Chapter 128 Formerly an Old Friend
Yuanzhi City.
Prefectural office.
The group of them gathered around Ye Ruoyi and looked at each other. Lei Wujie grabbed Tang Lian\'s shoulder and said anxiously, "Da-shixiong, didn\'t you go to Tang Clan together? Didn\'t you say that your shifu has a way to cure her? How did her condition become so serious?"
Tang Lian shook his head, avoiding the topic. "It\'s a long story. Let\'s think of a way to cure Miss Ye first. Xiao Se, is your Penglai Pill effective?"
"Ineffective." Xiao Se frowned and answered succinctly.
"Ineffective?" Lei Wujie was shocked. "Why is it ineffective?"
"The Penglai Pill can help her live for a while more. But her heart meridian has been damaged to this degree, it can longer be saved by medical skills. The reason why she could survive up till now, is because there is a dose of qi that is sustaining her life.” Xiao Se reached out to measure Ye Ruoyi\'s pulse, and his expression was slightly startled. "This dose of qi…"
"What about it?" Tang Lian asked.
"It\'s like a ray of light on an ice sheet, as if it\'s a measure of warmth amid a frigid cold," Xiao Se said after thinking for a while.
Lei Wujie said anxiously, "Xiao Se, when things are so dire, how can you still have the mind to make a metaphor!"
"You know that person too," Tang Lian said.
"Who?" Xiao Se was taken aback.
"Wuxin, the monk," Tang Lian replied slowly.
Xiao Se and Lei Wujie were both surprised, and exchanged a glance. "He\'s back?"
"Yes, and his martial arts are even more powerful than before. If I didn\'t guess wrong, he should have at least entered the Unfettered Heavenly Realm," Tang Lian said.
Lei Wujie, who had just entered the Unrestrained Earthly Realm, was frustrated and asked, "Then why didn\'t he follow you here? If he is here, he can save Miss Ye again!"
Tang Lian thought of the swordsman wearing the black cloak, and he was slightly worried. "We encountered a strange swordsman. He was wearing a black cloak and hat, and holding an abnormally large sword. Wuxin temporarily delayed him, and that’s how I could escape first with Ye Ruoyi."
Xiao Se\'s expression twitched, and a dark and cold look flashed in his eyes. "It\'s him!"
Everyone was startled by his tone, and Sikong Qianluo asked first, "Xiao Se, do you know him?"
"I don\'t know him." Xiao Se paused, and said something unrelated to what he just said. "But I will definitely kill him." After he finished speaking, he turned around and leaned down to look at Ye Ruoyi. He sighed softly.
Lei Wujie came back to his senses. "Xiao Se, why are you sighing? Hurry up and think of a solution."
Xiao Se suddenly stretched out a hand to Lei Wujie. "Hold my hand."
"Huh?" Lei Wujie was taken aback.
Sikong Qianluo reacted first, and she hurriedly stepped forward. "Xiao Se, you want to use the Circulation Array again? You will die!"
"No, I won’t. This time, I’m borrowing Lei Wujie\'s qi. Lei Wujie practices the Sword Heart Tomb Sword Heart Formula. I will use the Sword Heart to make up for the inadequate heart meridian!" Xiao Se grasped Lei Wujie\'s hand and his other hand rested gently on Ye Ruoyi\'s chest.
"Xiao Se, watch where you put your hand!" Lei Wujie and Sikong Qianluo exclaimed at the same time.
"Shut up." Xiao Se\'s expression changed, and both of them were silent immediately. Lei Wujie only felt that the qi in his body seemed to surge in an instant, and began flowing towards Xiao Se\'s palm, Xiao Se\'s face flushed, and his whole person seemed to swell in an instant. He learned from the untitled book given to him by the Confucian Sword Immortal that this Circulation Array could allow the internal strength within the body to be channeled without touching the latent meridians. At this moment, he wanted to use Lei Wujie’s Sword Heart Formula to suppress Ye Ruoyi’s injury. Wuxin also used similar martial arts in the past when he healed Lei Wujie’s injuries by the Violet Marquis along that river.
Ye Ruoyi, who had been sleeping with her eyes closed, suddenly moaned lowly.
"It’s working! It’s working!" Lei Wujie exclaimed in surprise.
Xiao Se\'s face, on the other hand, looked as pale as the dead. He looked at Ye Ruoyi, his hands trembling slightly.
Tang Lian thought to himself in shock, not good. Looking at Xiao Se\'s appearance, he probably couldn’t withstand the qi from Lei Wujie’s Sword Heart Formula himself. If this continues, sooner or later, his meridians will snap and he will die.
Xiao Se gritted his teeth, and he suddenly pushed Lei Wujie away with a palm. He lifted his left hand abruptly, and the dark red qi in his hand suddenly condensed into the appearance of a long sword. Xiao Se raised the sword energy high, pressed it down again, and inserted the entire sword into Ye Ruoyi\'s chest.
Ye Ruoyi opened her eyes abruptly, cried out loud, and shocked everyone around her. Her chest was shining red, and there was tremendous pain in her eyes.
"Xiao Se, why is it like this?" Lei Wujie asked in surprise.
Xiao Se gritted his teeth and looked at Ye Ruoyi. "I know this is painful, but if it’s you, you will be fine!"
Ye Ruoyi\'s eyes slowly calmed down, and the red light in her chest gradually dimmed. She looked at Xiao Se, and her eyes revealed an expression like a reunion after a long time. “I could never find the chance to say this to you. It\'s been a long time."
Xiao Se nodded, walked over, and gently pushed Ye Ruoyi. Ye Ruoyi fell backward, lay onto the bed, and closed her eyes.
"What\'s wrong?" Lei Wujie hurriedly stepped forward.
"Nothing’s wrong. She just fell asleep," Xiao Se replied.
"What was that move you just did? It\'s so amazing! So now Miss Ye’s illness is cured?" Lei Wujie looked at Xiao Se.
Xiao Se shook his head. "Not even the Director of Astrology from the Directorate of Astronomy can cure her illness, how could I cure it? I’ve just temporarily suppressed her injury."
"Xiao Se." Sikong Qianluo couldn\'t help but finally asked the question that had been bothering her. "Do you and Miss Ye know each other from before?"
Xiao Se walked out slowly, without speaking.
"You seem to know her illness very well, and if I heard it right, she said." Sikong Qianluo hesitated for a while, but she still continued, "It’s been a long time?"
Lei Wujie also reacted, looking at Xiao Se in confusion.
Only Tang Lian’s expression was ambiguous and he looked at Xiao Se meaningfully.
"Yes, we have known each other since childhood," Xiao Se said softly and looked up at the sky.
Ten years ago, Heavenly Revelations City, the General’s Residence. That was their first meeting. A handsome youth dressed in white was wandering about the General’s Residence when he met the little girl in a wheelchair. The girl’s pupils were blank. She sat in the courtyard and looked into the distance, humming unknown nursery rhymes softly. The youth stopped in his steps when he spotted the girl. He slowly walked up to her and reached out his hand. "Come, stand up."
The girl raised her head and looked at the youth. The youth\'s eyes were clear and bright.
"I know this will be very painful, but if it’s you, you will be fine!" The youth said to her with a warm and kind smile.
The girl\'s blank pupils suddenly began to shine from that moment. She held the youth\'s hand at that moment and began her new life.
That year, Xiao Se was nine years old and Ye Ruoyi was seven years old.
