Ning Yue was amazed by the magical scene where Yun Lintian put all the plates away. After hearing Yun Lintian's question, she nodded and wrote something on the paper.
A moment later, she handed the paper to Yun Lintian.
After reading the content, Yun Lintian roughly understood his current situation.
The Profound Pill Sect was located in a small country called the Lou Country inside the Great Zhou Kingdom. Ning Yue didn't know how large the kingdom was, but in her perception, the Great Zhou Kingdom was extremely powerful as there were numerous countries under its jurisdiction.
Among the factions inside the Lou Country, the Profound Pill Sect could be considered a middle-level sect. However, because the sect was expertise in alchemy, its status was relatively high and could be rivaled by other top factions.
Yun Lintian nodded gently. Ning Yue's knowledge was limited, as she had never traveled a long distance. The information she got mostly came from what other people said.
"How did you enter the sect?" Yun Lintian asked.
A trace of sorrow appeared in Ning Yue's eyes. She took the paper and wrote something on it.
Perhaps she inexplicably trusted Yun Lintian and didn't hide anything.
According to what she wrote in the paper, Ning Yue originally lived in a small town called Apricot Blossom Town. Her Ning family did a small business and farming to live.
She was raised by her grandmother as her parents unknowingly disappeared after sending goods to a city.
One day, her uncle somehow offended a powerful figure, and her Ning family was basically destroyed by him. At that time, Ning Yue was only seven years old.
In order to let her escape, her grandmother begged her friend to take Ning Yue away before the disaster arrived. However, that friend of her grandmother ended up selling her to the Profound Pill Sect to raise her as a medicine girl.
If it wasn't because the constitution was too weak and couldn't withstand any medicine, she would have become a medicine girl by now. In the end, she was thrown here to become a servant, taking care of all the odd jobs.
A cold glint flashed through Yun Lintian's eyes as he read it. He didn't know whether it was good or bad luck that Ning Yue was too frail, so she could escape from becoming a lab rat.
Yun Lintian took a deep breath and asked. "So, you have been living here for almost a decade now?"
Ning Yue nodded gently. Seeing Yun Lintian's expression, she smiled and waved her hand, telling him she was fine.
Yun Lintian stared at her skinny face that was almost becoming a bag of bones for a long while and said. "Don't worry. Your life will be getting better from now on."
Ning Yue thought that Yun Lintian had just comforted her. She smiled sweetly and expressed her gratitude with a hand gesture.
Yun Lintian looked at the small scar on her neck and asked. "Do you know that you are not born mute like this?"
Ning Yue had a puzzled expression as she shook her head. In her memory, she had always been mute since she could remember.
Yun Lintian frowned slightly. What kind of grudge did the culprit have to harm her like this? Not to mention she was probably a baby at that time.
He put this question aside and looked at Ning Yue. "I can recover your voice. Do you trust me?"
Ning Yue was startled in disbelief for a moment before snapping back. She looked into Yun Lintian's eyes and nodded firmly.
Yun Lintian took a bunch of silver needles out along with a single bed and said. "Lie down."
Ning Yue didn't know why she trusted Yun Lintian so much. Perhaps it was because she had nothing for him to take advantage of that she wasn't afraid of him. She got up and lay down on the bed obediently.
Yun Lintian picked the silver needles out and waved his hand gently. Immediately, all the sixty-odd needles were directly pierced into all the profound entrances of Ning Yue's body.
Ning Yue was stunned by the magical scene. She couldn't feel anything at all, yet the needles were already on her body.
"Relax yourself." Yun Lintian said gently and slowly, injecting the wood energy into her body through the needles.
Because Ning Yue's body was too weak, he had to adopt this old-fashioned method to slowly nourish her body before treating her vocal cord and opening her profound entrances.
At this moment, Ning Yue felt a warm current slowly seep into her body and spread to every corner. Her mind was immediately hit by drowsiness as she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep in the next few breaths.
Yun Lintian meticulously combed along Ning Yue's profound vein and meridians as if he was afraid of breaking her.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Yun Lintian saw a small green sprout appear in Ning Yue's profound vein. The sprout reacted to his wood energy and greedily absorbed it.
Yun Lintian's eyebrows raised slightly but he didn't stop pouring the wood energy in. His intuition told him Ning Yue's injury must be related to this sprout.
Soon, the sprout grew into a few tens centimeters long and firmly rooted in the place. At the same time, Yun Lintian discovered that all of her profound entrances had opened automatically.
The sprout swayed gently and stopped absorbing Yun Lintian's wood energy as if it was expressing its gratitude to him.
"What are you?" Yun Lintian muttered to himself.
For some reason, he felt an inexplicable connection between the sprout and the Tree of Life in his body. Unfortunately, he couldn't contact Lauya at the moment.
Yun Lintian didn't think about it further and shifted his focus onto Ning Yue's vocal cords. From the look of it, it was clearly damaged by an external force.
As he raised his finger, a small vine extended out of it and wrapped around Ning Yue's neck, injecting the purest wood energy into her vocal cord.
The sprout seemed to notice something and swayed excitedly as if it was seeing an old friend.
Yun Lintian glanced at the sprout in doubt… Could it be a branch of the Tree of Life? But if that was the case, he should feel something about it already.
He looked at Ning Yue, whose complexion was slowly improving, and fell into deep thought… It seemed Ning Yue's background wasn't ordinary as it appeared to be.
