Chapter 419 - 417: The Solution (4th Update)
"Things have gotten complicated. Based on the development of the Nine Yin Xuan Vein, the initial onset of the disease should occur at twenty, and then gradually intensify. Tingting is already twenty-two, and if we can’t find the Xuanyin Decision, she absolutely won’t live past twenty-five."
Lu Tianxing’s complexion turned unsightly. Although those with the Nine Yin Xuan Vein are born with a rare talent for cultivation, able to achieve in a few years what ordinary people can’t in decades,
there is a saying that what is gained must be lost. The Nine Yin Xuan Vein can indeed allow one to reach realms unattainable to ordinary people in the shortest time, but it also comes with fatal danger. It begins to erupt in the bearer at the age of twenty, and while each eruption is not life-threatening, the suffering is unbearable for an ordinary person, getting worse each time until after five years, at the age of twenty-five, it fully erupts, freezing the bearer into an ice block.
The only solution is to cultivate a cold-attributed cultivation technique to guide and refine this cold energy into one’s own strength, and so far, the only technique that can truly solve this is the Xuanyin Decision.
"Lu Tianxing, why aren’t you saying anything? What’s wrong with Tingting? If it’s really serious, let’s transfer her to a hospital abroad immediately for treatment."
Bai Zhiqing, seeing Lu Tianxing’s ever-changing expressions, felt her heart lurch. Having spent time with Yue Tingting, she had come to see her as her own little sister. Although Lu Tianxing hadn’t said a word so far, his silence was exactly what made it even more heart-wrenching.
"Lu Tianxing, is it a matter of money? How much would it cost to treat Tingting’s illness?" Bai Zhiqing asked anxiously.
"Wife, it’s not a matter of money; it’s Tingting’s own body constitution that’s the problem."
Lu Tianxing shook his head. If it was an illness, that would be easier to handle. The Netherworld Mercenary Corps lacked nothing but money. The key issue was that Yue Tingting’s illness was caused by her own bloodline constitution, and even a blood transfusion would be futile. Her body would regenerate the Nine Yin Xuan Vein on its own.
