"You don't know, life is a luxury to me. I don't know what will happen on the day of my adulthood, but I am already prepared." The air was filled with a sense of sadness. Yuanhui's words truly touched Long Wu Xian's heart, a girl who lived just for the sake of living, a person with a resilient heart always able to touch others.
Long Wu Xian thought of his past self, naturally despised by the clan, enduring humiliation but constantly striving, never giving up. That desolation, how similar it was to Yuanhui.
"Miss Yuan, since you have persisted for eighteen years, why not make one final effort? But I would prefer to assess your situation myself," Long Wu Xian spoke.
Yuanhui turned around and looked at Long Wu Xian once again.
"But..."
"Please believe in me," Long Wu Xian said calmly, five words that came out of his mouth that left Yuanhui immensely shocked!
She could see the sincere and confident gaze of Long Wu Xian. She knew that the person before her was worthy of her trust.
When it came to matters of curses, Yuanhui had long given up and no longer trusted anyone. However, today, this young man of similar age suddenly touched her in a way she had not expected. She felt a strong sense of confidence emanating from Long Wu Xian, once again giving her a feeling of trust.
"Mm."
Yuanhui nodded blankly, she believed in Long Wu Xian, even though she did not harbor much hope, it was simply a sense of inexplicable trust.
"Very well, please have a seat, Miss Yuan," Long Wu Xian instructed.
Following Long Wu Xian's guidance, Yuanhui sat cross-legged, while Long Wu Xian sat behind her.
"Miss Yuan, I will now use my soul power to explore your body. Release all your defenses and open up your essence," Long Wu Xian said.
"Mm," Yuanhui nodded without hesitation.
Releasing all her defenses, especially her soul and essence, was an extremely dangerous thing to do. However, Yuanhui did not consider these risks. Since she had chosen to trust Long Wu Xian, she would continue to trust him, and besides, she did not have much time left in this world, there was nothing left to fear.
"Then I shall begin," Long Wu Xian said calmly.
Yuanhui nodded.
Long Wu Xian slowly reached out his palm, pressing it against Yuanhui's back.
Just as Long Wu Xian's palm touched Yuanhui, he could feel her body tremble slightly. Long Wu Xian, who was behind her, did not notice, but at that moment, Yuanhui's face turned red with embarrassment. Though they were separated by clothes, she felt uncomfortable being touched by a man for the first time.
Long Wu Xian remained composed, merging his spirit force with his vast soul power, and directly entered Yuanhui's body.
Soul communication techniques were extremely powerful, enabling exploration of everything around, with a heightened sense of perception. Long Wu Xian's soul power entered Yuanhui's body and swiftly roamed without detecting any abnormalities. Just as Yuan Yun had mentioned earlier, Yuanhui's spiritual veins were intact, her true qi vigorous, making her no different from a normal person.
Without any hesitation, Long Wu Xian's soul power began to probe deeper into Yuanhui's soul. His soul power was like an invisible dragon, under its exploration, all mysterious entities would be laid bare.
Not far away, Yuan Yun and other high-ranking members watched quietly by the rockery, their expressions filled with tension. Initially, Yuan Yun prevented them from intervening, but out of concern for his daughter, they couldn't help but come.
"Master, what is this expert doing?" Yuan Tianzun asked with concern.
"How would I know, just keep quiet and watch," Yuan Yun retorted impatiently.
After Long Wu Xian's soul power roamed around Yuanhui's soul, still finding nothing, he proceeded to probe even deeper. He had reason to believe that there must be something extremely mysterious in Yuanhui's soul, and her condition was definitely not a curse.
Just as Long Wu Xian's soul power launched a vigorous exploration, a surge of energy akin to a flood suddenly rushed out and collided with his soul power, forcefully repelling it.
"Bang!"
Long Wu Xian spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes red, body trembling violently. Finally, Long Wu Xian understood why they couldn't solve the problem, even his Saint Emperor-level soul was violently pushed back, let alone an Immortal Emperor.
"Master!!!" Seeing this, Yuan Yun and the others hurried over.
"Don't come over," Long Wu Xian waved his hand at them, signaling not to disturb him.
"Listen to the master, don't go over,"...
"Wow!" After hearing Yuanhui's words, Yuanhui exclaimed, "I can't believe it, Master, you actually have..."
"Get out!!!" Long Wu Xian interrupted Yuanhui without hesitation.
"I... I know I was wrong, Master..." Yuanhui lowered his head, but Long Wu Xian did not scold him as usual, instead fell silent suddenly.
"Well... That was the first time in this life that I met someone worth cherishing, also... the woman I owe the most to!"
"Ah, your woman..."
"Cough cough, in this life, I've known many women, but all of them were like pure siblings, with no special feelings. I just want to clarify that between us... no games on our feelings!"
Long Wu Xian hastily explained, not wanting his glorious image to be shattered in the eyes of his disciples, that would be embarrassing!
"In conclusion, our relationship is profound... definitely not a game!!!"
"Miss Yuan's spiritual veins are exhausted, her internal organs shattered, and she had previously burnt her soul power to control that energy. It's an irreversible situation! Now, I've exhausted almost all of my Saint Emperor soul just to keep her last remnant soul alive. However, this can only last for a short time, probably less than a year. After that, Miss Yuan will exhaust her last bit of vitality and perish completely."
Long Wu Xian frowned, he did not conceal Yuanhui's situation because it was impossible to hide.
In other words, Yuan Miss's current situation was dire, almost akin to being a dead person!
Even if Long Wu Xian had the ability to keep her alive for a bit longer, without finding a solution, the final outcome would remain the same.
Silence fell, the scene fell into complete silence!
The people at Tianxian Mansion carried expressions of indescribable sorrow. They had clearly heard Long Wu Xian's words. Though Miss Yuan had not died outwardly, practically there was no difference. Even if Long Wu Xian used means to seal off her last remnant soul...
But a year later?
With the spiritual veins exhausted, the ten vital organs shattered, and the soul power depleted!
Alas, the destroyed physical body could be rebuilt, but where could the dispersed soul seek refuge?
In simple terms, saving Yuan Miss was undoubtedly much more difficult than resurrection from the dead!!!
" Wu Xian, do you have a way?" Yuan Yun looked at Long Wu Xian with hopeful eyes. This young man was probably his last hope. Given Yuan Miss's current condition, even if all the Illusion Spirit Masters in Shura City were to come, they would still be helpless.
"To save Miss's life, two conditions must be met," Long Wu Xian frowned.
"What are those two?" Yuan Yun hurriedly asked.
"Illusion Spirit Spring and Resurrection Pill," Long Wu Xian said.
When these two items were mentioned by Long Wu Xian, the faces of everyone at Tianxian Mansion darkened once again. Any illusions they had previously harbored were completely shattered. These two items, not to mention seeing them, even hearing about them for the first time, were extremely rare. It was certain that they were precious treasures, so rare that even if they were sought in Shura Realm, they would be hard to find.
"Illusion Spirit Spring can replenish Miss Yuan's soul integrity, awakening her soul. This is the most crucial and indispensable factor. The Resurrection Pill can help Miss Yuan rebuild her spiritual veins and internal organs. Both are essential, and to refine the Resurrection Pill, two main ingredients are needed: Reshaping Holy Water and Longevity Fruit! However... Illusion Spirit Spring and Longevity Fruit are both rare items. It is incredibly difficult to obtain either."
Long Wu Xian said, all information regarding Miss Yuan's condition had to be truthfully disclosed to Tianxian Mansion, so Yuan Yun would spare no effort to rescue Miss Yuan.
"Illusion Spirit Spring, Longevity Fruit, Holy Water... Where can we get these things? Even if we exhaust all our resources at Tianxian Mansion, we can't obtain them," Yuan Tianzun despaired, let alone gather all three rare treasures, even one of them was beyond their reach.
Although Miss Yuan still had hope of survival, this hope was no different from despair.
"In other words, my daughter... can only lie here for a year and then pass away," Yuan Yun's voice began to sound hoarse, as he struggled to control his emotions.
His daughter had suffered so much up to this point, just when she had finally seen the light of day, she fell into a real disaster. As a father, he could do nothing but stand here in distress.
"Uncle, rest assured, I will find a way to wake Yuan Miss up. Even if we need the moon from the sky, I will pluck it for her. Tianxing City is too small. Once this matter is resolved, I will cross the Qianluan Mountain and head to the East Wilderness, where there are many rare treasures. In a year, I will definitely find something to save Yuan Miss," Long Wu Xian said confidently and decisively. This was something he had to do. Although Illusion Spirit Spring and Longevity Fruit were precious, Long Wu Xian knew that they also existed in the Six Realms.
