My Cold and Ruthless CEO Wife-Chapter 36: My Cold Wife is a Cultivator

When Long Tian woke up, he realized he had slept for almost an entire day.

The cleansing of his organs had taken a heavy toll on his body, leaving it completely exhausted.

He had predicted this, so he made sure to wash the equipment he used for the refinement.

This prevented him from being exposed.

As for the bathtub, the entire medicinal liquid was absorbed by him, leaving only water behind.

He checked the changes in his body and saw that his strength had increased again.

When he attacked, the damage he dealt was noticeably different.

He could increase the pressure behind his fist or any part of his body he used to attack.

His body could become soft like water, fierce like fire, sharp like metal, and heavy like earth.

He looked for a sharp object, cut himself, and within seconds, the wound healed.

His body’s healing power had also increased.

He could now utilize the power of the five elements, even if it was only minimal.

Despite this, he didn’t feel happy and simply treated it as normal.

The improvement in his strength was still small.

He was still in the Meridian Cleansing Tier; he had not yet cleansed the remaining meridians in his body.

He cleaned the bathtub while taking a shower.

He wore a grey top and black jean shorts as he stepped out of his room.

As usual, Meng Lingxue had already gone to work. He saw Aunt Anna sitting in the living room, watching television.

When she heard footsteps, she turned and saw Long Tian behind her.

"You are awake, sir," she said, standing up, and Long Tian nodded.

"I have prepared lunch for you, sir. Let me go and warm it," she said, walking to the kitchen.

Long Tian sat on the chair, rubbing his stomach. He felt full; he knew it was because he had just cleansed his organs.

They still needed nutrition.

He didn’t wait long before Aunt Anna served him, and he began eating.

The food was quickly digested.

He noticed this and realized that all the organs he had cleansed were now more efficient than before.

He didn’t go anywhere, as he didn’t want to endanger Aunt Anna.

After eating, he went back to his room and checked the Infinite Source Diagram.

His consciousness appeared there. The Nine Dragon Stone Statue and the Shadow Fox were still there.

As he checked the nine dragons’ stone statue, he noticed something.

One of the stone dragons now had cracks on its body.

This confused him and made him wonder if he had done something wrong.

After a long thought process, he saw there was nothing wrong.

He looked at the cracked dragon statue—what would come out of it?

Would it be a dragon?

He became curious.

Time flew, and before he knew it, the next day had arrived. It was the weekend, and he had completed the Meridian Cleansing Tier. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

His strength had grown again, and he now had control over his body and organs.

Today was also the day they would have dinner with the Meng family.

He woke up at dawn. As he stepped out of his room, he looked at Meng Lingxue’s door across from his.

He remembered trying to probe into her room before, but it had failed.

He suddenly felt the urge to try again now that he had crossed another tier.

He used the Mystic Dragon Eye to peek into her room.

Even though he knew it wasn’t right, what had happened last time had sparked his curiosity, and he wanted to test the limits of the Mystic Dragon Eye.

His eyes glowed gold as he looked into her room.

This time, he saw darkness for a moment before noticing some etched runes.

Seeing this shocked him greatly, and he froze.

With the inheritance he had gained, he recognized what it was.

A formation.

He checked again—the arrangement, the sequence, the order of the room. It was a formation.

What’s a formation doing in her room?

Is she a cultivator?

Does she know about the formation?

A flood of questions flooded his mind.

He suddenly realized that his wife was nothing like the person he thought she was.

He grew curious about what was happening that made her set up a formation or what someone else might have set it up for.

He pushed the power of the Mystic Eye to its maximum, trying to break through the formation.

It was incredibly taxing on his mind and body.

But he didn’t stop. Even though his eyes began to swell with blood.

He finally succeeded in piercing through it, and what he saw made thunder roar in his mind.

Meng Lingxue was seated cross-legged, her eyes closed in meditation.

He saw her absorbing Originat, and the amount pouring into her body was terrifying.

The room was lightly covered in frost.

Long Tian’s mind went blank. What he was seeing was completely unbelievable.

Meng Lingxue, deep in cultivation, suddenly snapped her eyes open and looked in his direction.

Everything turned dark as the connection was cut.

Long Tian hurried back to his room, trying to be silent.

Meng Lingxue opened her door but found no one there. She looked at Long Tian’s door and then walked away.

When she looked through her door, she saw him sleeping — his vital signs indicated he was asleep.

Maybe it was just her imagination, but she felt like something was watching her.

She returned to her room and resumed meditating.

Meanwhile, Long Tian sighed in relief. He felt her consciousness sweep over him.

His mind was in shock.

Such a powerful consciousness — she had noticed he was spying on her.

He stood up. How had he not sensed any wisp of Originat from her?

He realized that the cold wife he married was no ordinary person.

She was a cultivator, and her strength was extraordinary.

With his current level, he couldn’t even imagine how deep her power was.

His strength as the Fox King couldn’t compare to hers.

He stared at his door, as if he could see through it and uncover what she was truly hiding.

"Who are you... really, Meng Lingxue?"
