Chapter 97: Blessing in Disguise
Nezha picked up the fruit core from the ground and handed it to the monk. Wu Xiang, seeing the tooth marks remaining on the core, immediately understood what happened and was suddenly startled.
He turned to look at the red fruits on the tree beside him, unable to recognize what kind of fruits they were for the moment, but the reason for Deng Chanyu’s symptoms was now crystal clear.
"This young lady’s consumption of this fruit has caused her Life Essence Qi to be too exuberant, and yet her own constitution is much too weak. I fear that her body can’t handle such nourishment; if this Essence Qi rampages inside her unchecked, her blood vessels could burst, leading to her death by bleeding from all seven orifices."
"Is it that serious? Monk, what should we do?"
Wu Xiang Monk’s brows were knitted in distress, and with a worried expression he said, "We need to find an outlet for this Life Essence Qi, otherwise, it will run wild within her, and Miss Deng might not last much longer. If it were a cultivator, they could naturally use spiritual sense to channel it through the meridians and acupoints, but all of Miss Deng’s acupoints are blocked..."
The monk felt it was worth a try, but the risk was too great.
If it were his own body, he might have the courage to take this risk, but with someone else’s life, he dared not make the decision.
At this moment, Wu Xiang Monk couldn’t help but think that if he had acted more decisively earlier, or had greater insight, perhaps those he had encountered before might also have had a chance to be saved.
With this thought, his mind wandered momentarily, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably again.
Seeing this, Nezha simply picked up Deng Chanyu and laid her on the grass at the edge of the field, placing the back of his hand on her forehead, which was frighteningly hot.
