The medical treatment for Patriarch Zhen Shi and Hermit Zhong Wei went as smooth as butter.
The arena where they were performing makeshift operation was entirely empty and looked to have been clean recently.
There was a momentary scare, where it had turned out that the Zhen Clan's storehouse had actually ran out of the medical ingredients that Zhen Jin needed, but as luck would have it, a servant had been sent out earlier to purchase the items as a routine resupply.
As for the treatment itself, Miss Lucille proved to be even better with manipulating her cutting wind than anticipated, as she managed to excise Zhen Shi and Zhong Wei from the [Parasitic Wyrmwood] with minimal cuts and blood loss.
Honestly...it was a bit anti-climatic.
Then again, a medical procedure where everything went smoothly was much preferred over one where everything went wrong. Especially after a battle against a freaky aether monkey that seemed to defy logic.
