"The Marrow Cleansing Pill, it seems it really was sent by Dad this time!"
Gu Nianqing said with a smile, "After all, only my father could have obtained the Marrow Cleansing Pill. My father couldn't possibly have such a thing."
"The Marrow Cleansing Pill? The one from the novel?"
Bai Li asked curiously.
Gu Nianqing nodded, then smiled and said, "That's right, that's it. This is a good thing, Father. After you eat it, you'll definitely become even more beautiful!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can you describe Father as handsome!"
After hearing Gu Nianqing's words, Bai Li couldn't help but reach out and pat Gu Nianqing, then chuckled and scolded her.
After Bai Li finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but add, "How about giving it to your father?"
Gu Nianqing took the jade bottle and the Marrow Cleansing Pill from Bai Li's hand again, put the pill into the jade bottle, and then put it back into Bai Li's hand. "Father, please take it without worry! Father will definitely have some too. However, this Marrow Cleansing Pill cannot be taken now. It takes at least a week to cleanse the marrow and tendons. Father can ask the agent to adjust the time so that we can take it later."
Bai Li put the jade bottle into his spatial storage, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I'd better ask your father tonight first! What if there's only one left!"
...
On the other side, Zhao Jinxiang carefully opened the jade bottle again, and a delicate fragrance wafted out. He poured out the pill and examined it closely. The pill was round and smooth like a pearl, emitting a faint glow. He took a deep breath, then looked up at Gu Nanxun and slowly asked, "Nanxun, how do I take this?"
"Uncle, this cannot be taken for the time being. The process of cleansing the marrow and tendons will take a week. Uncle needs to arrange your work there before you can take it in the space."
Gu Nanxun explained earnestly.
"It really takes a week? Isn't that dangerous? What about your Uncle Bai Li's situation?!"
Upon hearing that it would take a week, Zhao Jinxiang suddenly asked nervously. He wasn't worried about himself, but he was concerned about Bai Bai.
"Don't worry, Uncle, there won't be any danger. It'll just be a bit tough, but don't worry, Nianqing is there! Everything will be fine. Qingqing and I have already eaten, so don't worry, Uncle."
Seeing his uncle's nervousness, Gu Nanxun patted him on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile.
Zhao Jinxiang breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and then said with a smile, "It's good that there's no danger. It's okay to suffer a little. This kind of suffering isn't something that just anyone can endure."
Gu Nanxun smiled and nodded. He knew that his uncles were both hardworking people, and this opportunity to cleanse their marrow was indeed rare for them. It was worth enduring some hardship.
"Then, Uncle, you should arrange your work first. Qingqing and I will also prepare some spiritual fruits to help you recover your strength. You can recover quickly after taking the pills."
Gu Nanxun continued.
Zhao Jinxiang looked at Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing with gratitude, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. "Okay, I'll go back and make the arrangements now, and try to start as soon as possible."
Lin Qing added with a smile, "Uncle, don't worry, we will prepare everything. You just need to focus on preparing yourself."
Zhao Jinxiang nodded, then reluctantly left the space to go back and arrange his work. He knew this was a rare opportunity and he was determined to seize it.
Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing remained in the space, preparing some spiritual fruits and herbs to help restore their strength. They knew that the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill were potent, and that proper rest was necessary after taking it; these spiritual fruits and herbs could accelerate the recovery process.
...
A few days later, Zhao Jinxiang and Bai Li had both arranged their work, and Zhao Jinxiang arrived at the space. Gu Nanxun also video-called Bai Li. That night, when Bai Li and Zhao Jinxiang were talking, they discussed it and decided to take it together.
Gu Nanxun also gave Bai Li a portion of the spiritual spring water and spiritual fruit he had prepared.
At this moment, Gu Nanxun was guarding Zhao Jinxiang in the space, while Gu Nianqing was guarding Bai Li over there.
Bai Li and Zhao Jinxiang sat in a bathtub filled with spiritual spring water. They exchanged a glance through the video and then simultaneously swallowed the Marrow Cleansing Pills in their hands.
The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, a warm current flowing down his throat and into his abdomen, then spreading throughout his body. Zhao Jinxiang felt his entire body brimming with power, as if every cell was cheering with joy. He closed his eyes, sensing the changes in his body, a look of delight appearing on his face.
Before he could even enjoy the comfort this power brought him, a sharp pain immediately struck him. His face contorted in agony, and blood seeped from his skin, quickly staining the bathtub crimson.
Gu Nanxun and Gu Nianqing stayed by their side until their pained expressions subsided, at which point they both breathed a sigh of relief.
After that, Gu Nanxun observed Zhao Jinxiang in the space while attending classes, while Gu Nianqing stayed by Bai Li's side without leaving him for a moment, and even the food was delivered to him by Lin Qing through the space.
...
A week later, Zhao Jinxiang and Bai Li had both completed the process of cleansing their muscles and marrow. They felt light and refreshed, as if they had been reborn.
Zhao Jinxiang opened his eyes, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "This Marrow Cleansing Pill is truly amazing! I feel completely refreshed and full of energy."
Upon hearing this, Gu Nanxun smiled. He knew the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, and seeing Zhao Jinxiang so happy made him happy too. "Uncle, how are you feeling now?" Gu Nanxun asked with concern.
Zhao Jinxiang said excitedly, "I feel better than ever before. My body feels light and my spirit is high. I feel like I'm ten years younger. This Marrow Cleansing Pill is truly amazing."
Gu Nanxun nodded and said, "The effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill are indeed extraordinary. However, Uncle, the medicinal power has only entered your body and has not been fully absorbed yet. You still need to exercise your body step by step so that the medicinal effect can be maximized."
Zhao Jinxiang nodded: "I understand, I will be careful."
At this moment, Zhao Jinxiang saw that Bai Li had also opened his eyes on the other end of the video, so he couldn't help but ask happily, "Bai Bai, how are you? How are you feeling!"
Feeling the power within his body, Bai Li exclaimed in delight, "I feel full of energy, and my body has become incredibly light!"
Bai Li reached out and touched her waist-length hair, then touched her skin, silently adding in her mind that her skin had become exceptionally good.
"Bai Bai, you've become so beautiful!"
Zhao Jinxiang also noticed Bai Li's change at this moment, and he couldn't help but stare at Bai Li across from him.
