Lin Zhifei’s appearance shattered the stalemate.
When Lin Tianfeng came back to his senses, he gazed at Chu Liuyue with mixed emotions and said, “Ms. Dugu, go ahead and help Zhifei first.”
Chu Liuyu smiled faintly in return. “Oh? What about Young Master Lu?”
“I’ll personally settle this matter myself. You don’t have to worry… Ms. Dugu.” Although Lin Tianfeng didn’t speak loudly, his tone carried a hint of irrefutable authority.
“Thank you then, Master Lin.” Chu Liuyue smiled and then turned around to leave without the slightest bit of hesitation.
Lin Tianfeng frowned.
Hearing that, Lu Yi finally understood where the problem was. He gasped as he looked incredulously at his sister. “What are you saying, Sis? Dugu Yue… She… She’s the heavenly doctor who came knocking on the Lin residence’s doors to help treat Lin Zhifei?!”
The unexpected news rendered Lu Yi’s mind blank. Although he was rude, impudent, and impetuous, he wasn’t stupid. Never mind if she was just some random heavenly doctor, but she just had to be Lin Zhifei’s heavenly doctor. He could tell that Lin Tianfeng seemed to be quite trusting and protective of her. On top of that, Lin Zhifei himself had spoken up on her behalf.

Lu Yi knew very well that the reason he could behave so lawlessly in Grotto-Heaven Cliff was that he had the Lin family’s protection. Be it Lin Tianfeng or Lin Zhifei, neither were people who he could openly offend.
It was only after Chu Liuyue left that Lin Tianfeng turned his eyes back to the pair of siblings and silently pulled his arm out of Lu Yu’er’s arms.
Lu Yu’er’s heart sank, and she secretly regretted not getting to the bottom of the matter before they brought it up to Lin Tianfeng.
“Yu’er, did you know about this matter?” Lin Tianfeng calmly asked.
Lu Yi quivered.
“You said that Dugu Yue injured eight of your men?” Lin Tianfeng asked.
Lu Yi nervously swallowed his saliva and nodded.
Lin Tianfeng stared at him. “Good. Then, tell me how you had planned to deal with her with those eight men!”
…
“Thanks for your help, Fourth Young Master.” Chu Liuyue thanked Lin Zhifei immediately after entering his room.
Lin Zhifei sat down, looking as nonchalant as before. “Don’t mention it. This isn’t a big deal.”
“You’ve saved me a great deal of trouble.”
Lin Zhifei smiled and then took out the pill. “In that case, can we start now?”
Chu Liuyue’s expression became slightly serious as she nodded.
…
Under Chu Liuyue’s watchful gaze, Lin Zhifei swallowed the pill.
The pill instantly melted in his mouth and transformed into a blazing hot energy stream that flowed down his throat, filling his entire windpipe and quickly spreading toward his organs.
It didn’t take long before Lin Zhifei felt a piercing and numbing pain from all over his body as his face and body flushed red. It was like he had ants biting his Yuan meridian.
His hand sent the things on the table sweeping to the ground.
“Draw out the force from your pearl of essence and perform a small Heavenly Cycle!” Chu Liuyue shouted.

Lin Zhifei gritted his teeth and closed his eyes before trying to circulate the force in his body forcefully. Bone-piercing pain immediately spread throughout his body.
His Yuan meridian—which was almost entirely covered with a strange thing—was now covered by the pill that had transformed into a scorching aura and flowed into his Yuan meridian. As such, when he started circulating his force, he had to control his force to pass through the blazing aura. In this process, his force would inevitably come into contact with his delicate Yuan meridian, which was what caused him extra pain. He felt as if countless burning sharp blades were slicing off his Yuan meridian.
Soon, blood started trickling from the corners of Lin Zhifei’s lips. The blood, however, was black in color.
…
To Lin Zhifei, this was probably the most arduous time he had ever gone through—every minute and second felt long and grueling. In fact, he seemed to have exhausted his energy a long time ago, and his body had almost become numb to the pain. But whenever his mind was starting to get muddled, he could always hear a clear voice saying, “You’re halfway there, Fourth Young Master. Please continue.
“Your organs are cleared. It’ll be ending soon.
“Just a bit more before this Heavenly Cycle ends…”
The voice kept him awake again and again, but he himself didn’t know how he had managed to last through it. In the middle, he could vaguely feel a warm force flowing into his body, which helped him recover a lot of his strength.
He wanted to open his eyes, but this simple action was just simply too painful and too tiring to do so. Besides, he was constantly urged to continue the process. He knew who the voice belonged to, so he clenched his teeth and tried his best to get through the pain.
After some time, when he finally couldn’t take it anymore, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
As she waved her hand, a stream of fire immediately shot out and enveloped that bead.
