Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1655: Chapter 1635:

Looking at the beastman in front of him, covered with countless instruments, Mo’s lips twitched. Although he had seen this scene before when Luo Shufan was severely injured, Luo Shufan back then could barely cling to life, and his body’s vitality was almost imperceptible. Fortunately, precise instruments were able to detect every anomaly in his body.

However, the person in front of him was obviously not injured yet was still restrained on the bed. From the neck, wrists, ankles, and even arms, legs, and waist, the person was tightly secured by straps that were visibly stronger than regular ones, made of hard materials like metal and leather. For a moment, Luo Qianqian felt like she was witnessing some interrogation scene.

”How is it?” Elder Deng appeared a bit nervous and tugged at Luo Qianqian’s sleeve.

For some reason, upon seeing Mo, his heart began to pound, giving him a feeling that he could not become enemies with him.

”Um... what do you mean ’how is it’?” Luo Qianqian looked at Elder Deng with confusion. Although it was she who was being tugged, it was clear that the other party was watching Mo.

”Obvious vital signs, no apparent injuries, slow movement of spiritual power, probably due to damaged meridians. Also, it looks like someone who couldn’t complete their cultivation and escaped midway. Previously, he must have been covered in scars, right?” Mo calmly poked the person’s body in front of him: ”But his physique seems quite good, um, muscles are solid.”

”But when he first came back, he was practically covered in wounds...” Elder Deng quickly nodded: ”But after we applied some medicine, he slowly recovered on his own afterward.”

”Medicine? What kind of medicine?” Mo instantly reacted like he had found a breakthrough point, quickly turning to Luo Qianqian, his face filled with urgency.

Luo Qianqian nodded, glanced at Elder Deng: ”Prepare a set of all the medicine used on him; my friend suspects it might be the effect of the drugs.”

”The effect of drugs? No way?” Elder Deng looked surprised, but he still nodded naturally, instructing someone to bring the medicine, as it was just some ordinary stuff used.

The medicine Jimo Cheng once gave to Luo Qianqian wasn’t something just anyone could get.

After examining all the medicines, Mo shook his head again: ”It’s not a matter of medication; however, this one hinders cultivation.” He casually took out a tube of ointment, tossing it to Luo Qianqian: ”Take a look.”

”This isn’t common, huh? Eh? I think I’ve used it? It’s for treating acne... uh, so has he broken out in acne? You can’t use this on damaged skin?” Luo Qianqian looked at Elder Deng with confusion.

Elder Deng also looked at the tube of ointment strangely, and directly put on his reading glasses to carefully read the instructions. After a moment, filled with even more confusion: ”What does this ointment do? Who prescribed this? Investigate!”

”You got acne?” Mo leaned over to Luo Qianqian, curiously scrutinizing her: ”Why didn’t I notice?”

”... There are plenty of things you haven’t noticed!” Luo Qianqian instantly rolled her eyes, exasperatedly: ”Why hasn’t he woken up yet?”

Don’t even mention acne; she hadn’t even reached the age to have acne when her looks settled down, who could she complain to?

”If you input some spiritual power, you’d know instantly? I’m not one with gentle attributes; I’m afraid I’d ruin him directly.” Mo shrugged, clearly in a good mood despite Luo Qianqian’s irritation.

Luo Qianqian hesitated, watching Elder Deng who was checking information on the side, and slowly extended a finger, touching the body of the person in front of her.

Soon, the spiritual power seemed to be absorbed, continuously flowing into the body of the person on the bed.

”You!” Seeing Mo’s sneaky smile, Luo Qianqian was instantly furious; clearly, she had been schemed against!

This person was obviously spiritually depleted and therefore hadn’t woken up. Wasn’t she just offering herself up as a sacrifice?

But now that her power was absorbed, she had no other choice but to adjust the circulation speed of her own spiritual power and control the output volume. She couldn’t just let him die, right?

Soon, the attraction of spiritual power diminished, and those brown long eyelashes fluttered, slowly opening to reveal a pair of golden eyes.

Luo Qianqian withdrew her hand and rubbed it fiercely: ”Damn it, don’t force me to take out his Demon Core to absorb!”

Upon hearing this, the person on the bed suddenly jerked violently, even his pupils contracted into a thin slit.

”Oh dear, he’s awake.” Mo suddenly looked amusedly at Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian turned her head, looking at those cat-like eyes, immediately filled with affection.

”Wow, a colored contact lens in this shade might look quite good huh?” After observing for a moment, sensing the nervous and uneasy emotions of the person in front of her, she called out: ”Elder Deng, he’s awake.”

”Ah? Awake?!” Elder Deng was instantly filled with surprise, crowding forward with a group of people beside him. Anyway, since the person couldn’t break free, they quickly performed various checks.

Mo calmly pulled Luo Qianqian back two steps, retreating to the door.

Luo Qianqian was full of curiosity, but in the next second, she saw the person formerly restrained on the bed leap up, shaking off the straps and the instruments on his body. Now standing on the bed, he was looking around warily, and the white cloth that was draped over him fell to the floor.

Mo covered Luo Qianqian’s eyes with his hand, whispering: ”Close your eyes, don’t worry.”

Luo Qianqian stood against the door, her face blushing deeply, softly responded without speaking, obediently closing her eyes.

The large tail of the person on the bed was extremely agile, raised high, even exceeding the height of his upper body, making it very conspicuous.

And for those knocked down onto the ground by his sudden movements, not daring to move, even if they got injured due to the commotion, they wouldn’t dare provoke him for fear it might cause serious repercussions. He clearly wasn’t someone they could control, if Luo Qianqian and Mo weren’t in this room, what might happen was unknown. Elder Deng rubbed his cheek hit by a piece of metal fragment, secretly relieved, glad it happened now, otherwise, wouldn’t the research institute suffer immeasurable losses?

”Ow ooo ow ooo ow ooo...”

When he opened his mouth, no one understood what he was saying; even Luo Qianqian looked puzzled, wondering if he was provoking them?

However, soon he quieted down, looked in Mo’s direction, with a few hesitant glances, quickly confirming by walking a couple steps toward him.

Then he slowly nodded, while Mo calmly held Luo Qianqian’s arm, softly asked: ”We need to take him away, is that okay?”

”Huh?” Luo Qianqian suddenly opened her eyes, just embraced the light before seeing anything, her eyes covered by Mo: ”Can we take him away?”
