Chapter 429: Newcor number 429
Although the two eagles were siblings, they didn’t look at all alike—their bodies were entirely black, but their heads had distinctly different colors: one was white, the other black.
Thus, Ye Jiu nad the white one Ye Bai and the black one Ye Hei.
Great, the nas were perfect.
He took a quilt from the bed and spread it on the floor for the eagles to sleep on, then Ye Jiu contentedly lay down on his own bed.
Perhaps it was because she had been abducted the previous night, but Sikong Mo, who had insisted on taking her out for martial training the past two evenings, did not co tonight.
Glancing at the sky outside, Ye Jiu figured he probably wouldn’t be coming tonight.
So, Ye Jiu excitedly got out of bed and walked over to the two eagles, crouching in front of them and saying, “Ye Bai, Ye Hei, can you two go out and guard the door for , and not let anyone in?”
He had thought it would be quite difficult to make them obey, but to his surprise, as soon as the words left his mouth, they stood up and headed toward the door.
Ye Jiu quickly went to open the door, and after letting the two eagles out, he excitedly slamd the door shut.
Then, Ye Jiu ran back to the bed, sat down cross-legged, and swallowed the Marrow Cleansing Pill given by Yuan Jun Taoist without hesitation.
No sooner had he taken it than a warm current surged toward his Dantian, then burst forth from within and coursed throughout his body, cleansing his ridians.
The sensation was sowhat uncomfortable, his body burning hot as if on fire, but knowing it resulted from the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Ye Jiu dared not make any hasty movents. Instead, he controlled the flow of energy using the thod taught by Sikong Mo, letting it circulate within him.
Gradually, Ye Jiu entered a ditative state oblivious to his surroundings, focusing solely on directing the flow to cleanse his ridians. The discomfort lessened, and his body started to feel more relaxed.
When the flow of energy in his body finally subsided, Ye Jiu opened his eyes and realized it was already bright daylight outside.
Ye Jiu felt as though not much ti had passed, yet it was evident that a good part of the night had gone by.
Looking out at the dawn, Ye Jiu unwound his legs and was about to get out of bed when a foul odor assaulted his nostrils.
He imdiately knew sothing was wrong, recalling what had happened when he took the antidote before.
Indeed, a glance at his clothes confird his fears—the original color was almost indistinguishable, mixed with a sticky, greasy expulsion of toxins from his pores, unbearably stinky.
No wonder he felt so much lighter—all the expelled toxins probably weighed at least two taels.
Ye Jiu looked at his own body with disgust.
He reached out slowly, peeled off the oily clothes from his body and tossed them to the floor, then put on a fresh garnt before daring to step outside, calling out, “Wenzheng, are you up?”
Ye Jiu opened the door only to find the two new friends he had just acquired last night were still standing guard at the door, tails in and out, their massive eagle faces full of seriousness and vigilance.
Ye Wenzheng, hearing Ye Jiu’s voice, ca out yawning from the house and stumbled back a few steps in shock upon seeing the two giant eagles standing in front of Ye Jiu’s door, “Little… Miss, what’s going on here?”
anwhile, the little beggar also followed him out.
The little one had no idea what these creatures were, so there wasn’t a trace of fear on his face, only curiosity, with his big eyes rolling around nonstop.
