Inside Liu Ruyan's room, Wang Cheng and Liu Ruyan looked at the snake gall that Lu Fan had taken out, feeling incredulous. The item was clearly fresh, having been removed from the snake not long ago. However, the notion that it could cure Liu Ruyan's illness seemed hard to believe. If it were that simple, why couldn't so many renowned physicians cure her?
"Xiao Fan! Can this truly cure my illness? How should I take it?" Liu Ruyan asked, her large eyes blinking. She didn't doubt Lu Fan's words, but this snake gall was as large as an egg, and it was said to be extremely bitter. How could she possibly consume it?
"Miss! You cannot consume this. It is said that snake gall can contain parasites, which are very harmful to the body!" Wang Cheng was genuinely worried. After all, he had never witnessed Lu Fan's medical skills. It was out of the question to take risks with the young lady's health.
"Don't worry! I will refine it into a pill, and then you can take it!" Lu Fan said, taking the snake gall out of the small bottle. He fetched a bowl of clear water to wash it, then took out several medicinal herbs that had been prepared in advance.
"Refine it into a pill?" Wang Cheng's mouth twitched. Not even a Grandmaster had ever been known to refine pills! This young man claimed he could?
*Thump, thump...* A flame suddenly erupted from Lu Fan's palm, and the temperature in the room instantly rose. Wang Cheng's eyes widened like light bulbs. He watched as the medicinal herbs in Lu Fan's hand quickly turned into a scorched liquid, and the snake gall was rapidly dried into powder, merging with the scorched herbs.
This was too miraculous! Wang Cheng swallowed hard. The Liu family also had Grandmaster-level experts, but none of them had ever displayed such a skill, nor had he even heard of anyone possessing it. Lu Fan had completely shattered his perception of power.
A flicker of brilliance flashed in Liu Ruyan's eyes, mixed with a touch of tenderness. She even found this young man increasingly handsome and manly, exuding a powerful masculine charm.
*Swish...* The flame in Lu Fan's hand instantly vanished. A deep red pill appeared in a small medicine bottle in his hand. The pill was somewhat warm, emitting a rich medicinal aroma.
Lu Fan swayed the pill in his hand to dissipate its heat before handing it to Liu Ruyan.
"This... this will really work?" Wang Cheng anxiously asked from the side.
"I dare not say for sure, as this is my first time treating such an illness. However, with me present, there will be no major accidents!" Lu Fan said, looking at Liu Ruyan.
"Mmm! I believe you!" Liu Ruyan swallowed the pill without hesitation. At this moment, even if Lu Fan had given her poison, she would have swallowed it without a second thought, for her heart had already been conquered by Lu Fan.
*Swish...* With a warm sensation, the pill slid down her throat. However, upon entering her body, it instantly transformed into a powerful heat. *Hoo...* Liu Ruyan's delicate face instantly turned flushed.
"Uh... I... I'm hot!" Liu Ruyan couldn't help but softly groan and say.
"Miss! Are you alright?" Wang Cheng immediately became worried and asked urgently.
Liu Ruyan did not reply, but her body was clearly becoming hotter and hotter. Not only was her face flushed, but her entire body gradually turned red, as if a crab had fallen into boiling water.
"Lu Fan! Something is wrong, isn't it?! Snake gall should be a cool substance, so why is Miss's body becoming so hot?" Wang Cheng suddenly looked at Lu Fan and asked.
"This snake has an extremely Yin constitution, and its gall is the opposite, being a nemesis to extremely Yin constitutions." Lu Fan, not expecting such a strong reaction from Liu Ruyan, frowned slightly. He reached out and helped Liu Ruyan onto the bed, then lifted the hem of her lower abdomen's clothing.
"Young man! What do you think you're doing?" Wang Cheng immediately became agitated. This fellow was clearly trying to take advantage of the situation! *Whoosh...* He reached out to grab Lu Fan's hand.
"Uncle Wang... Don't... Don't..." Liu Ruyan hurriedly tried to stop Wang Cheng, but she was so hot at the moment that she felt like she was about to faint.
"Look at her lower abdomen!" Lu Fan suddenly said to Wang Cheng.
Although Wang Cheng did not want to look, as Liu Ruyan was the young lady, and he had watched her grow up, their relationship had always been very good. She had never treated him as a servant but had always regarded him as an uncle. Looking at the young lady's body would be disrespectful. However... he couldn't help but glance.
Huh...? This glance startled him greatly. He only knew that Liu Ruyan suffered from a cold ailment, but he had no idea that there was a white mass, the size of a quail's egg and resembling a spider, on her lower abdomen. Moreover, this white substance, like a spiderweb, was spreading outwards.
However, at this moment, the redness on Liu Ruyan's body was continuously converging towards the white area, devouring it. The white fine lines on Liu Ruyan's body were shrinking at a visible speed.
"Is Miss... will she be alright?" Wang Cheng asked worriedly. After all, Liu Ruyan was sweating profusely and seemed on the verge of fainting.
"She will be fine!" Lu Fan said, but inwardly he was also somewhat shocked. This phenomenon was somewhat beyond his expectations. *Snap...* A hand was placed on Liu Ruyan's back, and a stream of true qi was slowly injected into her body, protecting her heart meridian.
The pained expression on Liu Ruyan's delicate face seemed to have eased considerably.
For a full quarter of an hour, Liu Ruyan's body temperature seemed to gradually decrease. Lu Fan looked at Liu Ruyan's lower abdomen, only to see that the white fine lines had disappeared, leaving only the spider-sized white spot in the center. However, he knew that this was the true culprit, the one that had consumed most of the heat in Liu Ruyan's body. Whether the remaining heat could completely eliminate this white spot was still uncertain.
For a full hour, the flush on Liu Ruyan's face finally subsided, but the white spot on her lower abdomen was still the size of a peanut. Lu Fan couldn't help but frown. The extreme Yin energy had not been completely cleared!
*Ugh...!* Liu Ruyan let out a soft groan and slowly opened her eyes.
"Xiao Fan!" Liu Ruyan looked at Lu Fan, her pretty face flushing slightly. Although she had been in a semi-conscious state just now, she could feel Lu Fan by her side and could feel him using his true qi to protect her heart meridian.
"Miss! You are alright now!" Wang Cheng said with surprise and joy.
"I... I'm going to take a bath!" Liu Ruyan's face turned red. The sweat on her body had soaked her clothes. She had never sweated so much before.
As Liu Ruyan spoke, she tried to get out of bed. Wang Cheng quickly reached out to help her. Just as Wang Cheng's hand touched Liu Ruyan's arm, *boom...* Wang Cheng suddenly felt a powerful force collide with him, forcing him to retreat two steps.
Wang Cheng was stunned. He had expected the young lady to be very weak, but he hadn't expected her to possess such immense power within her body.
"Ruyan! You need to refine the energy within your body into your own strength, otherwise you will not be able to control it," Lu Fan said urgently.
The extreme Yin body had been converted into energy by the snake gall within Liu Ruyan's body. If she didn't know how to use it, that immense power would run rampant and uncontrollably, which would not be good for her body.
"Miss has powerful energy within her? Does that mean Miss can instantly become a strong person?" Wang Cheng's mouth widened in shock after sensing the power within Liu Ruyan. He had practiced martial arts for half his life to reach the Grandmaster realm. For Miss to instantly become a strong person, this... where could one even begin to reason with this?
"Xiao Fan... I... I haven't cultivated before!" Liu Ruyan said, her pretty face blushing. She had only practiced some boxing for a few days, and when it came to refining the energy within her body, she truly had no idea.
"Alright! I'll teach you! Uncle Wang! Please ensure no one disturbs us!" Lu Fan said urgently.
