"Simple."
Yao Wan said, "Can you run Zhou Tian in front of me and show me?"
Although Nalan Yanran didn't know what Yao Wan was going to do, he still honestly chose to do it, then sat down cross-legged in the guest room, and then closed his eyes.
The turquoise Wind Attribute Dou Qi lingered around her, then penetrated into her pores, merged into her meridians, and covered her limbs.
This is an action that Nalan Yanran has repeated countless times in the years since she embarked on the path of cultivation. It has almost become a subconscious action of her cultivation, and naturally there is no need for Yao Wan to remind her.
But before Nalan Yanran could completely sink her mind into practice, Yao Wan's fingertips gently touched the back of her neck.
"Abandon running Dazhui, and run Tianchi first during the week, then go forward and cross the sun."
Nalan Yanran heard Yao Wan's voice, which was completely different from the usual jokes. It was calm and refreshing.
It's like a clear spring in the mountains in midsummer, gurgling through the restless heart, soothing the disturbing heat and touch, making you feel relaxed and happy.
Yao Wan's words quickly brought Nalan Yanran back to his senses, but his closed eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and there was some hesitation in this moment.
Directly changing the original exercise route of Dou Qi... that's easy to say.
Nalan Yanran knows very well what the consequences will be if one makes a wrong step and violates the purpose of the practice.
It can range from going crazy and becoming possessed, to falling into a state of decline, or at the most severe, having all my meridians cut off, and becoming a cripple who can no longer practice, or simply dying suddenly————
But if it really comes to that point, a sudden death would be the so-called better ending.
There was no room in her heart for her to think too much, so Nalan Yanran finally made her choice without hesitating for too long.
"I believe it, but if I die, I can blame myself for being too stupid and choosing to believe you——"
With his eyes closed tightly, Nalan Yanran just spoke at the last moment while following the advice given by Yao Wan just now and guiding the Dou Qi in the body to different meridians.
"... Hmm."
Yao Wan just responded in an extraordinarily soft voice, as if he didn't want to disturb her, and just stood beside her, waiting for her movements.
"...!"
The original Dou Qi route was actively disrupted by himself, and the restless Dou Qi began to conflict with other Dou Qi in the meridians in Nalan Yanran's body, causing Waves of tingling sensations that seemed to be absent but quickly became strong, as if Cattle Hair Steel Needles had pierced her meridians. She subconsciously clenched her silver teeth, frowned slightly, and endured the tingling sensation like needles without making any sound.
Cultivation is basically sailing against the current, so naturally she can endure the hardship.
What's more, how could she only suffer this little pain in her life?
Yao Wan looked at Nalan Yanran's elegant willow eyebrows frowned slightly, her white cheeks were gradually clenched, and her thin pink lips did not leak a sound after all, and she felt a little more admiration in her heart.
This is probably one of the reasons why she doesn't hate Nalan Yanran so much. She has never been a pampered Young Sect Master. Her position as Yun Lan Sect Young Sect Master was not obtained effortlessly after becoming a disciple of Yun Yun, but she won it with the sharp sword in her hand.
Perhaps, it was precisely because of this temper that she could not tolerate sand in her eyes, which eventually led to things like Three-Year Agreement.
"... Ugh...!"
But no matter how tenacious one is mentally, it is not easy to endure the pain in the meridians like a knife.
After almost a stick of incense, Nalan Yanran gritted his teeth and endured the initial pain caused by the retrograde meridians, and controlled the Dou Qi in his body according to the modification plan just given by Yao Wan to gradually form a new orbit. Soul Division could not help but let out a faint whimper after all.
But soon, she seemed to have found the trick to endure this kind of pain. The low whimpering quickly disappeared, replaced by Liu Ye's brows that were getting tighter and tighter, and she was biting her lips involuntarily.
Yao Wan had been waiting for the moment when she couldn't hold on any longer. She originally thought that the pain point of the meridians being disturbed Nalan Yanran could only hold back a stick of incense at most, and she almost couldn't hold on anymore.
When she was no longer able to continue the Zhoutian movement on her own, naturally she could only complete the next process.
Yao Wan has no objection to this. After all, this is something that he promised Nalan Yanran, so what if he needs a little more patience?
However, Nalan Yanran's performance has indeed exceeded Yao Wan's initial expectations.
Nalan Yanran was able to survive a stick of incense on his own, which actually didn't matter. After all, Yao Wan had been mentally prepared for it early in the morning.
However, Nalan Yanran soon told Yao Wan with her own actions that she had made a mistake.
Nalan Yanran, who had begun to hum in pain after burning the incense, quickly adjusted himself, then bit his lip, not to make even a single sound.
It is not just as simple as holding back the pain and not shouting out. In Yao Wan's mental perception, Nalan Yanran's Soul Power, under the stimulation of severe pain, is like a candle in a stormy night, very weakly emitting its own light and heat, swaying in the wind of the rainy night, as if it will be blown out by the stronger wind the next moment.
But no matter how strong the wind and rain were, and how weak the wisp of Zhu Huo was, it was never extinguished.
No matter how weak the Soul Power is, it is pulling the Dou Qi in the body and runs around the sky along a completely different meridians.
As time went by, Dou Qi's chaos was gradually clarified step by step by Nalan Yanran himself, and guided it into the mainstream of the meridians.
She exhaled the turbid air, adjusted her heavy breathing, and returned to calm, leaving only the mess after the meridians were reversed, and the faint and subtle tingling sensation was still lingering.
But compared to these, Nalan Yanran is still more willing to look forward - she did it, and she did it without relying on anyone's help. She only needed to do it by herself - she will not be a villain or a waste who follows the crowd.
And she did feel the changes that Zhou Tian gradually brought to herself after her reversal——
Until this moment, Nalan Yanran suddenly felt a faint coolness, like a herbal medicine, flowing through his body like water, and injected into his body, like a clear spring in the mountains, soothing the remaining tingling sensation in his meridians.
