Feng Jingyu flew around Ling Chigu, and Ling Chigu’s gaze constantly followed him.
Yan Tianhen went to Lin Xuanzhi’s side. “Dage, have you developed a lightning-tempered body?”
Lin Xuanzhi nodded and clenched his fist. He felt much stronger than before. Suddenly, he smashed his fist towards a huge stone in the distance, and a loud rumble could be heard. The stone was instantly smashed to pieces.
Right now, the lightning strikes were circumventing Lin Xuanzhi and Ling Chigu, avoiding them as much as possible. After all, these lightning bolts bullied the weak and feared the strong. If lightning fell on Lin Xuanzhi now, every single strike would definitely be dispelled by Lin Xuanzhi.
Feng Jingyu was pleasantly surprised. “I didn’t expect that Ling Chigu could also refine a lightning-tempered body.”
Lin Xuanzhi nodded. “Little General Ling’s perseverance is extraordinary.”
Feng Jingyu nodded. “He’s a man who never shouts about bitterness or tiredness. Even if he’s injured, he’ll still grit his teeth and endure it. Otherwise, it’d be impossible for so many people in the military to willingly follow him when he was so young.”
Lin Xuanzhi said, “Just now, I collected some fragments from the disciples of Corpse Palace. I don’t know what they’re for, but we might as well leave here before doing research.”
Xia Xiaochan nodded. “It’s not suitable to stay here for a long time. I think these people were just bait to explore the situation. The people behind them will likely come soon when they find out that these people have died. I know a place where we can strengthen our physique. We might as well head there.”
Thus, Lin Xuanzhi and the others flew to another region on their swords.
Pa!
All of a sudden, a piece of jade in Old Corpse Ghost’s hand was broken into pieces. His complexion changed. Liang Tong, his disciple, came over and asked, “Master, what happened?”
“Mo Jianchi is dead,” answered Old Corpse Ghost.
Liang Tong was surprised. “Mo Jianchi himself is a corpse. Moreover, he has already reached the level of a Corpse Ghost, and he even can control a variety of corpse puppets. How could he be killed so easily?”
With a long face, Old Corpse Ghost clenched his fist and replied, “He must have met someone more powerful.”
Liang Tong frowned. “Who could it be?”
Old Corpse Ghost made a hand seal with his fingers pressed together. When nothing happened, he tried it again. “Fucking bastard! That person actually took away the essence of life!”
Liang Tong’s face also turned white. “The essence of life… should we track them?”

A month later, a topless Yan Tianhen came out of a lake.
The effects of this lake were similar to the lightning strikes. It could temper one’s body after soaking in it, but one needed a lot of patience to endure the pain it caused.
The water itself had Yin attributes, and when Yan Tianhen took a dip in it, there was not much discomfort, so he persevered for a whole month.
It was really convenient to have Xia Xiaochan as a guide. At least they never met any other person while sneaking into this secret place aside from that land of lightning strikes.
Moreover, Xia Xiaochan was very generous in telling Yan Tianhen the location of the body-tempering lake, which led to Yan Tianhen training his body almost masochistically every day.
When tempering one’s body, one couldn’t wear clothes, otherwise the effect would be greatly reduced.
So when Yan Tianhen came out, he was completely naked.
During this period of time, Feng Jingyu used his innate bloodline suppression to force Xia Xiaochan to find something for him to eat in the forest every day, while he watched Ling Chigu hunt in the forest to improve his cultivation. He didn’t often appear in front of Lin Xuanzhi nowadays.
At first glance, Lin Xuanzhi saw Yan Tianhen’s grand appearance coming towards him.
Crystal clear water slid down the skin on his chest, and when they fell to the ground, it was trampled by Yan Tianhen, creating one wet footprint after another. The teenager’s beautiful body made one feel that he looked delectable, as though he was full of endless temptation.
Yan Tianhen’s clothes were all in Lin Xuanzhi’s storage bag. Walking up to him, he blinked at Lin Xuanzhi. “Dage, where are the clothes?”
Lin Xuanzhi suddenly curled his lips to reveal a smile full of suggestive hints. He raised his hand and touched the beautiful and strong muscles on Yan Tianhen’s chest.
Yan Tianhen, “…”
He seemed to understand what Lin Xuanzhi wanted to do.
Yan Tianhen’s cheeks flushed. He raised his head and looked up at Lin Xuanzhi, who was slightly taller than him. Throat bobbing, he asked, “Dage, do you want to sleep with me?”
The originally very nice atmosphere dissipated by half from Yan Tianhen’s words. Lin Xuanzhi couldn’t help but laugh. “The word ‘sleep’ is too euphemistic and simple. I want to make love to you.”
Yan Tianhen giggled with a blushing face. He wrapped his hands around Lin Xuanzhi’s neck, and pecked softly at his ear. “Dage, in fact, I’ve been waiting for a long time.”
The flames in Lin Xuanzhi’s body quickly turned into a forest fire.
If someone told Lin Xuanzhi in advance that his first time with Yan Tianhen would also be their last time together in this lifetime, Lin Xuanzhi would surely have laughed and felt that the person was not right in the head.
If someone told Yan Tianhen the same thing, he would probably wave his fist and beat the person who tried to jinx them to the ground, knocking out all their teeth, for spitting around nonsense.
However, in reality, when the two people completely combined and the spiritual Qi in Yan Tianhen’s body circulated around, Yan Tianhen’s spiritual foundation gradually became extremely clear and thorough–
“Kill me…do a good deed, just love me this once… Kill me.”
“Yan Tianhen, I’ll only ask you once. Did you kill Leng Jixue?”
“My father is dead, he died because of you. I will never treat you as my Didi in this life. Leave.”
“I don’t even want to see you again in my next life.”
“Dage, let’s end it.”
The past events flashed through Yan Tianhen’s mind like a fleeting view of dreams surrounded by unknown incense smoke, as if they were paying homage to his ridiculous past, a past where he wanted to weep but had no tears to shed.
His surroundings were dark; his entire body was cold.
His brain was suddenly filled with countless pieces of memories, some happy, some difficult, some sad, some delightful.
But the vast majority of them were sorrowful and miserable.
There were also a few, unspeakable joys.
Through a cave entrance, Yan Tianhen looked at the distant mountains with their backs to the hazy fog and didn’t speak for a long time. He also did not move. His body had been draped by their torn clothes, and it was sticky wet underneath him.
The seal in his body had absorbed a lot of Lin Xuanzhi’s spiritual Qi through the sex, which forcefully broke half of the seal and almost ignited his other half’s demonic lineage.
However, Yan Tianhen did not feel a surge of strength. His heart was only full of desolation and exhaustion.
When they finished having sex, Yan Tianhen asked indifferently, “Why aren’t you together with Leng Jixue?”
In that instant, Lin Xuanzhi’s heart plummeted into an icy cave, and he knew that Yan Tianhen had already restored his past life’s memories.
Ever since his rebirth, he had been wondering what the trigger for Yan Tianhen to recover his memories would be. He once thought that it would be when they unlocked the seal in his body, or by the reappearance of the Revert World Mirror. He also speculated that the constant loop of the West Continent’s Great Demon-Sealing Array would trigger it……
But he never thought the trigger for Yan Tianhen instantly recovering his memories would be the union of their bodies, which stimulated Yan Tianhen’s furnace constitution.
Lin Xuanzhi stood up wrapped in his clothes. He looked at Yan Tianhen’s expressionless face with extremely complicated eyes. It took a long time before he could find his own voice.
“How much do you remember?”
After a while, Yan Tianhen turned his eyes and looked at Lin Xuanzhi. He gave him a smile that was a little bewitching with eyes half-narrowed. “Not too much, and not too little. Just enough for me to remember how I got into your bed and how I was betrayed by you.”
Lin Xuanzhi felt a pain in his heart, and even his breathing seemed to sting.
Yan Tianhen used the word “betrayed”.
In his previous life, he went to Sky Peak Sect and became Ren Bulin’s core disciple. In Sky Peak Sect, he was always treated as if he was the brilliant moon that all the stars twinkled around. At that time, there were no relatives around him, only Leng Jixue treated him sincerely, and there was Master Ren who paid attention to him and wasn’t stingy. That was why Lin Xuanzhi was naturally willing to do anything for Sky Peak Sect.
At that time, there was a seal picture hanging in Ren Bulin’s room. It looked enchanting and peculiar, like the red spider lily from hell, and it was even more gorgeous, which made Lin Xuanzhi unable to forget it.
When Yan Tianhen was in love, such a pattern would appear on his lower abdomen. The deeper the emotion he was feeling, the more gorgeous the flower would bloom, with the petals growing larger. Even the slender branches would extend to Yan Tianhen’s lower back.
Lin Xuanzhi once asked what this was when the relationship between the two of them was still slightly gentle, but Yan Tianhen lightly brushed over the matter. Lin Xuanzhi also didn’t care much. He thought he had no feelings for Yan Tianhen, so he didn’t want to care too much about him either.
Lin Xuanzhi never thought of telling people his bedroom matters, but he still said it later, even though he didn’t mean it.
At that time, he hated Yan Tianhen. He thought that Yan Tianhen had killed Leng Jixue, whom he’d regarded as his best friend. It just so happened that at that time, Yan Tianhen had been bewitched by someone and continuously killed several of Sky Peak Sect’s inner-door disciples, which caused hostility and pursuit from the righteous path.
Lin Xuanzhi’s heart was full of gloomy emotions during that period of time, which made him feel terrible. He couldn’t tell whether it was because of Yan Tianhen or because of Leng Jixue, but everyday, he mingled with Su Zixing and Shen Changgeng, who had deliberately approached him.
After a moment of drunkenness, he actually confided the secret of Yan Tianhen’s red spider lily seal image to Su Zixing and Shen Changgeng. The two then turned around and sold the news to Huangfu Jin. Huangfu Jin hated Yan Tianhen and spent a lot of money to buy this information. Of course, he definitely didn’t buy this information because he wanted to keep this a secret. He sold this to a peddler who specialized in disseminating information. Within a few days, the entire Five Continents knew Yan Tianhen’s new identity — that of a heavenly furnace constitution.
This was the most Yin-aligned constitution in the world, which had been extinct for tens of thousands of years in the cultivation world. However, according to secret records, this kind of human furnace could grant supreme benefits to a person if they mated even once, but the narrative was very vague, and it was unclear what the benefits were.

Sarah: THE FRIGGING BOMB THAT THIS CHAPTER DROPPED IM STILL SCREAMING first they have sex…….and then memories……and then the impending angst *//////* lmao i got a good batch of chapters this time XD
Ea: I’m jelly haha…but don’t worry! The angst this time doesn’t last long (within 5 chapters), and it’s nowhere near as bad as the earlier temper tantrum~ Just enjoy the angst XD
Zaki: *gets frustrated and goes to the corner to plant mushrooms*
Molly: Was not expecting that *Cries in a corner*
No No no they can’t fall out..I’ve been filled with anxiety whenever I thought of remembering past memories..Now it happens..I really want them sorted out their misunderstandings.I know ML was wrong…But I hope MC would forgive him😭
No worries they definitely will sort everything out! This story is a Happy Ending, and this particular angst won’t last long either
but it is said
their first and last time sooooooooo is it just about sex or about their love relationship too??? like will they become just like colleague who work for the same goal instead of lovers???
Yeah..writing like last time blah blah blah..it really made me stupefied..I couldn’t even read forward ..last night I was too worried and can’t even sleep😪 When I search in MTL I saw the tension between them ease a little after 5 -10 or so chapters..I’ma bit relieved now😅 I know they can’t part ways They only have each other..but still I’m worried..Last time when Ah Hen was jealous with Ling Xuan Zi and Didn’t talk or look at him..he was too stubborn..I thought this time would be worst..it better not..They have too many enemies now 😑
what i am worried about is the fact that even if the tension ease a lot it doesn t mean they will get back together like before 😵😵
Yes they will get back together romantically, as a couple
yeahhhhhh i was ready to abandon if they weren t
😅😅😅
HOW LONG ｡:ﾟ(;´∩`;)ﾟ:｡!!!!??!!
My God! Thanks for the chapter
..with all the problems that the world is facing now a days…here I am sitting in the corner, drawing circles and my only worry is whether that was their last sex in this lifetime…🤔
🤣🤣🤣🤧
That’s my #1 worry right now 😅😅😅
YTH should be a bit mean and make LXZ cry once or twice. i haven’t forgiven the guy despite how kind he is in this lifetime 🙂
honestly, i’m still so confused why YTH could actually fell in love with him?? even in this lifetime, he already liked the guy when he was still mean to YTH. he forgave so easily as well when LXZ suddenly became kind like wth??
if i was YTH, i’d just go find myself another man or go for a single life sighhh
and suddenly i’m ranting hhh
oh, and thanks for the great chapter!!
this ch was def a mix of emotions hahahah
Haha yes make LXZ work hard to be forgiven >:D
😂 That is completely valid and I wondered the same thing. The most probable reason is a big spoiler, all I can say is YTH’s soul probably subconsciously likes LXZ (will be revealed later in Nine Lands volume).
Let me guess… both of them we’re legendary, very OP lovers that have existed since the beginning of time that kept getting reincarnated but just forgot their memories 🤣🤣🤣
oOhohOOh!! What the what? This is totally believable! And I felt some teeny tiny relatable vibes in the Twin Moon City arc? We might be on to something here…..
Woah! Got so excited when they finally did it but then💣 boom💥 goes my heart (and brain). Everything happened so fast! I’ll be prepping my self for more heartbreak and tears.
Thank you for the chapter!!!
I am very surprised. My heart is in pain because both men are so lovely. YTH is inocent and ignorant. Only LZX is guilty for this situation. However, he tried to make happy YTH. Everything he did in this life was for YTH wellness.
I will believe in you that this sudden angst Will not last long, translator-nim. Well, I’m waiting for this moment to happen. Now I’m very excited
XD It’s good!!! The reconciliation ❤️
Wait wait wait, so they really only get to do it once? In 700 ch oml. Someone please say that that’s a lie
😂 That’s definitely a lie! They do it again somewhere before chapter 500
goes back to check current chapter number My heart wasn’t ready for the sudden angst~
Thanks translator-san 💕
As for Lin Xuanzhi… Well, he might have regretted and repented as a ghost for 1000 years, but in the end that’s just something he did on his own. He never apologized to YTH or asked for his forgiveness. He never asked what YTH wanted him to do to repent; or considered if YTH would even want anything to do with him once he remembered. A leopard can’t just change its spots, and neither can a slang man change his scummy nature so easily. Let him sleep on the proverbial couch for a good long while I say!!! A-Hen doesn’t owe him shit.
Still, the “last time they slept together in this lifetime” bit concerns me a lot. Like, a LOT.
I might want Lin Xuanzhi to suffer some rightful justice, like Tianwen did for a good long while after being unable to tell the true identity of his lover (moron. Just go be a hen-picked husband) but ultimately I want our main couple to be together and happy. Especially Yan Tianhen deserves nothing but happiness in this lifetime. So shape the hell up Lin Xuanzhi you slag!!!
You’re right, LXZ has always avoided thinking about how he’d treat Ah Hen with memories, so he certainly has a lot of apologizing and shaping up to do before he can get back in Ah Hen’s good graces.
That sentence…I think the author meant that sentence as kind of their thoughts in the moment, because it’s absolutely not true. Our main couple will have a happy ending and reconcile, and there will be many cute moments too 🥰 (but first LXZ will have to make up for being the scummiest slag)
😭😭
Holy. Moly. Nothing like taking that special long awaited first time and then just… I am so thankful for daily updates but dang it the weekend is coming.
Thanks for the great translation 😭♥️
I was wondering when YTH would regain his memory…well, LXZ is so fucked up now! Hope everything end well, but I can see drama coming
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Oh no. Please don’t… Poor YTH T^T
But… but…
IT’S JUST BEFORE THE WEEKEND!!! I NEED SWIFT RESOLUTION, NOT A TWO-DAYS PAUSE!!!
The gods of danmei are so cruel and hateful….
Ini … Ini di luar dugaan, aku kira bab ini sweet hingga akhir.. bagaimana mungkin akhirnya Ah hen keluarga ku 😭.. nggak mau galau.
Wait, so was the first and last time meant for the current timeline? So they finally did it, but it wasnt even a happy thing, and they will never entangle again?! I feel scammed
Nah, it’s definitely not the last time, even in the current timeline. This will be a happy ending so they’ll reconcile eventually 😊
The bomb was dropped.😱
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
What is up with this sudden angst??😭
Autor…. por qué… por qué…. por quéeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Yo acá… disfrutando de lo lindo… odiando al cangrejo de río y de pronto… me llevan a la desesperación…
pero Oh, aparece Traductora-sama y me lanza un salvavidas en esta tormenta,
Not prepared for the angst 😭
I DID NOT EXPECT THAT!!! and i thought i’ll now get the fluff i’ve been waiting for but dAng T^T
am i strong enough for the next chapters?
Nooooooo, they will sleep together in the future. Please no I can’t take it. He changed. OH MA GAD I can’t breathe. Yada, Nani it surely won’t be the last time and they will make up and live happily ever after😭
Been waiting for this for 450 chapters!!! Thank you for the great translation. ❤️❤️❤️ And thank you Ea❤️❤️❤️ I couldn’t bear long hatred between them.
This “first and last time” have the same flavor as the “He closed his eyes forever” of the gege of our little bamboo (inquiring inmortals little plant) when he supposedly died and then at the end of the chapter he was alive once again lmao hahaha
However thanks for the clarification I was worried this angsty may be longer than the temper tantrum of before ;-;
LXZ🎶 on break my heart say you’ll love me again!!!!!!!🎶
Ah hen 🎶undo this hurt that you caused when you walk out the door!!!!!!!! Un cry these tears I cried so many nights. Un break my heartttttt!🎶
LXZ🎶take back that sad word goodbye 🎶
Bruh first and last in this lifetime?!? Author must be joking
I didn’t even get to read the details of the sex scene but this bomb is dropped. Wow . I wanted the deets.
Author is really cruel
AHHHHH oh my goodness. The last time they have sex in this lifetimeee????
If someone told Lin Xuanzhi in advance that his first time with Yan Tianhen would also be their last time together in this lifetime, Lin Xuanzhi would surely have laughed and felt that the person was not right in the head.
Holy moly!!!! Is the last time of papapapa! Or the last time they travelled together?! I… I don’t want Henhen to remember it himself…… I just want him to be told 😢. Aishh, why is it their first time that evoked that bitter memories. sigh
Noooo
I thought LZX could happily eat tofu after 400+ chapters
But noooo
The author just the drop the bomb like that
WHT NO NOT LIKE THIS
Well… that escalated
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LXZ YOU SON OF A HOT DILF AHHHHHHHH YOU BITCH BYE IM GONNA CRY
Finally he knows, I actually was feeling like YTH is in love with LXZ without knowing him yet so it’s better in this way.
Oh no.. I was reading enjoying the 1st part and then.. It all came crushing down. I actually started feeling sick from worry. And what 1st and last time.. That line was just too much.
They make love only that one time does that mean they’re going to die before they do it again😭😭💔💔 my heart hurts I was so happy at the beginning of the ch
This reminds me of Buffy and Angel that plot twist in season 2 right after their first time 😤😭 I cried a lot then too 😂
I’ve always wanted YTH to remember the past… but not in this way waaaaaaaaa 😭
wtf… just happened….
