Everyone fell silent. They knew that fortune did not favor this child, but had not expected her to be so unlucky.

Qi Chengyu took the news badly. She swayed slightly and tried her best not to cry. She was the one who had guided Xuan Tong in her practice and she knew better than anyone else the hard work Xuan Tong had put in. She treated Xuan Tong almost like her only disciple, but now...

Lonemoon felt equally sad. He turned to look at Shen Ying, who still stood where she was, deep in thought. Then he instructed Chu Xuan, “Take Xuan Tong back to the palace wing.”

Chu Xuan carried Xuan Tong and headed back to Invincible Sect with the rest of the disciples.

“Yu Hong!” Lonemoon glanced at Chu Xuan, who was now helping to treat Xuan Tong’s injuries and pulled Yu Hong over. “Go to the capital and ask the richest man in the city, Shu Jiang, to come over. I seem to recall that he’s a famous immortal physician. Perhaps he can help us.”

“Yes, Elder!” answered Yu Hong, preparing to leave.

“Wait!” Lonemoon added as an idea came to him, “If you can’t find him, look for Xun Shu at the Palace of War Cessation. He’s now a state emperor and should be of some use. Tell him this is Shen Ying’s instruction!”

“I understand!” Yu Hong nodded and flew off on her sword.

One month later.

Chu Xuan had the highest cultivation level among all the immortals here. With his help, her condition gradually stabilized and her injuries started to heal. Her pallor slowly returned to normal.

Although Chu Xuan was a celestial emperor, his skill lay in setting up arrays, not in the art of healing. Lan Hua was a jack of all trades but he was still a Fiendish Cultivator and his presence near her might even worsen her condition. So during the next few days, he stayed obediently with Radish at the back of the mountain.

Possibly due the severity of her injuries, Xuan Tong did not awake from her coma. Later, Yu Hong brought Shu Jiang to take a look at her injuries. His prognosis was the same as Chu Xuan. However, after a few days of treatment, Xuan Tong started to show signs of awakening.

Finally, after a month, Xuan Tong opened her eyes.

“Little Tong!” Qi Chengyu, who had been nursing Xuan Tong for a month, rushed over and looked her over. Then she asked anxiously, “How are you feeling?”

Xuan Tong looked dazed. She opened her mouth as if to speak but no words came out. She looked fearful and lost.

Qi Chengyu quickly comforted her, “You were badly wounded, you need time to recuperate! It’s normal to if you can’t speak temporarily.”

Xuan Tong shook her head, as if anxious to say something.

“Don’t worry!” Chengyu patted her head and said slowly, “With our sect master, the elders and the emperors around, you’ll be all right.”

Xuan Tong subconsciously turned her head when she heard this,

“Hey, Little Shortie!” greeted Shen Ying with a wave of her hand.

Xuan Tong got a start and almost fell out of bed in surprise. Luckily, Chengyu caught hold of her in time.

“Don’t be excited. Little Ying came specially to see you, ” Chengyu told her laughingly. Being a member of Shen Ying’s fan club, she could naturally understand Xuan Tong’s feelings. Moreover, she had been in seclusion for a long time to prepare for her immortal ascension. Too bad that...

“This immortal needs to have a quiet rest, everyone please... ” Shu Jiang indicated for her visitors to leave.

Lonemoon looked at Chengyu and nodded. Then they led the rest of the visitors out of the room.

“Have a good rest!” Shen Ying looked at Xuan Tong, who had shrunk behind her bed covers. Turning round, she followed Father Niu out of the room. As she passed by the window, she slid the her fingers along the window edge. Her fingers came back coated with layer of ash. After pausing for a moment, she stepped out of the room.

Everyone had now returned to the front palace. Shu Jiang wiped the sweat off his brows and saluted everyone respectfully. “Although Fellow Immortal Xuan Tong has awakened, her primordial spirit and foundation are unlikely to be restored. I’m afraid... I can’t do anything more for her.”

“You mean even with the Spirit Convening Lamp can’t heal her?” asked Lonemoon anxiously. He had thought that the lamp could mend an immortal’s primordial spirit.

“This...” Shu Jiang paused and said regretfully, “Fellow Immortal Xuan Tong’s injuries were caused by the Wildfire, they were made worse by the clash between her Spirit Root and the fire element. The Spirit Convening Lamp can mend her primordial spirit but if the fiery qi in her body is not expelled, her injuries will not heal fully. The Spirit Convening can treat the symptoms but not the cause. It will just cause her more suffering.”

Lonemoon frowned. Now he was certain that Xuan Tong was no longer the female lead. Female leads would never be caught in such a miserable situation.

“Is there... really no other way?” No matter what, Xuan Tong was part of his sect, and as a nanny.... correction, as an elder he had a duty towards her.

Shu Jiang looked at Chu Xuan before answering hesitantly, “There... is a way!”

“What is it?”

“Has Young Emperor ever heard of the Luo Han stone?”

“...” What’s that?

“Luo Han Stone!” exclaimed Chu Xuan. “Are you talking about the stone belonging to Emperor Xin Han of Yi Shui continent?”

“That’s right!” Shu Jiang nodded his head. “It’s Emperor Xin Han’s divine artifact.” Since He Chuan’s emperor was here, perhaps they could borrow it from him. “It’s said that this stone is the coldest thing in the world, it can freeze the sea instantly. As it can counteract Fellow Immortal Xuan Tong’s fiery qi, we can use it to expel this qi from her body and then slowly restore her foundation.”

“Emperor Xin Han...” Lonemoon frowned. It seemed they were back to dealing with this asshole Xin Han. That fox demon had stolen the Spirit Convening Lamp to save him. Now they had to borrow the Luo Han Stone from him. How the tides have reversed!

“Thank you Exalted Immortal Shu.” Lonemoon saluted Shu Jiang.

“You’re welcome, Young Emperor.” Shu Jiang hurriedly returned the salute. After thinking a while, he added, “By the way, it is advisable not to move Fellow Immortal Xuan Tong. It’s best that you bring the stone back here. Time is short. If her fiery qi is not removed soon, it will be very difficult to restore her foundation.”

“Right, we’ll take note,” replied Lonemoon with a nod.

After leaving a few more instructions, Shu Jiang went back to check on Xuan Tong.

“Looks like we have to make a trip to see Xin Han. There’s no time to lose. Shen Ying, let’s go... Shen Ying? Shen Ying!” Lonemoon gave Shen Ying, who was still holding on to her fruit, a shake.

“Huh?” Startled, Shen Ying, dropped her fruit.

Yi Qing quickly passed her another fruit.

“What’s wrong with you?” Lonemoon looked at her in puzzlement. She had even forgotten to chew her fruit, this was a first! “Ever since Xuan Tong’s Heavenly Tribulation, you don’t seem to be yourself.”

“Master?” Yi Qing looked at Shen Ying with concern. “Your food intake seems to have decreased by about... one percent!”

“...” Do you need to be so accurate?

-_-|||

Lonemoon’s eyes widened as a thought came to him, “Have you... discovered some other problem?”

“Not exactly...” replied Shen Ying, cocking her head. After a while, she straightened up and looked earnestly at the two men. “Chef, Father Niu. Do you think...”

“Wait!” Lonemoon gestured for her to stop. “Don’t tell us now!”

“Huh?” Why?

Lonemoon replied gravely, “Every time you get serious, I will feel a BUFF epiphany coming on. We still need to rush to Yi Shui continent! Wait until I’m more prepared!”

Yi Qing: “...”

Chu Xuan: “...”

Shen Ying: “...” Son of a b*tch!
