Suddenly, his expression changed as he said, "What do you mean, stop showing off? Eh, you could hear me while I was talking to, well, erm, you?"

As he finished speaking, he turned his head as slow as possible to look at Zhao Mei, who pricked her ears, listening attentively to what he was saying.

"Bah, don't talk then. I wouldn't have to respond if that was the case." The man said with a frustrated tone.

The man's expression changed yet again from one of frustration to worry. "What? I meant, just for this period of time, of course! Not forever!"

"Wait, don't leave!"

"What...?" As he said this, he let out a sigh of relief.

His expression returned to that of playfulness as he looked back at Zhao Mei.

"Okay, let"s get this over with." The man said as he walked towards Zhao Mei with both his arms stretched out.

He rolled up his sleeves while Zhao Mei was dazed.

She snapped out of it and saw the man walking closer to her with a casual expression on his face.

'He's... what is he doing?' Zhao Mei looked at the man.

The man took something out of his storage ring and showed it to Zhao Mei as he said, "See this? I think you already know what this is."

The item looked like a cloud with a stem that's as thin as a raindrop.

Zhao Mei widened her eyes as she saw the item in the man's hand. 'It's the Heavenly Cotton!"

After he spoke, he rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't I tell you to not talk? Ugh..."

Zhao Mei was clearly confused by what he was talking about. 'But I stayed silent throughout the whole conversation... It can't even be called a conversation!'

The man's fingers suddenly moved in an inexplicable manner. "I'm going to cure you now, so don't be scared."

Hearing the man's words, all Zhao Mei could do was widen her mouth in shock.

"I'm going to need to ask you to take your clothes off again." The man said as if it was a casual thing.

Zhao Mei hadn't recovered from the man's previus words yet, so as soon as his words reached her ear, she took her new clothes off in an instant.

"Oh. I didn't expect you agree so easily! I thought you were the type to be conservative, who knew you were an exhibitio- Hey! Hey, I was just kidding!" The man quickly retracted his words in a panic.

"Fine, I'll just do it!"

After he said that, the man tore the cotton in his hands in an abrupt manner. With this action, the overwhelming amount of Light energy could not be contained in its small stem anymore, and all of them started to leak!

Up to this point, Zhao Mei was watching absentmindedly as she still could not comprehend the man in front of her. Why would he suddenly cure her? What was his goal? And most important of all, who was he?

But as the man broke the stem of the Heavenly Cotton, Zhao Mei snapped out of it and hurriedly warned the man, "Close your eyes!"

The man responded, "Thanks for your concern." He then proceeded to not do anything she said.

His hands hovered around the source of the light - the cotton was on its brink to collapsing into dust particles at any second! It floated between the man's two hands, being suppressed by his energy.

"Huh?" Zhao Mei watched the scene in confusion. Why did the Light energy not disperse immediately? It was known that Light energy was the fastest dispersing energy among all of them, so how come the man was fast enough to contain it as soon as it leaked out?

Not to mention that, much like Dark energy, the Light energy was also overbearing and powerful! One needed a certain amount of strength to suppress even a small concentration of it.

That meant that the man had a high cultivation realm, at least, two levels higher than her!

This man was most likely at the Fourth Level Godly Mark? And she, who would pay a price for her fast cultivation, had only reached the First Level?

Thus, Zhao Mei came to the conclusion that the man had paid a price much more enormous than hers to achieve this kind of cultivation at his age.

While Zhao Mei had unnecessary thoughts running through her mind, the man started sweating bullets.

A sense of exhaustion pervaded through both his arms as he exerted all of his strength in just containing the overwhelming amount of Light energy!

He squinted his eyes. "This is much harder than I thought... Don't laugh at me!"

Eventually, the Light energy inside the small container that he made with his hands calmed down. Prior to this, the energy was swirling around aggresively, attempting to escape this invisible prison it was in.

The man let out a sigh of relief when he felt that the pressure coming from the energy wasn't that much anymore.

"Ahh, my Space energy is almost depleted..." The man shook his head as he wiped the sweat off of his forehead. Since the energy settled down, it didn' t require the man both his hands to contain.

He then pointed at Zhao Mei, saying, "Meimei, lay down on the bed."

Completely believing in the other party's prowess, Zhao Mei lied on the bed, full of hope that her body would be healed.

The scene was completely alluring. The beautiful Zhao Mei was not wearing anything to cover her chest, as she rested on the bed in an unintentionally seductive manner.

The man was slightly moved, before his face turned into one of frustration as he retorted, "No, no! Do you think I'm that kind of person? Why would you marry me in the first place..."

He shook his head as he walked towards the bed with the girl on it.

The man's fingers moved, controlling the stream of energy at his will.

In his control, the energy was like a ball of thread, unravelling as he separated it into different parts. At this point, the initial ball of Light energy now had a bunch of strings coming out of it.

The strings made their way towards seemingly random parts of Zhao Mei's body.

She watched the scene with great interest. With the man's precise control over the overbearing Light energy, who wouldn't?

As the strings entered her body, she expected to be pricked and stinged, only for her to feel pleasure as the energy made its way into her. She couldn't help but moan as her face became flushed.

Meanwhile, the Dark energy inside her body detected the Light energy and it began attacking.

The two energies could not overpower one another, ending up in a stalemate forever.

With the Dark and Light energies gradually balancing, Zhao Mei felt her body become lighter.
