Chapter 152: Why did you treat his wounds through his clothes?_2
It was normal to be hindered by a body cultivator in the Foundation Establishment period,
At this moment, the dragon fish only found it slightly surprising and dared not to imagine the deepest fear imprinted in its blood memory.
But,
As Chen Yi took the second Gold Body Pill and turned golden all over,
A long-forgotten memory in the dragon fish's bloodline revived instantly,
This was their race's most terrifying nemesis—a magic-immune Golden Body!
Though the person in front of it had not matured to such a terrifying degree, the newly awakened dragon fish had not yet returned to its heyday either.
At this point, it already intended to leave. Despite having an 80% chance of winning a head-on fight, it wasn't worth it.
With more of its memories gradually returning, it knew how to grow quickly.
The risks at its current weak stage did not warrant such a gamble.
Finally, when Chen Yi exploded with Vajra Eight Steps, his body transformed into golden light, tracing an excellent, mystic arc,
The pupils of the dragon fish constricted sharply.
Without any hesitation, it activated its secret skill, vanished from its place in a flash,
And reappeared ten miles away!
Life Flash!
One of the Colorful Dragonfish Clan's divine techniques!
However, with its current power, using such a divine technique basically meant it couldn't use it again for a number of years,
As it depleted its bloodline's origin too much.
The reason it ran so decisively was that it recognized the mysterious arc traced by Chen Yi's Vajra Eight Steps. Back in ancient times, it was something extremely terrifying for their Colorful Dragonfish Clan's Life Flash technique,
It didn't know what this technique was called, but it knew that in the realm of Space Laws,
Their spatial teleportation was completely subdued by the technique of the Golden Body Human Clan.
Many members of the superior Colorful Dragon Clan, on the spatial battlefield, dominated with their innate spiritual power, yet they were often killed by these Golden Body Humans.
These Golden Body Humans, once fully cultivated, could negate some spiritual power skills, and also possess terrifying stepping techniques and physical strength. They were naturally the bane of their Colorful Dragon Clan!
Seeing the enemy vanish instantly, Chen Yi heaved a sigh of relief,
The ancient records were right: the Colorful Dragonfish Clan, before transforming into dragons, are extremely timid and flee at the slightest hint of danger.
In the previous encounter, Chen Yi had almost exhausted over half of his Golden Body Energy,
If the enemy had not fled and insisted on a fight,
Chen Yi could only apologize to Song Chengcheng and hide in the Martial World. He could survive, but Song Chengcheng would definitely die.
Luckily, the dragon fish was timid.
Chen Yi had no idea that the heritage he carried was precisely the bane of their Colorful Dragon Clan.
Seeing the dragon fish flee, Chen Yi didn't utter another word. He immediately turned around, picked up Song Chengcheng, and escaped on a Flying Boat.
This time, his physical exhaustion was considerable. Without needing to engage the dragon fish in direct combat, Chen Yi decided to use mana to flee while properly recovering his Golden Body Energy to be ready for any potential battles.
Only after they had flown three hundred miles,
Did the sky darken.
Seeing that Song Chengcheng's wounds hadn't substantially improved, Chen Yi knew he shouldn't delay. Even though he had saved her internal organs,
The flesh and bones near her abdominal wound couldn't be frozen for too long.
The Cold Poison couldn't stay in her body overnight.
Chen Yi effortlessly found a cave mansion belonging to a first-tier Dragon Cat Demon Beast. The little sand marten skillfully and quickly cleared it out.
Chen Yi took Song Chengcheng inside and set up the Nightmare Dark Curtain Array at the cave's entrance.
"Daoist Song, we're basically safe now. We'll heal here tonight. Your wounds can't be delayed."
Song Chengcheng blinked, looking at Chen Yi, forcing herself to appear calm, and said:
"Daoist Chen, thank you for saving my life twice. Tonight, I am in your hands. I know you're a physician. There's no need to fret over etiquette. I understand."
After finishing her words, she closed her eyes again, pretending to focus all her attention on her meridians,
However, her slightly trembling eyelashes unintentionally betrayed her nervousness at the moment.
Chen Yi gave a silent laugh, shaking his head. Although Daoist Song was no longer young, she was quite naive in certain aspects, still bearing the mentality of a little girl.
He gently untied the white dress covering Song Chengcheng; revealing only her abdominal wound, without exposing anything else.
The previous occasion was an emergency, Chen Yi had no choice. After all, healing through clothes doesn't yield the best therapeutic effect,
As for the Cold Poison that affected the internal organs—with the mana of a late-stage Foundation Establishment practitioner—treating it was very difficult for Chen Yi. He couldn't let the two layers of Song Chengcheng's robes hinder his treatment.
But now, things were different. Her internal organs were stable; only a bit of the stubborn Cold Poison was left in her flesh wound. It wouldn't claim her life within a few hours.
This time, revealing only the wound was sufficient. If he exposed more, even if it could be explained,
Chen Yi was not the kind of person to take advantage of others' difficulties.
While placing his hand near Song Chengcheng's wound to input mana and heal her, Chen Yi pondered the next steps.
Feeling that her dignity was still intact, Song Chengcheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chen Yi is indeed trustworthy!"
Then, she immersed her mind into her meridians to combat the Cold Poison with all her might.
Unbeknownst to her, she felt a small pang of loss in her heart.
...
The night passed without any words,
At dawn of the next day, Chen Yi woke from meditation.
After a night of full-on treatment, Song Chengcheng's wounds were all healed, but not without taking a heavy toll on Chen Yi.
