“Stop, stop, stop!” Chi Lian raised her jade hand, interrupting Ye Qingxuan’s countdown. “You really have no sense of fun. Fine, I’ll state my conclusion directly.”

“That Han Lie might possess a special constitution called the ‘Undying Sacred Body’.”

The Undying Sacred Body is an extremely rare special constitution. It possesses astonishing self-healing capabilities and can also enhance its bearer’s cultivation talent. If an Undying Sacred Body grows to its extreme, it can almost be considered undying and indestructible. Unless one completely eradicates his physical body, primordial spirit, and consciousness in one go, he is practically unkillable!

This special constitution is exceedingly rare in this world. Chi Lian originally didn’t believe Han Lie possessed an Undying Sacred Body. But his circumstances indeed bore a striking resemblance to it.

“Undying Sacred Body? This Palace does not think so,” Ye Qingxuan shook her head. “The Undying Sacred Body is an innate special constitution. If that Han Lie truly possessed it, how could he have fallen so low as to become a Servant Disciple in the Heavenly Void Sect?”

“In his younger years, This Palace abused him more than once. Each time, he required lengthy recuperation periods to recover.”

“He showed no semblance whatsoever of having an Undying Sacred Body.”

Chi Lian nodded thoughtfully.

If what Ye Qingxuan said was true, then Han Lie indeed didn’t seem like someone with an Undying Sacred Body.

So she asked in return, “This Han Lie… anyone with eyes can see he has undergone obvious changes compared to his past self over these hundred years.”

“Something significant must have happened to him.”

“My dear Sect Leader, what then is your understanding?”

Ye Qingxuan didn’t answer directly but stood up and searched through her bookshelf until she found what she wanted: Comprehensive Records of Special Constitutions in Tianyuan Continent.

So far, not many types of special constitutions have appeared on the Tianyuan Continent. Only nine kinds.

Therefore, Ye Qingxuan quickly found—based on her understanding of Han Lie—a special constitution that fit his situation better than the Undying Sacred Body.

The Pure Yang Sacred Body!

“Pure Yang Sacred Body? That… seems unlikely,” seeing Ye Qingxuan stop on the page introducing the Pure Yang Sacred Body, Chi Lian couldn’t help but click her tongue.

“There is no other explanation besides this,” Ye Qingxuan stated with great certainty.

Chi Lian hadn’t engaged in Dual Cultivation with Han Lie; naturally, she wasn’t very familiar. But Ye Qingxuan knew all too well.

According to the book’s introduction, the Pure Yang Sacred Body is an acquired special constitution. It has an extremely small probability of activating only after first engaging in intercourse with a woman and undergoing cleansing by Yin energy of sufficient degree.

From this point alone, Han Lie met the prerequisite for activating the Pure Yang Sacred Body. In over a hundred years at the Heavenly Void Sect, let alone intercourse with women, Han Lie hadn’t even held a woman’s hand.

That night not long ago, with his lifespan nearing its end, Han Lie acted recklessly out of desperation and took advantage when she was vulnerable. Under forced attraction from the Yin Yang Demonic Art, Ye Qingxuan, half-resisting, half-yielding, ended up having relations with him.

Given her cultivation at Soul Formation Stage Perfection back then, the Yin energy was absolutely sufficient for someone like him at Qi Refining Level Two.

Moreover, the book clearly stated: The Pure Yang Sacred Body indeed possesses strong self-healing capabilities—though not comparable to the Undying Sacred Body which specializes in healing—but still significant.

Plus, the super-incubus attributes of the Pure Yang Sacred Body…

“No wonder This Palace finds herself looking upon Han Lie more favorably lately! So it was due to the Pure Yang Sacred Body at work!” Ye Qingxuan let out a long sigh.

Initially, she thought it was because her body had been taken by him, so when looking at him again, she didn’t feel as much disdain as before. Turns out it was because of this!

Furthermore, the Pure Yang Sacred Body also offers immense benefits for female cultivators—can be called a perfect tonic without exaggeration—which explains why during their second Dual Cultivation session, the effects Ye Qingxuan obtained exceeded her expectations significantly!

“Alright, alright~ Since you’re so certain, I believe you,” Chi Lian continued asking. “So what next?”

“Given his early experiences within the Heavenly Void Sect, once he grows powerful enough, he might seek revenge against us… or possibly… he might flee the Heavenly Void Sect altogether!”

“In that case, all our efforts nurturing him would go wasted!”

Ye Qingxuan fell into deep thought.

Then Chi Lian’s eyes shifted cunningly, proposing, “How about while he hasn’t grown strong yet, we imprison him and use him as our Cultivation Furnace?”

“No!” After pondering for quite some time, Ye Qingxuan gave her stance clearly!

If placed earlier, perhaps she might have chosen such a method! But now, there’s no need anymore!

“Why?” Chi Lian asked, puzzled. “Can you guarantee once grown powerful enough he won’t seek revenge or flee the Heavenly Void Sect?”

Ye Qingxuan nodded lightly. “I will handle it properly, Chi Lian.”

“Isn’t so-called cultivating immortality all about attaining immortality? If merely imprisoning him and using him as a furnace, given my aptitude, attaining immortality is hopeless!”

“The only way to attain immortality relies upon a grown-up, powerful enough Han Lie assisting me!”

Thinking about the scene of attaining immortality… Ye Qingxuan’s vermilion lips involuntarily curved into a slight arc!

When first taken advantage of by him earlier, she still regretted why she didn’t find a superior furnace beforehand, but instead was bound together with a servant’s Yang energy! Now looking back, she actually picked up a huge bargain!

Countless billions of Tianyuan Continent cultivators over millennia may not be able to produce one Pure Yang Sacred Body! Such heaven-sent fortune actually let her stumble upon it!

Next step: need to secretly cultivate and nurture Han Lie, find a way to make him forgive past actions towards him! Finally grasp hold of his heart, make him become her own Dao Companion, and that’s it!

Before discovering the Pure Yang Sacred Body, she felt like swan meat eaten by a toad like him! Now, conversely, it became herself climbing high branches towards him!

Hearing “attain immortality,” Chi Lian’s eyes turned a few shades clearer!

“My good sister, the attaining immortality matter cannot forget me, ya!” Chi Lian hugged Ye Qingxuan’s arm, acting coquettishly!

“Naturally won’t forget you,” Ye Qingxuan said. “Now discussing attaining immortality is still too distant. At present, we first need to cultivate and nurture him, and remove the grudge in his heart towards the Heavenly Void Sect!”

This matter, say difficult, not too difficult; say simple, also not simple. After all, Han Lie is not a twenty-year-old youngster fresh out of the thatched cottage. Aged over a hundred and ten years within the sect, having seen too much darkness, his mind has long matured and cannot mature further. The general carrot-and-stick approach definitely won’t work!

So how to make him let go of his grudge towards the sect?

Ye Qingxuan and Chi Lian still need to properly rack their brains!
