Dugu Zixi saw his grandparents, his parents, and his aunt all looking at him with expressions of extre sadness and sorrow once he had finished speaking.
Clever as Dugu Zixi was, he instantly understood what they were thinking.
He smiled helplessly and said to them, "Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, Aunt, you all don’t actually think that this is the last burst of clarity before I die, do you? I’m not! I’m telling you, I really am cured!!"
Upon seeing his grandson’s earnest expression, the old patriarch of the Dugu Family finally reacted, and imdiately shouted at the guards, "Quick, fetch President Sun right now, imdiately!"
"Yes!"
The guard promptly summoned Sun Datong, who held a status akin to that of the imperial physician to the Royal Family in ancient tis.
Dugu Zixi was the lifeblood of the Dugu Family and the only grandson in five generations of sole inheritance.
It seed like a curse had afflicted the Dugu Family for five generations; each generation, despite all efforts, could only leave behind a single son.
In Dugu Zixi’s generation, his parents had only him as their child.
His parents had never avoided pregnancy, yet they could not have another child, not even a daughter.
One could only imagine how important Dugu Zixi’s existence was to the Dugu Family.
Sun Datong was recognized as the top doctor in Shenzhou Country with the best dical skills.
Before retiring, he was the president of the National dical Science Research Institute, the chairman of the dical Association, and also a visiting professor at the nation’s top university’s dical departnt.
His dical expertise was acknowledged as the pinnacle among ordinary physicians.
Thus, when Sun Datong announced that Dugu Zixi would not live past eighteen, the entire Dugu Family felt despair.
But just when their despair reached its peak, Dugu Zixi suddenly stood up and said he had miraculously recovered!
Who could believe such a fantastical event?
Naturally, everyone in the Dugu Family attributed his lucidity and energy to a transient revival before death.
Yet deep down, they all intensely hoped that what Dugu Zixi said was true—that his body was truly healed!
The whole family suppressed their inner excitent and urgency, waiting for Sun Datong, the authority in the dical field, to re-examine Dugu Zixi and provide a new diagnosis.
As Shenzhou Country’s number one noble family, the Dugu Family naturally possessed imnse wealth.
Due to Dugu Zixi’s terminal illness, the Dugu Family had built a very complete and top-notch dical research lab.
After retiring, Sun Datong was employed by the Dugu Family to be Dugu Zixi’s chief physician.
When Sun Datong received the summon from the patriarch’s guard, hearing that Dugu Zixi was in great health, he too was utterly shocked and kept saying, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
The nearly seventy-year-old Sun Datong imdiately grabbed his dical kit and ran towards the Dugu Family’s main residence, showing no sign of his age.
When Sun Datong saw Dugu Zixi, his eyes widened with astonishnt in an instant.
With almost fifty years of dical experience, Sun Datong knew, even without the use of instrunts and just by the traditional thod of visual diagnosis, that Dugu Zixi was in excellent health.
To confirm that his visual diagnosis was not mistaken, Sun Datong took Dugu Zixi’s pulse, did a blood test with instrunts, and after checks with both Chinese and Western thods, he looked at the test results showing Dugu Zixi’s health to be several tis better than the average person, so astonished that he was speechless for a long ti.
No one knew Dugu Zixi’s body better than Sun Datong.
His illness had reached a critical stage, and he could have died at any mont.
Yet, this man on the brink of death had fully recovered his health in less than half a day, and was even healthier than the average person.
How was this possible?
What on earth had happened to Dugu Zixi?
Sun Datong shared this astonishing result with the Dugu Family.
All mbers of the Dugu Family were so overjoyed they shed tears.
Their only heir had truly been saved!
After their joy and excitent, the Dugu Family, like Sun Datong, was filled with countless questions.
After hesitating for a long ti, Sun Datong cautiously asked Dugu Zixi, "Zixi, may I presu to ask how your illness was cured?"
The elder Mr. Dugu also asked urgently, "Zixi, you said that a Little Fairy saved you, is that true?"
Upon hearing the elder Mr. Dugu’s words, Sun Datong quickly asked further, "What Little Fairy? Zixi, what did this Little Fairy say to you?"
Dugu Zixi looked at the excited faces before him and thought of the Little Fairy who had captured his heart. He couldn’t help but smile faintly, "She said she was a Little Fairy sent by heaven to save . Then, she told to sleep, and when I woke up, I really felt better. The Little Fairy who saved was gone. At first, I thought I was dreaming. But it wasn’t a dream. I really am better..."
Towards the end, a light lancholy tinged Dugu Zixi’s face.
He still didn’t know where Shen Tianxing was when he was sent out.
Then, he rembered Shen Tianxing’s words. She said that the Lifespace was bound by their souls; it belonged to both of them, and they could enter the Lifespace from anywhere.
Could he then re-enter that Lifespace?
At the thought of this possibility, Dugu Zixi’s eyes lit up again.
Furthermore, the thought that this Lifespace belonged only to them made Dugu Zixi feel a burning warmth inside him, as if his whole body and soul were enveloped in a sweet, warm current.
Just as Dugu Zixi was about to get up and leave to try and enter the Lifespace again, the elder Mr. Dugu and Sun Datong simultaneously asked him, "What’s the na of that Little Fairy? Where is she now?"
Dugu Zixi shook his head with regret, "I don’t know either. She only said she was a Little Fairy sent by heaven to save , and then, with a wave of her hand, I passed out. When I awoke, I was already cured."
Sun Datong felt that what Dugu Zixi was describing sounded utterly fantastical.
Yet the reality of it was right before his eyes.
The terminal illness of Dugu Zixi, according to their traditional dical practices, absolutely could not be cured in just a few hours.
And his current physical condition was like he had been under long-term care, much better than an average person.
This was absolutely not sothing an ordinary person could achieve!
Sun Datong’s dical skills were already at the pinnacle among ordinary doctors, and he thought his life would just continue in this way.
But now, the miraculous recovery of Dugu Zixi’s terminal illness suddenly made him realize the ergence of a Divine Doctor far above any ordinary dicine.
Who exactly was this Little Fairy that Dugu Zixi spoke of?
