Chapter 714: Take Off Your Clothes

Seeing them look over, Huang He gave a slight nod.

Then, he looked at Wu Rongyuan and said, "Elder Wu, that young master is indeed profound, and his bearing is extraordinary. He doesn’t seem like a boastful person. This can’t be fake!"

"Really?"

Wu Lanlan was skeptical and found it hard to believe.

Wu Rongyuan also frowned. An illness that even a Pill King couldn’t cure was truly, as he said, no big deal?

It wasn’t just Wu Lanlan who didn’t believe it; he didn’t either. However, having been friends with Huang He for many years, he knew the man wouldn’t tease him about such matters.

With a seed of doubt planted in his heart, he secretly decided that he had to find that person. He would know the truth once he clarified everything!

Wu Qianqian didn’t explain either. Ye Wushuang had told her to come alone, so she naturally couldn’t disobey him. Besides, the treatment method was a bit... special, and she was too embarrassed to talk about it.

However, none of them noticed Ming Lang’s expression, which had turned somewhat sinister and was tinged with killing intent.

’Damn bastard, who are you? How dare you ruin my plans! I’ll make you disappear from this world forever, I swear it!’

He roared a few times in his heart.

"Ming Lang, what’s wrong?" Wu Lanlan asked, seeing his silence.

"It’s nothing!" Ming Lang looked up and smiled. "Although the Second Miss’s illness has been temporarily suppressed, we can’t let our guard down. I just refined a few Fire Separation Pills, which can be of great help to her."

"Fire Separation Pills? Ming Lang, that’s nearly the level of a Pseudo-Saint Pill! Did you have another breakthrough?"

Wu Lanlan stared at Ming Lang in shock.

Wu Rongyuan and Huang He were also astonished. Ming Lang was already a Ninth-Level Alchemist; one more step and he would be a Pill King!

"I’ve made some progress."

Ming Lang smiled faintly and handed the Fire Separation Pills to Wu Qianqian. She accepted them, but simply put them away in her Storage Ring. She didn’t need them anymore!

Just as Wu Rongyuan was thinking about how to find Ye Wushuang, Ye Wushuang had already left the Trading House.

"Young Master, did you buy it?"

Gao Yang, who had been waiting, saw Ye Wushuang come out and immediately went to greet him.

"I did. Let’s go back," Ye Wushuang said, and they returned to Gao Yang’s home to wait for the Trading House to gather the medicinal ingredients.

The next day, Ye Wushuang continued with his Alchemy.

That rascal, the Dragon Cat, stood guard nearby, popping Elixirs like they were candy. It left Gao Yang and his father speechless, silently lamenting that no one should waste Treasure Pills like that!

However, to their delight, Ye Wushuang gave them a few of the Elixirs he was refining, moving them deeply.

With the Elixirs, Gao Yang’s body grew stronger and healthier, shedding his sickly appearance!

At the same time, he was in the courtyard practicing the Eight Kills of Battle. Ye Wushuang offered him some pointers, which led to immense gains and deepened his admiration for him!

All the Alchemy he had been doing during this time was to practice the Fire Control Technique, the "Nine Flavors Fire Manipulation Technique." It had to be said that this Fire Control Technique was truly profound!

Normal Alchemy involved controlling a single flame.

The Nine Flavors Fire Manipulation Technique, however, overturned this convention. It allowed one to control multiple flames for Alchemy simultaneously, which could temper the Elixirs to varying degrees and improve their quality!

Ye Wushuang had now reached the Great Success stage in his practice, allowing him to command nine types of Exotic Fire. His Alchemy speed was now extremely fast!

「The next day, at noon.」

Wu Qianqian finally found Gao Yang’s home. She came alone, without even her maid, Xiaohuan.

"Second Miss!"

Seeing their visitor, Gao Yang and his father were filled with trepidation. This was the Second Miss of Wutang City, and she had actually come to a small place like theirs.

"Excuse me, is that young master here?"

Wu Qianqian asked, her eyes scanning the courtyard.

"That young master?"

Gao Yang and his father were stunned for a moment before asking, "Second Miss, are you looking for Young Master Ye?"

"Hey, girlie! Your Uncle Ye is waiting for you inside." The Dragon Cat came waddling out of a room, shouting at the top of its lungs and causing Wu Qianqian’s pretty face to blush slightly!

Gao Yang and his father, however, were already immune, well aware of how shameless this arrogant cat was.

Wu Qianqian just smiled faintly and walked into the room where Ye Wushuang was. After a moment’s thought, she closed the door behind her, leaving Gao Yang and his father confused.

"Hehe, don’t peek. That kid is getting down to business," the Dragon Cat said with a lewd grin. That smile forced Gao Yang and his father to let their minds wander in *that* direction.

"Please sit, Miss Qianqian."

Ye Wushuang pointed to the bed.

Wu Qianqian nodded and sat on the bed.

Ye Wushuang walked over and was about to begin the treatment, but after a moment’s thought, he asked, "You should probably take off your clothes."

"Ah!" Wu Qianqian let out a sudden cry, her face instantly turning beet red as she recalled the earlier scene.

"If you leave your clothes on, the true fire will burn them to ash anyway."

Ye Wushuang said, having no ulterior motives.

Hearing this, Wu Qianqian thought for a moment, then stole a glance at Ye Wushuang. As if having made up her mind, she did as he said.

She sat there shyly, her bashful posture enough to stir anyone’s heart.

It had to be said, Wu Qianqian’s skin was as white as snow. Perhaps due to the corrosion of the White Lotus Ice Heart Purifying Flame, her body was a bit thin, but the places that should be full were by no means lacking!

"Let’s begin now."

Ye Wushuang took a deep breath, suppressed his Dragon Blood that was boiling to its peak, and began the treatment.

Hearing this, Wu Qianqian felt a small, inexplicable pang of disappointment. From a woman’s perspective, to be exposed like this at such close proximity to a man, only for him to remain unmoved...

She even began to wonder if she had no charm at all!

But how could she know that Ye Wushuang’s Dragon Blood was already boiling to the point of frenzy?

BUZZ!

As the Ultimate Yang True Fire entered her, her body trembled, and all her stray thoughts vanished. She focused her attention entirely on her condition.

The Ultimate Yang True Fire coursed through her body like a ball of fire, traveling through her meridians and limbs, forcing the Cold Ice Power to retreat to her heart.

She could see an ice-crystal lotus at the center of her heart—the main body of the White Lotus Ice Heart Purifying Flame, which had already fused with her heart.

Ye Wushuang immediately said, "First, try to sense it. While I’m performing the Refinement, use your Divine Sense to control it, understand?"

The Ultimate Yang True Fire was of a higher grade than the White Lotus Ice Heart Purifying Flame and exerted a powerful suppressive force over it. With the Purple Emperor’s Heaven-Burning Flame also lending its aid, it was completely unable to resist.

The moment it tried to resist, it would be devoured and weakened!

Under this suppression, the White Lotus Ice Heart Purifying Flame initially struggled violently before showing signs of giving up its resistance, which was the perfect opportunity for Wu Qianqian to gain control of it.

However, the power of the Ultimate Yang True Fire posed a threat to Wu Qianqian herself, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably.

Ye Wushuang immediately withdrew it. If he continued like this, not only would he fail to save her, but the Ultimate Yang True Fire would end up scorching her meridians.

"That’s enough for today."

Looking at Wu Qianqian, who was drenched in fragrant sweat, Ye Wushuang said, "You now have some measure of control. The White Lotus Ice Heart Purifying Flame no longer threatens your life."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qianqian hastily put her clothes back on. Her movements were so swift that she was dressed in the blink of an eye!

"At this rate, you should be fine in about four or five days."

Ye Wushuang was momentarily stunned, then chuckled.

Ah?

Hearing this, Wu Qianqian’s face flushed red again. ’Four or five days? Does that mean... we have to do this every day?’
