The strange thing was that they did not clash with each other. They walked their own paths and did not interfere with each other. Hence, Ling Yun was not in danger of going berserk.
If Ling Yun could use his divine sense to look inside his body, he would be able to clearly see that the immortal spiritual energy in his body had already started to divide.
The most obvious part was the color of the immortal spiritual energy.
The immortal spiritual energy that gushed out from the Gate of Heaven above his head had already started to turn light green. The immortal spiritual energy in between his eyebrows had turned light gold. The immortal spiritual energy in his energy center was now black and white.
At this moment, the spiritual energy that Ling Yun had absorbed for the past few days was as still as a dead sea. There were no signs of it swimming out from its hiding place.
In the blink of an eye, the Immortal Spiritual Energy had completed twelve cycles in Ling Yun's body. Last night, Ling Yun had already reached the pinnacle of Physique Tempering Stage Level 2. He was only a step away from Physique Tempering Stage Level 3. Now, with the rush of the Immortal Spiritual Energy, he had broken through to the middle of Physique Tempering Stage Level 3.
Ling Yun was overjoyed. Just as he was about to make use of this opportunity to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Four, he realized that the immortal spiritual energy in his body had returned to its original place. He could not feel its existence at all.
"What does this mean?" Ling Yun was dumbfounded.
It suddenly appeared and disappeared without a trace, like an antelope hanging its horn.
Just as he was in a daze, the door of The People's Clinic was pushed open and a pregnant woman walked in.
It was none other than Liu Li, whom Ling Yun had saved in the morning.
After Liu Li parted ways with Ling Yun in the morning, the strange feeling in her heart disappeared quickly. She was not the kind of woman who was open and loose. In fact, she was very conservative.
If she was that kind of woman, she would not have been forced into such a state by Tian Xiaoguang. Once her man was in trouble, she would have aborted the child and run off with another man.
Liu Li returned home and started to rummage through the cupboards. After half an hour, she finally found a brush in an inconspicuous box.
Apart from the fact that the barrel was made of stone and the tip of the brush was sharp, there was nothing special about this brush. Compared to the exquisite brushes sold in the shop, it looked even more shabby.
"He protected my chastity, saved the child in my womb, and even gave me money. To repay him with such a brush, it's really …"
Liu Li muttered to herself with furrowed brows. As she spoke, she wanted to put the brush back, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and placed the brush into her bag.
"In any case, it's passed down from my ancestors. Although I can't sell it, it's still a token of my appreciation."
After a simple breakfast, Liu Li grabbed her bag and headed to the hospital to replace her mother-in-law.
Ever since her son's accident, her mother-in-law had been crying all day. The word she said the most every day was, "Retribution."
Liu Li's mother-in-law always talked about retribution for a reason.
Liu Li's husband's name was Li Yunxiang, and he was from Huaiyang, Henan Province. This Li Yunxiang was quite ordinary, and he was currently just a construction worker. However, a few generations of his ancestors had been tomb robbers.
To put it bluntly, tomb raiding captains were people who dug graves and robbed tombs.
According to her mother-in-law, the stone brush that Liu Li took out was found in a large tomb by Li Yunxiang's grandfather's grandfather. There was no inkstone or brush holder, only this solitary brush.
Li Yunxiang's grandfather and father both died at a young age. Now that Liu Li was pregnant, Li Yunxiang was hit by a falling brick from a construction site. It would be strange if her mother-in-law didn't say that it was retribution.
After noon, her mother-in-law came to replace her. Liu Li handed the thousand yuan to her mother-in-law and told her about what happened in the morning. Then, she told her mother-in-law about her intention to use the brush to repay her debt of gratitude.
Liu Li's mother-in-law was originally extremely grateful to Ling Yun, but now that her daughter-in-law wanted to use this brush that no one would buy for money to repay her kindness, she couldn't help but say, "Liu Li, he saved us, it's only natural for him to repay his kindness. But you're going to use this … Aren't you making a joke out of yourself …"
"Mother, I also know that this thing is useless, but we really don't have anything else to offer …"
Liu Li's face was gloomy.
Seeing her daughter-in-law's distress, Li Yunxiang's mother could only nod in agreement. "Alright, even though we tried to sell it a few times, it's still something that has been passed down for hundreds of years. Just take it as a token of our appreciation. If they don't like it, don't bring it back. It doesn't matter if it's a good thing or not, we can't afford it. Otherwise, we wouldn't have gone through so much trouble. Just throw it away."
Liu Li nodded and left the hospital. After a simple lunch, she went to The People's Clinic.
Seeing that Liu Li had really come, Ling Yun could no longer be bothered with the Immortal Spiritual Energy in his body. He hurriedly invited Liu Li to take a seat.
"Miss Liu, you're here?"
Liu Li didn't dare to look Ling Yun in the eye. She nodded lightly and asked, "Why are you alone in the clinic? Where's Doctor Qin? "
It could be said that in the slums, there wasn't anyone who didn't know of The People's Clinic. Very few people didn't know who Qin Qiuyue was.
Ling Yun smiled faintly. "Erm, my mother brought my sister to the city to buy some things. But don't worry, I'll definitely take care of your body. You don't need to take any medication."
Ling Yun was now in the middle of Physique Tempering Stage Level 3. Even though he couldn't revive the dead, he didn't even need to use silver needles to treat Liu Li's illness.
However, he wanted to help Liu Li recuperate her weak body. Hence, he took out the leather needle pouch and took out nine silver needles.
"Erm … Miss Liu, I'm a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. This time, I'll be using silver needles to recuperate your body. Don't you worry?"
"Silver needles? Prick … where? " Even though Liu Li knew about traditional Chinese medicine, she still felt her scalp tingle when she saw the hundreds of needles in Ling Yun's leather pouch.
Ling Yun understood her concerns. After all, Liu Li was different from Miracle Doctor Xue and the old man who was knocked over. One of them was a leading figure in traditional Chinese medicine while the other was unconscious. Ling Yun could do whatever he wanted with both of them. However, Liu Li was different.
Ling Yun gave Liu Li a reassuring smile and said softly, "Prick a few acupoints around your stomach." Then, he quietly waited for her choice.
Upon hearing that Ling Yun was going to prick her stomach, Liu Li's face turned red. She was a little nervous. However, when she saw Ling Yun's gaze, her heart skipped a beat and she unexpectedly nodded her head.
"Then … do you want me to take off my top?" Liu Li's beautiful face flushed red. Her originally sallow complexion started to turn bright red.
Ling Yun was so focused on recuperating Liu Li's body that he didn't notice these minute changes. He directly said, "There's no need. You just need to lift up your top and let down your pants. Come over here … "
As Ling Yun spoke, he first walked behind a black curtain in the clinic. There was a simple single bed there.
Ling Yun didn't think too much about it. However, Liu Li's face was already as red as blood. For the sake of the child in her stomach, she still walked over.
Liu Li carefully laid down on the bed and followed Ling Yun's instructions to lift up her top. Her white belly was immediately exposed to the air.
She was so embarrassed that she immediately closed her eyes. At this stage, she could only let Ling Yun do as he wished.
"The waist of your pants needs to be lowered a little more." Ling Yun saw that Liu Li's pants were blocking two of the acupuncture points.
Hearing this, Liu Li's face turned even redder. She closed her eyes and tried to pull up the waist of her pants. However, she was already lying down and her stomach was so high, how could she reach it?
Seeing that she couldn't reach it after trying twice, Ling Yun kindly said, "Big Sister Liu, do you want me to help you?"
Liu Li could only close her eyes and nod her head shyly.
Ling Yun gently pulled down the waist of Liu Li's pants. The waist of a pregnant woman's pants was originally very loose and low. With Ling Yun's pull, he immediately saw a few strands of black hair below Liu Li's lower abdomen.
His heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly raised his head. He did not dare to look anymore.
Even though the preparation work was ambiguous and troublesome, Ling Yun's acupuncture was incomparably fast. Now that he was in the middle of Physique Tempering Stage Level 3, Ling Yun had nine silver needles in his hands. The silver needles were overflowing with spiritual energy and there was no hindrance at all.
In just three minutes, Ling Yun had completed the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot. This time, he was not stingy. With every needle, he would transfer a stream of spiritual energy into Liu Li's body. After the acupuncture was completed, not only would the child in Liu Li's stomach be worry-free, but Liu Li's body would also quickly recover to the level of a healthy person. Furthermore, she would not be affected by diseases in the future.
"Big Sister Liu, you still need to lie down for a while. After I remove the needles, everything will be fine!"
With that, Ling Yun immediately walked out of the curtain.
Liu Li was initially afraid and embarrassed. However, after Ling Yun inserted the first needle into her body, she immediately felt the changes in her body. After Ling Yun had completed the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot, a comfortable, stable, and warm feeling spread throughout her body. Her heart was indescribably at ease.
Half an hour later, Ling Yun came over to remove the needles and carefully helped Liu Li down the bed.
"How do you feel now?" Ling Yun asked with a smile.
"The flustered feeling is gone, and my body isn't weak anymore. The child is very calm and at ease now."
Liu Li said happily. The mother and the fetus were connected by blood. She did not even need to check. Just from the difference in the body before and after the treatment, she knew that the child was completely fine.
"Big Sister Liu, congratulations. It's a boy. The little fellow is very healthy." Ling Yun laughed.
"It's really a boy? How did you know? "Liu Li forgot about her shyness and was overjoyed.
Ling Yun thought to himself, After nine needles, if I don't know whether the child in your stomach is a boy or a girl, how can I treat any illness?
Ling Yun kept the needles and Liu Li returned to the chair. She took out the brush from her bag.
"Big Brother, I can't thank you enough. Your Big Sister Liu's family really can't give you anything good now. This brush is a family heirloom. If you don't mind, please accept it."
After saying that, she stuffed the brush into Ling Yun's hand without any explanation.
"Big Sister Liu, you don't have to …"
Before Ling Yun could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt the Immortal Spiritual Energy in his body move again. It flowed continuously through his palm and into the brush!
