2337 His Arrival 5 (1/2)
Fortunately, Di Fuyi was well aware of how to give a good massage by kneading her hand at the precise acupuncture points.
Gu Xijiu closed her eyes to rest and was overwhelmed by a sudden change in her body. The pill must have been some elixir of life as the immense pain in her body was greatly reduced immediately after she swallowed it.
She could feel a steady flow of energy coming from her stomach and slowly spreading into every inch of her muscles. It was a very warm sensation.
Once he realized that the pill started to take effect, he stopped massaging her and proceeded to put their palms together in order to channel his spiritual power into her body. The flow of spiritual power was controlled and effective. His spiritual power moved steadily in her bloodstream and helped the elixir work more effectively. The steady flow of energy also helped her blood circulation.
The healing technique was, indeed, a painful one. His spiritual power flowed through her body like a knife cutting through her tissues, slowly removing the toxins that were trapped in her every vessel.
Her body trembled a little in discomfort, as seen from the sweat all over her face. Di Fuyi could not bear to see her in pain, but he could not stop either. He had to finish what he started.
He thought that she would, at least, groan in pain. To his surprise, she did not even make a sound. Her only obvious reaction to the pain was the sweat all over her.
Did she really have to hide her pain in front of him? He was not going to tease her, anyway.
”Scream if you are in pain!” Di Fuyi sounded rather demanding.
Gu Xijiu looked at him confusedly. She did not quite understand his obsession with whether or not she should scream in pain. It should have been obvious that she had a high tolerance for pain. She did not even let out a sound before the pill started to take effect, which was when the pain was the worst. Why would she complain about the pain right now, when it was more tolerable?
A sense of familiarity suddenly hit her. She felt that they had been through the same situation some time ago but could not remember exactly when and where.
