Chapter 1126 - Purifying Marrows and Cleansing Veins? (2/2)

Li Cai quickly restrained her mind and focused it.

Time passed by. When seven hours passed, Li Cai’s body suddenly shook. She opened her eyes and could smell the stench from her own body.

Tang Xiu didn’t hesitate to take out the Essence Amassing Pill and spoke to her, “The stench is coming out of your system. But that’s because of the impurities discharged from your body. I know that you like cleanness, but it’s not yet the time for that. Take this Essence Amassing Pill first, I’ll help you to step on the cultivation path.”

Li Cai felt her cheek a bit hot since she didn’t think that she was so dirty with so many impurities contained in her system. However, after observing Tang Xiu’s reaction, she found that the man didn’t even seem bothered by the stench from her body. Only then did she finally feel relieved, taking the Essence Amassing Pill and swallowing it at once.

Night then came in the blink of an eye.

When she opened her eyes again, her lips squirmed a few times and her eyes were full of brilliance. She felt power was evident in her body, and she felt much better in shape than she ever had before.

Tang Xiu, who sat cross-legged in front of her, took out a jade bottle from his interspatial ring and handed it to Li Cai. “There are some Life Essence Pills here. You must take one every day without fail. Afterward, begin cultivating according to the mind cultivation art I taught you. After you’ve consumed all these Life Essence Pills, contact me directly, as that will be the time to treat your mother.”

Li Cai got up and her nose moved ever so slightly. Then, she said, “I’ll keep your instructions in mind, Divine Doctor Tang. But… could you please wait for a while? I… I wanna take… a shower.”

Tang Xiu let out a faint smile and waved. “It’s rather late now. I’m not going to stay longer. Go and have a bath. I’ll come back to see you after you’ve finished taking the Life Essence Pills.”

“But it’s late, and I didn’t see you eating today either, Divine Doctor Tang.” Li Cai hesitated before speaking out. “If anything, why don’t you stay for a bit longer and have a meal here? I’ll tell Brother Shaokun to provide you a room so you can spend the night here!”

Tang Xiu was about to reject but then suddenly remembered that Mu Wanying was still in the Bluestar Villa, while he was with Ouyang Lulu now. There would be no way to leave this imperial lady tonight, but God knew what would happen if he were to take her to the Bluestar Villa and run into Mu Wanying there.

“Alright, then! I’ll spend the night here.” Tang Xiu finally agreed and turned around to leave.

At this moment, Hu Shaokun was pacing back and forth with an anxious expression in the hallway outside the room. Tang Xiu and Li Cai hadn’t come out even once from the room all day long, keeping him restless.

Creak…

As the door was opened, Hu Shaokun trembled and looked up to see Tang Xiu coming out from the inside. He then hastily asked, “How’s Aunt Zhuang? Is she cured yet?”

“I already told you previously that I can’t treat the patient, for the time being, else Li Cai will be harmed, didn’t I?” replied Tang Xiu. “But no worries! I can begin the treatment in a few days.”

“What have you been doing all day, then?” asked Hu Shaokun hurriedly.

Li Cai came out from the door behind Tang Xiu at this moment. She didn’t even look at Hu Shaokun and hurriedly ran towards the bathroom.

“This stench…”

Hu Shaokun frowned deeply and raised his hand to pinch his nose. The intense stench gave him the urge to throw up. He was shocked that the stench was actually coming out from Li Cai’s body.

He knew her of her love of cleanness. She usually washed up even if she was only a little sweaty and sprayed herself with a fragrant perfume. And yet, how did she become so stinky today?

“Alright, stop gawking and staring blankly like that, will you?” said Tang Xiu. “Li Cai is fine. I just use a special means to discharge the impurities in her system, which will be very beneficial for her. Also, we’re staying here tonight, so please arrange a room for us.”

Hu Shaokun felt relieved upon hearing it. However, he was still very curious about how Tang Xiu was able to discharge impurities out of the human body. Is it the likes of the marrow purifying and vein cleansing the experts from the Martial World do?

“Okay, I’ll tell someone to arrange it immediately. Do you want a room or two?”

Tang Xiu turned his head towards the next room’s door and replied back to Hu Shaokun lightly, “What do you think?”

“Ugh…”

Hu Shaokun raised his hand to touch his face with an awkward expression. Although he didn’t want to see Ouyang Lulu spend the night with Tang Xiu here, the reality was cruel. They were a man and a woman, and also a couple. It was perfectly justified for them to spend the night together.

Truly a pity!

He couldn’t help but shake his head in secret.
