After treating his injuries, Xiao Yi quickly prepared something simple to eat. After filling his stomach, he immediately returned to his room and began to regulate his breath.
Having just administered the Seven Needles, the consumption of his cultivation power was enormous; he needed to recover it through breath regulation.
He continued regulating his breath for over two hours before Xiao Yi awoke from his meditative state. He sensed the cultivation power within his body; although it had not fully restored, it was mostly replenished. Only then did Xiao Yi get out of bed and prepare to go fetch medicine for that woman.
Before leaving, he checked on the woman again in that room, reassured that her recovery was proceeding without any anomalies, and then turned to head downstairs.
"Keep an eye on the person upstairs for me, and make sure no outsiders disturb her," he said.
