Chapter 140: Prepared to Extort

Lou Mu Yan finished in one go and performed the Art of the Golden Needles to an exceptionally high level.
The treatment was much better than expected.

Elder Lu’s closed eyes opened instantly, and a gleam of sharp light flashed through his cloudy eyes.

He moved the muscles and bones of his whole body and felt a trace of Spiritual Force spontaneously enter various meridians.
It wasn’t drained as fast as usual, and instead, sunk into the dan’tian along the meridians.

The meridians previously injured by sword auras were all dredged and even the years of internal injuries and hidden illnesses were healed by Lou Mu Yan.

The Spiritual Force in the dan’tian gathered around bit by bit and he once again felt an abundance of Elemental Energy throughout his entire body.
He was so excited tears almost rose in his eyes.

“Young Miss Lou, a mere ‘thank you’ is an insufficient response to such a huge favour, if one day this old man can be of use to you, then please don’t hesitate to give orders.” Elder Lu cupped his hands at Lou Mu Yan with gratitude.

Elder Wu immediately got up and took Elder Lu’s hand to feel the pulse while using his Mental Energy to inspect his meridians.
His eyes were filled with shock, “Is this Art of the Golden Needles a legendary Divine Skill?”

Lou Mu Yan smiled without answering.
She learnt this Art of the Golden Needles from a genius doctor when she turned into a mortal in the mortal world.
Later, she found a Method that could naturally combine with the application of the needles in the Heavenly Grade Alchemist’s place of inheritance.
That’s why whether it was healing mortals or healing cultivators, its effects were all the same.

If one wanted to call it a Divine Skill, then it wasn’t as if they couldn’t.
She had always been very fortunate that she could obtain the inheritance of this Art of the Golden Needles.

Shi Feng pressed his lips together and couldn’t help but stand up and take Elder Lu’s other hand to investigate.
The shock in his heart was no less than Elder Wu.

“Young Miss Lou, this one is truly impressed by your Art of the Golden Needles that you performed.” Shi Feng praised from the bottom of his heart.

His original treatment method was far more dangerous than Lou Mu Yan’s, and it didn’t even heal at this speed or effect.

This kind of Golden Needles Art was something that could even convince the Ancestors of the Shi Clan if they came to observe.

“You two have overpraised, everyone has their own strengths.” Lou Mu Yan smiled modestly, “Moreover, this time, the length of treatment could be so short, and the fact that recovery is much faster than expected, was all thanks to this set of golden needles made by Heavenly Frost Golden Crystals.”

Elder Lu basically recovered after applying the golden needles, but that was in fact actually mainly because of the filtering effect of the green sea of fog in her body, and also the credit of the ice bangle.
Except that it wasn’t good for her to reveal that, so she pushed all the credit onto the golden needles made by Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal.

Of course, the Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal was basically a Spiritual Item birthed from Heaven and earth.
After swallowed by a Demonic Beast, it could even help them shape their yao’fu and break through a bottleneck, so it also had miraculous effects when performing golden needle treatments.

When Elder Wu and Shi Feng heard this, they couldn’t resist twitching the corners of their lips.
She sure spoke lightly.
A Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal was hard to find even in a thousand years.
When Sword Masters obtained a small piece, didn’t they all use it to refine Magic Tools, who’d be so prodigal like this girl.

“Little girl, is this the only set of golden needles made from Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal you have?” Elder Wu asked as he looked at the golden needles in the Thousand-Year Profound Ice Box with fiery eyes.

Lou Mu Yan smiled calmly and said: “Yes.
I got a small piece from Monarch Ming and used it all to refine this set of golden needles.
If Elder Wu wants to forge some, then I could help.” She paused, then blinked and added: “Senior Ye Zhan still has a piece of Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal.”

Ye Zhan looked at her without a good attitude.
This little fox.
The Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal in his hands had greater use.
How could he be such a prodigal like her.

Elder Wu glanced at Ye Zhan and dispelled the thoughts in his heart.
Such a Spiritual Item could only be encountered by chance, so he didn’t force it.

“This old man was just joking.” Elder Wu smiled shyly.

“Elder Ye, don’t you have two Heavenly Frost Golden Crystals in your hand? Can you possibly cut your love and give me a small piece, our Shi Clan will definitely give you a rich gift of thanks!” Shi Feng was a medical madman.
Aside from Alchemy, he also liked to study medical skills.
This time, seeing Lou Mu Yan using the golden needles to heal the illness, his heart also itched to give it a try.

Mu Yi’s eyes moved, and he clasped his fists to Ye Zhan and said: “Senior Ye, our Mu Clan is also willing to spend a high price in exchange for a small piece of Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal.”

Ye Zhan smiled helplessly: “Even though I did obtain two pieces of Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal, but after exiting the Glacial Mountain Range, Lan Si swapped that piece back.
The remaining one is of great use to me, so you two can only think of other ways.”

When the two heard him say this, their eyes revealed disappointment.
They came to visit the Ye Clan this time, one, for the things regarding the Continental Tournament for Hegemony, and two, to inquire about Ye Zhan’s attitude, seeing if he could cut his love and give a small piece.
But now it seems there’s no show.

“Lou girl, you have a deep relationship with Monarch Ming, perhaps you have more Heavenly Frost Golden Crystals?” Ye Zhan turned the conversation on its head and threw the topic to Lou Mu Yan again.

Mu Yi and Shi Feng’s disappointed eyes lit up and they looked at Lou Mu Yan one after the other.

“No more.
It wasn’t easy for me to get some Heavenly Frost Golden Crystal from him to refine this set of golden needles already.
He’s so stingy that he won’t even give me anymore.” She complained with a look of innocence and loveliness.

She secretly said in her head: Ming Xiu, I’ll just borrow your reputation to use a bit.

Her attitude made everyone present think deeply.
With such an intimate tone, the relationship between Lou Mu Yan and Monarch Ming must indeed be extraordinary!

Originally, their attitude towards Lou Mu Yan was more of recognition.
Now, because she had exposed her ability and Monarch Ming behind her, it also made the Ye Clan’s seniors, Shi Feng and Mu Yi, feel the desire to befriend her.

“That’s truly a pity!” Mu Yi pulled out a smile with a little disappointment in his voice.
But those things indeed couldn’t be forced.

“Mu Yan must be tired, do you want to go rest first?” Ye Qing Han saw Lou Mu Yan reveal slight weariness, so he piped up and said with a considerate smile.

Lou Mu Yan nodded: “Mm, it really takes some effort to perform this Art of the Golden Needles.”

“Elder Sister Mu Yan, you can follow me to my courtyard to rest.” Ye Qing Le stood up and walked to Lou Mu Yan’s side, hugging her arms affectionately.

These old guys sure weren’t ashamed of having ideas for Lou Mu Yan one by one.

Ye Chen and Ye Zhan glanced at each other and said with a smile: “Little Lou girl indeed worked hard today.
Go down and have a good night’s rest first.
Tomorrow, let Qing Han and Qing Le take you and the Third Prince to Luo’xi City for a tour.”

“Sure, then Mu Yan will bother you.” Lou Mu Yan replied politely with a smile.

After returning to Ye Qing Le’s courtyard with her, Lou Mu Yan said that she was tired and went back to the room to rest first.

When she returned to the room, she took out some Spiritual Tea to brew, poured two cups, and picked up a cup to taste first, obviously waiting for someone.

Sure enough, it didn’t take long before there were a few very small knocks on the door.

“Senior Ye, please come in!” She whispered.

When she and Ye Qing Le left, Ye Zhan had telepathically told her that he had something to discuss that night, that’s why she prepared herself and waited for him to come.
She also naturally knew what he wanted.

Ye Zhan pushed open the door, then closed it again after entering.

He walked to the place opposite Lou Mu Yan and sat down.
He first took a sip of the Spiritual Tea in front of him, then placed it down and said with a smile: “Little girl really has very good tea-making skills.
But it’s a pity that the quality of this Spiritual Tea is too poor.”

Lou Mu Yan chuckled slyly: “Can’t be helped, I’m too poor, can’t afford to drink high-quality tea, how about Senior Ye aid me a bit financially?”

The last time she met Ming Xiu, she forgot to ask for high-level Spiritual Tea.
Since Ye Zhan took the initiative to deliver himself to her door, then she’d feel too sorry for her own appetite that she had raised to be picky if she didn’t extort some.

Ye Zhan looked at her amusedly and couldn’t help but curse inwardly: “Little fox!”
