The wooden planks on the deck were covered with a layer of white frost that was visible to the naked eye.

The surrounding air seemed to be gripped and frozen by an invisible hand.

Qianxuan felt his throat was a little dry.

He had no doubt that if he said the wrong thing, the woman's hand would be like a red-hot branding iron, pressing directly onto his forehead.

"Calm down, calm down."

Qian Xuan raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, but his expression was unusually calm, even showing a hint of compassion from a doctor looking at a patient.

"When I said you're not young, I wasn't trying to insult you; it was just an objective assessment from a purely medical perspective."

The woman's brows furrowed even more deeply.

From a medical perspective?

"There are signs of mild strain between your third and fourth vertebrae. This is a typical symptom of poor power transmission in the lower back caused by long-term high-intensity explosive physical training."

Qianxuan spoke slowly and clearly, as if he were giving an academic report.

"And your shoulder blades, although perfectly wrapped in muscles, I can see slight adhesions in the fascia at the joints. This causes a delay in chakra flow when you make large arm swinging movements."

"As for age..."

Qian Xuan paused, then looked directly into the woman's murderous eyes with a sincere expression.

"My assessment is based on the activity of the cells under your skin. Although you take excellent care of yourself and your skin is as firm as an eighteen-year-old girl's, the fatigue deep within your cells cannot be hidden. This indicates that you are constantly under high pressure and high intensity, and the damage to your body is far more serious than it appears on the surface."

The murderous aura emanating from the woman gradually dissipated under Qian Xuan's barrage of seemingly professional terms.

She was a little confused.

What on earth is this guy saying?

"Of course, I mean no offense by saying this."

Qianxuan noticed her wavering and quickly changed the subject, his tone filled with praise and appreciation.

"On the contrary, I admire you immensely. To maintain such a near-perfect state of body under such intense strain is nothing short of a miracle of human aesthetics! Your muscles, your bones, every inch of your chakra flow is brimming with power and beauty. This is no longer just a ninja's body; it's a work of art!"

Qianxuan's eyes were frighteningly bright, like a collector who had seen a priceless treasure.

"I said it was a pity earlier because I felt genuinely sorry to see such a perfect work of art with a tiny, insignificant flaw due to years of fighting. It's a kind of... occupational hazard, you know? When you see something imperfect, you always want to make it perfect with your own hands."

He patted his chest and gave a confident smile.

"I'm a medical ninja. If you don't mind, I can help you with your treatment. It's free. Consider it... my tribute to art."

"..."

On the deck, only the sound of the sea breeze could be heard.

The woman stood there, motionless, her sharp eyes fixed on Qian Xuan, as if trying to discern the truth or falsehood in his words.

She knows her own body best.

Having carried out high-difficulty missions year after year, fighting in the harsh environment of the desert, the number of hidden injuries on his body is countless.

Especially my lower back and shoulders, I feel a sharp, stabbing pain after each task.

She consulted the best medical ninjas in Sunagakure, but they could only tell her to rest more and couldn't come up with any effective treatment plan.

The seemingly carefree young man in front of me, after only a few glances, was able to describe my situation in great detail.

Could it be... that he is a hidden medical expert?

Qianxuan felt a little uneasy under her gaze.

His words just now were nine parts guesswork and one part of the keen perception of bodily structure brought about by the "Life Return".

As for his claims about fascial adhesions and cell fatigue, those were all just nonsense.

If this woman doesn't believe me and insists on taking action, I'm afraid I'll have to hand over "One-Sword Demon" here today.

Just as Qianxuan was beginning to consider whether to jump into the sea to escape or to start a fight directly.

The woman finally spoke.

"it is good."

In short, it was decisive and efficient.

Qianxuan's prepared remarks suddenly got stuck in his throat.

He stared blankly at the other person.

"What...did you say?"

I said, "Okay."

The woman repeated herself, her tone leaving no room for argument.

"You treat him."

"Here?"

Qianxuan pointed to the deck where people were coming and going.

The woman glanced at him, her eyes seeming to say, "Are you stupid?"

She didn't say anything more, turned around and walked straight towards the cabin.

Qian Xuan froze on the spot, his brain shutting down for a full three seconds.

no……

You believe that?

Sister, where's your ninja's vigilance?

We've only known each other for less than ten minutes, and you almost killed me with your eyes. Now you want to come with me into a dark room so I can "treat" you?

Aren't you afraid that I might be some kind of womanizer or a spy sent by a rival village, who might take the opportunity to sabotage you?

As Qianxuan looked at the purple figure from behind, a name suddenly flashed through his mind.

Scorching escape, Leaf Warehouse.

The hero of Sunagakure was ultimately used as a pawn in a political deal between the village's higher-ups. He was tricked into going to Kirigakure and died from the betrayal of his own people and the siege of Kirigakure ninja.

A complex and indescribable emotion suddenly welled up in Qianxuan's heart.

No wonder.

No wonder you were betrayed by your own people.

With your naive and innocent nature, it's a miracle that you've survived this long in the ruthless ninja world and even become a hero.

He sighed and followed.

That's enough.

Since you "trust" me so much, I'm going to get you cupping done today, bro.

Inside the cabin, there was a small guest room.

Yecang took off his coat, leaving him in only a black sports vest, and lay on the simple bed, revealing his smooth, firm, and powerful back.

Qian Xuanguan came to the door and took out a few... water cups from his ninja tool bag.

Hearing the noise, Ye Cang turned around and glanced back.

"These are your medical instruments?"

"Uh, I didn't bring my professional tools with me."

Qian Xuan explained without changing his expression.

"However, the principle is the same, so don't worry, the effect is absolutely guaranteed."

As he spoke, he took out a small bundle of mugwort and a box of matches from another scroll.

Tsunade prepared a variety of things for him.

Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.

He lit the mugwort, using the flame to scorch away the air inside the water cups, and then, with lightning speed, slammed each warm water cup onto Ye Cang's back with a "smack."

The suction is very strong, and the water cup adheres firmly to the skin, causing the skin to bulge slightly.

"Um……"

Yekura's body tensed up instinctively.

A warm, strange sensation, pulling at her skin and flesh, came from her back, making her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"relax."

Qianxuan's voice came from above.

"Don't resist this force; let your blood and energy flow with it."

His hand rested on Yekura's shoulder.

【reply】.

A pure stream of chakra, imbued with the essence of life, silently flowed from his palm into Yekura's body.

Qianxuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
