My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

Chapter 6: Golden Needles Treatment



Only the old man and three people from the Ye Clan remained in the room. A middle-aged man of the same generation as the old man watched Lou Mu Yan with eyes filled with doubt. He really couldn’t understand why his eldest brother would believe in a young woman with such a low cultivation base.t

Then coldness surfaced in his eyes. She better not play with them, or else he wouldn’t let her go, even if she as a beauty. He didn’t want to see his eldest brother have hop then fall into despair again.

Lou Mu Yan didn’t care about the looks of the others. She took out a set of golden needles had made specifically for her, channelled a sliver of her Spiritual Energy into them, then pierced them through the old man’s clothes, landing on several of his acupuncture points on his upper body.

Even though her trash body couldn’t absorb Spiritual Force after transmigrating here, she ended up figuring a way to accumulate a sliver of Spiritual Force and convert it into Spiritual Energy within her body. But it sure hurt to use it up after all that effort.

She used her slight bit of Spiritual Energy with the golden needles to treat the old man. This time, she believed, when the old man’s injury flared up, he wouldn’t experience that excruciating pain anymore. She had confidence in her medical skills.

After approximately an hour, Lou Mu Yan’s face began to pale and sweat dripped from her face. It couldn’t be helped—maintaining the coordination between her Spiritual Energy and the golden needles was very energy consuming for this body.

After another hour, Lou Mu Yan retrieved her needles with a face drained of blood. Her body was extremely weak, and she sat on the stool gasping for breath. It sure exhausted her. This trash constitution truly was troublesome.

Meanwhile, the old man was the complete opposite of Lou Mu Yan. Not only was his face rosy, but he was also ecstatic. His meridians that had been blocked for ages finally loosened slightly. He felt a warm current pour into his dan’tian which had been damaged by the sword aura, nourishing it. Seeing Lou Mu Yan’s pale face, he asked with concern: “Little Miss, are you ok?”

Lou Mu Yan shook her head: “It took up a lot of my energy to treat you, but I’ll be fine after I go home to rest for a night. How do you feel?”

“I feel that the blocked meridians are a little looser now. There’s also a slight connection between me and my damaged dan’tian. Will my meridians be completely clear after a few more sessions of your needles?” The old man asked impatiently.

Upon hearing the old man’s words, the faces of the three people beside them brightened with joy, especially the middle-aged man, who was also a little ecstatic.

Lou Mu Yan chuckled and said: “It wasn’t that easy. You need to use some medicine together with the Art of the Golden Needles to be able to completely cure your chronic illness.” Seeing the time of day outside, Lou Mu Yan said: “I’ll return now. Observe the results of my treatment tonight. I’ll come back tomorrow morning.”

“Very well. This old man is looking forward to the results of Miss’s treatment.” The old man said with a rare smile.

By the time Lou Mu Yan returned to the Academy, it was already the evening. After briefly eating some food, she knocked out on the bed. The Spiritual Energy within her already dried up and she was mentally and physically exhausted, so she could only temporarily supplement her stamina through sleeping. She simply couldn’t wait to be able to refine that Marrow Cleansing Pill to improve this body’s incompetent constitution, then successfully start to cultivate.

The next morning, as Lou Mu Yan was about to leave, she bumped into Lou Mu Bai.

“Big brother, good morning!” Lou Mu Yan greeted with a smile.

A soft smile appeared on Lou Mu Bai’s extraordinarily handsome face, “Where are you going so early?”

“To the Mercenary Union.” Lou Mu Yan didn’t want to conceal her whereabouts, and she didn’t think she could conceal it even if she wanted to. With the Lou Clan’s power and influence, it wasn’t difficult to track her down in the Imperial Capital.

Lou Mu Bai looked at her in surprise, and asked in befuddlement: “What are you going to the Mercenary Union for?”

“I accepted a mission to the Blazing Mountain Range. I want to go see if I passed today.” Lou Mu Yan replied with a smile.

“Nonsense. Is going to the Blazing Mountain Range a game to you? Do you know how dangerous it is there?” Lou Mu Bai’s expression chilled and scolded her.

Lou Mu Yan understood that Lou Mu Bai was being considerate of her, so she didn’t mind his dissatisfaction. She stepped up to tug at Lou Mu Bai’s sleeve and said mischievously: “Big brother, I want to get rid of my reputation as trash as soon as possible, but the search for the Flame Fruit’s hopeless, so I might as well initiate the attack instead of waiting passively.”

“Who said the search for the Flame Fruit’s hopeless? I came today specifically to tell you that I’ll be heading to the Blazing Mountain Range in two days to help you find the Flame Fruit. You just stay in the Imperial Capital.” A look of helplessness rose on Lou Mu Bai’s handsome face.

Lu Mu Yan shook her head, “Big brother, if a fledgling wishes to soar through the vast sky, then they must first learn to fly by themselves. I want to become stronger, but I don’t want to rely on you guys to grow. And this time, I’m going with the Ye Clan to the Blazing Mountain Range, so it’s not too dangerous.” She hugged Lou Mu Bai’s arm and shook it again, continuing: “Please just let me go, I promise to come back safe and alive.”

“You— Aye! Yan’er, just why are you so stubborn?” Lou Mu Bai sighed, looking at his little sister dotingly and said: “Then I’ll accompany you.”

“Big brother, do you really not trust me? Relax, I promise you that I’ll definitely come back safe and alive. They say ‘if you don’t die from a disaster, there’s bound to be great fortune following’1. I didn’t die last time, so there’ll definitely be no problems this time. Please, just let me gain some training and experience myself.” Lou Mu Yan rubbed her head on Lou Mu Bai’s shoulder endearingly.

“You’re just so stubborn. Forget it, if you want to go, then go. But you must pay attention to your safety, got it?” Lou Mu Bai compromised. His little sister was great in every way, all but her stubborn temper. She simply wouldn’t stop until she hit herself against the south wall2. It wasn’t something that he could change either and even if he did stop her, she’d still sneak away.

After musing, Lou Mu Bai retrieved a yellow talisman from his interspatial ring and handed it to Lou Mu Yan, “This is a Thousand-li Teleportation Talisman. If you’re in danger, use this talisman. It can teleport you a thousand-li3. No matter what, safety first. Even if you don’t find the Flame Fruit it doesn’t matter, prioritise your own life. Big brother will help you enquire about the Flame Fruit in the Imperial City during this time.”

“Thank you, big brother, you’re the best.” Lou Mu Yan took the talisman and put it away.

In this world, Sword Masters could be divided into Alchemists, Smiths, Array Masters, and Talisman Masters, to name a few. It was rather similar to the cultivators in her world. But these professions were scarce here and all of them were treated like treasures, vied for by various entities.

“Honestly, you… Just so wilful.” Lou Mu Bai said dotingly as he tapped Lou Mu Yan’s nose with his slender fingers.

Lou Mu Yan finally tricked her big brother away and seeing that it was already rather late in the morning, she hurried towards the gate of the Academy. Yet who knew that she’d bump into Chi Yi Xuan and Yun Jin there.

“Hm? Isn’t this Mu Yan? Where are you going in such a hurry?” Yun Jin asked with a smile as he blocked Lou Mu Yan’s path as if he and she were familiar with each other.

Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at him. This guy did it on purpose right? Why else would he block her path when she was leaving in a hurry?

“Yeah! I’m in a hurry to leave, please move aside.” Lu Mu Yan didn’t even look at Chi Yi Xuan as she attempted to go around them.

But her behaviour made Chi Yi Xuan feel exceptionally unpleasant. Was Lou Mu Yan playing hard to get? She even pretended to ignore him. He sure wanted to see what tricks she wanted to play.

“Lou Mu Yan.” Chi Yi Xuan called after Lou Mu Yan with a frown.
