Chapter 26 new clients

The door of the Massage House opened, and a young female cultivator entered. Yun Che raised his eyes.

She was an elegant-looking woman, with long black hair partially tied behind her head and a light-blue robe carefully fitted to her body.

She stopped near the entrance. For several seconds, she said nothing. Mei Liang, who was arranging several bottles of herbs behind the counter, noticed the girl’s hesitation.

"Welcome to the Massage House. Is there anything we can help you with?"

The woman looked at Yun Che. "I was referred by someone. My friend’s friend told me that there is someone here with a technique capable of relieving spiritual circulation problems and strengthening the circulation of internal energy."

Yun Che stood up. "You’ve come to the right place."

"Are you the one who performs the treatment?"

"Yes, I am."

She frowned slightly. "Are you sure you’re the one? Don’t take this the wrong way, but you look very young to know such a miraculous technique."

Yun Che was not bothered. "Indeed, I am very young, but that does not change the results of my techniques. You can trust me."

The woman remained silent. Mei Liang approached and said, "If you don’t trust him, you can simply leave."

The disciple looked at her. "It’s not that I don’t trust him, it’s just that..." The girl paused before continuing:

"...It’s simply strange hearing so many comments about a technique that no one can properly explain. I even asked how it worked and what the procedure was, but no one explained anything to me."

Yun Che observed her attentively. "Then try it and draw your own conclusions. As I already told you, the treatment is real, and so are its effects."

The woman took a deep breath. "All right."

She entered the room. The door closed, and the environment became silent.

Inside the small room, the scent of medicinal herbs mixed with the gentle aroma of the spiritual oil prepared by Yun Che. The woman sat down and tried to hide her nervousness.

"What should I do?"

"Relax. Just remove your clothes and lie down on the bed. I’ll take care of the rest."

She obeyed, somewhat excitedly. Yun Che closed his eyes for a moment, and the blue interface appeared before his eyes.

[Analysis complete.]

[Muscle tension: high.]

[Spiritual flow: 52% of normal efficiency.]

[Micro-obstructions detected: 8.]

[Recommendation: moderate pressure.]

Yun Che began. His first movements were slow and precise. The woman remained stiff and quite shy at first.

Little by little, however, the tension began to disappear. Her breathing became deeper, her shoulders relaxed, and her body trembled slightly in response to the touch of his fingers.

She opened her eyes once, as if surprised by the sensation, but said nothing, merely letting out a breathless sigh. Yun Che continued following the system’s instructions.

[Micro-obstruction eliminated.]

[Circulation efficiency: 64%.]

He slightly adjusted the pressure. The woman released a low sigh and then closed her eyes again, gripping the sheets tightly.

The treatment continued in silence. The longer it lasted, the more obvious the transformation became.

Occasionally, moans and sobs could be heard.

The distrustful expression she had initially worn disappeared. Her face became flushed, her breathing quickened for a few moments, and then gradually stabilized again.

When the treatment ended, Yun Che withdrew his hands, slowly removing his fingers.

[Treatment complete.]

[Spiritual flow stabilized.]

[Valid contact.]

[Progress: 3/20.]

The woman remained motionless. She seemed to need a few seconds to regain her composure after her loud cry at the climax of the treatment.

Finally, she sat up. Her hair was slightly disheveled, and her face still retained an obvious blush. She avoided looking directly at Yun Che.

"I..." When she tried to say something, she stammered before trying again:

"I didn’t expect it to be like this."

"What do you mean? Are you dissatisfied with the treatment?"

She became even more embarrassed as she spoke in a voice barely louder than a mosquito.

"On the contrary, it was very good and intense."

Yun Che maintained a calm expression. "Your body was under a great deal of tension. All I did was relieve it to the best of my abilities."

She touched her own shoulder and slowly moved her arm. Her eyes changed.

"The circulation of spiritual energy in my body has improved considerably."

"I also feel lighter."

She rolled her shoulders. Her surprised expression intensified.

"I can feel a slight improvement in my cultivation."

She stood up and adjusted her clothes. For several seconds, she remained standing before him, clearly satisfied but unsure exactly how to comment on what had just happened.

"Thank you."

"You don’t need to thank me."

She nodded and quickly left, taking care not to be seen leaving the Massage House. Mei Liang watched her.

The woman passed the counter with her cheeks still red, her eyes slightly moist, and an expression of satisfaction that was difficult to hide. Mei Liang raised an eyebrow.

"It seems you completely satisfied her with your technique. I don’t think she’ll forget your fingers anytime soon."

Yun Che left the room. "It’s simply the result of the treatment."

Mei Liang let out a small sigh.

"You really can say that so naturally after the kind of treatment you just gave her?"

Yun Che ignored the comment.

"She had several minor obstructions in the circulation of her spiritual energy, making it difficult for her to progress in cultivation."

"Well, if you say so, then fine."

Mei Liang crossed her arms.

"But that’s not the only thing attracting attention."

Yun Che looked at her. "What do you mean?"

"People are talking."

She pointed toward the entrance.

"First one came. Then another. Now there are already disciples asking for you."

Yun Che fell silent. This was exactly what he had expected. He needed it to happen. The mission was still incomplete.

Twenty women. It was an absurd requirement, but at that moment, there was a relatively simple way to make progress. He only needed to turn his technique into something the disciples would willingly seek out.

The door opened again, and another woman who appeared to be just under thirty entered.

"Is this where Yun Che is performing the spiritual energy circulation treatment?"

"Yes, you’ve come to the right place."

"I heard that you can treat pain caused by cultivation in addition to improving circulation."

"That depends on the problem."

She approached him.

"I train every day, and for some time now, my energy has been getting stuck after I finish. I also have a constant pain in my back."

Yun Che observed her.

"Let’s go inside first. I have a room ready for you. I’ll make a diagnosis before beginning the treatment."

The second session was different. The problem was not in her shoulders, but in the accumulation of spiritual energy.

[Analysis complete.]

[Irregular spiritual flow.]

[Residual energy accumulation: high.]

[Recommendation: progressive pressure.]

Yun Che followed the instructions. The woman initially pressed her lips together, but shortly afterward, the tension disappeared.

Like all those before her, her breathing initially became heavy. She closed her eyes.

When it finally ended, she remained silent for several seconds. Then she released a long breath.

"It’s as if my body has become lighter."

Yun Che nodded.

"Because your energy has begun circulating again."

She stood up. Her face was flushed all the way to her ears, and her expression revealed a satisfaction she tried to hide. She had been even louder at the peak than the previous client.

"Now I understand why no one explains exactly what happens here. It’s very intense and satisfying too. Sorry for screaming so much. It’s just that it’s been a long time since I did that."

Yun Che did not respond. She adjusted her robe.

"I’ll come back for another session," she said softly before leaving.

[Valid contact.]

[Progress: 4/20.]

The afternoon passed, and another disciple appeared. After one, another appeared.

One suffered from spiritual fatigue. Another had minor obstructions in her meridians. Another had accumulated impure energy after long periods of training.

Every treatment was different. Each diagnosis required its own approach, and the rumors spread throughout the Massage House.

"He really can do it."

"They said it’s strange."

"It is strange."

"My friend said he has magical fingers."

"Then why are you going to try it?"

"Because it works, and it’s really good."

"During the treatment, my body trembled so much that I thought I was going to explode from pleasure."

"His fingers went so deep that I came several times."

"If just his fingers made me tremble, I can’t imagine what he could do with his sword."

"Do you think he accepts doing the full treatment?"

"Damn! I can’t get his fingers out of my head."

"Did you see his expression during the treatment? So calm and confident."

"Enough, enough."

"Let’s not talk about this anymore."

"Why?"

"Can’t you see that I’m already wet?"

"Seriously?"

"Me too."

"Do you think we should come back just to have more of those fingers?"

"Senior Brother, you’re so naughty. Don’t you have a boyfriend?"

Yun Che was oblivious to the nonsense the disciples were saying about him. With every new client, the number increased.

[Progress: 5/20.]

[Progress: 6/20.]

[Progress: 7/20.]
