The nearby maids, who had been quietly waiting beside the bathtub, immediately stood up. Lucy, who had personally been overseeing everything, smiled with obvious relief.
"Lana. You've finally woken up."
Lana weakly nodded. However... before she could ask another question... her stomach loudly growled.
Lucy couldn't help smiling.
"I know you're hungry."
She gently laughed. "But before eating anything... You should wait for the black materials to vanish."
Lana looked at her in confusion. "What do you mean?"
Lucy patiently explained, "After your breakthrough was completed, we thought everything had finally ended."
She shook her head.
"But your body continued undergoing another round of purification. As your cultivation stabilized, countless dark impurities began seeping out from every pore in your body. They completely covered your skin. They also released an incredibly foul smell."
She smiled helplessly.
"In the end... Master Axel ordered us to clean you up before you woke."
