I Think You Should Take a Bath First

There was no intimate physical contact.

Bai Luo had no interest in taking advantage of her that way.

His thin lips moved slightly as he slowly uttered a single word:

"Release."

The phantom behind him held an ear of wheat and descended upon Wu Feng.

Pale golden light, like a silkworm cocoon, instantly enveloped Wu Feng's entire body.

A force that left her unable to even consider resisting poured into her body.

The life energy within the room grew much denser as well.

Even Ning Tian, watching from the side, felt refreshed and at ease.

Ning Tian watched everything unfold, her eyes shining with astonishment.

As the young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Tian had seen quite a few healing-type Soul Masters.

Yet she had never seen a healing-type Soul Master like Bai Luo.

He did not seem to be administering simple treatment.

It was more like he was wielding some indescribable authority.

Over time, the Soul-Eating Snake Venom inside Wu Feng had nearly fused with her Soul Power.

But the Power of Abundance flooding into her body did not care about that.

The Soul-Eating Snake Venom was forcibly separated from the Soul Power it had already fused with by a force that Douluo Continent's theories could barely explain.

If those top-tier healing-type Soul Masters witnessed this, their entire understanding of the world would probably be overturned.

This simply made no sense!

That was right, it truly made no sense.

But unfortunately.

The power within Bai Luo did not belong to Douluo Continent in the first place. Why should it follow Douluo Continent's rules?

"Done."

Ning Tian had thought she would need to wait quite a while.

Yet after about the time it took to burn an incense stick, Bai Luo withdrew the power covering Wu Feng's body.

He recalled his martial soul, his expression as calm as if he had handled the simplest of matters.

Rather than dealt with a troublesome snake venom that had left countless top-tier healing-type Soul Masters helpless.

"That's it?"

Ning Tian was somewhat stunned.

It was not that she reacted slowly; the process had simply been too easy.

It was far beyond what she had expected.

In her view, even if Bai Luo could deal with the Soul-Eating Snake Venom within Wu Feng, he would surely need to put in considerable effort.

Yet Bai Luo had completely eliminated the Soul-Eating Snake Venom from Wu Feng's body in less than the time it took to burn an incense stick.

He had done it as casually as eating or drinking.

"What?"

"Could it be that Miss Ning thinks I solved it too easily and wants her consultation fee back?"

Bai Luo looked utterly wary.

He was not short on money, but once something was in his hands, how could he possibly give it back?

Hearing Bai Luo's words and seeing his guarded expression, Ning Tian's face darkened.

Was the dignified young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect really the sort of person who would go back on her word over two million Gold Soul Coins?

"Of course not."

Ning Tian forced out a smile, barely suppressing her urge to complain.

At the same time.

Wu Feng, who had been sitting cross-legged on the bed, slowly opened her eyes.

She clenched her fists, seemingly still adjusting.

"How do you feel?"

Ning Tian hurriedly asked with concern.

Wu Feng raised a hand, and a wisp of flame surged forth.

Her expression was filled with excitement.

She could use her Soul Power again!

"Young Sect Master, I'm better!"

Wu Feng was overwhelmed with excitement.

Having experienced being unable to use Soul Power, regaining the ability to command it felt incomparably wonderful!

Even Wu Feng, who had always been so proud and aloof, could not hide her joy.

Though she had kept quiet before so that Ning Tian would not worry.

With Wu Feng's own prideful nature, how could she possibly accept becoming an ordinary person who could no longer cultivate?

When even the top healing-type Soul Masters at Shrek Academy had been unable to do anything about the Soul-Eating Snake Venom inside her.

Wu Feng had come close to despair more than once.

Fortunately, Heaven had not completely blocked off her path.

She could still continue down the road of cultivation!

Thinking of this, Wu Feng looked at Bai Luo and sincerely said:

"Thank you!"

The favorable impression she held of him rose considerably.

Bai Luo before her looked more and more pleasing to the eye.

"I took the consultation fee, so naturally I had to do the job. That's only right."

Bai Luo waved his hand.

It was not as though he had treated her for free. He had collected a full two million Gold Soul Coins as his consultation fee.

Wu Feng did not need to thank him so profusely.

And besides that.

As a supporting character with some presence in the original story, removing the Soul-Eating Snake Venom from Wu Feng's body had also brought Bai Luo a decent return.

This treatment had been an absolutely profitable deal for Bai Luo.

But although that was what he thought.

Wu Feng and Ning Tian clearly did not see it that way.

From their perspective.

If not for Bai Luo, Wu Feng's path as a Soul Master would have been completely ruined.

She would have spent the rest of her life as an utterly ordinary person.

And Ning Tian would have lived with guilt for the rest of her life because of it.

To them, two million Gold Soul Coins were far from enough to repay this favor.

Ning Tian solemnly promised:

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will remember what Physician Bai did for us today."

"If you ever need help in the future, come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and find me."

"As long as it is within my power, Ning Tian will never refuse."

Though Wu Feng could not represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

She also expressed her gratitude in her own name.

She crossed her arms over her chest, let out a haughty snort, and waved her small pink fist, which was not actually very intimidating.

"If anyone comes to cause trouble at your clinic in the future, come find me. I'll stand up for you."

In Wu Feng's eyes, although Bai Luo's medical skills were indeed exceptional, he was merely a healing-type Soul Master too weak to even truss a chicken.

She had no idea of his terrifying strength, which had allowed him to casually slaughter everyone in the count's estate.

Nor did she know that this seemingly "weak" young man was Calamity Ancestor, the infamous leader of the Life Association in the underground world.

Otherwise, she would never have said such a thing.

Bai Luo chuckled but did not explain.

Instead, he said with a hint of mischief in his voice:

"Rather than that, I think Miss Wu Feng should probably take a bath first."

"Hm?"

Only after Bai Luo said this did the two, still immersed in the joy of the Soul-Eating Snake Venom being removed from Wu Feng's body, suddenly realize something.

Ning Tian wrinkled her delicate little nose, her brows knitting almost imperceptibly.

However, considering the feelings of the proud girl beside her, she did not make it too obvious.

Wu Feng likewise felt the sticky discomfort on her body, as well as the foul odor drifting through the air.

She lowered her head to look.

Her exposed fair skin had somehow become covered in black impurities that gave off a nauseating stench.

They were clearly the Soul-Eating Snake Venom expelled from her body, along with some metabolic waste that had been cleaned out in the process.

"Blech!"

Wu Feng felt sick.

Though she usually had a fiery temper, she was still a girl who cared about cleanliness.

How could she accept looking this filthy?

"Ah!"

Wu Feng let out a scream!

It was piercingly loud.

Fortunately, the house was well soundproofed.

Otherwise, by the next day, all sorts of speculation about "a girl screaming in the Little Divine Physician's room" would probably have spread across the entire continent.
