Chapter 2350: It Wasn’t Hot at All, See?
“Woah, woah! It’s so hot.” Yi Liang bounced the flame fruit back and forth with both hands, “But it’s very warm.”
Ning Shu: →_→
Ning Shu demonstrated to him how to eat the flame fruit. When she bit the flame fruit, the juice inside burst out instantly.
She felt like she was eating a freshly baked soup dumpling on the hottest day of the summer. Moreover, when the juice splashed in her mouth, it was so hot.
Ning Shu just swallowed it expressionlessly.
Yi Liang snorted. “This is to be eaten?”
Ning Shu nodded. It wasn’t hot at all, see?
Yi Liang gritted his teeth and threw the fruit into his mouth. He wanted to spit it out instantly. It was too hot!!
Ning Shu raised Yi Liang’s chin with her paw. Yi Liang’s chin lifted, and he gulped the flame fruit into his stomach.
Yi Liang stretched out his tongue and exhaled. He felt extremely uncomfortable, as if he had drunk a bowl of boiling oil. His throat and stomach felt like they would have been burned.
Later, when even his limbs felt hot, Yi Liang felt as if he was being tortured on a frying pan.
“It’s so hot, it’s so hot…” Yi Liang was lying on the ground, tugging at his clothes, with his face twisted.
His skin was glowing red, like he was a boiled shrimp. Sweat dripped down his body too.
“Endure it,” Ning Shu thought inwardly. It would, of course, not be easy to wash his tendons and reconstruct his marrow.
Yi Liang was sweating like rain. His clothes were wet, and the veins on his forehead had burst out.
As time went on, Yi Liang’s sweat gradually became cloudy. It was as if someone had brushed a layer of black charcoal ash on his body.
Yi Liang’s consciousness was blurred from the pain. He spat out black, stinky blood from his mouth, in lumps.
These were the impurity and dirt in the tendons and internal organs of the body being forced out.
By the end of it, Yi Liang was lying on the ground, groaning. Besides that, the only sound he made was his faint breathing.
Ning Shu moved her black snout away. Holy, it reeked!!
Ning Shu also felt hot after eating the fruit, but it was within the tolerable range.
The white hair on Ning Shu’s body was also dyed black because the impurities in her body were being expelled.
Ning Shu now felt as light as a swallow. She could now clearly feel the spiritual energy around her.
When she saw that Yi Liang had fallen into a deep sleep, Ning Shu lay beside him and started to absorb spiritual energy.
Sure enough, since her conception vessel and governing vessel meridians were opened, Ning Shu felt that she now could absorb spiritual energy at a much faster speed than before.
Ning Shu fell into a state of being half-asleep, but not actually sleeping. The surrounding spiritual energy gathered, like a funnel, on her body, forming a vortex of spiritual energy.
Of course, most people wouldn’t be able to see spiritual energy. However, they would be able to feel the air pressure around them being just a little too strong.
Ning Shu cultivated for a long time. When she opened her eyes, however, she didn’t see Yi Liang.
The cave still reeked, but Yi Liang was nowhere to be seen.
Ning Shu’s heart skipped a beat, where did he run off to? How could he run out so recklessly? What if he bumped into the cultivators from whom she had robbed the flame fruits earlier?
He would definitely end up dead.
Where did he go?
Ning Shu went out of the cave to look for Yi Liang.
As soon as she got out of the cave, however, Ning Shu met Yi Liang with a rabbit in his hand.
As he ran, his figure looked very light.
He reached Ning Shu in the blink of an eye.
“We’ll eat roasted rabbit today!” Yi Liang lifted the rabbit by its ears and shook it in front of Ning Shu.
Yi Liang had probably showered. The dirt on his body was now gone, revealing his snow-white skin.
