Master Daotian cried out in pain: "How could I know that person was going to target your master's grandmother? If I had known, I would never have given that little devil away to you. You stay here, I will save him!"
Master Daotian immediately took out his magic weapon and transferred the essence he had previously collected to Ye Xingchen.
However, after all the essence was lost, Ye Xingchen still did not wake up, and Daotian even lost his Taoist magic to Ye Xingchen.
As time passed, Master Daotian's face turned pale and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Master, why don't you just take a rest?" the little boy said worriedly.
"How can that be possible? If something really happens to your grandmother, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life." Master Daotian said guiltily.
After a while, Master Daotian finally stopped because he could no longer hold on, gasping for breath.
"I'm so tired. This shouldn't happen. With Master's abilities, how could he not wake up after so long?" Daotian was also puzzled.
Outside the door, Cang Boyi was very worried and didn't know what happened to Xingchen.
Su Ruoan came with the abbot: "Regent, the abbot is here."
"Greetings, Lord Regent. What happened to Miss Ye?" the abbot asked worriedly.
Su Ruoan told him that something happened to Ye Xingchen. The abbot was shocked. Could it be that His Majesty had taken action? The abbot rushed over immediately.
"Thank you, Abbot, for coming here in the middle of the night. Please forgive me. Xingchen was injured by evil magic. The Taoist said that her essence was damaged." Cang Boyi replied.
"Who did it?" The abbot frowned.
"If my guess is correct, it should be Prince Mo's concubine Fu Yurou. As for the reason, it is hard to say for the time being." Cang Boyi replied.
"It's her?" The abbot frowned.
"Does the abbot know her?" Cang Boyi asked.
"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I saw her in Bao'en Temple two days ago. I noticed that her face looked strange at the time, but I didn't think much of it. Now I think it must be related to Miss Ye." The abbot answered truthfully.
Cang Boyi's face was extremely cold: "I will never let her go. Please follow me, Abbot." Then he turned around and pushed open the door.
In the room, the little boy was guarding Ye Xingchen's bed, while Master Daotian was lying on the ground, his face pale and unconscious.
"What's going on?" Cang Boyi asked.
"My master transfused his essence into my grandmother, and then he collapsed due to lack of strength," the little boy explained.
The abbot immediately went over to check on Ye Xingchen, then nodded and said, "What the boy said is correct. Miss Ye's essence was damaged by evil magic, and this magician injected a lot of essence into her, but this essence contains human, demon, and evil creatures."
Cang Boyi's handsome eyebrows frowned: "Will that be bad for Xingchen's health?"
"No, these essences have been refined and will not harm Miss Ye's body." The abbot explained.
"That's good."
"This mage has restored Miss Ye's essence. I will recite a passage of scripture for her." The abbot said as he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to recite.
"Someone, carry him away." Cang Boyi said.
The guards immediately carried Master Daotian away, but the little boy did not follow them and continued to guard Ye Xingchen.
Ye Xingchen was dazed and only felt someone nagging in his ear, which annoyed him: "Shut up and don't disturb my sleep."
The abbot, who was originally chanting scriptures, suddenly couldn't utter a word. He was shocked and looked at Ye Xingchen in front of him in disbelief.
He was just kind enough to help her chant sutras and pray for blessings, so why was he suddenly speechless? Thinking of what Ye Xingchen had just said to shut up, the abbot felt extremely depressed and aggrieved.
When Cang Boyi heard this, his tense heart finally relaxed.
Xingchen can talk and is awake now. She was sleeping. That’s great.
He did not notice the abbot's aggrieved look. Cang Boyi was very excited. As long as Ye Xingchen was fine, it was enough.
Ye Xingchen slept for three days and did not wake up until the third night.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Cang Boyi standing in front of her. She looked at Cang Boyi seriously.
"Xingchen, you're awake, that's great. Are you feeling unwell anywhere? Someone, go and call Master Daotian and the abbot over." Cang Boyi was so excited that he hugged Ye Xingchen tightly.
She finally woke up. God knows how anxious, worried and scared he was during these three days, fearing that something might happen to her.
Ye Xingchen was hugged too tightly by him and was a little breathless: "Let me go, I can't breathe."
Cang Boyi then realized his impoliteness and quickly let go of her: "I was too excited. I'm glad you're okay. Xingchen, are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Do you want to eat anything? I asked the kitchen to prepare a meal."
Seeing how much he cared about her, Ye Xingchen subconsciously called out, "Dad?"
Cang Boyi froze and looked at her in shock and disbelief: "Xingchen, what did you call me?"
"Are you my father?" Ye Xingchen asked tentatively.
In a word, Cang Boyi felt like falling into an icy cave.
The abbot, Master Daotian and others who happened to arrive were also frightened when they heard this.
"How could this happen? Master, doesn't he recognize the Regent?" Master Daotian shuddered with fear.
The abbot couldn't speak and could only write. Su Ruoan immediately handed him paper and pen, and the abbot quickly wrote down a few lines: It should be because of the damage to the soul.
"Abbot, what should we do?" Cang Boyi was very worried, his brows furrowed.
He doesn't want to be Ye Xingchen's father.
"Could it be that I lost too much essence?" Master Daotian frowned and looked at Ye Xingchen: "Master, do you know who I am?"
"Are you my grandfather?" Ye Xingchen replied.
Master Daotian's face turned black. It was all over. The master didn't recognize him anymore. It was all his fault.
The abbot's face was also very solemn. He had never encountered such a situation before and could not think of a solution for a while.
"Feng Yunmu, come and take a look." Cang Boyi ordered immediately.
Feng Yunmu ran over and felt Ye Xingchen's pulse, then he shook his head: "Regent, this is her soul, I don't understand."
"How could this be? Will Xingchen be like this for the rest of his life? Send someone else to find all the talented and righteous people from the entire Cangyue Kingdom or the four countries!" Cang Boyi ordered.
"Yes." Zhan Bai hurried to find it.
"Daddy, give me a hug. I'm so scared!" Ye Xingchen looked at Cang Boyi aggrievedly.
Three black lines appeared on Cang Boyi's forehead, and he immediately suppressed his hostility. Although he didn't like this name, he couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw Ye Xingchen so scared.
So Cang Boyi came over, stretched out his hand and hugged Ye Xingchen: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Everyone was ashamed. If Ye Xingchen woke up and knew that he called the Regent "Dad", they would not know how to face him.
"Dad, I'm hungry." Ye Xingchen continued.
Cang Boyi had no choice but to carry her to the hall, and Su Ruoan immediately had a table of food brought up.
Cang Boyi specially served her a bowl of porridge: "You just woke up, drink some porridge before eating."
Ye Xingchen nodded obediently: "Hey, Daddy."
