Foolishness is Contagious

When a single ox-hair needle pierced Linghu Chong's temple, he died. The cultist's final strike was merely to ensure it.

Ning Zhongze's breath surged, her internal injuries seemingly beyond her ability to suppress.

"Slap. Focus your mind and don't let your thoughts wander," Li Hao said, slapping her on the butt. Men, the greater their ability, the greater their responsibility.

Li Hao moved like lightning, quickly disengaging from the fight and reaching the peak of Hengshan.

Famous mountains and great lakes usually had caves suitable for great heroes to camp at night, but Li Hao didn't go into a cave because he found a house with a decent renovation.

"Monster, you can't do this. The ancestors of Hengshan, your disciple apologizes to you!" A Hengshan disciple in his fifties knelt on the ground, weeping uncontrollably.

On the ground before him lay a pile of spirit tablets – those of past Hengshan sect leaders, elders, and meritorious officials.

Since Ning Zhongze needed to heal, Li Hao naturally had to find a more comfortable place for her. Of course, it was a place he considered comfortable.

This house was nice. Just as he was about to undress Ning Zhongze to begin her healing, he noticed her eyes were filled with pleading. Li Hao followed Ning Zhongze's gaze and saw that it was because the place was filled with spirit tablets of the deceased.

Ning Zhongze was a woman, and she felt very awkward about undressing to heal in a place like this.

Li Hao instantly understood her thoughts. Naturally, he also felt that letting these lonely ghosts watch his woman would make him look like a cuckold. So, he tore down a piece of cloth and bundled up the Hengshan ancestral tablets, throwing them out.

As for the Hengshan disciples guarding the ancestral shrine, Li Hao didn't kill them indiscriminately. He simply used the heavy-handed technique from the Sunflower Acupuncture Hand, ensuring their acupoints wouldn't open for at least 24 hours.

"Yi Lin, you and the little girl guard the entrance. No one is allowed in. If they have any ill intentions, kill them without mercy," Li Hao instructed.

"Understood, husband. Please focus on healing this sister!" Yi Lin was sensible and knew that Ning Zhongze was severely injured, so it wasn't the time to be jealous.

"Mm, just a little." He then flicked his finger from a distance, sealing the mute acupoint of the wailing Hengshan disciple, and re-entered the shrine.

"Damn it, Invincible East, that scumbag, is truly inhuman. How could they do this?" Li Hao activated the Skillful Undressing skill, and in a few moves, Ning Zhongze's chest wound was exposed.

A purplish-black palm print covered her chest perfectly.

"Don't look, it's too ugly." Ning Zhongze blushed. Although this was their second intimate contact, neither had been her intention!

"Don't worry, with me here, I guarantee it won't cause any problems. I'll adjust it for you, and I promise it'll be even more beautiful than before," Li Hao said casually.

Ning Zhongze's condition hadn't worsened, thanks to the Lesser Rejuvenation Pill, and with her profound Internal Energy, there were even faint signs of improvement.

However, Li Hao knew this was an illusion. What could be seen were external injuries; the internal injuries, unseen, were the most fatal.

He noticed that Ning Zhongze's previously firm abdomen was now slightly distended, likely due to ruptured internal organs and internal bleeding.

"Bear with it," Li Hao took out a set of golden needles and inserted them into over a dozen acupoints on her chest, abdomen, and below her abdomen to draw out the stagnant blood first.

"You know medicine." Ning Zhongze saw the dark blood flowing out continuously, and the feeling of chest tightness and shortness of breath immediately lessened.

"Of course. With me here, it's hard for you to die," Li Hao said with a grin.

But inwardly, he was getting anxious. The system's rewards, apart from the Lesser Rejuvenation Pill, were all useless things like sleeping potions and Yin Yang Hehuan Powder. There was nothing that could quickly repair internal injuries!

The Lesser Rejuvenation Pill's efficacy was strong, but taking too much at once would greatly diminish its effect and lead to resistance.

[The host is the idiot.] Just then, the system's voice echoed in Li Hao's mind.

[You damn idiot, why are you insulting me?] Li Hao frowned.

[We're soul-bound. Do you think I don't know when you curse me in your heart?] the system retorted directly.

[Don't you know why I'm cursing you? What are these things? Look at them yourself, what use do they have.] Li Hao was furious, taking out everything from his system space and throwing it on the ground.

[You already have a way to quickly heal her internal injuries, which can not only heal her but also rapidly improve her strength. The host's IQ is worrying!] The system couldn't help but start complaining. Thinking about my peers, they're contracted with princes, crown princes, or at the very least, holy sons and young masters. What kind of thing did I find?

[Uh, System Brother, give me a hint!] Hearing that there was a way, Li Hao's tone immediately softened.

[Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon.]

[No, I've studied the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon for a long time and haven't seen any healing methods. System, be honest, did you give me an incomplete version.]

[I... it's your own comprehension that's insufficient.] The system went into depression. After saying that, it directly shut up and went into hibernation within the system space. I heard idiocy is contagious, so I'd better stay away from this host.

Insufficient comprehension. Li Hao thought carefully. Should I try to comprehend it again?

He had earned 2000 Villain Points for tricking Linghu Chong. That should be enough.

[Use Villain Points to comprehend the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon.] As the Villain Points rapidly depleted, the previously obscure and difficult words and sentences within the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon were slowly understood.

So that's how it is. With all the Villain Points spent, Li Hao also sobered up.

Ning Zhongze looked at Li Hao, who was meditating with his eyes closed, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

Just now, she had seen the little pervert suddenly take out a pile of bottles and jars, and the labels on them had startled her greatly.

What are these? Among the things he carries with him, only the Lesser Rejuvenation Pill is proper; the rest are essential items for seduction and seduction.

These were things ordinary people could barely obtain one of, yet this little pervert had a complete collection, and in large quantities.

Also, that piece of red silk among the bottles and jars looked so familiar. Wasn't that her undergarment that had gone missing last night?

So he really stole it. I remember taking it off when I was bathing, and it hadn't been washed yet.

While Ning Zhongze was lost in thought, Li Hao had already begun to act.

The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon was indeed a marvelous book of intimacy. Not only could it be used for dual cultivation, but it could also heal all injuries, and even allow both parties to achieve mutual progress while relaxing.

"What are you doing?" Ning Zhongze was stunned.

Her gaze shifted from the bottles and jars and the "Mandarin Ducks Playing in Water" (a euphemism for sexual activity) back to Li Hao, only to find him taking off his clothes.

Damn it, I'm severely injured right now, my internal injuries are critical, and I could die at any moment.

At this time, in this situation, was his mind still on those trivial matters?

Is it that I'm beyond saving, and he wants to take advantage while there's still some warmth...
