Zither Emperor Vol 3 Chapter 17.3

Chapter 17 – Violet Bamboo Divine Needle (III)

　　———————————————

Ye Yin Zhu didn’t reply and only smiled faintly. He waved his right hand, and a violet light followed his motion. Whoosh. That Violet Bamboo Needle silently pierced Hai Yang’s right cheek.

The slight stab of pain was accompanied by a numbing sensation, so he hadn’t given Hai Yang very much discomfort. Upon hearing Xiang Luan crying out in alarm, Hai Yang couldn’t help ignite the hope in her heart because if he could really heal her scarred face, well…

“Senior Hai Yang, can you please take off your jacket?” Ye Yin Zhu waved his right hand and two more Violet Bamboo Needles were withdrawn from the cloth bag.

“What?” Hai Yang, Xiang Luan, and Sura simultaneously cried out in alarm. Their gazes towards Ye Yin Zhu immediately became strange.

Ye Yin Zhu twirled the Violet Bamboo Needles above his hand and helplessly explained, “My acupuncture skill isn’t very proficient. Plus, I’m not very familiar with the female body. I can’t pierce through the clothing with the needle as that can easily cause problems. The meridians in Senior Hai Yang’s face first require the upper body to be un.o.bstructed  in order to deal with source: the meridians in the cheek.”

Xiang Luan spoke without taking the time to think. “Why must you do this? Even if that’s the case, Hai Yang’s body still isn’t something for you to examine. That’s out of the question. This absolutely won’t do.” She slid her body between Ye Yin Zhu and Hai Yang as she spoke, not allowing him to approach any closer.

Sura repeatedly nodded and said, “Precisely, how can you look at another girl’s body?”

Ye Yin Zhu looked at Hai Yang. At this moment, Xiang Luan had already removed the hand that had obstructed Hai Yang’s eyes. Their gazes met, and Hai Yang saw the clarity in Ye Yin Zhu’s eyes that was without even a trace of depravity. There was only sincerity in that pure gaze.

Nibbling her lower lip, Hai Yang’s eternally icy eyes now displayed resolve. She recalled that final scene against the Wind division students. Ye Yin Zhu, in order to protect them, faced the Green Dragon by himself without cowering at all. His sincere and pure gaze, as well as his gentle and fresh aura, made people trust in him.

“Okay, I’ll take it off.” Hai Yang pulled away from Xiang Luan. Taking a deep breath, she began unb.u.t.toning the upper portion of her white dress.

“Hai Yang, why are you doing this…” Xiang Luan grabbed Hai Yang’s hands as she spoke anxiously.

Hai Yang lightly sighed. “Elder Sister Xiang Luan, weren’t you encouraging me just a moment ago? Perhaps this is the chance. If he can really perform that legendary art of healing, this may be my last chance. I want to give it a try. I believe in Ye Yin Zhu’s character.”

Xiang Luan slowly released Hai Yang’s hands, her beautiful eyes exuding only lament. “Ye Yin Zhu, I’ll hand her over to you.”

In his heart, Ye Yin Zhu was excited. Hai Yang’s trust made his whole body seem as if it were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with boundless strength. The Bamboo Dou Qi within his body slowly circulated, its rhythmic breathing gradually calming his excitement. While treating Hai Yang, he couldn’t make any mistakes. The meridians of a person’s face were extremely complex. If a problem occurred, not only would Hai Yang’s face be unrestored, but she would even be unable to form any facial expressions in the future.

“Why haven’t you left? Are you wanting to take advantage of this?” Xiang Luan glared at Sura, who still stood behind Ye Yin Zhu.

“Oh.” Sura looked distracted. He sent a complicated look towards Ye Yin Zhu as he handed over the cloth bag to Xiang Luan. “Yin Zhu, I’ll wait for you outside.”

One b.u.t.ton undone, two b.u.t.tons undone, then the neck area of the dress opened wide. Hai Yang’s slender, elegant neck was gradually revealed. The faint, delicate, maidenly fragrance was somewhat refres.h.i.+ng. Icy and sweetening, it stimulated Ye Yin Zhu’s senses.

Finally, the several b.u.t.tons were completely undone. Hai Yang closed her eyes, her long eyelashes constantly and lightly trembled. Both of her hands shook slightly as they moved along her jacket, slowly slipping down. More and more snow white skin was exposed. Her body emitted that sweet fragrance, which became increasingly more distinct.

Ye Yin Zhu’s expression was very serene. His breathing didn’t become rushed because of Hai Yang’s exposed skin at all. He basically didn’t understand male and female matters. Looking at Hai Yang’s fair as snow, sparkling and pure skin, his heart was only somewhat peculiar.

Hai Yang’s jacket was at last shed. Because it was a dress, it hung down at her waist. The last remaining form of protection for her firm, plump chest was her bandeau. Ye Yin Zhu thought to himself, ‘As it turns out, Senior Hai Yang’s pectoral muscles are also quite robust!’Fortunately, he remembered Anya’s earlier warnings and didn’t ask any questions.

With lotus-like snow white arms and gentle, beautifully curved shoulders, she appeared somewhat fragile and delicate. Her slim waist was so slender it seemed as if it could be grasped with one hand. She had perfect curves, no matter which angle they were viewed from. The entirety of her features were a divine masterpiece.

“Do, do you want me to take this off too?” Both of Hai Yang’s hands lightly pressed against her chest wrap as she inquired uneasily.

“No need, this is good.” Ye Yin Zhu’s reply caused her to relax greatly. Her eyes closed tightly as she breathed unevenly, her soft, ample chest continuously rising and falling.

Ye Yin Zhu advanced two steps forward, his clear gaze becoming imposing. “Senior Hai Yang, regardless of what you feel, you must not move. You must not make any movements. I’m starting.”

Sura stood outside the door. At this moment, he found that his mood wasn’t very good. He didn’t know if it was because Ye Yin Zhu saw Hai Yang’s naked upper body, or because of his discussion with Ye Yin Zhu today. He didn’t know why, but his mood had become very restless. At this moment, he heard Xiang Luan’s voice echo from within the villa.

“Ye Yin Zhu, you made Hai Yang take off her clothes. If you can’t do it, don’t blame me if I’m rude to you.”

“Hey, move a little slower, okay? She’s a girl. Gentle, you must be gentle. Don’t you see Hai Yang’s frown?”

“Ye Yin Zhu, this thing is both long and thick. Is it really okay to just stick it in? Won’t it bleed?!”

Listening to Xiang Luan’s continuous chatter, Sura felt as if his whole body was trembling and burning up. Although he was fully aware of the process being conducted currently, he had previously traveled through the entire upper region of the continent. It was hard to avoid thinking of the naughty slant of those words. His face flashed red, then white. If he didn’t take into consideration his current status, he really would have immediately charged into the villa.

Gently pressing against his belt, a small, square case appeared above his hands from faint rays of light. His expression appeared somewhat hard to decipher. He recalled Ye Yin Zhu’s words – ‘A person’s beauty or ugliness is not absolute. If a girl is very pretty, but her heart is no good, it is the same as being an ugly woman…’

“Yin Zhu, perhaps my heart is no good, just like your description.” With a flash of light, the small, square case disappeared once more. Feeling the chill and loneliness within the curtain of night, Sura’s complexion gradually became replaced with ice.

“Senior Xiang Luan, can you please be silent?” You’re making me unable to concentrate at all.” Ye Yin Zhu couldn’t stand Xiang Luan by his side. He had wanted to use the needles several times already, but Xiang Luan would stop him. It was as if Hai Yang was porcelain that would break at the slightest touch.

Xiang Luan’s face turned red. She also thought that she was talking a bit too much. “Then you must be careful.

With Xiang Luan no longer distracting him, Ye Yin Zhu could at last concentrate his essence. Two faint violet needles revolved above his hands at the same time. Quietly, they pierced into Hai Yang’s shoulders, one for each shoulder blade. Only the small tips were exposed outside, causing astonishment as Hai Yang unexpectedly didn’t feel a thing. Her body stayed motionless.

Although Ye Yin Zhu only had eight fingers, each of them were exceptionally nimble. When he practiced the art of healing via the Violet Bamboo Needles, he did half the work for twice the effect due to all the years he’d spent practicing the zither, which made his fingers exceptionally flexible. At this moment, his eight fingers, very rhythmic and unceasing, withdrew more Violet Bamboo Needles which were rapidly pierced into Hai Yang’s body. In addition to that previous one needle in the cheek, there were a total of three needles inserted. This Violet Bamboo Needle Technique Ye Yin Zhu utilized was known as the Three Needle Attention Concentration.

Hai Yang’s originally nervous and tense expression gradually relaxed. Her body’s aura gentled significantly, as she entirely descended into a hazy, blurred state of being.
