"Senior Brother, it's not as serious as you say. I was probably just overexerted from participating in a rescue mission on Monday, and I haven't fully adjusted yet. Now that I've overexerted myself again, it has led to this situation. If I take so good rest for a while, my hair will turn back to black," Ge Dongxu reassured.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
During Monday's rescue, Ge Dongxu was so exhausted he fell asleep directly afterward. It's only been three to four days since then, and he has overexerted his mind again, which has led to a slight damage to his vital energy.
However, if one were to dig deeper into the cause, it also had a lot to do with the last ti Ge Dongxu drew two drops of his lifebound essence to make body protection jade amulets for his parents.
If it weren't for extracting those two drops of lifebound essence during the sumr vacation, the two incidents of overexertion would not have caused white hairs to appear, given Ge Dongxu's current level of cultivation.
Of course, Ge Dongxu wouldn't ntion this.
Fortunately, Ge Dongxu already had the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation, and a true qi vortex had ford in his kidneys. Unlike others whose intrinsic vital energy would decrease with each use, he could slowly replenish it through cultivation, including his lifebound essence blood.
So when Ge Dongxu said that he would recover well with so quiet rest and his hair would turn black again, it wasn't just sothing he said to comfort Yang Yinhou.
"Is that really true, Dongxu?" Wu Yili asked with eyes reddened.
"Of course, it's true," Ge Dongxu said with a smile as he nodded.
"Even if it's true, you are the Sect Leader. For your own sake, and for the sake of our Pill Talisman Sect, you must cherish yourself. You are human, not an immortal; human abilities are limited. No matter how capable you are, how skilled you are in dicine, you cannot save everyone. You have a character that is too kind and soft-hearted; you must be more cautious in the future," Yang Yinhou said with a serious face.
Seeing Yang Yinhou's serious expression, and that he had said these words in front of everyone, Ge Dongxu understood his painstaking effort. It was a warning to Tang Yiyuan, Zhu Dongyu, Principal Zhang, and others to avoid seeking him out for every issue they encountered in the future since he was known for his emotional tenderness and was likely to not refuse.
In a sense, Yang Yinhou was intentionally playing the bad guy.
"Senior Brother, I understand that one's strength is ultimately limited. That's why I've already taken up a visiting professorship at the Traditional Chinese dicine Hospital to pass on so dical knowledge," said Ge Dongxu, acknowledging his senior brother's good intentions and nodding earnestly.
"That's very good," Yang Yinhou said, his face finally softening a bit as he nodded, then added with concern, "Your complexion doesn't look good. You should go back to the hotel for so breath regulation and recovery. The environnt is better there."
Ge Dongxu had been interrupted just before and then ca downstairs after hearing everyone's discussions. At that mont, he hadn't fully recovered in body or mind and needed to continue ditating in quiet rest, so he nodded in response, "I'll listen to you, Senior Brother."
Then Ge Dongxu turned to Wu Yili and said, "Teacher Wu, the old lady's condition is sowhat better than I had expected. Now I will prescribe another formula to bolster her vital energy. Let her take it for a month, and while I can't guarantee 100 years, it should be possible for her to be healthy up to 90."
Seeing that Ge Dongxu had previously only ntioned eight to ten more years but was now suggesting that the old lady could live healthily up to 90 years old, indicating another seventeen to eighteen years of life, Wu Yili was surprised and moved, with tears rolling in her eyes.
She knew that Ge Dongxu must have expended a lot of his energy for her sake, especially considering that Ge Dongxu might have shortened his own lifespan because of her grandmother, which filled her with an urge to hold him tight and cry bitterly.

"Thank you, Dongxu!" In the end, Wu Yili just looked at Ge Dongxu deeply and then hurriedly found so paper and a pen to give to him.
Ge Dongxu wrote out a prescription on the paper, then handed it back to Wu Yili and said, "Teacher Wu, I need to go back to the hotel to rest now. After resting for a night, I'll recover. I'll contact you tomorrow."
"Go on, rest well," Wu Yili nodded firmly, her eyes brimming with tears.
Ge Dongxu smiled at Wu Yili, said goodbye to her grandmother, Principal Zhang, Tang Yiyuan, and others, and then got into the Cherokee arranged for him by the Dongyue Province Special Ability Managent Office, accompanied by Yang Yinhou and Zhu Dongyu.
Originally, Ge Dongxu had planned to drive himself, but now that Zhu Dongyu knew Ge Dongxu's status was even more esteed than Yang Yinhou's, and his dical skills were almost immortal-like, National dical Master Zhu Dongyu would not have the heart to let him drive, sitting in the back himself. As soone over seventy years old and a National dical Master, Zhu Dongyu insisted on driving and wouldn't allow Principal Zhang or anyone else to take turns.
Ge Dongxu couldn't persuade him otherwise, and with Yang Yinhou's grand gesture saying, "Dongxu, you don't have to be polite with Dongyu, he is considered half a student of mine anyway," Ge Dongxu just went along with Zhu Dongyu.
Driving the Cherokee and gripping the steering wheel, Zhu Dongyu would occasionally glance at the rear-view mirror. Seeing that Ge Dongxu and Yang Yinhou were not resting with their eyes closed, he mustered the courage and cautiously asked, "Elder Ge, you are holding the title of visiting professor at the Jiangnan Province Traditional Chinese dicine Hospital and imparting dical skills, can I also co to listen?"
At Zhu Dongyu's level, he had basically everything he needed; he no longer practiced dicine for money but rather out of a healer's benevolence and the pursuit of dical knowledge.
Until now, Zhu Dongyu had not found anyone who could still teach him sothing, and he had thought that his dical skills had reached their peak in this lifeti. However, he had not expected to reunite with Yang Yinhou and then discovered that Ge Dongxu's dical skills had reached a realm where they could defy fate itself. Suddenly, Zhu Dongyu's heart, which had been as still as a pond, began to surge with passion.
Had it not been for the crowd just now, and the stern look on Yang Yinhou's face, Zhu Dongyu would probably have already asked for guidance.
"Of course, you can. My original intention was to use one point to radiate to many, to genuinely promote and glorify traditional Chinese dicine. However, there are already plenty of people there, and I don't have enough ti and energy to guide everyone. So, you can co, but don't bring anyone else," Ge Dongxu said.
"Thank you, elder. I understand, I understand," Zhu Dongyu, seeing Ge Dongxu agree, nodded his head excitedly in succession.
Having discussed this matter, Zhu Dongyu did not dare to disturb Ge Dongxu any further and drove quietly all the way, although his emotions were tumultuous.
The car soon arrived at the Mount Santai Golf Hotel.
The afternoon conference had not yet ended, and Zhu Dongyu, not wanting to disturb Ge Dongxu and being a major figure in the conference himself, took his leave and left after dropping Ge Dongxu off.
Yang Yinhou had little interest in the conference and, with the conference's organizer not inviting him, he naturally couldn't be bothered to attend. Thus, he stayed in the villa where Ge Dongxu was, ensuring no one would disturb him.
The day's conference ended in the evening, followed naturally by a dinner gathering.
Zhu Dongyu specially went to the villa where Ge Dongxu was to invite Yang Yinhou and Ge Dongxu to dine.
