"Old Director, I told you to just call me Xiaoyi. There's no need for such courtesy." Wei Zhao waved a hand. "And curing you won't be any trouble at all. Shall we begin right now?"
"Won't be any trouble?" The old director was slightly taken aback at his words, somewhat dumbfounded. "I can call you Xiaoyi, that's fine, but you curing my illness... is that really true?"
Having heard Wei Zhao explain the root of the old director's ailment in detail, Yu Xiaoke was no longer grieved. She knew that White Leader's problem was the same as the old director's—if both were caused by damaged meridians, then Wei Zhao must have a way to heal them!
And Yu Xiaoke knew Wei Zhao well: he kept his word and never spoke rashly of things he was not sure of. If he said it could be cured, then it truly could be cured! At that thought, Yu Xiaoke grew excited at once. "Old Director, if Wei Zhao says so, then he's sure of it!"
"Oh?" A strange light flickered in the old director's eyes. Truly, if one could live, who would choose to die? The old director had already made her peace with it, but now that such hope stood before her, she could not help asking with a measure of longing, "Wei Zhao, will curing me be very troublesome? Will it drain a great deal of your energy?"
"Draining, certainly—but not too troublesome." Wei Zhao shook his head with a smile, then said, "Shall we begin now?"
"Now? Then how should I cooperate with you?" the old director asked quickly.
"You don't need to do a thing." Wei Zhao smiled, once again took hold of the old director's wrist, and set the third layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art in motion, beginning to rapidly repair her meridians!
What followed was visible to the naked eye. The meridians within the old director's body were restored, and the vitality of her organs returned. Just as with Granny Sun back then, her youthful beauty immediately began to show itself!
So it was with the old director as well. Before, her skin had been dry and her face heavily wrinkled, but under Wei Zhao's treatment the wrinkles on her face grew fewer and fewer, until it regained its former smoothness! The old director was a cultivator who had always taken good care of herself; it was only after her injury that she had turned frail and doddering. Though she was just past forty, she had looked nearer sixty or seventy—but now she was gradually growing young again!
Sixty... fifty... forty... thirty!
The old director's face was growing younger by the moment. She was in fact forty years old, and if she returned to the state of a cultivator, she would look about thirty—after all, the old director had once been a Mystic-rank, even Earth-rank expert!
