Chapter 19: Passing Through Xuan

After listening to Xiao Che’s words, Xia Qingyue tried to condense her Xuan Force into her hands. At that instant, her heart was once again shaken, because the Xuan Force was too much smoother than before when condensing in both hands, and the speed, too, was nearly two to three percent faster.

Looking at Xia Qing Yue’s reaction, Xiao Che nodded his head in satisfaction: ”Doesn’t it feel much more smooth and fast? If you draw out the cold qi from your entire body and your meridians are smooth, your body temperature will be no different from a normal person’s when you don’t use the Ice Cloud Skill, all negative reactions will no longer appear, and the speed of Xuan Li’s execution will be nearly half as fast. Moreover, from now on, the speed of your cultivation of the Ice Cloud Technique will also be at least 30% faster! Oh, I’m just casually talking about it, so you can just casually listen to it as well, there’s no way you’ll let me do that anyway.”

As Xiao Che spoke, he had already begun to pack up the things that he had brought from the Medicine Room.

“Did you just say that …… the speed of cultivating the Ice Cloud Skill would be thirty percent faster?” Xia Qingyue snapped her head sideways. Xiao Che’s words caused her to be completely stunned, so shocked that she wanted to believe it, but was unable to.

An elixir that could allow a person to accelerate their advancement by about one or two percent within a year or two was a rare treasure under the heavens that no one would question, and it was enough to cause a large swath of blood and rain to rise up from the scramble. And the meaning of Xiao Che’s words …… was a permanent increase of thirty percent!

These words were more than amazing! If a certain thing, or a certain condition could allow a person’s Xuan cultivation speed to permanently increase by as high as thirty percent, then Xia Qingyue had no doubt that the world’s swarms of heroes would swarm out and grab it with all their might.

“Yes.” Xiao Che nodded, “Whatever you believe.”

Xiao Che’s look of “believe it or not” on the contrary made Xia Qing Yue believe a few more points, plus the feeling after being adjusted by him was even more of a personally felt fact, in the face of the shocking words that he had lightly spoken, she was no longer able to generate too much doubt. This kind of feeling made herself deeply surprised. Huge ice cloud fairy palace in the pale wind continent stands for thousands of years, have never heard of the existence of such an amazing effect of the method, this small Liuyun City, Xuan pulse crippled, and only sixteen years old teenager, will be so sure to say …… and also let her uncontrollable vaguely believe in.

“If it really has the effect you said …… why would you then say that I don’t agree with you to do it?” Xia Qingyue said.

“This well ……” Xiao Che’s mouth tilted and said in a serious manner, “It’s very simple, just think about it yourself and it’s white. To dispel the coldness of the whole body and the veins that are condensed, surely you have to apply needles on the body, since you have to apply needles on the body, of course you have to take off your clothes, or at least you have to expose your whole back to me …… You don’t even want to give me your hands to touch, would you be willing to take off your clothes in front of me?”

Xia Qingyue: “……”

“Alright, the silver needles have been used, it’s time for me to send them back to the medicine room.” Xiao Che rushed at Xia Qingyue with a faint smile, “There’s no need to thank me, after all, you’re my wife. You ran in the middle of the night last night to send me blankets, it’s only right that I do something for you.”

Looking at Xiao Che’s back as he packed up his things, Xia Qingyue’s face changed for a while before she finally took the initiative to open her mouth again, “The cold qi that has built up in my body, I’ve always known about it. The early stages of the Ice Cloud Skill will condense some of the meridians, I also know that. If the cold qi is dispersed and the meridians are unblocked, it is true that the discomfort of the body can be lifted, and it will also be of some help in the exertion of xuan power …… but what does this have to do with enhancing the speed of cultivating xuan power?”

“This involves very complicated medical theory, well, very complicated, so I don’t really want to talk about it, and I even if I did, you wouldn’t be able to understand it.” Xiao Che said vaguely. Even the cold sweat on his forehead nearly came out …… He had thought that his previous words and acupuncture had already succeeded in bluffing Xia Qingyue, but he didn’t expect that she was still full of doubts and asked, and directly asked to the point …… Because enhancing the speed of cultivation, and cold qi, meridians and whatnot , really is half the relationship is not.

Fortunately, Xia Qingyue did not ask any further questions, and just as Xiao Che re-tied up the package, Xia Qingyue once again opened her mouth: ”All these things, where did you learn them from? With the acupuncture technique you used just now, you are completely qualified to join those huge medicine sects! If you really have those abilities you mentioned before, then not to mention this tiny Liuyun City, the entire Cangfeng Continent would know your name, and how would you have remained obscure and instead only have the name of a cripple.”

Joining those medicine sects? Xiao Che disdainfully brushed his mouth, then turned his face and calmly said, “All of these, were taught to me by my master?”

“Your …… master?” Xia Qing Yue’s moon brows moved slightly, she had never heard that Xiao Che had any master.

“My master is a great healer who has spent his entire life hanging on to the world, saving countless lives. I met him when I was very young. He taught me to look and smell, acupuncture and finger sizzling and pushing, taught me medical theory and pharmacology and toxicology, and taught me to know all the world’s hundred medicines, hundred poisons, hundred insects, and hundred herbs. I am his only inheritor, to me the grace of a mountain, lifelong difficult to repay …… but not long ago, away from me, so that I have no way to trace …… this is why I will be some of the medical skills, as for the other, you do not ask more. Master s matter, I don t want to mention too much. Moreover, I know this matter of medical skills, not to mention outsiders, even my grandfather and my little aunt don’t know, you are considered to be the only one who knows besides myself.”

Thinking of his departed master, Xiao Che’s face was unable to suppress the sadness and remembrance that surfaced on his face. This was his truest emotion, without a hint of falsehood or artifice. This kind of truthfulness also allowed Xia Qingyue to completely believe Xiao Che’s words as she was infected, and said softly, “To be able to allow you to possess skillful to astonishing needle skills at such a young age, it seems that your master must have been a very great healer.”

“The greatest healer in the world, bar none!” Xiao Che said with incomparable determination.

Xiao Che’s appearance made the doubts in Xia Qingyue’s heart unconsciously decrease by a few more points, and after a slight hesitation, she finally made up her mind, “……Then, are you sure that what you said that it will allow me to permanently increase my cultivation speed by thirty percent ……is true? ”

“Since I said it, I won’t dishonor my master’s medical name. Eh? You don’t …… want to try it, do you?” Xiao Che turned around and looked at her with a face full of surprise.

Xia Qingyue let out a small sigh of relief and slightly sidestepped her gaze, “Are you sure you only need to show your back.”

Xiao Che’s eyes light up, his face comes forward and he smiles, “It’s okay if you have to show all of it ……”

Xia Qingyue’s double eyebrows cracked, her red sleeves flung out, and a cool wind that suddenly swept up caused Xiao Che’s entire body to shiver. She walked towards the bedside and said faintly under her breath, “Start, let me see if your medical skills are as amazing as you say …… However, if you dare to have any other thoughts, I will definitely not spare you.”

“You can slap me to death with a single slap, even if I wanted to, I wouldn’t dare ac.” Xiao Che smiled thievishly.

The Silver Needle Box and Red Yang Flower Juice that had just been put away were taken out again, then he walked to the bed, and said to Xia Qingyue, who was already sitting on the bed with a serious face, “Take off your clothes!”

The three words that were very pure, were frozen by Xiao Che shouting out the feeling of a bully forcing a good woman.

It can be imagined that Xia Qingyue, who has always been ice-clean and pure, like a proud lotus, will react inwardly to hearing these three words……. However, the cultivation speed permanently increasing by thirty percent, this temptation is just too big. So big that it can be said that it is impossible for any XuanShi to resist it! Because if it really succeeds, it means that the same talent and enlightenment, the same Xuan Gong and Xuan Technique, the same environment and resources, the progress of three years of cultivation will be equivalent to the other party’s four years of cultivation! After a hundred years, it would exceed the other party’s progress by thirty years!

Xiao Che also took advantage of the fact that Xia Qingyue would not choose to refuse even if she wanted to undress. This was because Xia Qingyue was clearly a girl who pursued higher Xuan power, otherwise, she wouldn’t have joined the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace at the consequences of breaking her love and desire.

If it is really like what he said, then, such a price is completely worth it …… not to mention, it is also only a mere back exposure. Xia Qingyue thought as such, turned her back to Xiao Che, her chest lightly rose and fell, already her heart was as flat as a mirror, she closed her eyes, her coat buttons were undone, the big red garment slowly slid down along her fragrant shoulders and jade arms, and at once, the beauty’s jade back was presented without any concealment in front of Xiao Che’s eyes.

She pulled the brocade quilt over her chest, closed her eyes, and spoke out coldly: “Start immediately! No other thoughts allowed!”

“A woman’s body, isn’t it for her own husband to see.” Xiao Che carefully muttered, then closed his mouth and picked up the silver needle, the moment the silver needle entered his hand, his complexion also became grave.

Feeling Xiao Che’s breathing behind her which had become steady, Xia Qingyue who was just about to speak stopped speaking and slightly closed her eyes. Although she was somewhat unable to believe that what Xiao Che said was true even now …… , the temptation to increase the cultivation speed by thirty percent, even if there was only the slightest possibility, there was no one who was able to refuse it.

The sound of the wind moved slightly, as Xiao Che’s wrist shook, a silver needle had lightly stabbed the Tianzong point on Xia Qingyue’s jade back, and his fingers did not touch half of her skin.

Xiao Che began to move his fingers like flying, one silver needle after another was picked up by him, swiftly and accurately stabbing Xia Qing Yue’s back, so fast that he could only see a piece of continuously shaking shadow.

Xia Qing Yue closed her eyes and focused all her attention on her back, she began to notice that each silver needle stabbing was accompanied by a trace of Xuan Qi. This discovery caused Xia Qingyue’s heart to flutter ……

She was very clear about Xiao Che’s physical condition, with his Xuan Vein crippled, he could only be stationed at the Primary Xuan Realm Level 1, and what he could exert was only the most basic, the tiniest Xuan Qi. And although the Xuan Qi that accompanied every silver needle that pierced into her back was tiny to her, that was almost the limit of intensity for the Xuan Power of the Primary Xuan Realm Level One!

She did not know why Xiao Che wanted to entrap Xuan energy in the silver needles. However, it clearly meant that he was using his full strength with every single needle he stabbed out.

Previously, due to the eight needles on her hand being completed too quickly, her attention was also focused on Xiao Che’s techniques, so she did not notice this. Noticing it at this moment caused her heart and sea to be unable to calm down for a moment.

At this time, twenty-three needles had been inserted into her back, and Xiao Che’s speed, too, had obviously slowed down. If Xia Qingyue looked back at this time, she would see that he was already slightly red in the face and sweating profusely.
