Chapter 776: Gayle and Rose
Max stepped closer, his presence solid yet gentle as a mountain breeze. "Can I help you?" he asked, voice calm but edged with a note of firmness. Deep inside, he already knew his light energy was uniquely suited for purification and healing—a natural counter to dark toxins embedded in the body.
Gayle opened his eyes, the whites streaked with crimson veins. He struggled to keep his breath steady, his chest heaving faintly. "I can still hold on for a while," he managed in a hoarse voice. "Can you help my sister get rid of the poison first?"
Max inclined his head with a nod. "OK."
Without hesitation, he moved behind Rose, who sat with her body trembling slightly. Her delicate features were twisted in pain, fine sweat beading on her forehead. Max placed his right palm gently on her back, his hand warm and solid.
Closing his eyes, he summoned forth the gentle glow of his light energy, a radiant golden luminance that pooled around his fingers like liquid sunlight.
As the light energy began to pour into Rose’s meridians, it radiated through her body in slender currents, intertwining with the medicinal power of the detoxification pill she’d taken.
Where the pill alone had failed to penetrate, the light energy now surged deep into the hidden recesses of her form—seeping into marrow, cleansing muscle fibers, and unraveling the invisible net of poison that had gripped her organs and channels.
A low gasp slipped from Rose’s lips as a wave of relief washed over her. Her eyes slowly fluttered open, bright and shining for the first time since the ordeal began. Her cheeks bloomed with a healthy flush, banishing the purple pallor from her face.
he glanced shyly back over her shoulder, a faint blush rising to her cheeks as she whispered, "Thank you for your help." A hint of embarrassment flickered in her eyes, as though she could feel how thoroughly Max’s power had swept through every corner of her body, leaving nowhere untouched.
