Ren Yingying jumped in fright and hastily pulled Yi Lin to the side. "Don't worry, Brother Song will save him. Don't make such a vow randomly."
Yi Lin shook her head. "As long as Brother Linghu is well, it doesn't matter if my life is shortened by twenty years."
Seeing the tears in Yi Lin's eyes, Ren Yingying could not help but be speechless. After a long time, she faintly sighed. Love was the most hurtful thing.
Song Qingshu, on the other hand, had a strange expression on his face. Did Yi Lin, this little nun, forget that Tian Boguang was also seriously injured? Moreover, he did not hesitate to self-destruct for her sake …
However, there was no such thing as love. He could only express sympathy for Tian Boguang.
In the end, Ren Yingying still pulled Yi Lin out on the grounds of not wanting to disturb the treatment. Yi Lin did not hesitate at all when she heard that it might affect Linghu Chong's treatment.
Song Qingshu finally calmed down and circulated his internal energy to help the two dispel the ice-cold zhenqi. After several hours, he withdrew his hand from Tian Boguang's back. Although both of them were seriously injured, Tian Boguang's injuries appeared serious only because his internal energy was too low. Zuo Lenchan's attack on him was completely incomparable to Linghu Chong's.
It must be known that his sneak attack on Linghu Chong was a deliberate and well-prepared thunderous strike. Because he was afraid of his opponent's swordsmanship, once he gained the upper hand, he completely aimed to kill his opponent. If not for Linghu Chong practicing the Yijin Jing and using the Nine Strategies Beyond the Swords to force him back at the critical moment, he would probably have died long ago.
At this time, Tian Boguang slowly opened his eyes. "Many thanks to King Qi for saving my life." His voice did not contain the joy of being saved. On the contrary, it was filled with loneliness. Presumably, he had heard Yi Lin's words.
Song QingShu replied, "Originally, I shouldn't have saved you when you committed evil deeds in your early years, but letting you die would be letting you off too lightly. You should use the rest of your life to do good deeds to make up for your past sins."
Tian Boguang smiled bitterly. "Now that I am neither a man nor a woman, I deserve it. However, how can it compare to the harm I caused to those women in the past? Rest assured, King Qi, I will use the rest of my life to turn over a new leaf and make up for my past mistakes. "
Putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha was easy to say, but putting down the butcher's knife was easier said than done. The reason why Tian Boguang had such a huge change was because he had his' thing 'cut off by Master Bujie. The other reason was that he had fallen in love with Yi Lin and tasted the bitterness of love. Both were indispensable.
Song Qingshu also sighed and comforted him, "That's how the world is. The person you like often doesn't like you. You should take it easy."
Tian Boguang nodded in agreement. "I won't disturb you from healing him." Then, he went to the room next door to rest and recuperate with a lonely look on his face. Song Qingshu continued to help Linghu Chong heal his injuries. After another two hours, he finally managed to dissolve the cold Zhen Qi in his body. At this time, the sky was already faintly turning white.
By this time, Linghu Chong had already woken up. After hesitating for a while, he said with difficulty, "Thank you very much." For a long time, he had regarded Song Qingshu as his irreconcilable enemy. He did not expect that one day, he would actually need Song Qingshu's help. At the same time, he had to thank him.
However, Linghu Chong was a gentleman. Even though he felt uncomfortable, he still expressed his gratitude.
Song Qingshu shook his head. "Brother Linghu, you don't have to be so polite."
At this time, Yi Lin and the others received the news and hurried over. Seeing that Linghu Chong had woken up, they couldn't help but choke with sobs. "Big Brother Linghu!"
Linghu Chong also revealed a trace of a smile. "Junior Sister Yi Lin."
Yi Lin hurriedly looked at Song Qingshu. "Prince Song, is Big Brother Linghu Chong alright now?"
Song Qingshu shook his head. "How could it be so easy? I spent an entire night to purge the cold Zhen Qi from his body. As for the internal injuries he sustained in his meridians and organs, I still haven't started treating them."
"Ah?" Yi Lin cried out in surprise. Her small face was filled with worry and disappointment.
Linghu Chong smiled bitterly. "Junior Sister Yi Lin, don't make things difficult for Song … Young Master. I was seriously injured. Half of my body is already buried in the ground. If it wasn't for him, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for me to see you again. Zuo Lenchan's cold Zhen Qi is extremely insidious. The sneak attack from before penetrated deep into my meridians. In this world, I'm afraid that only he, who has a divine cultivation, can purge the terrifying cold poison in my body in one night. " He was worried that Yi Lin didn't understand the difficulties involved, so he deliberately explained to her. However, when he finished, he felt both admiration and disappointment. He had always regarded Zuo Lenchan as an imaginary enemy. He thought that after practicing the Muscle-bone Strengthening Scripture, he would be able to compete with him. However, he didn't expect that the gap between their strength would become so wide that he might not even be able to see his back now.
This was human nature. When the level of both sides was about the same, jealousy and rivalry would arise. However, once the gap was too big, all that was left was admiration and admiration.
Yi Lin opened her mouth wide. "I didn't know you were so powerful. Yi Lin's knowledge is shallow. I hope Prince Song won't blame me."
Song Qingshu shook his head. Naturally, he wouldn't argue with her. Instead, he looked at Linghu Chong and asked a topic that interested him. "Brother Linghu, although I know that you need to rest now, can I ask you a few questions?"
Linghu Chong nodded. With Yi Lin's help, he leaned back against the headboard. "Go ahead."
"Is it true that you've committed treason and proclaimed yourself the King of Shu?" Song Qingshu asked.
Linghu Chong nodded. "Yes."
"Ah?" Ren Yingying exclaimed.
She had always thought that there must be some misunderstanding. She didn't expect him to admit it himself.
Song Qingshu also frowned. "But with Brother Linghu's character, I don't think you would do such a thing."
Linghu Chong let out a long sigh. "I didn't expect that the only person in the world who is willing to believe in me is you." Although he didn't say it out loud, everyone knew what he meant. The whole world regarded him as a traitor. Only his former rival in love believed him.
Song Qingshu shook his head. "It's not just me. Yingying believes in you, too. Yi Lin, Tian Boguang, and all of them believe in you."
"Thank you, Sister Yi Lin." Linghu Chong paused and looked at Ren Yingying. After a while, he continued, "Thank you, Lady Song."
Ren Yingying looked a little embarrassed, but she knew that he needed time to heal the wound in his heart.
After calming himself down, Linghu Chong continued, "A few months ago, Jia Shidao's men suddenly came to me. They told me that they had found out who I was and knew that I, Linghu Chong, was pretending to be Wu Xi."
Song Qingshu nodded secretly. He could hide his identity for a while, but he couldn't hide it forever. Both Han Xingzhou and Jia Shidao were cunning people. They would find out who he really was sooner or later.
"Last time, Jia Shidao's men were defeated in the Kung Fu Competition. I thought he sent someone here to replace me." Linghu Chong smiled. "But I didn't care. The reason why I came to Sichuan was to … to compete with you, Brother Song. But when I learned that you were married, I knew I couldn't do anything about it. So, I stopped thinking about it."
Ren Yingying said apologetically, "Young Master Linghu, I and my daughter have done you wrong." Back then, when Ren Woxing defeated Dongfang Bubai and regained his position as the Cult Master, Linghu Chong had contributed greatly to it. In the end, Ren Woxing betrothed his daughter to Song QingShu, who was even more powerful than him. As for Ren Yingying herself, she felt very bad for throwing herself into the arms of another man.
Linghu Chong shook his head lightly. "There's nothing to be sorry about. Relationships are always like this. The person you like might not like you back." Obviously, he had heard what Song Qingshu had said to comfort Tian Boguang, so he said it as if it had happened to him.
Ren Yingying, who was quick-witted, keenly sensed that Linghu Chong might not be referring to her. After spending so much time with him, she naturally knew who Linghu Chong was.
"Those people didn't expose me. Instead, they wanted me to make a deal with them. They wanted me to give them the official seal, and they would still let me enjoy all the benefits of a high position here." Linghu Chong sneered. "But I'm not the kind of person who covets wealth and power. Plus, I was already a little disheartened and wanted to leave. Of course, I wouldn't agree to such an ambiguous handover …
"Who knew that the other party would suddenly take out the personal belongings of Mistress and Junior Sister …" At this point, a trace of anger flashed across Linghu Chong's face, triggering the injuries in his body. He could not help but cough violently.
Yi Lin, who was beside him, hurriedly handed him a glass of water. At the same time, she gently patted his back to soothe him. Linghu Chong smiled at her gratefully and said, "Those two items are very much liked by Mistress and Junior Sister. They have been carefully protecting them. They definitely wouldn't accidentally drop them. At that time, my heart was shocked and cold. I knew that something must have happened to them."
"Sure enough, that person told me that Mistress and Junior Sister are now in their hands. If they don't cooperate with them, not only will they lose their lives, but they will also be inhumanely humiliated." Linghu Chong clenched his fists tightly. How could he not be angry when his most respected Mistress and his most beloved childhood sweetheart were in such danger?
"These people are really shameless!" Ren Yingying and Yi Lin were filled with righteous indignation when they heard this, but Song QingShu sighed inwardly. Although he was shameless, he had grasped Ling Huchong's weak spot, making him unable to resist at all.
As expected, Linghu Chong said in a deep voice, "In order to prevent them from being humiliated, I had to agree for the time being. They took away my official seal and put me under house arrest in the mansion. There were people watching me day and night, not allowing me to contact the outside world."
"It was not until later when they moved me to the King of Shu's Mansion that I vaguely learned that they had committed treason in my name!"
Song QingShu sighed inwardly when he saw Linghu Chong's angry look. Normally, Linghu Chong was quite smart and quick-witted, but when it came to Yue Lingshan, his intelligence would plummet. If he cooperated with the enemy like this, would the enemy let Yue Lingshan and her mother go?
However, there was no need to criticize him now. Song Qingshu had to admire Jia Shidao's ruthlessness. In order to bring down Han Xingzhou, he had found out that there was something wrong with Wu Xi's identity, but he had been holding back and waiting for such a big move. Han Xingzhou was probably doomed this time.
He had gambled with the fate of the Southern Song Dynasty and sacrificed the lives of so many soldiers and people. No wonder he was one of the most treacherous ministers in history! Song Qingshu secretly became vigilant. He had to be very careful when he became his enemy in the future.
After chatting for a while, Linghu Chong's eyelids began to droop. Knowing that he was seriously injured and weak, he didn't disturb him and let him rest. Yi Lin volunteered to stay and take care of him.
Song Qingshu walked to the deck, and Ren Yingying took out a handkerchief to wipe the fine sweat on his forehead. "Thank you for your hard work tonight."
Song QingShu held her little hand and sighed, "Only my own women know how to care for me. Look at that Yi Lin. I saved the man of her dreams, but she only has eyes for Linghu Chong. She didn't even say a word of thanks."
Ren Yingying was so shy that she subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand. Unfortunately, she didn't succeed, so she just let him be. "Yi Lin is so pitiful. Don't tell me you also have feelings for her."
