Quincy had not been home for a while, so there was no food in the kitchen. Moreover, she was not the
type to cook
Therefore, she resorted to ordering takeout James took out his phone, opened a map, and scrutinized
it.
After ordering food, Quincy turned around and peeped at James‘ phone. She asked out of curiosity,
“What are you looking at?”
Quincy‘s body leaned against James, and he could feel the residual warmth on her skin. The two
looked incredibly intimate.
James explained, “Ten years ago, I jumped into a river after Thea pulled me out of the inferno. My body
drifted along the river, and I was washed up inside an underground cavern, where I found my medical
book.”
“So, that‘s where your medical skills came from.” Quincy came to a realization. “Yeah.” James nodded
and continued, “The cavern was huge. I was starving and hurriedly left after finding the medical book
and some silver needles. My guess is there must be an Internal Martial Arts cultivation method in there.
However, I can‘t pinpoint the exact location of it.”
After explaining, James closed his eyes.
Ten years ago, he drifted along the river for a very long time and did not know how he ended up in the
underground cavern.
On top of that, he could not determine where he left from either.
All he knew was that after he left the underground cavern, he kept traveling south and arrived at the
Southern Plains. Ultimately, he became a soldier there.
He had no idea how long he had been wandering before arriving in the Southern Plains. Thus, he was
unable to identify the underground cavern‘s location. “Argh!”
James was racking his brain when a headache struck again.
In his head, it felt like countless worms were chewing on his brain, and his face distorted as he let out a
painful groan.
“I told you to stop thinking so hard.”
Quincy immediately stood up, climbed onto the sofa, and sat behind James.
“Here, lean back I‘ll give you a massage.”
James leaned back on her.
Quincy gently massaged his head, and the pain slowly subsided. “Is it necessary to find that
underground cavern? Look at yourself. How are you going to find it in this state?” Quincy asked
worriedly
“I have to find it. I‘ll die if I don‘t. I still have a lot to accomplish and am not ready to go yet,” James
closed his eyes and muttered. Although he wasn‘t scared of death, there were things he wanted to
achieve before dying. It was not time yet.
He was poisoned, and cultivating True Energy was the only currently known method to detoxify the
venom,
Whatever the chances, he was willing to give it a shot.
Quincy refrained from saying anything more and quietly massaged James.
James closed his eyes and enjoyed it. Before he knew it, he was fast asleep.
The symptoms kept intensifying as the venom continued to spread in his body. Not only was he prone
to hunger, but he also became tired easily.
Quincy gently laid James on the sofa and covered him with a blanket.
James slept for more than an hour and woke up when his stomach began grumbling.
He could smell the delicious food as soon as he opened his eyes. Instantly, his appetite increased
He turned around and sat up on the sofa. Glancing at the food on the table, he subconsciously smiled.
“It smells good!” Quincy had already set up the food and was getting the utensils. She came back and
prepared to feed James.
“I‘m not at the point where I can‘t even hold my own utensils. Give it to me. I can feed myself.” James
took the utensils from Quincy‘s hands and began eating
Quincy also picked up her spoon and began eating while peeping at James.
Suddenly, she sighed.
After the meal, James asked Quincy to buy him a few maps.
When she returned with the maps, James immediately began estimating the underground cavern‘s
location.
