Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Borrowing Money
Coincidentally, even if the old man encountered this, he might not be able to heal it.
Just so happens, Lin Xi practices the Xuanyuan God Dragon Technique, which is not only an extraordinary cultivation technique but also extremely powerful and masculine.
Whereas Extreme Cold Body is of a yin nature.
Lin Xi can use the cultivation technique for balance, slowly dissipating the cold energy within Su Qiaoqiao, achieving bodily harmony.
With one hand placed on Su Qiaoqiao’s back, Lin Xi’s dantian seemed to have a small sun, from which a stream of red energy flowed.
Su Qiaoqiao’s nearly frozen thoughts suddenly felt a warm current flowing into her body from behind, dissolving the cold energy inside her.
In an instant, all the cold energy within her sensed it, rushing in from all directions to encircle and destroy this warm current, attempting to extinguish it in its infancy.
This warm flow seemed small, but was extremely resilient.
It continuously neutralized the cold energy while slowly progressing, directly targeting her heart meridian.
"Hmm?"
Lin Xi hadn’t expected the cold energy within her to be so domineering and massive, far surpassing the yang energy within him.
Nevertheless, Lin Xi’s yang energy was of high quality and under his control, whereas the cold energy within Su Qiaoqiao, though abundant, lacked organization and was rather scattered.
Lin Xi never intended to eliminate all the cold energy in one go, as that was simply impossible.
Based on the severity of her cold energy, at least ten sessions would be needed.
This session was just to protect her heart meridian.
About an hour later, Lin Xi withdrew his palm, his complexion slightly pale, and a bit of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
He checked his dantian and discovered that the yang energy, which was originally fist-sized, had shrunk to thumb-sized, like a flickering candle in the wind.
"The consumption was too much this time, didn’t expect the cold energy within her to be harder to deal with than anticipated," Lin Xi thought to himself, feeling somewhat frail, which was rare for him, usually only appearing when he practiced with the old man.
Before him, Su Qiaoqiao’s white aura had disappeared, and her complexion returned to normal, even showing some rosiness.
However, she hadn’t regained consciousness yet, her body softened, leaning into Lin Xi’s embrace.
Her eyes were slightly closed, eyelids subtly trembling; she slept very peacefully.
"Just a little kiss," Lin Xi recalled how pitiful she had just looked.
At less than a centimeter distance, he could even clearly feel the breath of the little beauty when Su Qiaoqiao suddenly opened her eyes, causing Lin Xi to pause.
She then reacted with surprise and anger, turning her head away, jumping up and slapped Lin Xi, shouting, "You big rogue!"
Lin Xi dodged, standing up without any embarrassment, asking, "Where’s the rogue?"
"The rogue is you," Su Qiaoqiao responded angrily.
"Don’t talk nonsense," Lin Xi appeared unfazed.
Su Qiaoqiao, infuriated, jumped up, pointing at Lin Xi, "You secretly kissed me, and you’re saying you’re not a rogue?"
"Weren’t you asking me to?" Lin Xi replied.
"You, you, you... you’re going to drive me mad!" Su Qiaoqiao was speechless.
In that moment, her legs weakened, she was about to fall to the ground when Lin Xi stepped forward and supported her in time, "Your body hasn’t recovered yet, don’t be so emotionally volatile."
"You, you, you... are you still blaming me!"
"Hmm, wait, wasn’t I dead? Little brother, why are you here? Are you dead too?"
Lin Xi was speechless, not responding, but helped her sit down on the ground.
Seeing Lin Xi not responding, Su Qiaoqiao curiously touched her face and pinched her waist, "Still as small."
"Hmm?"
"No, isn’t it said that when someone dies, their body has no temperature?" Su Qiaoqiao was shocked, looking at Lin Xi again.
"Little brother, tell me, am I not dead?"
"Not yet dead," Lin Xi replied.
"Really? How is that possible?"
She was well aware of her physical condition; each time the cold sickness flared up, she needed to soak in a special hot spring with various precious medicinal materials to barely get through.
The agony during the process was akin to hell on earth.
Moreover, this process lasted more than two hours each time.
Afterward, she would collapse on the bed unable to move even a finger.
But this time, she felt fantastic, her body filled with energy, experiencing such a feeling for the first time in her life.
Suspiciously glancing at Lin Xi for a while, Su Qiaoqiao pondered, "Could it be the phenomenon before death? Is it already the next day?"
Taking out her phone and checking the time, Su Qiaoqiao was once again shocked.
"Here you go," Lin Xi pulled out a thumb-sized white porcelain bottle from his pocket and tossed it to Su Qiaoqiao.
Su Qiaoqiao instinctively caught it, asked skeptically, "What is this?"
Opening the bottle cap and smelling, a heat wave emerged, nearly causing Su Qiaoqiao to throw the bottle away, "Little brother, what’s this thing?"
"Red Fire Pill, although it can’t cure your cold sickness, it has a great suppressive effect on such a sickness. Take one now, and once every three days afterward; when the cold sickness strikes next time, it will be much weaker," Lin Xi explained.
He practiced the Xuanyuan God Dragon Technique, extremely yang, often with excessive yang energy, so sometimes he would find opportunities to refine Red Fire Pills using the surplus yang energy.
Unexpectedly, today it proved to be very useful.
Su Qiaoqiao was dumbfounded, according to little brother, was it his Red Fire Pill during her recent illness?
"Did little brother just give me this Red Fire Pill, curing my cold sickness?" Su Qiaoqiao instantly felt delighted.
If so, she would never have to undergo this torment again.
"Red Fire Pill can only suppress, not cure your cold sickness," Lin Xi responded.
"Then how did I get through it just now?" Su Qiaoqiao was puzzled.
"Of course you need treatment; what do you say?" Lin Xi retorted, regarding the Xuanyuan God Dragon Technique, refusing to mention it to anyone else except the old man.
"Little brother also knows medicine?" Su Qiaoqiao was quite surprised; her cold sickness had baffled famous doctors across Jiangnan, and now it silently had been managed by someone much younger than her.
Thinking about it, she felt it incredible.
Almost like dreaming, she couldn’t resist pinching her waist again. Indeed, it was real.
"Hurry and take one," Lin Xi urged.
Su Qiaoqiao’s head was quite muddled, she opened the bottle cap with a bewildered face, pouring out one pill, round and gleaming, red as fire, "Really need to take it?"
"Hmm."
With a half-believing attitude, Su Qiaoqiao hesitated for a while, no issues swallowing it, right?
As soon as the pill reached her throat, it transformed into a warm current, instantly dispersing throughout her body, she felt as if basking in warm sunshine, extremely comfortable.
Far better than soaking in hot springs at home.
At that moment, she finally genuinely believed that the little brother before her saved her.
"Gurgle, gurgle."
Su Qiaoqiao’s stomach growled, she didn’t feel shy at all; naturally, she said to Lin Xi, "Little brother, lend me ten thousand yuan."
