Chapter 122 Plundering the heavens Part 2
Amidst the laughter and banter, Monkey stepped forward and courageously volunteered himself for the first treatment.
He would never let go of a chance to get a leg up over the others.
The chatter immediately quieted down, as everybody's eyes were focussed on Su Lin.
Su Lin began the treatment by mobilizing her soul core and steadily circulating her abundantly thrumming spiritual energy throughout her body, finally focussing it on the tip of her right index finger.
She then gently released minute concentrated wisps of energy in specific areas of Monkey's body, like his forehead, underarms, lower abdomen, and knee joints.
With each touch, Monkey's face twisted in pain and agony, but he bit his teeth and bore with it.
Even Su Lin was impressed with his will power.
She had estimated that these pampered thugs would need at least four to five sittings of treatment.
But this was very impressive.
Monkey seemed to be in complete control as he silently suffered in pain but still maintained his steady posture, not moving a muscle.
An entire hour slowly and painstakingly crawled by, as Su Lin patiently repeated the same process over and over, breaking down every resistance in Monkey's body.
Monkey was now in so much pain, that he could barely endure it anymore.
To see their brother who always joked around suffering so much, the others involuntarily gulped in fear.
Soon, it would be their turn... Fuck...
And so, under the veil of the dark night, several agonized shrieks echoed in the silent mysterious fog, one worse than the other, all the way till the early wee hours of the morning.
Wads of soft fluffy clouds slowly dissipated, and a brilliant morning dawned on the mystical mountainous ranges of the Kawa Karpo region.
The faint sun rays danced with the sensual fog warming the entire region with a beautiful array of miscellaneous colors.
It was a picturesque scene capable of melting one's heart and soul.
But sadly, the ten people currently privy to this magical sight had little to no interest in this breathtakingly mesmerizing view.
Except for Luther, everyone else was almost shivering in pain and fear, coupled with several other emotions.
They were all exhausted from screaming, twitching, and crying throughout the night.
And now that it was finally over, their eyes were shining with a mixture of relief, agony, and gratitude.
But, as if nothing was out of place, Su Lin dusted her clothes and stood up.
"Guess that was the last person. Good job. Let's head over to the adjacent mountain ranges now."
"The pain should settle down in a day or two."
And everyone else could only obediently nod. At least the hard part was over!
The Kawa Karpo region, they currently occupied belongs to the snow-capped high peaks of the Eastern Himalayas.
And the Himalayan ranges in their entirety are a set of majestically high and wide mountains ranging for approximately 1500 miles, running across several countries.
So the group still had a long way to go before exhausting the spiritual energy bestowed in these ranges by the heavens.
Leaving their original spot, the group slowly hiked along the uneven hilly terrain reaching the adjacent stitch of verdant peaks.
After walking for a while, they reached the outskirts of the next zone and unbeknownst to the newbies, their bodies were slightly rejuvenated with the sparsely distributed spiritual energy.
Some of them subconsciously straightened their backs and even picked up the pace.
Trailing in the back of the group, Monkey cautiously whispered to Runyan.
"Junior sister, why did you decide to join us in hell? At least you could have escaped this fate? My heart aches for you, my dearest beautiful sister."
Runyan was too tired to respond and barely mustered out a weak smile.
"Sister, does it hurt anywhere specifically? My hands are extremely famous for giving amazing massages."
Seeing that he didn't get a negative response, Monkey continued boasting with pride and hoping for an opportunity.
He was just about to eagerly give her a live demonstration when suddenly Su Lin was standing in the spot where Runyan was supposed to be there.
"Hmmm... Monkey, it looks like you still have a lot of potential left. Should we do another cycle?"
"What the heck? No No No" Monkey cried in fear. This was not fair!
He instantly held back his hands, and quickly looked away, whistling as if nothing happened.
But he still couldn't avoid the two sets of piercing eyes intensely gazing at him.
Two sets because, of course, Luther had to keep an eye on all things related to Su Lin.
Bro, I didn't touch your wife alright! You don't have to stare at me, you possessive devil, Monkey cried inside.
For heaven's sake, why was it so hard for him to land a girlfriend??!!
Ignoring the noisy fellow, in all seriousness, Su Lin gently patted Runyan and checked her condition.
Yesterday, she was very surprised when Runyan adamantly declared that she as well wanted to cultivate.
Since the poor child wished for it with an infinite determination, she didn't dissuade her and opened Runyan's energy points too.
Almost everyone present was surprised at the weak young woman's capability to withstand that huge amount of pain and agony.
But Runyan bore with it and surprised everyone by withstanding the entire treatment process.
Looking at her tired demeanor, Su Lin could only silently sigh. This girl still had not opened up with her about any of her problems.
Initially, she had thought that it might be because she didn't feel comfortable sharing her private matters.
But now, she was pretty sure that this kind young woman just didn't want to burden other people with her issues.
Su Lin again patted her gently. She could never understand people like her. Sometimes it was better to just uncork everything and lay it bare in the open.
A sealed heart and a clouded brain is a heavy burden to bear.
