The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 471 Meridian Blockage

Nian Shutong’s problem added another layer to Master Huo’s confidence. Without a chair, he simply squatted on the ground and began to talk to Nian Shutong.

"Master, you are absolutely right. Qingqing was about to advance to S-level previously. He has been talented since childhood and at twenty-one, he is at a prime age. But this illness has set him back."

"I don’t need him to be very impressive, I just want him to stay alive. As long as he’s alive, that’s good enough. As long as he’s alive."

Staying alive was good, Master Huo repeated several times. He truly hoped for it; he no longer cared about legacy or whether Qingqing was a genius.

"En, you don’t need to be so agitated. I said I can cure him, and I truly can," Nian Shutong said with a faint smile. "So let’s start the treatment now."

She stood up and told Lian Qing, "Don’t move."

"Your body is already burnt out, don’t move around heedlessly."

Nian Shutong walked behind Lian Qing and began to explain why his body was like this.

"Your meridians, which are the channels in your body, are different from others."

"But you’ve been cultivating according to interstellar methods, accumulating too much energy from Crystal Stones."

"Although it allowed you to advance rapidly at first, it wasn’t completely absorbed by your body. Slowly, it accumulated in some of your meridians, causing blockages."

"This blockage not only impedes your cultivation but also depletes part of your energy every day from the parts that aren’t blocked. When the energy you store isn’t sufficient, it starts consuming your own energy."

"This consumption won’t slow down with supplements, which is why you’ve been getting weaker."

After explaining, Nian Shutong didn’t give Lian Qing a chance to ask questions, but simply said, "Close your eyes and don’t resist."

Her left palm covered the back of Lian Qing, and a stream of Spiritual Power began to impact the blocked meridians of Lian Qing.

Lian Qing initially didn’t quite believe it, but as soon as Nian Shutong’s palm covered him, he sensed the difference.

A comfortable energy moved throughout his body; with every segment it traveled, he felt lighter.

It really did make him feel lighter, a sensation he had never experienced before.

Hope sparked in Lian Qing’s eyes. Could he really be cured?

Lian Qing’s mother, watching him all the while, clearly caught the change in his expression. Could this be working?

Lian Qing’s mother quickly stepped back, covering her mouth with both hands to avoid making a sound.

Master Huo guarded the doorway personally, eyes fixedly watching Nian Shutong’s movements.

His son, might be saved.

Compared to Fu Yunhe, Lian Qing’s meridians were much less congested.

Thus, Nian Shutong didn’t need to divide the treatment into several sessions to seem important. She pressed on and dispelled all the chronic issues in Lian Qing’s meridians in one go.

After finishing, she still needed to find a Crystal Stone.

Half an hour later, Nian Shutong withdrew her palm, her hair still perfectly in place, and stated, "The meridians are trouble-free for now. As long as he continues with supplements, he will gradually recover."

"But..."

A single word of "but" made Lian Qing and his parents, who had just begun to relax, tense up again.

But what?

"But Lian Qing can’t cultivate for now. As for the future, perhaps fate will have its way," Nian Shutong finished and was about to leave.

Master Huo, at the doorway, suddenly knelt down before Nian Shutong.

"Master, thank you."

"Thud, thud, thud"

Three sincere bows, truly heartfelt, not the slightest pretense.

Not only Master Huo, but Lian Qing’s mother also walked over quickly, looking like she too intended to kneel.

"No need for that."

Nian Shutong stopped Lian Qing’s mother’s action and said to Lian Qing, "Although your meridians have healed, your body’s weakness is indeed a fact, so don’t come over."

"If there’s nothing else, I plan to leave now."

Nian Shutong hurried off, but Master Huo wouldn’t allow it.

"Master, I don’t know where you want to go, but I can be your guide. There isn’t a place on Tata Jupiter that I’m not aware of."

"Do you have a place to stay? If not, you can temporarily stay with us. You can choose any room you like."

"You have given us a great favor; I must do something in return, or I wouldn’t feel at ease."

Master Huo’s words made Nian Shutong reflect for a moment. Staying for one night was acceptable; she indeed was unfamiliar with the area.

"Alright, then please arrange a room for us."

"Alright!" Master Huo opened the door and said to Lian Qing, "I’ll be back soon."

"Dad, go about your business. I’ll wait for you here."

There was a bit of vigor on Lian Qing’s face, no longer an expression that seemed indifferent to life or death.

At this time, Master Huo had already walked out of the courtyard with Nian Shutong, while Fu Yunhe, with Dou Dou by his side, was constantly watching the room’s door.

When the door opened, both young and old hurriedly walked out from the pavilion.

The butler who had been standing outside the pavilion also followed.

"Butler, arrange our best room, and tell the kitchen to bring out the finest wine and dishes."

Master Huo’s voice was full of joy, and the butler, knowing the situation, was immediately delighted.

The young master could be saved!

"Sir, I’ll go right away."

The butler turned and almost jogged away, clearly showing how much he genuinely cared for Lian Qing.

Fu Yunhe, with Dou Dou by his side, stood next to Nian Shutong and heard her say, "We’ll stay for one night and go out for a stroll tomorrow."

Mainly because she had no specific destination. She planned to use the pretext of shopping to let the little white mouse search for where the Crystal Stone Mine might be.

Best if it was ownerless.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome.

Nian Shutong and the others followed Master Huo, who was leading the way. They didn’t walk far before reaching a large courtyard.

Pavilions, towers, everything one could wish for.

"Master, please feel comfortable to stay here. Rest for a while, and I will call you for dinner later."

"We don’t need to eat together for dinner. The three of you probably have a lot to talk about, and I don’t like crowds. Just bring the food to us, and we’ll eat on our own."

"Fine." Master Huo agreed straightforwardly without any insistence.

After Master Huo led the three into the room, he left.

He moved swiftly, almost wishing he could grow wings and fly, obviously heading to Lian Qing’s courtyard.

At this moment inside the room, only Nian Shutong and the other two remained. Dou Dou pouted and said, "Granny, good boy is hungry."

"Alright, I know."

Nian Shutong waved her hand to cast a barrier and began taking out some items, though not many.

"Let’s eat a little bit to fill our stomachs in case their food is tasty. We’ll still want to try it."

"Granny, Dou Dou won’t waste food."

"Good."

Nian Shutong praised Dou Dou, and a quiet voice also chimed in from the side.

"I won’t waste food either."
