The room fell into a deathly silence.
Su Luo stood there in a daze, as if struck by lightning.
Grandpa...will he die?
Why did it suddenly become like this?
Su Luo had a vague guess and her heart ached.
Her feet felt like they were filled with lead, frozen in place, unable to take a single step.
After a long silence in the room, Mr. Su asked calmly, "How many more are there?"
Dugu Alchemist said unhappily, "Only a year."
"No, one year isn't enough for that girl to grow up. I need three years." Old Master Su glared at Dugu Alchemist angrily, "Give me three years!"
Dugu Alchemist looked at him helplessly: "I'm not God, I can't decide your lifespan. If you want to live longer, go find your precious granddaughter. Her medical skills are much better than mine!"
However, Old Master Su shook his head: "The little girl is very smart. She can find out the clues with just one look, let alone taking the pulse?"
"Then prepare to die." Dugu Alchemist spread his hands. "Who told you to give her all the power of inheritance? I told you not to use your spiritual power, yet you keep using it!"
"How can it be used!"
"Not yet? That time two years ago, that time a year ago, and now this time, each time your soul was damaged and your spiritual energy was exhausted? It's a wonder a patient like you can live long!" Dugu Alchemist snorted coldly, "Besides, you don't listen to my survivors, and now you let that girl come..."
"Shut up!" Old Master Su warned Dugu Alchemist, "I'm warning you, don't tell the little girl!"
The little girl is extremely smart and she can easily see the truth. If she knew the truth... Old Man Su thought of those dark, smart eyes that were full of trust in him, and sighed in his heart.
Bang!
The far goal was pushed open!
Old Master Dugu and Old Master Su looked at each other, their eyes narrowed slightly!
Old Master Su's fingers moved slightly, but before he could gather his spiritual power, Alchemist Dugu slapped him in annoyance: "I'll take care of it!"
The conversation they just had must not be leaked out!
If people knew that the Sioux's patron saint was ill and would soon die, the Sioux would surely suffer a severe blow!
However, when they saw clearly the person rushing towards them, they felt mixed emotions!
The person who rushed in was none other than... Su Luo!
"Girl Luo, you—"
Old Master Su looked at Su Luo's face full of tears, and tears welled up in her eyes. He was stunned for a moment.
Su Luo rushed to Old Man Su and glared at him fiercely!
She had a thousand words to say, but when she saw the old and sick man in front of her, tears suddenly came out!
"Grandpa, why did you hide this from me?"
"Why did you become like this after you passed on the power to me?!"
"If my inherited power requires you to sacrifice your life, then what's the point of having such an inherited power?!"
"Grandpa, why did you lie to me!!!"
Su Luo was crying and yelling at Old Man Su. She stood there at a loss, crying like a child.
Su Luo never knew that her grandfather, whom she always thought was the pillar of the family, was actually terminally ill and would soon die.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandpa——" Su Luo knelt down in front of the bed and hugged Grandpa Su.
Old Master Su stiffened.
