Awakened: The Spirit King!

The night deepened.

Darkness invaded the land, and the cloudy black sky gave off an oppressive aura that pressed down on the mortals below.

Standing beneath such a sky were many people, and they were all looking towards the Xie Manor's third young master's chamber and wondering why he had called for them.

"Young master, may I come in?" Xie Ye questioned.

Xie Yang replied in a low but clear voice, "Wait a moment."

Lin Hua was sleeping. As she looked too cute at the moment, he didn't want to wake her up and wanted to admire her beauty for a while. On top of that, as she was too beautiful and he was possessive of her, he didn't want to let anyone except himself admire this view of her.

Thus, he set up a spiritual barrier around the bed, which made it impossible for anyone outside of it to see what was happening inside it.

Furthermore, he solidified his spiritual energy around her ears.

No matter how loud a person shouts, their voice won't reach her.

Only after doing all that did Xie Yang say, "Come in."

'My young master is too possessive of his little wife." Xie Ye had heard that Xie Yang loved the young miss of the Lin Family a lot and was overly possessive of her, but he didn't overthink about it. However, after seeing that his young master had used a barrier to keep her hidden from his merciless eyes, Xie Ye was certain that his young master loved her so much that he would kill for her!

Xie Yang set his gaze on Xie Ye, who was behind the barrier, and asked, "Have you brought the people and the materials needed to complete the spiritual energy gathering array?"

Xie Ye nodded his head, "Yes, young master."

"Where are they?" Xie Yang questioned.

Xie Ye replied, "Outside the room."

Xie Yang pulled out a paper that he had prepared just for this moment and pushed it out of the barrier before waving it before Xie Ye.

"Tell them to sketch what I've drawn on this paper around my courtyard." After Xie Yang said that, Xie Ye grabbed it.

"I got it." Xie Ye went out and ordered the shadow guards talented in drawing runes and creating talismans to inscribe an array around the courtyard.

Several moments later, Xie Yang stepped out of his courtyard.

At this moment, many people who had completed their task were standing still, and the rest just finished inscribing the last stroke to complete the array on the ground.

The shadow guards saw him and immediately paid their respect to him by lowering their heads, bending their back slightly, and cupping their hands towards him: "Young Master Yang."

Everyone here respected him because of the accomplishments he had made and also because he was the cherished son of their master.

Thus, no one dared to ignore his presence.

"Are the preparation complete?" Xie Yang said after meeting up with his stepbrother.

Xie Ye took a moment to sense that the array was attracting spiritual energy from the surrounding towards his young master's chamber and then looked towards him and said, "Yes."

Xie Yang's clenched his fists within his sleeves and looked up at the moon.

"I hope everything goes as planned."

He lowered his head and stared at the shadow guards with a slight smile: "The moon today is not shy, and the weather tonight is cold; all of you should go to the brothels, admire the moon with the beauties, drink some alcohol, and have fun with them to warm your bodies.

"Young master, we're misers with nothing to our name."

"Who is going to pay for our expenditures?"

"If master found out that we went to a brothel to have fun, he will break our third legs! Who is going to guarantee our safety?"

Shadow guards weren't poor and earned a lot each month; however, most of them wouldn't save a single cent and either give their income to the families of their fallen brothers, spend it on spiritual objects and save whatever they were left with at the end of the month to help the city's treasury when it runs low on money.

"That's not for you to worry! It's all on me!" While saying this, Xie Yang flicked gold coins towards the shadow guards, and they fell in their sweaty palms.

"Our thanks to Young Master Yang for the generosity you've bestowed us." The seven to eight people happily thanked him, and then they flashed out of his courtyard and went out of the manor to have fun outside.

"Can I go too?" Xie Ye, too, wanted to go to the brothels not to have fun but to investigate a suspicious matter.

Xie Yang shook his head, "Of course not."

"What do you need me for?" Xie Ye walked after him.

Xie Yang handed over a pouch of crystallized versions of spiritual energy to Xie Ye and said, "I need you to supply the array with spiritual crystals for me."

Then, he closed the door, locking him outside.

Xie Ye, who wanted to refuse but could no longer do that, sighed and got to work.

He crushed three to four stones, and spiritual mist came out of them, which he directed into the array, feeding it. As a result, it became more effective at pulling the Qi from the surrounding. Visible to all were waves of blue rushing towards the Xie Manor. It was as if a black hole had opened up there.

"Baby, wake up." Xie Yang nudged the sleeping beauty in order to wake her up.

Because he was gently nudging her, Lin Hua woke up, but as she was too sleepy, she acted spoiled like a baby, "Hmm, let me sleep for a few minutes more."

Xie Yang slid his tongue inside her before she closed her lips that she opened to utter those words. He greeted her tongue with a passionate lick before wounding around it.

His intense sexual actions surprised her so much that her sleep vanished, and her eyes widened.

He could see no trace of tiredness in them.

"Hua'er, are you wide awake?" Xie Yang asked after the kiss.

"Ah yes," Lin Hua, feeling bashful, replied.

Xie Yang took out the box with the spirit gathering needles and the flower of death and placed them on the bed before turning to his wife and saying, "In that case, I will start healing you. I need your full cooperation for my method to work, so follow my advice words to words, alright?"

"I understand." Lin Hua looked so cute while saying that and nodding her head that Xie Yang couldn't help but pat her.

Surprisingly, in the next moment, he began striping her.

'Why are you taking off my clothes? Are you going to help me or fuck me?!' Lin Hua looked at him with those big innocent eyes of her that pinned wrong blame on him.

Xie Yang understood the meaning behind her gaze when he looked at her, and then he turned his face away with a snort.

He was no beast!

She had misunderstood his good intentions for something bad!

His actions startled Lin Hua, and she felt a bit guilty, thinking that she might have misjudged him again.

"Alright, don't be mad with me. I'm sorry."

Lin Hua wrapped her hands around his neck while uttering words of apology in his ears.

Xie Yang's heart softened under her assault to attract his attention.

"How are you going to treat me?" She meowed in his ears.

Xie Yang turned his face to her, a smile vivid on his face.

He explained, "Baby, the cause of your disability isn't a mere illness but your mortal body's inability to refine the Primordial Yin Qi in your elixir field. You are born with an exceptional physique that creates a lot of it every year. However, as you failed to refine it in time, instead of becoming a genius that others could only look up to, you ended up in this state.

As you grew older, the amount of it increased in your elixir field. Once it could no longer contain it, it started leaking the excess amount of it into the veins and bones of your lower body, which led to your feet and legs paralyzing over time. In a few years, if we don't do anything to help you refine it, your body won't be able to endure it, and your conditions will get worse.

But you don't need to worry about it happening. I'm going to open your spiritual meridians, and help you make it flow into them by using acupuncture. Once you clear your bones and elixir field of the Primordial Yin Qi, you will start feeling better. After tonight, you will be able to stand up on your feet. That I can promise."

After hearing his words, a sense of disbelief filled her.

"Will I really?" While asking this, she looked at him with wide eyes full of happiness and anticipation.

"Mm-hmmm."

When he sounded a noise of agreement, a sweet smile blossomed on her pretty face.
