Chapter 234: How About A Maid?
How About A Maid? . . .
Even for an ordinary person, a Pei-Yuan Dan possessed remarkable healing properties capable of reviving someone from the brink of death. Yet, Cha-Eun Xiao had administered an even more potent Supreme Pei-Yuan Dan to the girl, expecting it to thoroughly invigorate her body. Although he realized it might not result in an instant recovery, he had hoped it would stabilize her condition.
However, to his astonishment, the dan bead\'s efficacy seemed to dissipate almost instantly, and the change in the girl\'s appearance was scarcely discernible. Had Cha-Eun Xiao not been closely observing her, he might not have noticed any improvement at all.
Frustrated with the unexpected turn of events, Cha-Eun Xiao muttered to himself, "What in the world... If I hadn\'t thoroughly examined your body beforehand, I might have believed you were a super grandmaster or something of that sort. It\'s baffling that a Supreme Pei-Yuan Dan failed to mend your mortal body. How peculiar."
Since the Supreme Pei-Yuan Dan had proven ineffective, there was no point in administering it again. Cha-Eun Xiao retrieved two crystal-blue water drops from his Water Space and inserted them into the girl\'s mouth alongside another Pei-Yuan Dan bead. These two components worked in tandem to rejuvenate her life force and begin the process of healing her injuries. Gradually, her breathing became more regular, and although she remained unconscious, she was now on a path to survival.
Relieved that something had finally gone as planned, Cha-Eun Xiao refused to rest. He took a deep breath, placing one hand on the girl\'s dantian and the other on her back. Channeling the East-rising Purple Qi into both of his hands, he introduced pure qi into the girl\'s Jing and Mai meridians step by step. As he focused on this intricate procedure, he sensed a shift in the rain outside—the downpour was gradually subsiding.
However, an unexpected obstacle presented itself during the process. As he infused his spiritual energy into the girl\'s body, it inexplicably dissipated as though absorbed into a void. Puzzled and growing increasingly concerned, Cha-Eun Xiao wondered, "Could I have been mistaken about her?"
He conducted a thorough examination of the girl\'s Jing and Mai once more, but the result remained consistent: there was no trace of spiritual power within her. Her body seemed lifeless, resembling nothing more than decaying wood.
Perplexed but determined to save her life, Cha-Eun Xiao resolved to temporarily set aside his inquiry into her peculiar condition. "I should prioritize keeping her alive," he decided, his concern for the girl overriding his curiosity about her mysterious state.
Cha-Eun Xiao harnessed the power of the East-rising Purple Qi, transforming it into two concentrated streams of pure energy. Unlike the gentle introduction of qi he had performed earlier, he now converged the energy into a single, needle-like stream. With force, he drove it into the girl\'s Jing and Mai meridians, meticulously repairing them.
To sustain this intensive procedure, Cha-Eun Xiao periodically supplemented the girl with additional Pei-Yuan Dan beads and crystal-blue water drops, ensuring the continuous restoration of her Jing and Mai.
For three hours, he relentlessly worked on repairing her meridians, meticulously nursing her back to health. Although the girl remained unconscious, her breathing had grown steadier, an encouraging sign of improvement. Cha-Eun Xiao, on the other hand, was utterly exhausted, his body drenched in perspiration.
He couldn\'t help but exclaim, "My goodness! I\'ve never exerted myself this much while treating someone. And she\'s just an ordinary girl with no cultivation experience. Why is it so demanding this time? Back when I was only at the beginning levels of the Grade of Diyuan, I managed to heal Uncle Song\'s Golden Mai Palm wound without feeling this fatigued. This is truly perplexing!"
Fatigue had taken its toll on him, leaving him puzzled and drained. He wiped his sweat-drenched forehead and recuperated his own vitality by consuming some Pei-Yuan Dan beads. The Supreme Pei-Yuan Dan was particularly effective for him now, requiring only two beads to make a complete recovery. He then proceeded to mend the girl\'s organs, utilizing five Pei-Yuan Dan beads and ten crystal-blue water drops. This stark contrast in the amount of aid required was bewildering to him, considering that the girl was a regular person.
Although Cha-Eun Xiao had invested substantial resources into her recovery, she remained unconscious, lying quietly on the bed. However, her delicate eyelids twitched, her expression contorting in discomfort. This subtle response brought relief, as it indicated she was not on the brink of death but rather in a critical condition. For Cha-Eun Xiao, this sign was highly encouraging.
He didn\'t allow himself a moment\'s respite and immediately began a meticulous examination of the girl\'s broken bones, initiating the painstaking process of mending each one. However, with more broken bones than intact ones in her body, mending them individually proved daunting. The task was further complicated by her clothing, which hindered access to the affected areas.
In this dire situation, Cha-Eun Xiao understood that there was no time to spare, and he reluctantly began the task of removing the girl\'s clothes. His focus, however, was on the extensive fractures in her body, particularly in critical areas such as the ribs, shoulders, waist, and femur.
Handling these sensitive areas made him feel acutely self-conscious, and he clenched his teeth in determination. "I\'m doing this solely to save your life. I have no other choice," he muttered to himself, attempting to reassure himself of his noble intentions. "I\'m not taking advantage of you intentionally. Moreover, when you recover, and if you have nowhere else to turn, perhaps you\'d consider staying and working as my maid or something. I happen to need someone to manage my household affairs."
With a sigh, he continued his monologue, "Then we\'d be like family, and there\'s no need for embarrassment."
Cha-Eun Xiao couldn\'t help but marvel at the situation. "You\'re just an ordinary young girl, yet the resources I\'ve used to save your life could be valued at no less than 10 billion," he mused, shaking his head. "I\'ve never known an ordinary girl to be worth such an astronomical sum. Perhaps my initial investment was rather extravagant. And I haven\'t even accounted for the materials I\'ll need to mend your bones. If you don\'t serve me well in the future, I\'ll have incurred quite a loss."
With a determined resolve, he finally stripped the girl of all her clothes. Her delicate and pristine body was unveiled before him, radiating a captivating beauty and elegance that left him momentarily enthralled.
