Shen Tianxing imdiately said, "I wouldn’t despise you! No matter what you look like in this life, Master, I will never despise you!"
Seeing Dugu Zixi smile and reveal a row of white teeth, Shen Tianxing gently chided with a coquettish note, "Besides, I’ve said before that I will cure you."
Dugu Zixi nodded, "I have another question, how did I suddenly appear here?"
Shen Tianxing sighed softly, "Because, this Lifespace was refined by you, Master, with all your heart and soul for my sake. When the space identified its master, it bound your soul and mine together. As long as our souls persist, we will always be connected with the Lifespace. You suddenly appeared here probably because your life was previously threatened. The Lifespace is sentient and sensed you were in danger, so it automatically protected its master by bringing you in."
After listening to her explanation, Dugu Zixi suddenly understood, "I see. You an, if this space hadn’t protected its master, I might have died."
Shen Tianxing nodded, "Yes, that’s possible."
Dugu Zixi quickly followed up with another question, "Then, can I leave or co back in the future?"
Shen Tianxing smiled and said, "Of course, you can. However, if you’re in Capital City, you can only enter and leave from Capital City; that is, you can only exit from the place you entered."
"Oh, I understand now."
Dugu Zixi smiled at her again and said, "I have no more questions, you can start now!"
Shen Tianxing clasped his sowhat cold hand, her face filled with concern as she said, "Master, your illness has beco so severe that the Lifespace itself has instinctively protected its master. This proves it’s very, very serious. Next, you must cooperate with my treatnt, understand?"
Dugu Zixi smiled faintly and responded, "Okay, I’ll listen to you."
Shen Tianxing casually summoned a bottle of Nourishing Pills, took out one pill, and placed it into his mouth, then told him, "Master, your body has beco extrely weak due to prolonged illness. First, take this Nourishing Pill, and then I will give you acupuncture."
"Okay."
Dugu Zixi obediently swallowed the Nourishing Pill, his compliant deanor making Shen Tianxing feel both sweet and heart-wrenching.
Fearing that her emotions would betray her and be perceived by Dugu Zixi, she quickly summoned the Golden Needle and seriously asked Dugu Zixi to remove his clothes.
Seeing Dugu Zixi’s revealed body, pale but frail with ribs visible, Shen Tianxing felt another pang of heartache as heat welled up in her eyes.
Dugu Zixi saw the concern in her eyes and comforted her, "I’m alright, as soon as my illness is cured, I’ll quickly regain my strength. Don’t worry about ."
Shen Tianxing nodded vigorously, "Yes, I’m not worried. I will make sure you’re well-fed and plump, and you’ll never get sick again."
Dugu Zixi chuckled softly, "Okay."
Shen Tianxing then said to him, "Master, go to sleep first. When you wake up, you’ll feel much better."
"Okay."
Shen Tianxing watched as Dugu Zixi closed his eyes, then she gently brushed his forehead with her hand, putting him into a deep sleep.
Only then did she begin the acupuncture.
Shen Tianxing’s needlework was very fast and accurate.
Quickly, she laid out an Endless Formation with Golden Needles on Dugu Zixi’s body, starting to channel her Spiritual Power, activating the Formation, and slowly transferring her own Spiritual Power into his body, nurturing his long-obstructed ridians.
Once she had nourished all his ridians enough to withstand the pain of channel opening, Shen Tianxing began to help him clear his blocked Eight Extraordinary ridians.
Ti passed, little by little...
The sweat on Shen Tianxing’s brow went from fine as dew to heavy as rain, yet she didn’t stop for a second.
She looked at Dugu Zixi’s ridians, which resembled a clogged river that she had cleared, becoming broader under her hands, just a bit more, and her master’s body would be back to normal.
Finally, when Shen Tianxing was nearly drained of her spiritual power, Dugu Zixi’s ridians were completely open!
Shen Tianxing gazed at her master, whose body had returned to normal, and collapsed on the bed, exhausted.
Watching her master now asleep, she smiled contentedly.
In fact, she thought this was quite good.
In her previous life, it was her master who had taken care of her.
In this life, it was her turn to take care of her master.
Utterly exhausted, Shen Tianxing also closed her eyes and lay quietly beside her master, falling into a deep sleep.
When Dugu Zixi gradually woke up, the first thing he saw upon opening his eyes was Shen Tianxing’s flawless face.
He felt as though he’d had a beautiful dream, where he had died, but heaven had sent a Little Fairy to his side, and she’d brought him back to life.
Now this exceedingly beautiful Little Fairy lay quietly by his side.
He dared not move a muscle, fearing that any movent might awaken him from this beautiful dream.
Just as he hesitated over whether he should kiss the Little Fairy, he suddenly felt a trendous force envelop his body, pulling him back to reality in an instant.
When he found himself back on his own big bed in his room, without the Little Fairy by his side, Dugu Zixi’s heart sank.
Could everything he had experienced be just a dream?
Yet, the dream had felt so real.
Moreover, to his astonishnt, his body seed to have truly recovered; he felt full of strength throughout his entire being.
Dugu Zixi leaped out of bed, opened the door, and rushed out, screaming, "Soone! Co quickly..."
Dugu Zixi’s shouting startled everyone in the entire villa.
All mbers of the Dugu Family were mourning and sorrowful over Dugu Zixi’s impending death.
But at that mont, they heard Dugu Zixi’s shouts.
The first reaction of the Dugu Family was to wonder if they were hallucinating.
However, Dugu Zixi’s voice was ringing clearly and distinctly in their ears, and after snapping back to reality, every one of them frantically dashed outside.
Seeing Dugu Zixi, who had been at death’s door, now standing energetically in front of them, all mbers of the Dugu Family stared in disbelief.
The Dugu patriarch was the first to approach Dugu Zixi, trembling with emotion he asked, "Zixi, how did you suddenly get up?"
With an excited face, Dugu Zixi said to the Dugu patriarch, "Grandfather, I just had a dream where a Little Fairy cured my illness. When I woke up, I felt really good, better than ever before, full of strength. Please call the doctor to co check my body, to see if it really has recovered?"
