"Your passing through here sure was impressive, digging such a big hole in my wall. Don’t tell me you were practicing how to be mice digging holes!" Gu Changsheng spoke with an air of nonchalance, "Digging through my wall without so much as a hello to the host, isn’t that a bit improper? What do you two lords think?"
Thirteenth Lady Du and Elder Mo exchanged glances upon hearing this.
The very next moment, Gu Changsheng saw an old figure before him turn into a phantom, leap out the window, and flee in disarray!
"Hey! I was just curiously asking, why are you two running?" Gu Changsheng watched the two old men running away, undeterred, she ran to the window and called out softly to their retreating figures.
Damn, why did they take off as soon as they saw Flower Peacock?
With her current kung fu, catching the two of them would be a piece of cake, but after all, they were Zhou Mu’s Secret Guard Lords, and Gu Changsheng faintly felt that Zhou Mu’s relationship with these two wasn’t so simple...
Now, it looked like their relationship with Flower Peacock wasn’t that simple either...
Gu Changsheng held her chin and thought for a while but couldn’t figure it out, so she turned and glanced at the hole in the wall and walked toward the bedroom where Flower Peacock was staying.
Curiosity killed the cat, damn it!
Her curiosity was like a cat scratching at her!
Flower Peacock was still unconscious, and Borjigin Nian, who cherished beauty as life itself, seized every opportunity to be by her side.
Gu Changsheng entered the bedroom, first checked Flower Peacock’s pulse, then examined his external injuries.
Flower Peacock’s external injuries had been treated by the doctors of Liuzhou City and were fine, except his internal injuries were quite severe, his Internal Breath was in complete disarray!
"Nian, you help me keep watch, I’ll treat his injuries!" Gu Changsheng turned to Borjigin Nian, her voice serious.
She had no shortage of anything right now, except for Inner Strength.
The kind that felt inexhaustible, if not now, then when?
"You? You’re barely above average at best! Half filled bottle clanking around, can you really handle it?" Borjigin Nian, upon hearing this, immediately shook his head in disbelief, "You’ve only just acquired Inner Strength, you’re still a novice!"
"Some people are naturally gifted, learning without a teacher is nothing special, like your mother here!" Gu Changsheng assured him, thumping her chest under Borjigin Nian’s skeptical gaze, "Sorting out his chaotic Internal Breath? I can handle that!"
Despite his continued skepticism, Borjigin Nian reluctantly nodded.
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng quickly helped Flower Peacock up from the bed, sat down beside, raised a hand, and placed it on his back.
"Hey! Do it properly, at least cross his legs to look like you’re healing him!" Borjigin Nian was not pleased with the casualness, he stepped forward and spoke up, "This is too careless! Do you even know how to do this?"
"Relax, relax! All those fancy moves look nice but aren’t practical! You have to trust me, trust my ability, I won’t kill your handsome man!" Gu Changsheng said, focusing her Inner Strength into her palm.
Using Inner Strength to heal injuries was a first for Gu Changsheng!
She never believed in such pseudo-scientific things! Yet, now she was a person with Inner Strength!
Even if she hadn’t eaten pork, she had seen pigs walk; after all, she had read Old Master Jin’s and Old Master Gu’s martial arts novels!
She gathered her Inner Strength into strands, slowly infused it into Flower Peacock’s body, and then cautiously guided one strand of Inner Strength to straighten out Flower Peacock’s chaotic Internal Breath.
Although, she didn’t know what the proper state of Yue Xilou’s Internal Breath was, she just did it how she thought was best!
Straighten out the chaos, just get the messy stuff in order!
As Gu Changsheng focused on using her Inner Strength to heal Flower Peacock, she also kept an eye on his complexion, noticing it gradually improved, she breathed a sigh of relief.
What do you call a hit by a fluke? This was it!
Anyway, there was basically no one else in the mansion with Inner Strength like Flower Peacock.
The two live treasures that did, damn it, ran off on sight!
She had to work with what she had, stepping in to do it herself!
Clearly, her method worked!
Seeing Flower Peacock’s complexion regain its color, Gu Changsheng’s mood lifted.
"Wow! I wondered why I couldn’t find mom anywhere, turns out mom is here!" Little Meat Bun pushed the door and entered, his face beaming with joy at the sight of his mother.
"Lower your voice, your mom is busy!" Borjigin Nian saw Little Meat Bun come in, quickly pulled him close, and whispered a warning.
Little Meat Bun looked confused at the two on the bed and then pretended to have a revelation, "Oh oh! Is mom healing Peacock, Lion, and Tiger?"
"Right!" Borjigin Nian looked worriedly at the two, nodding in response.
"Wow! My mom is really amazing! She knows how to heal, too!" Little Meat Bun was proud upon hearing this.
Borjigin Nian rolled his eyes, tapped the boy’s forehead lightly, whispering, "Keep it down! Your mom is basically stumbling onto success, you know!"
"Hehe..." Little Meat Bun covered his mouth, giggling, "Yet mom is amazing! And I thought mom was angry about Uncle Wood’s Letter of Appointment for Marriage, looks like mom’s not mad, and that’s a relief!"
Borjigin Nian looked up to see Gu Changsheng’s expression darken, and quickly covered Little Meat Bun’s mouth, "There’s a time and a place! Your mom hasn’t accepted the fact that she’s supposed to be my senior apprentice brother’s fiancée!"
"What did you say?" The next moment, an angry roar resounded from the bed...
