Chapter 160

~8 min read 1,429 words

While transporting life essence and life energy, Shu Yan's spiritual power had also thoroughly investigated the situation of the woman's whole body. The feedback he received made him frown, as if he didn't expect the situation to be so serious.

Life energy has always been the purest and gentlest of all energies. Men, women, old, and young can all absorb it, and the effect is visibly powerful and direct.

Thus, there was such a problem: under what circumstances would a person's body become a pressure and burden even when absorbing life energy? This situation was so bad that Shu Yan couldn't help but feel tricky. He had many healing methods, but these healing methods generally required a prerequisite, which was that the body of the person being healed could still absorb energy, or rather, there was still a possibility of recovery for the vitality in the other party's body.

For example, his previous treatment for the 100,000-year Ice Jade Phoenix Bird A-Luan and even continuing the life of Qian Gu Chao Sheng, these were all based on the premise that the other party's body had not completely decayed and could absorb and refine energy. If a person couldn't even absorb energy, then even if more life energy was injected, it wouldn't have its intended effect. On the contrary, it was highly likely to cause serious consequences.

For example, the damaged body couldn't bear and digest a large amount of life energy, and thus be supported to explode...

And now, Shu Yan's mother, Ruan Qinyu, was in such a situation.

Her body was close to decay, her interior was a mess, even the soul power in her body was less than one in ten, nearly 70% of her internal organs were failing, and her spiritual power was slowly dissipating. According to this rate of disease, if Shu Yan had been a little later, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have been able to see her for the last time.

Regarding Ruan Qinyu's situation, perhaps there is a sentence that can better explain it.

At this time, she was like an empty shell still controlled by a soul. It was the obsession in her heart that supported her to live. Once this obsession dissipated, her life would also dissipate in an instant. For her, every minute and every second of living was torture and suffering.

Ruan Qinyu had completely fallen into a deep sleep. Even in a coma, her brows were still tightly locked. This was a manifestation of pain. Shu Yan looked at her thin, haggard cheeks, and for a moment, his heart felt extremely uncomfortable. He gently wiped away the tears that hadn't had time to flow from the corners of her eyes, then looked up at the Medical Immortal Douluo standing behind the crowd, and said in a deep voice: "Medical Immortal Grandma, please help me see if there is any solution..."

The Medical Immortal Douluo sighed, her old body moved, and she walked slowly to Shu Yan. She leaned down slightly, her fingertips pointing at Ruan Qinyu's brow. The wrinkles on her forehead seemed more obvious, and her expression was also a bit wrong.

"Strange... strange... this... how could it be, this..."

The Medical Immortal Douluo's tone was full of surprise. She had spent her life treating illnesses and saving people, and the difficult and miscellaneous diseases and strange stories she had seen were probably more than the meals Shu Yan had eaten. But now... the situation of Shu Yan's mother, Ruan Qinyu, made even her show a look of confusion and astonishment.

Shu Yan's face sank again, then said: "Medical Immortal Grandma, what did you find?"

The Medical Immortal Douluo's expression was uncertain. She didn't answer Shu Yan's words immediately, but continued to investigate carefully before saying:

"A-Yan, feel your mother's spiritual sea carefully..."

Shu Yan lowered his eyes, and a trace of gentle spiritual power entered Ruan Qinyu's body again, then slowly approached the spiritual sea located in the brain.

After passing through a layer of nearly transparent blue film, the world in front of him changed suddenly. Countless grievances full of evil and bloody aura swept over. Ruan Qinyu's entire spiritual sea was completely black-purple, and the only remaining normal area was being gnawed by a few ferocious grievances.

Shu Yan withdrew that trace of spiritual power, and the expression in his eyes became even heavier. The spiritual sea was full of grievances of dead people or soul beasts. Shu Yan had never seen this situation, but he had heard of it. But no matter what kind of situation it was, it would undoubtedly be related to evil soul masters. And his mother, Ruan Qinyu, was only a Soul Emperor in Su Tong's words, and she was from a Heavenly Soul noble family. And when Shu Yan just investigated her body, it also happened to prove that Ruan Qinyu's cultivation was not high.

The trouble on the body was already extremely tricky, and the problem in the spiritual sea was even more astonishing. Shu Yan's expression was slowly becoming heavy. With him as the center, the temperature within a radius of ten meters was slowly decreasing, and even more terrifying momentum appeared, making those old men couldn't help but show astonishment.

Su Mingxuan stood behind Shu Yan, his eyes full of worry and pain when looking at his wife. He leaned down, then reached out a hand to press on Shu Yan's shoulder. His movements were extremely unfamiliar and stiff. After all, the time he had recognized Shu Yan was too short, and he didn't dare to be too close and casual, fearing that Shu Yan wouldn't be used to it.

He had originally planned to recognize his son first and then take him to see her, and at the same time, he wanted to tell his son something about her. But unfortunately, Ruan Qinyu seemed to have sensed something in her sleep, and because he was too excited, he didn't sense the abnormality on his wife's side in time. Now Ruan Qinyu had fallen into a deep sleep again, which completely disrupted his original arrangements.

"Child, what did you find?"

Su Mingxuan asked softly, and at the same time waved his hand gently toward the old men. The old men exchanged a glance, and also sensed the abnormality. After they looked at Ruan Qinyu with rather complicated eyes, they turned and disappeared into streams of light, completely leaving the space to the few people.

"Why are there such a huge number of grievances and evil energy in my mother's spiritual sea? You... must know something..."

Shu Yan closed his eyes. At the glance of meeting Ruan Qinyu, he felt the surging excitement and regret in the other party's heart like a volcanic eruption. At the same time, it was also an extremely rich maternal love. That gaze contained too much, and it also completely pierced into the soft place in Shu Yan's heart.

Su Mingxuan sighed softly, not in a hurry to answer Shu Yan, but instead said with some emotion: "I heard from A-Yun that you have grown into an unimaginable genius. These years... Mom and Dad were not by your side, and the things back then were all our fault."

"I originally thought that you would complain or even hate us after knowing the truth from your sister, but until the moment of reunion came, I didn't see any hatred or dissatisfaction in your eyes. But no matter what, Qin Yu and I missed your entire youth, and also made you lack the love that should have belonged to you."

"She once told me that if we couldn't reunite with our son in this life, then we would pray for the rest of our lives, wishing him a smooth life, peace and joy, instead of climbing to a higher level by any means in this stormy soul master world like us."

Shu Yan lowered his eyes, then said softly:

"My path is a path of contention. It is impossible to stay in a certain place or field all the time. I will climb up until there is no higher place. This is the path I pursue."

Su Mingxuan patted Shu Yan's shoulder again, and a smile appeared on his face.

"That's fine too. In life, the most important thing is to know why you live. Living in a daze is a kind of torture."

"Okay, now, I want to tell you about your mother's origin and background. After I finish speaking, you should have a bottom in your heart..."
