Compared to other flying swords of the same level, the Song of Broken Jade wasn't particularly fast, but it only took twelve hours to cover the next ninety thousand kilometers. In other words, a flying sword that wasn't particularly fast could cover a distance of more than ten thousand kilometers in two hours. It was several times faster than a ship that traversed the spiritual realm.
In these twelve hours, Yan Li only sat on the flying sword for a while. The Song of Broken Jade was very intelligent and could avoid obstacles. Ordinary Starfall Beasts couldn't even see its shadow.
He set off at five in the morning and arrived outside White Water City at around five in the evening.
White Water City closed its gates at nine in the evening, and the curfew also began at nine in the evening. Compared to other cities, it could be said to be very relaxed and open.
It was also because the Delinquents had a strong control and were confident that they could quickly suppress any disturbances.
When Yan Li entered the city, he remembered that Cangjian Peak didn't give him a token to represent his identity. Did disciples of the Court Of Sword not need proof?
When he passed by a group of delinquents, he suddenly understood because he felt the aura of a flying sword from them. The other party obviously felt it too, but didn't know him. They just nodded at him in a friendly manner.
Yes, the flying swords that came out of the Sword-cleansing Pond could sense each other. This was the unique mark of the Court Of Sword. Why would they need any other proof?
With his doubts cleared, he went to the Medicine King Yard.
There were still many patients in the Medicine King Yard, but the one in charge was not Su Xingyu.
This time, not only did he not need to line up, but when he was discovered by the people of the Medicine King Yard, he was respectfully invited to the inner room.
He thought it was a change in status, but he didn't expect that just as he picked up the tea offered by the messenger, Su Xingyu would appear out of nowhere and grab his collar. He glared at Yan Li with bloodshot eyes. "You bastard, where's Sister Caiwei? Where did you hide her? Let me tell you, don't say that she went back to the Lotus Seat to get away. Every time she left, she would say goodbye to me! "
"So you told the people of the Medicine King Hall to use all means to make me stay the moment they see me?" Yan Li slowly put down the teacup. "Is there anything better than treating me like an honored guest? Even if my destination is not here, I might have to enjoy it."
"What did you say?" Su Xingyu asked.
"I'm here for you," Yan Li said.
Su Xingyu let go of Yan Li and snapped, "Why are you looking for me?"
"Help me diagnose again." Yan Li reached out his hand.
"Diagnose what?" Su Xingyu frowned in confusion.
"Black Blood Curse," Yan Li said.
Su Xingyu was startled at first, then his killing intent soared as he said, "Don't talk nonsense with me. Hurry up and tell me where Sister Caiwei went. Otherwise, don't even think of stepping out of the medicine today …"
"I tried the method you mentioned," Yan Li interrupted him.
"Medicine King Hall … What did you say?" Su Xingyu suddenly jumped up and stared at Yan Li with wide eyes.
"I tried the method you mentioned to dispel the curse." Yan Li raised his voice.
"No, no!" Su Xingyu said in shock. "You, where did you get those things?"
"You don't need to care about that." Yan Li raised his hand. "You just need to help me diagnose whether the Black Blood Curse is still in my body."
"Put it down." Su Xingyu temporarily forgot about Gu Caiwei. With a serious expression, he stood beside Yan Li, grabbed his wrist and carefully examined it.
His brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes calmed. After a long time, he let go of his hand and fell into deep thought.
"How is it?" Yan Li said.
Su Xingyu shook his head, then nodded. He crooked his finger at Yan Li. "Come closer."
Yan Li had no choice but to move closer.
Su Xingyu opened Yan Li's eyelids and looked at it. Then he grabbed Yan Li's chin and twisted it left and right to observe. "It doesn't make sense. Your body has changed a lot …"
Yan Li was slightly shocked. He almost forgot that his body had changed. If the other party noticed something wrong, it was hard to guarantee that he would not be reported. But it was also very suspicious to suddenly leave, so he could only find an excuse.
When he was thinking about what excuse to use to leave, Su Xingyu suddenly said, "I'm sorry."
"What do you mean?" Yan Li frowned.
Su Xingyu let go of his hand and said, "Your pulse is steadier than before, and the signs of life are more vigorous. It should be because of the blood ginseng."
Yan Li breathed a sigh of relief.
He said vaguely, "Maybe. Then what are you sorry about? "
"The Black Blood Curse is still in your body." Su Xingyu said.
Yan Li said in a low voice, "Really?"
Su Xingyu nodded slightly. "When I was feeling your pulse, I used my Spirit to go deep into your heart and found that your heart and veins have changed a lot. Let's not talk about this first. The curse is still entrenched in the depths of your heart and it has not been eradicated."
Yan Li's heart immediately sank into the abyss.
"But fortunately," Su Xingyu continued, "because of your blood change, your blood circulation, although a little slower than usual, is much stronger. I believe that your ability to resist the curse has increased a lot. Maybe … "
He hesitated for a moment. "Maybe you can endure a little longer during the outbreak …" He seemed to know that this kind of consolation was not convincing at all. He shook his head apologetically.
"Can I still be saved?" Yan Li asked.
Su Xingyu said, "The curse has penetrated deep into your heart and veins. This proves that that theory is not feasible. There have been no similar cases before, so I cannot predict when the curse will break out. But according to my estimation, it will not take more than a year. "
"I can only live for a year?" Yan Li said.
"I heard that you have just become a disciple of Cangjian Peak. Fate really makes fools of people." Su Xingyu somewhat sympathized with this young man in front of him.
Yan Li sat blankly for a while, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Please help me keep this a secret."
"I know." Su Xingyu said.
Yan Li suddenly propped up his abnormally tired body and slowly walked out.
"Wait a minute, where is Sister Caiwei?" Su Xingyu suddenly remembered and quickly grabbed Yan Li's shoulder.
"She will be back in a few days." Yan Li turned back and forced a smile, "Don't worry, I will protect her."
Su Xingyu was a little embarrassed and slowly let go of his hand. "Then, then Brother Yan, please go ahead."
Yan Li continued to walk out.
Su Xingyu thought of another matter and said to Yan Li's back, "Oh right, your one-armed headhunter friend is leaving White Water City today. He asked me to say goodbye to you on his behalf."
"Leave?" Yan Li stopped.
"I just went to see them off. If you go to the port now, you should be able to see them one last time."
…
With his identity, Yan Li quickly found Ba Jin, who was about to board a ship and leave, at the Sky River Harbor.
After counting the number of people, Ba Jin, who was about to board a ship and leave, unexpectedly found Yan Li. Naturally, he was very happy and quickly went up to Yan Li and gave him a bear hug. "Brother, I, Old Ba, heard that you successfully passed the Court Of Sword!"
