"Ai, Miss..." Auntie He, although calling Ling Xuejiu ’Miss,’ actually regarded her as her own daughter in her heart. Seeing her slight temper, Auntie He couldn’t help but say, ’This child, really is...’ Sighing, she followed her out.
"Cough, cough!" Uncle Liu coughed awkwardly twice and said, "Miss Xiao Jie, shall we go out too?"
"Mm, okay!" Li ngjie responded, but didn’t imdiately leave. Instead, she asked curiously like a baby, "I wonder, Cold Bodyguard, why do you want everyone to leave?"
Leng Xuan said, "Because I need to take off the Old Master’s clothes. If you don’t mind..." Before he could finish, Li ngjie stuck out her tongue and quickly turned and ran out.
Leng Xuan gave a bitter smile. The real reason he wanted everyone to leave, of course, was not that. He didn’t want to reveal his other identity!
After the door closed, only Leng Xuan and the unconscious Old Master Ling, lying in a coma, were left in the room. Leng Xuan examined the Old Master’s face and saw it was slightly distorted, as if he had been in great pain before losing consciousness. Feeling slightly alard, he straightened the Old Master and summoned a gentle stream of True Qi, slowly pressing it against the Old Master’s back. After so investigation, he discovered that the Old Master’s condition was indeed terrible. His internal ridians were completely disrupted and tangled, circulation of qi and blood was blocked, and his organs were in a state of shock, resulting in irregular breathing. It was very dangerous indeed.
While examining the Old Master’s condition, Leng Xuan pondered the cause of these symptoms. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, recalling sothing Uncle Da Zhang had once said: "In cultivation, one must never be impatient for quick success, otherwise there is a great risk of ’deviation.’ Once one deviates, the ridians in the body will beco disordered, the True Qi will flow backward, and at the lightest, the body will be paralyzed; at the worst, both body and spirit will be destroyed. Moreover, what’s even more terrifying is that, once soone’s ntality is deviated, they will beco unrecognizable, indiscriminately murderous, if you also reach this day, don’t bla for being ruthless..."
Reflecting on these words, Leng Xuan couldn’t help but draw a cold breath, because he was almost certain that Old Master Ling’s symptoms bore a striking resemblance to those of ’deviation’...
After a long while, Leng Xuan seed to have made a significant decision. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Alright then, since things have co to this, I can’t care about damaging my own True Yuan anymore." Having said that, he took off the Old Master’s shirt, positioned his body properly, sat down in a ditation pose, took off his shoes and socks, climbed onto the bed, and sat behind the Old Master. After taking a deep breath, he expelled his True Qi, and two red flas appeared in the palms of his hands. He slowly pressed his hands against the Old Master’s back, continuously forcing his hard-earned True Qi into the Old Master’s body...
Ti silently slipped away, and unbeknownst to them, the night had grown deep.
Outside in the living room, Ling Xuejiu didn’t know how many tis she had knocked on the door, but there was always no response from the room, making her both anxious and annoyed. She took out her frustration on Li ngjie and Uncle Liu, scolding them for trusting Leng Xuan too much. She said that if Leng Xuan delayed Grandfather’s ergency treatnt, who would be responsible for the consequences? This made both Li ngjie and Uncle Liu hang their heads low in regret. After all, Leng Xuan had been inside for several hours now without so much as a word; if sothing did happen, the consequences were indeed unimaginable.
