Chapter 5: Moonlit Duel of Beauties for a Shared Bed — Fusion of Ice and Fire Awakens the Spirit Platform

At the third quarter of midnight, bamboo shadows danced on the windowpane.

Lin Xuan sat cross-legged on a jade bed, the golden-red patterns of the Sunfire Incantation flowing beneath his skin, making his chiseled waist and abdomen look like a blazing furnace. As the Nine Yang True Qi circulated, beads of sweat traced down his defined eight-pack, glistening like honey in the moonlight. His damp moon-white silk pants clung tightly to his hip bones, outlining a breathtakingly masculine silhouette.

"Whoosh—"

Suddenly, the bamboo leaves rustled without wind. A trace of icy fragrance drifted through the window. Lin Xuan's Golden Crow pupils flared with light as Yun Qingyue appeared, barefoot under the moon, her white gauze robes billowing in the night breeze. Her long jade legs peeked through twin layers of silk—the outer adorned with silver ephemerals, the inner nearly transparent. As she walked, her hips swayed like ripples in water, the fabric tied at the pelvis with a delicate butterfly knot—one gentle tug, and spring would burst forth.

"Ex-husband studying your technique by moonlight? Isn't that lonely?" Yun Qingyue leaned on the doorframe, teasing a silk sash at her waist with slender fingers. Her robes opened slightly, revealing a peony tattoo below her collarbone—the blossom trembled subtly with her breath, drawing the eye like a magnet.

Lin Xuan's throat bobbed. His Nine Yang Battle Body roared to life on instinct. This seductress was clearly dressed to kill tonight—hair loosely pinned with a golden hairpiece, stray strands brushing her porcelain neck, lips glossed with luminous rouge, even her toenails painted to match the peony hue.

"The saintess graces me with her presence—here to test my progress?" He casually tossed the Sunfire Incantation aside, revealing a page with explicit diagrams of dual cultivation.

Yun Qingyue stepped forward, the hem of her robe sweeping across Lin Xuan's knee. "Heard someone got their hands on Miss Su's undergarment today..." Her bare foot suddenly pressed against his inner thigh. "I came to see if your mighty Yang body can handle such… nourishment."

"Hiss—" Lin Xuan inhaled sharply. That jade foot was clad in gold mesh stockings! The fine lattice hugged her snowy flesh, peony-colored polish gleaming between the threads. When she arched her foot, the silver anklet chimed in harmony with the wind chimes at the window.

Then suddenly—snap—his waistband loosened, undone by her toes! Lin Xuan caught her ankle, her skin icy to the touch, yet his dantian surged with heat.

"Such eagerness, Saintess—are you trying to inspect the goods ahead of time?"

"Inspect?" Yun Qingyue leaned in, her robe gaping open, the peony tattoo nearly touching his nose. "I'm here to teach you…" Her lips brushed his ear, "…how to melt the millennium-old frost of the Biluoyi Medical Palace with this Sunfire."

"BANG!"

The bamboo door burst open. Su Li stumbled in, soaked in cold sweat, her thin nightgown clinging to her graceful curves. A glowing ice-lotus birthmark flickered on her chest, casting the gauze nearly transparent—her snow peaks clearly outlined, tips adorned with crystalline frost.

"Lin Xuan... help me..." Her lips were pale, hair damp with dew, ankles trembling with the jingle of bells. Spotting Yun Qingyue atop him, her eyes blazed with frostfire. "Shameless!"

"When you scold, Miss Su…" Yun Qingyue toyed with a strand of Lin Xuan's hair, "I suppose your Dantian frost is about to pierce the Heartgate?" She suddenly yanked open Su Li's collar—the frost mark had begun spreading. "Wait another incense stick's time, and it'll bloom right up your neck."

Lin Xuan's pupils shrank. With his Golden Crow Sight, he saw a serpent-like frost winding through Su Li's meridians. The lotus at her heart turned ominously, and with each spin, her chastity mark dimmed—a clear sign of her Ice Phoenix Physique backlashing!

"Hug me..." Su Li collapsed into Lin Xuan's arms, her cool scent mixed with medicine as soaked silk pressed against his chest. Melting frost trickled down his abs.

Yun Qingyue chuckled, stripping off her gauze robe—leaving only a sheer peony bra that barely covered her curves. "Will you save the freezing medicine fairy first..." She straddled his hips, heel pressing into his tailbone, "...or feed the craving Saintess?"

[Warning! Ice Phoenix Physique is about to lose control!][Dual cultivation guidance required: simultaneous contact at Yutang and Huiyin acupoints][Recommended posture: Ice-Fire Wave Fusion — +50% Qi harmonization]

Clenching his jaw, Lin Xuan pulled Su Li close, palm pressing her back's Yutang point. The girl whimpered like a kitten as the frost mark flared, encasing all three in a glowing barrier.

"Riiip—"

Su Li's nightgown tore open, frost flowers forming along her collarbone. As Lin Xuan reached for her bra's knot, she grabbed his wrist, pressing it to her chest. "It... hurts... here…"

The softness beneath his palm made his Nine Yang Qi explode. Instinctively, his other hand clutched Yun Qingyue's waist. She giggled, tearing open his robes, trailing her lacquered toes down his abs. "This body... is even better sculpted than the diagrams…"

"Don't... touch there!" Su Li suddenly gasped. Yun Qingyue's toes were now teasing somewhere very, very sensitive. Caught between ice and fire, Lin Xuan's battle body auto-triggered a dual-cultivation formation!

"BOOM!"

Three streams of Qi wove into a Taiji diagram. Su Li's Ice Lotus burst with blue light, Yun Qingyue's peony mark bloomed crimson mist, Lin Xuan's Sunfire surged golden. As their energies collided, Su Li's ice-silkworm bra flew off, Yun Qingyue's gold mesh stockings snapped apart!

"Ahh…" Su Li moaned, legs wrapping around Lin Xuan. Her frost-lotus resonated with his Sunfire. Yun Qingyue seized the moment, stripping his last defenses. Her jade fingers grasped the rising dragon. "Let big sister teach you how to ride this... ugh!"

Before she could finish, Lin Xuan flipped them both into the pillows. Frost and flame marks intertwined beneath him. He channeled Yang Qi into the saintess' snowy peaks, while tracing runes between the healer's legs. Both girls shuddered. Silver ankle bells rang like a storm, golden hairpins fell to cloud-white buttocks, leaving red prints in their wake.

"S-slower..." Su Li whimpered, biting her finger as her blue hair tangled with Yun Qingyue's. Lin Xuan bit her earlobe, passing Qi with his tongue. "You didn't ask for slow last night, did you?"

Yun Qingyue suddenly seized his face for a kiss, stealing the Ice Lotus Qi from his lips. "You heartless rogue... using my virgin Yin to seduce others..." Her hips twisted hard, locking them all in an impossible fusion.

[Posture Achieved: Ice-Fire Wave Fusion][Su Li's Ice Phoenix Physique awakened 10%][Yun Qingyue obtained Nine Yang Essence, broke through Nascent Soul bottleneck!][Host's cultivation raised to Foundation Stage Great Perfection!]

As the first light of dawn pierced the window, Su Li slumbered in Lin Xuan's embrace. Her frost mark had retreated below her navel. Yun Qingyue lounged beside him, tracing circles on his chest. "That Golden Crow blood... it's not just for dual cultivation, you know~" She suddenly bit his throat. "Use my Yin for others again…"

"I'll drain your Dantian dry." She licked away the blood, snatched her ruined peony bra with a toe, and sashayed off.

Lin Xuan glanced at Su Li's sleeping face—then noticed something in his palm. The girl had slipped him a jade slip: The Nine-Reincarnation Needle… and his system was going haywire:

[Su Li Affection +30 (Current: 58)][Acquired "Tear of the Ice Phoenix" — Freeze Time for 3 Breaths][Yun Qingyue: Love Parasite Planted — Requires Dual Cultivation 3x Monthly]

Suddenly, a faint noise on the rooftop. Lin Xuan activated Golden Crow Sight—there! A shadow crushed a message talisman—

A dark agent under the Third Prince!
