"Eh? Eh? Eh?"
Fen's face instantly flushed with a faint blush as she sowhat flusteredly lowered her head, searching for sowhere to hide her face.
Nervous and montarily unable to look directly at Chen Qi, she instinctively lay down again, stuffing her head into the hole in the ground.
No, he mustn't see the flowers on my head!
Nurous small pink flowers blood one after another from Fen's hair.
"???"
Chen Qi looked speechlessly at Fen's upturned buttocks and wiggling legs, montarily feeling conflicted about whether to give her another kick.
Did my words really have that much impact... Chen Qi silently wondered, rembering that Fen had said similar things before, but she hadn't reacted like this back then.
Chen Qi's mouth twitched as he said:
"What are you doing?"
Fen said softly and rapidly:
"N-nothing, just feeling like my earth escape technique isn't skilled enough yet, need to practice so more."
The sea breeze gently blew, and even after a minute, Fen still hadn't completed her earth escape practice, her buttocks occasionally wiggling.
"......"
Chen Qi rubbed his sore shoulder again and raised his foot:
"Fen, if you don't co out now, I'm going to give you another kick."
"Go ahead then... wait, no, don't kick !"
Fen had already beco incoherent, speaking confusedly while protecting her buttocks with her hands, anxiously pulling her head out of the hole.
After a full minute of earth escape practice, she had finally successfully cooled down, her brain successfully calming.
Fen suddenly realized - as a powerful Flower Witch, she had completely failed to maintain the dignity befitting a witch!
Her image in front of Chen Qi had completely collapsed!
Elegance, I am a witch, I am the teacher's student, no matter who I face, anyone at all, I must never lose elegance... Fen shook the dirt off her face, then straightened her chest, assuming a noble ceremonial posture.
Must not lose elegance! Especially in front of Qi!
At tis like this, I need to seize the initiative!
She had been provoked by Chen Qi just now, almost forgetting that Chen Qi had ambushed her! And he ambushed her butt!
Standing tall with straight posture, she said in an icy tone:
"Qi, long ti no see, but randomly kicking a witch's butt isn't polite."
Paired with the flowers on her face, Fen actually carried a mysterious and dignified 'witch sister' deanor at this mont.
If he hadn't just witnessed her ostrich performance and the small yellow and pink flowers occasionally sprouting from her head, Chen Qi might have actually been intimidated by her.
"I understand, sorry, won't kick next ti."
Chen Qi said with a sowhat mischievous smile.
Even if you're going to kick, you should at least give a warning first... Fen muttered to herself, hurriedly cleaning the dirt off her face.
Then, blushing, she said extrely softly:
"I missed you too... but, Qi, are you okay? Did you get seriously injured?"
Fen anxiously stared at Chen Qi - externally, he didn't appear to have major injuries.
Which ant he likely had serious internal injuries.
It hurts... Chen Qi frowned:
"How should I put it, while searching for the deep blue fire, I encountered so situations, activated Release twice, which caused significant damage to my body."
Fen asked with a serious expression:
"Two Releases? How much ti between them? Ten minutes, or five minutes?"
"Well, how should I say this..."
Chen Qi thought for a mont before answering:
"Simultaneously."
"Simultaneously!"
You're that fierce... Fen blinked, montarily doubting she heard correctly.
Chen Qi, who had just been promoted, could actually activate two Releases simultaneously!
Wait, why can you master two Release techniques?
Fen glanced around to ensure no one was nearby, then brought Chen Qi to a more hidden, quiet reed thicket.
Then, she turned her head sideways and said coldly and quickly:
"Take... your clothes off, I'll... examine you."
"Alright."
Chen Qi removed his outer hunter coat, then took off his shirt, revealing his injured upper body.
On his exposed skin, one could see shocking charred black marks and cracks, like a battlefield licked by fierce flas.
The wound edges were jagged, so places even revealing bright red muscles and blood vessels, with dark blood beads slowly seeping along these grueso wounds like tiny insects.
Lightning damage... Fen stepped forward, leaning in to carefully observe.
But the damage went far beyond that - on his skin, one could also see so dark bruises and burn marks.
"Don't move, I need to examine deep inside your body..."
"Mhm."
Fen took a deep breath, reached out her hand, and gently placed it on Chen Qi's chest.
Green spiritual energy ripples continuously spread across his chest.
Chen Qi could feel the inside of his body being sensed by Fen's spiritual energy.
"How is it, Fen?"
Chen Qi looked up and asked curiously.
Fen frowned and said:
"Very serious. Your body has been pushed to its limit, with nurous internal injuries that must be treated."
As expected... Chen Qi moved his muscles and bones, a strong ache spreading through him.
Shadow Fla Demon and Ember's Bloom were both frenzied techniques.
During combat, the body's defense chanism of 'pain' response would be severely reduced.
Because of this, only after last night's madness had passed could Chen Qi feel the massive damage to his body.
Going all out feels great in the mont, but it's hell afterward.
Fen pursed her lips:
"But fortunately, it hasn't reached the foundation. So minor surgery plus so dicinal conditioning will fix it."
As she spoke, Fen took out a surgical cloth from her Backpack Card, had No. 2 clean it, then carefully placed it on the ground.
"Lie down on this, face down, and don't move."
Fen said firmly.
"Here? Doing it outdoors?"
Chen Qi asked in surprise:
"Surgery - can this kind of thing really be done outdoors? Can't we go back to the ship to do it?"
Fen said anxiously:
"Ahem, don't you know? In our Goldenfinch Kingdom, humans are also part of nature, so many things can be done outdoors! Whether it's weddings, eating, or sleeping! That includes surgery too!"
"Besides, there are many bounty hunters around here. If we encounter trouble or enemies on the way back, it might worsen your injuries. In your current condition, you must undergo surgery imdiately."
When it ca to treating others, the usually soft Fen always beca particularly firm.
Doing surgery outdoors - this was truly a novel experience... Chen Qi thought for a mont before answering:
"Alright. By the way, Fen, I also got so dicinal herbs. See if they're useful?"
Chen Qi flicked the Backpack Card containing dicinal herbs toward her with a snap of his fingers.
So many dicinal herbs... Fen caught the Backpack Card and examined it.
Then, Chen Qi lay face down obediently on the surgical cloth.
No matter how strong-willed he usually was, on the operating table, he could only obediently listen to the doctor.
Fortunately, Fen was a trustworthy doctor.
Fen took out sterilized gloves, surgical knives, and so specialized injections for treating internal injuries from her Backpack Card.
"It might hurt a bit..."
The needle on the injection in Fen's hand looked more like a drill bit than a needle.
"Mhm."
Chen Qi silently closed his eyes.
"If it hurts, you can cry out - no one will hear..."
As she spoke, Fen suddenly injected the needle into Chen Qi's back.
An intense stabbing pain shot through his spine!
