Isn’t this what you wanted to see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mocking smile appeared on her lips, not believing that Cheng Ruonan was remorseful, just regretting not being able to harvest the spiritual energy within her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! I didn’t!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan was somewhat agitated, grasping Murong Wan’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wan’Er, I admit I wanted to use you to absorb spiritual energy before, but I didn’t know the Gathering Spirit Technique would cause so much harm to your body. I never wanted you to die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Murong Wan lacked the strength to shake off her hand but turned her face away, staring straight at Yang Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yang Cheng, am I dying soon? I’m still so young, not married or with children, I really don’t want to die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Murong Wan let out a bitter smile, and then tears began to fall like beads breaking off a string.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could clearly feel her life force slipping away, losing strength bit by bit, her consciousness slowly growing murky, even the people in front of her were getting blurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m here, there’s no way I’m letting you die, don’t worry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng’s voice was gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Murong Wan gently nodded, then fell into a half-comatose state, unable to muster the energy to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ms. Ruonan, later I’ll first inject True Qi to protect her heart meridian, and you act immediately to remove the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal from her body.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan hurriedly agreed, looking at Murong Wan with eyes full of worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was so foolish back then, the Sect Leader said the Gathering Spirit Technique had no impact, so she deceived Murong Wan into cultivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s only right for Murong Wan to hate her now, if it were herself, she wouldn’t forgive such a master either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng immediately activated his cultivation technique, continuously pouring True Qi into Murong Wan’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now it’s vital to protect her heart meridian and stabilize her vital signs, or else she wouldn’t last until the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal is removed, she’d exhaust her Essence Qi and perish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Murong Wan’s body seemed like a bottomless pit, he injected so much True Qi, yet only barely managed to protect her heart meridian, not enough to awaken her at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now’s the time to act, it has to be quick.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng quickly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan nodded, extended a hand, placing it above Murong Wan’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seconds later, a faint pink lotus mark appeared on her white collarbone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the True Qi in Cheng Ruonan’s palm grew stronger, the mark’s color deepened, gradually turning dark red, flashing with a seductive glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unconscious Murong Wan felt pain, her brows furrowed tightly, and pained whimpers escaped her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That seductive lotus mark grew increasingly vivid, emitting a cold and eerie aura that gave everyone in the room an involuntary shudder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan knew Murong Wan’s body was extremely weak at this moment, so there’s no room for error in removing the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face turned serious, continuing to channel her inner True Qi, trying to extract the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng’s eyes watched the lotus mark, noticing it gently spinning, emitting a red and eerie power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to what is recorded in the \"Tome of the Ghost Doctor\", once the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal is planted inside, it merges with the soul, others cannot destroy the mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Cheng Ruonan, who initiated it, it shouldn’t be too difficult, yet why hasn’t it been done despite consuming so much time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng pondered silently, but didn’t ask aloud, for fear of interrupting Cheng Ruonan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another five minutes passed, still with no changes, while beads of sweat trickled from Yang Cheng and Cheng Ruonan’s foreheads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Continuously consuming True Qi without a moment’s recovery left them both unable to sustain much longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Cheng Ruonan, she was merely at the Qi Refining Realm, completely unable to withstand such massive consumption.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ms. Ruonan, you should stop for now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng finally couldn’t help but speak, though he continued steadily pouring True Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Cheng Ruonan promptly ceased, her body swaying, almost collapsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ruonan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Qiyue hurriedly rushed to hold her, helping her sit at the bedside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did it turn out like this, removing the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal shouldn’t be so difficult, but I just tried so hard, and the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal just wouldn’t come out, why on earth?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan was panting, her pretty eyes full of disbelief and panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before planting the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal on Murong Wan, she had tested it on other disciples; whenever she injected True Qi and forcefully peeled off the mark, it could be removed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now her strength was even greater, peeling it off should be easier, why hasn’t the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal had any change at all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Check if there’s any difference with the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal from before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng reminded her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan immediately bent down, scrutinizing the mark on Murong Wan’s collarbone meticulously, ensuring not to overlook any detail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, her pupils contracted, and she exclaimed in alarm: \"It really is different, there’s an extra flame-shaped petal in the center!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An extra petal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng furrowed his brows. He too didn’t understand why, urgently closing his eyes, seeking guidance within the \"Tome of the Ghost Doctor\".\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal is a forbidden technique, detailed in the \"Tome of the Ghost Doctor\". It clearly states the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal would mutate over time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But typically, mutations have prerequisites, like absorbing certain forces or undergoing powerful impacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng pondered carefully, roughly forming a conjecture, then spoke: \"Perhaps she absorbed my essence before, causing the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal within her to mutate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal can mutate too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan’s brows almost knitted together, quickly asking: \"Then what do we do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng was also uncertain, but he promised Murong Wan he’d save her, so he couldn’t break his word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll first use needles to temporarily protect her heart meridian, then the two of us will act simultaneously, jointly peeling off the Soul-Devouring Lotus Seal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s do it your way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan immediately complied, utterly at a loss, she could only follow Yang Cheng’s approach and give it her all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But right now Murong Wan’s body is too weak to endure a second peeling, so we can only succeed once. If we fail, she...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Cheng didn’t continue, but Cheng Ruonan already understood, her hands trembling with panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her so nervous, Yang Cheng quickly reassured: \"With our combined strength, the probability of success is high. I’m just reminding you, no matter what happens later, don’t let yourself get distracted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand, I’ll give it my all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Ruonan bit her red lips, silently praying in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside them, Cheng Qiyue listened to their conversation and suggested: \"Yang Cheng, after you use the needles, I’ll protect her heart meridian. Although my True Qi isn’t as strong as yours, I can still buy her a bit more time, allowing you to act without worry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1181,"2026-06-05T17:45:42.026Z",1,"novelbin.me","ebc34bdee97607c5db4cfd6950c15ca4c72259ed26f6c83821b3f7f9c28c061f","romantic-medical-immortal-chapter-468","romantic-medical-immortal-chapter-466",562,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fromantic-medical-immortal-cover.jpg"]
