Chapter 145: Sympathetic Pain

After the magical projection show ended, the trio rode their stylish magic broom motorcycles, tracing a brilliant streak of light under the moonlight, and soon returned to the dormitory area of Starry Sky Magic Academy.

As luck would have it, Li Yunxin’s dormitory wasn’t far from theirs.

After bidding farewell to Li Yunxin, Su Liyue collapsed onto her velvet-canopied bed as soon as she returned to the dorm.

The day’s experiences had left her utterly exhausted, to the point where she didn’t even want to move a finger. To make matters worse, a strange cramp suddenly seized her lower abdomen, causing her to curl up involuntarily.

‘Here it comes again…’ Su Liyue bit her lip, fine sweat beading on her forehead.

‘Could it be the refreshments after the auction? If it still hurts tomorrow, I might have to ask for leave…’

A soft click came from the bathroom door, and Mu Wanqing stepped out, drying her wet hair. Her thin silk pajamas, damp from steam, turned semi-transparent, outlining the girl’s graceful curves. Droplets from her hair tips slid along her collarbone into her collar, looking rather alluring—but Su Liyue was clearly in no state to notice.

“Yueyue? You look terrible…” She reached out to feel Su’s forehead, her pajama collar slightly gaping.

“It’s, it’s nothing!” Su hurriedly turned her flushed face away and pulled the blanket up to her nose. “Maybe I ate something bad… I’ll be fine after some sleep…” Her voice was muffled in the down comforter, but her heart pounded like a trapped rabbit.

At the same time Su Liyue curled up in bed, the star ore in Ye Xingchen’s hand in his dorm suddenly dropped with a clink.

He had been immersed in the final adjustments of the magic gun—this alchemical weapon that fused two worlds had finally stopped exploding after replacing the core component with star ore. This mysterious ore from the cosmos could actually bear the spiritual energy he infused, which truly surprised him.

‘Looks like I can go find Li Yunxin tonight to swap for the black blade…’ Ye Xingchen was about to stand up.

But before he finished speaking, a sharp cramp suddenly came from that body, forcing him to steady himself by grabbing the workbench.

Having reached the Transcendent Saint realm, it had been a long time since he felt pain, but this—this sensation from another body caught him off guard.

Ye Xingchen shook his head with a bitter smile; it seemed this female body was much more delicate than he had imagined.

The academy’s crystal clock pointed to midnight.

For a moment, he really wanted to use space teleportation to appear directly by Su Liyue’s bed, scoop her up, and comfort her in person. But it was just a thought. If found out, the charge of sneaking into the girls’ dormitory alone would be enough to socially kill him at the academy. As for sneaking in at midnight to take his female self out? That would surely scare Mu Wanqing so much she’d never sleep well again.

Forget it, I’ll check again tomorrow. If not, I’ll go to the infirmary. If healing spells don’t work, I’ll use pills to adjust her constitution. But logically, after cultivating the Yin-Yang Heaven & Earth Art, the female body should have its own spiritual energy; it shouldn’t be this fragile. Could it really be just a bad stomach from something she ate?

Thinking this, Ye Xingchen glanced at Liu Yuxuan, who was still working overtime practicing alchemy, and silently marveled: this turncoat was actually quite diligent. He had thought Liu would give up soon due to the difficulty, but who knew he would keep at it from morning—when Su Liyue and the others went out—all the way until night. Truly, people in love cannot be judged by common sense.

“Alright, alchemy can’t be mastered in a day. You still have class tomorrow. How about calling it a night and resting early?” Ye Xingchen said with concern, coming over to Liu’s side to comfort him.

“It’s okay, Brother Xingchen. I’m not tired yet. For Sister Yunxin, I need to work even harder.” Liu Yuxuan carefully controlled the heat, clearly intending to continue.

“For Sister Yunxin, you shouldn’t ruin your health either. What if one day you two get together, and on your wedding night, you find yourself… lacking strength, impotent… Wouldn’t that be rather awkward?”

“Im, impotent?! What?” Liu Yuxuan’s hand jerked, nearly overturning the alchemy furnace.

“Don’t panic~ When you succeed, I’ll teach you a ‘Golden Gun Unyielding Pill,’ guaranteed to make you a real man!”
