In the side room, Gu Xiaoxue took off her shoes and sat cross-legged behind Tan Xiu. She pressed her hands on his back and continuously injected True Essence into Tan Xiu's body.
"What's going on?"
Gu Xiaoxue's input of True Essence only lasted for half a minute before she immediately stopped. To her disbelief, Tan Xiu's body actually rejected her True Essence. She originally wanted to use True Essence to heal Tan Xiu, but not only did it not work, but it also added fuel to the fire, making Tan Xiu's body even worse.
"Could it be that Grandmaster didn't cultivate True Essence?"
"But if it's not True Essence, how can I save him?"
"Use the Blood Sacrifice Method?"
Gu Xiaoxue's expression kept changing, and her eyes flickered with a look of hesitation. The Blood Sacrifice Method could indeed save Tan Xiu, but it would be extremely harmful to her. Not only would her lifespan be reduced, but her cultivation speed would also be affected.
After a dozen seconds of thinking.
Gu Xiaoxue finally made up her mind to use the Blood Sacrifice Method to save Tan Xiu. After all, Tan Xiu was her grandmaster, the person that her master cared about the most.
"Heaven and earth are black and yellow, devour blood and take life."
Gu Xiaoxue bit her fingertip and made dozens of finger seals, forcing a drop of blood out of her body and pressing it between Tan Xiu's eyebrows. Between heaven and earth, a mysterious aura merged into the drop of blood that Gu Xiaoxue had forced out and then merged into Tan Xiu's eyebrows.
Then.
Her body floated up and instantly appeared above Tan Xiu's head. As she stood upside down in the air, she pressed her palm on the top of Tan Xiu's head and a wave of Connate Qi was transferred into Tan Xiu's body.
After doing all this.
Her face was a little pale. After her figure appeared in front of Tan Xiu, she directly sat cross-legged and closed her eyes to adjust her breath. Now, she had surpassed the Golden Core Realm and was just short of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm. However, forcing out a drop of Life Essence and using the Blood Sacrifice Method caused her to suffer a great loss. At least a few years of her lifespan had been reduced.
At this moment.
As Tan Xiu's lifeforce drained away, his heart suddenly erupted with a powerful life force. That drop of Gu Xiaoxue's lifeblood essence contained an enormous amount of energy. This energy was more powerful than all of Tan Xiu's cultivation.
Bang!
Bang!
As his heartbeat grew stronger and stronger, the power of the stars and the sun that came from the distant sky started drifting over from all directions and fusing into his body. Tan Xiu's astral power gradually gathered and recovered a little bit.
The mysterious aura was quickly stripped from the lifeblood essence and merged into Tan Xiu's sea of consciousness. It was also at this moment that Tan Xiu, whose consciousness had sunk into darkness, finally woke up from the chaos. When his consciousness instantly spread throughout his entire body, he discovered the drop of lifeblood essence, and his expression immediately changed.
He knew his body's condition very well.
And the drop of blood essence that came from the outside made him understand that someone was using the "Blood Sacrifice Technique" to save his life. He did not have the time to think about who had saved him. His consciousness calmed down and he began to silently practice the "Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis".
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
When Tan Xiu's eyelashes trembled and he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Xiaoxue sitting cross-legged in front of him, holding her chin and looking at him without blinking.
Could it be that she had saved him?
Tan Xiu's expression slightly changed. A hint of a smile appeared on his still slightly pale face. He blinked at Gu Xiaoxue and asked in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Did you use the Blood Sacrifice Technique to save me?"
Gu Xiaoxue's expression slightly froze when she saw Tan Xiu open his eyes. When she saw Tan Xiu blink and heard Tan Xiu's words, she immediately cried out in pleasant surprise, "Grand Master, you're finally awake? I thought it would take a long time for you to wake up! I used the Blood Sacrifice Art because I discovered that Grand Master's body rejected the True Essence I cultivated. "
It really was her!
Tan Xiu secretly sighed inwardly and smilingly said, "The cultivation technique I'm currently practicing is a bit special, so it repels the True Yuan of others. Therefore, it's impossible to use True Yuan to heal me. Xiaoxue, I really want to thank you this time. If you didn't use the Blood Sacrifice Technique, I'm afraid I would've died. "
Gu Xiaoxue raised her small face and smilingly said, "It's what I should do, Grand Master!"
Tan Xiu nodded and looked around. He found that he was still in the side room where Tang Guosheng was being treated. But there was no trace of Tang Guosheng at this moment. The smile on his face faded a lot and he asked in a low voice, "Where are we now?"
"The Tang Family in the Imperial Capital," answered Gu Xiaoxue.
"How did you find us?" Tan Xiu was surprised.
"The Tang Family has been spreading the news and promised countless doctors in the outside world that they would pay any price if anyone could cure you," said Gu Xiaoxue. "The Chen Family's Patriarch contacted Martial Uncle Chen, who then called Ouyang Lulu. She happened to be a guest in our Everlasting Feast Hall, so I knew about it."
The Tang Family …
Tan Xiu furrowed his brows and immediately relaxed.
Any price?
Such a promise was too heavy!
Despite the fact that Tan Xiu was still a bit repulsed by the Tang Family, he had to admit that the Tang Family did regard him as a true family member. Now, he finally believed that what Tang Guosheng said in the past was true. They had indeed looked for him and his mother.
"There's no point in persisting pointlessly."
"Since the Tang Family really regards me and Mother as family, then let nature take its course!"
"The time is too short. We'll see how it goes in the future."
"Those titles are meaningless. The most important thing is to see how we get along in the future!"
"I can't make things difficult for Mother!"
"..."
Thoughts flashed inside Tan Xiu's mind. He floated up and got out of bed. After putting on his shoes, he looked at Gu Xiaoxue and asked, "How did you and Ouyang Lulu come here?"
"It's Ouyang Lulu's private jet," answered Gu Xiaoxue.
"What about Ouyang Lulu?" asked Tan Xiu again. "Where is she now?"
Gu Xiaoxue shook her head and said, "I don't know. I haven't left this side room for three days. But she's very concerned about you. She should still be in the Tang Family! "
Tan Xiu nodded. When he opened the door and walked out with Gu Xiaoxue, the dozens of Tang Family members gathered outside looked ecstatic. Su Lingyun even threw herself into Tan Xiu's arms and cried tears of joy.
"I'm fine, Mom."
Tan Xiu let out a faint smile and gently patted her back to comfort her.
At the side.
Sitting in a wheelchair, Tang Yunde's movements were still a bit inconvenient. His thin face was full of excitement as he stared at Tan Xiu. No one had a more complicated mood than him. It was as though a bottle of five flavors had been knocked over. Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty feelings flooded his heart at the same time.
However …
What filled Tang Yunde's heart the most was guilt.
Being born without raising one's father!
It would've been fine if it was only this. But his son almost lost his life to save him. This made him, who was once unyielding and unyielding, unable to utter a single sound.
Tang Guosheng, who stood next to Tang Yunde, raised his hand and gently patted his shoulder. His eyes moved from Tan Xiu to Gu Xiaoxue and said with gratitude, "Miss Gu, I really want to thank you. You saved my grandson's life. No matter what wish you have, as long as my Tang Family can achieve it, you will absolutely be satisfied. "
"Saving my Grand Master is my duty. I don't have any wish, and I don't need the Tang Family to repay me," said Gu Xiaoxue calmly.
Tan Xiu gently pushed Su Lingyun away and wiped the tears on her face. His eyes then shifted to Tang Guosheng and Tang Yunde before finally landing on Qin Changyue, whose face was full of excitement and tears. Then, he calmly said, "Grandma, I'm hungry. Tell someone to prepare something for me!"
Grandma?
Qin Changyue was stunned. An incredulous expression appeared on her tearful face, but in an instant, it was replaced by ecstasy. She felt like she was dreaming. Because Tan Xiu, who had always rejected the Tang Family and was unwilling to admit that he was his grandson, had unexpectedly opened his mouth to call her grandma.
"Great, great, great. Grandma … Grandma will personally cook for you."
The other members of the Tang Family also looked pleasantly surprised. Tan Xiu's address meant that he finally recognized the Tang Family and their clansmen.
As Qin Changyue left, Tan Xiu looked at Tang Yunde again and calmly said, "Dad, since you've woken up, let's go back to Star City after the meal! My mom has been waiting for you for 20 years. I hope you won't let her down again. "
Tang Yunde was touched by Tan Xiu's address. Tears streamed down his cheeks. He heavily nodded and seriously said, "Rest assured, I'll use the rest of my life to compensate you and your son."
Half an hour later …
Tan Xiu and Gu Xiaoxue had eaten and drunk to their heart's content.
Qin Changyue sat next to Tan Xiu as she watched Tan Xiu eat most of the food she cooked. A sense of satisfaction rose in her heart. The moment Tan Xiu put down his chopsticks, she quickly asked, "Grandson, are you full?"
Tan Xiu nodded and said, "I'm full!"
Qin Changyue nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "If you're willing to eat Grandma's cooking, Grandma will cook for you every day."
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "Grandma, I have an important matter to deal with. I need to go to Jingmen Island, and then I'll go abroad. Wait for me to come back. If the University of Shanghai hasn't started yet, I'll come over. "
"You're going abroad?" Qin Changyue was surprised.
Tan Xiu nodded and didn't explain further. He turned to look at Tang Guosheng and said, "Grandpa, we'll go first."
"Can you go a bit later?"
Tang Guosheng asked.
"Is there something else?" Tan Xiu asked.
Tang Guosheng said, "Since you've come back, I'm going to let you worship the ancestors tomorrow and leave the names of you and your son in the family tree. If you have something to do, you can leave tomorrow after the worship. "
Tan Xiu pondered for a moment before he slowly nodded and said, "Alright! I'll have to trouble you to arrange a place to stay! Xiaoxue and Lulu as well. "
"No problem!"
Tang Guosheng looked happy and immediately replied.
At night!
Tan Xiu, Gu Xiaoxue, Ouyang Lulu, and even Chen Zhizhong and Long Zhengyu all stayed at the Tang Family. Tang Yunpeng personally booked a hall in a nearby upscale restaurant and arranged eight tables to celebrate Tang Yunde's awakening and Tan Xiu's safety.
