Chapter 1217: She Couldn’t Have Died, Right?
Ning Shu had no choice but to try over and over again. Since her own safety was currently guaranteed, she did really want to complete this task.
She continued to experiment nonstop, only pausing to do her job and eat. She even spent her sleeping time on this. Finally, after half a month, she was able to guide the energy to her fingertips. It finally worked!
Ning Shu was extremely happy. She could guide the energy out of her body now, which meant she could use it to attack! However, this was only useful when the energy was suitably strong.
This current strand of energy that was only about as thick as a strand of hair had no attack power at all.
Late at night, Ning Shu went to the kitchen to cook some goat milk, then snuck into the wet nurse’s room to look at the child in the cradle. She placed her hand on the little lady’s back and slowly guided her energy into the little lady’s body.
When the energy entered the little lady’s body, the little lady suddenly started crying. Ning Shu was startled and hastily covered the child’s mouth. She looked over and saw that the wet nurse was turning around restlessly on the bed. She didn’t bother to get up and check, probably since the child wasn’t crying anymore.
Ning Shu was a little puzzled. This energy was very gentle, so why did the child start crying?
When she looked back down, the child had closed her eyes. Ning Shu’s heart dropped in fear. She couldn’t have died, right? She hastily felt the child’s chest. Her heart was still beating.
The child seemed extremely sleepy. She didn’t even drink the goat milk. Ning Shu put the child back in the cradle and covered her with a thin blanket.
Then she left with the goat milk. She looked at the pure white goat milk for a moment, then chugged it down.
She was rather relieved. At the very least, the energy of the Unsurpassable Martial Arts would be able to slowly strengthen the little lady’s body. That way, her risk of dying young was a lot lower.
Ning Shu no longer visited the little lady every night anymore, because now Lady Niohuru would occasionally have her stay on night watch. How could the duty of night watch fall to a cleaning maid?
Could it be that Lady Niohuru was about to promote her?
Ning Shu didn’t say much and just did as she was told. In any case, she couldn’t sleep if she was on night watch, so she just took advantage of this chance to practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. If she could form more energy, she could transfer a little to the little lady, and while at it, also enhance her own physical strength.
That night, it was Ning Shu’s turn to be on night watch again. Ning Shu helped Lady Niohuru prepare for bed. Lady Niohuru then extended her hand and said, “Check my pulse.”
