Chapter 550: The one in power, a life of toil

"This is the end of the first course of treatment. Come again in seven days."

Jiang Rongrong finished saying this.

Ruan Wei fell back completely, collapsed on the couch and gasped for breath.

Jiang Rongrong chuckled: "Do you feel the pain now?"

Ruan Wei nodded weakly.

"Let's see if you dare to be so reckless next time." Jiang Rongrong frowned again, "Take off your robe, I want to see the external injuries."

Ruan Wei shook his head and gestured to refuse.

Cui Yanjun had already checked her out. The external injuries were just lightning strikes, leaving deep and light colors on her skin. She just needed to apply some medicine during this period to prevent any scars from leaving.

It’s okay to leave scars, Ruan Wei can accept it.

Ruan Wei did love beauty, but she wouldn't pursue extreme perfection for her body. She wasn't someone who prioritized appearance over appearance. So what if she had scars? Did scars prevent her from practicing? Since it didn't affect her most important practice, then it didn't matter.

Jiang Rongrong: "...I haven't learned sign language. I've explained the sign language to you. Just speak."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Wei winked at her and made the number three.

Third Uncle-Master told her to talk less and get angry less.

Jiang Rongrong understood inexplicably. She sighed, "It was right to be less talkative just now. Now—"

She smiled, a hint of arrogance flashing across her face.

Jiang Rongrong said, "If I cure you, you will be able to speak."

Very arrogant.

But let’s talk about Jiang Rongrong.

Since practicing Fengchunshu, Jiang Rongrong has never had a patient that she could not cure. She has the confidence to say such words. The young man is full of vigor and ambition, and his bright eyes are full of brilliance.

Ruan Wei stared at Jiang Rongrong for a while before sitting up and speaking softly, "You're a little crazy."

"No way."

Jiang Rongrong looked calm. She put her hands together and said, "See? Since the war began, everyone who has been sent to my tent has survived without exception."

Instead of following Jiang Rongrong's lead, Ruan Wei asked, "How's the battle going? How many casualties have there been?"

"What are you doing?"

Jiang Rongrong glared at her, "I'm warning you, Ruan Wei! I did restore your meridians, but if you want to recover, you'll need to rest for at least half a month! During this time, don't even think about running out and causing trouble!"

Ruan Wei: “…”

What's going on with each and every one of them? It's as if they've become the worms in her stomach.

Ruan Wei had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender, "I don't dare."

It's okay to just wait and see without doing anything.

Jiang Rongrong snorted coldly, "You'd better be!"

Jiang Rongrong had the experience of meeting Ruan Wei many times in the Ten Directions Competition, and she didn't believe Ruan Wei's words at all.

Ruan Wei is a wild monkey that has to be tied up.

He's the type who will run out and get beaten up, injured, and into trouble if you're not careful.

However, Jiang Rongrong finally briefly told Ruan Wei about the current situation on the battlefield.

Jiang Rongrong said, "The battle situation is currently okay. I'm still able to clean up your mess, which means there aren't many casualties. The more troublesome thing is that the seal between the two tribes has been completely broken. Now the demons can't get in, and the spirits can't fight back."

"Sect Master Yue said that these are just minor skirmishes. The truly powerful demons haven't made their move yet, and of course, our powerful ones haven't made their move yet either."

Ruan Wei said, "So, we're still in the stage of testing each other?"

"Yes." Jiang Rongrong nodded, and she said slowly, "But I heard that the demons seem to be making quite a stir these past few days. Maybe... they'll be here soon."

The rest of her sentence was a little unclear.

But Ruan Wei was clear-headed.

The real war is coming.

The fact that is difficult to talk about but must be admitted is that the overall strength of the spirit race is far behind that of the demon race. This situation has lasted for thousands of years and is still the same today.

If the demons launch an all-out attack, the first line of defense of the border city will be nothing but paper.

Especially...Yu Qunqing.

Although this madman is crazy, his strength is worthy of the title of unparalleled in the world.

In the previous life, the spirit race under the leadership of Fu Yi did not truly wipe out the demon race. It was Chi Jin who killed Yu Qunqing, and then Chi Jin was killed by Fu Yi. But these were just two people, not a vast demon army.

The demons are strong, while the spirits are weak.

This is almost a losing game.

But Ruan Wei doesn't like to lose, and neither do the spirits, so they have to fight, to fight for a way to survive.

After a long while, Ruan Wei spoke again: "...Have the other sects sent people?"

"Here they come." Jiang Rongrong raised an eyebrow at Ruan Wei and said, "Do you know who came first? It was Wang Xixing! She's from the Wanjian Sect, but she arrived faster than us in Wangxi Valley."

Ruan Wei said "oh" and thought to himself that this was inevitable.

The backup plan she left behind finally pushed the events to a new level. After Wang Jiyu became the young master, it was impossible for him to leave the Wang family at will. Wang Xixing missed his sister, so he would naturally find ways to return to the border city.

This chess piece is cool!

The two sisters chattered for a while before Jiang Rongrong finished with a lingering smile, "Anyway, everyone's preparing for battle now! Whether we can win or not remains to be seen. With me around, you don't have to worry about getting hurt!"

"My master will soon be out of seclusion. When that happens, the two of us will go directly to the battlefield and rescue the wounded on the spot. No one will be able to die."

Ruan Wei laughed so hard that he started coughing. "Okay, I'll stand right next to you and fight you when the time comes."

"Sure, I promise you won't lose even a hair."

Jiang Rongrong has a raised nose, which makes her look very special.

Ruan Wei's originally anxious mood also eased a little. She looked at Jiang Rongrong quietly for a while and asked, "Are you sure it will be healed in half a month?"

Jiang Rongrong said affirmatively: "It will happen if you don't commit suicide."

She then threatened fiercely, "If you're going to commit suicide, ugh, I'll never save you again!"

"well."

Ruan Wei lay back with his eyes bent, his hands under his head, "Then I'll listen to you this time."

…

The words came out.

Ruan Wei actually stayed in the border town obediently for half a month.

Unexpected.

The demons have been silent for the past half month, so the spirits have taken some time off from their busy schedules to set up various city defense formations.

Chao Jian is the main person in charge of these formations. He is so busy every day that he has no time to check the homework of Ruan Wei and others.

Chi Jin and the others were also arranged by the enthusiastic Yue Hua to various patrol teams. Ruan Wei had nothing to do while recovering from his injury, so he could only stay in the tent to help Jiang Rongrong.

Because of her face, more and more people have recently insisted that they were seriously injured.

As long as Ruan Wei doesn't speak, she looks like the perfect first love, the kind that can charm men, women, young and old.

Seeing that she was too idle, Chao Jian simply removed Lun Zhen from her position of being in charge of meetings and let Ruan Wei hold every meeting. No matter who the next sect leader was, she would be the actual person in charge of Penglai Immortal Sect anyway.

Those who are in power have a hard life.

Ruan Wei is quite suitable for an audience.

Ruan Wei: “…”

Am I your nephew, uncle?
