Even if Nan Xian could not save her, it would be great if he could ease her pain. 

Qing Han turned to look at Gu Zhenyang, who was chained with a dog chain. Then, her big eyes brightened up and said, "Sure."

Gu Zhenyang had nothing to say.

Who was he?

Where was he?

What was he doing?

Qing Han got closer to Gu Zhenyang as she pulled the dog chain with her pet.i.te hand. Suddenly, she tugged the chain hard causing Gu Zhenyang to suffocate for a moment. His face turned red.

He did not dare to use his spiritual power when Nan Xian was around. Since Nan Xian was focused only on Feng Ruqing at the moment, he wanted to use the spiritual power to break himself free.

However...

His eyes were wild with terror when he tried to make a move.

"Nan Xian, what have you done to me?"

Gu Zhenyang sounded panicked. Why was his spiritual power... gone?

Nan Xian paid no attention to the ruckus he was causing. All his vision was focused on the young girl who was lying on the bed.

Bang! The door was closed shut as Gu Zhenyang's terrified voice was shut off by the closed door—

***

All Feng Ruqing felt in her whole body was pain at the moment! 

The kind of pain that felt like a soul was being torn apart. It was worse than dying.

She huddled up as her face was scrunched up in agony.

Feng Ruqing had finally understood why the green fruit could cause tragic consequences when the side effects started to dawn.

It was because the green fruit contained a great force. The force was strong enough to let Feng Ruqing breakthrough to Dark Warrior tier for the time being. However, when the period was over, the force would be trapped in her body.

Without the bondage like before, the force would randomly move inside her body and hit her muscles and veins. It was painful enough to make her s.h.i.+ver.

However, when Feng Ruqing had understood how the green fruit would tear her muscles and veins, she came up with a way to deal with it!

She tightly gritted her teeth and gathered all the spiritual qi within her dantian. Then, she used the spiritual qi to fight against that force inside her body. 

Such a big crash inside her body had already caused a lot of damage. However, Feng Ruqing did not flinch as she continued to gather the spiritual qi inside her body to strongly counter the force!

Luckily, that dark sword in her dantian was continuously supplying spiritual power to her, which prevented her from running out of spiritual power. So, she had enough power to fight against the green fruit's force...

But somehow, the green fruit's force grew stronger. Her spiritual power already had a tendency to wear off. 

The muscles and veins inside her whole body would be completely damaged if that continued. She would really be in a vegetative state soon!

"Nope, I don't want to be in a vegetative state. I still need to protect my family, and I still have children to foster!"

"I, Feng Ruqing, do not believe that I would lose to a spirit herb!"

Bang!

The infinite spiritual power came when the green fruit's force reached her muscles and veins. Both of the forces were battling inside Feng Ruqing's body. The immediate aftermath had hurt Feng Ruqing's vital organs and made her spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Just as her spiritual power was losing control over the green fruit's force, Feng Ruqing saw a figure suddenly appeared before her dantian...

That was right!

A figure had appeared inside her body!

Feng Ruqing's heart trembled as she panicked when she saw this.
