However... this is sowhat eerie!
"Generally speaking, a person should die first in the physical sense, with breathing stopping and the heart ceasing to beat... then the life force starts to dissipate." Chen Yan shook his head and said, "But she... her physical body hasn’t died yet, and her life force has already dissipated."
Chu Keqing raised an eyebrow: "Living dead?"
Chen Yan thought for a mont: "Not exactly, rather... her Spiritual Sense is almost gone, to put it simply, her soul is nearly extinguished."
"Soul? Like a ghost?" Chu Keqing frowned, also feeling sothing was amiss.
"A person’s life force isn’t tied to the physical body, but to the Spiritual Sense, which is commonly referred to as the soul." Chen Yan shook his head in response. "When the soul perishes, even if the physical body remains, the person is considered dead by the Heavenly Dao. But... in the case of Luo ifang, the order is reversed."
In fact, blocking Spiritual Sense to make the Heavenly Dao think soone is dead... Chen Yan had done this before when helping Lu Sisi alter her fate.
But with his abilities, he could only keep Lu Sisi in a false death state for a maximum of two hours...
If it lasted longer, the Heavenly Dao would truly remove Lu Sisi’s na!
And this woman has been lying in a coma in the hospital for several days!
"I guess, before she fell into a coma, her soul was already severely damaged, and the Heavenly Dao determined she was entering the process of death, so her life force began to dissipate. By now, most of it has already gone."
Chen Yan frowned, staring at Luo ifang on the bed.
This woman wasn’t exceptionally beautiful to begin with, just had a bit of charm.
Now lying in a coma for several days, her face appeared pale and haggard, with a faint hint of swelling.
Chu Keqing pondered Chen Yan’s words seriously, and slowly speculated: "So... while she was alive, soone used a special thod to directly inflict severe damage to her Spiritual Sense without harming her body? Severely injured her soul?"
"Yes, otherwise it wouldn’t make sense why her body isn’t dead yet her life force is dissipating. Because her soul was severely injured, she entered the death process as far as the Heavenly Dao is concerned."
Chu Keqing’s face turned somber: "Then it’s basically certain that the missing disciple’s words were true, my third senior brother was murdered! On the night he died, soone attacked him, and at the sa ti, they also attacked this woman, causing her soul to suffer fatal damage!"
Chu Keqing slowly walked to the bedside, carefully observing this woman, shaking her head: "Senior, with my limited knowledge, I don’t know if there’s a way to heal such severe damage to the soul."
"Fate lies in the heavens." Chen Yan shook his head: "The Heavenly Dao has already removed her na, and even reclaid her life force. How could she possibly be saved?"
Chu Keqing’s breath hitched, clenching her teeth: "What a pity, if only she could wake up, maybe she could provide so valuable clues."
Chen Yan lowered his head in thought, then after a while, lifted his head to look at Chu Keqing: "The people who hard your third senior brother are just those few in Port City, especially the one surnad Zhong you ntioned being most suspicious. Is this Luo ifang still that important?"
Chu Keqing sighed: "There are still a few people involved, if we have to investigate each one, it will be quite troubleso. If we could heal this woman, maybe one useful sentence from her could save us so detours, perhaps even directly pinpoint the target."
Chen Yan nodded thoughtfully, looking at Luo ifang on the bed, finally he smiled strangely at Chu Keqing: "I don’t have the ability to wrestle with the Heavenly Dao to save her. But... trying to get her to say a few words, I might be able to make an effort."
Chu Keqing’s eyes imdiately widened: "She, with her soul so severely damaged, is already ninety percent dead, you really can..."
"It’s just a trial." Chen Yan frowned: "After all, she is practically already more than half dead now, even if the attempt fails, we don’t lose anything."
After speaking, Chen Yan looked at Chu Keqing: "Have your assistant keep watch outside, then lock the door to prevent anyone from interrupting—my spell casting, it’s not good for outsiders to see."
"Alright!"
Chu Keqing imdiately went out, instructed her female assistant Xiaocai to guard the corridor outside, and then re-entered, closing the door.
Chen Yan took out a half-length Li Huo Candle, scratched a tiny bit of wax off with his fingernail, and gently sared it on Luo ifang’s forehead between her eyebrows.
Chu Keqing stared wide-eyed at Chen Yan’s movents, unable to identify what material the wax was, only feeling that this senior Chen Yan had unfathomable thods...
Sure enough!
After putting away the candle, Chen Yan stood firm, slowly extending his left hand, and with his forefinger, made a slight pointing motion at Luo ifang’s forehead...
With a swish, a faint blue fla suddenly rose on Luo ifang’s forehead!
Caught on fire?
Senior Chen Yan, is he trying to wake her by setting her on fire?
But no, this fla looks extrely faint, not the usual orange-red, but a pale blue, and as the fla rose, Chu Keqing standing by the bed couldn’t feel any heat from the fla!
This fire... is actually cool?
What shocked her even more was that as the pale blue fla rose, slowly burning on Luo ifang’s forehead, Luo ifang’s skin, flesh, and hair were completely unscathed!
Moreover, under Chu Keqing’s Qi Observation Skill, she saw that the remaining life force at the top of Luo ifang’s head, which was still trickling away just a mont ago, started...
