Endless Tenderness

Ten years had spun by like a fleeting cloud in the secluded training room of Yun Lintian and Long Qingxuan. The air itself hummed with subtle energy, a testament to their relentless pursuit of dual cultivation.

Yun Lintian sat cross-legged, guiding the flow of spiritual energy through his profound vein. A sudden warmth, unlike anything he'd ever experienced before, bloomed in his Divine Core. His eyes snapped open, a jolt of surprise coursing through him.

Sitting across from him, Long Qingxuan promptly opened her eyes, revealing pools of cerulean that shimmered with newfound vibrancy.

"Our bloodlines," Long Qingxuan breathed her voice barely a whisper. "They've grown stronger again."

Yun Lintian nodded, a slow smile spreading across his face. A decade of their combined cultivation techniques, forged in the crucible of their love, had finally unlocked a new threshold within them.
