Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 698: Choke
Under the effects of the dragon king’s blood, Ru Yunlan couldn’t hold back his pain and almost fell inside the wooden tub. If not for him supporting his body with his two arms, he would most likely be the first man to drown while screaming in pain inside a portable tub.
Just as Ru Yunlan was about to scream for the second time, a few golden acupuncture needles flew towards him like small golden dragons instantly hitting all the meridian point that helps him not only lessen the pain, increase his absorption speed and widen his meridians for smoother meditation.
The God of death’s soul fragment was amazed. After all, the golden dragon needles is a trademark only the heir of the Divine Doctor can use. Now he truly believes that this young lady is this generation’s Divine Doctor. Even in the Immortal World the existence of the Divine doctor is precious. Especially for those divinities who don’t have means to cure himself.
Yue Xuexia glanced as her god son calmed down and sat in the wooden tub meditating with his eyes closed. His skin under the effects of the concoction had a tint of red as if he was a boiled shrimp. His breathing even emitted some white mist like how boiling water does. However, this state is the optimal state for Ru Yunlan. As this means that his body was like a sword being hit by a blacksmith finding the most perfected form for the blade.
When Ru Yunlan is on the verge of overheating the acupuncture needles would fly off his body helping with cooling of his body. Then afterwards it would once again fly towards his body to help him absorb the medication and dragon blood in it. Such precise control was something most doctors are incapable of. Moreover, controlling the needle without affecting the target is a high level technique and must be done at the right moment without making any mistake. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
The doctor also needs to be on watch for the whole time and all small changes in the body of the target would require an adjustment from the side of the doctor and such kind of meticulousness needs a knowledge an ordinary doctor can control.
The Death God’s soul fragment who was watching the whole time couldn’t help but feel envious of this boy. When he was at his level, no one was there to teach him body cultivation, much less prepare such expensive and rare material to help him reach the initial stage of his cultivation. No one to help him ease the pain and no one to support him this carefully. He had to endure a pair of his muscles ripping and his bones grinding until he finally became a physical type cultivator.
Moreover, this kind of cultivator requires more resources to burn and the rarer it gets the higher the stage his cultivation is. Just so he can awaken an ancient god’s physique which is said to be the most powerful body cultivation one can train for. It was this physique and his death qi that helped him achieve the position as the God of Death, becoming one of the Primordial Gods in existence.
However, after living for too long he had gotten too lonely. Even watching and playing with mortal’s fate had gotten boring. In the end, he had to kill himself and try what reincarnation is. It’s just that the process had left him bewildered as the reincarnation of Primordial Gods needs an heir to take over them.
It’s extremely hard to find a successor that is compatible with their element. It should be a talent enough to replace him. He had waited ten thousand years just to find this boy who was born with the same fate as him. Who would have thought that the tragedy this boy is destined to experience was instantly turned over by one existence.
The Moon Goddess...
He couldn’t see through her original origin. She is not only born with noble bloodlines and even possessed a rare soul. The kind all gods would definitely be greedy off. If this young lady didn’t have the heaven’s will as a protector or that soul fragment that can turn his soul fragment into ashes he would have tried to devour such a pure soul.
His successor happened to have this noble woman as a backer. Which leads to his initial path being more carefree and fully supported. The initial stage of body cultivation is the time where the cultivators needed to be serious with. As the initial stage would become the foundation of their overall state. When he was at this stage his foundation was shaky and he almost died before he had fully ascended as a true god. That’s why seeing his successor’s side, he felt both envious, jealous and a bit worried.
After all, without proper tempering a body cultivator will become a softy that is easy to bully making their lives worse. That was until he overheard the conversation between the system and the moon goddess.
Yue Xuexia said, "Uninvited guests are sneaking around the area? No wonder I feel that unknown presence. There are rats gathering around. But for what reason?"
[It should be because of the phenomena when the kind awakened his bloodline. It was quite similar when a heaven and earth treasures are naturally born. There is also the fact that no one knows that you are the owner of this mountain. That’s why greedy fools cannot hold back and want to attack this place.]
With the explanation from the system, Yue Xuexia understood that the commotion from a few days ago had attracted some rats. The kind that likes to steal things.
The Moon Goddess narrowed her eyes dangerously as she realized that a few weeks had already passed since Xiao Muen, Han Haerin and Ru Yunlan had started their training for their cultivation. With that it’s time for them to test what they had gained these past few days. After all, even a minor accomplishment is a big leap in their cultivation. But practical training is the most effective way for them to adjust to their new abilities.
"Maybe it’s time to let them try it out on these rats." She mumbles.

Before the nightfall, Ru Yunlan had successfully absorbed the effects of his medicinal bath. His body was tempered with a dragon’s blood and his skin turned thicker which is now cannot be easily penetrated even by a gun or other kinds of ordinary weapons. This tempering with the use for the dragon’s blood as medium, the current body of Ru Yunlan is now as strong as a baby dragon.
Xiao Muen is not bad as well. He had also learned the first move of his sword technique. Even though his footwork and breathing techniques haven’t been perfected it was enough to support the first sword technique he had learned.
On the other hand, Han Haerin had started to learn who to weave an illusion. Though she hasn’t perfect control over it and the duration is shorter than when cooking instant noodles, it was still an illusion.
When the night had fallen, in the middle of the night, some shadowy figure, moving around the mountain and the direction was towards the peak where the hidden mansion is found. These are cultivators who were at least at Jindan Realm and below. They are vultures who hunt places where treasures seem to be born. If it is possible to steal then they would.
On the day, Ru Yunlan’s bloodline had awakened, the whole mountain shook. The nearby lands were affected and the phenomenon of dark and shadowy mist swirling at the peak of the mountain was witnessed by the many. Moreover, the fact that they are cultivators that didn’t come originally from this place, maybe they are ignorant of who is the owner of the mansion at the top of this mountain.
There is also another fact that the dragon race is one of the proudest races there is. They will not entertain one that is weaker than they are unless they felt it was interesting or something that caught their attention. That’s why the dragons never spread that the owner of that side mountain was no longer theirs and that a new one had taken over that place.
The Moon Goddess is also not fond of crowds. So when the dragon race had given this mountain to her, she told them to keep it a secret. This is to lessen people coming over to her for personal reasons. Even the government had no idea that the owner of this place is now given to the Moon Goddess.
With all these circumstances alone, others didn’t know that at the top of this mountain, the Moon Goddess is currently resting with a few of her people. This night invasion was something that these vulture-like cultivators had planned. Without them knowing that before they can even come out, their existence was long exposed to the owner of the mountain.
—
Dinner time before midnight.
Yue Xuexia had informed the three among the intruders who would most likely attack the mansion. It suddenly opened out of nowhere which left the three people bewildered.
The Moon Goddess said, "Ah. I should inform you just in case I forgot. There will be intruders attacking the mansion tonight. You three will handle them."
Xiao Muen who burned his tongue as he was sipping his bowl of soup when he heard this. Han Haerin who was drinking water and was caught off guard caught her to choke on water and Ru Yunlan who had just swallowed a big bite was now struggling as his food was suddenly stuck on his throat were all dumbfounded by this news.
"What did you say!?"
