“How could I abandon my woman and run away alone?” Zuan said in a deep voice.
Looking at the pale face of the beauty in his arms, with bloodstains on her clothes, he couldn't help but feel a surge of pity. He hurriedly took out some healing medicine from his pocket and fed it to her: "Take the medicine quickly. Although these are not as miraculous as the previous bottle of medicine, they are all elixirs made by Physician Ji and will be of great benefit to the recovery of your injuries."
Many of the medicines were given to him by Ji Xiaoxi. He figured that Ji Dengtu wouldn't be shortchanging his daughter on the amount of medicine he had prepared.
"No need, my vital energy is completely destroyed, these medicines won't save me." Chu Chuyan shook her head, her voice extremely calm and indifferent, without a trace of life.
"Who says she can't be saved? There's always a way! We'll go find Doctor Ji then, he'll definitely be able to save her!" Without waiting for a reply, Zu An stuffed the best pills into her mouth. Although Ji Dengtu was a bit lecherous, his medical skills were truly unparalleled. And even if he couldn't cure her, the cultivation world was vast and boundless, there must be someone who could.
Even if we take a step back and say he still has the "keyboard warrior system" cheat code, who knows, maybe he can extract something from it in the future that can cure her.
"Cough cough~" Chu Chuyan had never been treated so roughly before. She felt both ashamed and anxious, but unfortunately, she was too weak to move, let alone resist.
"It seems you and Ji Xiaoxi are really close." Chu Chuyan noticed that the purse he used to hold the medicine bottles was embroidered with flowers and had a faint fragrance, clearly made by a woman.
“I’ve already told you that your husband is very popular with women,” Zuan joked subconsciously, but thinking that she probably couldn’t take it in her current state, he quickly added, “Before, when we encountered a zombie army in the valley, when I went to distract the pursuers, she was worried and gave me these medicines.”
Chu Chuyan said calmly, "Why are you explaining so much to me?"
Zu An chuckled sheepishly, "Aren't you afraid I'll get jealous?"
Chu Chuyan fell silent, clearly having lost interest in speaking further.
At this moment, Shi Kun and the others walked over. His face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water: "Miss Chu, I have to admire you. You actually have such a killing move that can destroy even the Devouring Kun. However, this will completely cripple you. Is it worth it?"
He went to great lengths to win her heart, regarding Chu Chuyan as the perfect wife candidate. But now she's crippled, and his family would never agree to him marrying such a useless person.
With her stunning beauty, she could have been a plaything or a concubine even if she were crippled, but given her current injuries, her chances of survival are extremely slim.
Having painstakingly planned and schemed for years, only to suffer such heavy losses in the secret realm, all he gained was nothing. How could he not be disappointed, how could he not be angry?
Qiao Xueying's expression was extremely complicated. Although she entered the Chu family with a mission, she had spent so many years with Chu Chuyan. Although they were nominally mistress and servant, they were actually sisters. She sincerely hoped that Chu Chuyan could marry her young master.
In her opinion, only the sixth young master of the Shi family was the perfect candidate for Miss, and that guy surnamed Zu was not good enough for Miss in any way.
But now things have come to this point. Chu Chuyan is so resolute that she would rather die than live in dishonor. She felt lost and helpless. She felt that she also bore a great responsibility for pushing her mistress to this point, and she was extremely remorseful.
Upon hearing Shi Kun's question, Chu Chuyan gazed indifferently at the sky, showing no interest in answering.
Only Zuan noticed that her pupils were unfocused, indicating that she wasn't really looking at the sky and was probably truly heartbroken.
At this moment, Chu Chuyan's body temperature was frighteningly low. Zu An held her as if he were holding a block of ice that had been frozen for thousands of years. The chill emanating from her body was so cold that it went straight to his bones. If he was only holding her like this, then she herself must be feeling incredibly cold.
In the short time that had just passed, Zuan had taken the opportunity to examine the condition of her body. If the vital energy channels in a normal human body are full of vitality, then the condition of her body was like that of a nuclear explosion, broken and filled with destruction and death.
In her current state, let alone starting her cultivation again, she is not even comparable to a normal person. Her meridians are completely destroyed, and she is as if she is paralyzed.
Zuan even suspected that if she hadn't been given "Brother Xin Chun" beforehand, she might have died on the spot after using the forbidden technique.
Seeing that Chu Chuyan did not answer him, Shi Kun was not too angry. He muttered to himself, "You were the number one prodigy in Bright Moon City. Even in the whole world, you were a top-notch person among your peers. You used to be high above and admired by thousands. Now you can only become a cripple. No, you're not even as good as a cripple. Looking at you, you can't even take care of yourself..."
"Shut up! No one will think you're mute if you don't speak!" Zu An was annoyed. At this moment, what he was most worried about was Chu Chuyan's will to live. Based on his previous life's treatment experience, the recovery effect was closely related to the person's own will.
If the patient themselves give up, then there is no hope at all.
"Hmph, a piece of trash like you naturally doesn't understand the troubles of geniuses like us," Shi Kun said coldly, looking at him. "For people like us who have been outstanding since childhood, becoming a cripple means lying in bed for the rest of our lives, receiving the pity and sympathy of the world. It's worse than death. Even if you do your best to save her life, you're just torturing her."
"I don't object to you saying my wife is a genius, but what makes you a genius? You brought so many people and couldn't even beat my wife when she was injured, so you had to call for reinforcements; so what if you're a ninth-rank? You were still defeated by my wife in one move. Can you do that? If you can't, what makes you think you can be compared to her?" Seeing Chu Chuyan's state, Zu An was already feeling bad, and then this guy kept buzzing around like a fly, so he couldn't help but launch into a barrage of insults.
