Ten minutes later, Chu Nan and the girl sat down at a night market stall not far from the alley.
The girl looked around with interest and said happily, “This is the first time I’ve come to such a place to eat. It looks quite lively and interesting.”
Chu Nan seriously sized her up.
Although the light in the alley was dim and he could not see clearly, Chu Nan had already discovered that this girl should be only 15 or 16 years old. Although she was not tall, her figure was not bad and her clothes were extremely decent. Clearly, she was not a child of an ordinary family.
Now that he was under the bright light, he discovered that her facial features were exquisite, her skin was white and tender, and her golden hair that was slightly curled was meticulously styled. There was no trace of disorder.
Coupled with the simple style of her dress, the material looked very high-end, causing her entire body to be bright and moving. At a glance, it made one feel almost breathtaking.
However, such a young and beautiful girl who smiled sweetly with a trace of purity and nobility, a little beauty who was like a goddess, was extremely ruthless to those few hooligans just now. She was so uncouth…
“Hey, why are you looking at me like that? Have you never seen a beauty like me?” Seeing Chu Nan sizing her up, the girl smiled and teased before extending her right hand, “Let me introduce myself. My name is Angie Prairie.”
“Angie Prairie? This name is not bad.” Chu Nan nodded and stretched out his hand to shake hers. He felt as if he had touched a wet soap that was soft and smooth.
Angie Prairie seemed to look at Chu Nan in surprise before laughing.
“Thank you. Chu Nan, let me ask you. After the battle with Maruk in the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition half a year ago, were you heavily injured?”
“Yes, many people know. What’s wrong?” Chu Nan asked in surprise.
“From the video of your battle at that time, your strength should actually be clearly inferior to Maruk, right?” Angie Prairie asked again.
“Indeed.” Chu Nan honestly admitted, “It was already very difficult for me to defeat a second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, but Maruk is a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. Under normal circumstances, I’m definitely not his match.”
“However, you sent him flying with a punch in the end,” Angie Prairie said. “According to the situation at that time, you should have used a very special method to erupt with Internal Breath that far exceeded the normal level. That’s why you defeated Maruk with a punch, right?”
“Yes.”
Chu Nan was not surprised that Angie Prairie would say this because everyone felt that it was unexpected that he could defeat Maruk. Therefore, many people and the media analyzed this battle and came to many speculations.
The most widely accepted and closest to the truth was what Angie Prairie had said.
“I don’t doubt that you can erupt with Internal Breath that far exceeds the normal level because the Nine Revolutions Technique has such an ability. However, I’m more curious… Chu Nan, how did you recover after that? According to your situation at that time, if the Internal Breath you erupted with was enough to heavily injure Maruk with a punch, the strength of your Internal Breath should have far exceeded the burden of your meridians. When you threw that punch, all the meridians in your body should have been completely broken. According to normal calculations, you’re actually already dead.”
Looking at Angie Prairie’s serious expression, Chu Nan immediately laughed.
“Aren’t I living well now?”
“That’s why it’s strange.” Angie Prairie was puzzled, “No matter how I calculate it, you should have died directly. The best case was full-body paralysis. Even the most advanced medical technology couldn’t treat you because what you did at that time had already far exceeded the limit that your body could accept. It would have cut off all your life force and was impossible to treat.”
“No, it’s not as exaggerated as you say.” Chu Nan shook his head, “Before I threw that punch, I already knew the situation in my body like the back of my hand. If that punch would’ve directly killed me or paralyzed my entire body in the future and made me bedridden, I definitely wouldn’t have done that. After all, it’s only a competition. I can’t risk my life to win, right?”
“I can understand that, but how can you be sure of your physical condition? How can you be sure that you can recover? Most importantly, how did you recover? I’ve checked before. You woke up a month after that and spent another month and a half to recover and be discharged. This is too unreasonable.”
Chu Nan rolled his eyes at her. “Is it reasonable for you to break the limbs of those hooligans and let them recover in a few minutes?”
“That’s different. My Internal Breath cultivation method is very special. It can stimulate the rapid recovery of the human body. It’s impossible for you to know it too.” Angie Prairie shook her head.
Chu Nan recalled the scene of those hooligans quickly recovering under the milky white light of Angie Prairie’s right hand. His heart stirred and he smiled. He stretched out a finger of his left hand and drew a three-centimeter-long wound on his right arm.
Angie Prairie looked at him in surprise.
“What are you…”
Chu Nan gestured for her to not move and placed his right arm on the table. Then, he mobilized a trace of Internal Breath from his dantian and quickly flowed into the two secondary meridians and hundreds of fine meridians near the wound on his right arm before adjusting it to a high-frequency vibration state.
Soon, the wound on his right arm quickly healed under the stimulation of the high-frequency vibration Internal Breath. The wound directly disappeared without a trace. Compared to before he was injured, other than an extremely faint mark, there was no difference.
Angie Prairie looked at Chu Nan’s right arm in shock and shook her head.
“No… this is impossible. It’s impossible for you to know the Flame of Life…”
“Flame of Life? What’s that?” Chu Nan asked in surprise.
“No… nothing.” Angie Prairie quickly put away her shocked expression and calmed down. She thought for a moment and asked Chu Nan, “Can you tell me how you did it?”
Chu Nan smiled, “If you tell me how you quickly healed them after breaking those few hooligans’ bones, I’ll tell you how I did it.”
“Tsk, petty person.” Angie Prairie curled her lips, “I can tell you. The Internal Breath cultivation method I cultivate is called the Flame of Life. This cultivation method is very special. It can directly stimulate the cell activity of the human body and mobilize life force, allowing people to automatically recover quickly. What about you?”
“If that’s the case, then we’re about the same. However, I’m not using any special cultivation method, but a small trick I figured out myself. Of course, you can help others recover, but I can’t.”
“Why not?” Angie Prairie was a little strange, “Since you can stimulate your body to recover quickly, in theory, you should be able to use it on others.”
“About that… I can’t explain it clearly. In short, I can only use it to treat my injuries now.”
“Is that so?” Angie Prairie thought for a moment and suddenly stretched out her arm. Then, she also drew a finger and immediately drew a bloody wound that was seven to eight centimeters long.
Angie Prairie placed her arm in front of Chu Nan with anticipation in her eyes.
“Come, try it with your method.”
