When Xiaoi and Xiaoli arrived, He Xue finally snapped out of her shock.
What did she see?
This so-called Stellar Stone, this so-called luminous thing.
It was actually a person!!!
And this person was none other than Xia Liu, who was struck by a giant beast from the Stellar River to this place!
"Ah! Princess! Could this person be the so-called Stellar Stone that fell from the sky?"
"Stellar Stone, could it be in human form?"
Xiaoi and Xiaoli exclaid in surprise.
They didn't dare to imagine, could it be true that immortals really exist in the world?
The person before them, is he not a human, but an immortal?
"He must be an immortal!"
Regaining her senses, He Xue imdiately beca overjoyed.
There's no mistake!
He is definitely an immortal!
"Princess, his bones are shattered all over, his breath is extrely weak, he seems to be on the brink of death."
Xiaoli's identity is not just as the princess's personal maid.
She is also her personal imperial physician.
Xiaoi has impressive combat skills, even surpassing He Xue.
Her responsibility besides taking care of He Xue is as her personal guardian.
When Xiaoli conveyed this news to He Xue.
He Xue was dumbfounded.
How could an immortal suffer such severe injuries?
"Could it be that he was in a duel with other immortals and was severely injured like this?"
It must be so!
He Xue was almost proud of herself.
Without ever encountering the world of immortals, she could still guess their daily life!
"Princess, I suggest that if we don't leave quickly, His Majesty will definitely arrive with the army."
Xiaoi surveyed the surroundings, she already had a strong premonition.
At most, half an incense stick of ti, the cavalry of Holy Bright Nation would arrive.
"There's no ti to lose, let's take him back first."
He Xue said excitedly.
"This..."
Upon hearing He Xue wanting to take an unknown person back, Xiaoi and Xiaoli hesitated.
"Stop hesitating, this person is an immortal, when he recovers, we shall gain immortality!"
...
Xiaoi and Xiaoli exchanged a glance, their thoughts transparent.
After so discussion, Xiaoi was responsible for escorting Xia Liu away.
Because Xia Liu's bones were shattered all over.
There couldn't be any large movents.
Xiaoi was known for her exceptional strength and power.
This was sothing He Xue was aware of.
She felt assured handing Xia Liu over to Xiaoi.
Shortly after, the three rode horses down a small path quickly leaving the confines of Holy Bright Lake.
Once they were well away, the sound of thundering hooves echoed across the land.
Just as Xiaoi had predicted, the cavalry of Holy Bright Nation arrived quickly.
When the army saw the state of Lake Protect Heart, they were stunned.
So soldiers directly kneeled: "A sign of disaster! Holy Bright Nation is facing great calamity!"
"Silence! With Lake Protect Heart's water vanished, and the lakebed dry and hard, it's an on of prosperity!"
The cavalry leader spoke, his face turning pale.
These words were so false, everyone present knew it.
Before the emperor of Holy Bright Nation arrives, they can speak of rise and fall.
But later, it must not be ntioned!
That night, the entire nation was restless.
The populace wanted to know what had happened.
It wasn't until the third day, did everyone receive an answer issued by the nation.
Because a stellar teorite fell, smashing a mountain peak, causing such tremors.
After receiving the answer, the populace's fervent discussions finally subsided.
Their greatest fear was the outbreak of war amongst the four nations.
In such a case, North Cool County would suffer imnsely, with corpses littering everywhere.
Despite that, so didn't believe the teorite smashing the peak story.
Thus, secretly, so people went to seek clues.
So among them are spies from the other three nations.
They had infiltrated Holy Bright Nation, aiming to find its weaknesses.
If they were to discover this tremor originated from Holy Bright Lake, with all water from Lake Protect Heart gone.
The consequences would be dire.
Lake Protect Heart depleted, indicating Holy Bright Nation's fate is nearing collapse!
The emperor of Holy Bright Nation certainly wouldn't let such a thing happen.
False information was issued to stabilize the populace.
The area around Holy Bright Lake was sealed off, with wise ministers tasked to investigate the truth.
While all departnts of Holy Bright Nation were busy.
No one noticed the Princess Mansion.
A person wrapped like a mummy in white bandages lay upon a luxurious bed.
His face appeared serene and handso.
Even within the palace, he could be considered a supre-grade beautiful man.
Beside the bed, He Xue donned a noble attire.
She wished for the immortal to first see her when he awoke, at her most beautiful and noble self.
Regarding He Xue's thought, Xiaoli felt sour.
Because she was the main physician treating Xia Liu this ti.
Though her life experience might not be extensive.
She had seen over a thousand patients.
And read over ten thousand dical texts.
She had never seen anyone as severely injured as this.
She couldn't fathom, injured so gravely.
His organs were displaced, with signs of internal bleeding faintly discernible.
How could he still have breath?
Another thing, his entire skeleton was shattered.
Several spots were incurable shattered fractures.
Why could he endure the agony and not die?
Logically, at the mont his skeleton shattered.
He should have been killed by the pain.
That's not an agony a person can endure.
Strange!
Really strange.
"Xiaoli, when do you think he will regain consciousness?"
He Xue could hardly wait.
Yet she spoke softly, fearing she'd disturb Xia Liu.
"Probably in a few more days…"
Xiaoli wanted to say, it's unlikely he'll awaken in this lifeti.
Understanding she couldn't let the princess be heartbroken.
Perhaps with ti, her excitent might diminish.
Might eventually lead her to accept the truth that the person on the bed may never wake.
"Xiaoli, you're not being honest, you said this a few days ago, and now again."
He Xue rose, pinching Xiaoli's cheek.
Although Xiaoli's dical skills were remarkable, she still had youthful features, which displeased He Xue enough to pinch her when unhappy.
"Princess, I can't be certain when he'll awaken due to his severe injuries."
Xiaoli expressed bitterly.
What could she do? She was just as despairing.
When applying dicine for Xia Liu, she used the palace's best herbs.
Regardless of the treatnt, everything was the finest given to him.
If he never awakes, it's down to his fate.
"Alright, it's not completely your fault, hopefully he recovers soon..."
He Xue really was joking with Xiaoli, trying to lift her own lancholy spirit.
But now it seed there was no relief.
"Princess, I believe you shouldn't cease cultivating for his sake."
In these three days, Xiaoi hadn't seen He Xue wield her sword, solely focused on an immortal awakening.
That's incorrect, because even if the immortal wakes.
She won't suddenly rise to immortality.
"I'm showing respect to the immortal, but you're right, I should continue cultivating."
Thinking He Xue had regained her initial zeal.
Yet hearing her continued explanation, Xiaoi nearly lost it.
"Because while cultivating, ti seems to fly by…"
...
Shortly after the three left, upon the luxurious extravagant bed.
The inert body remained still.
Yet beneath the cool quilt, a section of a little finger abruptly shivered slightly…
