Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Divine Artifact

As the pot emitted steaming heat, she meticulously adjusted the flame, making it gentle and stable.

She then slowly sprinkled the gathered herbs into the pot, simmering on low heat, occasionally stirring gently with a wooden spoon.

The air was filled with a faint herbal fragrance, carrying hints of mystery and hope.

The injury on Jiang Ziling’s leg was actually complicated, with severe bone misalignment, and the road to recovery was bound to be full of pain.

But this ancient remedy contained an incredible power.

By skillfully combining the herbs with the five elements of metal, firewood, clay, and water, and through prolonged simmering, the medicinal effects were maximized.

This type of herbal mud not only penetrated deep into the skin but also promoted bone regeneration.

It felt like a warm and powerful force, providing deep comfort and repair to the injured area.

For Jiang Ziling, this was the beginning of both pain and hope, and an important step toward his rebirth.

As sounds from the bathroom gradually ceased, the carefully crushed herbs had already turned into a fine paste.

The air was filled with a faint herbal aroma mixed with moist steam, creating a tranquil and mysterious atmosphere.

Su Yu glanced inadvertently and saw Jiang Ziling stepping out of the bathroom.

His deep black hair, wet and clinging to his shoulders, cascaded down like a waterfall.

Sparkling water droplets slid slowly along his smooth hair, shimmering with a subtle yet captivating luster.

Under the soft glow of the dim light, his breathtakingly beautiful face was even more veiled and enticing.

It was as if all the beauty of the world had converged here, forming an enchanting and beautiful bathing scene that captivated the heart and soul.

Su Yu thought to herself that if he were to take off his clothes at this moment,

the beauty would be even more indescribable; with this thought, she couldn’t help but blush and secretly smile to herself.

“Ah Yu, are you alright? Is there anything I can help with?”

Jiang Ziling noticed Su Yu’s distracted expression and quickly asked with concern.

Su Yu, however, was still immersed in Jiang Ziling’s extraordinary beauty.

Without much thought, she candidly expressed her inner thoughts, “Why are you wearing those? Come on, take them off for me to see.”

…

As soon as she spoke, the air seemed to freeze.

Jiang Ziling was momentarily incredulous, as if he had heard something unbelievable.

He stood frozen, a wave of complex emotions flooding his heart.

Su Yu suddenly snapped out of her daze, realizing she had misspoken.

She quickly covered her slightly open mouth, her cheeks flushing red, her embarrassment overflowing.

She swiftly racked her brain to find a remedy, “I mean… you should take off your pants, um, so that I can… no, I mean, so it’s easier for me to treat and heal your wounds!”

Jiang Ziling’s face briefly showed a trace of embarrassment, then he softly acknowledged with a slightly stiff movement.

Su Yu, in turn, pretended to be engrossed and

busied herself with sorting the herbs on the table, trying to hide her own embarrassment.

As Jiang Ziling slowly stepped towards the bedside, his gaze gently fell on Xixi, who was already sweetly asleep. He carefully pulled the blanket over her, ensuring she would not catch cold.

Then, Jiang Ziling sat down by the bed and slowly began to undo his trouser leg.

This series of actions revealed an unspeakable tenderness and meticulousness.

Although Su Yu reminded herself to maintain propriety and not to peer indiscriminately,

her eyes couldn’t help but stealthily drift towards Jiang Ziling, her heart a mix of trepidation and curiosity.

She always feared that peeking might bring bad luck, yet this discreet curiosity now made her guard quietly relax.

She couldn’t help but want to take another look at the man who demonstrated a unique charm in everyday trifles.

As dawn broke, Jiang Ziling, with a heart filled with both anxiety and anticipation, had completed all his mental preparations.

At the same time, the medicinal mud carefully prepared by Su Yu slowly emitted a warm, slightly bitter scent.

It was like a secret whisper from the depths of nature, heralding the beginning of healing.

This medicinal mud, comprised of various finely ground rare herbs mixed with clear spring water, was skillfully blended by her hands, finally solidifying into a dark green viscous substance.

Placed in an ancient copper pot, it was initially gently awakened by a gentle flame, until it boiled and then was exposed to a fierce, blazing fire.

This concentrated the medicinal properties in every drop of the liquid, which was then carefully poured into a blue-and-white porcelain bowl, quietly waiting to cool, like a silent old man brewing wisdom over time.

Su Yu took a small lump of the medicinal mud, adding a few drops of clear spring water.

She deftly kneaded it into a dark green pill and gently placed it in Jiang Ziling’s palm, “This pill will help alleviate the pain that is to come.”

Her voice was gentle yet resolute, like a warm breeze in spring, brushing across the heart.

Jiang Ziling took the pill and swallowed it without hesitation, followed by a pristine white handkerchief handed to him by Su Yu, her eyes carrying an unquestionable seriousness, “Bite down on the handkerchief, don’t let yourself suffer additional harm during the process.”

Jiang Ziling complied tightly, a strange sense of security surging in his heart, thinking it was a Divine Artifact to counter the pain, unaware that this was just a clever psychological defense arranged by Su Yu to lessen his fear of the unknown pain.

With everything ready, Su Yu directed Jiang Ziling to gently rest his injured leg on a specially made low stool.

It created a subtle balance, ensuring that the leg was completely suspended during the treatment without any external interference.

She herself held a uniformly smooth, comfortably gripped stick in one hand, while gently touching the distorted joint with her other hand, where the bones seemed to be played by fate, tangled together, desperately needing a precise and brave release.

After taking a deep breath, Su Yu precisely targeted, and suddenly, power converged like streams into a river, bursting forth in an instant.

With the quiet clicking sound of the bones easing back into place, Jiang Ziling’s body uncontrollably trembled.

A difficult to describe sound suppressed deep in his throat, his hands nearly tearing the bedsheets, veins bulging on his forehead.

It showed he was enduring an almost inhuman torture.

Despite the psychological comfort of the “painkiller,” the real agony still surged like a tidal wave, testing the limits of his will.

Sweat also gradually pearled on Su Yu’s forehead; this was merely the beginning of a tough challenge, with every subsequent step being an extreme test of skill and patience.

During the adjustment of the bones, Jiang Ziling grimaced and groaned lowly.

His body uncontrollably trembled due to the intense pain, like a frail yet resilient boat in a storm.

“Hang in there,” Su Yu’s voice was like a distant lighthouse, giving him the strength to persevere.

She knew well that the pain of setting bones was even worse than that of a fracture.
