Chapter 719: Chapter 739: Of Course, I Can Only Forgive Him_1

The spiritual energy that surged between Heaven and Earth was incredibly pure, and the amount was vast. A significant portion entered Qiao Wei’s body, and a small portion entered Lin Chen’s body as he held Qiao Wei.

Lin Chen did not want to take advantage of Qiao Wei and affect her promotion, but at this moment, being on high altitude and Qiao Wei being unconscious, Lin Chen couldn’t just let her go, right?

Even though they could land in the valley, Lin Chen was worried that once they landed, the spiritual energy in the air would lose its target, and the process would be interrupted. What could he do then?

Fortunately, only a small portion entered Lin Chen’s body. Gritting his teeth, Lin Chen decided to take this benefit.

Although the proportion absorbed by Lin Chen was small, he was in the Golden Core Realm, and when Qiao Wei passed the Thunder Tribulation and succeeded in promotion, she would be a Nascent Soul Stage expert with a significant difference in strength. The amount of spiritual energy that wasn’t much for Qiao Wei was definitely not little for Lin Chen.

Lin Chen had previously helped Qiao Wei refine her Sword Bone, sitting still for three months, that is, cultivating for three months, and his strength had already improved a lot. And now, with the pure spiritual energy pouring into his body, his Golden Core spun crazily, absorbing wildly, and his strength rapidly and steadily rose.

The duration of the Heavenly Earthly Spiritual Qi infusion was not long, but the effect was incredibly intense.

Qiao Wei’s powerful aura kept climbing, and her whole being exuded a ferocious, wild aura like a fierce beast. Because Qiao Wei was unconscious, the aura was unrestrained, overwhelming, and making people’s heart palpitate.

As the spiritual energy poured crazily, many of Qiao Wei’s wounds healed at a visible speed, scabs formed, and then fell off, revealing her fair-skinned, smooth skin again, showing no signs of her previous miserable state.

Here comes the awkward situation.

Qiao Wei’s clothes were all turned to Flying Ashes under the thunder and lightning, leaving her body bare. Before, her injuries were all bloodstained and scorched, looking extremely pitiful and only stirring sympathy and concern. But now that the injuries were healed, she was back to her original appearance, and her skin was even more fair-skinned and smooth since it was all new growth.

When refining the Sword Bone was completed, an accident had already occurred, and Lin Chen had a feast for his eyes. Now, it was even more exaggerated.

There was no covering at all.

Close at hand, everything was in plain sight!

No, she was even in Lin Chen’s arms, being held in a princess hold, and all her beauty was displayed right in front of Lin Chen.

It had been more than a year since Lin Chen had touched a woman, and this scene almost made him have a nosebleed.

Lin Chen had no choice but to close his eyes, not look, not think, and just desperately absorb the spiritual energy infused into his body, trying to distract himself.

Time passed, the raging spiritual energy in the sky gradually stopped, and the sky returned to normal.

Lin Chen opened his eyes and, making sure that the spiritual energy infusion was over, hurriedly descended into the valley with Qiao Wei. Then he took out a blanket from his Spatial Ring, spread it on a flat stone and put her down, then took out another blanket and draped it over her.

After that, Lin Chen finally let out a sigh of relief.

Just as Lin Chen was about to get up, Qiao Wei opened her eyes. For a moment, their four eyes met.

Lin Chen was flustered in an instant.

"Senior Sister, you’re awake..."

Qiao Wei looked down at the blanket on her body. She didn’t need to lift the blanket to know that she had no clothes on. Her face turned red immediately, and her eyes showed a hint of embarrassment.

Lin Chen hurriedly explained, "When the last lightning wave struck, you passed out and fell from the sky. I caught you because I was afraid you’d get hurt. Then we had the spiritual energy infusion, and I was afraid if we landed in the valley, it would get interrupted, so I had no choice but to hold you in mid-air while we received the spiritual energy infusion. I... I didn’t look too much..."

Lin Chen was originally going to say that he hadn’t looked at her, but in the end, he couldn’t say such an insincere remark. With things the way they were, who would believe that he hadn’t looked?

Qiao Wei gritted her teeth and asked out of the blue, "Did you find me attractive?"

Caught off guard by the question, Lin Chen instinctively replied, "Attractive... Uh, Senior Sister, I didn’t mean to, I closed my eyes later..."

Looking at Lin Chen’s awkward explanations, Qiao Wei felt a complex mix of emotions along with her embarrassment.

This little bastard!

He had seen it all, held her in his arms, what else could she do?

Of course, she could only forgive him.

He had saved her after all. She couldn’t just kill him because he had held her and seen her, right?

Qiao Wei humphed and said, "Turn your head."

Lin Chen quickly turned around as the sound of clothes rustling came from behind him.

Images involuntarily surfaced in Lin Chen’s mind, so he took a deep breath, gazing into the distance to dispel his wild thoughts.

After a while, Qiao Wei was dressed neatly and has collected her emotions. She looked at Lin Chen’s tall back and her heart stirred a little.

There had already been one awkward misunderstanding before. Now, there was another one. How could she face him?

Thinking of herself, naked, being held by Lin Chen, Qiao Wei’s face flushed slightly.

"Alright, let’s go back."

Turning his head, Lin Chen looked at Qiao Wei, who was calm again, and asked, "Senior Sister, did you succeed in your promotion?"
