"... I understand."
Liu Xiaojiang turned to look at Shen Chong, who was standing in front of the door. He did not care whether Wang Zhenqiu was watching him or not. He immediately walked slowly to Xia He's bed, lowered his head, and looked at the woman with lifeless eyes.
"Xia He, it's been hard on you. Although you couldn't stop the other party, you've done well enough. You didn't betray my trust in you..."
Hearing this,
A complicated look flashed across Xia He's lifeless eyes. She sat up against the headboard with difficulty. When she spoke, she seemed to have returned to her usual indifferent appearance. However, if one looked closely, one would find that there was still an unconcealable sense of loss in her eyes.
"Sect Leader, do you think that blockhead Zhang Lingyu will accept the past as I originally wanted him to when I've already become like this..."
As soon as she said this,
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little heavy. Shen Chong, who knew about Xia He and Zhang Lingyu's past, pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his hand again. It seemed that he was also using the reflective lenses to hide the sympathy in his eyes for Xia He's encounter.
"I have to say..." Liu Xiaojiang looked down at Xia He, who could not hide her disappointment, and shook his head with a calm and normal expression.
"With that blockhead Lingyu, even if you didn't encounter such a thing, you wouldn't have become like this. If you want him to accept the past with you... more or less, it will take some time."
"F * ck, you're so straight..." Wang Zhenqiu obviously could not bear to see this. "Can't you comfort her a little? Can't you see that what she needs the most now... is actually everyone's comfort?!"
"What's the use of comforting her..." Liu Xiaojiang looked back at Wang Zhenqiu, then looked again at Xia He, who had lost her arms, and said,
"Since it has already happened, instead of living in the sympathy and comfort of others, it's better to accept the reality of what happened to you..."
"..." Shen Chong.
He was speechless at Liu Xiaojiang's words, but he had to admit that Liu Xiaojiang's words were true.
If Xia He could not accept reality, she would not be able to survive even if she had other people to comfort her, unless her most important person, Zhang Lingyu, was willing to stay by her side and take care of her. However, because of Zhang Lingyu's personality, this was impossible to do in a short period of time.
Furthermore …
Xia He didn't want Zhang Lingyu to know about this. She didn't want Zhang Lingyu to accept the past out of sympathy and stay by the side of a useless woman like her …
However,
Liu Xiaojiang shouldn't be the one to say such realistic words because Xia He ended up in such a pitiful state because she was trying to help Liu Xiaojiang …
As expected …
When Xia He heard Liu Xiaojiang's words, even though he knew that Liu Xiaojiang was telling the truth, he still smiled bitterly. His originally lifeless eyes became even more empty.
Seeing this …
Wang Zhenqiu also shook his head helplessly and said, "Although that's the case, aren't you being too distant …"
"You guys seem to have misunderstood something …" Liu Xiaojiang noticed the expression on Shen Chong's face and immediately looked at the two of them in surprise. Then, he calmly spoke as if he was stating the truth.
"Since Xia He ended up like this because she was trying to help me, of course I won't sit back and watch my own people continue to be dispirited. If it was the original me, I might feel helpless in this situation, but to the current me … other than life and death, everything can be changed."
"It's just a broken limb regenerating. Such a small injury … I can immediately make you as good as new."
As soon as he finished speaking …
Just as the other three people in the room were still in a daze,
Liu Xiaojiang immediately extended his palm towards Xia He. Then, a black arm formed from Qi gradually gathered and extended from his palm. He pressed it directly on Xia He's forehead.
"Xia He, don't resist in your heart. Otherwise, it will take a lot of effort …"
Hearing this …
Although Xia He still had a lot of doubts in his heart, he didn't think that Liu Xiaojiang would deceive a cripple like him. He suppressed all the doubts in his heart and hoped that he could really be as good as new.
The next moment …
Under Shen Chong and Wang Zhenqiu's puzzled gazes …
The bandage on Xia He's shoulder gradually fell off, and a large amount of granulation began to appear on the scabbed wound. It gradually grew and twisted together, finally forming two perfect arms …
A moment later …
The black hand that Liu Xiaojiang pressed on Xia He's forehead gradually dissipated. Then, he looked at Xia He, who was staring at his hands in a daze, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, the strength of your 'Life' is not low to begin with. The regenerated arms shouldn't cause you any discomfort. In the future, when you use your abilities again, it will be no different from before …"
"As expected, for the current me, even if I don't use the transformation method, a broken limb is only a small injury. At most, it might be the same as a scratch on an ordinary person's skin …"
"That's not right. Even if it's the so-called transformation, theoretically speaking, if you lose your severed arm, it's impossible to regrow a severed limb …"
"This … this …" Xia He looked at his hands that were as good as new. His originally empty eyes were filled with disbelief. He didn't expect Liu Xiaojiang to be able to 'regrow flesh and bones'.
At this moment, Shen Chong finally reacted. The dissatisfaction he had with Liu Xiaojiang had completely disappeared. In addition to doubts and puzzlement in his eyes, there was also a strong fanaticism.
"Sect Leader, what exactly is going on? You can actually regrow Xia He's severed limbs. This is simply …"
"Is it the Eight Wonder Skills again …" When Wang Zhenqiu saw such an unreasonable thing happen with his own eyes, he naturally associated it with the Eight Wonder Skills, which were beyond the understanding of ordinary people. However, for a moment, he didn't know which of the Eight Wonder Skills it was that could have such a heaven-defying effect.
"You clearly already have Old Master Lu's Heavenly Talisman, and now … that black hand formed by Qi … the hand … and the 'life' you mentioned just now … both 'nature' and 'life' … could it be that this is the so-called 'perfect hand'?"
"…" After healing Xia He's injuries, Liu Xiaojiang turned to look at the only outsider present, Wang Zhenqiu. However, he obviously wasn't going to answer any of Wang Zhenqiu's questions. He only looked at this old acquaintance in front of him, who was relatively troublesome to deal with, and said,
"The matter here is over. The task that Chairman Zhao assigned to you can be considered completed. Qiu 'er … you don't have to worry about my matters anymore. Hurry up and go back to where you came from. The southwest is not going to be peaceful in the future …"
"You know what kind of person I am ~" Wang Zhenqiu shrugged with a grin. He had no intention of leaving immediately.
"Compared to the work that the company arranged for temporary workers, your situation is obviously more interesting. Now you're asking me to go back to where I came from … Is this how you should treat your 'benefactor'?"
Hearing this,
Liu Xiaojiang calmly looked at Wang Zhenqiu for a long time. Then, he slowly said,
"Do you want to die?"
