Chen i, knowing how much her grandmother doted on her, gave a sweet smile before turning her gaze to Lin Feng’s current condition.
Despite her expression, it was clear she remained deeply worried about the severe injuries he had sustained.
Chen Qing also recognized the severity of the situation.
She raised her hand, picking up the acupuncture needles she rarely used these days, and carefully placed them one by one along Lin Feng’s back, infusing each with a trace of spiritual energy.
The mont the needles pierced his skin, Lin Feng’s natural ability to restore itself accelerated.
This effect was particularly potent due to the flesh regeneration pill he had just consud.
Chen Qing, however, wore a look of shock.
The instant her needles touched Lin Feng’s body, she sensed sothing peculiar about his physique.
How is his physical body this strong? It feels more like that of a spiritual beast than a human!
And it’s not just that—his regenerative abilities are far beyond what soone at his cultivation level should possess!
Chen Qing’s hands moved faster and faster, and after a brief adjustnt, it beca clear that she was gradually beginning to live up to her forr title as the number one dicinal practitioner in Silverpine City.
What a lucky brat, earning my granddaughter’s favor...
She thought to herself with a hint of irritation. Yet, when her gaze fell upon Chen i’s worried expression, she sighed inwardly.
She supposed there was no need to make her granddaughter even more anxious.
All right, let’s just get this over with. I don’t want to waste my ti in this dump.
Her eyes swept across the surroundings in distaste.
Despite being one of the most powerful figures in Silverpine City, she clearly disliked staying within Wei Clan territory.
Lin Feng, on the other hand, had little room for stray thoughts.
His sole focus was ensuring that his injuries healed properly without leaving lasting damage.
He concentrated on guiding the dicinal energy from the flesh regeneration pill toward his most critical wounds.
However, he couldn’t help but notice sothing strange.
So of the pain in his body was slowly being siphoned away, as if it were being absorbed by sothing unseen.
Though he didn’t understand why, it allowed him to focus more on the deep wound in his chest.
Whatever he was doing, it was clearly working.
The massive wound stretching from his shoulder down to his waist was slowly closing, and if one looked closely, the torn flesh seed to be stitching itself back together.
At that mont, Lin Feng truly grasped the value of dicinal pills.
I can’t believe this thing is so effective!
He marveled inwardly.
After just a few minutes of absorbing and redirecting the dicinal energy, he felt the last remnants of it deplete.
Yet, the results were undeniable—the gaping wound had fully closed.
Though it wasn’t completely healed and would likely take a few more days to recover fully, the sight alone filled him with relief and joy.
Alright, with this... I’m probably not gonna die anymore.
Lin Feng finally opened his eyes after a few minutes of focusing on healing his injuries.
However, the mont he did, he was imdiately t with the sight of two people—and a humongous Frostvenom Python.
The first person he saw was Chen i. Her deep purple eyes, paired with her pure black hair and flawless white skin, made her look like a painting co to life.
The worry in her gaze only added to her charm, making her appear soft and almost ethereal.
She’s so beautiful...
Lin Feng found himself montarily dazed.
Yet before he could even think about snapping out of it, soone else did it for him.
A low, quiet rumbling suddenly echoed in his ears—not enough to harm him, but it carried an unmistakable sense of warning.
What the heck was that supposed to b—
His thoughts were cut short as he caught sight of Chen Qing.
Standing with her arms behind her back, she gazed at him and Chen i with a sharp, knowing look.
In that instant, Lin Feng realized sothing crucial—this incredibly powerful old lady had just witnessed him gawking at her granddaughter.
And from what he had gathered so far...
She’s also Chen i’s grandmother.
Crap!
Lin Feng stiffened, his body instinctively tensing despite his injuries.
He quickly averted his gaze, pretending as if he hadn’t just been caught admiring Chen i.
However, Chen Qing’s narrowed eyes told him she wasn’t fooled in the slightest.
A tense silence settled in the air. The Frostvenom Python, coiled a short distance away, let out a faint hiss, its icy breath misting in the cold air.
Lin Feng gulped. He wasn’t sure which was more dangerous right now—the massive spirit beast or the old lady standing before him.
Chen Qing finally broke the silence with a scoff.
"Hmph. Brat, it looks like you’ve recovered enough to start having improper thoughts."
Lin Feng felt a chill crawl up his spine. "Senior, I—"
She raised a hand, cutting him off.
"Spare the excuses. Hmph. i’er, why are you even worrying about this fool? You should be focusing on your cultivation, not babysitting so reckless boy who can’t even keep his eyes to himself."
Chen i blushed slightly but remained firm.
"Grandmother, he just went through a life-threatening battle. Of course I’d be worried."
Chen Qing clicked her tongue in annoyance.
"Worried? Hah! A proper cultivator should be more worried about their own future."
She glanced at Lin Feng, her gaze sharp and assessing.
"Well? You’re still alive, aren’t you? You’re not going to waste my granddaughter’s kindness, are you?"
Lin Feng took a deep breath and t her gaze head-on.
He didn’t know why, but even with her overbearing presence, he felt the need to prove himself.
"Of course not," he said firmly. "I won’t waste this opportunity."
Chen Qing studied him for a mont longer before turning away with a huff.
"Hmph. See that you don’t."
As the tension finally eased, Lin Feng released a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding.
He shot Chen i a grateful look, but before he could say anything, the Frostvenom Python suddenly let out a low hiss, its body shifting slightly.
Chen Qing’s expression darkened.
"We’ve lingered long enough. This place isn’t safe, and I’m not interested in dealing with other Wei clan bastards. Brat, if you’re strong enough to stare at my granddaughter, you’re strong enough to move. Get up."
Lin Feng forced himself to his feet, ignoring the lingering soreness in his body.
