The next morning, when Chu Yang went to find Wu Qianqian, he still felt a pain in his backside as if it had split into eight pieces.
This time, Zixie Qing was unusually ruthless for some reason.
Chu Yang used the incomplete version of the ninefold pill and only managed to heal most of the injury. Although it didn’t affect his movements, his butt muscles began to protest with every step.
Chu Yang gritted his teeth and made his way to Jiaxiu Pavilion.
When Wu Qianqian saw him, she was startled. “What happened? Are you injured?”
“It’s quite serious…” Chu Yang frowned.
“Where are you injured? Let me see.” Wu Qianqian hurried over.
“It’s on my butt…” Chu Yang grimaced. “It got swollen…”
Wu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly flushed, and she spat at him, saying, “You pervert!”
“Unjust! This is the truth…” Chu Yang protested with great grievance.
“Hmph! I wouldn’t believe you even if I were dead,” Wu Qianqian snorted.
Since ancient times, when experts fought, who only targeted the butt and left it swollen? Wu Qianqian naturally assumed that Chu Yang was teasing her.
“Hey, let’s get down to business,” Chu Yang said helplessly.
“Hmph!” Wu Qianqian huffed again.
“How prepared are you?” Chu Yang pulled Wu Qianqian to the table, picked up a brush, dipped it in water, and began to write. After the characters dried, only Wu Qianqian could see them.
Wu Qianqian took the brush and said, “I’m ready.”
Chu Yang continued to write, “Does your master know? You didn’t tell her, did you?”
“No. My master is very vengeful and can’t tolerate any evil. If she finds out, she would have probably already killed someone by now.”
“Good. I have a packet of medicine here. You will take it tomorrow night. As long as you don’t use your elemental force cultivation, it will have the same effect as the packet of medicine he gave me; if your master can’t make it in time, you absolutely must not cultivate. You will then recover immediately.”
“Okay.”
“Tomorrow, things will be quite significant. You need to be prepared.”
“I understand.”
After they finished writing, Chu Yang laughed heartily, “I didn’t expect Wu Qianqian’s foundation to be this good. In such a short time, she has improved to this extent. It seems my treatment plan is coming to an end; congratulations, Wu Qianqian.”
Wu Qianqian smiled gently and said, “It’s all thanks to the divine doctor’s miraculous skills.”
Chu Yang humbly replied, “Not at all; it’s because Wu Qianqian has a great foundation! Let’s do this. Wu Qianqian…” Chu Yang pondered for a moment and continued, “Your injury is almost healed but not completely. This situation is very sensitive.”
“Let’s do it this way: you will take this medicine today, and I will go back immediately to prepare another batch. I will deliver it to you tomorrow afternoon. By then, as long as you take it, I, Chu, dare to use my character to guarantee that your injury will be completely healed, and there will definitely be no side effects left behind.”
Chu Yang spoke with conviction.
“Afternoon?” Wu Qianqian asked in confusion. “Divine Doctor Chu has always come in the morning. Why suddenly change to the afternoon tomorrow?”
As she said this, although Wu Qianqian didn’t sense anything, Chu Yang could feel that a hidden divine thought, which had always been seamless, suddenly fluctuated slightly.
Chu Yang calmly replied, “Wu Qianqian doesn’t know, but I originally thought your injury at least needed three more days to heal. I didn’t expect that your aptitude is so good and your foundation so solid; by then, I might not have started preparing those medicines…”
“Wu Qianqian must know that many medicines, if prepared ahead of time, will lose their efficacy. On-the-spot preparation takes time. I need to go back right now to prepare and will have to nurture and moisten the medicines overnight. Then I will use secret methods to extract the essence of the medicines and soak them in a specially made potion. Only to a certain degree can I take them out, prepare them into medicines, and have you take them. At that time, I might not even be able to deliver it until before dark tomorrow afternoon.”
