Chapter 17 – Violet Bamboo Divine Needle (III)

———————————————

Ye Yin Zhu didn’t reply and only smiled faintly. He waved his right hand, and a violet light followed his motion. Whoosh. That Violet Bamboo Needle silently pierced Hai Yang’s right cheek.

The slight stab of pain was accompanied by a numbing sensation, so he hadn’t given Hai Yang very much discomfort. Upon hearing Xiang Luan crying out in alarm, Hai Yang couldn’t help ignite the hope in her heart because if he could really heal her scarred face, well…

“Senior Hai Yang, can you please take off your jacket?” Ye Yin Zhu waved his right hand and two more Violet Bamboo Needles were withdrawn from the cloth bag.

“What?” Hai Yang, Xiang Luan, and Sura simultaneously cried out in alarm. Their gazes towards Ye Yin Zhu immediately became strange.

Ye Yin Zhu twirled the Violet Bamboo Needles above his hand and helplessly explained, “My acupuncture skill isn’t very proficient. Plus, I’m not very familiar with the female body. I can’t pierce through the clothing with the needle as that can easily cause problems. The meridians in Senior Hai Yang’s face first require the upper body to be un.o.bstructed  in order to deal with source: the meridians in the cheek.”

Xiang Luan spoke without taking the time to think. “Why must you do this? Even if that’s the case, Hai Yang’s body still isn’t something for you to examine. That’s out of the question. This absolutely won’t do.” She slid her body between Ye Yin Zhu and Hai Yang as she spoke, not allowing him to approach any closer.

Sura repeatedly nodded and said, “Precisely, how can you look at another girl’s body?”

Ye Yin Zhu looked at Hai Yang. At this moment, Xiang Luan had already removed the hand that had obstructed Hai Yang’s eyes. Their gazes met, and Hai Yang saw the clarity in Ye Yin Zhu’s eyes that was without even a trace of depravity. There was only sincerity in that pure gaze.

Nibbling her lower lip, Hai Yang’s eternally icy eyes now displayed resolve. She recalled that final scene against the Wind division students. Ye Yin Zhu, in order to protect them, faced the Green Dragon by himself without cowering at all. His sincere and pure gaze, as well as his gentle and fresh aura, made people trust in him.

“Okay, I’ll take it off.” Hai Yang pulled away from Xiang Luan. Taking a deep breath, she began unb.u.t.toning the upper portion of her white dress.

“Hai Yang, why are you doing this…” Xiang Luan grabbed Hai Yang’s hands as she spoke anxiously.

Hai Yang lightly sighed. “Elder Sister Xiang Luan, weren’t you encouraging me just a moment ago? Perhaps this is the chance. If he can really perform that legendary art of healing, this may be my last chance. I want to give it a try. I believe in Ye Yin Zhu’s character.”

Xiang Luan slowly released Hai Yang’s hands, her beautiful eyes exuding only lament. “Ye Yin Zhu, I’ll hand her over to you.”

In his heart, Ye Yin Zhu was excited. Hai Yang’s trust made his whole body seem as if it were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with boundless strength. The Bamboo Dou Qi within his body slowly circulated, its rhythmic breathing gradually calming his excitement. While treating Hai Yang, he couldn’t make any mistakes. The meridians of a person’s face were extremely complex. If a problem occurred, not only would Hai Yang’s face be unrestored, but she would even be unable to form any facial expressions in the future.

“Why haven’t you left? Are you wanting to take advantage of this?” Xiang Luan glared at Sura, who still stood behind Ye Yin Zhu.

“Oh.” Sura looked distracted. He sent a complicated look towards Ye Yin Zhu as he handed over the cloth bag to Xiang Luan. “Yin Zhu, I’ll wait for you outside.”

One b.u.t.ton undone, two b.u.t.tons undone, then the neck area of the dress opened wide. Hai Yang’s slender, elegant neck was gradually revealed. The faint, delicate, maidenly fragrance was somewhat refres.h.i.+ng. Icy and sweetening, it stimulated Ye Yin Zhu’s senses.

Finally, the several b.u.t.tons were completely undone. Hai Yang closed her eyes, her long eyelashes constantly and lightly trembled. Both of her hands shook slightly as they moved along her jacket, slowly slipping down. More and more snow white skin was exposed. Her body emitted that sweet fragrance, which became increasingly more distinct.
