Chapter 11

The recording jade crystal could capture the surrounding images and sounds. She planned to keep the other party’s “evidence of guilt”! That way, when she went out to spread the word, the other party would have no way to defend themselves.

“At that time, let’s see how you embarrass yourself! Compared to Brian Carter teacher, you’re just dreaming!”

Thinking that she would soon have the other party’s “evidence” with the recording jade crystal, and that she could also teach the other party a lesson to vent her anger, Emily Clark’s eyes sparkled. She almost couldn’t hold back her laughter, suppressing her happiness as she waited to hear what nonsense the other party would spout, when suddenly she saw a pair of bright eyes, lantern-like, stop right in front of her.

“Ah…”

Emily Clark was startled and quickly took a step back. Only then did she see clearly that it was Michael Bolton teacher. Gritting her teeth in anger, she said, “What do you want?”

“Relax, I just want to take a look!” Michael Bolton clasped his hands behind his back, circled around Emily Clark, shook his head, and suddenly stopped right in front of her, less than a foot away.

Feeling the scorching heat radiating from the other party, Emily Clark’s face flushed. Since childhood, no man had ever been this close to her. Her heart was pounding with nervousness, not knowing what to do, when she heard the other party’s slow voice: “You’re sick!”

Hearing this, Emily Clark almost exploded on the spot and fainted: “You’re the one who’s sick! Your whole family is sick…”

She was about to go crazy.

This guy must have something wrong with his head. She had just demonstrated her martial arts and asked him to point out her flaws, but he just said she was sick. How could there be such an infuriating person in the world!

“How can you insult people like that?” Michael Bolton frowned, then realized his words were ambiguous, and smiled slightly: “I mean your body is ill, I wasn’t insulting you!”

“I’m not sick!” Emily Clark snorted coldly. “I think you’re the one who’s sick! Must be something wrong with your brain!”

She was as strong as an ox, able to punch with over a hundred kilograms of force. Whether she was sick or not, she knew very well herself.

“Don’t be so quick to deny it. Don’t you often feel a dull pain at the Tanzhong and Juque acupoints? Especially on nights of the full moon, when the damp wind rises, your whole body flushes red, you feel irritable and restless, and there’s also…” At this point, Michael Bolton hesitated, as if unable to put it into words, and could only say, “No matter how you cultivate, you just can’t calm your mind?”

“You… how do you know?”

Originally furious, Emily Clark had planned to deny whatever he said, but upon hearing this, her face turned red and she was stunned.

It wasn’t that he was wrong—he was too right!

Recently, during her cultivation, she had felt a dull pain at the Tanzhong and Juque acupoints every day. Of course, the pain wasn’t severe, and she could endure it, but the key was… every full moon night, when the cool wind blew, her body would feel strange, a strong desire would arise, her whole body would flush, and she would lose control of her emotions, wishing a man would hold her…

She was just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl who had never experienced such things, so she had no idea what it was, only feeling extremely embarrassed. She thought she could just endure it, but it kept getting worse. As her body developed and her chest became fuller, the situation only intensified.

Before, running through her cultivation twice would get her through it, but now, even eight or ten times didn’t help, so she could only keep cultivating until dawn.

Because this matter was so strange, she hadn’t dared tell anyone—not even her closest friends or her father, the city lord, knew anything!

No one knew… so how did this guy know?

It was precisely because she couldn’t endure it any longer that she came to the academy to study, hoping to find the cause and resolve it once and for all.

“I’m a teacher. I could tell just by watching your set of punches!” Michael Bolton said calmly.

Of course, it was impossible to see all that just from her punches, but the Library of Heaven’s Path was different. As long as she had any flaws, even if they weren’t related to her cultivation method, they would be recorded.

It was because he saw her problem that Michael Bolton’s expression was so strange.

“Is there… a solution?”

Emily Clark blushed and gritted her teeth.

Just now, she had been aggressive, wanting to expose him, but now that he had pointed out her problem in one sentence, she felt embarrassed instead.

“There is a solution. Come to class tomorrow, and I’ll explain it to you!”

Michael Bolton waved his hand.

“Really?”

Emily Clark’s eyes lit up, unable to believe it.

She knew her own body very well. It was precisely because she was losing control that she had become irritable and anxious in everything she did. She thought this was something she would have to keep buried in her heart forever, with no way to resolve it. She never dreamed that this teacher, ranked dead last among all the faculty, would see through it with a single sentence!

And… he even had a way to treat it!

“If you don’t believe me, you can go ask the other teachers at the academy!” Michael Bolton flicked his sleeve, looking calm and composed, like a true master.

“No, no… I’ll stick with you, teacher!” Emily Clark nodded quickly.

She hadn’t been suffering for just a day or two. Countless doctors in the city hadn’t figured it out, not even her father, Mr. Clark, had noticed anything wrong. This Michael Bolton teacher had seen through it with just one glance. Just his insight alone was unmatched by anyone she’d ever met!

Because of this, she was sure he must have a way to cure her.

“That recording crystal—are you still planning to keep it?”

Michael Bolton pointed with his finger.

“Ah…”
