Cao Mengde Pulls the Wool Over Bibi Dong's Eyes

"Why have you been staring at my hands in a daze?"

"Hurry up and treat me."

Bibi Dong frowned slightly, her expression displeased.

Wasn't Cao Mengde so engrossed because the mature beauty Bibi Dong was too alluring?

Even her hands alone seemed to radiate a certain magic.

After coming back to his senses,

Cao Mengde remained perfectly composed and instead reproached Bibi Dong.

"If I didn't look closely, how could I understand your condition?"

"After examining you for a moment, I've worked out a treatment plan. First, I'll use Soul Power to relieve the cramps in Your Holiness's hands. Second, Your Holiness will need to apply a specially made ointment to be completely cured."

How could Bibi Dong know anything about that?

She only wanted to get better as soon as possible and said impatiently,

"Hurry up and start treating me."

Cao Mengde pointed to the sofa in the examination room, motioning for Bibi Dong to sit down.

After all, it would only be convenient if Bibi Dong sat on the sofa.

Then,

he summoned his Body Martial Soul, the Gynecology Divine Hand.

Each hand grasped one of Bibi Dong's jade hands, circulating Soul Power as he began the treatment.

Ninth Soul Skill.

Healing Hands.

This was under a gu placed by the system, so no matter the illness,

once treatment began, it would take only two and a half minutes.

At that moment,

Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.

The moment Cao Mengde began, the full extent of his Soul Power was exposed.

"Mengde, your Soul Power?"

Cao Mengde knew Bibi Dong was surprised.

He smiled. "Yes, it's risen again."

The calmer Cao Mengde was, the more shocked Bibi Dong became.

"I remember your Soul Power was only level 92 last time. It's only been a few days, and you're already level 95?"

That was what shocked Bibi Dong.

How difficult was cultivation for a Soul Master?

Cultivation was even harder for a Titled Douluo. Some Titled Douluo couldn't raise their Soul Power by a single level even after more than a decade.

Good grief.

How did Cao Mengde make it look like child's play?

As Bibi Dong marveled, time quickly passed.

Sensation began returning to her numb hands, and she could move them freely.

Bibi Dong couldn't help praising him.

"Your medical skills really are superb."

"If I went to the Healing System Soul Masters of Spirit Hall, I doubt they could do anything even about a little cramp in my hands."

Bibi Dong hadn't even gone to her own people yet,

but she couldn't resist complaining about them. That showed just how disappointed she was.

"Your Holiness flatters me. Though I'm outstanding in the Healing System, I can't grow complacent. It's better to keep a low profile."

Bibi Dong admired Cao Mengde more and more.

Not only was he exceptionally gifted and astonishingly fast at cultivation, he also didn't show off.

He really was a good man who knew how to be humble.

It seemed she hadn't misjudged him. She had made the right decision to betroth Hu Liena to him.

"Mengde, I said I would betroth Nana to you, and I'll certainly see it done."

When Bibi Dong had spoken of Hu Liena before, it had been partly on the condition that Cao Mengde treat Tang San.

Now,

she genuinely wanted to marry Hu Liena to Cao Mengde.

And she was determined to bring them together.

Simply because Cao Mengde was too outstanding.

In the future, it would bring Spirit Hall benefits and no harm.

"Carry on with your work. I'll head back first."

Seeing Bibi Dong rise from the sofa, Cao Mengde was immediately displeased.

His face darkened.

"Your Holiness, have you forgotten?"

"You still need to apply ointment to your hands. Otherwise, the cramps could easily return."

Only then did Bibi Dong remember the ointment.

She sat back down on the sofa and placed her scepter beside her.

"Bring me the ointment. I'll apply it now."

Cao Mengde shook his head.

"I have to apply this ointment to you myself."

Bibi Dong was briefly taken aback.

But she soon thought nothing more of it.

After all, Cao Mengde was a Healing System Soul Master. Perhaps the ointment needed a Healing System Soul Master's Soul Power to work.

She didn't give it any more thought.

She held out her jade hands.

"Then apply it."

Seeing Bibi Dong fall into his trap step by step, Cao Mengde suppressed his excitement.

It wasn't time to celebrate yet.

He needed to keep fooling Bibi Dong.

"My ointment is very special. While it's being applied, Your Holiness will need to cover her eyes."

Bibi Dong understood

why Cao Mengde needed to apply it himself.

But being told to cover her eyes immediately unsettled her.

"Why do I need to cover my eyes?"

"Can't I look at this ointment?"

That casual remark

made Cao Mengde nod in agreement at once.

"Your Holiness is truly clever."

"This ointment is specially made. Although it can treat other illnesses, it's extremely irritating to the eyes. I've refined medicine for years, so I've grown used to it."

"But you're different. Your first exposure to it could leave you blind."

Blind?

That frightened Bibi Dong badly.

She knew Cao Mengde's medical skills.

Although she had studied the preparation of medicines herself, she acknowledged that she was no match for Cao Mengde.

For now, she could only accept his advice.

"All right."

"Find something for me. I'll cover my eyes."

Those were the words Cao Mengde had been waiting for.

The next moment,

he took a black lace blindfold out of his system space.

"I specially made this blindfold. It can shield your eyes from the ointment's irritation."

Bibi Dong took it and slowly put it on.

"Is this all right now?"

Looking at Bibi Dong before him,

he saw that the lace-patterned blindfold encircling her eyes made her face even more alluring than before.

Cao Mengde quietly swallowed.

"Your Holiness, here..."

Bibi Dong reached out tentatively, then her hands suddenly froze.

"What is this?"

Cao Mengde immediately explained.

"This is the ointment."

"You see, my ointment comes in solid form, with a lot of powder on it. Your Holiness should keep touching it for a while so the powder can stick to your hands."

Oh?

So that was how it worked.

Bibi Dong couldn't help remarking,

"This solid is really strange."

"But as long as it can cure me, that's all that matters."

After she spoke,

Bibi Dong first reached out with her right hand and tentatively began feeling for the powder on the solid.

After a little while,

Bibi Dong switched to her left hand.

At that moment,

Cao Mengde reminded her,

"What's the rush, Your Holiness?"

"Your right hand isn't covered in powder yet. Keep going..."

Since the powder was extremely fine, it was only natural that Bibi Dong hadn't noticed.

Fortunately, Cao Mengde had reminded her.

She continued with her right hand.

"Mengde, sorry for the trouble. Please keep an eye on it for me."

Cao Mengde nodded.

"I've been watching the whole time. Rest assured, Your Holiness."

Indeed.

How could he not watch?

Those fair, slender jade hands had crystal-clear fingernails.

Combined with the movements of applying the ointment powder, they were downright depraved. The contrast between the two was simply too alluring.

"Yes, just like that."

Cao Mengde adjusted Bibi Dong's movements as he prompted her.

"Switch to your left hand."

Looking at Bibi Dong's noble, sacred face,

Cao Mengde could no longer restrain his restless heart.

He had originally only wanted to take advantage of Bibi Dong's hands, but he couldn't help saying,

"Your Holiness, it would work even better if you took it orally."
