261: Training Luck (3 More)
It felt like fire was coursing through her body, gradually igniting every limb and bone, yet she couldn’t move at all.
Pain surged through her entire body, and sweat broke out on her forehead.
The mute servant pressed a few points on her back, making Xie Zhinuan cry out even louder from the pain.
“Ah!”
Hearing this, hesitation flashed in the mute servant’s eyes, but he didn’t stop.
Xie Zhinuan’s body was already much better than that of many people, but because it was so good and unlike an ordinary person’s, she should be considered a martial arts prodigy. Once he started to channel his Inner Strength into her, it was like entering a vast sea of stars, nowhere near sufficient, and unable to consolidate in one place.
The mute servant grew anxious.
From using ten percent of his strength to fifty percent, and finally with all his strength in one palm strike, he managed to condense a thread of Inner Strength at Xie Zhinuan’s Dantian.
When he withdrew his hand, exhausted of his Inner Strength, he spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed.
“Uncle Mute!” Xie Zhinuan exclaimed.
She hadn’t turned around yet when she heard the sound of the mute servant falling on the kang bed, and when she looked back, she saw his mouth was bloody, yet his face bore a smile.
The oil lamp in the room was dim, but she could see clearly.
“Uncle Mute!” Xie Zhinuan quickly grabbed her clothes.
To help the mute servant.
The mute servant smiled at her and nodded slightly.
Telling her that it was a success.
This young lady, if she truly masters martial arts one day, would be unmatched under the heavens.
“Uncle Mute, are you alright?” Xie Zhinuan asked with concern.
She knew it was a success.
Because her vision was brighter, her body lighter, her spirit much refreshed, and it felt as though a ball of fire had gathered at her chest, burning through her entire body.
“Mmm!” the mute servant nodded.
Having exhausted his Inner Strength, with some rest, he would recover after a period of time.
He was still pleased, at the age of fifty, to have found such an excellent successor.
He couldn’t formally ask her to call him master like the old master could, but he was willing to do so, just as his master had been when he had accepted him simply because he had a decent foundation and potential.
If his old master knew that he had found a girl with such excellent potential, he would probably be overjoyed.
“Uncle Mute, thank you so much!” Xie Zhinuan said softly.
Lian Huai and Li Hengyi entered the room.
Xie Zhinuan’s clothes were still slightly disheveled.
Lian Huai was more concerned about the mute servant and did not look, but Li Hengyi caught sight of Xie Zhinuan’s exposed delicate collarbone.
His mouth went dry, and he quickly cleared his throat, “Zhinuan, how do you feel?”
“I feel like there’s a ball of fire in my chest, my whole body is warm!”
“That’s because you’ve cultivated Inner Strength, condensed it at your Dantian. With the mantra practice in the future, you’re sure to achieve great results!” Lian Huai spoke softly, ordering people to carry the mute servant out.
“Master, should we get a doctor to look at Uncle Mute?” Xie Zhinuan asked.
“His condition, doctor or not, remains the same. He just needs proper rest for the next half month, refrain from martial arts, and he’ll slowly recover after a month!”
“…”
Yet Xie Zhinuan thought about making some nourishing food to help the mute servant regain his health.
Once the mute servant had been carried out, Xie Zhinuan was about to tidy up the kang bed when Li Hengyi said, “Sit down, I’ll channel energy through you to check!”
“?”
Xie Zhinuan didn’t understand.
“Guiding you to channel your energy again will solidify your Inner Strength, allowing you to practice on your own later!” Li Hengyi said earnestly.
Xie Zhinuan was pletely clueless about martial arts.
Willing to practice on her own in the future, she naturally agreed.
Sitting cross-legged, she looked back at Li Hengyi and asked seriously, “Do I need to take off my clothes?”
Li Hengyi’s face immediately flushed red.
His ears were burning hot, not to mention his racing heart.
“Th-that’s, take them off,” Li Hengyi said softly.
The fanciful thoughts in his mind grew more intense.
But he couldn’t show it.
