"Do you smell something stinky?"
The next morning, as soon as Zhou Hong woke up, she spoke.
It was a nauseating stench of rot, exceptionally repulsive.
"Let me check." Chen Li had also smelled it, and after getting up and searching for a while, it was only with Zhou Hong's reminder that he discovered the smell was coming from himself.
A layer of faint grey sheen seeped out from his body, staining a large patch of the mattress beneath him.
He understood immediately.
He hastily slapped on several Cleaning Talismans, which finally rid the bedroom and himself of the filth.
"Don't worry, it's a good sign. Recently, there has been a breakthrough in Body Refinement, probably because of this," Chen Li explained with a smile, his face slightly proud.
"You scared me to death." Zhou Hong's worry turned to joy, then she suddenly stared at Chen Li, her expression in awe, "You seem to have gotten younger!"
"Really? Let me see."
