Chapter 297: Saving You Feng_1
Having identified the cause, Dugu Zixi released his grip and said gravely to him, "You’re not poisoned! It’s the bead within your body that is wreaking havoc. It’s constantly draining the life force from you. If this continues, in less than three years, you’ll be dead!"
In less than three years, you’ll be dead!
Hearing Dugu Zixi’s last two sentences, You Feng felt as though he had been struck by a sledgehammer, instantly feeling a piercing pain wrapping around his heart.
What he had tirelessly pursued was immortality, the ascension to the Fairy Realm.
Yet now, Dugu Zixi tells him if he doesn’t cure his ailment, he has only three years to live—how ridiculous, how ironic.
You Feng looked at Dugu Zixi, asking in a deep voice, "Then what should I do? How can my illness be cured?"
When he spoke those words, his throat felt dry, his voice husky.
Dugu Zixi replied indifferently, "Simply remove the bead from within your body, continue your cultivation, and slowly you should recover."
You Feng instantly gazed at Dugu Zixi, a glint of suspicion flashing in his eyes, "This bead, I risked my life to obtain it, must it really be removed?"
Dugu Zixi let out a proud and cold laugh, "I’m merely suggesting. Whether you remove it or not is up to you! Zixi and I have no desire for your useless trinket!"
