Chapter 1402
The man looked at Alex with wide eyes. “Would you… would you do that for me?” he asked.
“Your daughter is in a coma. As an alchemist and a doctor, I cannot find it in me to ignore the situation. Especially when it looks like it can not be solved by just the two of you,” he said.
The man immediately bowed. “Thank you, young man,” he said, crying tears. He could tell by now that the young man he had accidentally brought along was no normal person.
He could tell from the start that he was someone special by the way he constantly hid his face in the mask. Which was why he never dared to ask what his name was.
Given that he was good at looking for ingredients, he could also tell that the young man was an alchemist. Given the special treatment he had received in these places where he could move around without having to pay, the young man almost believed he was someone from the Imperial family.
Maybe a person with close relation to his Majesty, and was thus allowed to use the Valley as he pleased.
“We will have to go back to the courtyard I’ve rented in the mountains. Will you come with me?” the man finally asked.
“Of course,” Alex said.
“Let us leave then,” the man said and started walking toward the edge of the 10th field on the 8th row. They could walk outside from there and then could go to where their courtyard was.
If they were anywhere else, they could have to fly up and leave the Valley. Once someone flew above where the guards were floating in their boats, they could not step back into the valley.
The three men arrived outside the Hundred Blossom Valley and quickly made their way toward the Verdant mountain range where the man had rented his courtyard.
He glared at Wu Shun the entire time, more annoyed than angry now. The trip here had been a waste of what they had come here for, but if Alex could save his daughter, he would consider it a success.
However, he found it hard to get his expectations high.
He spoke up to Alex as he needed him to know this before they arrived at the courtyard. “There’s something I haven’t mentioned to you just yet,” he said. “It’s about my daughter’s condition.”
Alex looked at the man. “What do I need to know?” he asked.
“That I am not sure what happened to her,” he said.
Alex frowned. “Didn’t you say she went through Qi Deviation?” he asked.
“Yes… but that is what my wife told me,” he said. “I cannot for certain confirm that she really did go through Qi Deviation.”
“Does he know?” Alex asked, pointing to the young man next to him.
“I know,” the young man replied.
“I’ve told this to everyone I have taken my daughter to get healed,” he said. “But I must tell you, none have succeeded. They all say that they never saw anything like this before. Which is why I’ve been struggling to deal with the problem.”
“He gave me hope saying he could deal with it… but we can’t even find the ingredients to test,” the man said.
“I’m sorry, but I really did believe it would work,” the young man said.
“That’s alright,” Alex quickly told the man. “You were never clear on what happened to your daughter, so I was going to check thoroughly from the start anyway. I will then see if I can deal with it.”
If it worked, that would be amazing. If it didn’t, well… nothing would have changed then.
“Can I ask why your wife hasn’t told you what happened to your daughter truly?” Alex asked. “You don’t have to answer that if you don’t want to.”I think you should take a look at
“She probably did… I just don’t trust her,” the man gave a pitiful look. “It’s not her fault in any way if she did lie, let’s just keep it at that.”
“Okay,” Alex said.
They flew up a mountain and arrived outside an hour and quickly walked in. A few women greeted the man as he came in.
“Is my daughter alright? Has anything changed?” he asked.
“Nothing has changed since you left, my lord,” the woman answered. “We’ve changed the talisman 3 times, and there was no problem.”
“Good,” the man said. “Tell everyone to stay away from that side of the house for a while, please. Then he turned to Alex and called him.
Alex walked with the man, going to the far back of the house, on the other side of the courtyard. They arrived in front of the room and the man opened the door.
Inside the room, on a bed at the center, was the young lady that was in a coma. She had soft white hair, a fair face, and looked incredibly young.
Alex walked into the room to check on her and noticed a dampness in the room that didn’t make sense to him. He continued forward and arrived in front of the girl and looked at her closely.
She wore an entirely white robe and had a talisman on her chest for something that Alex couldn’t immediately tell. What he could tell was that the girl was just in the True King realm, not in the Saint realm as he had expected her to be given that they were searching for a Saint rank plant.
“How old is she?” he asked the man.
“She is…” the man paused for a moment. “25 years old.”
“Oh,” Alex’s eyes widened in surprise. That was very young, much younger than he had been expecting at all.
“Did none of the True rank pills heal her?” he asked the father.
“No,” the man answered. “Even Saint Rank pills did nothing at all. I do not know what is happening to her. Maybe her Yin is too violent.”
Alex nodded a little. He took her hand and tried to see what was wrong with her, but for some reason, he found his Qi obstructed for some reason. He tried to figure out why and realized it was the talisman.
“What’s this talisman for?” he asked.
“To keep her Yin contained,” the father answered.
“Is it okay to remove it?” Alex asked.
“I don’t think it harms her,” the father said. “As long as you are fine with the yin, then it should be okay.”
“I will be okay,” he said and reached for the talisman before ripping it away.
The moment the talisman left her body, the yin that it contained sprung up violently and covered the area. Within moments, the bed was covered in ice and it seeped below them, covering the floor in ice as well.
Within seconds, the temperature in the room dropped by many degrees, making everyone feel cold and desolate in there.
Alex stepped back a little in surprise and so did the other two men. Unlike the two men, however, Alex gulped at the sight he saw before him.
He had seen something like this before. A long time ago.
