Chapter 114 At the Cost of Life Force
Chapter 114 At the Cost of Life Force
Seemingly realizing he had been a bit too direct, Tang San quickly added, "Teacher, rest assured, one day I will definitely seek justice for you and prove to the world that you are not the fraudster they claim you are, but a true and genuine theoretical master."
"You actually made your teacher kneel down for you, Tang San, do you know what you're saying?" Flander, Yu Xiaogang's best friend and simp, finally couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to reprimand Tang San.
But Yu Xiaogang stopped him with a raised hand, "No need to say more, Flander, this is my own choice."
As he spoke, he actually put on an act of selfless dedication and knelt down in front of Ye Qinghe with a thud.
"You two are truly a loving and filial master and disciple." Ye Qinghe couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene.
He then said to Zhu Zhuqing, "Zhuqing, wait here for a moment."
As he spoke, Ye Qinghe walked into the warehouse.
Soon, he saw Xiao Wu, who had turned into a roasted rabbit. She was roasted until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and she had survived entirely thanks to the tenacious vitality of a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast.
Ye Qinghe smiled gently, took out the Martial Soul Fusion Card, and stuck it on Xiao Wu's forehead. "System, use the Martial Soul Fusion Card on Xiao Wu."
[Ding, successful use. One month from now, anyone who spends more than an hour with him every day will develop a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.]
"You little rascal, I really look forward to seeing the scene after Xiao Wu's soul merges with someone else's." Ye Qinghe smiled inwardly, and then began to administer acupuncture.
About half an hour has passed.
Ye Qinghe's voice came from inside the warehouse, "Alright, come in, everyone."
Upon hearing this, Flander, Zhao Wuji, Ning Rongrong, Tang San, and Yu Xiaogang entered.
Tang San was carried in by Yu Xiaogang in a princess carry.
The strong sense of déjà vu is... it's just like an old eunuch holding a prince.
Of course, this prince is the prince with wild boar skin.
Seeing that Xiao Wu's breathing had returned to normal and that her clothes showed no signs of being disturbed, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, I've finished administering the acupuncture. All that's left is to apply some burn treatment medicine and use your Sugar Bean Soul Saint's sugar beans. She'll be fully recovered in less than ten days."
At this point, Ye Qinghe couldn't help but marvel once again at the Soul Master's regenerative abilities.
He only needs to use Huayang needles to guide the treatment to achieve unexpected healing effects.
Next, Ye Qinghe continued to treat Oscar Ma Hongjun, who was in a coma.
The two recovered even faster than Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu.
He recovered almost immediately after Ye Qinghe finished administering the acupuncture.
Flander rushed over and helped Ma Hongjun up. "Hongjun, are you alright?"
Ma Hongjun carefully examined his body and, finding nothing amiss, instinctively shook his head, saying, "No...it's nothing..."
"Little Oscar, what about you?" Zhao Wuji helped Oscar up.
Oscar touched his stomach, shook his head, then seemed to remember something and suddenly asked, "Where's Rongrong? How is Rongrong?"
Ning Rongrong's voice came from the side, "I'm fine now."
Seeing that Ning Rongrong was alright, Oscar felt relieved and a knowing smile appeared on his face. "Rongrong, it's so good that you're alright."
"What could possibly happen to me? It's you and Fatty who suffered such serious injuries, yet you recovered so quickly. That bastard really has some skill," Ning Rongrong exclaimed.
"Which bastard?" Oscar was taken aback.
"It's Ye Qinghe." Ning Rongrong pointed to Ye Qinghe, who was treating Dai Mubai.
Oscar's expression turned complicated upon hearing this. He hadn't expected that the one who had cured them would be Shrek's enemy.
At the same time, Ye Qinghe, who was treating Dai Mubai, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, forming a barely perceptible curve.
He really did cure those two bastards.
But there is a price to pay.
Of the two scoundrels, Ma Hongjun was the most seriously injured, much more so than Xiao Wu, as his internal organs were burned by the Phoenix Flame.
Originally, Ye Qinghe was confident in his ability to treat the patient, but it would have taken at least several hours. However, through his desperate use of the Huayang Needles, he directly consumed seven years of Ma Hongjun's life force, allowing him to recover rapidly.
If it can't be cured, then something strange has happened.
Oscar's injuries were relatively minor, but they still took away nearly five years of his life force.
Currently, both of them have surpassed Dai Mubai in bone age and are on par with Yu Tianheng.
Of course, Dai Mubai will soon surpass them.
The Shrek Academy members, including Tang San, who were completely unaware of what was happening, were utterly astonished by what they saw.
Ning Rongrong walked over and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Ye Qinghe, where did you learn this acupuncture technique? Although it can't restore health as quickly as a healing-type Soul Master, in terms of effectiveness, it surpasses most healing-type Soul Masters. You can even do things that some healing-type Soul Masters can't..."
Everyone else cast curious glances, especially Tang San, who couldn't help but marvel at how acupuncture existed in this world, and how advanced it was.
Unfortunately, acupuncture is just acupuncture, and it can never compare to his Tang Clan's unique skills.
"If you want this Eunuch Dai to die, then keep talking to me." Ye Qinghe gave Ning Rongrong a strange look, wondering if this Miss Ning was out of her mind. He had just slapped her twice, and now she was coming over here?
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong reluctantly shut her mouth.
A few minutes later, after Ye Qinghe continuously depleted Dai Mubai's life force, he finally completed the treatment at the cost of consuming five years of Dai Mubai's life force, fixing his bone age at around twenty-one years old.
In the coming period, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar will catch up with their actual age at a visible speed and become more and more 'mature'.
Of course, this isn't without its advantages. While rapidly depleting their life force, it also increases their soul power to some extent, allowing their soul power to experience a surge in power within a short period.
It's nothing compared to the lifespan that's been consumed.
Take Dai Mubai for example. With these five years, even without immortal herbs, he would have had a good chance to reach the Soul King level. But now, by the time the Soul Master Competition ends, his soul power might be on par with the original story when he consumed immortal herbs.
Moreover, once the burst period is over, the cultivation speed will slow down.
This tactic of trading lifespan for strength is nothing short of gambling today for tomorrow.
Originally, Ye Qinghe intended to take action against Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu.
However, this thing will change bone age after consuming life force. I haven't used it for fear of being discovered.
And indeed, it turned out exactly as he had predicted.
Although Flander did not examine Ning Rongrong's physical condition, Tang San took advantage of Xiao Wu's unconscious state after healing her to check her pulse.
