As the Universe Turns - Chapter 314
Chapter 314 Cold Cavitation Erosion
“Wei Yang …”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s heart was struggling incomparably. She reached out and gently caressed Hua Weiyang’s icy cheeks. The scenes that appeared in her mind were the 10,000-mile journey that she had accompanied her in Immortal North Ancient Realm.
From Celestial Pogoda to Tianshan Su Wen Gong, he went to Yan Mountain to search for Fire Lingzhi. He searched for immortal medicines for himself and suppressed the life and death backlash in his body. In the end, he went to the Heavenly Spirit Sect in order to obtain the evergreen seeds of flowers and leaves for himself …
But now, there was nothing he could do for her.
“Wei Yang … I’m sorry.”
Xiao Chen’s voice gradually choked. He reached out and stroked her face, “I will definitely think of a way to save you. No matter where I go, I will definitely find a way to save you even if I search the ends of the earth. Even if I sacrifice my life.”
At the end of his sentence, he slowly stood up. You Chang was stunned. It took him a while to react and immediately threw his fist at him. “Bastard! What are you talking about! Aren’t you going to save her?”
You Chang’s expression was excited, but he was hugged tightly by You Qin behind him. His eyes were bloodshot, “Bastard! The princess did it for you … you actually didn’t save her … You Qin, let go of me, I must teach this bastard a lesson today!”
“You Chang! Shut up!”
Madam Xian Shu stood up and glared at You Chang. After she was quiet, she looked at Xiao Chen and sighed softly, “Go, your friend is seriously injured.”
“Sorry … madam.”
Xiao Chen’s voice was a little low, and he looked at Hua Weiyang for the last time. He looked out of the cave with his red eyes.
‘”Bastard! Come back here! Do you know who the princess is?” You saw him leave like this. “Do you know who the princess is? She was injured because of you, a mortal brat. She ignored danger and used her spiritual power at all costs. You’re not going to save her now, bastard! Come back here!”
“Alright! Stop arguing!” You Qin pulled him tightly, otherwise he might really rush out.
“Let go of me! Didn’t you see that bastard? He clearly has the medicine in his hand, but he didn’t save the princess …”
“Then can you beat him? Go! Why aren’t you going?”
You Qin finally let go of him, but You Chang felt as if he had let go of his anger. He sat down on the ground and clenched his fingers tightly, “Bastard, no matter how capable you are, something happened to the Duke. I will kill you even if I risk my life …”
Madam Xian Shu quietly looked out of the cave. Just now, she knew that the person who suffered the most was not You Chang or You Qin, but Xiao Yichen. She wanted him to make such a difficult decision.
On the other side of the cave, Huisi’s face was pale and she sat with her back against the stone wall. Shen Jing was helping him recover from his injuries, but without the Nine Flowers Jade Dew, it was impossible to recover his damaged heart meridians.
“Miss Shen, thank you so much. You have expended too much effort on me these past two days. There is no need to continue now …”
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Chen appeared at the entrance of the cave at some unknown time. Hui Si saw him enter. Although he was seriously injured and his life was in an instant, he was still as carefree as before. He smiled and said, “Yichen, you’re here. Miss Wei Yang, is she … better?”
“How are you now?”
Xiao Chen walked in, but Guisi shook his head and smiled, “It’s fine … But at this moment, if only there was wine, otherwise wouldn’t it be disappointing tonight’s moonlight … Cough, cough …”
“When you’re well, I’ll have a drink with you then.”
Xiao Chen smiled. As he spoke, he walked towards Shen Jing. Shen Jing looked at him and remained silent. She knew how painful this decision was for him.
After a while, Xiao Chen silently stuffed the bottle of Nine Flowers Jade Dew into her hand. Then, he turned around and walked out without saying a word.
“Xiao Chen …”
Shen Jing couldn’t help but be stunned. Originally, she thought that Xiao Chen had already swallowed the Nine Flowers Jade Dew to Hua Weiyang, but she didn’t expect …
Guisi also saw the jade bottle he handed to Shen Jing. His expression changed slightly. He wanted to get up, but his injuries were too severe to get up. He reached out and said, “Yi Chen! Xiao Yi Chen!”
Xiao Chen did not stop, nor did he say anything. He continued to head out of the cave.
The cold wind blew outside, and the bright moon was in the sky. The valley was completely silent. He came to a cliff alone, and his heart felt as if thousands of needles had pierced through him. Strength, strength, everything was due to lack of strength!
If he was strong enough, how could he not find the culprit who slaughtered hundreds of people in Ning Village? If he was strong enough, how could he not protect Wei Yang? If he was strong enough, how could Guisi be injured? Everything was due to his strength …
“Bang!”
He punched the stone wall, and it immediately split open a few cracks. Strength, strength!
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
One punch at a time, continuously hitting the cliff until his eyes were bloodshot. After an unknown amount of time, footsteps slowly sounded behind him.
Turning around, Shen Jing had arrived in front of him at some unknown time. Xiao Chen lowered his head and looked to the side, “Is Si Que feeling better?”
“Mm …”
Shen Jing slowly walked over and gently raised her hand. Looking at the blood stains on it, she said softly, “Your hand is bleeding. What are you doing …”
“I’m fine.”
Xiao Chen let go of her hand and looked at the distant mountain range that was shrouded in the darkness of the night. He asked, “You are now proficient in medicine. Wei Yang, what happened to her? The cold energy in her body …”
“I…”
Shen Jing seemed to want to say something but hesitated. She shook her head and said, “I don’t know either. I’ve already made Guisi consume the Nine Flowers Jade Dew. As for Hua Weiyang … I can only take a look for her tomorrow. Let’s go back first.”
“Alright …”
By the morning of the next day, Guisi had gradually recovered from his injuries after consuming the Nine Flowers Jade Dew last night. However, Hua Weiyang still hadn’t woken up, and the coldness in his body was also volatile. Xiao Chen stayed by her side and watched over the whole night. Occasionally, he would hear her talking in a dream and leaning against her body, but he couldn’t hear what she was saying.
Madam Xian Shu walked in from outside and said, “We have to leave this place. After a night, I’m worried that the people from the Heavenly Gate might catch up.”
“Yes.”
Xiao Chen nodded. He couldn’t stay in any place for too long, or else it would be easy to find him. Everyone immediately set off again, heading towards the depths of the Dongjie Mountains. There were a hundred thousand mountains with endless mountain ranges. The mountain peaks were much safer than the edges.
When twilight fell, everyone finally arrived at the depths of the Dongjie Mountains. They looked into the distance and saw that the mountain peaks stretched out without end. Madam Xian Shu immediately controlled the clouds and stones to descend.
After arriving at a valley and settling everyone down, the cold energy in Hua Weiyang’s body erupted again. This time, it was even more powerful than last night. Under the corrosion of the cold energy, even the flowers and grass at the entrance of the cave condensed into a layer of ice.
“Cold … so cold …”
Hua Weiyang’s consciousness was blurry, just like when he was on Mount Kunlun. Xiao Chen was about to pour pure Yang Qi into her body, but Madam Xian Shu held his hand and said, “Don’t act recklessly.”
“But …”
Seeing Xiao Chen’s painful appearance, Hua Weiyang could only look outside the cave. “Where is Shen Jing? Call her over quickly.”
The two female disciples of Lianhua Palace immediately went to the other side of the cave. Not long after, Shen Jing hurriedly walked in and observed Hua Weiyang’s pulse for a while. Then, she frowned and said, “I want to give her acupuncture to suppress the cold. You guys should leave first.”
This time, even if she did everything she could, she still wanted to see what was going on with Hua Weiyang.
