Chapter 78 Attending the Banquet
Ning Xuan closed her eyes and did not open them. For some reason, she was in good spirits when the acupuncture had just been completed, but as she walked all the way back, she felt more and more tired.

"I don't want to drink water. I have a headache. Come here and give me a massage." Ning Xuan said with her eyes closed.

"Okay, Master." Lin Mo quickly put the water cup back, walked gently behind Ning Xuan, and pressed his slender fingers on both sides of Ning Xuan's forehead.

Lin Mo's fingers were quite strong as he slowly rubbed Ning Xuan's temples. His technique was a little awkward and Ning Xuan could feel that his strength was uneven, sometimes heavier and sometimes lighter. Obviously, he might not have done this before.

However, Lin Mo had been observing Ning Xuan's reaction. After just a few minutes, he had adjusted the strength of his hands evenly to the strength that Ning Xuan felt most comfortable with.

Lin Mo saw that Ning Xuan's breathing gradually became steady, her furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and her tense mood slowly eased.

Under Lin Mo's massage, Ning Xuan's head fatigue gradually eased, and was replaced by a feeling of drowsiness. Although it was a bit abnormal, she didn't feel anything wrong with her body, so she decided to take a nap.

Seeing her open her eyes, Lin Mo immediately stopped and asked, "Master, do you feel uncomfortable?"

"No, you pressed it very well. I'm sleepy and I'm going to take a nap." Ning Xuan said.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go and tidy up the room for you." Lin Mo had lived here before and was familiar with all the supplies here.

However, when Lin Mo saw the items placed in the bedroom, he was still surprised for a moment. The sheets and quilt covers were made of Tiancan silk, and the pillows were filled with Moon Goddess Flowers that could help people calm down and concentrate. What was even more outrageous was that the entire mattress was made of energy crystals. He had never enjoyed such treatment when he stayed at the Seven Star Divine Mountain.

Lin Mo's fingertips brushed across the Tiancan silk sheets, smoothing out every wrinkle. At the same time, he condensed the fire energy in his palms, heating every inch of them.

When Ning Xuan lay down on the bed, she smelled a delicate floral fragrance. A pure energy came from the mattress beneath her and enveloped Ning Xuan.

Lin Mo stood with his hands hanging in the shadow cast by the bed curtain, watching Ning Xuan quickly fall into a deep sleep.

Lin Mo was about to lower the curtain when Yan Fuzhen grabbed his hand and looked seriously at the little white cat that had been hanging on Ning Xuan.

"Do you think this little thing seems to have grown a little bit!" Yan Fuzhen's eyes were too sharp. The little white cat trembled in fear and nudged itself into Ning Xuan's arms again.

"Really? It looks the same as before!" Lin Mo said hesitantly.

Yan Fuzhen put his hand on Ning Xuan's pulse. Ning Xuan's heartbeat was strong, her breathing rate was normal, her mental strength was stable, and she seemed to be fine.

Ning Xuan frowned, turned over and faced inside. Yan Fuzhen lowered the curtain and withdrew.

Ning Xuan slept for three hours. Upon waking, she felt refreshed and her blood boiling, a sign that she had accumulated too much special energy. She immediately sat cross-legged in meditation, reciting the "Spirit Induction Sutra" and practicing. Since her companion spirit awakened, Ning Xuan had refined some of the special energy into light particles in her blood, some into her meridians and acupoints, and a small amount into her lower abdomen, where it was stored as backup energy.

This time, when Ning Xuan was meditating and practicing, a small amount of refined energy overflowed from her body and was absorbed into the body of the little white cat.

Ning Xuan had just finished regulating her breathing when she heard voices coming from the outer hall. She heard Lin Mo's voice, "Aunt, the contract master has fallen asleep and hasn't woken up yet. Let's go eat after she wakes up."

Ning Xuan looked at the time on the computer and stretched. She didn't expect that she had slept for such a long time after just arriving in a strange place.

Zhu Hongying smiled and said to Lin Mo, "Miss Ning, you have worked so hard to treat Yun Han. There is no rush to eat. Let's go after she wakes up."

Ning Xuan came out at this time, "Mrs. Zhu, I'm sorry to have made you laugh. I just had a nap and I'm not hungry. Why don't you go see the patient again?"

Ning Xuan planned to give Yun Han another injection. If Yun Han still didn't respond, she would have to leave. The time for the Alchemist Competition was getting closer and closer, and she had to practice more medicine-making techniques to prepare for the competition.

"Miss Ning, don't worry. It's getting late today. I have prepared a banquet to welcome you. The treatment can be put off until tomorrow. Come on, I have a collection of fine fruit wine that has been treasured for hundreds of years. It is sweet and mellow, and can cleanse impurities in the body. It is very rare. Come with me to have a taste." Zhu Hongying looked much better than in the morning, and she seemed quite high-spirited.

The reason why Zhu Hongying was not in a hurry to let Ning Xuan give Yun Han acupuncture again was because Zhu Hongxing said that Yun Han's vitality has been slowly increasing, and there is no trend of exhaustion or slowing down. He suspected that the acupuncture method used by Ning Xuan in the morning had taken effect, and it was obviously continuing to take effect, so there was no need to frequently increase the stimulation.

"No, I still have to go back to compete..." Ning Xuan wanted to refuse, but Zhu Hongying held her hand and said, "There's no need to rush. You came all this way for Yun Han, so I have to treat you with the best."

Zhu Hongying enthusiastically brought Ning Xuan to the magnificent banquet hall in the main hall of the Seven Star Mountain. Ning Xuan looked at the hall in front of her that looked like a heavenly palace and was amazed. Compared with this place, the place she had just lived in could only be considered quiet and elegant.

The banquet hall was very spacious, with the floor paved with jade-carved lotus-patterned bricks. As it was late at night, rows of glazed phoenix lanterns were suspended in the air, with the wicks burning with red flames, illuminating the entire hall with a magnificent golden brilliance.

In the middle of the hall is a gorgeous jade table that is more than ten meters long. The tablecloth on it is made of an unknown material, but it has a ripple-like sheen. Exquisite animal meat delicacies are scattered on the table. The animal meat is crystal clear and cut into thin slices. The fine wine in the exquisite cups exudes bursts of fruity fragrance.

This was the first time Ning Xuan had seen such an exquisite, delicious, and appetizing banquet since she came to this world.

Zhu Hongying felt that her son's condition had improved, so she was in a good mood and entertained Ning Xuan warmly. Ning Xuan also tasted the food carefully. After drinking the fruit wine, Ning Xuan's interest in eating became even higher. This was a kind of fruit wine, sweet and mellow. When she drank it, a warm current surged in her stomach, which was very comfortable. Under Zhu Hongying's persuasion, she drank one glass after another, and gradually became a little drunk.

Yan Fuzhen looked at her with some worry, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not stop her.
