Chapter 54: Treatment

Revitalization Talisman!

Revitalization Talisman!

Revitalization Talisman!

...

To be honest!

The Revitalization Talisman is really useful!

Relying on the Revitalization Talisman, Xu Mu achieved an achievement that the system does not recognize!

Breaking through nine levels in a row!

This is something that couldn't be experienced even in past dreams.

If they weren't worried about the safety of others, the two of them would probably have to wait until sunset.

After patting themselves with a few Cleanse Talismans to make sure nothing was missed, the two of them hurried back.

"Ning'er, do you know where we encountered these bugs?"

This affectionate address had been used many times before.

Leng Yue Ning frowned and pondered, suddenly her expression changed drastically.

"Oh no! My mother!"

"What's going on?" Xu Mu asked anxiously.

"Yesterday, my mother and I went to a lake near the cave..."

From Leng Yue Ning's account, it was learned that because no demonic beasts had been found in the past two days, their guard was somewhat relaxed, so they sneaked off to a nearby small lake.

That was also the only time they took off their robes.

"No, it can't be?!" Xu Mu thought of a possibility.

Could Leng Shijin also be infected by parasites?

He and Leng Yue Ning had an engagement, so it happened naturally.

But Leng Shijin couldn't!

However, for the time being, he couldn't worry about that much. He had to go back first. Maybe things weren't as bad as he imagined.

"Let me take you there, so we can be faster!"

The two quickly returned to the vicinity of the cave, straightened their clothes, and walked towards the cave entrance.

On the open space at the entrance of the cave, Ouyang Ying was taking care of the two children and the little white wolf. Zhang Shouren pinched his beard, pacing back and forth with an anxious expression.

"Fellow Daoists Xu and Leng, you finally came back! Why did it take you so long this time?"

When he saw the two approaching, Zhang Shouren let out a sigh of relief.

"Well..." The two stammered.

They couldn't possibly say that Leng Yue Ning wanted too much!

Fortunately, Zhang Shouren didn't continue to ask about this.

"You should go in and take a look. Fellow Daoist Lan has encountered some problems!"

...

Xu Mu and Leng Yue Ning's faces changed slightly, showing some unease at the worst possible situation.

"I understand!" Xu Mu reluctantly nodded.

"Zhang Fellow Daoist, you continue to guard outside. I'll take... Yue Ning in to take a look!"

"Alright!" Zhang Shouren didn't notice the change in Xu Mu's address and nodded in agreement.

Xu Mu and Leng Yue Ning quickly entered the cave.

Inside the cave, Ye Yingying, who was examining Lan Shijin, heard footsteps and quickly put the robe back down.

She turned around.

When she saw that it was Xu Mu and Leng Yue Ning, a delighted expression appeared on her pretty face.

"Husband, Yue Ning, you're finally back!"

"How is Fellow Daoist Lan?" Xu Mu asked Lan Shijin, who had her back turned to them.

"I'm fine!" Lan Shijin, who had tidied up her clothes, turned around, her face slightly red.

"Lan sister, why are you still saying such things!" Ye Yingying was angry.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, if it's convenient, let me take a look!" Xu Mu explained the situation of treating Leng Yue Ning, but only mentioned the lower leg.

"This, this, it's different for me!" Lan Shijin, who knew she couldn't hide it, appeared hesitant, like a young girl, completely devoid of her previous grace and nobility.

"Lan sister, let me explain!" Anxious Ye Yingying spoke up directly. "Lan sister's problem is on her back!"

Xu Mu's face suddenly changed.

If it was on the lower back, according to the time calculation, it was probably spreading to some unspeakable areas.

If only they had come back earlier!

Cold Moon Ning obviously also realized it, her face turning red.

It's all because she was too playful!

"Darling, please help Sister Lan with her treatment!"

Ye Yingying foolishly spoke, completely unaware of the seriousness of the situation.

The faces of the three of them almost simultaneously changed.

Xu Mu felt embarrassed, while Cold Moon Ning and Lan Shijin blushed and their hearts raced.

Both of them knew what would happen if Xu Mu agreed.

Lan Shijin only showed a small part to Ye Yingying, so she didn't know the specific location.

If she knew, she might not have said such words.

Xu Mu hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Yingying, you and Yue Ning go outside first. I'll help Fellow Daoist Lan, cough, take a look!"

Lan Shijin, who was in her fifties, lowered her head and remained silent, looking helpless and nervous like a little girl.

Cold Moon Ning looked at Xu Mu, her eyes filled with words unsaid. Before she could gather her courage to speak, Ye Yingying pulled her out.

"Yue Ning, let's wait outside. My darling never lies, he will definitely heal Sister Lan!"

"..."

After the two left, Xu Mu spoke, "How about this, Fellow Daoist Lan, can you set up an illusion array again?"

"Mm!"

Lan Shijin's voice was as soft as a mosquito. She quickly set up an illusion array.

"Xu Fellow Daoist, you just need to handle the parts that I can't clean up. I can take care of the rest myself!"

Lan Shijin still held on to her last bit of resistance.

"I understand! Don't worry!"

Xu Mu also didn't want to complicate their relationship too much.

But the current situation didn't allow him to make any other choices.

Let's just treat it as a normal treatment.

After Lan Shijin was ready, Xu Mu took out a flying knife, circulated his spiritual power, and lifted his robe.

The entire back was swollen, completely invaded by parasites. In some areas, the parasites were even visible.

Compared to Cold Moon Ning, Lan Shijin was obviously much worse.

Mainly because it had been going on for too long!

How embarrassing!

The scene in front of Xu Mu made his scalp tingle.

Cultivators were indeed powerful, but the bugs in the cultivation world were not to be trifled with.

Fortunately, both of them were cultivators. Otherwise, with the terrifying reproductive ability of these parasites, they would have infested the entire body in no time.

They had been smooth sailing for the first month of their journey, but unexpectedly encountered fourth-order demonic beasts and these strange bugs later on.

Indeed, they couldn't relax for a moment before truly reaching the Liyang Sect.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, if there are any abnormalities, please let me know in time!" Xu Mu reminded.

"Mm!"

Lan Shijin nodded lightly, her face already as red as a September apple, facing the ground.

Although it was for the sake of treatment, and the parasite-infested back had no aesthetic appeal whatsoever, the complicated relationship still struck like a thunderbolt.

Numb and powerless!

Xu Mu took a deep breath, the knife in his hand glimmering like water, gentle, steady, swift, and smooth, as if dancing on his fingertips. He cut open the swollen skin, picking out the wriggling parasites with lightning speed, relying on his keen sense of blood and qi.

If one didn't consider that this was a person, the scene was quite relieving.

It was also fortunate that Xu Mu had achieved Body Refining and reached the Blood Exchange stage. He could sense the parasites' positions through his blood and qi, otherwise, without the Foundation Building stage, it would be impossible to completely remove them.

With the terrifying reproductive ability of these bugs, if they couldn't be completely eliminated at once, they would quickly spread throughout the body again.

Apart from picking them out, there was another more brutal method, which was to directly remove the infected flesh.

But the cost of this method was too high!

Given Lan Shijin's current condition, she wouldn't be able to survive.

It could only be said that the two of them were quite lucky!

After Xu Mu's smooth operation, the parasites on her back were quickly cleaned. After careful inspection and confirmation that there were no remnants, they began to move towards the lower wounds.

It wasn't until the lower leg that they were completely cleaned.

Xu Mu wiped away his sweat and let out a sigh of relief.

Next were the connecting areas. He cleaned the hair, used his fingers to sense, and found the parasites' positions.

He patted a purification talisman, removing excess moisture.

After the surface was completely cleaned, Xu Mu applied medicine to the wounds and used a rejuvenation talisman to heal them.

But there was still one more location.

"Fellow Daoist Lan!" Xu Mu called out.

Lan Shijin didn't respond, she just silently opened the door.

"It's just a normal treatment, don't think too much!"

Relying on his control over blood and qi in the Blood Exchange stage, Xu Mu gathered a large amount of blood and qi on his index finger, using it to enhance his perception.

...

Originally, he thought one finger would be enough, but in the end, he had to use his whole hand.

When it was all over, the two soundproof talismans turned to ashes!
