CHAPTER 956: CHAPTER 953: MOUTH-TO-MOUTH RESUSCITATION

Lin Tian could already see the faint red light emerging from Zi Yan’s mouth and nose, the energy orb was clearly affected by Zi Yan’s false state of death and was preparing to escape.

"Meijia, the orb is about to come out, be careful." Lin Tian warned anxiously.

Kikuchi Mika tightly held onto the pillow, nervously saying, "Sister Zi Yan won’t be harmed, right? She doesn’t even seem to be breathing."

"Steady now, the false state of death is like this. As long as the orb comes out, I’ll immediately release her from the Turtle Breath state, there won’t be any danger." Lin Tian reassured.

As he finished speaking, Zi Yan’s mouth slightly opened, and the red light from her mouth became more pronounced. Clearly, the orb was trying to escape through her mouth. It had already reached the oral cavity. However, upon reaching the oral cavity, it hesitated, as if wary of something.

Lin Tian silently calculated the time in his mind; Zi Yan had been in the false state of death for over three minutes now. If the orb didn’t come out in half a minute, he would have to awaken Zi Yan.

Seriously? Playing games at the crucial moment? Lin Tian looked at the unmoving orb, feeling a strong urge to smack it into oblivion. But there it remained, just a step away from coming out.

Kikuchi Mika’s nose was beading with crystalline sweat from her nervousness. She hesitated as she spoke, "Brother Lin, I... I have a suggestion. Could artificial respiration draw out the orb?"

"Artificial respiration?" Lin Tian paused; he hadn’t considered that method.

Kikuchi Mika nodded, "Yes, artificial respiration. I’m a nurse, so I’ve done emergency rescue training in this area. The training manuals say that if there’s a choke object in someone’s mouth, it should be removed, and sucking it out is one method."

Lin Tian certainly understood artificial respiration, one of the most basic emergency methods, but he wasn’t a professional caregiver and hadn’t thought of it right off.

But kissing her, if Sister found out afterwards, she’d surely chase me down ten streets, Lin Tian mused, considering that Zi Yan was still an unmarried young lady, and a first kiss meant a lot to her.

To a woman, a first kiss is like her first man; she might never forget it for her entire life. The first time always leaves an indelible impression on a woman.

Damn it, who’s afraid of being a pervert? Grab the orb first, no point hesitating! Lin Tian scolded himself internally. At worst, stand still and let Zi Yan chop me ten times to vent her anger.

At this moment, the last second of the Turtle Breath time arrived. Lin Tian, unhesitant, bent down and kissed Zi Yan’s mouth while simultaneously pressing his palm against her Bai Hui acupoint, releasing the Turtle Breath state.

Zi Yan, exiting the Turtle Breath state, slowly opened her eyes. Her first sight was Lin Tian, oh so close, followed by a peculiar feeling on her lips.

Lin Tian was kissing her; the thought flashed through Zi Yan’s mind and thoroughly woke her up. Instinctively, she struggled to stand and break free from Lin Tian’s kiss, but her strength couldn’t compare to Lin Tian’s.

To prevent Zi Yan from moving erratically, Lin Tian held her tightly, restraining her. Simultaneously, he took a forceful inhale, and instantly, a red light emitted between their mouths as the orb was unsuspectingly drawn out, entering Lin Tian’s mouth.

He immediately rose, sealing his lips shut to completely trap the orb inside. Released from Lin Tian’s hold, Zi Yan got up intent on slapping Lin Tian; any woman would react this way instinctively.

However, upon seeing the orb in Lin Tian’s mouth, she immediately froze. Zi Yan wasn’t a fool, quite the opposite. A brief thought, coupled with what Lin Tian had said earlier, made her quickly comprehend that Lin Tian had used his mouth to draw the orb over.

"Junior Brother, quickly spit it out, the orb will control you!" Zi Yan, forgetting the kiss, anxiously shouted, knowing she was controlled when the orb entered her nose, making Lin Tian holding it dangerously.

Seeing Zi Yan’s reaction, Lin Tian felt relieved. If it were the typical woman, they wouldn’t be able to manage such thoughts, surely creating a scene, chasing to hit Lin Tian, or perhaps crying first.

The orb trembled in his mouth, clearly wanting to escape. Lin Tian simply chewed a few times, ground his teeth together, crushing the orb. Then he swallowed, thoroughly consuming it.

His teeth weren’t ordinary teeth, considering they belonged to a zombie, capable of chewing through steel plates. Moreover, the orb was merely a unique energy mass, unable to withstand Lin Tian’s chew and grind, dispersing swiftly. As the orb dispersed, the residual consciousness within it lost its vessel and naturally vanished.

At the moment the orb and consciousness completely dispersed, inside a dark room within a certain Jinghua City building, a person wrapped in a black robe suddenly opened their eyes.

"Another one gone, Jinghua City truly is a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. My witchcraft setups have mostly been destroyed." the Black Robed Man muttered to himself.

Inside Zhao Ya’s residence, Lin Tian had completely finished assimilating the orb, consuming the energy released upon its dispersal, patting his belly and feeling as content as though having indulged in fine cuisine.

Being a vessel for witchcraft, the orb’s energy was weaker than Spiritual Energy entities like Shishen, but still energy nonetheless, and a freely given one with no need for meditation to acquire. Lin Tian naturally enjoyed such a windfall.

"Junior Brother, you... are okay?" Zi Yan asked uncertainly, observing the motionless Lin Tian.

"Oh, nothing, nothing. I’ve already extracted the orb from your body and destroyed it." Lin Tian glanced at Zi Yan, coming back to his senses as he spoke.

Catching sight of Zi Yan’s rosy lips, Lin Tian naturally recalled the earlier kiss, no wait, artificial respiration. Though brief, Lin Tian still vividly felt the wondrous sensation of their touching lips, indescribably delightful.

Just a bit short-lived, Lin Tian shamelessly thought.

Zi Yan naturally noticed where Lin Tian’s gaze lingered, recalling the scene from moments ago, her cheeks flushed. Yet she still put on a senior sister posture, saying, "Junior Brother Lin, you’ve been plotting against your senior sister for quite some time, haven’t you."

"Of course...not. Senior Sister, beautiful, matchless, though I have a tiny thought, just now it was merely an emergency measure during a crisis. Senior Sister certainly wouldn’t blame me, right?" Lin Tian grinned mischievously.

"Only an emergency measure?" Zi Yan half-smiled, standing up and moving to Lin Tian’s front, eyes filled with enchanting allure, making Lin Tian’s heart wildly flutter.

Would Senior Sister want to do it again? Lin Tian wondered with an imaginative mind.

But suddenly, Zi Yan brought her foot down, stepping on Lin Tian’s foot, smiling bewitchingly as she pressed, "Only emergency measures? Then why did you stick your detestable tongue into my mouth, Junior Brother Lin!"

The statement was boldly made; any ordinary girl wouldn’t dare utter it, running away bashfully if anything. But Zi Yan did say it, true to the teasing spirit she always held for her Junior Brother Lin.
