Chapter 145 - 143: No Wound, Dense Fog
"Did the Uncle-Master give elder sister an Immortal Pill to consume? When I came back from the Ghost Gate Pass, was it also because I took an Immortal Pill?" Shen Qinghe couldn’t help but ask.
Dongfang Wuya walked over and sat down beside Shen Qinghe, "You were someone this lord spent a fortune to save, so you must cultivate diligently. Shen Zhiyao is fine now, her Golden Core is just damaged and needs about a month to recuperate properly. Once her Golden Core is restored to its original state, she will be as lively as a dragon."
"Thank you for saving elder sister’s life, Uncle-Master," Shen Qinghe said, lowering her head awkwardly, "I seem to always cause trouble for Uncle-Master."
If it hadn’t been for his help this time, her elder sister might have died in this inexplicable way.
"Although Shen Zhiyao’s temperament is not pleasing and she is not a good one, her love for you is genuine. Just now, this lord checked and found not a single wound on Shen Zhiyao’s body. Besides, it happened during the day, and it is unlikely that disciples from other sects would enter Sky Pole Sect to harm others in broad daylight. Unless there was an accident, it must have been a disciple from Sky Pole Sect who injured Shen Zhiyao. Unfortunately, Shen Zhiyao was too severely injured to wake up anytime soon, so we can’t ask her," Dongfang Wuya said seriously.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Qinghe suddenly asked, "If elder sister was injured by the Thousand Shadows Divine Sword, would there be a wound?"
"The Thousand Shadows Sword is an Ancient Divine Sword; logically, if one was stabbed by it, the wound couldn’t be concealed. What, do you suspect Nan Sheng stabbed Shen Zhiyao?" Upon saying this, Dongfang Wuya frowned, "That doesn’t make sense. It is impossible to have no wound if injured by an Ancient Divine Artifact, not even a miraculous healing medicine in the Immortal Realm could do that."
The killing power of the Thousand Shadows Divine Sword was imaginable; how could Nan Sheng have dealt with Shen Zhiyao’s sword wound in such a short time after stabbing her?
Even Shen Zhuo, who was injured by the Changsheng Sword, had a wound, let alone Shen Zhiyao?
This was illogical.
Shen Qinghe felt quite bewildered. She knew it was illogical, and given Shen Zhiyao’s Cultivation Base, even Nan Sheng could not hurt her easily.
