"Xiao Zhuang, thank you for saving my life!"
Ye Duzui wanted to sit up, but he didn't have the strength to do so. He knew that if he couldn't get rid of that overbearing dark power, he wouldn't be able to live for long.
Ye Duzui still couldn't believe it after I solved it. But after a preliminary scan, he didn't find any sign of dark power, and even his damaged meridians had recovered a little.
This immediate effect made Ye Duzui very happy. If his body didn't allow it, he would have bowed deeply to me.
"Oh, Senior Ye, don't be so polite. In fact, it's all thanks to your help that I am where I am today." I hurriedly waved my hand. Although I didn't say it explicitly, I was referring to Ye Duzui's magnanimity.
Grandmaster Chen couldn't help but show a gratified smile. Normally, if a martial artist progressed too fast, they would easily become arrogant, which was inevitable. However, I didn't have such a problem. On the contrary, I was neither servile nor overbearing, and I didn't become arrogant or rash.
This is definitely a rare and valuable quality. Not only that, I also know how to repay favors. No wonder I was able to overcome all the obstacles along the way from the barren Cloud City. Even when my name shakes the capital, I still didn't stop!
Then, we chatted for a while. Suddenly, my phone rang. It was Grandfather Li.
"I'm going to take this call." After saying hello, I went to the corridor.
"Xiao Zhuang, I'm sorry to disturb you." Grandfather Li said apologetically.
"Don't say that." Grandfather Li was so polite that I wasn't used to it.
"This call is mainly to ask you when Xiao Yu will wake up …" Grandfather Li didn't beat around the bush.
I suddenly realized that I had almost forgotten about this matter. According to the clues provided by the witch Ye Ji, it seemed that Li Meiyu's soul was in the hands of the Blood Demon. I have to say, this was a very troublesome problem.
However, according to my conjecture, Li Meiyu should still be alive. If the Blood Demon ruthlessly destroyed her, her soul would scatter, and she would become a complete corpse. I'm afraid that even the Gods and Immortals wouldn't be able to save her.
Last time, I carefully checked her body. There was a weak and hidden mysterious power in her body. Moreover, Li Meiyu was still breathing normally. This was enough to prove that her soul wasn't in mortal danger.
However, in order to awaken Li Meiyu, he had to find her soul in order to become one with her.
"Sigh, Old Li, I'm really sorry. I can't give you an exact time right now. However, you don't need to worry. I will try my best," I said solemnly.
"Xiao Zhuang, it's okay to be late. Xiao Yu hasn't been feeling well these days. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on …" Old Li's voice was filled with worry.
"Ah?" My heart thumped. Could it be that the Blood Demon had done something to Li Meiyu?
This seemed to be the only explanation. It was just like the terrifying witchcraft that I had encountered not long ago. Even though the wizard was in a faraway country, he was still able to kill someone from a thousand miles away.
"I'll be right there!"
I hurriedly hung up the phone and returned to the ward. I told Grandmaster Chen and the others that I was going to leave for the Li family.
Ten minutes later, I arrived at the Li family's courtyard. Old Li and his son were waiting at the door to welcome me.
Under Old Li's guidance, I arrived at Li Meiyu's room with ease. It was quite a coincidence. The last time I came to the Li family, it could be said that I killed two birds with one stone. Not only did I give the Japanese Emperor's personal alchemist a severe warning, but I also caught the witch Ye Ji.
It was a pity that I didn't bring the Soul Suppressor with me this time. Otherwise, with the witch Ye Ji's vast knowledge, she would more or less know some things.
As soon as I entered the room, I felt a wave of cold air assaulting my face. It was as if I had entered an icehouse. However, when I turned around, I saw that the air conditioner wasn't turned on. Not only was the radiator working, but there was also a floor-to-ceiling oil heater. The doors and windows were also tightly shut.
My god, under these circumstances, it was as if it was snowing outside. It was really unimaginable.
Of course, my Yi Jinjing had reached the sixth cycle. Although the room was a few degrees below zero, I wasn't affected at all. Old Li and the others were different. They couldn't help but shiver the moment they entered.
"It's even colder than outside." Li Meiyu's father couldn't help but mutter.
Old Li rolled his eyes and reprimanded him. After all, I was a guest, and I didn't mind. As Li Meiyu's father, he shouldn't have said such things.
I waved my hand, and a gentle power instantly protected them. The two of them felt warm and couldn't help but click their tongues in wonder.
"Thank you." Old Li was full of gratitude.
"It's okay."
I shook my head, and my attention fell on Li Meiyu. At this moment, she was covered with a thick blanket, but that cute face was a bit blue from the cold. Especially her delicate eyebrows, there was actually a layer of ice crystals.
"Since the day before yesterday, Xiao Yu hasn't been normal. She's been talking nonsense, as if she's having a nightmare. I can't wake her up. Moreover, the room is getting colder and colder. It's really strange." Old Li hastily said, his face full of worry.
Actually, since Li Meiyu hadn't shown herself for a long time, the outside world had all kinds of guesses. She was an extraordinary woman, and she had brought a lot of honor to the Li family. Not only the people of Jianghu, but even the martial arts sects had invited Li Meiyu.
Old Li knew that her physique was special. If she blindly used this ability, she would die. That was why he didn't want to use it.
Now, Li Meiyu hadn't woken up, and she had fallen into an unprecedented crisis. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. When we were in Zhongnanhai, Old Li had wanted to mention it to me, but it wasn't convenient. After returning home, he hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he still dialed my number. Regardless of whether I had the ability to help Li Meiyu or not, at least he had done his part.
Then, I sat on the edge of the bed. Although I was a few centimeters away from Li Meiyu, I could still feel the cold air. Then, I reached out my hand to check her pulse.
