Feng Tianlan nodded slightly. She could empathize with Luo Yunzhu. In this cruel, dog-eat-dog world, only the fittest survived. The weak remained downtrodden and were unable to protect themselves—let alone other people.

Chuling stood to one side and watched Luo Yunzhu enviously. How nice to be able to cleanse the marrow and become stronger, she thought. She also wanted to become stronger and protect her Miss, but she was only a maidservant and had no such privilege.

“This is yours,” Feng Tianlan said when she saw Chuling looking on in envy. She passed her a ceramic bottle. “As long as you can get through this, you’re one of us.”

“Miss, this is…” Chuling looked at Feng Tianlan, confused.

“It’s a Marrow Cleansing Pill.”

Chuling’s eyes opened wide when she heard these words. She wanted to reject the offer, but Feng Tianlan interrupted her, “I made this one—I didn’t buy it. So, don’t worry and just take it.”

At first, Chuling did not know how to react. Then, slowly, she started to cry. Her tears kept falling as she said, “I just knew…”

She knew that her Miss was not a good-for-nothing! Her Miss was the nicest person in the world! She knew her Miss would definitely reap rewards for blessing others, so she was definitely not a good-for-nothing!

Feng Tianlan felt warmth in her heart when she saw that Chuling was so happy that she was crying and couldn’t even speak. She said, “You can cleanse your marrow at the same time as Yunzhu. I believe that both of you can become stronger.”

Having Chuling and Yunzhu as her buddies was the best thing that happened to her in this second chance at life.

“Alright.” Chuling clenched her fists, her eyes full of fortitude. She was determined to become stronger and not let her Miss down.

Luo Yunzhu and Chuling both swallowed the Marrow Cleansing Pill without hesitation. Almost immediately, both of them were sweating profusely, and their faces were as white as paper.

The process of marrow cleansing included purging the bones as well as the meridian channels. It was like breaking all the bones in the body and rearranging them. Having one’s meridian channels pulled apart and rearranged was a pain that was felt in the marrow. It pierced through to the soul. One can only imagine how terribly painful marrow cleansing is!

Despite this terrible pain, Luo Yunzhu and Chuling did not give up. They gritted their teeth and endured. Finally, when they could bear it no longer, they screamed.

“AHHHHH!”

The two screams broke the tense atmosphere. Feng Tianlan glanced at the hourglass and saw that exactly two hours had passed, which meant that the process was complete.

“Tian…Tianlan.”

Luo Yunzhu’s body was drenched with sweat, as if she had just been pulled out of water. She lay on the bed, her face all white, and looked at Feng Tianlan weakly. She had managed to endure the pain. But…was the marrow cleansing successful? Luo Yunzhu was right to be nervous. Not everyone could cleanse their marrow successfully. Feng Tianlan checked her over, then wiped the sweat off her face.

“The marrow cleansing was very successful. You can try training now.”

Luo Yunzhu gave her a satisfied smile and closed her eyes, breathing hard. She had no more energy to keep her eyelids open. This was definitely the most pain she had ever experienced. But it was worth it!

Feng Tianlan quickly ran over to look after Chuling, who had passed out. She was as wet as Luo Yunzhu. Feng Tianlan wiped away the sweat on her face, worriedly calling her name, “Chuling, Chuling!”

Chuling slowly opened her eyes and saw Feng Tianlan looking at her anxiously. Tears started rolling down her face, and her voice was full of guilt, “Your lowly servant has let you down. I wasn’t able to endure it to the end. I’ve wasted your precious medicine.”
