Wang Lan rolled his eyes and almost fainted from anger. He said indignantly, "You wretched woman, I shouldn't have risked my life to get the crystal for you. You're heartless."

But Nan Chen ignored Wang Lan's words.

Wang Lan threw the red crystal to Nan Chen with all her might. Nan Chen caught it, and the hope of instant recovery gave her immense strength, as if most of her injuries had already healed.

"Just crush it!"

Wang Lan said to Nan Chen.

Nan Chen nodded, then squeezed the red crystal with all his might, but the crystal was all bark and no bite. It looked hard on the surface, but it crumbled into powder with a little force and then turned into a red light that enveloped Nan Chen.

A warm feeling suddenly appeared, as if countless warm currents flowed into his body through his pores. Nan Chen felt that with the appearance of this warm current, the pain of his wounds gradually subsided, and in no time, the abundant power returned to his body.

Nan Chen has recovered.

She was startled, realizing that this situation was truly unprecedented. In an instant, she felt full of power, even more so than when she was uninjured.

"That's amazing!"

Nan Chen couldn't help but say to Wang Lan, only then did she realize that Wang Lan was lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

She quickly went over, looked down at Wang Lan, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Huh?" Wang Lan was taken aback, then rolled her eyes and said, "It's nothing, I'm sleepy, I want to take a nap."

"Oh, then you should rest first."

Wang Lan: "..."

That woman has no brains.

Wang Lan cried out in pain, "Ouch! Ouch!"

Nan Chen frowned, finally realizing that Wang Lan's condition was not good. She asked, "Are you injured?"

Are you blind?

Nan Chen: "???"

Wang Lan said, "To get this red crystal for you, I was punched sixteen times and kicked three times by that stone man, and I even lost an arm. You really have no conscience."

"That serious?" Nan Chen was taken aback. "But you seemed to be fighting that stone golem quite easily just now."

"That is..."

Wang Lan hesitated, wanting to tell Nan Chen that it was all because he had the system with him, but then he thought that Nan Chen might not even know what the system was all about, let alone be able to explain it clearly.

So he shook his head and said, "Never mind, I'll just rest for a bit."

Intermediate bloodlines inherently possess good self-healing abilities, and although Wang Lan's body was aching all over from being beaten by the stone golem, these were all superficial injuries. Only his broken arm was the most serious injury.

"Anyway, thank you," Nan Chen said solemnly to Wang Lan.

"You're thoughtful... um? What are you doing?"

After Nan Chen finished speaking, Wang Lan squatted down and grabbed her hand.

"What do you mean... Ahhhhh!"

Before he could even voice his question, Nan Chen's hand moved up his and then suddenly gripped his broken elbow.

A piercing pain immediately struck, and Wang Lan jolted violently, her body trembling uncontrollably.

"Don't shout!" Nan Chen shouted, "Your arm isn't broken, it's just dislocated."

"ah?"

"Get out of here!"

Boom!

Wang Lan: "!!!"

A crisp sound suddenly came from her arm, and Wang Lan's face turned deathly pale, but then she found that her arm no longer hurt.

It turned out to be just a dislocation, not a fracture.

Wang Lan recalled how she had been naughty as a child and had once fallen and hurt her arm. At the time, Aunt Yang said that it was a dislocation, not a fracture, and then used the same method as Nan Chen to heal her arm in an instant.

He wanted to learn the skill, but since then, his physical condition has improved. Although he still gets bumps and bruises, he has never suffered any serious injuries.

Over time, Wang Lan also forgot about this technology.

Now that his arm was reattached, Wang Lan tried shaking it a few times and found that the pain was completely gone. He couldn't help but give Nan Chen a thumbs up.

"This is also to thank you for helping me find the red crystal and healing my injuries," Nan Chen said. "Do you have any other injuries?"

“That’s all,” Wang Lan shook his head, touched his body, and said, “The rest are just superficial wounds. They will hurt for a while, but they’re nothing serious. They didn’t injure any bones or muscles.”

“Yes,” Nan Chen nodded and continued, “I have something to tell you.”

"Hmm?" Wang Lan was taken aback and said, "I also want to tell you something, but ladies first, you go first."

Nan Chen said, "While I was waiting for you, I heard a very strange sound. I think I heard that sound in Tomorrow City before, but I can't remember what kind of monster made it. Anyway, the sound gave me a feeling of...familiarity and strangeness."

"Is that so?" Wang Lan said thoughtfully, "I also heard a strange sound on the other side of the bushes. It was a sound I had never heard before. Moreover, I could feel that the sound was very far away from me, but I could still feel the shock and pressure it carried. It was terrifying."

Nan Chen asked curiously, "Could it be that we heard the same voice?"

"More or less, considering the area covered in bushes isn't very large. But..."

"Just what?"

Wang Lan thought for a moment and said, "You know what? I saw someone in the bushes, or rather, a figure. It should be the person who threw stones at us, but I couldn't see his face clearly. This person is quite strong."
