Chapter 14
Cangyuan Continent was a unique dimension, and a lot of things couldn’t be explained with the usual logic and rationales. Carpenters and renovators with special abilities could easily rebuild a residence in two hours.

Jun Mohuang heard her go on and on as she looked up, and saw Di Lingtian sipping tea.
She’d been happy that Di Lingtian hadn’t followed her into the capital, but now it seemed like she’d gotten too happy too early.
Those bloodshot eyes turned black again, and washed away the air of vengefulness around him. He seemed a little more gentle and harmless now.
It was no wonder Bai Mo wasn’t afraid of him at all, and could call him granduncle without qualms. Sigh, what a silly girl.
“Feng’er, come over,” Di Lingtian called out to her.

A few delectable dishes were laid out on the stone table before him. There was a cushion on the vacant stone chair, as if he was afraid that she wouldn’t feel comfortable in the seat.
Di Lingtian was indeed rather meticulous.
She was just thinking about improving her living environment, but he’d already renovated the place for her. She was hungry, and he’d already prepared dinner. Even the temperature of the tea was just right, and he’d prepared a cushion for her seat.
Besides the intimidating demeanor in the beginning, she had to say that this man was pretty good.

It was all quiet in the night when Jun Mohuang woke from her sleep.
She liked midnight when darkness filled the place and it was peacefully quiet the most.
She was sitting on her bed with her eyes closed. All her meridians inside her began appearing in her mind.
This was one of her special powers—introspection. It allowed her to examine her internal organs and systems with a greater accuracy than even X-ray.

She could selectively zoom in on particular areas to further examine them.
This time, she wanted to check out why she’d been unable to cultivate particular skills. Jun Mohuang focused on her meridians and a point of her abdomen while tuning out the other organs.
She saw the hundreds of meridians of various sizes in a complex network all over her body.
During cultivation of skills, the spiritual influence entered the body through the different meridians, and would turn after several full circulations into spiritual liquid which would be deposited in the particular point in her abdomen. The more spiritual liquid there was, the greater the ability.
Hence, both the meridians and the final storage point in her abdomen were important in strengthening abilities.
However, Jun Mohuang’s meridians and abdomen were not in good shape.
Her meridians seemed malnourished and somewhat shriveled up. Some of them were even segmented. Meanwhile, the most critical part of her abdomen appeared shredded by a typhoon; it wasn’t even whole anymore.
It made sense that she hadn’t been able to improve her skills.
It was also no wonder that the apothecaries in Huan Yun hadn’t been able to treat her.
Jun Mohuang put her hands together in another position as she inwardly said, Activate Magic Skill—Intuition.

Besides allowing her to have a sense of her bodily conditions, she could also sense the effectiveness of medicinal herbs. With this ability, she could put together strange herbs and ingredients to create a strange but effective medicine.
After some sensing, Jun Mohuang smiled. Thankfully, her meridians and abdomen hadn’t been irreversibly damaged. They were in a bad state, but they could recover.
It would take another half a year for her condition to become irreversible and incurable.
As for medicinal herbs to restore her meridians and abdomen… Di Lingtian had already prepared some for her.
When those herbs entered Huangyu Space, she’d already sensed the strong restorative effects of those medicines, but she needed a while more to figure out how exactly to use them.

Jun Mohuang turned on the Moonlight Crystal and sat at the vanity table. She took the jade-horned python crystal and some medicinal herbs out of Huangyu Space.
