After hearing what Xiao Che said, Xia Qingyue tried to gather her profound energy into her hands. Suddenly, her heart was shocked again, because the profound energy flowed much more smoothly when it was gathered into her hands than before, and the speed was nearly 20% to 30% faster.
Seeing Xia Qingyue's reaction, Xiao Che nodded with satisfaction: "Do you feel that your meridians are unblocked a lot faster? If the coldness in your body is drawn out and your meridians are unblocked, your body temperature will be the same as that of a normal person when you are not using the Frozen Cloud Art. All negative reactions will no longer occur, and the speed of exerting profound strength will be nearly half as fast. Moreover, from now on, the speed of your cultivation of the Frozen Cloud Art will be at least 30% faster! Oh, I'm just talking casually, you can just listen to it casually, anyway, you can't let me do this."
As Xiao Che spoke, he had already started packing up the things he had taken from the pharmacy.
“You just said… that the speed of practicing Frozen Cloud Art will be 30% faster?” Xia Qingyue suddenly turned her head. Xiao Che’s words shocked her completely, and she was so shocked that she wanted to believe it, but she couldn’t believe it.
A pill that can speed up a person's progress by 10% or 20% in one or two years is a rare treasure in the world that no one would doubt, enough to cause a bloody storm of competition. And what Xiao Che meant... is a permanent increase of 30%! !
This sentence was more than astonishing! If a certain thing, or a certain condition, could permanently increase a person's Xuan cultivation speed by 30%, then Xia Qingyue had no doubt that heroes from all over the world would flock out and do their best to snatch it.
"Yes." Xiao Che nodded: "It's up to you to believe it or not."
Xiao Che's "believe it or not" look made Xia Qingyue believe it even more. In addition, she had personally experienced the feeling after being treated by him. Facing his shocking words, she could no longer doubt him. This feeling surprised her. The huge Ice Cloud Immortal Palace had stood in the Blue Wind Continent for thousands of years, but had never heard of such a method with such a shocking effect. This young man in the small Floating Cloud City, with a disabled profound vein and only sixteen years old, could say it so confidently... and it made her believe it uncontrollably.
“If it really has the effect you said… why did you say that I don’t agree with you doing it?” Xia Qingyue asked.
"Well..." Xiao Che's mouth twisted, and he said seriously, "It's very simple, just think about it. To dispel the coldness in the body and the frozen veins, acupuncture must be performed on the body. Since acupuncture is performed on the body, of course you have to take off your clothes, at least show me your entire back... You don't even want to let me touch your hands, so would you be willing to take off your clothes in front of me?"
Xia Qingyue: “…”
“Okay, the silver needles have been used, and I should send them back to the pharmacy.” Xiao Che smiled at Xia Qingyue: “No need to thank me, after all, you are my wife. You ran to bring me a blanket in the middle of the night last night, so 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 expression changed for a while, and then she finally took the initiative to speak: "I have always known about the cold energy accumulated in my body. I also know that the early stage of Frozen Cloud Art will condense some meridians. If the cold energy is dispersed and the meridians are unblocked, it can indeed relieve the discomfort of the body, and it will also be helpful for exerting profound energy... But what does this have to do with improving the speed of cultivating profound energy?"
"This involves very complicated medical theories. Well, it's very complicated, so I don't really want to talk about it. And even if I tell you, you won't be able to understand it." Xiao Che said vaguely. He almost broke out in cold sweat on his forehead... He thought that his previous words and acupuncture had successfully frightened Xia Qingyue, but he didn't expect that she would still ask with full of doubts, and asked directly to the point... Because improving the speed of cultivation has nothing to do with coldness, meridians, etc.
Fortunately, Xia Qingyue did not ask any more questions. Just when Xiao Che tied up the package again, Xia Qingyue spoke again: "Where did you learn all these things? With the acupuncture techniques you just used, you are fully qualified to join those huge medical sects! If you really have the abilities you mentioned before, then not only this small Floating Cloud City, but the entire Blue Wind Continent will know your name. How could you remain unknown and only be known as a cripple?"
Join those medical sects? Xiao Che curled his lips in disdain, then turned around and said calmly: "These are all taught to me by my master?"
"Your... master?" Xia Qingyue's eyebrows twitched slightly. She had never heard of Xiao Che having a master.
"My master is a great doctor who has saved countless lives throughout his life. I met him when I was very young. He taught me observation, auscultation, questioning, and palpation, acupuncture, moxibustion, and massage. He taught me the principles of medicine, pharmacology, and toxicology, and taught me to know all kinds of medicines, poisons, insects, and herbs in the world. I am his only successor, and he has been so kind to me that I will never be able to repay him... But he left me not long ago, leaving me with no way to find him... That's why I know some medical skills. As for the rest, don't ask me too much. I don't want to talk too much about my master. And the fact that I know medical skills, not to mention outsiders, even my grandfather and aunt don't know. You are the only one who knows about it besides me."
Thinking of his deceased master, Xiao Che's face was filled with sadness and nostalgia. This was his most genuine emotion, without a trace of falsehood or affectation. This authenticity also touched Xia Qingyue, who completely believed what Xiao Che said and said lightly, "Your master must be a great doctor to have such amazing acupuncture skills at such a young age."
"He is the greatest doctor in the world, no doubt about it!" Xiao Che said with great determination.
Xiao Che's look unconsciously reduced Xia Qingyue's doubts. After a slight hesitation, she finally made up her mind: "... Then, are you sure that what you said about permanently increasing my cultivation speed by 30%... is true?"
"Now that I've said it, I won't insult my master's medical reputation. Hmm? You don't... want to try it, do you?" Xiao Che turned around and looked at her in surprise.
Xia Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief and turned her eyes slightly to the side: “Are you sure you only need to expose your back?”
Xiao Che's eyes lit up, he leaned forward and said with a smile: "If you really want to expose your whole body, that's fine..."
Xia Qingyue frowned and swung her red sleeves. A sudden gust of cool wind made Xiao Che shiver all over. She walked to the bedside and said calmly, "Let's start. Let me see if your medical skills are as miraculous as you say... However, if you dare to have other ideas, I will definitely not let you go."
"You can kill me with just one slap. Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't dare to do it." Xiao Che smiled slyly.
He took out the silver needle box and red sun flower juice that he had just put away, then walked to the bed and said to Xia Qingyue who was already sitting on the bed with a serious face: “Take off your clothes!”
These three very pure words were shouted out by Xiao Che in a way that made it sound like a bully forcing a decent woman.
It is conceivable that Xia Qingyue, who has always been pure and innocent, like a proud and pure lotus, would have a reaction when she heard these three words... However, the temptation of permanently increasing the cultivation speed by 30% is too great. It is so great that it can be said that no profound practitioner can resist it! Because if it really succeeds, it means that with the same talent and understanding, the same profound skills, and 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 will exceed the other party's progress of thirty years!
Xiao Che was also sure that even if Xia Qingyue wanted to take off her clothes, she would not choose to refuse. This was because Xia Qingyue was obviously a girl who pursued higher profound strength. Otherwise, she would not join Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace at the cost of her emotional and sexual desires.
If it was really as he said, then such a price was totally worth it... Besides, it was just exposing her back. Xia Qingyue thought so, and turned her back to Xiao Che. Her chest rose and fell slightly, and her heart was as calm as a mirror. She closed her eyes, unbuttoned her clothes, and the bright red clothes slowly slid down her shoulders and arms. Suddenly, the pink and dazzling white back of the beauty appeared in front of Xiao Che without any cover.
She pulled the quilt over her chest, and the red dress slipped down to cover her plump and attractive buttocks, exposing the curves of her jade-like back. She was really skinny without revealing any bones, and her beauty was unparalleled. The skin on her shoulders and neck was even more pink and flawless, as if it was smooth and moist, and Xiao Che stared straight at her, stunned for a while.
“Start right away! Don’t have any other thoughts!” Xia Qingyue closed her eyes and spoke coldly.
"A woman's body is meant to be seen by her husband," Xiao Che muttered carefully, then closed his mouth and picked up the silver needle. The moment the silver needle entered his hand, his expression became solemn.
Feeling Xiao Che's steady breathing behind her, Xia Qingyue, who was about to speak, stopped talking and closed her eyes slightly. Although she still couldn't believe what Xiao Che said was true... but the temptation of increasing the cultivation speed by 30%, even if there was only a slight possibility, no one could refuse it.
The wind moved slightly, and as Xiao Che's wrist swung, a silver needle lightly pierced the Tianzong acupoint on Xia Qingyue's jade back, without his fingers touching her skin at all.
Xiao Che began to move his fingers very quickly. He picked up one silver needle after another and pierced Xia Qingyue's back quickly and accurately. It was so fast that only a swaying shadow could be seen.
Xia Qingyue closed her eyes and focused all her attention on her back. She began to notice that every time a silver needle pierced her back, it would be accompanied by a trace of profound energy. This discovery made Xia Qingyue's heart move immediately...
She knew Xiao Che's physical condition very well. With his disabled Profound Veins, he could only stay at the first level of the Elementary Profound Realm. All he could exert was the most basic and smallest Profound Qi. And every time a silver needle pierced his back, the accompanying Profound Qi was tiny to her, but for the Profound Power of the first level of the Elementary Profound Realm, it was almost the limit of strength!
She didn't know why Xiao Che wanted to mix profound energy into the silver needles. However, this clearly meant that he was using all his strength with every needle he thrust.
The eight needles on her hand were done too quickly, and her attention was focused on Xiao Che's technique, so she didn't notice this. But now she noticed it, and her heart couldn't calm down for a while.
At this time, 23 needles had been inserted into her back, and Xiao Che's speed had obviously slowed down. If Xia Qingyue looked back at this time, she would see that his face was slightly red and sweaty.
