Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes

Chapter 635: Chapter 615: Don’t Repay Kindness with Harm

Shen Han continued to read on, finding something peculiar about this Binding Realm.

Because from within the Binding Realm, he saw some familiar things.

Binding Realm, twelve bindings.

The first binding is on the skin.

If one cannot unravel the first binding, then the new cultivation system is completely unsuitable.

The second binding is on the flesh.

As a person, a being of flesh and blood.

To bypass the skin without bypassing the flesh, one’s strength is insufficient.

Next, the third binding is on the veins, the fourth on the tendons.

Then, successively, the fifth on the bones, the sixth on the six harmonies of Qi, the seventh on essence and blood, the eighth on the internal abode.

And the ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth bindings.

Are the apertures within the body, if all apertures are opened, then the twelve bindings are completely unraveled.

Looking at what was written in this tome, Shen Han felt even more familiar.

These things, he hadn’t seen for the first time.

During his time in Great Wei, he and Shi Yuezhu were exploring that Little Pool Secret Realm.

He had learned an acupuncture technique there, the "Nine Needles of Lingshu."

The Nine Needle Technique within, was precisely corresponding to this.

First needle for the skin, second for the flesh, third for the veins, fourth for the tendons, fifth for the bones, sixth for harmonizing yin and yang, seventh for benefiting essence, eighth for dispelling wind, ninth for unblocking the nine orifices.

If the binding wraps around the affected area, it can be viewed as a disease.

Then by using the Nine Needle Technique, could it not unravel these bindings?

According to this tome, how many bindings one can unravel depends on talent.

Heaven opens several paths for you, thus you can only open several.

In the Southern Heaven Continent, a person’s potential is judged by this.

In the common impressions of everyone, this binding is what it is.

It is absolutely not easily changed.

In the Southern Heaven Continent, there are also treasures that can unravel bindings.

But such treasures, even among Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, are considered quite rare.

Shen Han, in his contemplation, felt that this Nine Needles of Lingshu technique might be able to heal it.

If this binding is regarded as a symptom, the Nine Needles of Lingshu can handle it one by one.

Two two-hour periods did not last long.

While Shen Han was pondering, the third two-hour period was almost over.

As Song Xiaobing quietly came to call him, Shen Han snapped back to consciousness — the time had come.

Coming to himself, Shen Han immediately left the Book Collection Pavilion.

Song Xiaobing took a risk to help him, he certainly could not harm her.

There are not many people with a simple temperament, and someone like her is easily hurt.

But the person who would harm her certainly wouldn’t be him.

Having spent nearly two two-hour periods reading, Shen Han only paid for one two-hour period’s worth of Contribution Points.

He indeed benefited from Song Xiaobing’s kindness.

After chatting casually with Song Xiaobing for a few minutes, Shen Han headed towards the bamboo tower.

While walking on the road, Shen Han was always thinking about the matters of the Binding Realm in his heart.

Maybe he should try the Nine Needles of Lingshu acupuncture technique to see if it can truly unravel those bindings.

This set of Nine Needles of Lingshu was learned from the legendary Little Pool Immortal.

If it truly holds such wonder, it would be normal.

It’s just, he wants to give it a try.

But it seems difficult to find someone he could practice acupuncture on...

Thinking of this, Shen Han suddenly paused his steps.

Perhaps he could look for Song Xiaobing.

If it’s possible, it would repay her a favor.

Moreover, if it truly can unravel bindings, he might swiftly gain Contribution Points.

The items he has on him, even if fully traded for Contribution Points.

Would only total two to three hundred points.

For Shen Han, it’s completely insufficient.

He cannot fully indulge in reading these tomes.

With enough Contribution Points, he could browse freely.

For a moment, Shen Han turned back.

He was skillful enough in the Nine Needles of Lingshu, even if this acupuncture technique cannot unravel bindings and doesn’t possess such miraculous ability.

At least he could offer some help to Song Xiaobing.

And perhaps strengthen the body a bit.

When she saw Shen Han return, Song Xiaobing was somewhat surprised.

"Weren’t you out of Contribution Points and returning to rest?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Han laid out the prepared words.

"I recently received a chance encounter, an extraordinary master, who can help me regulate my body and improve its condition.

However, I haven’t even undergone Washing Marrow yet.

I can’t bear the goodwill of the master.

I thought about it, and it’s better to give this opportunity to you.

Surely you have the Binding Realm’s strength, right?

If you don’t, you won’t be able to receive this opportunity."

Shen Han spoke convincingly, especially since there was a condition that required Binding Realm strength.

As these words came out, they suddenly seemed much more genuine.

Song Xiaobing, a rather simple girl, upon hearing this, her eyes lit up a bit.

"Are you giving this opportunity to me...?"

It was clear that Song Xiaobing indeed had some expectations for this opportunity.

Young and pure people always believe opportunities will fall on their heads.

Fortunately, she met Shen Han.

"Tomorrow at 7:00 AM, ten miles northwest, the senior will be waiting there for an hour.

If you go on time, you can receive this opportunity.

My strength is far from the Binding Realm, so I can only pass it to you..."

Finishing his words, before Song Xiaobing could say anything in gratitude, Shen Han left first.

At the end of 5:00 AM, Song Xiaobing switched shifts with others and then returned to her residence.

Seeing her return, her sister, Song Xiaodie, seemed to find it a bit odd and couldn’t help but look at her a few more times.

"You child, did you sneak off to eat honey? Why are you so happy?"

Upon hearing this, the smile on Song Xiaobing’s face grew even bigger.

"Sister, you always say pies don’t just fall from the sky, but this time, one really has fallen on me.

I’ve got a great opportunity~"

Upon hearing this, Song Xiaodie’s eyebrows unconsciously furrowed.

"What do you mean? What opportunity?"

"Of course, it’s an opportunity that can enhance my strength, hee hee~"

Song Xiaobing said.

However, before she could finish her sentence, she was grabbed by her sister and made to sit down beside her.

"Explain clearly, or don’t even think about leaving today."

Song Xiaodie had already keenly sensed something.

She knew her sister was simple and easily deceived.

So she naturally kept a much tighter rein on her.

Being pulled by her sister, Song Xiaobing had no choice but to recount everything she experienced to Song Xiaodie.

She mentioned that it was a servant disciple who told her.

And that this servant disciple hadn’t even undergone Washing Marrow...

Thinking of these, Song Xiaodie lightly tapped her sister’s forehead with her finger.

"You, can you not make me worry.

You believe the words of someone like this?

He’s just a servant disciple, why would he come by such an opportunity?

He’s deceiving you, targeting you!

You fancy the opportunity, but he fancies you!"

Song Xiaodie’s vigilance far exceeded that of Song Xiaobing.

But even after saying this, Song Xiaobing still pouted slightly, looking a bit unconvinced.

With this in mind, Song Xiaodie directly led Song Xiaobing.

She wanted to take Song Xiaobing to confront Shen Han.

She knew where the servant disciples lived.

Song Xiaodie was an inner sect disciple of the Thick Earth Tower, her strength ranking at the bottom tier.

So she needed to practice diligently every day to meet the demands of being an inner sect disciple.

The job that Song Xiaobing got, recording at the Book Collection Pavilion entrance, was also helped by her sister Song Xiaodie.

With a quarter of an hour until 7:00 AM, Song Xiaodie pulled her sister and headed towards the servant disciples’ residence.

The place where the servant disciples lived was in that area, with only that row of bamboo buildings.

The bamboo houses were small, yet could accommodate many people.

Of course, if there wasn’t enough space, no one would come to manage.

Anyway, the servant disciples had to figure things out themselves, whether to live in the wilderness or to fight for it, it was up to them.

Song Xiaobing resisted going.

In her heart, she was still grateful to Shen Han for willingly sharing the opportunity with her.

But her sister didn’t think well of others, yet still wanted to blame them...

This made Song Xiaobing somewhat unable to accept it.

"Sister, he was helping me..."

"Helping you?

He might as well sell you off, if not for my constant protection of you.

By now, you would have lost everything!"

Song Xiaobing pouted, her face full of complaints.

"Shen Han repays kindness, I helped him, and he helped me."

Upon hearing the words ’repays kindness,’ Song Xiaodie’s face showed even more anxiety.

She quickly asked her how she helped Shen Han.

Hearing that Song Xiaobing found a way to let Shen Han spend one contribution hour but look for almost two hours.

This news made Song Xiaodie extremely angry.

"Do you realize, Song Xiaobing, you are already in trouble with him!

If the elder finds out, it won’t just be you, but me, your sister, who will be implicated!"

Song Xiaodie said angrily, speaking faster as she walked.

When they arrived in front of the bamboo building, they asked other servant disciples to call Shen Han.

Seeing Song Xiaodie’s identity as an inner sect disciple, these servant disciples dared not slack off.

Previously, when Wen Ranran came, many people saw Shen Han coming out of that room.

Immediately, they went to call Shen Han.

Everyone was watching the scene with the air of it being a spectacle.

Just after causing trouble with Wen Ranran, there was trouble again.

Coming out of the house, Shen Han saw Song Xiaobing, and beside her, Song Xiaodie with a solemn face.

Walking towards them, Song Xiaobing immediately rushed to speak.

"I’m sorry, my sister is just overly concerned about me..."

Although Song Xiaodie hadn’t spoken yet, Song Xiaobing had already guessed that her sister must be planning to blame someone.

She already felt a bit guilty in her heart.

Seeing this, Shen Han actually felt that it was quite normal.

If it were himself, he might not easily trust others either.

Seeing her younger sister speak, Song Xiaodie turned her head and glared at her.

Then she turned to face Shen Han.

"My sister has a simple and kind temperament, but because of this, she can easily be deceived.

She has helped you, so I hope you won’t repay her kindness with malice by harming her."

Song Xiaodie looked up at Shen Han, her eyes filled with endless seriousness.

"You should understand what I mean."

Upon saying this, Song Xiaodie paused.

"As for that opportunity, you can keep it for yourself, my sister doesn’t need it.

You can give it to whomever you want.

All I ask is that you don’t repay her kindness with malice and harm her!"
