Chapter 1274 - 1274 Untitled

Yu Huang was a cultivator, so logically speaking, she shouldn’t feel cold.
Sheng Xiao was worried that there was something wrong with Yu Huang’s body, so despite seeing that Yu Huang was exhausted, he woke her up. “Wake up.” After Sheng Xiao called out to Yu Huang a few times, Yu Huang moaned a few times but fell asleep quickly.
Sheng Xiao had no choice but to kiss Yu Huang to prevent her from breathing.
About a minute later, Yu Huang felt suffocated, so she opened her eyes and push Sheng Xiao away. “Brother Xiao, what are you doing?!” Yu Huang sat up and took a few deep breaths. Then, she covered herself with the blanket.
Sheng Xiao frowned and asked with concern, “Are you feeling unwell? You’re so cold.”
“I’m not feeling well,” Yu Huang said. “I feel as if there’s ice hidden in my body. Even my bones feel cold.” Yu Huang rubbed her arms and asked Sheng Xiao, “What temperature is it now?”
Sheng Xiao opened the computer terminal and said, “25 degrees.”
Yu Huang raised her eyebrows. “25 degrees? It’s not that cold.” Back then, in the Doomsday Battlefield, even when the temperature was extremely cold, her body didn’t feel as cold as it did now.
“I broke through to the Grand Master level today.” Yu Huang told Sheng Xiao what happened today. Then, she muttered to herself, “Could it be that after I refined five drops of heart blood and fought the lightning tribulation, I exhausted my body so much that I became afraid of the cold?”
After Yu Huang went into her blanket again and took off her clothes, she hooked her index finger at Sheng Xiao and said with a smile, “Brother Xiao, come and warm me up with your body.”
Sheng Xiao raised his eyebrows. This was indeed a good way to warm her up. Thus, he lifted the blanket and got in.
With Sheng Xiao’s warmth, Yu Huang quickly started sweating.
After sweating, she felt very tired, so she fell asleep in Sheng Xiao’s arms. That night, they didn’t even take a shower.
The next morning, Sheng Xiao woke up early. After he washed up, he left a note for Yu Huang and went to the teaching area with Ye Qingyang and Feng Yuncheng to learn from the dean. Recently, the dean had brought the three of them to the desolate place to fight with the unicorns. They left early and returned late at night covered in injuries every day.
Sheng Xiao didn’t even have the chance to talk to Yu Huang.
Yu Huang slept until late in the morning. When she woke up, she felt very fatigued. Her shoulders and thighs felt so sore that it was like they had been stepped on a few times. She took a bath before finally feeling refreshed.
After changing her clothes, Yu Huang changed the dirty bedsheets and sent them to the laundry room. Just as she stuffed them into the washing machine, she heard Professor Song’s shout outside the room. “Yu Huang, are you there?”
Yu Huang hurriedly put on her slippers and ran out to open the door.
“Professor.” Yu Huang invited Professor Song into the room.
Professor Song sat on the sofa and said, “I’m hungry. Have you eaten? If you haven’t, let’s eat together.”
Yu Huang was also hungry.
“Wait a moment, I’ll go cook.”
It had been many years since Yu Huang had personally cooked.
The fridge was filled with ingredients. There was demon beast meat, as well as various spiritual energy vegetables and fruits. Yu Huang followed the cooking methods of the Earth’s modern era and braised a plate of demon beast meat. Then, she stir-fried two vegetable dishes and washed some fruits before bringing them to the table. Then, she called Professor Song over to eat.
Professor Song ate very quickly.
Seeing that half of the plate of demon beast meat was gone, Yu Huang didn’t dare to speak anymore and hurriedly picked up three pieces of meat with her chopsticks.
When Professor Song saw her actions, he sneered. “What about the tradition of treating the underprivileged with kindness and respecting your teachers?”
Yu Huang smiled sweetly and said, “That’s true, I’m young and I’m your student, so it’s only right for you to respect me and treat me with kindness.”
Professor Song was speechless.
The teacher and student started snatching food on the table. Soon, everything on the table was swept away.
After the meal, Professor Song patted his stomach and lamented, “It’s not bad to live in a villa. Later, I’ll get Taixu to buy me a villa with a big fridge and stock up on all kinds of ingredients.” Professor Song had been hungry for as long as Yu Huang had been in seclusion.
The pot in his room was broken and the rice was gone, so he had been relying on fasting pills to survive.
Thus, when he realized that Yu Huang had returned, Professor Song eagerly waited for her to feed him.
After Yu Huang threw the plate into the dishwasher, she suddenly heard Professor Song ask, “The weather is so hot, so why are you wearing so much?”
Yu Huang was wearing a dark green negligee dress and a white knitted jacket on her upper body and her hair was draped behind her shoulders. She was dressed for autumn. After Yu Huang washed her hands, she turned around to sit at the dining table and asked Professor Song with a worried expression, “Professor, you’re knowledgeable, so take a look at my situation. Could it be that I was injured by the lightning tribulation and I’m suffering sequelae?”
Yu Huang told Professor Song about her fear of the cold.
Logically speaking, cultivators shouldn’t feel cold in 25 degrees Celsius weather. After knowing that Yu Huang actually felt a chill all over her body, Professor Song became serious and asked Yu Huang, “When did the symptoms start?”
Yu Huang said, “Last night.”
“You weren’t afraid of the cold in the past?”
“My beast form is the Divine Feather Phoenix, so it’s my nature to love the warm sun. I’ve never been afraid of the cold.” In the past, Sheng Xiao had to wear a sweater and a windbreaker during winters, but Yu Huang could resist the cold with just a shirt and a jacket.
This was the first time she felt afraid of the cold.
Professor Song thought about it and said hesitantly, “I’ve never heard of people feeling cold after a lightning tribulation. Besides, you dispersed the remaining two lightning tribulations yesterday, so your body shouldn’t have been attacked by the lightning tribulation. Even if your spiritual energy is exhausted and your body is weak, you will only feel sleepy and tired. You shouldn’t be afraid of the cold.”
Professor Song didn’t dare to underestimate this matter, so he said to Yu Huang, “Go to the medical building and take a look. The top Healers on the entire continent are all in our inner academy.”
“Alright, I’ll go.”
Professor Song nodded and said, “If there’s no problem, you can cultivate divination with me tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
The medical building was built in the teaching area and was adjacent to the administrative building’s library. Usually, when cultivators were seriously injured in the training area, as long as they pressed the distress bell, the medical building would send people to the training area to give them emergency treatment. The medical building had a time and space tunnel that led straight to the training area.
