Chapter 268: Treatment
Su Yan’s healing technique had no effect, and he was not a doctor. Although he was anxious, there was nothing he could do.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you. You must save her!”
Su Yan gritted his teeth and said.
The gentle woman nodded and then told them to leave. Next, she would concentrate on the treatment. Whether Lin Qingyue lived or died would all depend on what happened next.
Su Yan and the others left the room. He found a seat in the spacious living room, lowered his head, and clenched his fists, his face full of nervousness.
What will happen to my little junior sister next? Will something happen to her? What will I do if something happens? One has to know that it was all for me that she…
The more Su Yan thought, the worse his expression became. The person he cared about was on the verge of death. His heart was burning with anxiety.
Compared to Su Yan’s helplessness, Xiao Wu’s mood was much better. At least she had time to explain the cause of the matter to her mother and master.
“This is what happened…”
Xiao Wu recounted what she had experienced. When they heard the news of her near-death experience, Bai Shuixin and Xiao’s mother were immediately enraged.
To violate the unspoken rules of the immortal sects and the demonic sects, to actually send a Spirit Transformation cultivator to attack a junior, and the target was her own daughter… if she could endure this, she might as well just commit suicide.
“The Joyful Union Sect! It’s the Joyful Union Sect again! Although the demonic sects are hateful, the Joyful Union Sect is especially hateful! Relying on their relationship with the various demonic sects, they have become more and more lawless these years! How dare they make a move on a disciple of our sect!”
Bai Shuixin’s expression was very unpleasant. She was a disciple-doting maniac and treated her disciples as her own daughters. Now her daughter’s life and death were unknown, and it was very likely that she would lose her life. How could she endure this!
“They must pay the price!”
Bai Shuixin said coldly.
Xiao’s mother nodded. At the age of only about twenty, she was already a powerful cultivator at the Body Integration stage. It was a sure thing that Lin Qingyue would become a pillar of the sect. Now that such a thing had happened, she, as the Sect Master, was very angry.
“This matter will not be left like this! I will go and demand an explanation from them! But the most important thing now is, how is that child?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the people present fell silent. The Joyful Union Sect was certainly hateful, but compared to revenge, the safety of their own disciple was more important.
Bai Shuixin wanted to say that she would be safe, but having personally seen Lin Qingyue’s tragic state, she had no confidence at all.
No one spoke. Time passed minute by minute. A few hours later, the gentle woman walked out of the room.
Everyone quickly surrounded her. Su Yan also walked up nervously. He then heard the gentle woman say, “There’s good news and bad news. The good news is that with my efforts, her life has been temporarily saved. She won’t be in any life-threatening danger for the time being. The bad news is that this is all I can do. The physical injuries can be slowly recovered with medicine, but I’m helpless against the damage to her soul. We can only see her own fortune.”
Hearing this, Su Yan’s body trembled violently. Her injuries were not healed. How could this be?
Bai Shuixin said with a puzzled expression, “Qingyue’s injuries are very tricky, but you can handle them. Although the injuries to her soul are serious, it’s not that there’s no way. If we use treasures that can nourish the soul, can it have an effect?”
Su Yan’s eyes lit up when he heard this. However, the gentle woman shook her head and said, “The physical injuries can be healed. It will require a long period of medicinal help. We are not short of medicine. But the injuries to the soul need to be nourished by treasures. But she is not conscious now. Even if she eats the treasures, she can’t absorb much at all. Most of it will be wasted. This will lead to a huge amount of treasures being needed. And the number of soul-type treasures is already scarce. It’s basically impossible to satisfy.”
For a cultivator, the most important thing was the soul. Even if the body was gone, it could be restored through special means. But if the soul was injured, there was no good way.
In the cultivation world, soul-type cultivation methods had always been the most special and precious. This showed its importance.
Hearing the gentle woman’s words, everyone fell silent.
“You should take good care of her. Although the effect is minimal, we can’t miss even a glimmer of hope.”
In the end, it was Xiao’s mother who spoke. She decided to do her best to save Lin Qingyue. This was not only because she was a disciple of the Transcendent Immortal Sect but also because she had saved her daughter’s life.
“Mother, thank you.”
Xiao Wu said gratefully.
Xiao’s mother shook her head and then left.
The gentle woman said that she would come here to take care of Bai Shuixin these few days and would also help. Su Yan and Xiao Wu, on the other hand, entered the room to observe Lin Qingyue’s current condition.
Compared to her weak breath just now, Lin Qingyue’s condition was much better now. At the very least, she no longer had the feeling that she was about to die at any moment, which made the two of them feel very bad.
They were the ones who had been ambushed, but she was the one who was injured. If it weren’t for Lin Qingyue desperately killing the enemy, who knows what would have happened to them now.
“Junior Sister.”
Su Yan looked at Lin Qingyue lying on the bed and couldn’t help but reach out and hold her hand. When they had met before, her aura had been like a rainbow, and her whole person had looked very energetic. How had she become like this now?
Xiao Wu looked at Su Yan holding Lin Qingyue’s hand, her eyes flickering, but she didn’t say anything.
She owed Lin Qingyue a favor, a huge favor. At this time, she couldn’t say anything even if she was uncomfortable.
“It’s all my fault. This is all my fault. If I hadn’t gone out with you, it would have been fine.”
Su Yan said with self-blame.
Although he didn’t know why, the Joyful Union Sect’s target was him. If he hadn’t insisted on going out, they might not have been in danger, and his little junior sister wouldn’t have become like this. This was all his fault.
“It’s not your fault.”
Seeing Su Li’s aptitude, Xiao Wu comforted him in a soft voice, “Their target is you. They have never given up. Although I don’t know why they are so determined, they want to get you. Even if you don’t leave the sect, they will definitely use other means to get you out.”
“But if it were me, my junior sister might be fine.”
Hearing Su Yan’s words, Xiao Wu was speechless.
Su Yan looked at the unconscious Lin Qingyue, his eyes dazed, lost in thought. According to the gentle woman’s words, she was now injured in her soul and had lost consciousness, unable to absorb the medicinal power. What if someone could help her? Perhaps he could…
Xiao Wu was completely unaware of Su Yan’s thoughts. At this moment, a few days had passed since their return. These few days, the Transcendent Immortal Sect had not been idle and had directly gone to find trouble with the Joyful Union Sect.
The Transcendent Immortal Sect wanted to demand an explanation from the Joyful Union Sect, but they completely denied it, saying that it was a groundless matter and that they had never made a move on a disciple of the Transcendent Immortal Sect. This was a complete slander.
Hearing this kind of excuse, the people of the Transcendent Immortal Sect were disgusted. They hadn’t expected them not only to not admit it but also to turn the tables on them. However, disgust was disgust. The Transcendent Immortal Sect found that they really had no evidence and had no way to deal with them.
However, the matter would not be left like this. Cultivators were people who had mastered power. What they sought was a clear mind. Since words could not get through, then let’s fight.
No one had expected that the Transcendent Immortal Sect would actually do this. But they could understand. No matter whose promising disciple was seriously injured, they would definitely be furious. Not to mention that the cause of this matter was so infuriating. It was completely reasonable for the Transcendent Immortal Sect to have this reaction.
And so, the war between the Transcendent Immortal Sect and the Joyful Union Sect began. Without waiting for the low-level disciples to test the waters, they directly sent out their elite to fight. The two sects fought for a long time, and both suffered losses. There were casualties every day.
Su Yan was well aware of what was happening now. As a transmigrator, he liked a peaceful life and did not like to fight and kill. But this time was different.
Lin Qingyue was on the verge of death because of him and had not yet recovered. If it weren’t for the need to take care of her here, he would have wanted to enter the battlefield.
“Don’t be impulsive! They’re just waiting for you to go, so you’ll walk right into their trap.”
Hearing Su Yan say this, Xiao Wu was greatly shocked. Although she didn’t know why, the Joyful Union Sect was willing to fight against the immortal sects to get him. From this, one could see their determination. If Su Yan appeared, they would definitely take him away directly.
“Don’t worry. I was just saying. I won’t let them succeed.”
Su Yan gritted his teeth and said. At this moment, he hated the Joyful Union Sect to the core. Since he did not have the strength to find trouble with them, he could only protect himself well and not let them get their way, to take revenge on them.
“It’s good that you understand.”
Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief. “By the way, how is my junior sister now?”
“The situation is very bad.”
Su Yan shook his head and said, “After these few months of recuperation, her body has basically recovered. But you also know that the trouble is her soul. Because she had used her ability at full capacity, her mental strength was consumed too seriously, so much so that it had damaged her foundation. The situation still has not improved.”
Just as the gentle woman had said, because Lin Qingyue was not conscious, she could not take the initiative to absorb the soul power of the treasures. With just her instinctive healing, it was completely a drop in the bucket. Until now, there had been no improvement.
“I see. I really hope she can wake up soon.”
Xiao Wu sighed. Lin Qingyue had ended up in this state because of them. She sincerely hoped that the other party would be fine. This way, she would feel much better in her heart.
Su Yan glanced at her, opened his mouth, and then stopped. He wanted to say that he might have a way to help his junior sister, but the words were stuck in his throat.
“Forget it. Let’s just wait. Maybe my junior sister has other ways to wake up.”
Although he really wanted to do that, faced with Xiao Wu, he really couldn’t say such a thing.
Seeing Su Yan’s complicated face, Xiao Wu’s eyes flickered, but she didn’t say much.
And so, the days passed one by one. The Transcendent Immortal Sect and the Joyful Union Sect were in a stalemate, and neither could do anything to the other.
Su Yan no longer paid much attention to this matter. He was focused on taking care of his junior sister and hoped that she could get better soon every day.
She had once said that if his junior sister’s will was firm, a miracle might happen. But how long would she have to wait?
Su Yan sighed. But soon, he had to wait. However, it was not hope, but a piece of news that was hard to accept.
