Chapter 1322 - 1315: This Method Won't Work
The usual evening routine was not to be missed. Despite Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan being bothered by the matter concerning Su Yuya, when the time came, they forgot everything, completely losing themselves in it.
When Song Xiaodong was with them, he never forgot about dual cultivation. Though their strength was weak and the benefits to him were negligible, it brought them significant advantages.
Song Xiaodong hoped their abilities would improve so that they could have more opportunities to protect themselves in the future.
After everyone calmed down, a bold idea suddenly crossed Song Xiaodong's mind.
"I just thought of a way to dissolve Aunt's True Qi." Song Xiaodong exclaimed excitedly.
Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan, who were already exhausted and on the verge of sleep, instantly perked up at Song Xiaodong's words. Miao Qingqing quickly asked, "Ah, what method?"
Song Xiaodong said excitedly, "My method is... ah! This method won't work." Midway through speaking, Song Xiaodong's expression suddenly became peculiar.
"What happened?" Miao Qingqing's heart sank instantly.
Song Xiaodong grimaced and said, "It's not that the method won't work, but I can't use it on Aunt."
"What's going on, why are you hesitating?" Miao Xuanxuan complained, nudging Song Xiaodong, "We're all so worried about Aunt, and you're still hemming and hawing."
Song Xiaodong forced a wry smile and said, "I thought of it while I was with you...," at this he looked even more awkward, but seeing Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan's eager expressions, he had to brace himself and say, "If dual cultivation is possible, I might be able to dissolve the strange True Qi in her body."
"Ah..." Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan both showed peculiar expressions.
They clearly knew what dual cultivation entailed, meaning they would have to engage in relations. If it were anyone else, for the sake of the person's life, they would surely agree. But because it was their aunt, the idea seemed too absurd.
Song Xiaodong said helplessly, "That's why I said the method won't work, and besides, I'm only guessing there might be a chance; I'm not really confident. If it doesn't work, wouldn't that be... ahem."
Both Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan were at a loss, not knowing what to do at this point.
Song Xiaodong quickly said, "Don't worry, I just thought of one method. Give me a few more days to think about it, and perhaps I'll come up with other solutions soon."
Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan both nodded, apparently having no choice but to wait, and if there really were no other solutions, then they'd have to consider it.
The next day, Song Xiaodong got up early and ran into Su Yuya downstairs.
"Good morning, Aunt!" Song Xiaodong greeted.
A blush appeared on Su Yuya's face as she said, "You're up early."
"Yeah, just getting some exercise."
"I need to move too. After yesterday's events, I suddenly feel I may not have much time left. If I don't move now, I may not have the chance in the future."
As Su Yuya spoke, a look of desolation appeared on her face.
Song Xiaodong felt a pang of sorrow and quickly said, "Aunt, don't give up. I'm sure I can cure you. Since we have some time this morning, let me examine you again and find out what's going on with your True Qi."
Su Yuya looked at Song Xiaodong and said, "Is there still hope?"
Song Xiaodong said, "Of course, I never lied to you. If there was no hope, I wouldn't have told you the truth yesterday. I would have lied to spare you the mental burden."
Su Yuya gazed at Song Xiaodong, saying, "I've gotten to know you during this time. From your eyes, I sense there is still hope for me. Go ahead and examine me."
"Of course, I wouldn't deceive you, Aunt."
They went to Su Yuya's room. Su Yuya sat by the bed, glanced at Song Xiaodong with a hint of blush, and asked, "Do I need to take off my clothes?"
Song Xiaodong coughed lightly and said, "Not this time. Yesterday was unavoidable; I hope you don't mind, Aunt."
"Mind about what? I didn't even understand what was happening then." Su Yuya rolled her eyes at Song Xiaodong, saying, "Do I just need to lie down?"
"Yes." Song Xiaodong nodded.
Su Yuya lay down, and Song Xiaodong sat beside her, first feeling her pulse.
The True Qi entered seamlessly, with no obstruction in Su Yuya's meridians, not a trace of True Qi present.
Reaching the Dantian, Song Xiaodong again felt the chaotic presence of True Qi, which repelled his True Qi upon contact.
Releasing Su Yuya's wrist, Song Xiaodong squinted in thought. Meanwhile, lying on the bed, Su Yuya watched him silently, her face blushing at some point.
"Aunt, I still need to examine your Dantian; checking through the pulse isn't effective enough, so I need to..."
"Place your hand on my lower abdomen, right?" Su Yuya straightforwardly said.
Song Xiaodong nodded.
"Then go ahead, yesterday was already like that. Why would I fear this?"
Song Xiaodong immediately coughed awkwardly, while Su Yuya realized her words went too far and quickly added, "You're treating me, I'm not overthinking it. Just hurry, I don't want to leave this world so soon; I still want to live well for a few more years."
