Upon seeing Zhuque's overly protective attitude towards Leng Wuxin, Cangyun felt a surge of anger and grew even more resentful of this person who shouldn't have been there in the first place.
"Senior brother, you're awake! How are you feeling now?"
Just then, Suzaku suddenly spoke up somewhat urgently, and everyone's attention was immediately drawn to him.
Leng Wuxin's eyes were somewhat unfocused at that moment, but when he saw the person in front of him clearly, his eyes suddenly turned red. He then reached out and tightly grasped Zhuque's arm, his voice hoarse as he said, "Is it really you... is it really you? Junior sister, I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry..."
As he spoke, he suddenly burst into tears, and when he got to the emotional part, he coughed violently.
"I advise you to say less if you don't want to die. Getting too emotional won't do you any good in your current situation."
Just as the atmosphere was getting a little sentimental, Yan Qianhe spoke up at an inopportune moment, pouring cold water on the mood.
"Senior brother, don't think about anything else for now. Healing your injuries is the most important thing. I will do everything in my power to save you!"
After saying that, Zhuque took a deep breath, but it was unclear whether she was comforting Leng Wuxin or herself.
"you……"
Upon hearing this, Cang Yun became anxious again. He was worried that the woman might do something foolish in a moment of impulse, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Li Chang'an.
"I do have a compromise. Could we have more people share our internal energy with him? That way, we won't let one person exhaust all their internal energy."
Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan's brow twitched slightly, and he immediately said, "Chang An! You wouldn't be thinking of..."
“That’s right. If this method works, I’m willing to do my part.”
Li Chang'an spoke calmly, but her nonchalant expression only fueled Feng Beichuan's anger.
These people are insane!
The reason why Li Chang'an has been able to maintain her firm foothold in the military camp and the imperial court is fundamentally because of her identity as a female war goddess. If she did not have the protection of her martial arts skills, she would be no different from a beast without its claws.
Feng Beichuan felt that Li Chang'an was now pushing him into a fire pit.
Yan Qianhe was genuinely surprised by this, but she still answered Li Chang'an's question objectively.
"The method you mentioned is indeed feasible, but the depth of internal energy varies from person to person. If it's not controlled properly, it won't save his life and could have the opposite effect. If you really want to use this method, you'd better think carefully about the consequences."
After hearing Yan Qianhe's words, Zhuque hurriedly frowned and looked at Li Chang'an, saying, "Your Highness, this is absolutely unacceptable! I am already very grateful that you can forgive and forget, how could I let you damage your inner strength again? Apart from me, none of you need to get involved in this matter."
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
She knew very well that the girl felt guilty about this matter, but little did she know that she had long regarded her as family, so how could she care about such external things?
However, Suzaku is not a soft-hearted person. Once she sets her mind on something, it is difficult for others to sway her. Even if it means being shattered to pieces, she would rather bear it all herself.
Leng Wuxin listened silently to their conversation, and after figuring out the general outline of the situation, combined with her own circumstances, she roughly understood what they were planning to do.
Immediately, Leng Wuxin couldn't help but turn to look at Li Chang'an.
This was the first time he had ever looked directly at this woman.
Perhaps at first, Leng Wuxin still had doubts about what Li Chang'an had just said, suspecting that the other party was deliberately saying that he would help in order to achieve his goal.
But now he has to deny his own thoughts.
Because this woman's eyes were so clear, it was impossible to associate her with the words "malicious intent."
For a moment, Leng Wuxin fell into deep thought. He gradually began to doubt himself and felt even more incredulous.
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat somber.
After a moment, Leng Wuxin spoke again calmly, "No need, I'm fine. You don't need to go to such lengths. I know my own situation."
Seeing the man's blank expression, Li Chang'an frowned, thinking to himself that this man was really stubborn.
Even at this point, they can still draw such clear lines.
"Senior brother!"
Zhuque tried to persuade him, but Leng Wuxin interrupted her again with a raised hand, saying, "I am someone whose cultivation has been crippled, so how can I talk about internal strength? I appreciate your good intentions, but there is really no need for that."
As he spoke, Leng Wuxin's face clearly showed a hint of sadness, as if recalling those unpleasant old stories had reopened old wounds, and even his tone sounded rather sarcastic.
Everyone was startled upon hearing this, and then looked at Leng Wuxin in disbelief.
No internal energy!
How is that possible?
A complex look flashed across Li Chang'an's eyes.
Recalling his previous encounters with the other party, no matter how he thought about it, Leng Wuxin didn't seem like someone without internal energy.
Li Chang'an prided himself on his martial prowess, but he hadn't gained much of an advantage when he fought Leng Wuxin before.
If someone can reach this level without internal energy, then that's terrifying.
"What do you mean you don't have... How could you not have internal energy? When I took your pulse just now, I clearly felt the internal energy in your meridians!"
This time, Yan Qianhe finally lost her composure. If what Leng Wuxin said was true, wouldn't that be equivalent to overturning all her previous conclusions?
He would rather think that Leng Wuxin was talking nonsense than accept that his own judgment was wrong.
Leng Wuxin remained calm. Looking at Yan Qianhe's astonished face, he smiled and said, "The internal energy you sensed earlier was transformed from Gu worms. I won't go into details about that. In short, all the methods I used were unorthodox and evil techniques that you all look down on, so only I have a way to deal with them."
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.
She had heard a little about the method Leng Wuxin mentioned, which involved refining internal energy using Gu worms.
This is an ancient Miao secret technique, but it is not an evil technique. It's just that things that take an unorthodox approach seem particularly unacceptable in the face of the righteous path.
