Yun Qingluo and her group struggled through the poisonous miasma, but no matter how hard they tried, the road seemed to have no end.
Just then, Xiao Yi suddenly spoke up: "Something's not right, there's something wrong with this road."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo abruptly stopped, and the people who had been following her behind her also stopped immediately, staring at Yun Qingluo with wary expressions.
Meanwhile, on the other side, 'Cloud Fall' quietly followed the group without making any unusual moves.
Yun Qingluo turned around and said to the people behind her, "We've been walking for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. Logically speaking, it's impossible that we can't get out of here indefinitely, and the scenery around us all seems to look exactly the same."
The shadow looked at the falling clouds and asked, "So what do you mean?"
Yun Qingluo's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cold smile, and she replied, "I suspect there's an array here. Doesn't Lord Ying know that?"
She didn't believe the shadow hadn't noticed.
Shadow seemed surprised that she would point it out so directly, and paused for a moment.
After a moment's thought, he nodded and admitted, "This is an illusion array from my Xuancang Continent. I didn't speak up before because I was wondering how such an array could appear in this remote place."
The Ghost Doctor Bai Chang didn't doubt it at all, and asked in surprise, "Could there be someone in here? With such poisonous miasma, how can they move freely here without being affected at all? Is that possible?"
The man in white glanced at the Ghost Doctor and slowly said, "Perhaps there are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people. Now that we've left the Sumeru Continent and seen so much, we should be even more vigilant."
The group of guards looked around warily.
Shadow glanced at Mo Beichen, who was still unconscious. He looked around at the scene and said to the man in white, "We need to find a place to rest for a while. Lord Mo's injuries are not suitable for staying here for long. I will deactivate the formation now. You guys keep an eye on him."
Yun Qingluo knew the meaning behind the shadow's last sentence: he was afraid that she and 'Yun Qingluo' would cause trouble while he was breaking the formation.
She had no objection to this.
While the shadow was breaking the formation, Yun Qingluo took the opportunity to step back a few steps, allowing Xiao Yi to examine Mo Beichen up close.
"That palm strike to the chest was delivered with all his might. If he hadn't had internal energy protecting him, his dantian would probably have shattered long ago. Fortunately, he had internal energy protecting him, so his internal injuries weren't serious. He just needs to recuperate for a while. But the strange thing is the injury to his brain. If there really was a silver needle piercing his brain, there's no reason why I wouldn't be able to detect it. It's really weird."
Upon hearing Xiao Yi's words, Yun Qingluo's heart sank: "Nothing can be detected? Is there no sign of damage to his cerebral cortex at all?"
"No, I scanned the surface of the scalp twice, and there were no needle marks or any other signs. But there are indeed traces of damage to the brain's nerves. That's all I could detect; I couldn't find anything else."
This reminded Yun Qingluo of her own memory being erased, and she looked somewhat nervous. "Could it be some kind of secret technique? What if... what if his memory was also erased?"
After saying this, Yun Qingluo felt weak all over, as if a huge stone was pressing on her chest.
She was deeply traumatized by the memory-erasing incident, since she had no recollection of it whatsoever. What if Mo Beichen's memory was also erased, and he didn't remember her or their child?
How can she tell her two children that their father doesn't remember them?
Yun Qingluo felt a sharp pain in her heart whenever she thought of that scene.
"Don't scare yourself. Maybe it's for another reason. By the way, there's something I need to tell you. Do you remember after you got married, when Mo Beichen had a seizure and you saved him, he carried you out the door?"
Xiao Yi's sudden turn of events left Yun Qingluo momentarily bewildered, before her memory returned to the scene of her wedding.
“His leg wasn’t healed yet, but he carried you out. I detected a power that didn’t belong to him lingering in his body, but that power seemed to have a soul. When I probed again, it had already hidden away. I couldn’t detect it several times after that, so I stopped worrying about it.”
Yun Qingluo quickly said, "You didn't tell me about this."
Xiao Yi said in a friendly tone, "Oh dear, I was just worried you'd be overthinking things. Besides, the fact that he was able to mobilize that power that time means it wasn't harmful to him. I just don't know why he hid it later. But interestingly, I found traces of it again today."
"How so?" Yun Qingluo pressed.
"When Mo Beichen was injured, not only did his internal energy help him block the attack, but that power also appeared, and it's even consuming energy to repair Mo Beichen's brain nerves right now," Xiao Yi said with some surprise.
Yun Qingluo was stunned. "I've never heard of any power that can repair the human nervous system. This is incredible."
After Yun Qingluo finished speaking, she subconsciously looked in the direction of Mo Beichen.
He was lying on a makeshift stretcher, which Shadow had his guards make earlier.
The stretcher was too rudimentary; Mo Beichen's arms were hanging limply at his sides, and his face was turned to the side, making his posture look very uncomfortable.
Yun Qingluo moved her lips, but then restrained herself.
The system has wheelchairs and medical stretchers, which are much more comfortable than this, but Yun Qingluo pinched her palm hard; she couldn't take them out.
Xiao Yi continued, "I also find it incredible, but at this point, I think it can no longer be called power. It should be some kind of energy with defensive and healing capabilities. Actually, I didn't discover it at first. It was when I was testing Mo Beichen for the second time that I suddenly found that his brain nerves seemed to be repairing. I tested him carefully again, and the data really showed significant changes. I predicted that if he is completely cured, this energy will probably be completely exhausted."
Yun Qingluo glanced at the shadow and saw that he was concentrating on breaking the formation. She then looked away, turned around, and sat on the ground with her back to the others.
She sat cross-legged and said to Xiao Yi, "I'm coming in to take a look. Keep an eye on things outside for me."
Yun Qingluo closed her eyes and entered the system's medical room. Seeing the comparison of a series of data on the big screen, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
These cold, hard data points show that Mo Beichen's brain nerves are indeed being repaired continuously, and at this rate, he should wake up tomorrow.
"Isn't it amazing? I only realized at this moment that the end of medicine is theology." Xiao Yi was somewhat shocked.
But Yun Qingluo's focus was on "how could there be such energy in Achen's body, and it seems that someone deliberately left this energy in his body. His father didn't love him when he was young, and his mother died in childbirth. Who would go to such lengths to leave such energy in his body?"
