Chapter 148 The Fourth Elder Regrets Too Late



Why did this happen?!

The Fourth Elder was completely stunned; he had always thought Bai Ying was a fraud!

He was so confident that he never doubted it.

But why did Bai Ying actually cure Fang Jingyu's illness?

Why is it that she really knows how to cure it?!

At this moment, Wu Hansong also came to the Fourth Elder and said to him with utter contempt, "The time Bai Ying treated me wasn't an act between us; she really knows how to heal. Now do you see clearly? Isn't Bai Ying a fraud?"

Wu Hansong scoffed, "You're always calling others stupid, but let me tell you, the stupidest person is clearly you!"

As he spoke, Wu Hansong pointed to the chain artifact that Bai Ying was holding.

"Speaking of which, I should thank you. My condition was terrible at the time. I desperately needed treatment. I have to thank you for having Bai Ying prepare the tools to treat me in advance. If it weren't for those tools, I might have had to wait two more days, and I might have died while waiting. Don't you think I should thank you?"

Wu Hansong said thank you, but his actions were clearly meant to hurt his feelings.

He told the Fourth Elder that the tools Bai Ying used to treat his illness were originally intended for the Fourth Elder.

In other words, the Fourth Elder's illness could have been cured!

He could have recovered his health like Wu Hansong and Fang Jingyu, but he chose to die instead!

The Fourth Elder's face turned pale and ugly. His mouth trembled violently, opening and closing repeatedly. He subconsciously wanted to refute, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Because he knew perfectly well that every word Wu Hansong said was true...

He was the one who met Bai Ying first!

At that time, Bai Ying was even taken to his residence to be treated!

But how did he do it?

He completely ignored Bai Ying, treating her as a joke.

Even after he found Bai Ying and asked her to cure his illness, he never trusted her.

As soon as Master Mu emerged from seclusion, he sought him out immediately. Bai Ying had long been forgotten by him.

He even went around trying to find people to slander Bai Ying, and even wanted to kill her!

The Fourth Elder's cloudy eyes were filled with tears. He had never felt such regret and pain as he did now!

No one could feel the loss of his life more clearly than him.

He could feel himself getting closer to death every moment.

He was really scared of that feeling.

He really didn't want to die!

Wu Hansong and Fang Jingyu ignored the Fourth Elder, regarding him merely as a clown. Moreover, such a dying man wasn't worth their revenge.

The more this happened, the more the Fourth Elder broke down.

He felt like he was going crazy!

The pain in his heart had already overwhelmed him.

He kept thinking.

If he had let Bai Ying help him cure his illness from the beginning, he could now be like Fang Jingyu and Wu Hansong, recovering the strength of a Nascent Soul stage expert and being respected by everyone.

He made just one wrong step, and the price he paid was so terrible!

The Fourth Elder slumped helplessly in his chair, tears streaming down his face.

He could already imagine what he would face next.

"No!" he shouted.

Bai Ying is still here. If she's willing to help me with the treatment, maybe there's still hope?

The Fourth Elder struggled to stand up; he wanted to plead with Bai Ying.

But at this moment, he was in a state of extreme distress and helplessness. Not to mention standing up with his usual dignified bearing, even simply getting up had become an impossible task.

He used to be a Nascent Soul stage expert who attracted countless admiring glances wherever he went. His reputation was so great that it was known throughout the world.

At this moment, however, he seemed to have lost all dignity and pride, like a wounded and dying beast, only able to crawl on the ground with difficulty using his hands and knees.

His gaze was fixed on Bai Ying, his eyes filled with urgency and madness. His once calm and deep eyes were now bloodshot and red with intense desire.

He crawled desperately toward Bai Ying's location, each inch forward a struggle, as if he were carrying a tremendous burden.

Finally, he crawled up to Bai Ying and then suddenly stretched out his hands, as if grasping at the last straw, and grabbed the hem of her clothes tightly.

His lips trembled incessantly, and a dry, hoarse sound escaped his throat, a sound filled with endless pleading and despair. With all his might, he begged Bai Ying:

"Bai Ying, please, please save me! Please save me. Just name your price, and I'll do anything you ask!"

The Fourth Elders regarded Bai Ying as their only lifeline.

He gripped Bai Ying's trouser leg tightly.

But Bai Ying stepped back, not letting him touch her at all.

"How dare you come to me for help? Do you think I don't know you've been slandering me everywhere? Do you know why I didn't stop you? Because it would have been like giving me free publicity. In fact, I should thank you!"

Bai Ying's words were not only addressed to the Fourth Elder, but also to Ruan Xinrou.

Bai Ying glanced at the Fourth Elder again and said coldly:

"Not to mention, the things you've done are enough to make me look at you coldly."

I told you not to take Master Mu's medicine, but you insisted. Now, even if a great immortal came, not even I could save you!

After saying this, Bai Ying's eyes turned to a certain direction. That direction was directly facing Ruan Xinrou's Qiankun Mirror. She gave it a provocative smile.

Ruan Xinrou was startled, realizing that Bai Ying had always known that she was sabotaging her behind her back.

However, instead of stopping her, she used the momentum she had built to let everyone know that she had the ability to heal experts at the Nascent Soul stage.

From now on, she will receive help from countless Nascent Soul stage experts!

Ruan Xinrou was absolutely furious!

"Bastard! Bastard!" She frantically smashed everything around her to the ground, leaving the entire room in a mess!

The Fourth Elder's eyes completely lost their light; he had no strength left and collapsed to the ground.

He's completely beyond saving.

Death awaited him next!
