Chapter 185.2: The Correct Opening Sequence For Treating Acrophobia
Mu Lai’s finger tapped on the corner of the table and she then said: “We cannot have you being like this. Although there are many of us in the Elixir Cultivator Department, how would our department look if our First Disciple does not take part? We must definitely think of a way to help you overcome this weakness of yours.”
“Do you know of any way to resolve it?” Tan Lin Ruo immediately asked, his face filled with antic.i.p.ation.
Mu Lai smiled. “Of course there are ways to do that.”
For some unknown reason, Tan Lin Ruo just could not help but s.h.i.+ver when he saw that smile on her face.
“Ahhhhhh~”
“Little Junior! Hurry up and pull me up quickly! Little Junior! Junior, I am so terrified here…..”
“I am going to die! I am really going to die!”
“It’s too high! It’s really too high like this! I don’t want to be treated anymore! I’ll just not take part in the compet.i.tion and just having you represent the Elixir Cultivators Department is good enough! !”
“Junior, do you hear me? Pull me up right now! I am really dying from fright here ahhhh….”
On the mountain behind the Faint Mist Sect, winter mornings were usually crisp and quiet here, where not even the sound of birds would be heard. But on this day, a horrible demonic wailing was heard reverberating out from it.
Hanging off a sheer broken cliff, from a rope that was just about a finger’s width with one end tied around a tree a good distance away, and the other end of the long rope reaching over the edge, was a person. His face was deathly pale, covered in buckets of cold sweat. That person turned out to be Tan Lin Ruo.
He was holding on for dear life onto the rope that encircled his waist, attempting to climb upwards. But at such a great height, he was just too terrified, not daring to make any big movements, and had no choice but to beg for help from the person above.
Mu Lai was seated idly up on the cliff top, listening to the heart rending cries and she then said emotionlessly. “Senior, I am only doing this for your own good. From now onwards, we will dangle you over this cliff for four hours everyday. When you get used to it over time, you will naturally be rid of your phobia.”
“My dear Junior, can we change to another method already? Something a little more mild…..” Tan Lin Ruo’s voice was trembling incessantly, and he could feel that his entire body had gone numb.
His body suspended in the air was swaying to and fro under the wind rus.h.i.+ng up from the bottom of the cliff and the thin rope looked like it was going to snap in the middle at any moment. It was just too terrifying to watch.
Mu Lai listened to the useless sounding man’s faltering voice and shook her head ruefully, thinking that he should be better than this. “Senior, what are you so worried about? Will I really want to cause you any harm? As the respected Faint Mist Sect’s Elixir Cultivators Department’s First Disciple, Elder Jin’s favourite star pupil, and you are going to give up on the chance to take part in the Three Great Sects’ Friends.h.i.+p Meet. Do you think that Elder Jin will die from rage if he hears about this?”
Hearing those words from her, Tan Lin Ruo could not help feeling ashamed. But the fear in his heart was really hard to control and he gulped as he asked: “Junior….. this rope…..”
