Zuan was dumbfounded. He originally thought it was just a small problem. After all, in the world of cultivation, spitting blood is nothing.
I don't know how many times I've vomited snow before, but after vomiting and vomiting, I got used to it.
Who would have thought that Chu Chuyan's vomiting of blood would have such serious consequences?
Even a god couldn't save him?
Zuan was momentarily dazed: "How is this possible..."
Just then, a startled cry came from beside me: "Yan'er, what's wrong?"
A fragrant breeze wafted by, and a graceful figure leaped over, shoving Zu An aside and embracing Chu Chuyan. Finding her unconscious and barely breathing, her face pale, she hurriedly turned around and glared at Zu An: "What exactly did you do to my daughter?"
Zuan replied, "She was fine when we were talking just now, but suddenly she vomited blood and fainted. I think it's because she progressed too quickly in cultivating ice-type techniques, causing her foundation to become unstable and resulting in a backlash from the cold energy within her body. Now her life is in danger..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Wanru interrupted him, saying, "What do you know! My daughter is a prodigy of our time, so it's perfectly normal for her cultivation to progress quickly. How could her foundation be unstable? I know you've shown a lot these days, but you're still far inferior to Yan'er. What right do you have to criticize her? You're overestimating yourself!"
As a mother, she gets angry when she hears others say that her daughter's life is in danger, let alone someone she has always looked down on.
Qin Wanru's anger level increased by 502!
After saying that, she picked up her daughter and ran to find her husband. She even regretted talking so much with him, which was a waste of time to save Yan'er.
Anger from Qin Wanru: +9 +9 +9...
Watching Qin Wanru's hurried departure, Zu An thought to himself that this woman had at least one good point: she had plenty of anger points.
Just like the initial assessment of him as the guardian of bottles, everyone has their unique use.
It seems that Qin Wanru's biggest role is to generate anger points.
At that moment, Mi Li's gloating voice rang in her ears again: "How about it, do you want to reconsider my suggestion?"
Zuan: "..."
"Sometimes I really doubt that you are not an empress, but more like a witch, a sorceress."
"Thank you for the compliment!" Mi Li said without a care. "Who says an empress has to be virtuous and kind, a model for the world?"
Zu An thought about it and realized it made sense. There were many wicked empresses in history, and this woman was probably just like that.
Worried about Chu Chuyan's safety, he didn't bother listening to Mi Li's frivolous words and hurriedly followed after her.
Chu Zhongtian had already rushed over upon hearing the news. While channeling his vital energy into Chu Chuyan's body to dispel the cold, he anxiously awaited the arrival of the manor's physician.
Chu Huanzhao also arrived, her small hands clenched tightly. Although she often bickered with her sister because her mother frequently compared her to her older sister, she also knew that her sister cared for her very much, and the two sisters had a very good relationship. Seeing her like this now, it was a pity that her life was already hanging by a thread.
Not long after, a small, white-haired old man hurried over, surrounded by servants. Zu An recognized him; he was Bao Youlu, the resident doctor of the Duke's mansion, who in a sense could be considered the Chu family's family doctor.
Looking across the entire Bright Moon City, his medical skills are second only to Ji Dengtu. With his medical skills, he would not have stayed in one prefecture. It was only because he had received a favor from Lord Bright Moon in his early years, and because he was too old to travel around, that he stayed in the Chu family to repay the favor.
A maid had already prepared a silk handkerchief. Bao Youlu examined Chu Chuyan's pulse through the handkerchief, sometimes frowning, sometimes shaking his head and sighing, making Chu Zhongtian and his wife's hearts rise and fall.
After a long while, he finally released his hand from taking her pulse. Qin Wanru hurriedly asked, "Mr. Bao, how is my daughter?"
Bao Youlu hesitated to speak, and Chu Zhongtian hurriedly dismissed the bystanders. Zu An, being Chu Chuyan's nominal husband, was allowed to stay in the room.
After most of the others had left, Bao Youlu sighed and said, "Master, Madam, Miss's cold has penetrated deep into her meridians and internal organs. There is no cure. Prepare for her funeral as soon as possible."
Chu Zhongtian: "???"
Qin Wanru: "???"
Chu Huanzhao: "???"
Zuan: "..."
Although they thought Chu Chuyan's illness seemed a bit serious this time, they didn't expect it to be this serious. When they first heard this bad news, they were all stunned, just like Zu An before.
Zuan sighed inwardly, not expecting that his judgment was exactly the same as Mi Li's.
"How could this be? My daughter was perfectly fine just now, how could she suddenly..." Qin Wanru choked up as she spoke.
Chu Zhongtian also asked, "Yes, Doctor Bao, is there a mistake? Yan'er just advanced to the next realm, why did something suddenly happen to her?"
Bao Youlu's expression shifted: "Oh, I wonder how you advanced, Miss?"
Since it concerned his daughter's life, Chu Zhongtian dared not hide anything and hurriedly told her about her injury in the secret realm and her taking the Illusionary Lotus.
“So that’s how it is,” Bao Youlu stroked his beard. “I was wondering why Miss, who has always been in good health, would suddenly fall ill with this terrible disease. So that’s where the problem lies.”
“Cultivating ice-type techniques often causes some damage to the body, but under normal circumstances these can be ignored. However, Miss’s Yuan Meridians were completely severed in the secret realm. Although she recovered by chance, her Yuan Qi was already damaged. In this situation, coupled with taking the Traceless Illusion Lotus, she forcibly raised her realm by a major level, which caused her foundation to be unstable. The hidden dangers in her body were completely magnified, and her body could not adapt at all, which is why she had this result.”
