Mu Jinyu was stunned when he heard Jian Ruyan's words.

The women around him usually called him Jinyu directly, like Lin Qiaoxia who called him Young Master Mu, but the only one who called him Little Mu was Wen Rou.

So, does this mean that Wen Rou is still residing in Jian Ruyan's body?

But didn't he successfully send Wen Rou's soul back to her own body? How could this happen?

Could it be that even after repeatedly confirming, he still sent them to the wrong bodies?

Mu Jinyu felt a chill in his heart. What should he do now?

Is it possible to shake their souls once again and send them back to their own bodies?

"Pfft!"

Seeing Mu Jinyu's dumbfounded expression, Jian Ruyan suddenly burst out laughing and said, "How was it? Did I act well?"

Mu Jinyu stared blankly at Jian Ruyan's smiling face, in her sly and lively eyes, there were no emotions like fear, confusion, or grievance.

He suddenly realized, responding with some gritted teeth, "Damn, Little Yanzi, you got me. Damn, you scared me. I thought I really messed up."

Although his tone carried some complaint, he actually breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Luckily, he didn't make a mistake, otherwise, if he had to shake their souls again, it would probably put even more of a burden on their bodies.

"Just teasing you a bit to see if you could recognize me and Wen Rou," Jian Ruyan said with a smile.

"This isn't funny," Mu Jinyu shook his head and said.

However, he was actually quite happy inside. The former Jian Ruyan was always cold, almost like an ice block. It wasn't until she reconciled with Xiang Mantang that she got a little better, but she was still somewhat aloof.

When she accompanied him to the Kunlun Ruins, her attitude towards him was not very good. It was only after they spent more time together that their relationship improved slightly.

But now, after he shared the news that Mu Shao'ai had avenged their family, the fear lurking in Jian Ruyan's heart finally dissipated, allowing her to finally act like a normal girl.

She even joked with him now.

Something that was once utterly inconceivable.

At this moment, Wen Rou also let out a soft moan and woke up.

She opened her slightly confused eyes, looked at Jian Ruyan and Mu Jinyu, and mumbled, "Little Mu, did we succeed?"

This was Wen Rou's tone indeed.

Mu Jinyu sighed inwardly and then said, "Yes, we did. How do you feel?"

As he spoke, he performed a spell with the Profound Light Mirror to serve as a mirror for Wen Rou so she could see if she had returned to her original appearance.

Wen Rou widened her eyes, looked in the mirror, and saw her familiar face, the face that had hovered before her eyes for a long time. She appeared a bit dumbfounded, then her eyes reddened, and she couldn't help crying with excitement. She threw herself into Mu Jinyu's arms and murmured, "Little Mu, I've finally returned to my original form, and I can finally hold you like this again, sob sob sob..."

"There, there, it's all over now..." Mu Jinyu also wrapped his arms around Wen Rou, no longer in the awkward, rigid posture he used to have when Wen Rou, in Jian Ruyan's body, occasionally embraced him in emotional outbursts.

His movements were familiar and natural, just like in the past.

Jian Ruyan sat on the side, a faint smile on her lips as she watched the scene, then quietly got up and left the room.

She felt guilty in her heart; if not for her, Wen Rou and Mu Jinyu wouldn't have had to endure this, even though they were by each other's side, they couldn't get too close, suffering emotionally.

Now that she and Wen Rou finally returned to their respective bodies, the guilt in her heart had eased a little.

It was time to let the two lovers have their time of reunion.

...

Jian Ruyan spent half a day cultivating in what was originally Wen Rou's room.

When she opened her eyes again, her gaze was filled with confusion and disbelief as she murmured, "How could this be?"

At this moment, she had finally broken free of the aftereffects of soul seizing, and once her soul returned to her body and she cultivated again, her cultivation level soared from the Fifth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm to the Seventh Layer!

She broke through two minor realms!

This was simply unbelievable!

In theory, while her cultivation talent wasn't bad, it wasn't strong enough to be this impressive, was it?

She now had progress that could rival Mu Jinyu's incredible pace.

"No..." Jian Ruyan quickly realized and murmured, "In theory, although I've returned to my body, my talent shouldn't have improved, but instead weakened considerably. Yet, this situation has occurred, indicating that the effects of the various spiritual medicines that Wen Rou and I accumulated in our bodies over the past year have finally been able to exert their effects now?"

"Also, during the recent time when Jinyu became the Dragon Head Leader, it was said that the dragon vein shifted, and not only in the Heavenly Sword Faction but also in the entire Yan Kingdom, many people broke through multiple levels."

"Wen Rou and I were by his side at that time, without any movement or benefits, which evidently all accumulated and exploded now!"

Jian Ruyan quickly realized that her improved cultivation was not due to strengthened talent, but because a year of cultivation with top-grade spiritual medicines without previous effect had finally exploded, allowing her to break through several realms.

"I wonder if Wen Rou is cultivating, or if she's enjoying the newlywed phase with Jinyu. I wonder how her cultivation progress is going?"

After surmising her situation, Jian Ruyan felt some concern about Wen Rou's progress. Could she have soared to the Eighth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm, or even the Ninth Layer?

"Unfortunately, I can't disturb them right now. I'm really curious to know the result." Jian Ruyan said with some curiosity.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Just then, her door was knocked upon, and Wen Rou's voice sounded, "Sister Ruyan, you're not cultivating, are you?"

"Mm." Jian Ruyan snapped back to reality, surprised by the coincidence and quickly replied, "Mm, come in, I just have something to ask you..."

"Creak!"

The door opened, and Wen Rou rushed in with excitement, her cheeks still flushed with excitement, and she called to Jian Ruyan, "Sister Ruyan, how's your cultivation? I've actually broken through to the Fanxu Realm."

Jian Ruyan heard this, looked intently at Wen Rou, and her own excited and fervent expression suddenly froze.

It was true.

Wen Rou had directly advanced from the Fifth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm to the Fanxu Realm in just half a day!

How monstrously talented!

Jian Ruyan originally thought that breaking through two levels to reach the Seventh Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm was quite an achievement and guessed that Wen Rou, with possibly better talent, might reach the Eighth Layer or even the Ninth Layer...

But unexpectedly, Wen Rou surpassed an entire major realm and advanced to the Fanxu Realm!

This was beyond her wildest expectations.

And she couldn't help but feel a little lost.

"Oh, Sister Ruyan, you..."

At this moment, Wen Rou also noticed Jian Ruyan's cultivation level, which was only at the Seventh Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm.

Wen Rou wasn't a fool either and knew that her cultivation talent was slightly better than Jian Ruyan's, so she initially speculated that by reaching the Fanxu Realm, Jian Ruyan should have reached around the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have come over to ask about Jian Ruyan's situation, for fear of unintentionally flaunting and wounding someone's pride.

But unexpectedly, Jian Ruyan turned out to only be at the Seventh Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm.

This was truly beyond Wen Rou's expectations.

"Actually, your situations are quite normal..."

At this point, Mu Jinyu entered and smiled as he explained to them.
