Seeing him like this, Ma Xiaotao's expression shifted slightly. She grew even more curious about Gu Qingnian as a whole, for she found herself utterly incapable of sensing his physical condition.
Furthermore, as Gu Qingnian ate, she increasingly felt that the piece of Whale Glue was extraordinary. Most importantly, it smelled so good! Ever since a moment ago she had been drooling, feeling like it must taste amazing and delicious.
As the reddish-brown sweat poured from Gu Qingnian, his vital energy and blood surged with matchless vigor. She had seen many people with vigorous life force, and it was not as though none surpassed Gu Qingnian, but she had never seen anyone so vigorous under such circumstances.
Seizing this opportunity, Ma Xiaotao hurriedly finished handling her affairs, then rose and walked with quick strides over to Gu Qingnian's side to support his body.
Then, taking advantage of the moment Gu Qingnian's body began to change, she swiftly took the bowl from his hands and placed it on the ground. With a serious expression, she then said in a deep voice:
"Guard your mind and heart, circulate your soul power to absorb the medicinal efficacy. I am protecting your Dharma for you!"
Gu Qingnian frowned, sensing an ominous premonition. Yet under the present circumstances, he had no choice but to trust her. Giving a slight nod, he began to urge his soul power into motion.
However, his soul power simply could not mobilize that scorching medicinal efficacy. His body temperature continued to climb by leaps and bounds, and this time the high heat no longer triggered any resistance from his Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Torso Bone. Gradually, Gu Qingnian actually felt a trace of trance-like dizziness as memories abruptly surged in his mind-the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue had an aphrodisiac effect!
