It wasn't good to delve into someone's destiny. So, Demi nodded and smiled at the man before looking at the sky.
The clouds reflected sunlight from the rising sun, turning into red and gold colors. The scenery was magnificent.
Once the man was about three steps away from her, he stood in place.
Both of them watched as the sun rose slowly.
Demi couldn't help but smile at the sight.
When the sun had fully risen, she looked at it for a while, then turned and nodded at the man again before preparing to head down the mountain.
Just then, she heard a man yelling anxiously from below the mountain. "Mr. West Senior? What happened? Please wake up, Mr. West Senior!"
Demi paused briefly before rushing down the mountain. At first, she strode quickly, but when she heard the man's cries turning frantic, she started running.
To be honest, it was very easy to fall if one ran down a mountain.
However, it was an easy feat for Demi. She moved across the ground gently, almost as if she were a bird in flight.
After running for around a minute, she saw a figure in the distance.
An old man, Benedict West, was wearing a red traditional attire. He was sprawled on the floor while another middle-aged man, Sean West, wore a grey suit. The latter was sitting on the ground and hugging Benedict while yelling anxiously for help.
Demi took out her acupuncture needle kit from her spatial ring in advance.
Standing in front of the two men, Demi crouched down and said sternly, "Don't move. I'll treat the patient with needling therapy."
Sean was extremely happy once he heard that. However, when he realized that Demi looked like a teenager, he was flabbergasted.
"Do you really know how to cure people?" he stammered.
"Yes."
While she spoke, Demi stuck a needle into Benedict. Her speed was fast, and she seemed to know the acupuncture points very well.
Though Sean hesitated, he couldn't stop her in time.
Ten seconds later, Demi exhaled deeply and stood up.
