A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 14 Mia’s Parent–Teacher Conference

William had moved away by then. As he admired Gwendolyn’s beautiful body, he explained, “While training your internal vigor, you injured the Lesser Yin meridians of the Lung Channel in your hands. I’ve opened them up now, so naturally, your body would react to the illness. Don’t worry. You’ll be fine after

this.”

That reassured Gwendolyn. “Thank you, sir. Your skills are just godlike. I’ve always felt a heavy weight on my chest that made it hard to breathe. It’s so easy to breathe now.”

He nodded. Then, he reached out to the table as if he was thirsty. She hurriedly moved over and handed him his cup. “Have some tea.”

In the distance, Walter was secretly observing them. He was so impressed with William’s character when he saw that William was treating Gwendolyn with a blindfold on. Unbeknownst to him, William could see her body even with the blindfold on. Walter might be spitting our blood from rage if he knew.

After a cup of tea, William began to inquire about Gwendolyn’s training. He pondered on what he was told for a while and mused, “The training method you used before is problematic. You need to build up both yin and yang energies, or you will hurt yourself.”

Then, he amended her cultivation method and told her to follow his adjusted plan.

She was considered adept in the field. Hence, when she heard what he said, her eyes lit up. “Amazing! You actually thought of that. Even though I haven’t trained in it yet, it already feels far better than what I was doing before.”

He placed down his teacup. “Alright. It’s time to treat your right arm.

Just like that, he had the chance to touch her body once more. This time, she obediently let him as she was not as nervous as before.

Once he treated both of her arms, he told her, “You can put your clothes on now.”

She frantically redressed herself and straightened out her clothes before saying, “I’m done now.”

He took off the blindfold. “You should be fine if you follow my instructions.”

for saving It was then that Walter walked back into the room. The Zuch Family is eternally grateful to you Gwen’s life. Please allow me to show my respect.”

William stopped him from bowing. “It is no problem. Don’t worry about it.”

“Mr. Barrett, can I get your contact details?” Walter asked. “The Zuches are based in Justford. You have to tell me if you ever visit. I will personally show you around.”

He was frankly still hoping that Walter would help him break through to the Qi State.

William knew what Walter was thinking. So, after a moment of hesitation, he wrote down his phone

number.

Walter immediately held our a check and said, “Thank you for your hard work. This is a tiny show of my gratitude.”
