Chapter 355: Ling Chuxi’s Diagnosis
“What is your grandfather’s cultivation level?” Ling Chuxi stopped abruptly and asked.
“I’m not too sure, it should be the Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage,” Xiao Tianfan said thoughtfully.
Sure enough, she was right. Ling Chuxi had an answer in her heart. This was not a severe illness, it seemed like something had gone wrong during the transformation of the Battle Qi at the Pinnacle of Great Fulfilment into the Qi of True Essence. She remembered what Mo Shili had told her before, that the danger within this was even stronger than Heavenly Lightning Striking The Body. Feeling the strong movement of the tyrannical Battle Qi which had reached its peak and the mighty spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth in Old Master Xiao’s body, Ling Chuxi finally realized just how great the risk was.
It was also fortunate that Old Man Xiao’s cultivation was solid, if not it would have been exactly like what Mo Shili said – death caused by the meridians bursting would have occurred. However, she reckoned that this unstable situation might not last long.
All those talks about stagnation of yin qi, excessive yang qi, being ill from overwork, and even the Transforming Life Pill – this was simply disregarding human life. Ling Chuxi really wanted to drag those quacks out and give them a good beating. She admitted she was not a qualified medical practitioner, because she was not like those noble doctors that helped the dying and rescued the wounded. However, she definitely would not be like this Master Sun, who due to his own inability to do anything, wanted to euthanize other people. Such an abominable character really made one feel disgusted!
Seeing Ling Chuxi’s expression become solemn, the group of quacks immediately felt delighted.
“Can you tell what it is? Can it be treated?” Master Sun asked contemptuously.
“The old man experienced some trouble in his cultivation. The agitation of Battle Qi in his body has injured his meridians,” Ling Chuxi said simply. These people could not even recognize Old Master Xiao’s true ’cause of disease’. If it was a complicated explanation, they would be even more confused.
“What a joke! Who does not know of Old Master Xiao’s cultivation? How is it possible that he had experienced trouble with his cultivation?”
“Little lady, if you can’t tell what it is, then just admit it. Why bother using such nonsense to deceive us? This is a matter of life and death.” Voices filled with sarcasm and ridicule resounded.
“Hmph. Like I said, you just went to look for a person to put on a show. Trying to impersonate a doctor with looks like that, what a joke! Where did you find this woman?!” Xiao Tianwen laughed sarcastically, her words becoming more vicious. Seeing Ling Chuxi’s beautiful face, she could not help being jealous and hateful towards her.
“The Xiao Family really has such good upbringing,” Ling Chuxi sneered, her cold gaze sweeping past Xiao Tianwen. This unruly little miss really lacked discipline. Her own princess apprentice was considered unruly as well, but when compared to this little miss in front of her, Ling Chuxi truly felt that her unruly apprentice was ten thousand times lovelier. She decided that she would treat her unruly princess apprentice better when she got back.
Xiao Tianwen shivered when Ling Chuxi’s cold gaze swept past her, and she couldn’t help but take two steps back. She looked at Ling Chuxi in terror and before she could speak, Xiao Gaode cut her off.
“Tianwen, shut up! What kind of behavior is this?!” Xiao Gaode was feeling irritated. Looking at his own daughter who was ignorant of the situation, and speaking inappropriately in front of so many outsiders, he rebuked her. No matter what happened behind closed doors, the Xiao Family was still a noble family.
Xiao Tianwen immediately cowered, not daring to speak anymore. She stared at her father with a hurt expression for rebuking her in front of so many outsiders. However, Xiao Gaode did not pay any more attention to Xiao Tianwen. He was feeling very restless and anxious at the moment. Xiao Tianwen glared at Ling Chuxi ruthlessly, her gaze full of unspoken malevolence.
