Poison Qi

Alex asked her a few more questions, shrinking down the possibilities until he was left with a more concrete understanding of the issue the woman faced.

"I will have to see if I can figure out where the problem lies. I can only tell then if I can help you or not," Alex said.

The young woman nodded.

Alex took her wrist and checked her.

Even before checking, he already had some ideas of what the problem could be. The most major issue he figured it could be was that she had small or weak meridians.

So, when she did cultivate, the Qi would push on it, expanding it a bit beyond its capacity, making her feel the pain.

Alex could not see where else the issue could lie, so he checked her meridians first as he went through her body. As expected, the woman had weak meridians.
