan’s eyes upon hearing about the evil arts, then he asked, “Have you found the dungeon?”
“No, the snake demon is already at the peak of the ninth level, and she seems to have some magical powers. I’m afraid if we approach the palace where she lived, she might discover us. I searched all other parts of the palace and couldn’t find that dungeon,” Tan Eyu frowned and spoke. The female ghost she brought didn’t know the location of the dungeon, she only knew it was some kind of jail and she mostly wandered around the mass graves after her death.
“The peak of the ninth level,” Li Tianyan didn’t expect the snake demon to have reached the peak of the ninth level less than ten years after its transformation.
Cheng Qi couldn’t help but frown upon hearing about the ninth level. So, the snake demon was two small levels higher than Li Tianyan, only one step away from Foundation Establishment.
Thinking of the agreement with Zhao Shengyu yesterday, Li Tianyan and Cheng Qi went directly to the prince’s room after having breakfast. Zhao Shengyu had obviously been waiting for a long time. When he saw Li Tianyan, he asked slightly nervously, “Doctor Li, are everything ready?”
“Your Highness, please take a seat,” Li Tianyan saw that apart from Zhao Shengyu, there was only one personal guard in the room. He asked Cheng Qi to put the medicine box he was carrying on the table, and then asked Zhao Shengyu to unbutton his shirt.
When the personal bodyguard heard that His Highness was asked to take off his clothes, he immediately stepped forward to undress him, but Zhao Shengyu refused. He took off his robe himself. When the strong body was revealed, Zhao Shengyu’s personal bodyguard couldn’t help but take a breath, “Your Highness.”
Zhao Shengyu’s body was covered with black scales, densely packed from the abdomen to the chest. He looked extremely scary. Since the prince got a strange disease, no one was allowed to get close to him, so no one knew his real situation.
Li Tian extended his hand to touch the scales, then pinched Zhao Shengyu’s wrist to feel the pulse. His guess was indeed confirmed. He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and said, “The concubine didn’t succeed.”
Note:
Remember in a level of cultivation, each level was still separated by three small levels. Li Tianyan is at the early stage of ninth level. There are early stage, middle stage and late stage/peak stage in one level of cultivation. The snake demon is at the peak stage of ninth level.
Late stage and peak stage could be a bit different but only a tiny bit where peak is like almost breaking the barrier to the next cultivation level.
