With that, Bai Ying didn't linger there any longer, but walked directly into the Lingxiao Sect.
The grand spectacle came to an end, and everyone departed.
Master Mu also slunk away, his initial grand ambitions completely gone.
Only the Fourth Elder remained standing there, still unable to accept the fact that he was about to leave this world.
However, he could also clearly feel his body weakening.
At his level of cultivation, he was able to examine the condition of his own body.
But he just refused to believe it.
After returning, those people sent the Fourth Elder back to his residence, allowing him to rest and recuperate there.
But they all knew that the Fourth Elder was beyond saving, so why would he need any rest?
Even the servants in the Fourth Elder's room were talking about these things behind his back.
"If only we had Bai Ying treat the Fourth Elder from the beginning. Now look what happened."
"It's because the Fourth Elder himself believed in that Master Mu. Bai Ying was even going to treat him, but he refused."
"Besides, Bai Ying had already told him not to take the pills given by Master Mu, but he wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened, he's about to lose his life."
Although the Fourth Elder had lost his power, his soul was still that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and his ability to perceive the outside world was exceptionally strong.
He could hear every word the two servants said clearly.
"Bastards! You bastards!"
The Fourth Elder dragged himself up to the two men with difficulty and began to hurl insults at them.
He instinctively wanted to kill them with a single blow, but now he couldn't even lift his hand.
The two servants, seeing this, ran outside in fear.
The Fourth Elder felt immense pain as he watched himself unable to kill even a servant with such low cultivation.
His condition is worse than before. He can clearly feel his spiritual energy draining away faster and faster, to the point that his body can no longer bear it.
They had to say those things to provoke him.
Can Bai Ying cure his illness?
"Nonsense!"
He didn't believe it. If Bai Ying could really cure his illness, she would have already treated him during that perfect opportunity.
"Bai Ying doesn't know anything at all."
Even if Master Mu can't cure it, so what?
"From now on, if anyone gets the same disease as me, they will die just like me!"
The Fourth Elder glared fiercely at everything before him, wishing the whole world would be destroyed and everyone else could get the same disease as him!
Thinking that the Fourth Elder had also called someone over and asked him to go out and spread the word that Bai Ying herself could not cure this disease.
"Go out and tell everyone that even if Master Mu can't cure that illness, it doesn't mean Bai Ying can. Bai Ying won't cure it either."
The man hesitated upon hearing the Fourth Elder's words. "But what good will it do us to say this?"
"Don't worry about it, just go and say it. Just say that Bai Ying's healing of Wu Hansong was all an act she put on with him! It was all fake!"
The Fourth Elder began to become increasingly obsessive.
He only hoped that Bai Ying wouldn't cure this disease; otherwise, he would be the only one to die from it, and he wouldn't be able to accept that.
The man had no choice but to comply with the Fourth Elder's wishes and have people spread the word everywhere.
Whenever someone suggested that Bai Ying might be able to cure the disease, he would have people constantly refute them.
At this moment, besides the Fourth Elder, there was another person exerting their power.
That person was Ruan Xinrou.
She had expected to see Master Mu slap Bai Ying hard across the face, but she never imagined that Master Mu would be so useless.
She immediately instructed the system to find a way to ruin Bai Ying's reputation.
Ruan Xinrou was more afraid than the Fourth Elder that Bai Ying could actually cure this disease.
After all, if she could cure it, wouldn't she gain an exceptionally powerful force?
After all, her patients are all cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage!
Just thinking about it terrified Ruan Xinrou.
These two people are ruining Bai Ying's reputation everywhere.
During that time, quite a few people did believe what they said.
These people are saying things like, "Even if Master Mu can't cure it, Bai Ying is just as capable of treating it."
The Fourth Elder listened to these people's remarks with a sense of smug satisfaction, feeling extremely pleased with himself.
After hearing it so many times, he himself began to believe it was true.
"Yes, that's right. Bai Ying doesn't know how to treat patients at all. She's a fraud! She can't do anything."
He felt even better after hearing so many people criticize Bai Ying.
But to his surprise, just two days later, he heard another piece of news.
A Nascent Soul cultivator he knew named Fang Jingyu also contracted this disease.
The Fourth Elder was somewhat pleased and lit up the communication talisman to contact him.
"Do you have this disease too?"
He was morbidly happy that someone shared his suffering.
Upon hearing Fang Jingyu's voice on the other end of the communication talisman, he said, "Yes. I never thought I would get this disease."
The Fourth Elder truly felt this was wonderful; he wouldn't be alone on his journey to the underworld.
He wanted to say something insincere to comfort the other person, but to his surprise, the person said, "However, I went to the Lingxiao Sect to find Bai Ying, and she has agreed to help me with the treatment."
The Fourth Elder was completely stunned.
Looking for Bai Ying?
He instantly became furious and shouted into the communication talisman, "What kind of illness can Bai Ying cure? All her previous treatments of Wu Hansong were lies! How could you believe her?"
"But even if I don't look for her, I can't just wait to die. Besides, I really believe that Bai Ying can cure this kind of illness."
"I'm telling you, don't be fooled by her!"
The Fourth Elder was eager to prove that finding Bai Ying was completely useless.
But at that moment, Bai Ying's voice suddenly rang out.
"Who says I can't treat this disease? I'll treat him tomorrow. If you don't believe me, you can come and see for yourself! I can prove it to you."
It was clear that Bai Ying and Fang Jingyu were together. After saying this, the communication talisman was extinguished.
The Fourth Elder stared intently at the communication talisman, his fingers clenched into a fist.
He's going crazy.
Even though Bai Ying asked him to go see her, he kept emphasizing, "Bai Ying can't cure diseases. Even if Fang Jingyu goes to her for treatment, she will definitely kill him. In the end, Fang Jingyu will die just like me."
After saying this, he also asked the people standing next to him to say the same thing.
The people around him comforted him, saying, "Bai Ying definitely wouldn't. She's so young. How could she possibly have an illness that even Master Mu couldn't cure?"
But when the Fourth Elder heard these words again, he felt no relief at all; instead, he was filled with anxiety.
He suddenly felt a sense of fear. What if Bai Ying really could cure that disease? What should he do then?
