Chapter 1323: Chapter 1317: Sudden Change
Poof!
Ye Xiyao opened her mouth to say she was fine, but a mouthful of blood was already spilling out, and her head tilted to the side as she fainted in Li Changlin’s arms.
“Xiyao, Xiyao!”
Li Changlin cried out in alarm, yelling loudly.
“Sister Xiyao.”
“Xiyao!”
The won in the car all scrambled out in panic, rushing toward them.
Li Changlin picked up Ye Xiyao and shouted loudly as he turned back, “Chen Mingjiang, drive the car over right now!”
Li Changlin knew that Xiyao’s illness must have flared up again. With only one month left before Xiyao turned twenty-four, his heart grew even more tense.
Not long after, Chen Mingjiang drove the car over. Li Changlin carried Ye Xiyao into the car and issued a hurried command to head straight for the hospital.
Although the Li Family had doctors, they lacked the equipnt available in hospitals.
Chen Mingjiang did not dare delay and imdiately steered the car out of the estate, speeding toward the nearest hospital.
It was a high-speed ride, and who knew how many red lights they ran along the way. Twenty minutes later, the car finally arrived at the hospital.
Li Changlin jumped out of the car carrying Ye Xiyao, racing toward the ergency departnt as he shouted anxiously for doctors and nurses.
A nurse spotted the situation and imdiately wheeled over a dical cart. Li Changlin carefully placed Ye Xiyao onto the cart, and the nurse quickly pushed it toward the ergency room.
Li Changlin followed close behind, and before long, they arrived at the ergency room. The dical cart rushed in, leaving Li Changlin blocked outside the door.
At this point, he was in bad shape, his clothes covered in blood.
Chen Mingjiang quickly arrived after parking the car and took off his jacket to drape it over Li Changlin.
Li Changlin leaned his hand against the wall, his heart filled with worry.
“Young Master, please sit down. Miss Ye will surely be fine,” Chen Mingjiang hesitated slightly before softly comforting him.
Li Changlin nodded silently and sat down on a chair by the wall, his frustration palpable.
Today’s events had left him furious.
He had never imagined that the major Ancient Martial Families would dare to make a move against him.
Xiyao’s incident was definitely because she was worried about him, which had triggered her illness.
These families would not be spared lightly.
Narrowing his eyes, Li Changlin suppressed his anger, vowing that once Xiyao woke up, he would make these families pay a heavy price.
The wait dragged on for more than an hour. During this ti, Lin Ruonan and the others arrived one after another, silently accompanying Li Changlin outside the ergency room.
Finally, the doors to the ergency room opened, and the nurse pushed the dical cart out. Everyone imdiately stood up as Li Changlin anxiously asked, “Doctor, how is the patient?”
“The patient has regained consciousness, but her body is extrely weak and needs to be hospitalized for observation,” said a somber female doctor in her fifties.
Li Changlin nodded, naturally without objection, and the doctor made arrangents for hospitalization. Of course, there was no need for Li Changlin to handle these matters personally as Chen Mingjiang promptly took charge.
Soon, Li Changlin and the others accompanied the nurse, wheeling Ye Xiyao to the inpatient departnt.
Although Ye Xiyao was awake, her body remained extrely frail. She wanted to speak, but Li Changlin stopped her.
When they reached the inpatient departnt, the nurse arranged a private room. Li Changlin gently placed Ye Xiyao onto the hospital bed while the nurse set up an IV drip and gave so instructions before leaving the room.
The inpatient departnt’s nurse then took over care.
At this mont, Li Changlin raised the bed slightly and began speaking softly to Ye Xiyao.
Ye Xiyao grasped Li Changlin’s hand, her eyes filled with worry, her voice tender as she said, “Brother Changlin, don’t go to the Upper Realm!”
Although Ye Xiyao hadn’t seen the carnage at the cottage, she could already deduce much from the bloodstains covering Li Changlin’s clothes.
In the eyes of mortals, the Upper Realm was an unimaginably lofty place, akin to the dwelling of gods.
For Li Changlin to seek two Divine Artifacts there was an almost insurmountable task.
But how could Li Changlin abandon his mission? Clutching Ye Xiyao’s delicate hand, he solemnly said, “Xiyao, don’t overthink. Brother Changlin will be fine. I’ll retrieve the Sky-opening Axe and the Xuanyuan Sword, and then I’ll completely cure your illness. When that ti cos, we’ll be together forever.”
“But I don’t want Brother Changlin to take such risks!”
Ye Xiyao shook her head, her eyes shimring with tears, fully envisioning the difficulty and danger of securing Divine Artifacts in the Upper Realm.
The Upper Realm was nothing like the mortal world. It was filled with countless powerful figures, and rumors spoke of incredibly formidable cultivators—the most terrifying part of all.
Li Changlin comforted her softly, talking with Ye Xiyao for a long ti before finally calming her down.
Beep beep beep…
Just then, Li Changlin felt the System vibrating intensely. Alard, he quickly pulled out his phone to check.
Entering the System, Li Changlin noticed a connection request. He realized Ye Haoshen had sothing urgent to discuss, so he imdiately clicked to connect.
Before long, the call connected, and Ye Haoshen’s anxious voice ca through: “Changlin, there’s been a change. Pure Yang Palace has reneged!”
“What?” Li Changlin froze montarily, a sinking feeling brewing in his heart. He urgently asked, “Grandfather Ye, what’s going on? What do you an Pure Yang Palace reneged? What happened exactly?”
“Pure Yang Palace wasn’t sincere about cooperating with us. That Ice Soul Snow Lotus has already been hidden in endless void space. Changlin, I’ve sent the Eight Artifacts back to you. Shortly, I’ll disconnect your teleportation to prevent Pure Yang Palace from seizing the Eight Artifacts again. From here on, you must take care of everything yourself. If Pure Yang Palace contacts you, rember to demand they hand over the Ice Soul Snow Lotus first. Xiyao’s ti is running out. You might have to temporarily send her to the Upper Realm—for Xiyao, you…”
Before Ye Haoshen could finish speaking, the call abruptly disconnected.
Li Changlin stared in shock at the System, his worry intensifying.
He imdiately tried reconnecting, but the System showed no further response.
“Why is this happening? Why is this happening!”
Li Changlin was on the verge of losing control. Ye Haoshen’s revelations had nearly shattered him.
Without the Ice Soul Snow Lotus, how could he save Xiyao?
It was over, completely over!
Li Changlin’s heart scread in despair, and the entire room fell into silence in this mont.
“Brother Changlin.”
After a long while, Ye Xiyao finally called out softly.
Li Changlin snapped back to his senses and swiftly held Ye Xiyao’s delicate hand, saying, “Xiyao, don’t worry. Brother Changlin will definitely retrieve the Ice Soul Snow Lotus!”
“It’s impossible. Grandfather Ye has already shut down your System.” Ye Xiyao shook her head, her voice soft as she murmured: “Brother Changlin, perhaps this is just my fate. Please don’t take any more risks.”
“No, I won’t give up!”
Li Changlin shook his head, his voice firm.
