Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

Certainly, here is the translated text:

”Little Ling’Er, how come...”

The Empress Dowager was momentarily stunned, full of astonishment. The young girl, however, braced her frail body and cast her gaze toward the direction of the door, lightly saying, ”Empress Dowager, they have come out.”

”Oh?”

The Empress Dowager then snapped back to reality; her attention had been entirely focused on Ling’Er earlier, without noticing that the presence of Qin Yu and Yan Yu had quietly appeared in the room that had vanished.

”So quickly?”

The Empress Dowager stood up, her heart filled with concern for Yan Yu’s safety, intending to go and see him.

”Empress Dowager, I wish to go as well.”

Ling’Er struggled to stand up, her beautiful big eyes conveying a desire that one could hardly refuse.

”But...”

The Empress Dowager had intended for her to continue resting on the Cold Jade Bed, but seeing her insistence, she quickly stepped forward and gently steadied her.

”If you feel any discomfort later, be sure to tell me immediately.”

The Empress Dowager spoke with concern, not forgetting to remind her.

Upon stepping out of the room, she immediately saw Qin Yu carefully supporting Yan Yu, and doubt slowly arose in the Empress Dowager’s heart.

Did Qin Yu really go to heal Yan Yu?

Observing Yan Yu’s staggering steps, finding even walking to be difficult, the injury seemed to be more severe? Yet, Yan Yu’s injury was not on the legs.

However, Yan Yu looked rosy, seemingly indeed improved.

Simply incredible.

The special black qi had clearly permeated Yan Yu’s flesh and meridians, something even she couldn’t handle. How did Qin Yu achieve it?!

”Empress Dowager, Princess!”

Qin Yu supported Yan Yu, and the two of them saluted together, speaking respectfully.

Yet, when the Empress Dowager and the Princess stepped out of the room, he instinctively threw a glance.

The Empress Dowager, who originally seemed like a Fairy from a cold palace, had now donned a stunning phoenix robe, surrounded by an aura of nobility and elegance, as if all the world’s brilliance had dimmed before her.

Especially noteworthy were the two phoenixes on the robe, elevated prominently, embodying a dynamic lifelike quality, as if ready to spread their wings and fly with the Empress Dowager’s steps.

Vivid and lifelike.

Qin Yu secretly marveled, perhaps only the big watermelon of the Beautiful Master’s wife could compare to this Great Phoenix.

”Yan Yu, let me take a look at your injury!”

The Empress Dowager seemingly disregarded the cumbersome etiquette, stepping forward with her Great Phoenix and gently grasping Yan Yu’s slender wrist.

A gleam of pure moonlight spread out, seemingly sensing.

Yet she did not notice that the Princess Ling’Er beside her, her complexion markedly relaxed.

The young girl’s eyes sparkled, constantly gazing at Qin Yu, seeming curious, with a hint of wanting to approach.

”Huh?!”

After a moment, the Empress Dowager softly gasped.

Clarity emerged in her perception; Yan Yu’s aura was stable, his Dao Rhyme within him abundant, presenting as if in peak condition, as though the injuries of the prior days were but an illusion.

Well, after all, those three days were merely the Lifebound Space’s time.

The little rabbit’s act of bravery still made her pay a price... even after resting for a period, she was still somewhat impaired in movement.

Originally, Qin Yu intended for her to rest completely before coming out, but the little rabbit was stubborn, unwilling to let the Empress Dowager and His Majesty continually worry about her.

”Little Yan Yu, your... your injury has actually healed?” The Empress Dowager gently parted her lips, full of disbelief in her eyes.

The injuries within Yan Yu’s body, she clearly understood.

Yet, only a day and a half had passed, how could she be fully recovered?

No, surely some hidden dangers remain!

Otherwise, why would she still need assistance while walking?!

”Empress Dowager, I’m truly fine now.”

Yan Yu wasn’t sure how to explain; her inconvenience in walking was... was because she’d listened to too many tales.

Mere fascination for the moment.

Originally, she planned to come out after recovering completely, but she simply couldn’t sustain it.

Though, the black qi within her had been entirely suppressed and significantly purified, complete eradication was just a matter of time.

”Truly odd.”

The Empress Dowager looked at Yan Yu, then curiously at Qin Yu, about to inquire but then stopped.

She remembered the Empress’s words, needing to maintain dignity before Qin Yu, avoiding a loss of decorum.

The phoenix robe she wore was also at the Empress’s command; as the Empress Dowager, dignity must be upheld!

After all, she represents the Great Yan Royal Family’s pride.

It couldn’t be blamed on the Empress Dowager, she was inherently unreserved.

”Follow me.”

The Empress Dowager gestured and led Ling’Er straight into the room; it was only then she noticed that little Ling’Er beside her appeared somewhat rejuvenated?

It was only after hearing the Empress Dowager ask Qin Yu and Yan Yu to step inside that the young girl moved her steps.

”This... is not very appropriate, is it?”

Qin Yu hesitated.

This was the Empress Dowager’s and the Princess’s residence; though in the Phoenix Carriage, a man entering seemed inappropriate?!

Yet, he honestly followed inside.

Upon stepping inside, a piercing cold instantly swept over, and if not for Qin Yu possessing a Divine Body, he might have trembled from the cold.

Besides, the interior’s layout was peculiar.

A dazzling sight filled with glittering brilliance everywhere, shimmering with a captivating glow.

Qin Yu realized that this Empress Dowager was somewhat different from the majestic sovereign he had imagined with phoenix-like presence ruling the world.

And amidst this, he also saw the source of the piercing cold.

It was a bed exuding coldness.

Could it be that the Empress Dowager and the Princess usually sleep on such a frigid cold bed?!

With this thought, Qin Yu couldn’t help but look at the porcelain-doll-like Princess.

Unexpectedly, Ling’Er was already looking at him.

Qin Yu was ready to apologize.

Faced with this unexpected eye contact, the Princess not only did not show any anger but rather responded with a sweet smile, her movement showcasing pure innocence and without the slightest hint of air.

”Sit!”

The Empress Dowager signaled for them to sit.

After Qin Yu bowed once more, he cautiously sat down.

Yet, looking at the Princess’s somewhat pale, somewhat sickly face, he hesitated for a moment, before asking, ”Empress Dowager, is the Princess not feeling well?”

”Alas, it’s due to her constitution.”

The Empress Dowager’s expression was complex, pulling Ling’Er to sit on the Cold Jade Bed, eyes full of affection.

Actually, the constitution of the Princess of the Great Yan Immortal Country is no secret.

For this, the Great Yan Royal Family even issued a reward notice that anyone who could solve, or even alleviate the Princess’s condition, would receive generous rewards.

However, years have passed, yet still nothing has been achieved.
