With three supreme masters, they were invincible upon descending the mountain.

"You're Ye Yaocheng?"

Ji Zheng sat on the main sofa, his gaze sweeping over him from head to toe like a scanner, his eyes cold.

"Yes."

"I believe you are aware of my daughter's situation."

Ji Zheng leaned forward, his eyes sharp. "I heard you've been missing for eight years. Where have you been all these years?"

Ye Yaocheng was silent for a moment, just about to speak…

"That Ye family!" Ji Zheng slammed his hand on the table, his voice suddenly rising. "They think they can fool me with just anyone? Even though my status in the family has declined, it's not like just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can be thrown in here!"

The teacup rattled loudly on the table.

"alright."

Li Yuxiu, dressed in a plain cheongsam, exuded an elegant demeanor. She first glanced at Ji Zheng, gently shook her head, and then turned to Ye Yaocheng.

Her gaze lingered on his face for a few seconds, growing more and more satisfied with it.

"I agreed to this."

Before Ji Zheng could say anything more, Li Yuxiu turned around and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see my daughter."

The room at the end of the corridor on the second floor.

When the door was pushed open, a faint fragrance of gardenias wafted out.

The curtains were half-open, and sunlight slanted across the bedside. A girl lay quietly, covered with a plain-colored thin blanket.

Ye Yaocheng took two steps closer and saw her face clearly.

At first glance, it's stunning.

Her skin was porcelain white, her eyelashes were long and thick, her nose was straight and upturned, and her lips were full. Even with her eyes closed, you could still see the exquisite contours of her features.

If it weren't for her extremely pale complexion, she would have been an exceptionally bright and charming girl.

"Her name is Ji Mingyue," Li Yuxiu said softly. "She's been in a coma for a year."

Ye Yaocheng nodded, his gaze falling on Ji Mingyue's face.

Very strange.

Wasn't it said to be ugly? How come it doesn't match the information I heard? But none of that matters anymore.

But he didn't ask anything.

Half an hour later, a very simple ceremony was held in the small living room of the villa.

There were no guests, no formal attire, only Ji Zheng, Li Yuxiu, and a lawyer who had been called in at the last minute.

Sign and stamp.

The lawyer read a brief statement of testimony, then put away the documents: "Legally speaking, you two are now husband and wife."

Throughout the entire process, Ye Yaocheng remained an observer.

"Yaocheng." Li Yuxiu walked over, took his hand, and looked at him earnestly. "I'm entrusting Mingyue to you from now on. You must make her happy."

Ye Yaocheng paused for a moment, then nodded: "I will do my best."

"snort!"

Ji Zheng snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeve.

The door was slammed shut with a loud bang.

Li Yuxiu did not leave immediately.

She took a bank card out of her handbag and handed it to Ye Yaocheng.

"There's five million here, consider it a small gift."

"As long as you treat Mingyue well in the future, feel free to ask for anything you need."

Ye Yaocheng did not answer.

He looked at her, his mind racing as he analyzed the situation.

Not right.

According to the normal script, this kind of "lucky son-in-law" should be someone who is disliked, neglected, and even trampled on by the servants.

But Li Yuxiu's attitude...

This is very unusual.

"Take it." Li Yuxiu shoved the card into his hand without allowing him to refuse. "I know what you're thinking, but with Mingyue in this state, there aren't many people who can truly care for her."

The documents sent by the Ye family show that you risked your life to save your elder brother eight years ago, and you're willing to come again now. I trust your character.

"Those who are trash, I don't want them; those who are too good, they don't want us; someone like you is just right."

The door closed gently.

The room fell silent.

Ye Yaocheng looked at the bank card in his hand, then at Ji Mingyue, who was lying unconscious on the bed.

Finally, he walked to the bedside, sat down, stared at Ji Mingyue for a while, and raised an eyebrow.

"My wife... seems to be more than she appears."

As he spoke, he reached out and gently placed his palm on Ji Mingyue's forehead.

Close your eyes.

A tiny wisp of true energy flowed into her body through her palm.

This is the "pulse detection technique" he learned from his master, which allows him to perceive the deepest state of life in the human body.

Take a breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths...

Ye Yaocheng suddenly opened his eyes!

An incredulous look of surprise flashed in his eyes!

"This is... a naturally occurring spiritual body?!"

The feedback from the true qi was incredibly clear: Ji Mingyue's physical structure was completely different from that of ordinary people. Her meridians were naturally unobstructed, her bones were as smooth as jade, and every cell contained astonishing life energy.

Innate spiritual body.

A perfect creation of heaven and earth, its cultivation speed is ten or even a hundred times faster than that of ordinary people, and its affinity with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is ridiculously high.

The master said: There are only two ways to solve his fundamental problem—

Find the Supreme Bone.

Alternatively, one could find a spirit body created by the heavens and earth, which must be a woman, to harmonize yin and yang, and this innate spirit body is among the most advanced of these.

He had thought that this kind of physique only existed in legends.

did not expect……

It just happened like that.

She also became his wife in name only.

Ye Yaocheng took a deep breath to suppress his excitement.

No more hesitation.

Ye Yaocheng lifted the thin blanket.

Ji Mingyue was wearing a plain white nightgown, her figure barely concealed beneath the fabric. She was indeed beautiful, even in her unconscious state, she possessed a fragile and delicate beauty.

Ye Yaocheng's Adam's apple bobbed.

Having been single for many years, and at the prime of his life, this scene inevitably stirred his heart.

But he quickly suppressed his distracting thoughts.

Her fingers touched Ji Mingyue's wrist.

The true energy probed in again.

This time, we went deeper and more carefully.

Half a minute later, Ye Yaocheng frowned.

"wrong……"

He sensed an extremely cold and stubborn power lingering near Ji Mingyue's heart meridian. That power seemed to be alive, constantly eroding her vitality.

"Yin Sha Poison?"

Ye Yaocheng's eyes sharpened.

He had seen this poison in his second master's ancient books; it was an ancient and rare poison, colorless and odorless, and capable of penetrating anywhere.

The poisoned person will gradually fall into a coma, their life force will be eroded, and they will eventually die in their sleep.

Modern medicine cannot detect it at all.

Not to mention treatment.

"No wonder those famous doctors were helpless," Ye Yaocheng muttered to himself.

He no longer hesitated.

Raise your right hand, fingers spread wide.

Nine nearly transparent silver needles flew out from the sleeve, hovering in mid-air, their tips trembling slightly.

This is the "Nine Yang Needle Technique" passed down from the master's father.

It is effective against yin and evil influences and can cure all diseases.

"go."

Ye Yaocheng changed his hand gesture.

Nine silver needles transformed into streams of light, precisely piercing nine major acupoints on Ji Mingyue!

Ji Mingyue's body trembled slightly.

Ye Yaocheng reached out and grasped her wrist. The touch was soft and delicate, and his heart skipped a beat, but he immediately focused.

Milky white true energy surged into her body along her arm.

Like warm sunlight shining into a frozen river.

An invisible battle unfolds within Ji Mingyue's body.

A quarter of an hour.

Ye Yaocheng's forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat.

Finally, all nine silver needles trembled simultaneously!

"rise!"

The silver needle flew out.

Each needle tip drew out a drop of black blood, which floated in the air, radiating a bone-chilling cold.

On the bed, Ji Mingyue's pale face had a faint blush.

Her breathing became a little more steady.

Just then...

"ah--!!"

A scream rang out from the doorway!

Ye Yaocheng suddenly turned his head.

Wang Ma, Ji Mingyue's personal nanny, stood in the doorway, her eyes wide, her finger trembling as she pointed at him: "You, what did you do to my young lady?!"

"Wait, I was..." Ye Yaocheng was about to explain.

But Wang Ma had already turned and run, disappearing at the end of the corridor.

Trouble.

Two minutes later.

The sound of hurried footsteps grew louder as they approached.

boom!

The door was pushed open roughly.

Ji Zheng rushed in and immediately saw Ye Yaocheng standing by the bed. Ji Mingyue's blanket was pulled back, and her nightgown was somewhat disheveled.

"brute!!"

Ji Zheng's eyes instantly turned red, and he punched Ye Yaocheng in the face!

Ye Yaocheng sidestepped.

"Husband, calm down!" Li Yuxiu quickly pulled Ji Zheng aside and hurried to the bedside to carefully examine her daughter.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she found that her clothes were intact and her body was unharmed.

"Ye Yaocheng!"

"What are you doing?"

"Treat her illness," Ye Yaocheng said calmly. "Mingyue has been poisoned."

"Poisoning?" Ji Zheng laughed angrily. "I've consulted the best doctors in the country, even the renowned physician Jiang Tianhai was helpless! And you, a mere brat, are telling me you're poisoned? And you want to treat me?"

He pointed at Ye Yaocheng's nose:

"You've been wandering for eight years, have you somehow acquired some extraordinary medical skills?!"

Ye Yaocheng did not explain.

Explaining it won't help.

The Yin Sha Poison is not recorded in modern medical systems at all; mentioning it would only be considered sophistry.

"What, speechless now?" Ji Zheng sneered. "Let me tell you, this isn't over! If you dare lay a finger on Mingyue, I'll make sure you never leave the Ji family compound!"

Li Yuxiu looked at Ye Yaocheng with a complicated expression: "Yaocheng, you have disappointed me greatly."

Ye Yaocheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke:

"What if I could cure her?"

"Cured?"

Ji Zheng thought he'd heard the biggest joke in the world. "Fine! If you can cure Mingyue, I, Ji Zheng, will never make things difficult for you again! I'll treat you like an ancestor!"

The moment the words fell.

No one noticed Ji Mingyue's fingers on the bed.

Very slightly...

It moved slightly!
