Chapter 50 – The Bronze Needle (1/2)

Chen Chang Sheng looked at Xuan Yuan Po who was in front of him and thought for a moment, “Try to transform your right arm.”

Xuan Yuan Po never had any hope for him to heal his wound and he was already irritated after sitting on the floor for such a long time. Now hearing Chen Chang Sheng wants him to transform his already handicapped right arm, his face turned nasty and he looked at Chen Chang Sheng as if he was about to eat him whole.

“Did you not hear what the master said?” Luo Luo said.

Xuan Yuan Po’s anger was put down and he began to try to transform.

Although his right arm was already handicap, but he could already transform himself without much thought. After a few moments, his arm was changed dramatically and kept on growing. It bursted out of his shirt and black furs began to grow out of the skin of his arm.

Chen Chang Sheng held his wrist and felt that strong heart beat. He could already feel the crooked veins andthe messed up qi inside him. He searched sincerely and tired to understand while comparing the wound to the records on the Scrolls of the Way.

Time slowly passed and Xuan Yuan Po suddenly looked at him with some hope and nervousness.

A long time has passed and Chen Chang Sheng opened his palm.

Luo Luo asked, “How is it, Master”

Chen Chang Sheng didn’t answer her question. He first asked her to get a needle box from his luggage in the small building, then he picked out a single bronze needle and casually placed it into Xuan Yuan Po’s arm.

This needle was the thickest in the needle box, its main purpose was to enhance blood flow, but now he was using it for another purpose.

The surface of the bronze needle reflected a cold light and the tip was extremely sharp. But after Xuan Yuan Po’s arm was transformed, his skin would be very touch and even normal weapons couldn’t penetrate it. Logically speaking the needle shouldn’t be able to pierce through his skin but yet it easily went through the thick fars and stabbed into his flesh.

“What do you feeling? He looked into Xuan Yuan Po’s eyes and asked.

Xuan Yuan Po was confused. He focuses a little and said, “A little…..numb?”

Chen Chang Sheng lightly twisted the end of the needle and asked again, “What about now?’

“A little sore.” Xuan Yuan Po’s expression turned excited.

No matter sore or numb, any feeling would be a positive thing, even pain would be nice. His right arm was like a stone recently! but now at least he felt something.

Xuan yuan Po looked at Chen Chang Sheng and his lips were shaking slightly. He was utmost surprised.

Although it was just a small change, but Chen Chang Sheng really accomplished something that even the instructors and the royal doctors couldn’t!

Looking at his expression Luo Luo smirked, it seemed like she was extremely proud and satisfied.

She never once doubted Chen Chang Sheng’s ability, she believe that he only contained it within himself due to some secret.

Everything happened from the days at Herb Garden to the Tradition Academy all proved her belief to be correct.

Now even her people like Officer Jin and Officer Li were about to be convinced by her.

———————————–

“It wouldn’t be an easy thing to forfeit all the qi and reattach the veins in his body.”

Chen Chang Sheng reorganized the needle box and looked at Luo Luo, “It may take a long time, I suggest for him to stay in the capital instead of returning to his clan.”

Luo Luo answered, “We will follow your suggestion.”

Chen Chang Sheng looked at Xuan Yuan Po and said, “Just stay in the Tradition Academy, there are still a lot of empty space.”

The Tradition Academy was large and currently only hold two students, Chen Chang Sheng and Luo Luo. It was kind of too empty and one extra person wouldn’t be any trouble.

At this moment Xuan Yuan Po was still overwhelmed by the previous excitement and joy, then he thought back to his rude attitude towards Chen Chang Sheng and felt insecure. But suddenly he heard his response and was embarrassed. He closed his lips tightly and wouldn’t speak because he felt he didn’t deserve such sympathy.

Chen Chang Sheng looked at Luo Luo and said, “You finish this.”

Luo Luo raised the stick of discipline and looked at Xuan Yuan Po, “Speak for yourself.”

Xuan Yuan Po wasn’t going to speak. He wasn’t going to speak even if she kills him under the stick.

Luo Luo has no other way but to ask Chen Chang Sheng, “Master, what should we do?”

Chen Chang Sheng told Xuan Yuan Po, “Sometimes unwilling to accept any sympathy or help isn’t pride, but stupidity.”

Xuan Yuan Po was bothered, he scratched his head and said, “I know, but I just can’t do it.”

Chen Chang Sheng sighed and didn’t speak any further.

Luo Luo was irritated and asked, “What could make you stay?”

Xuan Yuan Po replied with a troublesome expression on his face, “I’m not a student of Traditional Academy.”
