Chapter 1281: Chapter 1277: Tornt (Part 3)

“I’m treating my injuries.” Song Xiaodong said this while continuing to put on clothes.

“Treating injuries? Why are you taking off your clothes?”

“Nonsense, with so many wounds, if I don’t take off my clothes they’ll stick to the wounds, how could I treat them?”

Even though Song Xiaodong was beaten terribly, he still showed no courtesy to Qingluan.

“Hmph!” Qingluan turned her head, ignoring him.

Song Xiaodong took off his shirt and pants, and seeing the wounds on his legs and torso, he couldn’t help but frown. These long gashes were all skin-deep, and the last two on his thighs even had the flesh turning up.

Taking a deep breath, Song Xiaodong skillfully started treating his wounds with the silver needles in his hand.

When he was being beaten, Song Xiaodong had already considered his back would be hard to reach, so he made sure the injured areas were in places easy to handle.

Over half an hour later, Song Xiaodong finished treating his wounds. These were all surface wounds, so they weren’t too serious. However, Song Xiaodong was very thorough in his treatnt, as letting his family see them later would surely upset them.

He didn’t want them to feel sad for him; as a man, he would only give them happiness.

“Hey, put on so clothes!” Qingluan turned her head again, only to see Song Xiaodong wearing just underwear, her eyes glaring imdiately.

“What do you think is the point of wearing this?” Song Xiaodong shrugged at his tattered clothing. Earlier, his clothes stuck to the wounds, forcing him to tear them off; otherwise, the wounds would be hurt again.

Now the clothes were all torn and couldn’t be worn at all.

“Shaless!” Qingluan said hatefully, then sneered. “Take your ti to recover, so it’ll be more enjoyable when I beat you again.”

“Whatever you want.” Song Xiaodong felt at ease now, knowing Qingluan would definitely try to torture him sohow, so he wouldn’t beg for rcy.

However, for this entire day, Qingluan didn’t tornt him anymore. She mostly sat by the stone, lost in thought, not even glancing back at Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong took the opportunity to focus on breath regulation, hoping to heal his wounds quickly so he could face Qingluan’s other tricks.

As night fell, the surroundings grew darker, and when nothing could be seen anymore, Qingluan got up and walked straight over to Song Xiaodong.

“Dang, she waited till it was dark so she couldn’t see my body when she ca over.” Song Xiaodong imdiately guessed the reason.

However, to Song Xiaodong’s surprise, Qingluan didn’t harm him; she just walked past him and went into the bushes.

Song Xiaodong shrugged, not bothering with her. “Soldiers co, we block them; water rises, we cover it with earth.” Whatever trouble cos, he’ll just face it. Anyway, Song Xiaodong would never think of helping her lift the Restriction; at the very least, it makes her cautious and prevents her from being too harsh.

After a while, Qingluan ca back but still ignored him until nearly midnight when she approached and directly imposed the Restriction on Song Xiaodong.

“Are you making

suffer alongside you?” Song Xiaodong still asked Qingluan with a grin.

“Hmph.” Qingluan snorted coldly, then sat aside, her expression already faintly painful.

Song Xiaodong too showed signs of suffering, but still teased Qingluan here and there, using such a thod to ease his own pain.

The experience over these two days was entirely the sa, leading Song Xiaodong to speculate that Qingluan didn’t actually know much about the Restriction thods. She just used her True Qi to forcefully seal his True Qi, causing him pain with her own.

This thod was overly simple and crude, and only because the difference in their cultivation level was so vast did Song Xiaodong suffer so.

But with the previous experience, Song Xiaodong found it less unbearable the second ti.

Crucially, Song Xiaodong’s True Qi was sealed, but only the True Qi in his ridians was sealed.

anwhile, a trace of True Qi slowly erged from his Dantian, linked to an epiphany he once had watching a sunrise.

As for why or how it worked, Song Xiaodong didn’t currently understand. It was like his Dantian was a small sun, always emitting light and heat. Normally, when his True Qi was abundant, it wasn’t noticeable. Now, with his ridians sealed, this trait beca visible.

This new True Qi wasn’t much, but it was still usable for Song Xiaodong. He mobilized this erging True Qi to resist Qingluan’s True Qi within him.

Though his True Qi was quickly depleted, it sowhat countered Qingluan’s True Qi, diminishing it bit by bit. And his True Qi kept replenishing, slowly wearing it down.

Despite the intense pain, Song Xiaodong found joy in this thod, as it was the best way to train True Qi, as Lin Feng ntioned in the booklet he gave Song Xiaodong.

That night, they both fell asleep exhausted. The next morning, Qingluan kicked Song Xiaodong awake again.

Song Xiaodong attacked Qingluan without a word.

“Hmph! Courting death!” Qingluan disdainfully countered with a few moves, sending Song Xiaodong flying.
