Harness Cultivator
Chapter 186: Smooth Action

"Unblock my final two meridians?" Cai Hong held a dazed look, clearly unable to comprehend Lee Tao's suggestion.

She had been cultivating for the past hundred years, so how could she not know how many meridians are in her body? At first, she really believed he was messing around with her, but when she recalled the vicious oath he swore before.

She realized he might just be a psychotic idiot that doesn't really know what he was doing.

"Sigh, forget it. Just leave before I change my decision to slaughter you all." Cai Hong waved her hand and said in an exhausted tone.

Given how Lee Tao had never really done actual damage to their camp, she decided to just let him go and not risk an all-out fight between them.

Meanwhile, Lee Tao was dumbstruck as he expected her to jump up in joy and embrace him.

'What the actual fuck??!' Lee Tao cursed inwardly. He was being serious and was about to help her unlock her true potential.

Why did she suddenly take him for an idiot?

"Q-Queen Cai Hong, do you think I was messing around with my own life?" Lee Tao asked in disbelief.

"What I just said is nothing but the truth. We can also bet on this if you think I'm lying."

"Why would I want to bet with you? Just talking about my final two meridians is enough to piss me off already. Leave now!"

Lee Tao facepalmed when he could tell Cai Hong had really taken him for an idiot.

Well, the term goes by saying, seeing is better than listening to it.

Thus, Lee Tao directly pointed his finger near the chest area of Cai Hong and shot out a strand of profound qi.

Cai Hong was alarmed to see him trying to attack her. She tried to dodge but found herself restricted in place. Without a choice, she had to witness the strand of profound qi invading her body.

Her eyes flared up as she gnashed her teeth angrily, "Damn it, I've indeed been careless enough to believe the despicable human being."

She was exuding a large amount of murderous aura, wanting to slice and dice the crap out of Lee Tao. The killing intent was so fierce that Lee Tao was nearly shocked by her reaction.

"Stop struggling, I'm just unlocking one of your meridians to show you I'm telling the truth." Lee Tao took a deep breath and decided to remind her of one thing.

"Don't forget about the vicious oath I have sworn. I wouldn't dare to harm you at the risk of my life, would I?"

Cai Hong remained silent, but her eyes were still full of anger. As a queen, she was attacked yet she couldn't even dodge or move her body.

She felt humiliated to be done in by a mere human who was also only at the tender age of 17.

Suddenly, she felt a surge of heat erupting in her body when the strand of Lee Tao's profound qi unlocked a meridian that she had never known existed in her body.

Shocks and disbelief filled her eyes as she gritted her teeth to suppress the pain.

Unlocking meridians are never an easy feat and would always pain the person to the point that they want to commit suicide. After all, unlocking meridians is essentially changing the body structure and defying heaven's way.

A few minutes later, Cai Hong was sweating profusely as some of them even dripped onto the bed sheets.

She took another minute to calm down as she glanced at Lee Tao in disbelief. If she still believed he was some idiot at this moment, then she needed to get some doctor to treat her.

"H-How is this possible?" She asked him stutteringly. "Why are there more meridians in my body despite me unlocking them all already?"

"Those two meridians are known as the vintage borderline points. Only those with an abundant amount of experience could detect it and unlock them." Lee Tao answered truthfully.

As an Immortal, those hidden meridians are naturally detectable by him with a single glance. Thus, it was extremely easy for him to help others unlock their true potential. Of course, that doesn't mean he will easily do it because unlocking them requires a lot of things.

One must have a durable body and a high enough cultivation base to endure the process.

Just like how Cai Hong was sweating like some pig, she only managed to endure the unlocking because of her stable and steady foundation. If it were some other people, then they might have died from the gruesome pain alone.

Meanwhile, Cai Hong struggled for a moment before she managed to stand up and held a profound gaze at Lee Tao, clearly unable to comprehend his capability.

"Are you really 17 years old?" She asked again.

Lee Tao nodded his head.

"Didn't the bone age test alone verify this point already?"

"Then I must apologize. I can never fall in love with such a young man. Young men are simply not my type. So even though you could help me unlock my last meridians, I can not fall in love with you no matter what."

Lee Tao was baffled. Clearly, he did not expect her rejection to be because he was too young for her.

Cai Hong didn't bother with the expression he was making as she continued, "I'm around 300 years old already and have gone through multiple stages of life. Although I have never been in love, I don't plan on replaceing one either. My goal is simply the preservation and the prosperity of our snakesclan as the queen."

With that said, she was about to leave the room to tell the guards that everything was fine now. Given how Lee Tao had sworn not to harm her, she believed he had no nefarious intention of coming to their camp.

However, Lee Tao suddenly grasped her wrist.

Before she could tell him to let go of her, Lee Tao had already pulled her back closer to him and kissed her on the lips.
