My Pretty Campus Queen

"My lady, you and Wu Mengting should go back to your room and rest first, I’m going to treat Chen Tianlong’s injuries now." Hua Sai said.

"Mm, alright. Mengting, let’s go out, otherwise we’ll disturb Divine Doctor Hua while he’s treating the patient." Lady Hua said to Wu Mengting.

"Mm-hmm." Wu Mengting nodded, and the two of them walked out. When they reached the doorway, Wu Mengting turned her head to look back, then closed the door a little reluctantly.

After they left, Hua Sai took out the Super Great Rejuvenation Pill he had prepared earlier from his pocket. Great Rejuvenation Pills were rare Divine Medicine to begin with, not to mention a Super Great Rejuvenation Pill. Of the five that their Patriarch had left behind back then, only two remained, so unless absolutely necessary Hua Sai would never bring one out lightly.

Now that Chen Tianlong could be said to be his successor in the true sense, taking it out was only natural.

So he directly fed the pill into Chen Tianlong’s mouth, then poured a cup of water from the table and let Chen Tianlong drink a couple of mouthfuls, helping him rub his back so the pill would go down smoothly.

Next, Hua Sai helped Chen Tianlong sit upright, took off his clothes, then took out the set of silver needles that went with the Fuxi Nine Needles Heart Method from his pocket. He deftly drew out a needle, warmed it over the oil lamp, then suddenly thrust it straight into Chen Tianlong’s skull. Chen Tianlong’s body twitched slightly, then stopped moving.

Hua Sai repeated the previous action, but this time he inserted needles into different places: two in the back, two in the chest, three in the skull, and one in the armpit. After finishing all this, Hua Sai put his palms together, circulated his Qi, then suddenly struck both palms at once onto Chen Tianlong’s back.

"Pff!"

Chen Tianlong spat out a mouthful of blood forward and then regained consciousness. Hua Sai quickly withdrew the needles, and then sent Powerful Qi into several of Chen Tianlong’s acupoints. Immediately, Chen Tianlong’s entire body burned unbearably hot, as if he were about to explode. Suddenly he let out a roar, thrust both palms toward the sky, and the teaware around them trembled under the surge of Inner Strength.

After this movement, Chen Tianlong suddenly collapsed limply onto the bed. Hua Sai gave a satisfied smile, propped Chen Tianlong properly on the bed, pulled the quilt over him, and walked out of the room.

Gu Yuxin was startled by the sound just now. She had been not far from the door, and she ran over at once, only to see Divine Doctor Hua opening the door.

"Divine Doctor Hua, how is Chen Tianlong?" Wu Mengting asked anxiously.

"Er, don’t worry, he’s fine now. All the clotted blood has been forced out. His meridians have hardly been damaged. Brother Chen Tianlong’s constitution is astonishingly good. But right now he’s very weak, so you’d best not disturb him. Let him rest for one night and talk tomorrow." Divine Doctor Hua said with an easy smile.

"Thank you, Divine Doctor Hua." Wu Mengting said gratefully.

"What are you thanking me for? Don’t forget, he’s my disciple. If I don’t save him, who will?" he said, and walked off chuckling.

Wu Mengting suddenly saw the light. Right, Chen Tianlong was already Divine Doctor Hua’s disciple. At once she brightened up and slowly walked back to the guest room, because she knew Chen Tianlong was safe and sound now.

Sure enough, early the next morning, Chen Tianlong woke from his dreams feeling much better. He immediately got out of bed, but his head felt a bit heavy and his feet light, and he almost fell.

He poured himself a cup of water and drank it, feeling much better afterward. Just then there came a knock at the door, followed closely by a gentle female voice.

"Chen Tianlong, are you awake yet? I’m coming in, alright?"

"Mm, come in."

Chen Tianlong’s voice was a little hoarse, clearly because of the injuries from yesterday.

Hearing his voice, Wu Mengting knew that Chen Tianlong was more or less fine, so she hurriedly pushed the door open and went in. She happily sat down to the side and stared blankly at Chen Tianlong.

At this moment, Chen Tianlong felt a little ill at ease. Why did Wu Mengting seem a bit off, just staring at him like that?

"Mengting, is there something on my face?" Chen Tianlong asked in puzzlement.

"Hehe, no, I just wanted to take a good look at you, Chen Tianlong." Wu Mengting said, her face flushing red.

Chen Tianlong smiled faintly, revealing two deep dimples. At this moment, everything between the two of them went without saying...

"By the way, I’m going home to see my father in a couple of days. I haven’t been back for so long, I really miss him." Wu Mengting suddenly said.

"Mm, alright. Then in a couple of days I’ll go back with you to pay my respects to the elder." Chen Tianlong said readily.

"Ah? You mean you’re willing to go back with me?" Wu Mengting asked in pleasant surprise.

"Of course I’m willing. I’m his son-in-law after all."

Chen Tianlong had returned to his usual cheerfulness, and deliberately teased her.

"Ah? You bad guy, you’re making fun of me. When did I ever say I’d marry you?" Wu Mengting’s cheeks were flushed, and she was extremely shy.

"Heh heh, your father already agreed. How could you not?" Chen Tianlong deliberately countered.

"Hmph, you’re bullying me. I’m not talking to you anymore." With that, Wu Mengting ran out.

Chen Tianlong knew she was joking, so he shook his head with a wry smile, stood up, and walked toward the door.

Ever since he started cultivating the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, Chen Tianlong felt that his physique had undergone a qualitative leap. No matter how serious the injuries looked on the surface, his meridians and internal organs were actually very well protected.

Chen Tianlong walked out into the main hall and saw the fine weather outside. His mood immediately lightened a lot. He quietly enjoyed this moment of peace, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curling up as he revealed a long-lost smile.

Just then, Hua Sai happened to pass by and saw Chen Tianlong enjoying nature, so he walked over with a smile.

"Disciple Chen Tianlong, it seems your body has already recovered." Hua Sai said with a smile.

"Yes, I felt much better when I got up this morning. Now I basically feel normal." Chen Tianlong replied happily.

"Mm, during your treatment last night I already noticed that your physique is very good. From what Wu Mengting said, you should have taken an attack twice as strong as your Unity of Man and Sword, yet your internal organs and meridians remained in such good condition. That’s truly rare." Hua Sai recalled what had happened yesterday and took the opportunity to praise him.

"Hehe, maybe."

Chen Tianlong did not reveal that it was because he practiced the Secret Manual. This was something he only needed to know himself. Too many people knowing would cause unnecessary trouble.

Time passed without incident. The next day, Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting came to bid farewell to the Hua Sai couple. Wu Mengting told Divine Doctor Hua that she was going home to see her father, and they very much approved.

"Then, Chen Tianlong, you must protect Wu Mengting well. After all, she’s a young woman. You should shoulder more of the burden in everything." Lady Hua said with a smile.

"Heh heh, leave it to me." Chen Tianlong replied with an overconfident grin.

With that, the two of them left Hua Mansion together and headed straight for Good Sword Manor. As they walked, Chen Tianlong suddenly remembered Senior Brother Wu Guangzu and Gu Yuxin from that day, and he stopped in his tracks.

"Mengting, do you think Senior Brother Wu and the others are alright? And what about Gu Yuxin?" Chen Tianlong suddenly asked.
