Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 453: Fulfilling the Promise

After giving Chen Fan acupuncture, Wang Zhi applied plasters on several parts of his body.

The plasters looked nondescript and homemade, emitting an unpleasant odor that was nauseating.

"All right, this kid’s body will gradually recover. I’ll come back tomorrow to continue the treatment," said Wang Zhi.

Having packed up his things, Wang Zhi glanced at An Lan and was about to leave.

An Lan quickly asked, "Do I still need to go to work at the medical hall tomorrow?"

Wang Zhi teased with a smile, "No need. You just focus on recuperating for the next few days. After all, I’ll need your cooperation to fulfill my requirements."

An Lan’s face turned red, and she said nothing, escorting Wang Zhi towards the exit.

After Wang Zhi left, An Lan returned to the room where Chen Fan, impatient, asked, "What exactly did you agree to for his condition?"

Shrugging her shoulders, An Lan replied, "Nothing much. I just sincerely requested his help, and he agreed."

Chen Fan, at a loss for words, said, "You think I’d believe that?"

Without continuing the topic, An Lan changed the subject, "How are you feeling now?"

Realizing An Lan wouldn’t answer his question, Chen Fan sighed and said, "This old man indeed has some tricks up his sleeve; I can already feel the meridians in my body heating up, a sign of gradual recovery. If I can regain some of my strength, I’ll be able to heal myself."

Unable to draw upon his power, he couldn’t even retrieve items from the Heavenly Creation Pearl, which he had kept stocked with elixirs, including many healing spiritual medicines, crafted during his leisure time. If his power truly recovered, he would be able to open the Heavenly Creation Pearl, take out the medicinal pills, and his injuries would only be a matter of time to heal.

An Lan nodded with satisfaction, "Then take your treatments seriously these next few days. Now that there’s hope for living, don’t be as pessimistic as before."

Chen Fan said, "First tell me what request you agreed to with that old man!"

Without a word, An Lan got the bedding ready, turned off the light, lay down, and loudly exclaimed, "Sleep!"

In the following days, Wang Zhi came daily to apply medicine, perform acupuncture, and stick on plasters, also starting to have An Lan prepare medicine for Chen Fan, twice a day, morning and night.

A few days passed like this, and Chen Fan already felt some strength returning to his body, no longer as weak as he had been.

By the fifth day, Chen Fan could get out of bed and move around, by the tenth day, he had largely regained mobility, and the severe pain from his internal organs had significantly diminished.

It wasn’t until the fifteenth day that Chen Fan finally sensed a trace of spiritual power in his meridians, faint as it was, signaling that it wouldn’t be long before he could extract items from the Heavenly Creation Pearl using his internal spiritual power.

A month passed.

Chen Fan, using the painstakingly accumulated spiritual power within him, retrieved a dozen or so jade bottles from the Heavenly Creation Pearl.

All these bottles contained healing spiritual medicine. novelbuddy.cσ๓

He ingested these medicines like jelly beans, causing streams of pure energy to course through his body, starting to repair his internal injuries.

After a day, his physical condition improved by a third, no longer as frail as before.

Although complete recovery would still take some time, with this third of his strength, Chen Fan felt some confidence in his heart, at least now having the ability to deal with situations as they arose.

That afternoon, the Wang Yao family went to pick wild mushrooms in the mountains, leaving only An Lan and Chen Fan at home.

Wang Zhi came over once again to treat Chen Fan. He first examined Chen Fan’s body, then displayed a look of surprise, "Eh, your body has improved much more than yesterday. Logically speaking, the treatments I’ve administered shouldn’t have led to such progress."

Feigning ignorance, Chen Fan replied, "Maybe the treatment was so effective that my recovery sped up."

Wang Zhi shook his head, "Impossible. I know the effects of the medicine I used best, and your quick recovery must have another reason."

He stared at Chen Fan for a few seconds, as if trying to see through Chen Fan’s secrets.

Soon, he laughed heartily and said, "Well, your swift recovery is good news, so I won’t fuss over the reason."

He then proceeded with the usual treatment routine.

After finishing, he turned to An Lan and said, "Come outside with me for a moment."

An Lan followed Wang Zhi outside, asking with confusion, "Senior, what are your instructions?"

Smiling, Wang Zhi said, "Now that the kid no longer has a life-threatening condition and his recovery rate is unexpectedly fast, my observation is that his body can handle some strenuous exercise. So, isn’t it time for you to fulfill our initial agreement?"

An Lan widened her eyes, "Ah? Do... do I have to fulfill it today?"

Wang Zhi laughed, "No day like the present. Let’s do it today."

An Lan immediately became anxious, "But, but he definitely won’t agree to it."

Wang Zhi pulled out a jade bottle from his clothing, poured out a white medicinal pill that resembled a chocolate bean, and said, "Don’t worry, I’ve already thought of a method for you. But before that, I have to ask you, do you truly like this guy?"

After pondering for a moment, An Lan’s eyes became determined and profound, "Yes!"

Wang Zhi asked again, "And are you willing to sleep with him wholeheartedly?"

An Lan couldn’t help but nod sheepishly.

Wang Zhi laughed heartily, "I love it when you guys are genuinely in love. You like him, but he’s in love with someone else. Now, you’re going to become intimate with him, and the three of you are destined to be entangled for a lifetime. Just thinking about it excites me."

An Lan: "..."

Are you sick in the head?

Wang Zhi handed the medicinal pill to An Lan and said, "It’s simple to make him willingly do those things with you. As long as he consumes this pill, even if he’s a cold person, he will become entirely driven by lust. This pill is my meticulous creation. Not even an Immortal could easily counter its effects. The only solution is to release it, so you’ll definitely succeed."

An Lan thought to herself that she was expecting a real solution, but it turned out to be just a dirty trick.

However, she had already made a promise, and indeed he had saved Chen Fan’s life. At this point, she had no choice but to fulfill their initial agreement.

She took the medicinal pill and said, "I’ll find a way to make him swallow this."

Wang Zhi said, "Then go feed it to him quickly. Once he takes it, come out and tell me. This matter is essentially settled then. Don’t worry, as soon as I confirm he has taken the pill, I will leave immediately. I won’t disturb your blissful time together."

An Lan rolled her eyes and then took the medicinal pill into the room.

Chen Fan was pouring water at the table. Seeing An Lan enter, he asked, "What were you two talking about outside?"

Although he had regained thirty percent of his strength, his spiritual soul was still in a weak state, unable to mobilize the power of his spiritual soul and release his Divine Sense. Otherwise, he would have eavesdropped on their conversation with his Divine Sense a long time ago.

An Lan said, "We were just discussing your current situation. He said you are recovering well and don’t need treatment every day anymore."

Chen Fan gave an absent-minded response.

At that moment, An Lan turned her big eyes and walked over to Chen Fan, saying, "To celebrate your rapid recovery, let me tell you a joke."

Chen Fan shrugged, "Suit yourself."

An Lan then said, "There once was a deer, a male one. It was rushing home to see its wife, running very fast, so fast that it turned into a highway eventually."

Chen Fan felt a chill run down his spine, and he couldn’t help but shudder.

An Lan glared at him and demanded, "What, not funny?"

Chen Fan had no choice but to open his mouth and pretend to laugh heartily, "Hahaha..."

Taking advantage of this, An Lan stuffed the medicinal pill into Chen Fan’s mouth.

The pill dissolved as soon as it entered the mouth, spreading through Chen Fan’s limbs and bones, not even giving him a chance to react and spit it out.

Chen Fan looked bewildered and quickly asked An Lan, "What did you just give me?"

An Lan replied, "A pill that will make you willingly accept me."

Chen Fan felt a sense of dread in his heart, "Was it that old geezer who gave it to you?"

An Lan nodded, "I had promised him before, that I would find a way to become your woman, and only then he would treat you. Now that you’re recovering well, I also have to keep my promise. After all, it’s me who saved your life, so you might as well accept me."

Having said that, she turned and walked to the door. Opening it, she gestured an ’OK’ to Wang Zhi, who was waiting outside.

Wang Zhi laughed again, stroking his beard, "Then I won’t interrupt you two, I’ll be leaving."

Having said that, he turned and left.

An Lan returned to the room, closed the door, and locked it, just in case that sleazy old man ran back to peep, that would be terrible.

A teasing curve formed on her lips, "Today, you are mine."

Chen Fan felt his body heat up; seeing An Lan, an urge deep within him magnified countless times, and he wanted to throw this woman onto the bed immediately.

He snorted coldly, "Do you really think this trick will work on me?"

He then tried to evaporate the medicine from his body with his internal power.

However, to his surprise, no matter what he did, his inner power had no effect on the pill at all. The more he tried to eliminate the pill, the more terrifying its effect became.

He exerted all his strength, summoning a trace of the Nine Yang Divine Fire to try and completely burn the medicine, but unexpectedly, even the Nine Yang Divine Fire was ineffective.

"That damned old man, how on earth did he create such a pill? I really want to strangle him!"

Chen Fan clenched his teeth, breathing harder and harder.

An Lan stared at him and asked, "How is it, is the pill working on you?"

Chen Fan’s gaze became increasingly hazy. An Lan had turned into the most desirable prey in his heart, "What do you think?"

An Lan snickered, "I feel like the way you’re looking at me now, it’s as if you want to devour me. Stop holding back, it’s not good for either of us if you get too frustrated."

Chen Fan took a deep breath, a thought suddenly striking his mind, "I probably can’t escape today’s predicament, and I know you won’t miss this opportunity. But I have something to take care of first, you go out for a while. Once I’m done, I’ll let you do as you please."
