Chapter 924: Sealing

Back to Chapter List
The young physician, her cheeks flushed rosy, huddled in her thin blanket, her bright eyes fixed on Xiao Yan with a gaze so intense it seemed they would overflow with red. Being stared at like this, Xiao Yan felt a bit embarrassed, and with a determined effort, he said, "Indeed, the seal requires..." Seeing Xiao Yan's awkward expression, the young physician's rosy cheeks slightly softened. She bit her lower lip, straightened herself like a mermaid, and with a slightly trembling hand, gently removed her robe... As delicate fingers gracefully traced the fabric, it slipped silently to the ground, revealing a bare, delicate form as pure and smooth as jade. This sight caused Xiao Yan's breath to subtly deepen—he could hardly maintain his composure; in such a setting, anyone else would surely find it difficult to remain calm. He clenched his teeth, mentally slapped himself hard on both ears, then forced his gaze away. Taking a deep breath, he managed to keep his voice steady: "Lie down now..." Witnessing Xiao Yan's composed demeanor, the young physician's initial shyness and nervousness gradually eased. She followed his instructions, slowly lying down, then gently closed her eyes. With a glance at the young healer lying down, Xiao Yan took another few deep breaths to calm himself as much as possible, then slowly extended a single finger. At the tip of the finger, a shimmering green flame flickered in and out. "There might be a bit of pain, but just bear with it," Xiao Yan said softly. He held the finger suspended in the air for a while before suddenly bringing it down, finally pressing it onto a spot beneath the young healer's neck and over her breasts. As the touch landed, a series of wisps of white vapor rose from the healer's smooth, jade-like skin, with a faint gray hue subtly visible within the mist. As the vapor rose, low, muffled sighs escaped from the young healer's lips, her brows slightly furrowed, looking especially endearing. As his fingers moved, a faint green dot appeared. Xiang Yan held back the soothing sensation, guiding his fingers along the route of the "Tiandu Fire Seal," slowly descending. With each shift of his fingertip, wisps of white mist rose once more, and a delicate green flame trace gradually emerged across the flawless, art-like body of the young physician. This added green flame not only enhanced the body's perfection but introduced a fresh, wild allure. As his fingers continued to glide, Xiang Yan's expression grew increasingly serious. He now needed to maintain an exquisite balance of temperature in the flame—precise enough to complete the seal without causing any harm to the young physician. His fingers, like brushes, moved gently over her body, drawing intricate, interwoven lines. Where these lines intersected, a subtle, mysterious elegance radiated forth. As one after another pale green traces of flame appeared upon her body, Xiao Yi Xian gradually acclimated to the burning pain. Then, a peculiar sensation began to spread slowly from her heart, bringing her great comfort. Yet, her reserved grace caused her to bite her lips tightly, suppressing any sigh or moan. Under this delicate tension, the porcelain-like skin of her body subtly flushed with a delicate pink hue, appearing dreamlike and enchanting, captivating the very soul. Xiao Yan now focused his gaze on his nose, his nose on his heart, his mind fully concentrated. His fingers, following the seal pattern in his mind, moved slowly and gracefully, tracing it out... As Xiao Yan's fingers traced the pattern, a fire-etched pattern imbued with subtle mysticism gradually emerged across Xiao Yixian's body. Perhaps due to the seal being about to take full effect, the toxic vapor emanating from within Xiao Yixian grew increasingly intense. Fortunately, Xiao Yan was protected by the extraordinary fire, which instantly evaporated the toxic mist upon contact with its scorching heat. Noticing the changing dynamics of the toxic vapors within Xiao Yixian, Xiao Yan's growing sense of seriousness deepened, and his fingers moved faster and faster, gradually covering Xiao Yixian's entire body with one after another green fire traces. "Oh..." Xiao Yan's fingers moved faster and faster, and the peculiar sensation within Xiao Yi's body grew increasingly intense. That faint burning pain seemed to transform into a strange, pleasurable sensation, until finally, Xiao Yi could no longer contain herself, softly emitting a warm, languid moan from her lips. Seeing Xiao Yixian so calm, Xiao Yan also exhaled in relief and quickly focused once more, drawing out the sealing flame patterns. As the sealing array gradually took shape, the gray-purple toxic mist emanating from Xiao Yixian's body grew increasingly dense. Eventually, each surge of mist would forcefully strike Xiao Yan's body, whereupon upon contact with the emerald flames, it burst into plumes of white vapor and hissed continuously. At this point, even though Xiao Yan was protected by the Lüli Lotus Heart Flame, he began to feel the strain— the toxic mist's corrosive power was truly overwhelming and relentless, as if it would never wane. Under this sustained pressure, the Lüli Lotus Heart Flame enveloping his body gradually weakened. Though his internal qi constantly circulated to sustain the flame, it could not keep pace with the relentless consumption. A thick white mist rose gently before him, accentuating the particularly solemn expression on Xiao Yan's face. He knew this was the resurgence of Xiao Yixian's rare toxic constitution—her body fighting back to prevent him from completing the seal. He was certain that if he failed to finish the seal at this very moment, Xiao Yixian would indeed follow in the footsteps of the previous sufferers of this condition. With a flash of determined resolve, Xiao Yan accelerated the speed of his finger movements, and beneath his fingers, a series of green flame traces swiftly took shape. As he continued to move his fingers, their motions became so rapid that they began to leave trails of faint afterimages. Then, suddenly, his fingers halted, and with a firm press, the flame traces gently curved, forming a flawless, seamless seal pattern. At the very instant the seal was fully completed, a faint, subtle tang of bloodiness finally broke through the barrier of the Lílú Lianxīn flame and seeped into Xiao Yan's nostrils. As soon as that faint fishy scent appeared, Xiao Yan became aware of it immediately, his face instantly changing, a moment of hesitation flickering in his eyes before he disregarded the toxins entering his body. The emerald flames on his palm surged brilliantly, then gently settled upon the small, smooth abdomen of Xiao Yi-Shen—perfectly flat, with not a single bit of excess flesh—exactly at the center of the sealing pattern. This was precisely where energy needed to be channeled to instantly activate the seal! The robust, scorching energy surged forth from Xiao Yan’s palm, then flowed out in slender streams, winding and spiraling along the lines of fire marks. At that moment, the pattern of symbols on Xiao Yi-Shen’s body seemed to come to life, radiating a soft, luminous glow. "Sky Flame Seal—sky for form, fire for spirit—activate!" A sudden cry burst from Xiao Yan’s lips, and at that instant, the light in his palm intensified dramatically. It seemed that the calamitous toxic body had grown increasingly frantic as the seal was nearing completion. A remarkably dense wave of toxic vapor surged forth from every pore of the young physician, so intense that even with the protection of the Líliua Lotus Heart Fire within Xiao Yan, the defense was breached, and the toxic vapor seeped in through every opening. As the toxic vapor entered his body, Xiao Yan's complexion instantly grew pale, yet he clenched his teeth tightly, drawing his hands back sharply, causing the radiant light to dim. The numerous burn marks on the young physician's body gradually faded, as if seamlessly merging into his flesh. When these burn marks disappeared, the toxic vapor ceased its outward overflow, and the skin on her body gradually regained its normal hue—the calamitous toxic body was once again sealed! At the very moment the Ernan Toxic Body was sealed, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes suddenly snapped open, her mouth slightly agape, and a strong suction force emerged. Immediately, the thick toxic mist that had filled the entire room surged violently, then coalesced into a massive dragon-shaped aura, which Xiao Yi Xian effortlessly swallowed whole. Feeling the growing calm within herself, Xiao Yixian exhaled in relief. With a gentle motion of her hand, her robes fluttered and swiftly covered the perfect form beneath. After completing this, she turned her gaze and spotted Xiao Xao lying on the bed. Her face flushed with concern, she quickly helped him sit up, and then saw the pale, grayish complexion covering his face. "Has the toxic qi entered his body?" Seeing him like this, Xiao Yixian felt a sense of ease, hesitated slightly, her cheeks glowing with a delicate warmth. Then, she tilted her head slightly, gently pressing her lips against Xiao Xao's, and gradually, the grayish qi began to rise from his body, flowing through their lips and entering into hers.
