So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 55

Fortunately, they quickly retracted their eyes and looked back at the operating room.

Li Xianyu looked at them carefully. The beautiful glasses lady was Mo Fei, the file manager. Because she was always active in the chat, Li Xianyu paid special attention to her. He saw Mo Fei’s photos in the album, so he recognized her at a glance.

People were more beautiful in-person. In recent years, when people took photos, especially women, they tended to subconsciously add a layer of beauty filters to themselves. Make-up and Photoshop instances were even more excessive, resulting in the phenomenon of collective collision and face blindness of women. This was the first time that Li Xianyu saw such a splendid lady.

Then, there was the neat, short-haired beauty. If he was right, she was the Thunderbolt Battle Lady. She was one of the few colleagues in the group who brought warmth to Li Xianyu.

Her title fitted nicely with her image. Her hair was short. She looked different from the gentle facial features of Asian women. Her facial features were very defined. She had a mixed taste and a special charisma. Her figure was unlike most Asian women, who had flat breasts and buttocks. She was like a healthy leopard, beautiful and curvaceous.

Li Xianyu silently compared Mo Fei with Thunderbolt Battle Lady in his heart. Each of them had their own demeanors and appearances; it was difficult to decide who was better outright. That would seem superficial.

He never had a chance to meet such high quality women before. As a matter of fact, there were plenty of beautiful women in the demon descendants community.

I like the demon descendants community again.

Then, his eyes fixated on the small loli. Her face had not been photoshopped in her pictures. Tongtong was most probably the most lovely and beautiful young girl he had ever seen in reality, with a delicate and slender figure.

She looked as if she was only about eight years old. Presently, she was tiptoeing against the glass window, trying to look into the operating room.

Li Xianyu didn’t pay too much attention to the loli. After a few glances, he looked away.

As for the last guy who looked like Lightning King’s son, Li Xianyu did not even pay attention to him. He was nearly two meters tall, strong and bearlike, but without any beauty.

Finally, he looked into the operating room and witnessed the operation for the first time. It was a bloody yet intriguing process.

The man lying on the bed had his abdomen cut open, as the head surgeon and his deputies concentrated on the operation. The patient’s head was pricked with silver needles. The needle inserter was probably Li Shizhen.

“King, what’s wrong with him?” Li Xianyu asked in a low voice.

“You know.” The Lightning King sighed. “Li Bai, who was injured during his mission the other day.”

“Fuck, did he really get into an accident?” Li Xianyu widened his eyes and asked.

If you looked into the records of the chat a few days ago, you could still find the scene of his accident.

The Lightning King nodded with a heavy expression. “So far, I don’t know what happened to him. A colleague from the Chang’an Branch found him lifeless in front of the company gates. He was resuscitated immediately. However, the medical expertise there was limited. He was sent back to the headquarters that same day. He has been lying there until now. The operation has been going on for one day and one night. At present, his chances of survival are uncertain.”

Mo Fei said, “A medicine known as ‘Real Man for Five Seconds’ was detected in his blood. I speculate that Li Bai had averted the disaster through this medicine, but this medicine has strong aftereffects. Coupled with his injuries flaring up, the situation is not optimistic.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady said, “His whole body was crushed and fractured. His solar plexus was destroyed, the heart was almost cut in two, the body’s meridians were broken, and a copper bead was embedded in the skull as well. If it hadn’t been for his ancient demon descendant genes, he would have died long ago.”

The burly young man shook his head and looked decadent.

The crowd looked grave and heavy-faced.

When the door of the operating room opened, the head of the medical department, Hua Tuo, emerged. He was dressed in surgical clothes covered with blood, as he murmured, “His life has been saved for the time being, but I dare not say that he’s out of danger. He will need to receive round the clock care for an extended period of time. The four of us will take turns to take care of him.”

Hua Tuo was wearing surgical clothes and a mask. His face could not be seen clearly, but he was also an old man based on the tone of his voice.

The four divine doctors of Baoze Group were actually all old men. There was not even one middle-aged man. The novels depicting young doctors were all lies after all.

Despite having prepared himself mentally, the Lightning King sighed and closed his eyes.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady and Mo Fei lowered their heads slightly.

The loli choked and said, “Uncle Li Bai is so pitiful, you must get better…”

Beep, beep, beep…

The ECG, which had shown signs of life, suddenly reflected a few straight lines.

Everyone’s face changed drastically. Thunderbolt Battle Lady turned pale as she reached out and covered her mouth. However, it was too late.

“Hua Tuo, he’s dying. Think of something,” Bian Que yelled across the operating room.

Tongtong struggled to get Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s hands off her mouth as she cried out. She hiccupped as she wailed, “I didn’t mean to. I couldn’t control myself. I really miss Uncle Li Bai.”

Lightning King, Thunderbolt Battle Lady, Mo Fei and the burly young man planted their hands on the loli’s face.

Tongtong whined and struggled to break free by shaking her head. They let go of their hands and made a solemn silent gesture to her. The loli’s eyes were full of tears. Her eyes looked left and right. She dared not make any sound, as she appeared pitiful.

Li Xianyu was utterly confused. He had many questions, but looking at everyone’s serious expressions, he resisted curiosity and kept quiet.

After a few minutes, Hua Tuo came out again and shook his head in dismay. “It was just a few seconds, but the wound suddenly opened up massively. He has internal bleeding in literally every organ. He was hanging on for his life then, but it’s hopeless now. Prepare to issue his obituary in the chat.”

Tongtong cried out again as her tears and mucus flowed out freely. She clutched her skirt tightly with her hands.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady and the rest felt unbelievably sorrowful.

Baoze Group had not been established for a long time. Because the big boss did not come to the company very often, many affairs were solved and decided by the employees themselves. As a result, the relationship between the demon descendants were good; they were all tightly bonded and had a sense of belonging.

Even King Kong, who Li Xianyu had suspected to be Lightning King’s son and often fought with Li Bai, teared up.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady said with red eyes, “Is there really no other way? Should we contact the big boss and ask him to think of something?”

Mo Fei shook her head. “Even Hua Tuo can’t think of anything. What can the big boss do? Don’t think of the big boss as someone who can do anything.”

Lightning King opened his mouth and sighed, “King Kong, ask all the colleagues in the company to come over to see Li Bai for the last time.”

He patted Tongtong’s head again and said, “Wait for your punishment.”

“Did he… die?”

Amidst the solemn atmosphere, Li Xianyu suddenly interrupted from the corner of the room. No one was in the mood to entertain him.

Hua Tuo replied, “The heart stopped beating and we have made various attempts… He’s not far from brain death.”

My power was the Resurrection of Life. It can enhance cell activity, so that the body instantly returns to its peak condition. However, if someone was dead, the ability would be completely useless.

Li Xianyu hesitated for a moment and added, “If he’s not dead, would you like me to try and revive him?”
