As soon as Nash got out of the car, Hera pounced on him. Nash hugged Hera and jokingly asked, “You


    didn’t go square dancing, did you?”


    Hera gave Nash a yful look and replied, “I’d never square dance. I went to y chess!” She then


    pulled out a few crumpled ten-dor bills from her pocket. She shed her teeth proudly as she said,


    “See, I won 60 bucks!”


    Nash could not help but chuckle. “You can bet money on chess?”


    Hera giggled and said, “They won’t y with you if no money is involved.”


    Suddenly, a burly man dressed in a security uniform approached them with a gift box in hand. “Mr.


    Calcraft, there’s an elderly man named Lucius outside. He asked me to give you this box.”


    It was the Coiled Dragon Flower sent by the owner of People’s Pharmacy.


    Nash took the box and opened it. A faint fragrance wafted out. Inside was a withered light purple flower.


    There was a price tag inside the box-3.48 million.


    The owner of the pharmacy wanted him to remember this favor he did for him.


    “3.48 million?”


    “What… What kind of flower is this?” Hera stared at the flower in the box in astonishment. Even a


    hundred-year-old wild ginseng would not cost this much, right?


    “This is called the Coiled Dragon Flower. It grows by absorbing


    Celestial Spirit Energy as well as cosmic essence. It’s extremely rare,” Nash exined with a smile.


    Hera pouted. “Indeed, the world of martial artists is beyond theprehension of ordinary people like


    us!”


    Nash held Hera’s hand, and they walked toward the vi. “If you don’t understand, you can always ask


    me… I’m sure I can exin everything,” he offered gently.


    Delighted, Hera hugged Nash’s arm and asked, “When will you teach me martial arts?”


    “Let me teach you a set of Dual Cultivation Heart Teachings another day.”

    “Is it powerful?”


    “It’s powerful, but…”


    “But what?”


    “But you can only practice it when I’m around.”


    “Why?”


    “I’ll exin it to youter when the timees.”


    The two entered the living room. Maria was feeding medicine to Melody.


    Hera let go of Nash’s arm and went over, asking, “Is Melody awake?”


    Maria nodded. “Yes, she just woke up not long ago.”


    Hera took the medicine bowl from Maria’s hands and softly said, “Let me do it.”


    Melody was wrapped up like a mummy, with only her nose and eyes exposed to allow her to breathe


    and see. Upon hearing Hera’s voice, Melody asked hoarsely, “Where’s your man?”


    Nash stepped forward and asked, “I’m here. Are you in pain?”


    Voice thin as a thread, she started, “My… My cultivation…”


    She could not sense any true energy in her body. During the confrontation with Boris, most of Boris’


    attacks had struck her energy centers.


    When she attempted suicideter, she realized they were severely damaged. She was worried that


    they were now ruined because she could not sense any true energy.


    “I sealed your cultivation temporarily. I’ll lift the seal when your injuries are almost healed,” Nash said.


    Worried that Melody might do something foolish, he sealed her energy centers with the Divine Needles.


    If she continued to use true energy while her energy centers were damaged, it would only lead to their


    Melody nodded in understanding and took a sip of the medicine that


    Hera fed her.


    “Take care of Melody. I need to go to the underground alchemy room!”


    There were six days left to his 10-day agreement with Grant Nash had to break through to the Mystique


    Loyalty Realm within this time frame.
