Chapter 982: Chapter 982: The Roaming Needle Threads Through the ridians Chapter 982: Chapter 982: The Roaming Needle Threads Through the ridians Uncle Sun’s shock was indescribable.
As a relative of the current Empress Dowager, after entering the Imperial Palace to serve as an Imperial Guard, he broke through his cultivation bottleneck and has been promoted to a 5th tier Martial Ancestor for many years.
Though limited by his age and innate Root Bone talent, Uncle Sun had little hope of breaking through to the 6th tier, but within the 5th tier, his strength was definitely among the top. He held a glorious record of being undefeated against two opponents of the sa tier.
He never imagined that today, he would actually be subdued by the aura of a junior!
The question then was, to what extent had Wang Chen’s Cultivation Level reached?
Uncle Sun was terrified to the extre!
But after all, he was no ordinary person. Even amidst great inner turmoil, he managed to maintain so composure and did not struggle with all his might.
Because Princess Qingyun was still in Wang Chen’s hands!
This 5th tier Martial Ancestor’s mind raced, and he simply gave up resisting, allowing Wang Chen’s oppressive Binding to restrain him.
The next mont, the pressure he endured suddenly lessened.
Indeed!
Uncle Sun let out a huge sigh of relief.
He imdiately signaled to another guard with his eyes, telling him not to resist either.
The latter understood his intention.
The originally tense atmosphere soon eased.
In fact, Wang Chen was only paying a fraction of his attention to the two n. Seeing that they were sensible, he retracted his mana and focused on clearing Princess Qingyun’s ridians.
The human body contains many ridians, with just the Eight Extra ridians comprising eight main channels and several hundred branch channels—if the twelve regular ridians were added, the number would double.
To clear all these ridians is certainly no easy task.
The biggest issue with Princess Qingyun was that her ridians were clogged and solidified by Innate Qi, making the clearing process even more difficult.
Yet, her greatest fortune was in eting Wang Chen.
For vitals like Princess Qingyun’s, the Cultivators and physicians of Cangqing Domain would be helpless and consider it an incurable disease, but in the Haotian Realm, it’s hardly a problem at all, with plenty of solutions at hand.
Wang Chen chose the quickest one—the Roaming Needle Technique.
The so-called Roaming Needle is the practice of concentrating mana into a thread-like needle, then guiding it through the blocked ridians.
The needle thread is extrely fine, and its piercing efficiency is very high; it’s like punching a hole in a sturdy dike, allowing the water to pass and flow, and with repeated scouring, the hole steadily expands until the dike finally breaks down.
This thod is the most ti and effort saving but requires a high level of control ability from the practitioner.
Wang Chen dared use the Roaming Needle Technique because, of course, he was confident.
The mana transford from Spiritual Energy was condensed by him into a long thread that moved swiftly inside Princess Qingyun’s ridians, so agile and quick that it was unbelievable.
At this mont, Princess Qingyun’s brow was tightly furrowed, her pretty face tensely showing signs of agony.
She instinctively tried to struggle, but completely under Wang Chen’s control, she was unable to move at all and could only grit her teeth and endure.
The Roaming Needle Technique must be carried out in one go, so the princess felt as if a sharp thorn was continuously penetrating her internal organs, causing endless pain.
In fact, she could have spoken or cried out in pain, which would have made Wang Chen stop the technique imdiately.
But the princess bit her lip tightly, not making a sound, enduring even as her little face turned deathly pale with pain.
This caused Wang Chen to see her in a new light.
After all, a delicate princess is like a flower in a greenhouse, not having withstood the trials and tribulations, it’s hard to have a strong will.
It can only be said that her determination to pursue the path of cultivation was too strong!
Excellent!
Wang Chen inwardly praised, then increased his effort.
Princess Qingyun was in so much pain she was almost fainting; her whole body was covered in sweat, she was completely unaware, and her face was devoid of color, showing weakness.
The two guards watching from the side felt a tightness in their chests, yet they dared not disturb Wang Chen.
Because they were acutely aware that if Wang Chen intended to harm Princess Qingyun, they were utterly incapable of stopping him.
Ti ticked by, and no one knew how much had elapsed when Wang Chen suddenly withdrew his hands.
Princess Qingyun let out a soft “yng” and swayed as if about to collapse onto the ground, her entire body drained.
Fortunately, Uncle Sun’s quick reflexes allowed him to catch and support her.
He glared at Wang Chen.
Wang Chen was nonchalant, clapping his hands and saying, “Soone co here.”
As soon as his voice fell, two maids erged from the inner chamber, curtsying and saying, “Your Majesty.”
Wang Chen pointed at Princess Qingyun and instructed, “Take her to bathe and change into fresh clothes. Make sure she is well attended to and do not neglect her!”
The maids answered in unison, “Yes!”
Uncle Sun hesitated for a mont but eventually handed Princess Qingyun over to the two maids.
Although Princess Qingyun had a close relationship with him, akin to that of a father and daughter, the propriety of the genders ant there was nothing amiss with Wang Chen’s arrangents.
After the maids escorted Princess Qingyun away, Wang Chen smiled at Uncle Sun and said, “Don’t worry, Her Highness will be fine. Actually, I made a loss here.”
Wang Chen wasn’t speaking hyperbolically, he had genuinely made a mistake.
The mistake was a misjudgnt; Wang Chen had underestimated the amount of Spiritual Energy required to clear Princess Qingyun’s ridians. Although he had completed the task successfully, the costs outweighed the gains!
Disregarding the potential points, the dicinal materials valued at eight hundred thousand Silver were insufficient to compensate for his loss of Spiritual Energy.
Uncle Sun, unaware of the truth, grumpily said, “Don’t worry, as long as Her Highness is unhard, what’s due to you will not be lacking!”
Wang Chen shook his head, too lazy to continue the pointless conversation.
“So things are beyond the understanding of sumr insects!” he thought.
However, Uncle Sun still had words that had been suppressed in his belly to say, “Thousand Household Wang, just what is your Cultivation Level?”
Wang Chen smiled and replied, “That’s irrelevant.”
Uncle Sun was at a loss for words.
Since Wang Chen was unwilling to speak, he couldn’t force the issue, so the trio quietly waited in the front hall.
After half a two hours, when Uncle Sun and the other were getting restless, Princess Qingyun returned with the two maids.
The princess had changed into a new set of robes, and even though they were of a maid’s attire, they couldn’t hide her breathtaking beauty and revitalized appearance.
Compared to before, she seed like a different person, brimming with boundless vitality and vigor!
Uncle Sun was dumbfounded.
It is known that because of her blocked ridians, Princess Qingyun’s constitution was always weak, and daily consumption of various tonics showed no improvent; saying she had the strength of a chicken was no overstatent.
But now, Princess Qingyun appeared robust and healthy to anyone’s eyes!
“Thousand Household Wang.”
Princess Qingyun skipped over to Wang Chen, lifted her skirt and curtsied, saying, “Thank you!”
The princess truly felt the change Wang Chen had brought to her.
Her faith in Wang Chen was now unshakeable!
“Please, be my master!”
Princess Qingyun’s statent caused Wang Chen’s expression to stiffen instantly.
He sensed an invisible change in the ether!
