The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1649 Sit firmly on the Diaoyutai

"You're quite low-key too. You clearly have the qualifications to win first place, but you're sitting calmly and not flustered at all..."

Fang Wubing waved his hand: "Don't make fun of me. In a real fight, I might not be able to beat Dugu Ying. Well, if I'm in good health, that's another story."

"My body simply can't handle a direct fight right now, so I fight by using talismans and magic weapons. In short, I burn spirit stones. As long as I burn enough spirit stones, there's no one I can't take down."

"Do you know how I got seventh place? Actually, I didn't want to provoke the original seventh-ranked person. It was his foul mouth that mocked me. I personally didn't care much, but I am the Holy Son of Duobao Dao Sect, so of course I have to consider the sect's reputation. That's why I took action to fight."

"I blasted that guy half to death with talismans and magic weapons, and then I became the seventh. Fortunately, everyone is quite afraid of death, so after I became the seventh, no one usually challenges me. After all, beating me doesn't seem like a very proud thing, and losing to me would probably be even more frustrating."

"The reason I don't challenge for first place is because even if I win, others may not recognize me as number one. Besides, when it comes to burning spirit stones, I can fight even a Golden Immortal, so why should I bother competing for first place?"

"Most importantly, a fight could cost tens of millions of spirit stones. Although I'm not poor, I can't afford to burn through spirit stones like that. You know I never actively seek out fights, it's because I'm afraid of burning through spirit stones."

"If I were a bit more arrogant and warlike, even a billion spirit stones wouldn't be enough for me..."

Lin Chen was amused by Fang Wubing's words: "Weren't you so extravagant when you fought Dugu Ying?"

Fang Wubing laughed and said, "When burning spirit stones, we should burn them with style. If we burn them pitifully, we won't save a single spirit stone. Instead, people will look down on us. If we burn them boldly and make others feel insecure, no one will dare to have any ideas about me. After all, being bombarded with spirit stones by me like this would certainly make people feel very frustrated."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement: "Especially those who think they are stronger than you, but are defeated by your talismans and energy-consuming magic weapons, that is indeed very frustrating. Dugu Ying is almost bursting with anger."

Fang Wubing slapped his thigh, feeling very pleased: "Seeing him want to kill me but unable to do it, I feel really good."

After Lin Chen revealed his identity, the two became much closer.

Since arriving in the Immortal Realm, Lin Chen has mostly encountered immortals. He has seen too much of that superior attitude, that disdain for mortals and even low-level cultivators. Now, meeting Fang Wubing, he has opened his heart to him, which is quite rare.

The drinking session was very enjoyable.

After waking up and washing up, Lin Chen casually asked, "Has Fang Wubing gotten up yet?"

Liu Yuqi replied, "He's already awake. I heard he's feeling very unwell, and his maids are all busy taking care of him..."

Lin Chen was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "You had a good time yesterday, but you're starting to pay the price today. Come on, let me go take a look." Lin Chen went to Fang Wubing's room and saw Fang Wubing lying on the bed with a pale face, curled up, covered in cold sweat. A maid was sitting next to him, constantly wiping his sweat, while another was massaging him to relieve his tense body.

"how does it feel?"

Fang Wubing smiled bitterly, "It's very uncomfortable, but I've gotten used to it. I'll get through it."

Lin Chen sat down on the edge of the bed, examined the patient, and said with a smile, "Let me try giving you a few acupuncture needles."

Fang Wubing's eyes lit up: "You have a way?"

"These are symptoms that your body is showing. I can't cure you without the Phoenix Crimson Blood Pill, but I can alleviate them and make you more comfortable. It should be fine... Take off your outer clothes."

After Fang Wubing removed his outer garments with the help of a maid, he lay flat on the bed. Lin Chen took out silver needles: "Relax, don't resist..."

As Lin Chen spoke, the silver needles in his hand swiftly pierced into Fang Wubing's various acupoints.

Lin Chen channeled his Qi into the needles, and the immortal Qi flowed down the silver needles, stimulating the acupoints. Soon, Fang Wubing felt a slight warmth surging along the meridians at the acupoints where the silver needles had landed. Soon, the warm currents connected, and as the warm currents flowed, the excruciating soreness in his body gradually disappeared.

Fang Wubing's eyes widened: "Wow, that's amazing! What kind of skill do you have?"

Lin Chen replied, "The Heaven-Returning Needle is a technique from the mortal realm."

Fang Wubing felt his body becoming increasingly comfortable, and the discomfort subsided like a receding tide. He was overjoyed: "Your mortal skills can heal the body of an immortal! That's amazing!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "The medical principles are the same. I adapted to local customs and made some changes, and they were quite effective."

When Lin Chen first entered the Wilderness Realm, he felt that all his medical skills were useless. However, as Lin Chen's strength grew and his control over spiritual energy became more and more delicate, he discovered that using immortal spiritual energy to control needles to treat immortals could achieve the same effect as treating ordinary people in the mortal realm.

Soon, Fang Wubing felt all the annoying aches and pains in his body disappear, and he felt much better. He happily sat up in bed and said, "Lin Chen, you are truly a miracle doctor. I'm going to rely on you..."
