Qin Min walked over with the medical book and said excitedly, "This medical book was given to me by an old uncle when I was practicing medicine at the Medical City Inn! The needle technique in it is very strange, and the medical theory is different from ordinary medical theory! We pay particular attention to prescribing the right medicine for the illness, while this formation focuses on strengthening one's physique and allowing the body to fight against the illness. "
Everyone present was knowledgeable in medicine, so they understood what was going on when they heard Qin Min's words.
Just like what Gu had said earlier, since it couldn't cure the illness, it could only protect the life! Everyone had been stuck in a dead end, searching for the right medicine for the illness, but they had neglected another angle. From the perspective of martial arts, one could rely on strengthening one's physique to fight against the illness.
Although it couldn't cure the illness, it could at least give the body the ability to fight against the illness. At the very least, it wouldn't cost one's life.
In the Mysterious Continent, there was a legend that if one cultivated to the peak of "strength" and "qi", they could resist all injuries and illnesses and achieve an immortal body.
No one had ever cultivated to the peak of "strength" and "qi", but many people had used qi cultivation to resist many illnesses and external injuries.
"So, there's hope if Grand Tutor Gu cultivates true qi?" Mu Ling 'er asked in surprise.
Gu stroked his chin and said seriously, "With his current body, he might not be able to succeed, and there might not be enough time."
Han Yunxi suddenly rushed out of the door and called Long Fei Ye and the others over to tell them the good news.
Gu Beiyue was stunned at first, but then he smiled wryly.
Regardless of whether it would succeed or not, this was indeed a way, a way. Why didn't he think of it before? Why was he so obsessed with "prescribing the right medicine for the illness"?
A complicated look flitted across Long Fei Ye's eyes, and he said seriously to Gu Beiyue, "I'll try transferring true qi to you."
"Your Majesty, the promise of ten years …"
Before Gu Beiyue could finish, Han Yunxi interrupted him with a smile, "The promise of ten years is between me and Han Xiang. Why should a man like him interfere in women's matters?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.
Long Fei Ye was not a person who liked to meddle in women's affairs. Han Yunxi was the only exception, but Han Yunxi did not like this kind of exception.
Long Fei Ye would naturally watch from the sidelines and not interfere in the ten-year agreement. Gu Beiyue also laughed and had nothing to say.
However, Qin Min said, "Your majesty, Northmoon's body is too weak. I'm afraid he can't endure too much true qi. We still have to be extremely cautious about this matter. "
Qin Min was right to be worried.
Long Fei Ye nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Rui 'er spoke up. "Imperial Father, I'll invite Grandfather over. Perhaps he'll have a solution!"
Rui 'er was supposed to go to Clearbreeze Mountain, but because of the Grand Tutor, he asked for leave from his grandfather.
Han Chen's true qi was much more powerful than Long Fei Ye's. At the very least, with him around, there would be a chance to salvage the situation if anything happened. It would be an additional layer of protection.
The next day, Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi personally brought Rui 'er to Clearbreeze Mountain to invite Han Chen to come out.
Actually, there was no need for Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi. Just a single word from Rui 'er was enough to get Han Chen to come out. Many times, people really did care about affinity.
Han Chen did not really get along with his daughter, Han Yunxi. Instead, he got along particularly well with his grandson, Rui 'er. He doted on Rui' er a lot. Normally, if other people asked ten questions, he would not answer ten of them, but he would answer everything Rui 'er asked.
It had been ten years. Han Yunxi had settled the charm of a woman, noble and elegant. Long Fei Ye was more mature than before, and his deep gaze was full of masculinity.
Han Chen did not look much older. Perhaps it had to do with his pure heart and lack of desires, or perhaps it had to do with the density of his true qi. His handsome appearance and refined figure, as well as his calm, elegant, and steady steps, made it difficult for people to guess his age.
Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye walked in front hand in hand, while Han Chen held Rui 'er's hand and walked behind them. It was the most peaceful and noble scene in the world.
Seeing Han Chen appear, the people waiting in the courtyard were relieved.
Long Feiye had already explained everything clearly to Han Chen. Although everyone was waiting for Han Chen, he still treated them as air as he entered the courtyard and headed straight for the rooms.
Experts naturally had the right to be arrogant. Everyone knew this senior's temper, and they also respected this senior's identity and power.
Long Fei Ye said seriously to Gu Beiyue, "Senior and I can join hands and use our true qi to protect you. Senior will be the main, and I'll be the support. But it's still a life and death struggle. If you can resist the true qi and turn it into your own, your life will be saved. If not, you won't even have half a year to live. "
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Little Shadow couldn't help but throw himself into his mother's arms. Qin Min unconsciously bit her lip, her heart thumping wildly.
"Come in if you've thought it through." Long Fei Ye finished speaking and followed Han Chen into the house.
Gu Beiyue had already expected this outcome. No matter what method he used, there was no guarantee that he would be able to save his life.
He walked towards Qin Min and Little Shadow, gently rubbing Little Shadow's head and whispering, "Chen 'er, wait for Daddy, okay?"
Little Shadow held back his tears forcefully. He raised his head and answered loudly, "Okay!"
Gu Beiyue raised his head and looked at Qin Min. He smiled gently. "Wait for me, okay?"
In that moment, Qin Min was unable to tell if he was putting on a show before everyone, or if he wanted her to wait for him from the bottom of his heart. She was unable to tell if he wanted her to wait for him as a wife or as a doctor. Regardless, Qin Min was overjoyed.
No matter what his identity was, at least he had given her the chance to wait.
She said, "Alright, I'll wait for you."
The moment Gu Beiyue stepped through the door, Gu could not help but call out, "Doctor Nerd, I'll wait for you!"
"Grand tutor, we'll wait for you!" Rui 'er and Yan' er said together.
"Grand tutor, Ling 'er will wait for you too!" Mu Ling' er smiled forcefully.
"Northmoon, I believe in you," Han Yunxi said seriously.
Jin Zi purposefully stood up. "Grand tutor Gu, Ning Cheng will wait for you."
Lil Thing had no idea what was going on, but it knew they were all here to save the gentleman. It quickly jumped onto the gentleman's shoulder and reached out to hug his face, stroking it gently in hopes of giving him some strength.
Gu Beiyue looked at the group and Lil Thing and suddenly felt like he was at home. This small courtyard didn't seem so cold and cheerless anymore.
He nodded and strode into the room.
What followed was the days of waiting. The courtyard was very small, with only a single room. The adults all ate and slept in the open while the three children stayed in the kitchens.
Tang Hongdou and Lil Ling 'er didn't come, but Mu Ling' er left Lil Ling 'er at the Tang Clan and entrusted her to Lady Tang's care.
Everyone waited for several days.
Jin Zi, who rarely spoke to anyone, took the initiative to ask about Han Yunxi and Su Xiaoyu's situation. After all, everyone had gone through life and death in Tiger's Prison. It had already been 10 years, so Su Xiaoyu should have grown up by now.
Su Xiaoyu hadn't gone to Cloud Realm Continent with Han Chen over the past few years, and Han Yunxi had no way to keep in touch with her in the Ice Sea. Three years ago, Han Chen had sent Su Xiaoyu to the northern regions of the continent to gain experience. Even now, Han Yunxi still hadn't heard from her.
To the children of the continent, gaining experience was an extremely important thing. It symbolized growing up and becoming independent. Only those who came back alive would be acknowledged by their clansmen and nurtured by their families.
After hearing Han Yunxi's answer, Jin Zi said coldly, "With Su Xiaoyu's temper and methods, she'll definitely come back alive."
Mu Ling 'er added, "Big sis, if Lil' Yu 'er had learned martial arts from Senior Han earlier, you might not have had to compete with Han Xiang at all."
With Lil 'Yu' er's jealousy and protective temper, as well as her vicious and merciless ways, she might have gotten rid of Han Xiang earlier if she had the strength.
Han Yunxi had received a letter from Lil 'Yu' er a long time ago, reminding her of Han Xiang's evil intentions. Combined with her investigations in recent years, Han Yunxi had a rough idea of what Han Xiang was like even though she'd never met her.
She wasn't afraid of Han Xiang playing any tricks during their ten-year agreement. After all, the sect head, Han Chen, was present!
After days of waiting, Jin Zi only asked about Lil 'Yu' er and chatted with her for a while. Aside from that, everyone was silent and tense. The fresh air in the forest grew heavy, as if shrouded in a never-dispersing fog.
A single door separated them, and their fates were uncertain.
On the night of the tenth day, Gu Beiyue's screams suddenly rose up from within the room.
Everyone woke up from their dreams and rushed to the door at the same time. Qin Min was at the front and almost pushed the door open when Han Yunxi grabbed her hand. "Qin Min, you can't."
At a time like this, it was taboo to disturb someone.
Qin Min calmed down and silently retreated to the side. Who knew that what followed was Gu Beiyue's screams of pain.
Although he was sick and weak, he wasn't weak or pretentious!
Since he was young, he had been suffering from his illness. Who had ever heard him cry out? Even though Qin Min had accompanied him for more than two years and had seen him suffer from his illness several times, she had never heard him cry out!
At this moment, what exactly was he going through?
Qin Min's heart clenched, and so did everyone else's. Han Yunxi almost pushed the door open herself. This time, it was Gu who stopped her.
Han Yunxi had never seen Gu so serious before. He said, "Poison Lass, you can't!"
They could only wait.
After some time, Gu Beiyue's screams gradually subsided.
However, everyone's hearts couldn't calm down.
How was Gu Beiyue?
The room returned to its usual silence. The courtyard was also eerily quiet. The lone moon in the sky illuminated the courtyard, but it couldn't illuminate everyone's hearts.
This wait lasted for another night.
However, the next morning, just when everyone was exhausted. The creaking sound of the door opening broke the silence of the morning.
As soon as Han Chen walked out, everyone swarmed over to him and began to ask questions.
"How is Gu Beiyue?"
"Is the Grand Tutor safe?"
"Did it go well?"
"How's the situation?"
…
Han Chen was surrounded and had nowhere to go. He frowned at the crowd and said expressionlessly, "Old Man did his best."
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
However, Han Chen asked again, "Who is Qin Min?"
Qin Min almost broke down. When she heard this, she looked over and said, "I am."
Han Chen said, "Success or failure will depend on the next six months. You must use acupuncture every day to straighten out the True Qi in his body to prevent him from going berserk."
When he said this, everyone fell silent.
