Chapter 51: The Worth of Destiny, The Lightness of Destiny (II)

Wang Wu actually doesn't think Zhao Xingyue's condition can be saved, but out of humanitarian spirit, even though she is now a monster.

He still thinks he can give it a try.

As for whether she can be revived, anyway first try it; if she can't live then she can't, at least he tried to save her. Moreover, it also lets him practice the Yinji Divine Sect technique he recently learned on a high‑level animal like a human.

【Bone‑setting and Heart‑nourishing Method】

The technique's name is odd, its classification is odd too; it belongs to a special auxiliary technique whose function is to let the internal mysterious Yin true Qi automatically stitch, connect and repair damaged parts when the body is injured.

Of course, all this requires true Qi support; once the true Qi is exhausted, the repair function naturally stops. At the same time, it also demands a certain internal energy reserve, since repair needs resources and cannot create them from nothing.

Nevertheless, it remains a very powerful technique, and it is also a necessary prerequisite for cultivating the Yinji Divine Sect's signature technique 'Yinji True Divine Body'.

Both the Yinji True Divine Body and the Heavenly Demon Vajra Body are transformations of the human body itself, not a change into some other higher‑dimensional existence. Whether called 'Heavenly Demon' or 'Yinji True Divine', they are merely manifestations of one's own interior.

Therefore, these two techniques can complement each other. Techniques that amplify the Yinji True Divine Body can also amplify the Heavenly Demon body, and those that amplify the Heavenly Demon body can also amplify the Yinji Divine Body.

Of course, amplifying techniques of the same attribute works best, after all they are tailor‑made.

As the world's top assassin sect, the Profound Yin Sect, the Yinji Divine Sect, besides being an assassin organization, also specializes in medicine, and in the assassin world has the very famous 'Yinji Medical Technology Group'.

These are the promotional contents written in the technique manual; they appear from time to time, just like the manual of the Extreme Heaven Vajra Sect. Selling supplements, promoting their own industry, selling teaching aids.

It sounds a bit odd; in fact Wang Wu also finds it odd, but that's exactly how the manual says it.

Since he decided to see if he could save the female cultivator, Wang Wu extended two fingers and placed them on the still‑intact spot of her abdomen.

A gentle mysterious Yin force transmitted from Wang Wu's fingertips into Zhao Xingyue's body, then began moving through her blood vessels and meridians, probing her overall condition, performing basic treatment, and bringing a bit of comfort.

In other words, analgesia, making her feel a little better.

Zhao Xingyue clearly felt the influx of energy, then opened her eyes and saw Wang Wu's face; her gaze shifted downward, seeing the two fingers resting on her abdomen.

It was her first time being touched by a man on such a private area; even though she was near death, she still felt a bit embarrassed.

She knew what he was doing; the gentle, slightly cold energy now flowing within her that eased the pain came from the man's two fingers pressed against her side.

After all, none of her senior brothers had ever made such intimate contact, but this monster…

A figure that had once haunted her thoughts resurfaced in her mind, bringing a fleeting sweetness, followed immediately by confusion and sorrow over her beloved.

Enough, enough, Zhao Xingyue closed her eyes and cast away the chaotic thoughts in her mind.

"Thank you." She reopened her eyes, looked at Wang Wu before her, and said softly.

"Oh? You're surprisingly polite." Wang Wu was taken aback, because it was his first time hearing a human thank a monster, or rather, seeing a human treat a monster this way.

In He Dong Xian, the overwhelming majority of humans regard monsters with fear and disgust, roughly equivalent to how people in ancient societies treated lions and tigers.

There are, however, those less fearful or disgusted, such as cultivators; they generally aren't scared, because slaying monsters is part of their duty.

Also, some people are fascinated by female monsters; for example, a certain man surnamed Xi Men from the western gate of He Dong Xian. There are certainly women who are enamored with male monsters, but Wang Wu can't cite an example, because he hasn't encountered any.

"Of course there are monster races that refuse to eat humans and are innately kind. For such kinds, we humans will naturally accept them," Zhao Xingyue said. "Since you intend to save me, regardless of success, I must thank you."

"You're welcome." Wang Wu replied casually, ending his examination of Zhao Xingyue's condition. Then he turned to Wu Er Niang, "Go fetch some spider silk from Third Sister, using silk about as thick as the thread I used to stitch that deer's wound last time."

'Oh.' Wu Er Niang nodded, then rose to leave. But Wang Wu called her back: "Oh right, also bring back the Human Pills I found; the three of you split them."

Speaking, Wang Wu placed those Human Pills into Wu Er Niang's hand.

"Hurry up." Wang Wu said; Wu Er Niang nodded, immediately summoned her monster power and darted toward home, soon disappearing into the forest.

Turning back to Zhao Xingyue, Wang Wu said, "Your dead comrades… ah no, companions, I took all their Human Pills; I left the corpses untouched."

"It's fine… it doesn't matter," Zhao Xingyue shook her head and said, "When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out; it's just a shell. The Human Pills are meant to be taken after a cultivator's death to prevent corpse degeneration. You needn't worry."

"Heh, back to the point, cough cough, you two really are… really affectionate… cough, cough cough…"

Looking at Wang Wu and Wu Er Niang, Zhao Xingyue smiled and began to say more, but perhaps her words triggered something, causing her to cough violently.

Fortunately this time she didn't cough up blood, clearly Wang Wu's basic treatment was effective.

"Out of lives? You're about to die, so stop talking for now." Wang Wu said, then sat beside her, hand again pressing against her side, pouring mysterious Yin true Qi while checking her internal condition in his mind.

He isn't a professional doctor, has no relevant skills, and never received formal surgical training. Yet by following the instructions and video tapes in the technique book, he has actually performed some 'surgeries' over the past month.

All were on animals he hunted for processing, such as suturing huge wounds, reconnecting severed organs like intestines, etc.

He even made missing organs regenerate, accelerating regrowth with the Yinji Divine Sect's unique mysterious Yin true Qi.

Moreover, the Yinji Divine Sect's unique true Qi can even induce regeneration in organs that normally lack regenerative ability, though the speed is slower and it consumes time and effort.

Essentially, if one doesn't cultivate dedicated techniques, this thing is merely an excellent battlefield first‑aid tool, capable of keeping a critically wounded life hanging on for a long time.
