210: No treatment required
The sunlight lazily spilled onto the glazed tiles, reflecting dazzling golden light.
It was the most pleasant time for an afternoon nap for ordinary people, but for Su Lin, it was just escaping a demonic den called an Asura Field.
After the wolfish debate in front of Taiji Hall about whose technique was better, Su Lin forcefully used Spatial Great Shift to teleport himself to the most remote and desolate corner of the imperial palace.
This was the abandoned medicine garden of the Cold Palace.
It was overgrown with weeds, with broken walls and ruins, not even a stray cat could be seen.
"Hoo..."
Su Lin sat on a moss-covered stone pier, letting out a long, turbid breath.
He touched his still faintly aching lower back, and then the colorful marks on his neck, feeling utterly exhausted.
"How is this taking on disciple? This is clearly raising a group of succubi who want to devour me alive."
He closed his eyes, enjoying this rare tranquility.
However.
This tranquility was like the calm before a storm, fragile and easily shattered.
"Revered Master~"
A voice, sweet as if three catties of honey had been added, and hissing like a venomous snake's tongue, drifted eerily from the grass behind him.
Su Lin's hairs instantly stood on end.
He was too familiar with this voice.
It was his third disciple, Chu Weiwei, who looked harmless but was actually full of ideas about turning people into specimens or medicine puppets.
"Why are you here?"
Su Lin didn't turn his head, but his body tensed, ready to teleport away again at any moment.
"Who is Revered Master hiding from?"
A rustling sound came.
Chu Weiwei pushed aside the waist-high weeds and walked out.
Today, she wasn't wearing her signature moon-white Medicine Immortal dress, but had changed into a light purple gauze skirt.
The fabric was extremely thin, appearing semi-transparent in the afternoon sun, faintly revealing the embroidered mandarin duck underwear beneath.
She carried a small bamboo basket in her hand, filled with several freshly dug, strange herbs with blood-like roots.
"Weiwei just came here to gather some Heartbreak Grass and Corrosive Heart Flower, but I didn't expect... to encounter a solitary Revered Master."
She walked in front of Su Lin, squatted down, cupped her chin in her hands, and looked up at him.
In her misty, large eyes, there was an excitement and pity, like a hunter seeing wounded prey.
"Revered Master's complexion looks terrible."
She extended a finger and gently poked Su Lin's eye bags.
"Dark circles have appeared."
"Was Senior Sister too forceful last night, draining all of Revered Master's vital essence?"
"Nonsense."
Su Lin slapped her hand away and sternly tried to maintain his Revered Master's dignity.
"I am merely contemplating the Laws of the Dao, which consumed some of my mental energy."
"Liar."
Chu Weiwei pouted, stood up, and circled Su Lin like a kitten, sniffing the air.
"Revered Master's body... has a very strong scent of deficiency."
"That's the scent of kidney water depletion and Yang Qi leakage."
She stopped behind Su Lin, placed her hands on his shoulders, and pressed lightly on his Jianjing acupoint.
"Hiss."
Su Lin couldn't help but gasp.
Sore! Swollen! Painful!
"See, Revered Master still won't admit it."
Chu Weiwei chuckled in his ear, her warm breath spraying on his earlobe, carrying a faint herbal fragrance and a hint of indefinable sweetness.
"This is a major acupoint connected to the kidney Meridian. The pain upon pressing indicates that Revered Master is at the end of his rope."
"If not treated in time..."
Her fingers slid down Su Lin's spine like a cold venomous snake, finally stopping at his lower back.
"You might become impotent later, you know~"
"Chu! Wei! Wei!"
Su Lin gritted his teeth, "Are you cursing me?"
"Weiwei wouldn't dare."
Chu Weiwei blinked innocently and pulled out a dark green jade bottle from the bamboo basket.
"Weiwei just feels bad for Revered Master."
"Since Senior Sister only cares about killing and not burying, only knows how to take and not how to maintain, then the important task of repairing Revered Master's body can only be left to Weiwei."
She shook the jade bottle in her hand, and the sound of viscous liquid sloshing inside could be heard.
"Revered Master, there's no one else here."
"How about... letting Weiwei give you a full body and mind healing session?"
"I refuse."
Su Lin stood up to leave without thinking.
Healing?
Believe her, my foot!
This girl's healing usually involved bloodletting, planting Gu, or soaking you in some unknown poison for three days and three nights.
"Revered Master can't leave."
Chu Weiwei didn't chase, but stood still, smiling as she counted.
"Three, two, one."
"Thump."
Su Lin had only taken three steps when he suddenly felt his legs go weak, and that familiar feeling of being drained of strength returned.
Not only his legs, but even the spiritual power in his body seemed to be frozen, operating with extreme sluggishness.
"You... poisoned me?!"
Su Lin leaned against the broken wall, looking at her in disbelief.
"When?!"
He had clearly kept his Immovable King Body's passive defense active, making him immune to all poisons!
"Just now, actually."
Chu Weiwei wiggled her fingers, a tiny bit of pink powder remaining in her nail crevices.
"This is the Soft Jade Warm Fragrance Powder that Weiwei recently developed."
"It's not poison, it's a great tonic."
"It's specifically for the Physique of high-level Cultivators, instantly softening bones and relaxing muscles, putting the body into an extremely relaxed state, convenient for subsequent massages and acupuncture."
She walked in front of Su Lin and, like a strongman, effortlessly lifted the limp Su Lin into her arms.
"The Immovable King Body defends against harm, but it can't defend against a disciple's filial piety."
She carried Su Lin towards a dilapidated hut deep within the abandoned medicine garden.
"Revered Master, don't be afraid."
"Weiwei's technique... is very good."
...Inside the hut.
Although it looked dilapidated from the outside, the inside had been surprisingly tidied up by Chu Weiwei.
A simple wooden bed was covered with thick white cotton cloth.
Beside it were dozens of bottles and jars, as well as a row of gleaming silver needles, gold needles, bone needles, and even a few small knives that looked like they were used for boning.
"Bang."
Su Lin was placed on the wooden bed.
At this moment, his whole body was soft and weak, like a lamb awaiting slaughter.
"Chu Weiwei, this is deceiving your Revered Master and destroying your ancestors!"
Su Lin could only kill with his eyes.
"How can Revered Master say that?"
Chu Weiwei rolled up her sleeves while examining Su Lin's body with an extremely professional gaze.
"Weiwei is practicing medicine to save people."
"As the saying goes, a physician's heart is like a parent's. In Weiwei's eyes, Revered Master is now a critically ill patient who needs care."
She picked up a pair of scissors.
"Snip, snip."
Several crisp sounds.
The green robe that Su Lin had finally managed to put on neatly instantly turned into a pile of shredded cloth, revealing his muscular Physique.
"Tsk tsk tsk."
Chu Weiwei extended her cool fingers, drawing circles on Su Lin's chest.
"Senior Sister is truly wasteful; such good material, yet she made such a mess."
She pointed at the golden Dragon mark, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes.
"This mark blocks Revered Master's Qi and blood circulation, it must be dealt with."
Saying that, she took a bottle of purple medicinal oil from beside her.
"Revered Master, bear with it."
She poured the medicinal oil into her palm and rubbed her hands together to warm them.
Then, she suddenly pressed them onto Su Lin's chest!
"Hiss!!!"
Spicy?
Is this damn spicy?!
This was clearly like pouring molten iron onto his skin!
That burning, stinging pain instantly drilled into his pores, spreading wildly along his blood vessels, as if countless tiny centipedes were gnawing at his Meridians.
"Relax, Revered Master, you must relax."
Chu Weiwei straddled Su Lin, her hands moving like dancing butterflies across his chest and abdomen, pressing, kneading, and massaging.
Her strength was immense, each press accurately hitting Su Lin's sore spots.
Pain!
But... after that extreme pain, a strange sense of comfort actually arose.
The turbid Qi that had been stagnant in his chest was gradually being expelled from his body with her massage.
"Mm..."
Su Lin couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
"See, Revered Master is actually very comfortable, right?"
Chu Weiwei smiled like a cat that had stolen fish.
She leaned down, her cheek pressed against Su Lin's chest, listening to his rapid heartbeat.
"Revered Master's heart is beating so fast..."
"Is it because of the pain? Or because of Weiwei's hands?"
Her hands began to slide downwards.
"Stop!"
Su Lin used all his strength to shout one word.
"No treatment needed!"
"Why not?"
Chu Weiwei looked up, her face serious, like an old scholar discussing academic problems.
"The kidneys are the foundation of the Innate, the source of Revered Master's power."
"Senior Sister must have taken excessively last night, leading to Revered Master's primordial yang deficiency."
"If not timely strengthened and nourished, it will affect... cough cough, affect the Dao in the future."
At some point, a three-inch long golden needle appeared in her hand.
"Revered Master, don't worry, Weiwei's needle here is called Golden Needle Acupoint Crossing."
"As long as it's inserted into the Guanyuan acupoint, it can instantly lock in vital essence, ensuring Revered Master's golden spear... cough, Dao Heart is eternally firm."
Looking at the gleaming long needle, being gestured at a spot three inches below his navel.
Su Lin only felt his scalp tingle, and an indescribable part of his body experienced a phantom pain.
"No need! My body is very good! Extremely good!"
"No, you're not good."
Chu Weiwei stubbornly shook her head.
"You're avoiding treatment."
"If not acupuncture, then..."
She put away the golden needle, her eyes suddenly becoming somewhat seductive.
"Then there's only one other way."
"Another way?" Su Lin had a bad premonition.
"Medicinal tonics are not as good as dietary tonics, and acupuncture is not as good as Dual Cultivation."
Chu Weiwei licked her lips and picked up a small jar from beside her.
"Inside are two Gu worms, one male and one female."
"As long as each of us swallows one..."
"Then our senses will be connected, pleasure will be doubled, and pain will also be doubled."
"Moreover..."
She opened the jar, and two crystal-clear, pink-crystal-like insects crawled out.
"As long as this Gu is planted, Revered Master, whenever you feel affection in the future, Weiwei will know."
"If you dare to feel affection for another woman... even if we are separated by thousands of miles, Weiwei can make you... wish you were dead, you know."
This was naked threat!
This was turning him into a human monitor!
"Chu Weiwei! If you dare to mess around, I'll expel you from the sect!" Su Lin roared, feigning ferocity.
"Expel me from the sect?"
Chu Weiwei paused, her eyes suddenly reddening.
"Does Revered Master not want Weiwei anymore?"
"Weiwei just wants to help Revered Master with his illness... Weiwei just wants Revered Master to belong to Weiwei alone forever..."
"If Revered Master doesn't want me anymore... then what's the point of Weiwei living?"
She picked up a small knife and held it against her neck.
"Then Weiwei will die for you to see! Let your medicine garden have another beautiful corpse!"
"…"
Su Lin was helpless.
This trick of crying, making a fuss, and threatening suicide, she played it to perfection.
"Put the knife down."
Su Lin sighed, his tone softening.
"I didn't say I didn't want you."
"Really?"
Chu Weiwei immediately threw down the knife, bursting into tears and then laughter, her facial changes as fast as turning pages.
"Then Revered Master agrees to plant the Gu?"
"How about something else?"
Su Lin tried to bargain.
"Those worms are too disgusting, I can't accept them."
"Then..."
Chu Weiwei's eyes darted, her gaze falling on a jar of wine nearby.
"Then let's use medicated wine for massage."
"This is medicated wine soaked for three hundred years with eighty-one kinds of great tonics, including tiger penis, deer antler, and Cynomorium songaricum."
"It can not only strengthen the body but also... whiten and moisturize the skin."
She slapped open the mud seal, and an intensely strong wine aroma, enough to make one bleed from the nose with a single whiff, instantly filled the hut.
"Come, Revered Master, turn over."
Chu Weiwei rubbed her hands, now covered in medicated wine, until they were warm.
"Slap!"
A pair of hot little hands pressed against his back.
Following that was a dazzling array of massage techniques.
It must be said that although Chu Weiwei was a Yandere, her medical skills were indeed Grandmaster-level.
Her strength was just right, her fingertips carrying spiritual power, slowly kneading the efficacy of the medicated wine into Su Lin's muscles.
That sensation of soreness and exhilaration slowly relaxed Su Lin's tense nerves.
"Mm..."
He couldn't help but let out a comfortable sigh.
"Revered Master, is it comfortable?"
Chu Weiwei leaned on his back, massaging him while blowing air into his ear.
"It's alright."
"Then do you want something even more comfortable?"
Chu Weiwei's fingers suddenly became a little unruly.
Originally massaging his back, they slowly slid to his waist.
"Chu Weiwei, where are you putting your hands?!" Su Lin was alarmed.
"Oh, this is the Changqiang acupoint, pressing it is good for the body."
Chu Weiwei spouted nonsense with a straight face.
At this moment, she was completely draped over Su Lin's back, her soft curves pressed tightly against his back.
With her movements, their bodies constantly rubbed against each other.
Su Lin felt a wicked fire rise from his lower abdomen.
That medicated wine... definitely had something wrong with it!
It wasn't just a tonic; it definitely had 'that' added to it!
"Revered Master... your body temperature has risen."
Chu Weiwei sensed Su Lin's change and smiled even more triumphantly.
"It seems the medicine is taking effect."
"This medicated wine has a side effect."
She bit Su Lin's ear, her voice utterly seductive.
"That is, after applying it, the skin becomes particularly sensitive."
"Even a slight touch will feel like an electric shock."
