Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 1265 - 562: Turning Their Schemes Against Them

On the side of the attic where Li Xiangrou was staying, she was tossing and turning in her room at that moment.

She just felt a wave of heat rushing through her whole body.

Like there were ants crawling all over her.

It made her feel as if her whole body was on fire; this flame of desire made her feel like she was about to lose control.

So she staggered to her feet, intending to go out and take a bath to ease this feeling.

But in the end her strength gave out, and she fell straight to the floor.

Yet her delicate body was still trembling.

Downstairs, Ning Qi heard the noise.

"Did you hear something?"

He asked curiously.

"No."

The Medicine Spirit shook his head. "Master, maybe you misheard."

"I didn’t mishear, there’s definitely something going on."

Ning Qi said with absolute certainty, "Come on, let’s go up and see what’s happening."

"Okay."

After the Medicine Spirit agreed, he followed Ning Qi upstairs.

They quickly reached the upper floor, and he knocked on the door.

"Li Xiangrou."

He called her name directly, but no one came to open the door.

That made Ning Qi anxious.

So he ignored the fact that this was a lady’s boudoir, and simply forced the door open.

He saw Li Xiangrou already lying on the floor, her whole body trembling.

Her cheeks in particular were flushed bright red; clearly something was wrong.

"Master, she’s been hit with a Charm Medicine."

The Medicine Spirit itself was condensed from Pill essence, so of course it could see the signs at a glance.

"Oh? Someone drugged her?"

Ning Qi’s brows furrowed. "Do you have a way to help her?"

"This is too easy. As long as I absorb all the Medicinal Power, it’ll be solved in no time."

"Strictly speaking, I’m the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Medicines—whoever sees me has to behave themselves!"

The Medicine Spirit said carelessly.

"Good, I’ll leave it to you then."

Ning Qi nodded, then let the Medicine Spirit step in to help.

The Medicine Spirit walked over to Li Xiangrou, examined her carefully, then directly spread his hands open.

At once, strands of condensed light surged out from between his fingers.

That condensed light was a lush green color; as soon as it appeared, it rushed toward Li Xiangrou lying on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, it enveloped her completely.

Threads of it flowed into her body.

All of it was Life Aura; once it entered her, it began to disperse the Medicinal Power inside her body.

That Medicinal Power resisted at first, but after feeling the pressure coming from the Medicine Spirit, it immediately submitted.

Like that, the Medicine Spirit easily forced it out of her body.

Once this Charm Medicine was driven out, it was instantly gathered by the Medicine Spirit in front of himself.

Forming a fist-sized clump of filth.

Under his control, it kept spinning.

"Master, this is it."

The Medicine Spirit held it condensed and came before Ning Qi as he spoke.

"How is she?"

Ning Qi only glanced at it, then asked in a low voice.

"She’s fine now, and she won’t be in any danger."

"I left a portion of my Life Aura in her, so she won’t suffer any harm."

The Medicine Spirit looked at Li Xiangrou, then continued, "She’ll be fine after a good sleep."

"Mm, all right."

Ning Qi nodded, then with a wave of his hand, he helped Li Xiangrou up.

Using his Immortal Demon Power, he easily lifted her and put her back onto the bed.

Once she was laid flat on the bed, he finally checked Li Xiangrou’s complexion.

By then, her color had already returned, and her body was no longer trembling.

Her breathing had become even as well, as if nothing had ever happened.

"Master, she’ll be fine, don’t worry."

"If you’re still concerned, I’ll stay here tonight. If anything happens, I’ll help her!"

Seeing Ning Qi watching Li Xiangrou, the Medicine Spirit quickly spoke up.

"All right, then you stay."

Ning Qi had been waiting for that; hearing the Medicine Spirit say so, he immediately agreed.

"Got it! Master, go get some rest!"

"With me here, I guarantee she’ll be safe!"

The Medicine Spirit nodded with a smile, then urged Ning Qi to go rest.

"Okay, I’ll leave her to you."

Ning Qi nodded, then hurriedly left.

After going downstairs, he returned to his own room.

Then he sat cross-legged and began to regulate his breathing.

The night quickly passed; when dawn arrived, Ning Qi woke from sleep.

After getting up, he went to the main hall.

He heard movement upstairs; clearly Li Xiangrou had woken up.

After tidying herself up, she came straight down.

She happened to see Ning Qi there as well.

"Ning Qi!"

She stepped forward to greet him.

"How are you feeling?"

Ning Qi looked at her and asked with concern.

"Ning Qi, thank you. You helped me again last night."

Hearing his question, Li Xiangrou continued to thank him.

"Oh?"

"What are you thanking me for?"

Ning Qi smiled, half joking as he asked.

"Of course I’m thanking you for saving me again!"

"If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been in real trouble yesterday..."

Li Xiangrou said quickly.

Her voice dropped lower at the end, so only she herself could hear it.

The blush on her face had already spread to the tips of her ears.

"Oh? Then you shouldn’t be thanking me either."

Ning Qi smiled again and pointed at the Medicine Spirit on his shoulder. "You should be thanking him."

"Him? Who is he?"

Hearing this, Li Xiangrou couldn’t help looking curious.

She had no idea someone else had saved her.

"Come out."

Ning Qi finally looked at his shoulder and said with a smile.

"Whoosh!"

In the next moment, the Medicine Spirit, who had been keeping his form hidden, finally revealed himself.

He was a child no bigger than a thumb, his little face full of smiles.

"He is..."
