After a moment of silence, Wang Mu made his move.

He slightly lifted the hem of her skirt, but instead of untying it on either side, he pushed it upward, revealing her ankles.

He removed her shoes and undid her silk stockings.

Her toes were delicate as jade, appearing in his vision like plump lotus shoots.

The vivid, blood-red toenails, shining with an unearthly light, reflected Wang Mu's silent face. The faint blue veins on the top of her foot added a touch of delicate beauty to these indescribably slender feet.

However, only Wang Mu knew that a kick from these jade feet could probably kill him.

They looked beautiful, yet contained terrifying power, an unimaginable presence.

"…" Wang Mu.

"You just lift it like that?" Mu Hongyuan said calmly. "Such a beautiful dress—to only uncover a corner, isn't that a pity?"

"It's enough for washing feet," Wang Mu replied.

Mu Hongyuan remained silent, simply watching.

Wang Mu channeled Mixed Element Energy with both hands, slowly bestowing it upon her feet.

Instantly, Wang Mu's body trembled. He vaguely sensed a strong attractive force continuously emanating from one of the jade feet.

Mixed Element Energy. Mu Hongyuan, with her Yin Yang Mixed Element Body, was suffused with Mixed Element Energy all over, just as when he had massaged her shoulders previously.

In reality, by applying his own Mixed Element Energy to the surface of her body, he wasn't actually touching her skin—a truly marvelous process.

If one were to describe it, it should be called: external Dual Cultivation.

It was a process where both individuals used only their Mixed Element Energy to interact. Through this exchange, the Mixed Element Energy of both parties would gradually strengthen and harmonize.

The Mixed Element Energy from Mu Hongyuan, much like her persona, was filled with an assertive presence.

If he were to attempt physical contact, he wouldn't even be able to touch the surface of her skin; he would be instantly injured by her Constitution, which was suffused with Mixed Element Energy.

That was why, during the previous massage, Wang Mu hadn't felt much; he hadn't actually touched her shoulders.

It was the same now.

However, this time, Mu Hongyuan's Mixed Element Energy was significantly more harmonious.

It was somewhat more relaxed compared to when he had massaged her shoulders. With Qi Fortune circulating in his palms, Wang Mu cautiously placed her feet into the basin. The Mixed Element Energy from his palms flowed with the water, continuously washing over her soles and insteps.

"How does it feel?" Wang Mu asked.

"Not bad," Mu Hongyuan lazily smiled, her outer robe slipping slightly from her shoulders, revealing her snowy skin. "Your skills have improved a lot."

Wang Mu remained silent, sensing the Mixed Element Energy transmitting from Mu Hongyuan's toes. He suddenly looked up at Mu Hongyuan, then lowered his head again.

As their Mixed Element Energies continuously circulated and interacted, Wang Mu became increasingly proficient in its application. He closed his eyes and immersed himself in the process.

After a long while, Mu Hongyuan's face flushed slightly, and she said with a smile, "Brother Mu, you're being naughty."

Wang Mu opened his eyes and realized his hands had unknowingly moved up to her calves.

Even the hem of her skirt had been lifted to near her knees without his awareness.

Wang Mu released her feet and noticed they now emitted a gem-like luster. This was especially true for her bright red toenails, which seemed to have been nourished by a spell of 'cloud and rain,' reflecting a brilliant sheen.

Wang Mu, looking thoughtful, channeled a strand of True Yang Star Flame with his hands, evaporated the water droplets, and said, "So, is the washing done?"

Mu Hongyuan snorted lightly, her expression authoritative as she said, "You're dismissing me just like that? It's not enough. Massage the soles of my feet a bit more."

How can I possibly massage these feet? Wang Mu wondered. What he had called 'washing' was, in reality, just an exchange of his Mixed Element Energy with the Mixed Element Energy in Mu Hongyuan's feet. If he were to truly press down, it would be like that time he accidentally pressed against Mu Hongyuan's body.

"I don't care. Sister here doesn't feel comfortable enough yet." Mu Hongyuan's brow furrowed with a hint of dissatisfaction, yet her expression also carried an uncontainable authority that was incredibly enticing.

Wang Mu pondered.

Mixed Element Energy is a very special type of energy, capable of merging with other Spiritual Power.

If I really were to press...

Wait, I am a student of the sword!

Wang Mu brought his index and middle fingers together. He condensed Mixed Element Energy onto his index finger and imbued his middle finger with a potent Sword Intent.

Using the finger as a sword!

Wang Mu narrowed his eyes, fully activating his Primordial Golden Pill. He mobilized his Mixed Element Energy, causing it to resonate with the Seven Emotions Sword Heart in his Sea of Consciousness, and then executed the Love Nine Sword Technique.

With one finger, he poked.

Instantly, Wang Mu felt his fingertip penetrate a faint membrane of energy and touch something soft—the sole of her foot.

Mu Hongyuan's entire body shivered, a muffled moan escaped her nose, and a faint blush spread across her supremely beautiful, lofty face.

In that same instant, a surge of potent Mixed Element Energy flowed from the sole of her foot, through Wang Mu's palm, and into his body, coursing through him.

Wang Mu didn't dare to be careless. He felt his very soul tremble as he was assailed by waves of a unique Emotion Poison. He immediately activated the Great Yin Yang Union Diagram, resisting with all his might…

"Continue…" Mu Hongyuan said softly.

Wang Mu repeated the technique, still using his finger as a sword, combining Mixed Element Energy, embodying Sword Intent, and executing the Love Nine Sword Technique.

With his current strength, even without employing an actual Sword, merely using his finger as one—and considering his body itself was comparable to a Spiritual Artifact—the might he could unleash was incredibly strong.

Yet, even so, he could only barely penetrate the Mixed Element Energy protecting the sole of Mu Hongyuan's foot.

Furthermore, if his fingertip hadn't been infused with Mixed Element Energy, the rebound from this sword-finger attack would likely have killed him.

One could only imagine how terrifying the body of an Ascension Realm expert truly was.

Even if Wang Mu mustered all his strength for a single strike, without this special interaction of Mixed Element Energy, he would be utterly unable to break through her body's defenses.
