It was not until half an hour later that Gu Shao'an finally stopped circulating his internal energy.
Yet the internal energy within Gu Shao'an's body was now considerably purer than before.
As it flowed, he could even clearly feel a warm, soothing sensation in his meridians, as though he were soaking in a hot spring.
