Chapter 1069 - 1069 Gratitude
The Yi family was really ruthless. Not only had they crippled Yi Fenyun’s cultivation, but they had also destroyed his dantian, broken his meridians, and severely injured him. His internal and external injuries were very serious. If not for Yi Fenyun’s strong survival instincts, he would have died long ago.
“You don’t have to waste your energy. I know how serious my injuries are. They can’t be treated at all. I’ve already lost my cultivation. My meridians and dantian are all destroyed. Even if I live, I’ll be a cripple. It’s just…” Yi Fenyun saw Xue Fanxin frown when she treated him, and his heart was filled with bitterness.
How could he not know his injuries?
It was impossible to treat such injuries, so his life was over.
“Although your injuries are a little serious, it doesn’t mean that you can’t be saved. Your body is too weak, and I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the pain of repairing your meridians and dantian. If I repair your meridians and dantian directly now, you’ll die of pain. Therefore, I plan to let you recuperate for a while first.
“When your body’s condition is good, I’ll begin to repair your meridians and dantian. Furthermore, the plague poison in your body hasn’t been completely removed. Those internal and external injuries also need treatment and recuperation,” Xue Fanxin said as she started to treat him. She directly used the power of the Wood Spirit Heavenly Pearl to treat Yi Fenyun’s internal and external injuries. As for the rest, she could only leave it for now.
Even a Heaven-rank alchemist would be helpless against such an injury. However, she was different. The combination of the Yin Yang Nine Needles Art and the Wood Spirit Heavenly Pearl could indeed repair the meridians and dantian, so she was absolutely confident in treating Yi Fenyun.
Yi Fenyun was a little shocked and asked with a hint of hope, “Can my meridians and dantian really be healed?”
All internal and external injuries were secondary. The most important things were the meridians and dantian.
Only when his meridians and dantian were healed could he cultivate again and have the ability to take revenge.
“Don’t worry. To me, this is a small matter, but the premise is that you have to cooperate well. You have to nurse your body back to health first. After your internal and external injuries have healed, you can begin to repair your meridians and dantian. For now you can live here in peace. There’s no need to be reserved or polite. As you can see, the plague poison in the Imperial City is rampant. Countless commoners are being persecuted by the plague poison, so I’ve been a little busy recently. If there’s anything I can’t take care of, please forgive me.”
“You’ve already taken very good care of me. I know that many people are waiting for you to treat them outside. Your time is very tight, but can you give me some time? I want to know something.”
“What do you want to know?” Xue Fanxin sat down and was willing to spend some time chatting with Yi Fenyun.
“About the peach blossom pastry.” Yi Fenyun knew that Xue Fanxin was pressed for time, so he did not waste his breath and went straight to the point. “You mentioned the peach blossom pastry to me twice. Why is that?”
Xue Fanxin smiled. “Since you remember the peach blossom pastries from the peach blossom granny’s stall in Willow Alley on the East Street of the Nanling Empire’s Imperial City, why don’t you remember that little girl back then?”
“That little girl back then?”
“That’s right! The little girl who was mocked and bullied back then.”
“Little girl.” Yi Fenyun tried his best to recall what had happened back then. He indeed had some impression, but it was not deep, because that matter was not important to him.
Thinking about it carefully, five or six years ago, in the Nanling Empire, he had indeed met a little girl by the Peach Blossom Granny’s stall and even bought her a peach blossom pastry.
However, he had long forgotten about this.
Could it be…
“I’m that little girl from back then. Have a good rest first. I’ll go do my work.” Xue Fanxin did not say much to Yi Fenyun anymore and let him be alone to think, so she got up and left.
Her feelings toward Yi Fenyun were only a little girl’s gratitude. Her so-called liking was the type one felt toward an older brother.
