Chapter 146: Quick Healing

Chen Mei, knowing how much her grandmother doted on her, gave a sweet smile before turning her gaze to Lin Feng’s current condition.

Despite her expression, it was clear she remained deeply worried about the severe injuries he had sustained.

Chen Qing also recognized the severity of the situation.

She raised her hand, picking up the acupuncture needles she rarely used these days, and carefully placed them one by one along Lin Feng’s back, infusing each with a trace of spiritual energy.

The moment the needles pierced his skin, Lin Feng’s natural ability to restore itself accelerated.

This effect was particularly potent due to the flesh regeneration pill he had just consumed.

Chen Qing, however, wore a look of shock.

The instant her needles touched Lin Feng’s body, she sensed something peculiar about his physique.

How is his physical body this strong? It feels more like that of a spiritual beast than a human!

And it’s not just that—his regenerative abilities are far beyond what someone at his cultivation level should possess!

Chen Qing’s hands moved faster and faster, and after a brief adjustment, it became clear that she was gradually beginning to live up to her former title as the number one medicinal practitioner in Silverpine City.

What a lucky brat, earning my granddaughter’s favor...

She thought to herself with a hint of irritation. Yet, when her gaze fell upon Chen Mei’s worried expression, she sighed inwardly.

She supposed there was no need to make her granddaughter even more anxious.

All right, let’s just get this over with. I don’t want to waste my time in this dump.

Her eyes swept across the surroundings in distaste.

Despite being one of the most powerful figures in Silverpine City, she clearly disliked staying within Wei Clan territory.

Lin Feng, on the other hand, had little room for stray thoughts.

His sole focus was ensuring that his injuries healed properly without leaving lasting damage.

He concentrated on guiding the medicinal energy from the flesh regeneration pill toward his most critical wounds.

However, he couldn’t help but notice something strange.

Some of the pain in his body was slowly being siphoned away, as if it were being absorbed by something unseen.

Though he didn’t understand why, it allowed him to focus more on the deep wound in his chest.

Whatever he was doing, it was clearly working.

The massive wound stretching from his shoulder down to his waist was slowly closing, and if one looked closely, the torn flesh seemed to be stitching itself back together.

At that moment, Lin Feng truly grasped the value of medicinal pills.

I can’t believe this thing is so effective!

He marveled inwardly.

After just a few minutes of absorbing and redirecting the medicinal energy, he felt the last remnants of it deplete.

Yet, the results were undeniable—the gaping wound had fully closed.

Though it wasn’t completely healed and would likely take a few more days to recover fully, the sight alone filled him with relief and joy.

Alright, with this... I’m probably not gonna die anymore.

Lin Feng finally opened his eyes after a few minutes of focusing on healing his injuries.

However, the moment he did, he was immediately met with the sight of two people—and a humongous Frostvenom Python.

The first person he saw was Chen Mei. Her deep purple eyes, paired with her pure black hair and flawless white skin, made her look like a painting come to life.

The worry in her gaze only added to her charm, making her appear soft and almost ethereal.

She’s so beautiful...

Lin Feng found himself momentarily dazed.

Yet before he could even think about snapping out of it, someone else did it for him.

A low, quiet rumbling suddenly echoed in his ears—not enough to harm him, but it carried an unmistakable sense of warning.

What the heck was that supposed to b—

His thoughts were cut short as he caught sight of Chen Qing.

Standing with her arms behind her back, she gazed at him and Chen Mei with a sharp, knowing look.

In that instant, Lin Feng realized something crucial—this incredibly powerful old lady had just witnessed him gawking at her granddaughter.

And from what he had gathered so far...

She’s also Chen Mei’s grandmother.

Crap!

Lin Feng stiffened, his body instinctively tensing despite his injuries.

He quickly averted his gaze, pretending as if he hadn’t just been caught admiring Chen Mei.

However, Chen Qing’s narrowed eyes told him she wasn’t fooled in the slightest.

A tense silence settled in the air. The Frostvenom Python, coiled a short distance away, let out a faint hiss, its icy breath misting in the cold air.

Lin Feng gulped. He wasn’t sure which was more dangerous right now—the massive spirit beast or the old lady standing before him.

Chen Qing finally broke the silence with a scoff.

"Hmph. Brat, it looks like you’ve recovered enough to start having improper thoughts."

Lin Feng felt a chill crawl up his spine. "Senior, I—"

She raised a hand, cutting him off.

"Spare me the excuses. Hmph. Mei’er, why are you even worrying about this fool? You should be focusing on your cultivation, not babysitting some reckless boy who can’t even keep his eyes to himself."

Chen Mei blushed slightly but remained firm.

"Grandmother, he just went through a life-threatening battle. Of course I’d be worried."

Chen Qing clicked her tongue in annoyance.

"Worried? Hah! A proper cultivator should be more worried about their own future."

She glanced at Lin Feng, her gaze sharp and assessing.

"Well? You’re still alive, aren’t you? You’re not going to waste my granddaughter’s kindness, are you?"

Lin Feng took a deep breath and met her gaze head-on.

He didn’t know why, but even with her overbearing presence, he felt the need to prove himself.

"Of course not," he said firmly. "I won’t waste this opportunity."

Chen Qing studied him for a moment longer before turning away with a huff.

"Hmph. See that you don’t."

As the tension finally eased, Lin Feng released a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding.

He shot Chen Mei a grateful look, but before he could say anything, the Frostvenom Python suddenly let out a low hiss, its body shifting slightly.

Chen Qing’s expression darkened.

"We’ve lingered long enough. This place isn’t safe, and I’m not interested in dealing with other Wei clan bastards. Brat, if you’re strong enough to stare at my granddaughter, you’re strong enough to move. Get up."

Lin Feng forced himself to his feet, ignoring the lingering soreness in his body.
