Chapter 1065: Chapter 1058: The Method of Sealing the Door

The Wolfwoman tilted her head as she entered the room, where the door frame of the Rabbit-ear Clan was somewhat shorter than a normal one, making it very inconvenient for tall individuals like Cheng Ziang and Hu Daoke.

As soon as she saw Feng lying on the bed, her pupils, already dilated, suddenly contracted, and then she grinned, revealing sharp fangs.

This was actually one of the facial expressions of the Wolfman Clan, unrelated to aggression, somewhat similar to an expression of surprise. However, to outsiders, baring one’s fangs was a sign of hostility.

"Is she from the East Continent Clan?" the Wolfwoman turned her head and asked Taran.

"Uh, I, I’m not sure," Taran stammered after a pause, "There are many people like this on the continent, so it’s not strange to have black hair. Luo’er also has black hair, and he is an Elf."

The two conversed in the language of the East Continent. After hearing Taran’s explanation, the Wolfwoman nodded slightly, then looked at Feng, lying on the bed, with suspicious eyes.

"Is there a problem?" Luo’er asked Taran.

"Oh, no, no problem, She is just, it’s her first time seeing so many different people, probably a bit nervous," Taran answered, blinking.

"Alright then, please take a look at her condition," Luo’er said to the Wolfwoman respectfully.

"As it’s a command from Lord Luo’er, naturally we shall comply," the Wolfwoman nodded, then approached the bed cautiously.

Seeing the Wolfwoman loom closer, Feng tensed nervously, her muscles taut as she clung tightly to Luo’er’s sleeve. Clearly, she also misinterpreted the Wolfwoman’s initial expression as hostile.

The Wolfwoman crouched before her and was about to reach out when Feng immediately withdrew her body. Faced with this situation, she looked at Luo’er, somewhat vexed.

"Don’t worry, she is here to check on your illness," Luo’er gently patted her back, comforting her.

"Oh..." Feng stared intently at the Wolfwoman and finally chose to compromise.

"What is the condition of her injury?" the Wolfwoman observed Feng’s complexion for a while and then asked Luo’er.

Luo’er had Taran briefly describe Feng’s injuries. After hearing Taran’s translation, the Wolfwoman frowned in thought, then said to Luo’er, "Sir, please have her undress so I can check the lesions."

"Eh, undress? Oh, I will step aside then..." Luo’er said, turning his head toward Tangmo, intending to let her take over this task. However, Feng was adamantly refusing to let go of his sleeve.

"Turn your head; I’ll take care of it," Tangmo said with a sigh, then sat down next to Luo’er, gently turned his head away, and began helping Feng to undress.

Luo’er averted his gaze. Although he had no ulterior motives, his thin skin made his ears turn red, but his moral integrity told him not to look back.

With Tangmo’s assistance, the Wolfwoman examined Feng’s injuries. About five minutes later, the examination was finally over, and Tangmo also helped Feng get dressed; she was still tightly holding Luo’er’s sleeve.

The Wolfwoman, now in her professional mode, looked very serious. After examining Feng’s injuries, she fell into deep thought. Finally, she called Taran over and started reporting to Luo’er through him.

"I’ve taken a brief look at her injuries. According to the medical records, this method is called Sheng Gate, the most common method used by the East Continent Clan to restrict Qi circulation," the Wolfwoman said seriously.

"That’s great, is there a countermeasure?" Luo’er asked joyfully.

The Wolfwoman indeed lived up to her role as a physician, being able to diagnose Feng’s condition with just an examination, even matching the information held by the Advance Team and others. This meant that since they had some understanding, there should be a way to break it.

"Although this technique is common in the East Continent and easy to treat, it’s estimated that we won’t be able to find the necessary conditions to heal her injuries at the moment," the Wolfwoman said, her voice heavy with a frown.

"Why?" Luo’er asked.

"She’s from the East Continent, isn’t she?" The Wolfwoman did not immediately answer Luo’er’s question, but stared at him as she asked.

"How do you know?" Luo’er had barely spoken when he realized he had let something slip.

"Qiyun Zhoutian, converging at Qitian, this is a cultivation technique unique to the Human Race of the East Continent. Not to mention people from the Western Continent, even we who are considered different can’t learn it." The Wolfwoman ran her hand over Feng’s abdomen, finally pointing to the location of her Qitian.

"Whether she is from the East Continent or not, one could tell with a simple check. Anyone who has learned this kind of technique will have such unique symptoms," the Wolfwoman continued.

"Listen to me, I roughly understand the grievances between you and the East Continent Clan, but Feng grew up in the Western Continent since she was young, and her nature is very kind. I hope you can temporarily set aside the grievances between races..." Luo’er said awkwardly.

"I know," the Wolfwoman nodded and then continued, "As we have received your kindness, naturally we will repay it. Our grievances with the East Continent Clan date back hundreds of years. Honestly, most of us have almost forgotten that history. So I will help you, but..."

"But what?" Luo’er pressed.

"But, treating this condition is easy to say, but quite troublesome to actually do. At least right now it’s not possible," the Wolfwoman shook her head and said.

"Why?" Luo’er asked.

"You see," the Wolfwoman touched Feng’s chest through her clothes and then explained to Luo’er, "She hurts here. In medical texts, this place is called the Sheng Gate, one of the gates that Cultivators from the East Continent are most likely to seal. As long as this gate is sealed, it can generally cause a cultivator to lose all their power..."

"Why is it like this?" Luo’er asked, puzzled.

"A cultivator from the East Continent’s body has two main meridians. The first one is in the front, starting from the Qitian, passing the Sheng Gate, and connecting to both arms. The second is also from the Qitian, passing the back spine to the Zhou Tian. Normally, if a cultivator wants to use Qi in battle, it must pass through the first meridian, releasing from the arms. Hence, by sealing the Sheng Gate, the cultivator can no longer use Qi in battle, only capable of escaping or being bound," the Wolfwoman explained patiently.

However, her explanation contained too many technical terms, and Taran was truly keen but unable to follow, thus he had to call over the village chief, Feron, to barely manage the translation.

"That is to say, that guy didn’t want to kill Feng, but to capture her, so he sealed her Sheng Gate," Tangmo nodded and said accordingly.

"Then why do you say it’s not possible to treat her now?" Luo’er pressed.

"Because we can’t find another Cultivator from the East Continent," the Wolfwoman explained, "This condition isn’t really considered a disease in the East Continent, it simply requires another cultivator to channel Qi from the Sheng Gate directly to break open the sealed gate, but right now we can’t find such a person."

"So can Feng directly break it open?" Luo’er persistently asked.

"No," the Wolfwoman shook her head, then took Feng’s arm and explained to Luo’er, "See, for her to channel Qi, she must pass through the Sheng Gate, but her Sheng Gate has been sealed shut, so in principle, she can’t gather Qi herself to break open the Sheng Gate. If she could gather Qi, it would mean that her Sheng Gate was already open, and she wouldn’t need the steps mentioned above."

"So this falls into a vicious cycle, doesn’t it?" Hearing the translation, Luo’er sighed, helplessly lowering his head.

"I am a Mage, can I gather magic to help her break open the Sheng Gate?" Tangmo raised his Magic Wand and volunteered.

"No, don’t mess around." Seeing Tangmo’s action, the Wolfwoman seemed somewhat panicked and quickly interjected, "The magic power you gather cannot compress into her meridians, only harming her body, and that could be fatal."

"What do you mean?" Tangmo asked, confused.

"It must be pressure," Luo’er pondered for a moment before speaking, "For cultivators like Feng, the magic that condenses is under pressure, forcing magic into the meridians to burst open the Sheng Gate. However, the magic power gathered by traditional Mages isn’t compressed, and messing around could only lead to organ erosion."
