Suddenly, the spilt water was recollected.
The Celestial Scroll unfurled from under Cao Erzhu's feet, and a beam of Heavenly Mechanism Mysterious Light descended upon him, rapidly repairing his body.
Limbs, torn yet connected by threads, followed the flow of blood to reattach themselves...
Eyes were grabbed and shoved into his mouth, then extracted and wiped across his nostrils before being fitted back into their sockets...
The wounds on his body healed bit by bit, his robust muscles ceased tearing, appearing as perfect as jade sculpture...
Cao Erzhu's facial features all returned to their simple and honest appearance from before.
But this time, after a slight movement of his features...
A mischievous force, that should not have been present, appeared in his eyes!
An unattainable smirk that could take a lifetime to learn now played at the corners of his mouth!
Cao Erzhu opened his mouth, his voice no longer deep and heavy but unexpectedly gentle:
"How could that be?"
