Rakish Little Immortal Doctor

After realizing his gaffe, Li Qianfan immediately covered his mouth, his eyes full of embarrassment as he looked at Yu Xian.

Big and round??

Yu Xian was no fool; she instantly understood the implication behind Li Qianfan’s words. Narrowing her eyes slightly, she twisted his arm fiercely and said, “You shameless thing, how dare you ogle my mom’s butt in front of me.”

“Ouch, ouch, that really hurts!”

Such strength was merely a tickle to Li Qianfan, a cultivator, but he still exaggerated his reaction, howling in mock agony.

“Enough, stop pretending, I barely used any strength.”

Yu Xian rolled her eyes at Li Qianfan.

“Hehe.” Li Qianfan rubbed the spot where Yu Xian had twisted and said with a cheeky grin, “Sister Xian, you can’t blame me, can you? Your mother is so beautiful. If you hadn’t told me she was your mother, I would’ve thought she was your sister—gorgeous figure, well-maintained skin, how does she do it?”

If any other man had said this, Yu Xian would have exploded in anger, possibly even slapping him, but these words from Li Qianfan didn’t anger her at all. Instead, she explained, “My mother is naturally beautiful and was very pretty when she was young. She cares deeply about her appearance and follows Daoist practices, constantly cultivating at home.”

“No wonder, I always felt your aunt had a very unique aura.”

Li Qianfan muttered to himself. Back in his university days, he had met a Daoist priestess who was nearly fifty but still looked like a young woman.

“Enough about my mom. Honestly, I don’t really like her obsessing over Daoist cultivation. A few years ago, she got a book filled with undecipherable text, spending all her time researching it, consulting experts, and browsing the internet. It made her seem almost insane,” Yu Xian couldn’t help but complain.

“That’s probably what extreme passion looks like.” Since it was his mother Yu Xian was complaining about, Li Qianfan couldn’t say much.

After chatting briefly, the two returned to the office.

Yu Xian moved the toolbox next to the Flame Wood and deftly pulled out a carving knife, gently scraping it across the surface. To her surprise, the scrape left no mark on the Flame Wood, which made her press harder, yet still without leaving any trace.

“Qianfan, are you sure you unsealed it?”

After several failed attempts, Yu Xian curiously looked at Li Qianfan.

Li Qianfan immediately replied, “I’m sure I unsealed it.”

Yu Xian shook her head gently, “It still won’t cut. This knife is specifically for cutting wood, and under normal circumstances, a light scrape should leave a mark.”

“Don’t worry, let me check.” Li Qianfan approached the Flame Wood and gently placed his palm on it.

With a thought, a stream of True Qi wafted in his palm and after injecting it into the wood, he quickly found the reason: the Power of the Solar Terms was indeed gone, but the wood still contained some Spiritual Energy, which was why the carving knife couldn’t leave a mark.

Li Qianfan said, “Sister Xian, no big issues. Due to my carelessness, some Spiritual Energy still remains in the wood. We just need to extract it.”

Yu Xian said, “Then please go ahead and extract the Spiritual Energy.”

Upon hearing this, Li Qianfan didn’t respond but immediately placed his hands on the Flame Wood. Although the remaining Spiritual Energy wasn’t much, in this era of scarce Spiritual Energy, every bit was precious and had to be cherished.

Seeing this, Yu Xian immediately stood up and stepped back to give Li Qianfan more space, even holding her breath, afraid to disturb him.

Activating the Dragon and Phoenix Mystery Skill, a suction force immediately emerged in the palm of Li Qianfan’s hand. The Spiritual Energy stored in the Flame Wood quickly gathered toward his palm. As the Spiritual Energy entered his body, he felt increasingly hot and furrowed his brows slightly, wondering why this Spiritual Energy was so searing.

After a moment’s thought, Li Qianfan realized why.

Flame Wood grew only in extremely hot places, so the Spiritual Energy formed in such places was also extremely hot.

Next, without overthinking, Li Qianfan rapidly absorbed the Spiritual Energy from the Flame Wood. About seven or eight minutes later, as he absorbed enough Spiritual Energy, he felt his body getting hotter and hotter, as if he had fallen into a furnace.

“Huff, huff, huff!”

Gradually, Li Qianfan’s breathing became rapid, his cheeks turned red, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

“Qianfan, what’s wrong?”

Yu Xian, alarmed by Li Qianfan’s condition, immediately asked.

“The Spiritual Energy in this Flame Wood is very hot; I’ve absorbed it all into my body, and it’s so hot.”

The feeling of heat intensified, causing Li Qianfan’s speech to tremble.

“I’ll turn on the air conditioner.” Yu Xian immediately ran to turn on the air conditioner and set it to the lowest temperature.

Although the room’s temperature quickly dropped, it was like a drop in the bucket for Li Qianfan, almost ineffectual.

Furthermore, as Li Qianfan absorbed more and more Spiritual Energy, the heat inside his body grew even more intense, with sweat continually pouring out, quickly soaking his clothes, and his skin turning redder, as if about to bleed.

Fire poison!

Soon, Li Qianfan understood everything. Since Flame Wood grew in the hottest places, absorbing too much of its intensely hot essence over time could turn into fire poison.

Excessive absorption of fire poison could cause severe damage to the body.

“Qianfan, maybe you should rest and stop continuing.”

Seeing Li Qianfan in such a state, Yu Xian’s eyes filled with worry, and she immediately said,

“At this point, there’s no other choice.”

Li Qianfan stopped circulating the Dragon and Phoenix Mystery Skill, and when the suction in his palm ceased, the Spiritual Energy stopped pouring in as well. But just when he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a terrifying suction force suddenly emerged from within the Flame Wood, devouring the True Qi in Li Qianfan’s body at an extremely fast rate.

What was most terrifying was that the Flame Wood was also devouring Li Qianfan’s vital energy, and the rate of devouring was very fast.

What the fuck??

This sudden change scared the hell out of Li Qianfan. He tried to remove his hands from the Flame Wood immediately, but to his despair, his hands were stuck to the Flame Wood, unable to be pulled away no matter how hard he struggled.

As Li Qianfan struggled, the devouring power released by the Flame Wood became even stronger.

The True Qi and the vital energy were being devoured at an extremely fast rate.

At this speed, he would soon be sucked dry into a mummy.

At this moment, his Dantian also became restless and was shrinking rapidly.

Having no choice, Li Qianfan had to circulate the Dragon and Phoenix Mystery Skill again and continue absorbing the Spiritual Energy from the Flame Wood. When the suction reappeared, the Flame Wood indeed stopped its backlash, but as Li Qianfan started extracting Spiritual Energy again, his body temperature began rising extremely fast.

Damn it!

The current situation made Li Qianfan curse out loud, realizing that either way, he was facing death.

If he didn’t want the Flame Wood to backlash, he had to completely drain the remaining Spiritual Energy; but the problem was, if he absorbed too much Spiritual Energy mixed with fire poison, he would also die from his body exploding.

After a quick analysis, Li Qianfan realized the severity of the situation, and a look of despair that he couldn’t hide appeared in his eyes.

“Li Qianfan, what’s wrong?”

Yu Xian, noticing the despair in Li Qianfan’s eyes, immediately asked.

“Xuan Sister, I… I think this piece of wood is going to kill me.” Li Qianfan turned his head and said with a forced smile.

“What?” Yu Xian exclaimed in surprise, completely confused by Li Qianfan’s statement.

“Not only does the Spiritual Energy inside this piece of wood contain strong fire poison, but the wood also backlashes. If I don’t drain all the Spiritual Energy, the wood will backlash against me. If I continue to extract Spiritual Energy and the True Qi in my Dantian overflows, I will die from an explosion…”

Li Qianfan explained briefly to Yu Xian.

“…”

Upon hearing this, Yu Xian was completely dumbfounded, being an ordinary person who couldn’t think of a solution.

As more and more fire poison was absorbed, Li Qianfan’s body began to feel a stinging pain, and his Dantian was expanding at an extremely fast rate, potentially exploding at any moment.

No… I can’t keep absorbing!

Otherwise, I’ll really die.

But if he stopped, he would be devoured by the Flame Wood, which was also a death sentence.

“Hey, I’ve thought of a solution.”

Suddenly, Yu Xian exclaimed excitedly.

Li Qianfan immediately turned to look at Yu Xian and asked, “Xuan Sister, what solution?”

Yu Xian asked seriously, “Is there a way for you to release True Qi? To keep your Dantian from reaching a full state?”

At this suggestion, Li Qianfan’s eyes lit up, but his expression soon turned helpless and he said, “That’s indeed a good method, but the problem is, I’m constantly entangled by this piece of wood and simply don’t have the time to release the True Qi.”

“Then… then what should we do?”

Yu Xian was also panicked, her frantic eyes filling with tears.

After all, Li Qianfan was helping her, and if something happened to him, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Just as both were sinking into despair, suddenly an idea popped into Li Qianfan’s mind. He immediately turned to look at Yu Xian and said, “Xuan Sister, don’t cry, I’ve thought of a way that seems to let me release some True Qi.”

Yu Xian immediately asked, “What’s the method?”

Li Qianfan looked down at his pants and said, “Xuan Sister, perhaps you don’t know, every time a cultivator ejaculates, it consumes a lot of True Qi. If I can ejaculate now, maybe I won’t explode and die.”

“Can… can this really work?”

Yu Xian was initially stunned, then lowered her gaze to Li Qianfan’s bulging pants and asked.

“Of course it’s effective.”

Li Qianfan said seriously, “But now, both my hands are stuck to the wood, and I can’t do it myself. If possible, could you help me do it just this once?”
