Chapter 229: Ruthless Carefree King, Betrayal, Suspicion

```

Before the dawn is not the limit for the Taoist, but for Shui Lingyue.

Shui Lingyue hid under the red quilt, a strand of hair damp with sweat sticking to her cheek. Peeking out with her embarrassed and flushed half-face, she said, "Yi Taoist, what did you want to tell me earlier?"

Yi Chen replied gently, "There was something, but not anymore~"

"Rest up."

Gently patting Shui Lingyue's jade back, cradling her like a pipa placed askew in his embrace, Yi Chen smacked his lips and soothed Shui Lingyue into a deep sleep.

Moments later, his eyes suddenly opened.

He could see the lifespan entry in the virtual panel before his eyes had changed.

His lifespan had unexpectedly increased from 1200 to 1266.

"Wasn't it supposed to be an extension of thirty years? Why has it almost doubled?"

For a moment, Yi Chen couldn't help but widen his eyes; a conjecture suddenly emerged in his mind.
