Tang Wutong clenched her fist as she turned around and peered into the night sky. She stuck her tongue out at the sky and asked herself â Tang Wutong, whatâs wrong with you? Why are you missing that person? Donât tell me that youâre jealous? Why? Just because he saved me? No, I canât be like that. Heâs just an ordinary person. Furthermore, he already has a lover. So what if heâs outstanding? Heâs not particularly handsome either! Sleep, go and sleep!
As she talked to herself, she started to walk towards her tent. However, she was walking very slowly.
Early morning. The Immortal Doctor Douluo was delighted as she came to Huo Yuhaoâs tent and checked on his condition once again.
Just as she had expected yesterday, she managed to breakthrough the bottleneck that she had been facing for years after absorbing Huo Yuhaoâs pure life energy.
She rose from Rank 95 to Rank 96. It wasnât easy. It had taken her close to sixty years! However, she had finally achieved this step. Huo Yuhao was undoubtedly responsible for this.
This was why she came in the early morning. Even though she didnât need to perform any treatment on him, she still had to try her best to prevent him from suffering any problems during his recuperation process. It was a form of gratitude towards him.
Huo Yuhao was in a stable condition. His broken passageways were slowly recovering, and he was recovering at a quick rate overall. Apart from the immense life energy in his body, there was another important reason for his speedy recovery. It was that his passageways immediately froze up in place after they were damaged. They didnât shift or change their positions at all. As they remained still, they played a very critical role in his recovery.
Ye Guyi didnât sleep the entire night. As she saw the Immortal Doctor Douluo silently nodding as she checked up on Huo Yuhao, she couldnât help but ask, âElder Immortal Doctor, how is Yuhao? Will he be fine?â
Wang Xianâer glanced at her and was amused as she said, âYoung lady, the more concerned you are, the more disorderly youâll be. In terms of emotions, you have to work harder. Thereâs some kind of pent-up gas in you. I assume it has something to do with him? I can sense that your martial soul comes from the same origin as mine. Alright, I shall lend you a hand.â
As she spoke, the Immortal Doctor Douluo lifted her left hand and gently pressed on Ye Guyiâs chest.
Suddenly, Ye Guyi sensed a gust of refreshing soul power entering her body. Her entire body seemed to have cleared up. She felt indescribably comfortable after that. If not for the fact that Huo Yuhao was sleeping, she would shout into the sky.
âMedicine can cure diseases. But matters of the heart canât be resolved through medicine. Young lady, I can tell that you really like him. Why? Youâre so pretty. Isnât he satisfied?â Wang Xianâer retracted her left hand and touched Ye Guyiâs head.
Ye Guyi felt much better after the knot in her heart was untied. As she looked at the benevolent look in the Immortal Doctor Douluoâs eyes, her eyes turned red, and she gently shook her head. She said, âHe already has someone he likes. I donât blame him. Perhaps Iâm only in love with the fact that heâs so persistent towards love.â
The Immortal Doctor Douluo sighed and said, âYoung people! Itâs difficult to tell what love is. I was the same when I was young. Itâs just that loving someone doesnât mean possessing that person. Furthermore, there are other things to like and admire in this world. Thereâs nothing wrong with liking him. Just donât be too stubborn. Otherwise, youâll only feel depressed your entire life. You must learn to let go, understand?â
âYes. Thanks for your advice, elder.â Ye Guyi gently nodded. However, she couldnât help but turn her gaze towards Huo Yuhao.
Wang Xianâer smiled slightly. She knew that she couldnât fully convince Ye Guyi in just a few words, especially when it came to matters of the heart. However, she could tell that she wasnât a stubborn person. Otherwise, the pent-up gas in her body would be even worse.
âHe should be fine. However, heâll still need time to recover, since his passageways have been so seriously damaged. If I started healing from the start, Iâd need at least half a year to fully heal him. I canât even guarantee that there wonât be any side effects. His entire cultivation might even be disabled. However, his life energy is too strong. He must have experienced something special, and is thus able to recover on his own. In my opinion, he should be fine in at most ten days. Iâve got to say that this is a miracle.â
âRecover in ten days? Thatâs fantastic.â Ye Guyi couldnât help but cheer.
At this moment, the curtains to the tent opened, and Nan Qiuqiu walked in.
âWhatâs so great? Is Yuhao fine?â Nan Qiuqiu quickly walked to Ye Guyiâs side and looked at Huo Yuhao. Seeing that he was still the same as the night before, she revealed a disappointed look on her face.
The Immortal Doctor Douluo laughed, âYet another one. There are so many guys out there. Why do all of you fall for the same guy? Thereâs no future. Isnât it more painful? However, you arenât that bad. At least you donât have a mental knot because of your crush for him.â
Nan Qiuqiuâs face turned red, and she said, âElder, donât make fun of me. I donât like this guy. Itâs Sister Guyi who likes him.â
The Immortal Doctor Douluo laughed, âIâm old, but Iâm not blind. If I canât even tell that you like him, wonât I have lived the last two hundred years in vain? Alright, alright, I wonât bother with the issues of young people anymore. You can deal with your own problems. Remember, donât touch him. If his passageways move, thereâll be trouble.â
âYes.â Nan Qiuqiu and Ye Guyi hurriedly acknowledged her words.
The Immortal Doctor Douluo left, and both of them looked at each other. Nan Qiuqiu stuck out her tongue at Ye Guyi, who smiled back. After this, both of them turned their attention to Huo Yuhao.
Nan Qiuqiu twisted her lips and said, âWhatâs so good about this guy? Who likes him? Hmph! Heâs always so mysterious. Heâs not even twenty, but he acts like a forty or fifty-year-old man.â
Ye Guyi was amused as she looked at her. âWhy do I recall someone mentioning before that she likes guys who are more mature and capable?â
Nan Qiuqiuâs face turned red, and she said, âIs that so? Who said that? Whoâs that person with such low taste?â
Ye Guyi laughed. âAlright, itâs not you.â
Her smile gradually faded away. As she looked at Huo Yuhao, she softly said, âElder Immortal Doctor said that we should let go. He wonât belong to us. I can actually sense that heâs in pain.â
âWhat? Heâs in pain? So many of us like him. Furthermore, heâs the future Hallmaster of the Sea Godâs Pavilion. He also holds an important position in the Tang Sect too. Heâs even the in-name Master of the Spirit Pagoda. Heâs so decorated. Whatâs there to feel pain over?â
Ye Guyi glanced at her and said, âNow you finally admit that you like him. Heâs actually in pain. I can sense it. Everything that youâve mentioned is his achievements. However, have you ever thought of the amount of pressure he has to bear because of these achievements? It was still fine in the past, but ever since Dongâer went into a coma, his emotions were greatly affected. After this mission, I even feel that he seems to be less composed than before. If this were the past, he wouldnât have taken such a huge risk. Last night, I finally understood that maybe he doesnât want to live anymore. This was why he was willing to take such a huge gamble. Only he knows how painful he feels.â
Nan Qiuqiu furrowed her brow and asked, âIsnât that Tang Wutong Wang Dongâer who has lost her memories? Didnât everyone claim that?â
Ye Guyi rolled her eyes and said, âFor goodnessâ sake, can you be more observant? Havenât you realized that Huo Yuhao has been very ceremonious towards Tang Wutong? Heâs so polite that it feels as if they are strangers. Sheâs not even as close to him as we are. What does that mean? Given his character, would he act like that if Tang Wutong was really Wang Dongâer? He must have used some method to verify that Tang Wutong isnât actually Wang Dongâer. This is why heâs acting like this. Itâs also since then that I felt that his emotions have become a little abnormal.â
After hearing her words, Nan Qiuqiu stuck out her tongue and said, âHmm, it seems so. If that Tang Wutong isnât Wang Dongâer, where can Wang Dongâer be then? Actually, I feel that we probably donât even stand a chance even if Wang Dongâer is dead. This fellow is too stubborn. He only loves Wang Dongâer. Wang Qiuâer looked so alike to Wang Dongâer and sacrificed so much for him, but even that didnât change his heart.â
Ye Guyi said, âThis is why we should let go. Letâs keep this as a beautiful memory. We are from different worlds. I only hope that he can find Dongâer soon, and start to feel happy once again.â
Nan Qiuqiu gave Ye Guyi a weird look, âSister Guyi, I suddenly feel that youâre very noble.â
Ye Guyi chuckled and replied, âWhatâs there to be noble about? If I stood even the slightest chance, Iâd do my best to fight for it. I wouldnât even bother with my face. However, youâve said it. We have no chance at all. In that case, we can only wish him the best.â
Outside the tent, a person was quietly standing there. She had already come ever since the Immortal Doctor Douluo left, but she didnât enter the tent. She only eavesdropped on Nan Qiuqiu and Ye Guyiâs conversation. When she heard to this point, she turned around and silently walked off. For some reason, she started to feel slightly lonely deep in her heart.
Nan Qiuqiu took over from Ye Guyi to keep watch over Huo Yuhao until lunchtime, when the next change was made. Jiang Nannan replaced Nan Qiuqiu. After that, it was Jing Ziyan. Jing Ziyanâs shift lasted until nighttime.
âWutong, rest for two hours after dinner before replacing Ziyan. Do you have any questions?â Xu Sanshi asked Tang Wutong.
