If Gu Qingluan didn’t save him, he would soon succumb.

Gu Qingluan already had a fist-sized Chaos Stone in her possession, but such valuable items were always welcome.

If she could acquire this Chaos Stone, it would be even better.

Gu Qingluan turned to the soldier’s younger brother. “I can save him, but 1 need something from your older brother.”

The younger soldier’s face was smeared with blood and dirt, but what stood out were his clear, black-and-white eyes.

He had only held a glimmer of hope, never expecting that the other party would truly have a solution. He nodded immediately. “As long as you can save my older brother, you can have whatever you want!”

“I have to remind you, what 1 want is the stone on your older brother’s chest. You might not know its value, but your older brother’s survival until now depends on it.”

The younger soldier replied, “If my brother is gone, what use is a stone? This stone is our family’s heirloom, entrusted to my brother by our father. If it can save my brother’s life, I believe neither my brother nor my father would object. Miss Gu, please, save my brother!”

Gu Qingluan noticed the sincerity in his eyes and couldn’t help but admire him.

She had already explained the remarkable properties of the Chaos Stone, yet this person remained unmoved, displaying an unusual mindset.

Anyone with a hint of ulterior motives, upon learning about the extraordinary nature of this stone, would probably wish for its owner’s demise just to claim it for themselves.

Gu Qingluan nodded and took out a spirit pill from her spatial storage, feeding it to the injured soldier.

It was the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill, a sacred-grade elixir that could extend one’s life. With just one pill, as long as there was a breath left, it could bring back half of one’s life. For most people, its value far exceeded the Chaos Stone on the soldier’s chest.

Next, she placed her hand above the injured soldier’s body and activated the Hongmeng Qi within her.

The Hongmeng Qi also possessed rejuvenating properties.

A white halo enveloped the injured soldier’s body, and his injuries were visibly healing at a rapid pace, with new flesh and blood growing.

Under Gu Qingluan’s concealment technique, only those with higher cultivation levels than hers could see what was happening. Others could only see that the bleeding had stopped.

Feng Tianlan looked at her in astonishment.

He could sense that the power and arcane energy she was using were different, a kind of miraculous power.

He felt like he had seen this kind of power somewhere before, but he couldn’t recall where.

Where did she come from?

There seemed to be endless secrets about her. Every time he thought he had figured her out, she would surprise him even more.

Feng Tianlan gazed at her intently.

After a considerable time, Gu Qingluan withdrew her hand.

Using the Hongmeng Qi had consumed too much of her energy, causing her upper body to sway uncontrollably.

Feng Tianlan quickly stepped forward to support her shoulder. “Rest for a moment over there.”

At this moment, Gu Qingluan’s complexion had paled, and her once delicate features carried a hint of fatigue, evoking sympathy.

Seeing her like this, Feng Tianlan couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart. His brows furrowed involuntarily, and his eyes darkened.

“I’m fine,” Gu Qingluan said. She wasn’t accustomed to physical contact with strangers, so she quickly moved away from him.

Feng Tianlan looked at his empty hands, his gaze growing even more somber. “Miss Gu, how is my older brother?” the younger soldier anxiously inquired.

Gu Qingluan replied, “He’s out of danger now. With about half a month of recovery, he’ll be fully healed.”

“Really? He was so severely injured, and he’ll recover in just half a month?” The younger soldier found it hard to believe.

“Yes.”

Half a month was actually a conservative estimate.

The Hongmeng Qi was no ordinary energy; it was the primordial source of energy formed during the primordial chaos before the creation of the world. It possessed incredibly potent regenerative abilities.

In truth, she could have healed the soldier using the Primordial Gold Needle, but it would have taken more time, and the healing effect wouldn’t have been as good as with the Hongmeng Qi. If it weren’t for her interest in the soldier’s Chaos Stone, she wouldn’t have wanted to owe anyone favors or use the Hongmeng Qi.

Although the younger soldier found it hard to believe, he could sense that his older brother’s condition had improved significantly. Previously, his brother had been on the brink of death, but now his breathing was stable, indicating a considerable improvement.

He knelt before Gu Qingluan in excitement, kowtowing in gratitude. “Thank you, Miss Gu, for saving my life! From now on, Jinli will be at your service, willing to do anything for you.”

Gu Qingluan took a step back and teased, “Are you trying to back out of your promise?”
