1192 Untainted Body
Once Yuan was completely naked, the female servants gestured him to the bathing area.
"Please step on the footprints and stand there while we wash your body." They pointed at the red footprints that were engraved on the floor.
Yuan stepped on the footprints, which required him to spread his legs a little apart.
One of the servants then showed him a translucent bar of soap and said, "This bar of soap was made from a multitude of ingredients that are used for cleaning impurities, but its most important ingredient would be the Translucent Dew of Purity, a very popular and potent medicine used to cleanse impurities."
The other servant then said, "We will be scrubbing your body with this soap, which will not only cleanse the deepest parts of your pores, but also draw out any impurities that may be hidden within your body, so do not be alarmed if impurities start coming out."
"Translucent Dew of Purity? What's the difference between that and the Translucent Dew of Flawlessness?" Yuan asked, as they sounded awfully similar, which couldn't be a simple coincidence.
"The Translucent Dew of Purity is second to the Translucent Dew of Flawlessness, which is the best medicine when it comes to cleaning impurities. Although they both have the ability to cleanse one's impurities, the Translucent Dew of Flawlessness will continue to purify one's body of impurities while the Translucent Dew of Purity will only do it one time."
"Unfortunately, Translucent Dew of Flawlessness are exceedingly rare. Even if the Royal Xi Family has some, they wouldn't be reckless enough to use it in such a wasteful manner."
"I see…"
The servants proceeded to dissolve the soap in some warm water before scrubbing Yuan's body with the bubbles using their bare hands.
Yuan swallowed nervously as he could feel 20 slender fingers caressing and massaging all over his body. And due to his heightened senses from his cultivation, such sensation only became clearer to him, who could feel every individual finger independently.
This reminded him of his time as a cripple, when he had to rely on someone else to clean his body for him.
Of course, since they were required to clean every corner of his body, the servants also had to clean the dragon and its treasures between his legs, which made Yuan a little nervous.
Not wanting his dragon to awaken in such a situation, Yuan began reciting the Heaven Consuming Technique inside his head, which worked wonders.
He sighed in relief inwardly when they were finally finished with that area.
As time passed, Yuan noticed that the servants were gradually increasing the pressure of their washing until it reached the point where they were essentially giving him a deep body massage.
Yuan thought this was routine, but unbeknownst to him, that was not the case.
Meanwhile, the servants washing his body were greatly perplexed and shocked when not even the slightest impurity came out of Yuan's body despite how much they washed his body.
They thought they had used the wrong soap at first, but once they confirmed that they were indeed using the right soap, they wondered if they were not washing hard enough, and the thought of Yuan having an Untainted Body never even occurred to them. Furthermore, even if Yuan cleansed his body the day before, since all entities collect impurities every second, it was impossible for Yuan to have a body free of impurities.
Eventually, the ladies came to the realization that Yuan might have an Untainted Body.
"Um…" One of the servants slowed down her movements as she asked, "Young Master… Do you happen to have an Untainted Body…?"
"Yes, I do." He answered without the slightest pause.
"..."
Both ladies completely halted their movements after hearing such words, and they looked like they were on the verge of crying.
They wanted to ask why he didn't tell them in advance, as they have been scrubbing his body for over half an hour while it could've been done in less than a few minutes, but they managed to keep their question inside their heart.
'No, this was our fault… We should've realized it sooner, especially since he mentioned the Translucent Dew of Flawlessness…' They sighed inwardly.
The ladies then washed away the soap on his body and gestured at the bathtub, "Please soak in that water for 5 minutes."
"I understand."
While Yuan soaked in the water, one of the servants left to notify the Xi Family.
"Your Majesties, the Young Master is currently soaking in the Dragon's Tears. He will be done in 5 minutes." The servant bowed to them.
However, Xi Mingze had a frown on her face.
"What is taking you two so long? You should've been done 20 minutes ago. I hope you didn't do anything indecent to our guest."
The servant immediately paled and shook her head, "We wouldn't dare! We took longer than expected because we didn't know the Young Master had an Untainted Body, so we just kept on cleaning his body…"
While they might have been distracted by Yuan's peerless body, which might have caused their thinking to slow down, the servant would not admit to it even if it was the last thing she did.
"An Untainted Body? That means he'd consumed the Translucent Dew of Flawlessness…" Xi Shengmo was surprised to hear this. "Didn't he say that he came from the Lower Heaven? Where did he acquire something as precious as that down there?"
"If he managed to come to this place when he was in the Lower Heavens, I wouldn't be surprised if he somehow managed to acquire that kind of treasure down there." Xi Mingze smiled.
Five minutes later, Yuan emerged from the bathtub. The servants quickly dried his body with this silky smooth and pure white towel that felt and looked like it was made of clouds before dressing him in this pure white bathrobe.
Feeling completely refreshed, Yuan returned to Xi Mingze and Xi Shengmo, who had finished their preparations long ago.
"Are you ready?" Xi Mingze asked him.
He nodded.
"Follow us."
They immediately opened the metal doors and entered the room with Yuan following right behind them.
