264, He’s Really Nice (6th update)
It was as if a powerful force continuously flowed into his Dantian, instantly replenishing the depleted Inner Strength until it overflowed.
He quickly sat cross-legged and started ditating to absorb this energy.
Focusing it in his Dantian and then circulating it through his body, he realized that his Inner Strength had suddenly improved. The barrier that had always seed insurmountable was breezed past with ease. Fatigue vanished, and he felt invigorated, his senses sharpened, even his throat feeling itchy.
He suddenly started to cough.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
The itch soon turned into pain, and his coughing beca fierce; he coughed up blood, and with it, a voice.
This startled Xie Zhinuan, who quickly supported his arm, “Uncle, I…”
She had no idea this would happen.
The mute looked up, grasped Xie Zhinuan’s hand, signaling her not to be afraid.
Even if he coughed himself to death, he wouldn’t bla the young lady.
It was his lack of fortune that he couldn’t enjoy the unparalleled Spiritual dicine.
“Uncle…” Xie Zhinuan called out gently.
She patted the mute on the back to help him.
“Cough, cough, cough!” He kept coughing.
He spat out blood, mouthful after mouthful, and whereas this should have left one in discomfort, he felt a sense of relief as if expelling all the hidden injuries and burdens within himself.
In the past, his coughs were silent, but today, they had sound.
He was afraid that Xie Zhinuan would worry, so he quickly tried to reassure her, “I’m alright!”
“…”
“…”
Xie Zhinuan was shocked.
Lian Huai was stunned.
The mute himself was dumbfounded.
Although his voice was incredibly raspy, he recognized it as his own.
He, he could talk.
Was this coughing up blood his way of expelling whatever had been blocking his throat?
Then, another fit of coughing ensued.
Xie Zhinuan slowly sat on the kang.
She truly did not know the dicine pill had such a powerful effect that it would enable the mute to speak.
She thought back to the mute from Xiaohe Village, realizing that his ability to speak had also begun after drinking the well water she had enhanced with the Spiritual Spring.
After all, each ti the child delivered firewood, she always offered him a bowl of water.
“…”
Xie Zhinuan sat on the kang, slightly surprised, but without regret.
Perhaps, it was this mont when she truly understood that possessing the Spiritual Spring was not for her to keep to herself, but ant to aid the suffering masses.
She shouldn’t only focus on making money or martial arts; she also ought to learn dical skills.
And at that mont, she truly found the aning of her journey to this other world.
Making money was for survival, protecting oneself to prevent being taken advantage of was self-love, but truly utilizing her abilities to help those who couldn’t afford to see a doctor, buy dicine or even food, that was true selfless love.
It was in that instant that sothing changed within the space. The location of those dicine pills, the contents within those books-like watching a movie-all rged into her mind.
The origins of those treasures, their journeys, were all clear to her.
Within the space, the waterlon seeds she had planted sprouted, blossod, and bore fruit.
She no longer needed to enter the space; she could feel it, almost as if she could see it.
Xie Zhinuan let out a soft laugh as tears fell down her cheeks.
She had missed out on precious months.
By the ti Li Hengyi ca in, after all the assassins had been killed and the day had broken, Lian Huai was sitting in a chair lost in thought, and the mute was regulating his Inner Strength through ditation.
And Xie Zhinuan was crying.
He thought Xie Zhinuan was frightened, moved forward to gently embrace her, soothing her with a soft voice, “It’s okay, I’ve dealt with the assassins!”
