He took a deep breath to calm himself and after evenly spreading the ointment in his palm, he firmly applied it to the wounds on Ye Jingyu's back.
"Mhm," Ye Jingyu's delicate body suddenly tensed up.
"Does it hurt a lot? I'll be gentler," Lanling said.
"No, use force so the medicine penetrates deep into the muscles and bones," Ye Jingyu replied.
