236: recovery?

"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me!"

A beautiful young woman was being chased around the courtyard by a disheveled Old Madman wielding a rattan cane.

The woman was Lin Zhao, and at this moment, she was running around full of vigor.

She had woken up three days ago.

At that time, the Mature Woman had pointed a finger at her glabella, and after that, she became incredibly sleepy.

Then, the Old Madman who was chasing him found a drop of milky white liquid from somewhere and fed it to her.

At that time, Lin Zhao's heart was incredibly resistant.

Because she really couldn't accept a dirty old man.

Feeding her such an unknown liquid.

However, at that time, she was too weak to refuse.

After waking up, Lin Zhao immediately called out to her master through the ring.

However, there was no response, and even the ring itself looked much older and worn.

Although she hadn't lived with her master for long, Lin Zhao had come to regard him as her family.

Based on the situation at the time, she already understood that all of her family had been wiped out.

In other words, in this world, the only person close to her was her master.

But now, even her master...

The grievances in her heart made Lin Zhao cover her face and cry bitterly.

Then, Lin Zhao discovered that she could move, and not only that, her body felt incredibly strong.

Standing up, her back didn't ache, her legs didn't hurt, and all her injuries had healed.

Including all the scars on her body, they had all disappeared.

Her skin was as good as a newborn baby's.

Not only that, she also discovered that her cultivation had actually broken through to the Yuandan Realm.

And not just newly entering the Yuandan Realm, but the third stage of the Yuandan Realm.

This, this made Lin Zhao not know what to feel.

Her family's misfortune, her master's misfortune, and now her sudden cultivation breakthrough, made it impossible for Lin Zhao to be happy.

But she also knew that to take revenge, she could only pull herself together; she had to work hard, cultivate diligently, and gain power.

All of a sudden, Lin Zhao was full of drive.

Then, the ripe Mature Woman appeared as if on cue.

As soon as Lin Zhao woke up, she came in.

Thus, Lin Zhao also learned from her what had happened.

It turned out that she had been interrupted during a semi-finished random teleportation.

A semi-finished product was already very unstable and dangerous, and then someone interrupted it.

In such a situation, it was almost impossible for her to survive.

Even a Heaven Profound Realm expert would die if they encountered this.

And indeed, she had not successfully escaped from the teleportation.

However, in the vicinity, the Old Madman had sensed a faint spatial fluctuation.

So, the Old Madman, by a stroke of luck, rescued Lin Zhao from within.

He brought her to this house and began to treat her.

As for what the Old Madman fed her, it wasn't some strange liquid.

It was Gui Ling He Yuan Lu, a liquid that takes tens of thousands of years to condense under extremely harsh natural conditions.

Even through artificial cultivation methods, it would still take at least ten thousand years.

Hearing what the Old Madman had actually fed her, she realized how precious this item was.

Now, Lin Zhao only wanted to say, is there any more, can she have another drop?

At that time, the Mature Woman, seeing Lin Zhao's believing look, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually, at that time, the Old Madman was delirious and had taken the wrong thing.

What he was going to feed her was really...

However, she managed to stop him in time, and to avoid suspicion and accelerate Lin Zhao's recovery.

She fed Gui Ling He Yuan Lu to Lin Zhao.

However, the Mature Woman continued to explain to Lin Zhao without batting an eyelid.

Through this, Lin Zhao also learned that the Old Madman and the Mature Woman were husband and wife.

It was just that they had cultivated a certain technique in the past, which caused problems with his mental state.

He had become this mad and eccentric, only occasionally regaining his lucidity.

However, the Mature Woman also told Lin Zhao that the Old Madman would not harm anyone; at most, he would play pranks.

Lin Zhao nodded understandingly upon hearing this, after all, he had just saved her.

Originally, Lin Zhao planned to thank them and leave after her injuries had healed.

After all, she had bothered them for so long and used so many resources.

She did want to repay them, but now she was, at most, only at the third stage of the Yuandan Realm.

And they, on the other hand, casually produced a treasure like Gui Ling He Yuan Lu.

The Old Madman could even use spatial power to rescue her.

Such strength was beyond her current ability to repay.

She was not qualified enough yet!

So, she planned to take her leave first and return to repay them when her strength was sufficient.

Moreover, she carried a deep, irreconcilable blood feud!

As for staying here, perhaps she could continue to receive care from the Mature Woman and the Old Madman.

Having such powerful experts around would definitely provide her with great help.

Perhaps they could even directly help her take revenge?

But she couldn't do that; they had already saved her life.

They also helped her heal her injuries and raise her cultivation to the third stage of the Yuandan Realm.

She couldn't assume that just because they saved her, it was something they should do.

Not to mention taking so many benefits from them, but also staying on.

Eating their food and drinking their drinks would only make her look down on herself.

As a person, one might be insatiable, one might be greedy, but one must not repay kindness with enmity.

In her life, Lin Zhao would repay every grudge and every kindness!

Then, Lin Zhao recalled those blood-red eyes, and a hint of hatred flashed in her own eyes.

Because the Old Madman was delirious, she thanked the Mature Woman and bid farewell.

After hearing her, the Mature Woman told her not to leave yet.

The Old Madman, her husband, wanted to talk to her.

But not now; he was still mad and delirious.

Wait a few more days, probably within these few days, the Old Madman should regain his lucidity for a while.

At that time, it was also when the Old Madman was lucid that he rescued her.

However, Lin Zhao was still unconscious at the time and couldn't communicate.

The Old Madman's lucid state didn't last long, so they would have to wait until next time.

So, she hoped Lin Zhao would wait until her husband woke up.

Lin Zhao naturally agreed without hesitation.

They were her saviors and had given her such a precious item as Gui Ling He Yuan Lu.

Both emotionally and logically, it was only right to thank them properly in person.

So, Lin Zhao simply stayed there for the time being.

All day long, she was constantly cultivating.

What surprised Lin Zhao was that after her cultivation realm improved, her cultivation speed not only didn't decrease but increased significantly.

Her cultivation progress in the Yuandan Realm was even faster than when she was in the Qi Sea Realm.

However, during this process, the Old Madman often came to tease her.

Nevertheless, Lin Zhao didn't mind it, and sometimes even played with the Old Madman for a while.

However, just today, while she was playing with the Old Madman.

She accidentally soiled a hanging, very simple-looking but clean handkerchief.

Then, the Old Madman, for some unknown reason, found a rattan cane from somewhere and chased her, hitting her.

Pia!

"Ah!"
