Xuanhuan: The Empress and I Swapped Bodies - Chapter 162
The Divine Dragon Empress’s words left Ye Wushuang stunned as well.
He hadn’t expected such a situation to arise.
“Really can’t execute it?”
“Truly can’t! I don’t even know how to channel my spiritual energy anymore!”
“Then… then shall I assist you, Your Majesty?”
“Yes, please, help me quickly!”
The Divine Dragon Empress didn’t know what was happening either. She only knew that she seemed unable to unleash her power.
This feeling was undoubtedly very unpleasant.
Now that Ye Wushuang was willing to help her, it was entirely a joyous occasion for her.
So, she stood in place, waiting for Ye Wushuang’s guidance.
After Ye Wushuang approached, he carefully observed the Empress.
He found nothing wrong with her. Her spiritual power was stable, and her sword intent was complete.
It was just that she seemed not to know how to fuse this stable spiritual power with her complete sword intent, which was why she stood there frozen.
Realizing this, Ye Wushuang was also a bit bewildered.
He didn’t have much teaching experience, and this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
So, even he lacked certain experience.
He could only resort to asking the Empress directly:
“Your Majesty, this… can you really not guide your spiritual energy and sword intent together?”
“I… I can’t do it!”
The Divine Dragon Empress was also very troubled at this moment. Her brain had long since understood everything, but her body simply wouldn’t cooperate.
In a sense, she lacked practical experience with the sword technique!
After observing for a while longer, Ye Wushuang spoke up:
“Your Majesty, how about I guide your spiritual energy and sword intent instead? Then, you can follow my guidance to execute Myriad Swords Return to Origin!”
“Alright, then you guide me!”
Regarding the idea of guidance, the Empress saw nothing wrong with it.
But when it came time for the actual guidance, the Empress found their posture a bit strange.
Ye Wushuang actually reached out from behind her, took hold of her hand, and began attempting to guide the spiritual energy and sword intent within her body.
This posture greatly resembled Ye Wushuang embracing her from behind.
In an instant, the Empress’s ears turned red.
Two breaths later, her neck was flushed.
Since gaining consciousness, she had never been in such an intimate posture with a man.
This posture was far too embarrassing.
So much so that the Empress became a bit unsteady on her feet and leaned against Ye Wushuang.
As she leaned against him, everything below the Empress’s neck turned red.
She felt somewhat abnormal, her entire body burning up.
Ye Wushuang also sensed something amiss; he felt the Empress had become different from usual.
The current Empress seemed more captivating than before.
Looking at the Empress leaning against him, Ye Wushuang thought her body felt incredibly soft and pliant—a softness he had never felt before, not even when they had swapped bodies.
This held a particular allure for Ye Wushuang.
It made him involuntarily recall a line from a poem.
It also made him try his best to suppress his own peculiar sensations.
However, the Empress still noticed something different and began to fidget uneasily.
Fortunately, at this moment, Ye Wushuang had already started guiding the Empress’s spiritual energy and sword intent.
“Your Majesty, follow the flow of my spiritual energy. Connect your own spiritual energy with your sword intent.”
“Mhm! Okay!”
Hearing Ye Wushuang’s words, the Empress blocked out external distractions and focused wholeheartedly on perceiving her own spiritual energy and sword intent.
Soon, her spiritual energy and sword intent directly linked together.
The Empress even subconsciously shouted out at this moment:
“Myriad! Swords! Return! To! Origin!!”
In an instant, the ten thousand sword intents within her body were stirred.
Ye Wushuang’s palace was completely filled with sword intent.
These sword intents were restless, as if ready to erupt at any moment.
Had they erupted, Ye Wushuang’s palace would surely have shattered instantly.
Fortunately, the Empress had only drawn out Myriad Swords Return to Origin, not detonated it.
Thus, they were merely intimidating in their display.
This intimidating display, however, delighted the Empress.
“I succeeded! I succeeded!!”
In her joy, the Empress inadvertently pressed against Ye Wushuang a couple more times, nearly causing him to lose his composure.
“Ahem! Your Majesty, since you’ve mastered it, please try again on your own. See if you can execute Myriad Swords Return to Origin without my guidance!”
“Yes! Yes!”
At this moment, the Empress’s mind was more occupied with Myriad Swords Return to Origin.
So, she didn’t dwell on what had just happened, instead focusing entirely on activating her Myriad Swords Return to Origin.
Soon, she successfully activated her Myriad Swords Return to Origin once more.
This time, it was entirely her own accomplishment, without any external assistance.
This also meant that the Empress had truly mastered her own Myriad Swords Return to Origin.
This made the smile on the Empress’s face even brighter, her whole demeanor more radiant.
It must be said, the Empress like this was truly captivating.
Even though Ye Wushuang understood the Empress intimately, he couldn’t help but be drawn to her.
Unfortunately, the Empress at this moment was still unaware of her own allure.
She glanced back at Ye Wushuang with a smile that instantly pierced his heart, throwing him into slight disarray.
Quickly, Ye Wushuang changed the subject.
“Well, within Myriad Swords Return to Origin, there’s another sword technique evolution. That is, fusing all the sword intents into one to execute One Sword Cleaves the Heavens!”
“One Sword Cleaves the Heavens? This… is it difficult?”
“Not difficult, not difficult at all. It’s just an evolution of Myriad Swords Return to Origin. Learning it is very simple!”
“Then I ask you, Fellow Daoist, to teach me!”
Hearing it wasn’t difficult, the Empress’s heart was immediately stirred.
By now, she had already felt the power of Myriad Swords Return to Origin. She even sensed there was room for further improvement.
Under such circumstances, if she mastered One Sword Cleaves the Heavens, her combat power would surely skyrocket.
Therefore, after Ye Wushuang mentioned this, the Empress eagerly hoped he would teach her.
And since Ye Wushuang had brought it up, he naturally intended to teach the Empress.
Thus, when the Empress asked for instruction, Ye Wushuang also began teaching One Sword Cleaves the Heavens to the Empress with his full attention.
When necessary, Ye Wushuang even held the Empress’s hand, teaching her hand-in-hand.
This feeling was completely different from ordinary instruction.
Both the teacher and the student were prone to becoming addicted to it.
