Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian)

Chapter 376

"I can't stand it anymore. Please take me." Lillian's breath came in quick as she frantically tore at her clothes, clearly unable to endure the effects of the poison any longer.

Should he go through with it?

Sebastian hesitated.

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he had hoped to preserve her purity to aid in his cultivation breakthrough. But if he didn't act, her vessels would burst, and she would die from the poison.

"Ah! How did I forget about this?" Sebastian muttered to himself as he opened a small box, revealing the phoenix blood herb inside.

The phoenix blood herb contained immense energy, capable of enhancing one's cultivation base and cleansing the body. If given to Lillian now, it could not only expel the poison from her system but also help her embark on the path of cultivation.

Sebastian quickly plucked a leaf and placed it in Lillian's mouth.

However, in her delirious state due to the effects of the drug, she couldn't chew it properly. She was only aware of the burning desire within her and didn't know how to chew.

Sebastian needed to crush the leaf and make her ingest it, but there was no water or tools around.

Sebastian had a sudden idea.

He placed the phoenix blood herb leaf in his mouth, chewed it, and then transferred the leaf mixed with his saliva to Lillian's mouth with his own.

This method worked, but Lillian clung to him tightly, refusing to let go or open her mouth again.

He had to forcibly push her away and then undress her to help with the cooling process.

This, however, was a task that tested his self-control to the extreme.

Lillian's perfect body and the alluring sounds she made were almost too much to handle.

Taking deep breaths to clear his mind, he placed a hand on her body and began to channel his energy to help her refine the phoenix blood herb leaf.

Even though it was just one leaf, it contained an immense amount of energy, especially for someone with no cultivation base like Lillian. Her unique constitution allowed her to

withstand the energy.

Any ordinary person would have been overwhelmed by even this small amount.

Suddenly, Lillian's moans of discomfort turned into screams of agony.

The process of cleansing her body, or "washing the marrow and purging the veins", had begun.

This was a torturous procedure, as it involved expelling all impurities from her body. It was akin to scraping off filth clinging to her veins and bones.

Lillian's screams, which grew increasingly pained, tore at Sebastian's heart, but Sebastian had to ignore it for her good.

The ordeal lasted for a half-hour, during which the energy from the phoenix blood herb leaf was entirely refined, and her body was thoroughly purified.

Most of the impurities had been expelled from her body. Her once fair skin was now covered in a layer of grayish, sticky residue with a faint stench.

The impurities expelled from her body were relatively minimal compared to what most people would experience during purification. Typically, there would be a few times more expelled impurities, and the grayish or blackish impurity would emit a foul stench.

The purging had also successfully removed the toxins from Lillian's body.

As Lillian regained consciousness, she realized she was completely naked. Her face was flushed with embarrassment.

Lillian screamed again upon noticing the layer of grime covering her body. "What is this stuff?"

"I helped you with a Purge," Sebastian explained. "These are the impurities expelled from your body."

Lillian was shocked. She had always considered herself clean, never imagining that so many impurities were hidden within her body.

"Put on some clothes. I'll take you to a place where you can wash up," Sebastian said. Sebastian had seen a clear stream on his way here. He knew it would be a good spot for her to clean herself. It was early autumn, and while the weather was still somewhat warm, the cool water would be refreshing rather than cold.

As Lillian washed herself in the stream, she felt self-conscious with Sebastian watching her. Sebastian ignored her even when she told him to give her some privacy.

Despite having been seen by him before, she still felt uneasy due to their lack of a deeper relationship.

Before long, Zia arrived at the location Sebastian had provided with a set of clothes.
