Chapter 143: Rescue
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The mirror vanished, along with the invisible black fog shrouding the two
prerectures.
But the influence of the black fog didn’t disappear immediately.
Along the way, Zhou Shu saw countless people lying on the ground. These
people had yet to walke up, and it was uncertain whether they would wake up in
he future.
Zhou Shu only hoped that when the mirror affected their consciousness, it also
affected their bodies.
Otherwise, with the effects of the Mirror of Retribution disappearing, after a
few days without food and water, their bodies wouldn’t be able to take it.
But he couldn’t be bothered with this right now. He was not the Guanyin
Bodhisattva who saved the suffering
To put it bluntly, what did the life and death of these people have to do with
him?
If he wanted to save anyone, he had to Save those related to him first.
Zhou Shu dashed like lightning and arrived beside Yin Wuyou in no time.
Yin Wuyou was quietly leaning there, looking incredibly weak.
Zhou Shu’s heart ached, and he cursed Xiao Shunzhi again.
He walked to Yin Wuyou’s side, carefully helped her up, and reached out to feel
under her nose.
Her breathing was extremely weak, and it was even intermittent.
Although she was a third-rank martial artist, Xiao Shunzhi wasa first-rank
martial artist. Even though he was injured, Yin Wuyou was not his match.
The fact that she was still alive was because Xiao Shunzhi couldn’t be bothered
Looking at Yin Wuyou’s state, Zhou Shu felt helpless.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary corporate slave. At most, he could
perform artificial respiration, but he knew nothing about other first aid
methods.
In his life, he had never learned how to heal people.
Right now, he didn’t dare to move Yin Wuyou’s body. If her internal organs
were injured, moving her would cause massive bleeding.
What should I do? Zhou Shu was a little anxious. If he returned to the capital to
get reinforcements now, it would be too late.
But if he didn’t call for help, would he watch helplessly as Yin Wuyou died from
her injuries?
Right, the Breakthrough Pill Zhou Shu suddenly remembered that he still had
such a pill with him.
There should have been a battle when the You Prefecture Army and Bing
Prefecture Army entered both prefectures. At the time, the Legendary
Amament Canon had given him some benefits.
Back then, he had received quite a few Breakthrough Pills.
The Breakthrough Pill was not a healing pill, but it could defy all conditions
and directly allow martial artists below the first rank to break through a rank.
The advancement of a martial artist was a kind of transformation to the body,
and it could even be understood as an evolution.
This process was not just about increasing one’s spiritual essence. One’s body
would also improve accordingly.
If Yin Wuyou’s Martial Dao cultivation could increase by a rank, then the
changes brought by the increase in cultivation might be able to heal her
injuries.
Even if it couldn’t, the vitality of a second-rank martial artist was definitely
stronger than a third-rank martial artist’s.
Without much hesitation, Zhou Shu directly took out a Breakthrough Pill and
placed it in Yin Wuyou’s mouth.
The Breakthrough Pill melted the moment it entered her mouth. Yin Wuyou
groaned lightly, and some color appeared on her face.
The spiritual essence within her body fluctuated slightly. Shortly after, the
vital qi of heaven and earth in the air started to condense and then poured into
Yin Wuyou’s body.
A pained expression appeared on Yin Wuyou’s face.
Zhou Shu felt his heart ache. He tightened his grip on her shoulders. “Don’t be
afraid. You’ll be fine soon.”
The vital qi of heaven and earth was constantly being drawn over. More than
half of You Prefecture seemed to have become a vacuum of heaven and earth
vital q
If someone looked down from above, they would definitely be able to see a
tornado-like vortex.
The amount of heaven and earth vital qi required to break through from the
third rank of the Martial Dao to the second rank was immense. Such an
enormous amount of heaven and earth vital qi was attracted by the effect of
the Breakthrough Pill and poured into Yin Wuyou’s body, surging into her
meridians and body.
Even though the Breakthrough Pill had no side effects, the process of breaking
through was unavoidable. Under the impact of the heaven and earth vital qi,
Yin Wuyou constantly vomited blood.
Zhou Shu’s heart was in turmoil. He didn’t know if he had made the right
choice.
With Yin Wuyou’s current physical condition, breaking through might not be
the best right now.
Her body might not be able to withstand the impact of the breakthrough, or
she might die before she could break through.
Zhou Shu was anxious, but he had no other choice.
“God, all deities, Amitabha, Hallelujah, please bless her,” Zhou Shu kept
mumbling.
An unknown amount of time passed. To Zhou Shu, it felt like a century had
passed.
Yin Wuyou finally stopped vomiting blood. Her aura gradually calmed down,
and her body also gradually returned to normal.
Zhou Shu finally relaxed.
From the looks of it, Yin Wuyou must have passed through the most difficult
moment and successfully broke through!
Even if she cait recover from her injuries, the life force of a second-rank
martial artist should be able to save her life.
Zhou Shu tore off a corner of his clothes and carefully wiped the blood off Yin
Wuyou’s face. Then he put her down carefully before looking at Sun Gongping.
Divine Constable Sun, irs not that I’m disloyal, but I really have no other
choice. Whether you can survive or not depends on your luck
Zhou Shu came to Sun Gongping’s side. Sun Gongping’s aura was even weaker
than Yin Wuyou’s.
His injuries might not be as serious as Yin Wuyou’s, but his cultivation was far
inferior to Yin Wuyou’s, so his vitality was naturally much weaker.
The reason he was still alive was that he had consumed a large number of
natural treasures since he was a child, so his foundation was extremely solid.
Zhou Shu didn’t delay. He took out another Breakthrough Pill and stuffed it
into Sun Gongping’s mouth.
Sun Gongping was a seventh-rank martial artist. Now that he had taken a
Breakthrough Pill, he would advance to a sixth-rank martial artist and be
considereda middle-grade master.
Actually, it was a bit of a waste to take the Breakthrough Pill at his cultivation
level.
Not just him, it was also a waste for Yin Wuyou to take it at her level.
The Breakthrough Pill was able to defy all conditions and directly allow martial
artists below the first rank to break through a rank.
In other words, if one took the Breakthrough Pill when they were a
second-rank martial artist, they could directly become a first-rank martial
artist!
At that time, consuming the Breakthrough Pill would be the most worthwhile.
After all, breaking through from a second-rank martial artist to a first-rank
martial artist was ten times or even a hundred times more difficult than
breaking through froma ninth-rank martial artist to a second-rank martial
artist combined.
Those who could cultivate to the second rank of the Martial Dao were elites
among elites. Even so, only one in ten thousand could break through to the
first rank from the second rank.
A Breakthrough Pill could allow many second-rank martial artists to directly
cross this difficult step.
If others knew that Zhou Shu had used a pill just like that, they would
definitely call it a waste.
Zhou shu naturally knew when it was most worthwhile to take the
Breakthrough Pil, but he didn’t care at all.
Let alone the fact that he had plenty of Breakthrough Pills, even if he only had
two in his hands, he wouldn’t hesitate at all at this time.
To him, Yin Wuyou’s and Sun Gongping’s lives were more important than
anything else.
Sun Gongping’s breakthrough didn’t cause as much commotion. After all, he
had only broken through from the seventh rank to the sixth rank.
He only spat out a few mouthfuls of blood before breaking through.
Throughout the entire process, he didn’t wake up either.
After he broke through, Zhou Shu checked his breathing. Although it didn’t
become much stronger, it didn’t become weaker either.
It looked like he should be able to hold on for a while longer.
After all, the Breakthrough Pill was only a way to treat the symptoms and not
the root of the problem.
Zhou Shu took out the sound transmission stone Yang Hong had left for him.
This was standard equipment for divine constables to communicate with other
nearby divine constables.
Although the distance of contact was only a few dozen miles, it could
sometimes have a great effect.
He injected a wisp of spiritual essence into the sound transmission stone and
shouted at it, “Is anyone there? I am Zhou Shu from the Forging Division. Her
Highness and the young marquis are by my side. The crisis in You Prefecture
has been resolved. I need help!”
“This is the Divine Constable Bureau’s silver-badge divine constable Zhao
Mingran. I will come over at once!”
“This is the Divine Constable Bureau’s bronze-badge divine constable Xu Rui. I
will come over at once!
A tew voices came from the sound transmission stone. Zhou Shu let out a sigh
of relief.
Two hours later, a carriage galloped out of You Prefecture, heading toward
Chang an.
Not long after the carriage left You Prefecture, a purple-robed figure
descended from the sky and landed in front of the carriage.
Zhou Shu frowned and involuntarily gripped the hilt of the Great Destroyer
Sword.
The next moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealinga somewhat
familiar handsome tace.
Yin Changhao:
Zhou Shu let go of the sword hilt.
Yin Changhao didn’t look at Zhou Shu but at Yin Wuyou lying in the carriage.
He frowned, and anger flashed across his face.
“Move aside!” He casually pushed Zhou Shu aside.
Zhou Shu’s eyebrows twitched, but he didn’t flare up when he saw Yin
Changhao’s actions.
Yin Changhao carefully carried Yin Wuyou horizontally, then the cloud beneath
his feet rose as he flew out of the carriage.
Throughout the entire process, his movements were extremely light, lest he
would startle Yin Wuyou.
Zhou Shu knew Yin Changhao’s identity, so he wasn’t worried that Yin
Changhao would harm Yín Wuyou.
And right now, flying should be much faster than traveling via a carriage.
Yin Changhao turmed around and said to Zhou Shu, “Tl leave first. Send Sun
Gongping to the imperial hospital”
Then he transformed into a purple light and flew into the sky.
So what if you can fly?” Zhou Shu bitterly cursed as he let go of the worry in
his heart.
There should be no lack of famous doctors in Great Xía. After returning to
Chang’an, Yin Wuyou’s injuries should be fine.
“Nephew, look at the difference. Someone is picking her up. What about you?”
Zhou Shu glanced at Sun Gongping, who was left in the carriage.
Sun Gongping’s injuries were also very severe. The Breakthrough Pill had
increased his cultivation level and temporarily saved his life, but it had not
healed his injuries.
If he wasn’t treated in time, his life would still be in danger.
“Thank God and me, your uncle.”
He drove the carriage. He didn’t know how to fly. Althoughhe wasn’t slow
when running, Sun Gongping wouldn’t be able to withstand such torture, so he
could only rely on the carriage.
Chang’an
Yin Changhao landed directly in the palace.
As soon as he landed, he shouted, “Summon the imperial physicians”
Emperor Yuan Feng had already heard the commotion and flew over. When he
saw Yin Wuyou in Yin Changhao’s arms, anger flashed across his face.
“How is Wuyou?” Emperor Yuan Feng asked in a deep voice.
In his life, he had several sons but only one daughter. He had always treated
her like a precious treasure and never let her suffer any grievances
He didn’t expect her to be seriously injured when she only left the capital for
such a short period of time.
Damn it!
No matter who iniured her I wilIl kill binm! No matter the cost!
“I can’t say for sure. Let’s wait for the imperial physicians to see her first,” Yin
Changnao answered in a low voice.
Although Yin Wuyou had her own princess residence, she still had her owm
bedroom in the imperial palace of Great Xia.
Yin Changhao placed Yin Wuyou on her bed. At this time, the imperial
physicians had already rushed into the palace.
Amoment later, one of the imperial physicians arrived before Emperor Yuan
Feng and Yin Changhao.
“Your Majesty.” The imperial physician was about to bow.
There’s no need for formalities. Just say it directly,” Emperor Yuan Feng said
in a deep voice.
“Her Highness must have been injured by an expert. Her intermal organs are all
ruptured, and her life is hanging by a thread,” the imperial physician hurriedly
said.
“What” Emperor Yuan Feng’s body erupted with a powerful aura, his entire
being becoming abnormaly terrifying.
“Your Majesty, please calm down.”
Although the imperial physician was also a ranked martial artist, under the
powerful aura of a first-rank martial artist, he felt as if he couldn’t breathe
properly. He hurriedly said, “However, Her Highness must have consumed
some elixir which raised her cultivation by a rank. Although the breakthrough
of her cultivation worsened Her Highness’ injuries, it aso increased her
vitality..”
The imperial physician explaineda lot, but Emperor Yuan Feng didn’t quite
understand. “Just tell me directly what Wuyou’s current condition is!”
The imperial physician bowed. “Her Highness is severely injured, but her life is
not in danger. She is a second-rank martial artist and has a powerful recovery
ability. Even if she doesn’t receive treatment, after three to five months, her
intemal injuries will be completely healed.”
“Then why is she still unconscious” Emperor Yuan Feng frowned.
“Her Highness was severely injured after all, and her cultivation should have
just broken through. It’s strange. Judging from her injuries, she should have
been injured a few days ago. Her Highness should have been unconscious at
the time. I don’t know why, but her cultivation seems to have broken through
less than a day ago. Otherwise, with her second-rank Martial Dao cultivation,
she should have woken up already”
The imperial physician had a thoughtful expression on his face. If Zhou Shu
was present, he would definitely address him as Divine Physician.
Although the imperial physician didn’t see it with his own eyes, his speculation
was not far from the truth.
The imperial physician pondered. “There’s another possibility. Someone gave
Her Highness a medicinal pill.
Emperor Yuan and Yin Changhao looked at each other.
“Brother, does Wuyou have any medicinal pills that can increase cultivation?
Yin Changhao asked solemnly.
Great Xia naturally had medicinal pills that could increase one’s cultivation
base. However, they were all medicines that would cause endless trouble in the
future. For Yin Wuyou to consume this kind of medicinal pill while being
heavily injured was practically suicide. How could she possibly break through?
Emperor Yuan Feng shook his head. With Yin Wuyou’s talent, as long as she
went alongwith the flow, there was a high chance that she could advance to
the first rank of the Martial Dao. Why would Emperor Yuan Feng give her a
medicinal pill that would cause endless trouble in the future?
The two looked at each other and saw the meaning in each others eyes. “Who
saved Wuyou?
Yin Changhao pondered. “When I saw her, she was on her way back to the
capital. The one escorting her should be that workshop superintendent. Oh,
and the young son of the Marquis Weiyuan is also seriously injured.”
“Zhou Shu?” Emperor Yuan said. “It seems that only he knows what happened.”
