"I'm going to continue practicing!" Xiao Ning'er coldly stated as she stared at Nie Li with her bright, clear eyes.
Xiao Ning'er didn't like being disrupted by others. She had an expression that 'pushed people thousands of miles away' on her face, and because she rarely associated with the students in class, especially the boys, the friendless her seemed somewhat eccentric.
"I will leave, immediately!" Nie Li said as he faintly smiled. He checked her out from top to bottom.
Xiao Ning'er's brows wrinkled.
Isn't the way Nie Li is looking at me a bit too rude? she thought. She couldn't help feeling somewhat angry. There were lots of boys chasing after her in the Holy Orchid Institute, but Xiao Ning'er had always ignored them. She only wants to focus on her training. Therefore, Nie Li's actions right now was no different from the other boys in the institute. It was simply hateful!
"Are you still not leaving?" Xiao Ning'er wasn't happy by her tone. Nie Li had been disrupting her for quite some time now.
Nie Li's gaze landed on Xiao Ning'er's legs. She wasn't wearing any shoes, and he could see a pair of creamy slender legs illuminated by the moonlight, which were slightly red.
He said, "When night falls, don't both of your legs feel as if they're being burned by fire?"
After hearing what Nie Li just said, Xiao Ning'er was slightly stunned and soon answered, "How did you know?"
Due to the burning heat, when training at night, Xiao Ning'er usually wouldn't wear shoes.
"Of course I know," Nie Li smiled, "Not only this, I know even more. Not only do both of your legs feel as if they were being burned by fire, your body would be extremely cold. Every night at midnight it would feel as if it was hailing on your body. It would be terribly painful. Even training your soul force wouldn't be possible, would it?"
Xiao Ning'er was shocked by Nie Li's words. She had been enduring the pain alone and did not tell anyone about this, not even her family members. How did Nie Li know about it?
Seeing the expression on Xiao Ning'er's face, Nie Li knew that he had guessed correctly. So Xiao Ning'er's previous life's illness was the Arctic Disease. By training at night, it would often lead to chilled air entering the body, blocking the veins. The Arctic Disease would, in light cases, cause the person to get seriously ill, and in serious cases, it would cause the body to explode. So Xiao Ning'er from his previous life was already very lucky to be bedridden for only two years.
"In addition to these symptoms, your body should be bruised in certain areas. Those bruises should be extremely painful and not only do they not dissipate, they should also be spreading around the body, " Nie Li said confidently, "You haven't stepped into 1-star Bronze rank yet, but once you do, in the best case scenario, you will get seriously ill and your cultivation will be greatly reduced. In the worst case scenario, you will die."
After hearing Nie Li's words, Xiao Ning'er was momentarily dazed. Both of her fists were clenched tightly, and her eyes reddened. How could this be? Even though she's very strong, after hearing the news, she couldn't endure the blow.Nie Li could tell what her illness was with one glance. What he said shouldn't be wrong.
Ever since she was young, her family had been wanting for her to marry into the Sacred Family, by marrying Shen Fei. As she grew up, Xiao Ning'er gradually learned what kind of person Shen Fei was. Because she didn't want to get married to that playboy, she started practicing very hard with hopes of getting rid of this cruel fate. Unfortunately, the heavens didn't seem to want to let her do so, since she who would soon reach 1-star Bronze rank, suddenly got to hear such news.
