Spending a year in the South had changed Mung Si greatly. She was a gifted girl, but way less haughty and more diligent compared to the other geniuses; the exact things that allowed her to exceed her peers. This was proven by how Cloud Palace ranked her first on the Blue Skies Rank.548Please respect copyright.PENANAOPiIyjScgl
At the same time, Mung Si was immensely proud.548Please respect copyright.PENANAIJpsGoroQX
Beneath her cold and fierce exterior, she was a righteous, gentle girl in her heart who would silently lend Chui Yim a helping hand when Chor Kwong Laan bullied him. The saying “have a sharp tongue but gentle heart” was what best described her.548Please respect copyright.PENANAmX10nQB2QM
Furthermore, due to the dissociated energy that led to insomnia, discomfort during noon, and rough cultivation of the Self Winding Wheel, Mung Si grew to become very hot-tempered. Thus, she chose to put up an ice-cold front and acted like a proud phoenix.548Please respect copyright.PENANAgJ1Lxwm7Y7
This wasn't who Mung Si actually was, but she was never willing to lower her pride.548Please respect copyright.PENANApa8vuNf3FA
Here at the Cloud Palace outer sect, she met Chui Yim, the total opposite of her. He was as talented as her yet super rowdy. He spoke loudly and consumed wine as and when he liked, totally unlike a genius but those useless men that Mung Si disdained.
However, such a boy broke records at the age of thirteen by reaching the great master state, surpassing many fellow blacksmiths and glipheons. Not only that, he was so capable that he ended up with a tie when he fought Lam Zaa – who was equipped with the Hundred Streams body – straight up.548Please respect copyright.PENANACbj3vJ355h
Chui Yim's achievements gained him a spotlight in the world, yet he continued to be himself – the country bumpkin with oil all over his mouth after feasting on chicken drumsticks.548Please respect copyright.PENANA5sT0Znv6OI
Surprisingly, Mung Si wasn't worried after hearing about her condition from Chui Yim. She was weirdly… calm.548Please respect copyright.PENANAJNqBmRK3Zw
“Okay, let's do it now and have it settled today.”548Please respect copyright.PENANAxYuqObI8WS
“But…” Her determined answer left Chui Yim in shock. “That's the heart chamber, any slight carelessness-”548Please respect copyright.PENANANdCW4aC19H
“I trust you,” Mung Si stopped Chui Yim coldly. “So let's get to it without wasting any more time.”548Please respect copyright.PENANA4NlGUsCz1h
Chui Yim looked at her helplessly. She could have said it in a nicer tone though…548Please respect copyright.PENANAOUaF1mAaPg
But what do I have to fear if even she's unafraid of death?548Please respect copyright.PENANAqas1VfDwkO
The thought of this fueled Chui Yim.

548Please respect copyright.PENANAo9O2fePFOv
548Please respect copyright.PENANAIvZj0AQXIp
At the same time, Mung Si couldn't understand how she came to trust Chui Yim so greatly, maybe even more confident in him than herself. Could it be how he performs beyond expectations again and again?548Please respect copyright.PENANA8y5G8hsDa2
I might surpass him in gliphism, but if I were to act like him – focus on forging, medicine, and gliphism at the same time, would I still be able to perform with flying colours? Mung Si asked herself, and this helped her feel at ease.548Please respect copyright.PENANAYfzBp2554Q
If even he can’t cure me, then it must be fate.

548Please respect copyright.PENANAu2hOqjvqcM
548Please respect copyright.PENANAdZ8I2lOCNw
Chui Yim focused fully on his professional area.548Please respect copyright.PENANAFRaZSH01Ar
It was a funny sight to watch a pale-skinned bald boy furrowing his brows. However, he did not care about that as all that was on his mind currently was to focus.548Please respect copyright.PENANALTmckyO1qi
He immediately picked up the Thirty-Six Lunar Needles and walked in front of Mung Si. “I’ll have to block your meridians in case of an accident.” However, he was suddenly rooted to the ground and so was Mung Si, who was initially deep in thought, as they both realized she was currently naked!548Please respect copyright.PENANA14xaJ5wi1F
Chui Yim felt his blood pressure surging as well as a high possibility of blood flowing out of his nose. Mung Si was similarly awkward, but she knew that the other party didn’t mean to do so, thus she calmed herself down forcefully and spoke coldly. “Hurry and go to work.”548Please respect copyright.PENANABpQg9TRfIl
Surprised by how calm Mung Si was, guilt consumed Chui Yim. Hello, this is your second time as a human even though you’re just a newbie in this area, but how can you act in this manner when she’s so calm!?548Please respect copyright.PENANAhzvAGwdhdh
Chui Yim took a deep breath to keep his composure. However, he accidentally glanced at Mung Si’s considerable bosom.548Please respect copyright.PENANA2CBwnJViHw
“I’ll dig your eyes out if you steal another glance!” Mung Si was already so embarrassed that she hoped to hide herself in a hole, yet Chui Yim still took his sweet time while stealing glances at her, which felt like being molested by an invisible hand…548Please respect copyright.PENANA0ISVyy0EeB
“Oh, oh…” Chui Yim slapped his cheek to calm himself down.548Please respect copyright.PENANA0KCQWosl5G
Pff!
After regaining his composure, Chui Yim was accurate in his acupuncture.548Please respect copyright.PENANAlNhj3R56ay
He rapidly placed twelve needles down to protect the important meridians of Mung Si’s heart chamber to block the smart dissociation energy from escaping as well as to protect her heart. Every needle was a finger-width apart as twenty-four needles continued landing down on Mung Si to secure the first needles.548Please respect copyright.PENANAuKHk1O4mMh
All thirty-six needles were mixed with Chui Yim’s energliph.548Please respect copyright.PENANAoBHZsalBOi
This was similarly exhausting for Chui Yim. After he was finished, he scuttered around to face Mung Si’s back, which made her chuckle. Mung Si calmed down, yet she couldn’t help but feel slightly disappointed.548Please respect copyright.PENANAXEPONM0Coo
Chui Yim shut his eyes and cultivated the Nine Levels of Heaven’s Flame as well as the Self Winding Wheel to regain energliph. At the same time, he consumed the returning spirit pill.548Please respect copyright.PENANAvPp29EOezr
Mung Si felt uncomfortable very soon. The dissociation energy in her heart chamber stirred restlessly as it sensed that it was being locked in. At the same time, Mung Si experienced rough blood flow since there were needles blocking her meridians. The doubled discomfort had Mung Si’s skin reddening as if she was being burned by fire.548Please respect copyright.PENANAVwyJcifMvp
But being Mung Si, the girl with extremely huge determination that brought her to the refining chamber at a young age, she gritted her teeth and made no noise in order to not disturb Chui Yim.548Please respect copyright.PENANAGiciuEecf3
Finally, Chui Yim opened his eyes abruptly and slammed Mung Si’s back with great force!548Please respect copyright.PENANA1TjcKBpE5R
Pff!548Please respect copyright.PENANAhQ53WEKPoY
Mung Si vomited blood!548Please respect copyright.PENANAS6gHLLXtaQ
A strong energliph gushed into her body fiercely, unlike how it was done carefully previously. Mung Si even wondered for a split second if Chui Yim was taking the chance to kill her when she felt it. But very soon, she regained her trust for the boy standing behind her.548Please respect copyright.PENANAa58NYdpYI6
Chui Yim was sweating buckets as his energliph reached Mung Si’s heart chamber at lightning speed. He was trying to defeat the fast dissociation energy with his speed right now.548Please respect copyright.PENANAZWxKmXJqS8
At lightning speed, his energliph went for the dissociation energy, but it felt Chui Yim’s energliph and escaped the moment Chui Yim arrived!548Please respect copyright.PENANAYeFrHYdSOD
It indeed have survival instincts! 548Please respect copyright.PENANAyq9cQ6mPxd
Chui Yim chased after it fiercely. Since the heart chamber was sealed, there was nowhere for the energy to go.548Please respect copyright.PENANAYmb1OQrsIF
Boom! Chui Yim’s energliph crashed into the dissociation energy, and Mung Si vomited blood once again.548Please respect copyright.PENANAuA4PgHkN0v
Chui Yim was getting anxious, yet he remained calm and pulled the dissociation energy away. The struggle was intense, and neither party was able to concede defeat.548Please respect copyright.PENANAzzzJop1mus
The only victim of their battle was Mung Si, with the battlefield being near her heart chamber.548Please respect copyright.PENANANfN2U6W40M
That was the most fragile area of a human being, so how could she withstand this violent battle going on? Thus, the pool of blood below her feet became bigger again and again.548Please respect copyright.PENANAN6LLrjrXBA
“I don’t care anymore!” Chui Yim gritted his teeth and thrust his energliph into Mung Si’s body to forcefully cut the dissociation energy in half! This was something only a grandmaster could achieve! The dissociation energy that lost half of its battle capability was forcefully brought into Chui Yim’s body by him.548Please respect copyright.PENANAP6rZtZvbNS
As if feeling that it had nowhere to go, the dissociation energy surged into Chui Yim’s body, ready to perish with him!
