Xia Zeyuan felt a pang of heartache. His daughter was his own little cotton-padded jacket, and all the more because Xia Zeyuan had only this one daughter, whom he always held dear to his heart.
"The young miss indeed has an unusual relationship with Ye Ming, but that Ye Ming doesn’t seem to care too much about her. Instead, it’s Xia Ningning’s close friend whose relationship with Ye Ming is a bit more intimate."
"Moreover... When the young miss was injured, she was taken into the bathroom by Ye Ming... When she ca out, she was only wrapped in a bath towel."
A protector hesitated for a long ti but still reported what he had seen, after all, Xia Zeyuan was the head of the household, and they did not dare to hide anything from him.
As for so more excessive details, they dared not describe them.
Even so, this news was enough to make Xia Zeyuan’s blood surge with waves of heartache.
"Bastard! He’s unclear with other won, and now he’s seducing Ningning..."
Xia Zeyuan wished he could go straight to Yanjing and confront Ye Ming in person.
But then he sighed deeply and said, "Never mind, now I have more important things to do. Let that kid jump around for a couple more days!"
"Arrange it imdiately for , mobilize all of the Xia Family’s intelligence group to track down the real mastermind behind the assassination attempt on the young miss!"
The two protectors answered in unison, then slowly retreated.
...
Not far from the Council Hall, in a dark little room, Xia Qunxiong smashed the cup before him and cursed fiercely, "Trash, you’re just trash! I’ve nurtured you for so long, yet you can’t even kill a woman. What use are you to ?"
A man in black knelt not far from him.
The man in black said with trepidation, "Mr. Xia, it was absolutely impossible. At that ti, I had already stabbed my knife into Xia Ningning’s heart, and moreover, my dagger was poisoned. Xia Ningning couldn’t possibly survive!"
Xia Qunxiong gasped with rage, "Then are you saying I’m blind? Who’s that person chatting with the old man in the backyard right now? A ghost?"
"I..." The man in black was at a loss for words, also greatly shocked.
Had he not seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought it was a ghost.
He clearly rembered that his knife had pierced through Xia Ningning’s body, so how could she be alive and kicking now?
Thinking of this, the man in black suddenly thought of sothing and explained, "At that ti, the only people present besides Ye Ming and those two protectors, there was no one else. I’ve heard Ye Ming used to be a doctor; the only possibility is... he saved Xia Ningning!"
Smack!
Another cup shattered, and Xia Qunxiong shouted angrily, "Ye Ming, it’s always that Ye Ming. He has the nerve!"
"Not only did he kill my son, but now he ruins my plans too, he deserves to die!"
"If I can’t take his life with my own hands, I would have lived in vain!"
...
Elsewhere, after a series of challenges, Ye Ming finally brought Xu Lele to Wanhua Valley.
For Xu Lele, it was her first ti at such a place, and she seed very curious.
The scenery inside Wanhua Valley was beautiful and very different from the mundane world; even just recuperating in this environnt could bring about a greatly improved mood.
They hadn’t walked far when Zhang Lingfeng ca out, accompanied by two Wanhua Valley disciples to greet Ye Ming.
Ye Ming was now a distinguished guest of Wanhua Valley, as he had helped Wanhua Valley reorganize its affairs, which restored the valley’s prestige in the martial world.
Therefore, upon seeing Ye Ming, the two Wanhua Valley disciples treated him with great respect.
Zhang Lingfeng said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, you’ve arrived. Miss Lin, she has already..."
He had only spoken a few words when Zhang Lingfeng caught sight of Xu Lele beside Ye Ming and quickly stopped.
Ye Ming smiled faintly, knowing what Zhang Lingfeng ant, and said casually, "Old Predecessor, it’s alright. Just speak your mind."
On the way here, Ye Ming had already done his howork and had inford Xu Lele about what had happened. However, to keep Xu Lele from worrying, he rely said they ran into a thunderstorm during training, which attracted the lightning.
Zhang Lingfeng glanced at Ye Ming and then at Xu Lele, his expression sowhat peculiar, admiration filling his eyes.
He said, "Mr. Ye, please follow !"
After Zhang Lingfeng took over Wanhua Valley, he quickly revived its vitality.
Lin ngdie was placed in the Alchemy Room, where she was fed a large amount of Elixirs every day to sustain her life.
Zhang Lingfeng said on the side, "It’s embarrassing to say, but the Elixirs of Wanhua Valley can only keep Miss Lin alive for now. As for her injuries, there’s simply no way to heal them."
Since Lin ngdie was still in a deep coma and her bodily functions couldn’t compare to those of a normal person, even a large dosage of Elixirs from Wanhua Valley could only keep her clinging to life by a breath.
Ye Ming arrived in front of Lin ngdie and, seeing her still bearing the appearance of being burnt, felt a pang of guilt in his heart.
"Miss Lin, now that I’m here, I will definitely cure you."
Afterward, Ye Ming undressed her and placed her in a bath, subrging her in the Spirit Spring Water.
At the sa ti, Ye Ming channeled his Inner True Qi into her, repairing the damaged ridians within Lin ngdie’s body.
After inspecting with True Qi, Ye Ming’s heart ached because Lin ngdie’s ridians were all severed, and he couldn’t find a single intact one.
Coupled with the severe external damage to her flesh, her entire body had to endure intense pain, like being cast into hell.
The only silver lining was that Lin ngdie’s consciousness was in a deep coma, so she couldn’t feel any of the pain.
Ye Ming closed his eyes, carefully using his True Qi to help Lin ngdie repair her ridians while the Spirit Spring Water restored the external injuries.
As ti ticked away, Xu Lele, not wanting to disturb him, began to stroll around Wanhua Valley by herself.
After a whole day of effort, Ye Ming had repaired most of the ridians inside Lin ngdie’s body. The effect wasn’t ideal, but her external wounds were gradually healing.
The damaged skin had crusted over, peeled off, and regenerated, even better than that of a child.
She lay naked before Ye Ming, her eyes tightly shut, resembling a sleeping beauty.
On the third day, Lin ngdie’s body had largely recovered, and her vital signs gradually returned to normal. However, she remained in a deep coma.
Ye Ming lifted Lin ngdie’s body out, carefully placed her on the bed, and dressed her.
Xu Lele looked on with envy, desiring such perfect skin for herself, though the price to be paid seed rather steep.
"Ye Ming, why hasn’t she woken up yet?"
After everything was settled, Zhang Lingfeng curiously stood beside Ye Ming and asked.
Ye Ming sighed, looking sowhat helpless, and said, "Her consciousness is still in a self-protective state. Waking up will require so ntal stimulation."
Having settled Lin ngdie, Ye Ming said to Zhang Lingfeng, "Old Predecessor, actually, there is another matter for which I have co to ask a favor."
