Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1853 The Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty 13

Shi Feixuan led Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling into the Pegasus Ranch first. The journey was not peaceful. Even with Wanwan, the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, secretly protecting them, their whereabouts were eventually leaked. Otherwise, how could Shi Feixuan have agreed to ask Jiang Xinxin for help?

Lu Miaozi wasn't unwilling to save people, but saving Xu Ziling was no small matter. Xu Ziling's internal injuries were no longer a concern, but he cultivated extremely yin and cold internal energy. He was seriously injured, and for some reason, Wanwan's equally yin and cold internal energy invaded his body, which led to his great misfortune.

Lu Miaozi could only regretfully say to Shi Feixuan and Kou Zhong, "I myself am helpless regarding this young hero Xu's injuries..."

Kou Zhong couldn't hold back any longer and angrily rebuked Lu Miaozi: "What's wrong with you? Aren't you supposed to be a miracle doctor? How come you said he couldn't be saved after just one pulse check?"

"I went through all those star-gazing and bonfire setups you made before, and now you're saying you can't save anyone?!"

When Lu Miaozi was young, he was quite a figure. His circle of friends consisted of top people of the time, such as Shi Zhixuan, Zhu Yuyan, and Fu Cailin, all of whom were influential figures.

Therefore, he didn't care about Kou Zhong's offense. Instead, he saw Kou Zhong's true feelings for Xu Ziling from Kou Zhong's behavior along the way. In the end, he still said the only solution: "I can't save him, but your internal energy is from the same source as his, so it is very likely that you can save him."

"But I also need to make it clear to you beforehand that although your inner strength comes from the same source, it is ultimately one water and one fire. He is currently seriously injured and cannot withstand the intense, fiery pure yang inner strength in your body. Moreover, this action is extremely dangerous. If things go wrong, you may both lose your lives."

After listening to Lu Miaozi's long explanation, Kou Zhong could only extract the information that "Xu Ziling can be saved." He grabbed Lu Miaozi's arms with great joy: "Senior, just tell me what you need me to do. I have already made a pact with Young Master Ling to live and die together. If I can't save him, then please bury us together!"

However, Lu Miaozi still had concerns, "I have lived in seclusion here for so many years to hide the secret of the Evil Emperor's Tomb. Now that you have been able to find us, it is very likely that Empress Zhu Yuyan is also on her way. I may not have the time to meet you..."

Shi Feixuan quickly said, "Senior, don't worry. If the Yin Gui Sect can come, our Cihang Jingzhai also has helpers. Moreover, I have asked the second young lady of the Song Clan to invite Miss Jiang Xinxin. She can instruct Song Que of the Heavenly Blade Sect on his swordsmanship, which can at least help us hold off the Yin Empress for a while!"

Kou Zhong nodded in agreement. Although he and Xu Ziling had never met Jiang Xinxin, someone whom Shi Feixuan relied on was clearly no ordinary person.

Having witnessed Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling's abilities over the past two days, Lu Miaozi, whose status as the Holy Maiden of Cihang Jingzhai was undoubtedly exceptional, and having also heard about Jiang Xinxin from Shi Feixuan, couldn't help but exclaim, "I've only been in seclusion for twenty years, yet so many young masters have already emerged in the martial world? There's even someone who can instruct Song Que on the Heavenly Blade's swordsmanship?"

Shi Feixuan quickly said, "Of course, Miss Jiang has been traveling the world for more than half a year, but not only Cihang Jingzhai and Yin Gui Sect, but even the four major clans and the Bashu Alliance combined have not been able to find out about her background. This shows how powerful she is."

"So, senior, please tell us how to save Ziling."

After hearing Shi Feixuan's words, and seeing that Kou Zhong also looked anxious, Lu Miaozi had no choice but to say, "My method is also very simple. Kou Zhong will practice your extremely yang and strong internal energy in reverse. In this way, he can draw out the extremely cold internal energy in Young Master Xu's body. You must control the amount of internal energy sent into his body. Just as I said before, he cannot withstand your extremely yang and strong internal energy, so you must be very careful. You must ensure that you draw out his internal energy, but also ensure that it does not cause a backlash to him!"

Kou Zhong felt a sense of danger upon hearing this, but he remained remarkably calm, almost impossibly so. "Please enlighten me, senior."

Seeing that Kou Zhong understood his words, Lu Miaozi finally nodded in satisfaction, stroked his beard, and said, "Of course I will protect you two. Moreover, no one understands better than me when to give and when to receive help."

Kou Zhong quickly thanked her, and Lu Miaozi swiftly prepared the training room. After the three entered the training room, Shi Feixuan stayed outside. She was worried about both her uncle, Master Liaokong, whom she was going back to seek help from, and Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in the room. For the first time, she felt tormented.

Jiang Xinxin and Song Yuzhi found Shi Feixuan during her most agonizing time.

Shi Feixuan looked somewhat haggard today. Sensing someone approaching, she immediately raised her hand to grip her jade flute, becoming alert. Upon seeing that it was Jiang Xinxin, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly greeted her, "So it's Miss Jiang. Shi Feixuan has been rude; please forgive me..."

Jiang Xinxin sensed the movement in the room and lowered her voice to return the greeting, "Miss Shi, you flatter us. We've encountered quite a few people with ulterior motives on our way here. You should be careful."

Although Song Yuzhi received news that the injured person was Xu Ziling, she was still very worried about Kou Zhong's condition and quickly asked Shi Feixuan, "Miss Shi, how is Kou Zhong? Young Master Ling is so badly injured, he must be very anxious and heartbroken..."

Shi Feixuan nodded to Song Yuzhi, glanced in the direction of the room, and then said, "Senior Lu Miaozi is inside instructing Kou Zhong on how to rescue people, but according to Senior Lu Miaozi, Kou Zhong and Ziling are in extremely dangerous condition. If things don't go well, they might both..."

Song Yuzhi immediately looked at Jiang Xinxin, grabbed her, and asked, "Sister Jiang, do you have any ideas?"

Seeing Shi Feixuan looking at her expectantly, Jiang Xinxin smiled wryly, "I don't know anything about the situation, what do you want me to say?"

Shi Feixuan was slightly embarrassed, but still felt that Xu Ziling's injuries were more important, so she told him everything. However, Jiang Xinxin still couldn't determine Xu Ziling's condition and could only analyze based on the existing clues: "If it's due to severe injuries causing uncontrolled internal energy, then Lu Miaozi's method of cautiously using external force to stimulate Xu Ziling's own internal energy is indeed feasible. But if there are other problems, this method will probably only worsen the injuries..."

But it was too late to say anything now. Shi Feixuan could only smile bitterly to herself and explain the situation outside to Jiang Xinxin: "Senior Lu Miaozi is concerned with the whereabouts of the Evil Emperor's Tomb, and the Evil Emperor's Tomb is related to the whereabouts of Shi Zhixuan, the Evil King of the Flower Sect, and the Evil Emperor's Relic. There are many more people in the martial arts world who are interested in these things than just Yin Hou Zhu Yuyan."

"Leaving aside how many people Evil King Shi Zhixuan had grudges against back then, just the fact that the Evil Emperor Relic contains the life-long power of three generations of Evil Emperors is enough to make people in the martial arts world rush to it one after another."

As a young lady of the Song clan, Song Yuzhi practiced martial arts in her daily life, but what she learned was more related to the imperial court. Listening to what Shi Feixuan said, she felt that even if Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were lucky enough to be unharmed today, they probably wouldn't have any peaceful days in the future.
