Chapter 455: Xiao Wu Matures Instantly, Lin Qingmo Deeply Experiences the Wei Wu Style

That night.

Moonlight squeezed through the cracks of the bamboo window, scattering a layer of broken silver across the floor.

The sea breeze, carrying a damp and salty scent, seeped through the window cracks into the room, causing the flame of the oil lamp on the table to flicker several times.

Lin Qingmo had just finished his meditation.

A lingering warmth from the circulation of spirit power still remained within his Meridians.

He stretched his neck a few times and was about to lie down.

"Knock, knock!"

The sound of knocking was so soft it seemed intentional, with a brief pause in the middle.

Who would it be at this hour?

His master, Sister Donghuang?

The daring Teacher Erlong?

He pulled open the door.

Only to see Xiao Wu, the one most prone to shyness in his heart.

Xiao Wu stood under the corridor, having changed into a thin, pale pink shirt.

Her long hair wasn’t tied up, instead draping lazily over her shoulders.

The moonlight plated her entire being with a silver edge, making her already lively face appear even more fair.

"A-Qing, I... can I come in?"

Lin Qingmo smiled faintly. "It’s not the first time you’ve entered my room. Come in."

Xiao Wu slipped into the room and closed the door behind her in one fluid motion.

This level of proficiency was truly hard to comment on.

She sat down on the edge of the bed.

Her hands unconsciously twisted the hem of her clothes, her ten fingers fidgeting about; it was clear she had something on her mind.

Lin Qingmo sat down beside her, maintaining an extremely close distance.

"What’s wrong?"

"I want to... thank you properly."

Xiao Wu said with her head lowered, her voice muffled.

The flush on the tips of her ears was particularly conspicuous under the moonlight.

"It’s about that 90,000-year Spirit Bone."

"What is there to thank me for?"

"Of course I have to thank you!"

Xiao Wu blurted out, as if afraid she wouldn’t have the courage if she didn’t speak now.

She suddenly looked up, her almond eyes swirling with something even she couldn’t explain.

"I want to show you the Spirit Bone Skill I obtained after the Spirit BoneFusion."

Lin Qingmo raised an eyebrow.

Spirit Bone Skill?

To be honest, he was indeed a bit curious about the Spirit Bone Skill from the 90,000-year Soft Bones RabbitSpirit Bone.

But why choose the middle of the night specifically?

"What kind of Spirit Bone Skill?" Lin Qingmo asked, not wanting to spoil the mood.

Xiao Wu didn’t answer directly.

She stood up and took two steps back.

She stood still right in the center of the moonlight streaming through the window, facing Lin Qingmo.

She took a deep breath.

A golden glow lit up from the center of her forehead,

spreading along her brow, cheeks, and neck, enveloping her entire body in an instant.

In the next moment, the transformation began.

Xiao Wu’s figure slowly rose within the golden light, growing several inches taller.

That change wasn’t just a stretching of bones, but a reshaping of her entire temperament.

The originally youthful and innocent silhouette of a girl was being replaced inch by inch by something more abundant and full,

her slender waist remained slender,

but the curves above and below the waistline were unfolding in a way that was visually striking.

The places where the thin shirt was originally loose suddenly tightened,

the fabric clinging tightly to her new silhouette, outlining curves that Lin Qingmo couldn’t look away from.

And the places that were already snug were now tight to a nearly dangerous degree.

The transformation of Xiao Wu’s facial features was even more astonishing.

Her lively and sweet youthful face gradually faded, replaced by a charming and deep mature face.

A layer of composed charm that seemed to have seen the world appeared between her brows, and the curve of her lips became fuller.

Even her eyelashes became a bit thicker!

That feeling was no longer that of a young girl.

But rather a woman who was fully ripened to the core.

Every curve of her body was just right, carrying a soul-capturing, defenseless, and completely natural wife-like aura.

The golden light dissipated.

The "matured" Xiao Wu stood in the silver-white moonlight, her thick long lashes fluttering slightly.

She seemed not yet accustomed to this brand-new body.

With her head slightly lowered, her breathing was a bit heavier than usual.

Then, she slowly raised her eyes.

"A-Qing... will you like me like this?"

Her gaze landed squarely on Lin Qingmo’s face.

Her voice was half a tone lower than usual, carrying a trace of charm she couldn’t entirely suppress and a cautious expectation hidden beneath it.

"Hiss!!!"

Lin Qingmo’s brain stalled.

Completely and utterly stalled.

His gaze started from that unfamiliar yet familiar face, slid down her jawline, passed her collarbone, and followed that incredibly curved silhouette all the way down... and then all the way back up.

Finally, it fixed on those eyes that were filled with charm and trepidation.

He unconsciously stood up.

How could he not understand the meaning behind Xiao Wu’s posture?

A dangerous curve slowly curled at the corner of his lips.

He took a step forward, and the distance between them quickly vanished.

"As for whether I like it or not, I’ll have to try it to find out."

...

Moonlight poured in from the bamboo window, casting two entangled shadows upon the wall.

The sea breeze blew through the room, making the window frames creak.

That oil lamp, which had been flickering unsteadily, never went out once that night.

...

The next morning.

Sunlight lazily crawled onto the windowsill.

The moist scent left behind by last night’s sea breeze still lingered in the air.

Xiao Wu had already returned to her youthful form.

She was curled up in Lin Qingmo’s arms, her head resting on the crook of his arm.

Her long hair was messily spread over half the pillow, with a few stray strands sticking to her slightly flushed cheeks.

Having not slept all night, Xiao Wu was also somewhat drowsy.

"Gigantification... has two modes."

Her voice was soft, carrying that lazy nasal tone unique to someone who had just woken up.

As she spoke, she absentmindedly drew circles on Lin Qingmo’s chest with her fingertips.

"One is the ’Maturization’ like last night, which provides a balanced boost to all attributes and lasts for a relatively long time."

Then her fingertip drew a large circle.

"The other is ’Enlargement,’ where the body becomes several times larger, and strength and defense increase even more, but the duration is short and it consumes a lot."

"Both bring about physical changes; one makes me mature, the other makes me giant."

Lin Qingmo rested one hand behind his head, and after hearing this explanation, his heart was filled with emotion.

What a good Spirit Ability.

It was truly a great Spirit Ability.

The transformation in temperament of the matured Xiao Wu wasn’t just a boost; it was an accelerator for men!

With a full wife-like aura, its lethality was maxed out.

She looked exactly like how Xiao Wu appeared as Tang San’s wife in the God Realm in the original work.

He had thoroughly experienced the Wei Wu Style and the depths of the Tongque Spring last night.

Even Cao Cao would have called him an expert.

"That... A-Qing..."

Xiao Wu’s voice suddenly dropped another few degrees, and her finger stopped drawing circles.

Lin Qingmo looked down, and boy, her face was red from her cheeks to her ears, and even her neck was starting to turn pink.

"When I’m in the Maturization state, are you... more than usual?"

"Cough."

Lin Qingmo decisively cut off this topic that was about to enter dangerous territory.

"I think both forms are very good. Next time we can try the effect of Enlargement in actual combat."

"You’re changing the subject!"

"I’m doing a tactical analysis."

Xiao Wu huffed and punched him in the chest.

The force was as light as a cat’s paw swipe.

Lin Qingmo looked down at the flushed, pouting face in his arms, the smile at the corner of his mouth impossible to suppress.

But speaking seriously.

From a tactical perspective, Maturization was indeed the form more suitable for Xiao Wu’s daily use.

Her core combat style leaned towards flexibility.

A boost to all attributes in actual combat was a qualitative leap.

Especially the improvement in speed and mental force, which could greatly compensate for the gap in raw strength when facing high-level Spirit Masters.

As for Enlargement, it was more suitable as a trump card to turn the tide.

Whipping it out at a critical moment would definitely have an explosive effect.

"Xiao Wu."

"Hmm?"

"The road of the Seagod Nine Trials is still very long."

Lin Qingmo set aside all joking and looked seriously into her eyes.

"The trials that follow will only get harder round after round. You must be prepared."

Xiao Wu sat up from his arms.

Her long hair slid from her shoulders, and the sunlight plated her profile with a layer of warm golden light.

The lazy and clingy little woman was gone.

Sitting there was a lively yet stubborn young girl.

"Don’t worry, A-Qing."

She clenched her fists, her almond eyes bright and dazzling.

"For you, for us, I won’t lose."

Lin Qingmo felt very gratified and reached out to rub her head.

The strands of hair slid through his fingers, carrying the faint lingering body heat from last night.

"Let’s go."

He flipped out of bed and tilted his chin toward the door.

"Now that the pleasure is over, it’s time to Cultivate."

"Yeah!"
