Douluo—Chapter 3: Touched Xiao Wu? Tang San Was Furious!
If it was just an ordinary massage, she wouldn't be too excited.
But Ye Chen's massage technique could actually improve soul power! This made her inexplicably thrilled!
After all, cultivation is very difficult and arduous.
But now, just half an hour of massage could be equivalent to several days of hard training.
How could she refuse such a good thing?
"Miss Xiaowu, your injury is in your waist, so please lie down and expose your waist," Ye Chen reminded.
Massage should be targeted—he can't just massage feet for all ailments. He's not a foot fetishist...
"Okay… okay…" Xiao Wu blushed a little, but she gradually relaxed when she thought of what Ye Chen had just said.
After all, he is a technician—almost like a doctor.
They are professionals who can cure ailments, and in their eyes, there is no distinction between men and women.
If she still held prejudices against him, it would be really rude.
Soon, Xiao Wu adjusted her posture, lifted her clothes to reveal her slender waist.
"Alright, I'm going to start."
As Ye Chen spoke, he poured some special essential oil onto his hands, rubbed them to warm up, wrapped his palms with soul power, and gently covered her spleen point at the lower edge of her shoulder blades.
"Hold on."
Ye Chen suddenly exerted force with his left thumb, pressing deeply into the Shenshu point.
"Um..."
Xiao Wu groaned, and her meridians lit up with a spider-web-like blue light under the virtual panel—this was her instinctive resistance to stimulation.
Ye Chen took the opportunity to push his right hand along the bladder meridian toward the Sanjiao point, with soul power flowing at the base of his palm to stimulate her fascia.
"You're even more ruthless than Zhao Wuji…" Xiao Wu groaned, clutching the edge of the couch, and her Mingmen acupoint in her lumbar region suddenly contracted.
Ye Chen bent his middle finger joint and tapped rapidly on the Ciliao point on the upper edge of her sacrum. Each tap was accompanied by a "bang bang" sound of fascia popping.
When the fifth tap came, a trace of black air seeped out of Xiao Wu's waist, and the vigorous soul power accumulated by her eight-stage fall overflowed from the cracks...
Xiao Wu felt her whole body relax and suddenly fainted.
"Ah! Xiao Wu..." Ning Rongrong exclaimed and immediately ran over with concern.
"Don't worry, she just fainted and will be fine soon," Ye Chen said, applying a warm towel soaked in spiritual herbs to Xiao Wu's waist and sacrum, gently massaging.
Sure enough, after about ten minutes, Xiao Wu slowly opened her eyes...
"Hmm... how did I fall asleep? Rongrong, how long was I out?" Xiao Wu looked at Ning Rongrong in a daze and asked.
"About ten minutes, not long. How do you feel now, Xiao Wu?" Ning Rongrong hurried over, concern evident in her voice.
When Xiao Wu turned over, sat up, and adjusted her clothes, she twisted her waist gently and immediately felt an incredible ease.
"I feel much better, and my soul power has really increased!!" she exclaimed with surprise.
In fact, her waist injury was minor and could be healed in a day or two. It was just that the training intensity at Shrek was too high, leaving her little time to recover, so it didn't have a serious impact.
What surprised her most was the improvement in her soul power!
In just over ten minutes, her soul power had increased as much as it would in two or three days of hard training—just as Ning Rongrong had said!
If she came for a massage every day, her training speed could be two or three times faster than others!
This made her very happy.
"Alright, you two, go back~" Ye Chen smiled and said. "Massage can only improve soul power once per day. You can come back tomorrow."
"Thank you, boss. I have another sister. I'll definitely bring her here tomorrow!" Ning Rongrong said happily.
Previously, she thought Ye Chen's method was only effective on women and had some ulterior motives.
Now she realized it was a genuine benefit for girls like them!
How could Dai Mubai and the other stinky men be qualified to enjoy such treatment?
"Okay, it's getting late. Let's go back quickly." Ye Chen led them to the door, waved, and said, "By the way, my name is Ye Chen. You can call me by my name or Boss Ye from now on."
"Okay, goodbye, Boss Ye~" Ning Rongrong responded, then skipped away holding Xiao Wu.
Ye Chen returned to the shop and immediately began examining the rewards Xiao Wu had given him...
[Congratulations to the host for completing a massage service. Overall evaluation: B+. Reward: Primary Defense Array *1]
[Xiao Wu's favorability reaches 5%. Reward: "Soul Ring Years +800."]
[On the first day of checking in Xiao Wu, trigger a critical hit reward and obtain "10,000-year-old Earth Barbarian Bear Right Arm Soul Bone."]
[Expertise breakthrough—massage Xiao Wu once, and be rewarded with "Spiritual Power +20".]
…
"Hiss! As expected of a girl of luck—she scored a critical hit on her first try! And the rewards are so luxurious!"
When Ye Chen saw his current rewards, he took a deep breath.
Moreover, this is a B-level massage, and a critical hit grants a ten-thousand-year soul bone.
Then wouldn't an A-level evaluation reward for critical hits be 100,000 years?
And an S-level? A million years?
Although the chance of a critical hit is very small, as long as he could land one, he might be able to take off directly!

Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy.
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong sneaked back quietly.
"Fortunately, we weren't discovered~" Ning Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Flanders wasn't watching them.
Every day at noon, they had to do physical exercises like running—which lasted two hours and depended on their self-discipline.
Ning Rongrong often used this time to sneak out, but this time she secretly brought Xiao Wu along.
"Xiaowu, Rongrong, you're back?"
"Rongrong, you're finally back. Luckily, the dean isn't here. If he saw you slacking, you'd be severely punished."
Tang San, Oscar, and others, who were doing exercises on the playground, all ran over when they saw Xiao Wu returning.
"Rongrong, where did you go? Didn't you say you were just going out to buy some things?" Tang San looked at Ning Rongrong with suspicion.
Clearly, Ning Rongrong's secret trip with Xiao Wu had annoyed him.
"Humph, of course we went to practice. My soul power was directly increased to level 27!"
Ning Rongrong snorted softly, releasing her martial soul and soul ring.
Tang San felt her aura and looked surprised—her soul power was already at level 27!
"What? Rongrong is already level 27? That's incredible!" Oscar exclaimed.
"Ning Rongrong, you're about to break through to level 27, and you're still making excuses," Dai Mubai said, lips curled.
"Xiao Wu, what did you do? Did you really go practice?" Tang San also looked suspicious and asked.
"We actually went for a massage, but the owner had excellent techniques. Not only did he help me eliminate hidden injuries, but he also improved my cultivation. That's how Ning Rongrong made her breakthrough," Xiao Wu explained honestly.
"How is that possible? Did you get scammed? How could such a massage parlor exist?" Oscar and Ma Hongjun both looked incredulous.
"If you could become stronger just by doing a massage, why wouldn't we just do that instead of practicing so hard?" they added.
"That's impossible. That massage parlor only offers massages for girls," Ning Rongrong said with a smile, gently shaking a finger.
"What! Xiao Wu, was the person giving you a massage a man or a woman?" Tang San immediately asked.
"Male... male…" Xiao Wu's face turned slightly red, and she hesitated, feeling guilty.
"WHAT!!"
"You actually let a man give you a massage?"
Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai were both shocked.
"Shit, this must be the massage parlor that sent out those little cards a few days ago—remember the password? Ye's Massage Parlor! I think it's not a legitimate place!" Oscar exploded.
"Let's go check it out!" Tang San led the way.
Oscar and Ma Hongjun followed, eager to see what was going on.
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong felt anxious and hurried after them.
You could tell at first glance that the boss was a good person—not only did he offer discounts, but his skills also looked excellent.
They definitely couldn't repay kindness with hatred. How would outsiders view them otherwise?
