Chapter 813: Chapter 785: Change Begins from the Heart

"How are you feeling now?"

When Li Chen opened his eyes again, he found himself surrounded by four girls.

Lin Yi, Lin Xiaoxiao, Wang Qianqian, and Jiang Bingyu.

Touching his head somewhat awkwardly, Li Chen coughed and said, "Speaking of which, could you girls step out so I can get dressed?"

Just having woken up, Li Chen realized that under the blanket, his body was devoid of any clothing, and he remembered that when he had passed out to facilitate the detoxification, he had taken off all his clothes.

Hearing Li Chen’s words, Jiang Bingyu couldn’t help but curl her lips: "Who would’ve thought, someone like you could actually be shy?"

Li Chen got somewhat annoyed at Jiang Bingyu’s comment: "How could I not be shy?"

Jiang Bingyu didn’t say much, just glanced over the faces of Lin Yi and the other girls, then took a sweeping look over Li Chen’s body under the blanket.

Li Chen immediately felt embarrassed.

"What’s there to cover? I’ve seen everything already!" Jiang Bingyu huffed, "And you call yourself a Mystic Rank Expert? You still care about this? Ever heard of a doctor’s parental heart? When I was detoxifying you, you were like my son!"

"I..." Li Chen was dumbfounded, but before he could say anything else, Jiang Bingyu had already turned around and left the room.

Left behind were Lin Yi and the other girls, who looked at Li Chen and stealthily giggled.

"Hey hey hey! Can you guys take a stand, please? I just got harassed and you’re still laughing?" Li Chen immediately started complaining.

However, as soon as he said that, Li Chen felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Lin Xiaoxiao’s face turned red, and with a "Pah," she quickly ran out of the room.

"I..." Li Chen was flabbergasted once again.

Lin Yi and Wang Qianqian, however, gave Li Chen a meaningful, warning glare before departing from the room as well.

Watching all the girls leave, Li Chen felt like crying but had no tears.

I just wanted them to leave so I could change clothes. What have I done to deserve this?

When Li Chen showed up in the living room, he saw the four girls chatting enthusiastically about something. He wanted to join in, but realizing that none of them paid him any attention, he felt even more helpless.

"How are you feeling now?" It was only after quite some time that Jiang Bingyu took the initiative to look at him and ask.

"Feeling... a bit strange." After an Inner Vision, Li Chen discovered that the poison in his body was indeed gone, and the meridians were not showing further signs of erosion. Even the areas that had been eroded were all recovered.

But for some reason, Li Chen still felt something was unusual.

As if his body, after such a poisoning and detoxification, had undergone some kind of change.

Hearing Li Chen’s words, Jiang Bingyu’s face showed a contemplative look, and after a moment of thought, she then said, "If I’m not wrong, you might be experiencing a blessing in disguise this time."

"A blessing in disguise?"

Jiang Bingyu nodded and continued, "This insect poison is very peculiar; even I have never seen it before. However, the medicinal properties of the Purple Sunflower are famously overbearing. The average person’s body simply cannot withstand the powerful medicinal nature of the Purple Sunflower, which is why to most people, it’s more like poison."

"But your body is not that of an average person, so it was able to withstand the overbearing medicinal properties of the Purple Sunflower and also eliminate the poison."

"However, after such a transformation, your body now has a very strong resistance to poison. Now, common toxins probably won’t affect you at all," said Jiang Bingyu.

"Does this mean I’m now immune to all poisons?" Li Chen asked with some surprise.

"Immune to all poisons might be an overstatement, but indeed, ordinary toxins really don’t affect you anymore," Jiang Bingyu replied.

Upon hearing this, Li Chen also began to ponder.

His body had always been somewhat special, but as for where exactly it was special, Li Chen couldn’t pinpoint. However, he felt that there seemed to be an issue with his blood.

Since he was a child, he had been completely immune to common toxins, to the extent that he could completely ignore venomous snake bites.

And now, his body’s resistance to poison had been further strengthened, to the point where he really could be considered immune to all poisons.

"Of course, that’s not the main point." At this moment, Jiang Bingyu spoke up again.

"Hmm?"

Jiang Bingyu pointed to Li Chen’s arm and said, "Do you feel anything?"

"Feel anything?" Li Chen said, subconsciously clenching his fist.

The next moment, Li Chen’s expression turned somewhat astonished.

"Although Purple Sunflower has domineering medicinal properties, it is also very effective. Most of the time, Purple Sunflower is not used for detoxification, but rather to refine a main medicine for the ’Purifying Body Pill’,’" Jiang Bingyu said, and when it came to potions, no one had more authority than her, a young genius from the Pharmacist Clan.

"Purifying Body Pill?" Li Chen’s eyes widened: "Isn’t that something that has been lost a long time ago?"

Jiang Bingyu blinked: "It’s only been lost in your region."

Li Chen was speechless.

"Your current physical condition has indirectly been influenced by the Purifying Body, and although it doesn’t have much direct effect on your True Qi, by my estimate, your physical strength could increase by approximately fifty percent," Jiang Bingyu said, pinching her fingers.

"Fifty percent?" Li Chen’s eyes widened suddenly.

Physical strength was something Li Chen had always been trying to improve. Being physically strong can play an extremely significant role at certain times, and if one’s body is stronger than the opponent’s, not to mention other aspects, just in terms of endurance in prolonged battles, one can have an absolute advantage.

However, other than relentless training, Li Chen could not think of any other ways to enhance his physical body.

This sudden increase was a huge surprise for him.

"Alright." At this moment, Lin Yi suddenly spoke up: "Now that this matter is resolved, let’s talk about other things."

"Other things..." Li Chen noticed that there seemed to be some changes in Lin Yi, as for where these changes were, Li Chen wasn’t sure, but he felt that after this departure, Lin Yi seemed to have become much calmer.

Looking at Li Chen, Lin Yi said softly, "During the time you were away, I had Catherine intensify the training of the Nether Army. Moreover, the Array Diagram you left behind has been deciphered by Jiang Bingyu. Now, Catherine has led the Nether Army into the Relic to train and incidentally gather Raw Stones."

"The Relic has been opened by you?" Li Chen was surprised once again.

He finally understood where this change was.

He is growing stronger, continuously growing stronger, but likewise, the people around him are also growing stronger.

This type of growth wasn’t passive, but rather a proactive strengthening.

This change was exactly what Li Chen had been hoping to see. Watching Lin Yi calmly recount recent events, a satisfied smile formed on the corners of Li Chen’s mouth.
