Chapter 3996: Unbearable to look at

Zhu Bajie turned his head slowly with a mournful face to look at Sun Wukong not far away.

"Senior Brother is at a critical stage of his breakthrough; we cannot disturb him now."

Sha Wujing replied.

"Then tell me, what should we do!" Zhu Bajie was anxious.

Zhu Bajie suddenly felt that he had already done something wrong.

Deep within his heart, he was filled with profound self-reproach.

To him, this matter was indeed handled incorrectly.

Originally, he thought that by giving the best things in his possession to Ling'er, it would surely bring about a great improvement.

But now, he no longer thought so in his heart.

Sha Wujing, however, shook his head.

"Even if Eldest Senior Brother could help us,"

"he is, after all, only at the cultivation base of a Golden Immortal."

"There is truly no way to resolve this problem in a short amount of time."

Sha Wujing sighed helplessly, a look of regret appearing on his face.

He suddenly felt that Xue'er was truly too miserable to have encountered such a great predicament.

Yet, relying on his own strength, he truly could not change anything, and thus Sha Wujing felt somewhat distressed in his heart as well.

"You should at least think of a way."

Zhu Bajie could not help but urge him; he was now as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"Unless Wu Feng can rush back now, otherwise we really have no way to solve this problem."

Sha Wujing thought carefully and had an idea.

When Zhu Bajie heard this, he shook his head helplessly.

"Wu Feng has been out for a very long time, and we cannot even sense his presence."

"If he could truly perceive the crisis Ling'er is currently facing, he would certainly appear in an instant."

Zhu Bajie understood this matter quite well, but now he truly could not change anything.

Because these poisonous gases could indeed sense anyone's aura; this point was obvious to everyone.

It was because of this point that Zhu Bajie's heart became so distressed.

"If Brother Lin really meets with some misfortune, how am I supposed to answer to Wu Feng?"

Zhu Bajie clenched his fists tightly, his heart becoming incomparably agitated.

Although Zhu Bajie realized the severity of the problem at this moment, there was no such thing as a regret pill in this world.

At this very moment, Zhu Bajie was already extremely regretful.

But even so, he could not change anything.

All of this was caused by him.

Although Sha Wujing felt some resentment in his heart,

he knew that saying more was useless.

Now, they could only try their best to draw out the bitter power within Xue'er's body; doing so could alleviate Xue'er's pain.

But as for whether they could protect Xue'er, that was hard to say.

Because of this day,

Zhu Bajie had remained silent throughout.

Aside from maintaining silence, he had no better choice.

As for Sha Wujing, he felt he had already done his best.

Now, to change all of this, they could only hope for a miracle to occur.

Otherwise, nothing could be changed.

As time passed,

the look of pain on Xue'er's face became increasingly obvious.

However, her vitality was becoming increasingly hot.

Moreover, her meridians had already developed many cracks.

If these meridians were to snap, then Xue'er's lifelong cultivation would be gone.

To want to cultivate again would be an almost impossible task.

Unless there were some Saint-level cultivators who could remodel her meridians and repair them,

otherwise, the problem would become very serious. ===== CHAPTER 3998 =====
