"Trying to take advantage of me again!"

"No, I'm a gentleman. I was just curious."

"Yeah, right! I dare you to ask your dear aunty the same question!"

"Who said I didn't?"

Yino replied naturally without thinking. Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Upon hearing this, Jinyue blinked in surprise.

Thinking of the unspeakable locations of the totem marks on her body, she incredulously said with a red face: "Then... did she really show you?"

"No, she didn't. When I asked, she said something about reporting me to my father..."

At this point, Yino sighed quietly and clicked his tongue: "To be forgiven, I had to wash her feet for a week."

"Puhaha~ So you have times when you're bullied too!"

As Yino naturally changed the subject, Jinyue's attention was already diverted, and she couldn't help but laugh.

But just as Jinyue was most relaxed, Yino, quick-eyed and quick-handed, bent his index finger and suddenly pressed the knuckle against the acupoint of the tattoo on Jinyue's sole.

"Eek--!"

In an instant, Jinyue's laughter abruptly stopped, her entire body instinctively tensing up again.

She struggled to escape the magical grip on her foot's acupoint, but Yino's grip was strong. Having caught her off guard, he wasn't about to let go of her defenseless little foot.

"Ayaaah~ It hurts, it hurts..."

The pain piercing her heart made the foxy girl unable to speak coherently.

Her body became weak, and all she could do was moan hopelessly.

Yino firmly held her ankle, continuously injecting spiritual energy through the pressure point until it thoroughly penetrated all the meridians in Jinyue's entire foot.

"Nyyaaah~~!"

For a moment, Jinyue couldn't help but cry out.

She tilted her head back, her gaze blank, as if her soul had been penetrated.

Yino's spiritual energy was like a tingling electric current, first forcefully injected into the totem acupoint on Jinyue's sole, then rushing along the meridians straight to the top of her head. Even Jinyue previously pained, alluring pupils instantly became clear.

"Alright, I've cleared the acupoints and meridians in your foot."

"Now, I'll continuously inject spiritual energy into your sole until the poison spread throughout different meridians is forced out..."

Yino's tone changed very quickly. One second he was joking with Jinyue, the next he was pressing acupoints, changing his attitude faster than turning a page.

Jinyue was sweating heavily from the pain and had barely recovered when she felt another hot, warm current gather in her sole.

She instantly felt much better. Looking up, she saw Yino combining two fingers, continuously injecting spiritual energy into the center of the bloody red totem pattern on her sole.

Jinyue could even feel that as Yino's spiritual energy surged into her body, all the totem patterns across her body began to glow excitedly.

"Don't move at all. I'm helping you expel the poison. If you act recklessly, be careful the toxins don't flow chaotically and erode your entire body."

Yino said calmly, focusing intently with his head lowered.

His tone wasn't particularly urgent; after all, he was just treating her. Jinyue's life depended on her own care.

Jinyue didn't dare move, just watching Yino with an incredulous gaze, as if all this was beyond her understanding, yet the results were exactly what she had hoped for.

As time passed, black liquid dripped out of Jinyue's sole, drop by drop.

The black liquid slid down Yino's fingers, leaving smoking, scorching marks.

Jinyue could clearly notice that although Yino appeared unmoved on the surface, he was gritting his teeth in pain, just enduring to not interrupt the detoxification process, continuously injecting spiritual energy into her body through her sole.

Only after the black liquid was gradually turned bleeding red did Yino, bathed in sweat, breathe a deep sigh of relief.

"That should do it, the poison has been drained..."

"But don't rush, I just pierced the acupoint on your sole with spiritual energy. I need to seal and bandage it for you, otherwise this acupoint won't close in the future."

Yino said very seriously.

Jinyue tilted her head: "What happens if the acupoint doesn't close?"

"Not sure, maybe it'll become your weakness. If an enemy can attack your sole, spiritual energy could easily enter your bone marrow and soul source through the acupoint's gap..."

"Then, then please hurry and seal it for me!"

After hearing him. She became a little scared.

Just hearing Yino's description made Jinyue feel her sole itching. She couldn't help but arch her jade foot, trembling.

"Look how scared you are. If an acupoint can be opened, it can certainly be sealed."

"Besides, how could a normal person come up with such an underhanded trick against your foot?"

Seeing Jinyue's foot so tense, Yino couldn't help but find it amusing.

He continued massaging her, nourishing the acupoint with warm spiritual energy, gradually calming the fox girl's anxious heart.

Unconsciously, Jinyue felt a peculiar sense of comfort.

From the start of the procedure, Yino had used simple words to divert Jinyue's attention from her foot, then seized the moment when she was most relaxed to attack the acupoint and inject spiritual energy, forcing out the poison.

Yino's hands were incredibly fast! With his combination of coaxing and tricking, Jinyue only truly felt bone-deep pain for the few seconds when the acupoint was pierced. But before her brain could even react to cry, Yino's treatment was already over.

It all ended so quickly that Jinyue now felt somewhat unsatisfied.

"Um... thank you..."

She looked at Yino's face as he seriously studied her sole, inevitably blushing as she expressed her gratitude.

Perhaps due to nervousness, the girl's pink tail kept curling and stretching, repeatedly at a loss.

Yino, focused on drawing the seal, still didn't respond to her.

Another moment of silence passed.

He pressed the bloody red pattern on her sole, then looked up to observe Jinyue's reaction.

"How does it feel?"

"A bit itchy, but also warm. It feels very comfortable..."

"Is that so? Then the seal was very successful."

At this, Yino smiled. He pinched Jinyue's rosy little foot in praise: "You did well~, The treatment has been properly completed."

...

...

...

"Moooooo."

In the unattended cage, the little deer was still chained, gazing longingly at the empty dungeon.

A glimmer of despair and guilt flashed in its spiritual eyes.

It had been so long, and the young man hadn't returned.

It had already implicated the entire village, and now, having finally met a kind-hearted person, it really didn't want to cause his death here as well...

But all it could do now seemed to be continuously offering prayers and blessings for the young man.
