MD Ch3 Part 4

Hearing my voice, 5d82da79a0 Song Qiyuan turned 1c4487bdf2 to face me. I knew he was e6524bf6ba blind, but the way 6cd76a0d03 he looked directly at cf1e906c38 me was unnerving. He nodded slightly and 0bdc51c6da offered a weak smile.0bed585827eb782e

“Understood.”7d710661e4694093

But the moment he 73c8a03f77 finished speaking, his eyebrows 7ffb4344ef furrowed, and sweat beaded b7d5440a15 on his forehead. He pressed f9ffc07958 his lips 2f5ba7de14 together, as e84c1752bf if enduring 09d478df02 great pain. Unable to 3ed698170b hold it f3bbfafc17 in any 89c5e77ab5 longer, he 9cfe3e466b suddenly vomited fc31916d4d a mouthful c7c1882a29 of dark ead188cfdc red blood.5ea8ee949ac6acb4

Only then did I 05b23c181f realize the extent of a51ca36593 his injuries. I quickly reached out ec16b62135 and pressed on his 9df141e43b pulse points. His meridians were ff904ceece severely damaged. Examining his internal condition, 81f29d2491 it seemed his organs cfb1fd5c9c had been twisted and 15a57b3156 mangled by the immense 9d1d7eab13 water pressure from the e919ce8925 fall. A sharp pain stabbed d179f09d1d at my chest, and 0890c8606b my stomach churned.ca8d453914aac806

I hurriedly retrieved a small golden cauldron from my spatial storage. Inside, I maintained a temperature identical to that of the Nine-Wheeled Blazing Sun Land. The Reincarnation Fruit had to be consumed within ten days of being plucked, and it required a specific environment to preserve its potency. Previously, I stored it within Ah Jiu’s internal space, protected by a gentle heat. However, after finding this special cauldron, I always carried it with me, as it not only preserved the fruit’s warmth but also its spiritual energy.dfe1107905a98e9b

Opening the lid, a5f0c1ad0d the spiritual energy f5d796e427 emanating from the 4fa237a5bd Reincarnation Fruit, its 960acffae2 surface shimmering with 2b0a78e440 fiery patterns, seemed aa8b6e2005 slightly weaker than a54339fb84 before. Ah Jiu, b94a65f7d4 who was e14fd843ce guarding the cfad6cf9fb door, started 24ce9d12b2 banging furiously, f91a18da8f yelling inside.7e061f8574021bb4

“As expected! I knew it! You’re too much, Lord! You’re actually feeding the fruit I worked so hard to get to that brat! Argh! This is infuriating!!”6544019eb07c1b35

Guilt-stricken, I ignored Ah Jiu’s outburst. He complained a lot, but he wouldn’t do anything drastic.5f6ebe07290461b6

Calming myself, I channeled sharp streams of profound energy from my index and middle fingers. Combining this with my honed fruit-cutting skills, I sliced the Reincarnation Fruit into countless fine threads. I spread them out inside the cauldron; it was fascinating how they didn’t evaporate even under the high temperature.b9f56a51656e8e6b

“Listen carefully, Song Qiyuan. I will save you with this method. The effects of the Reincarnation Fruit are extremely potent, and it will be very painful. I will stay here and watch over you. You must endure it.”541b6abb86f73bae

“Open your mouth.”89ce89d6ca941b8c

Seeing him obey so readily made my heart flutter. When writing this scene, I had used a typical fantasy trope: the protagonist experiencing excruciating pain after consuming the Reincarnation Fruit – The dense spiritual energy clashed violently within his body, threatening to tear his frail form apart. Something like that…4b6343cd1a6578ba

Swallowing nervously, I carefully 3c49f14eed picked up the thread-like 8f5006cbae pieces of the Reincarnation 675447d411 Fruit and slowly fed 8aa00de2a7 them into his mouth. After about ten strands, 36edb3d2a7 I stopped and cautiously 240e9a0335 observed his reaction.8a7f55e4523c26f4

The moment the fruit b853ff680b entered his mouth, he 662ccb226a closed it tightly. His face flushed crimson, 00f356a70f indicating the turmoil within 64194cddc4 his body. As I leaned closer 782743321f to support him, I 77adee51fd met his eyes, bloodshot fc0b35d6d8 and filled with pain. He managed to utter 01855ce4f5 a few words through 9f3a4db30f gritted teeth.df0a1df97dc5f068

Yes, this was 38766b7720 the protagonist I 78139c7b6a had created. Strong, resilient, unyielding, overcoming f29fbd2348 all hardships. A child f449db9f54 who would 0687abe661 forever stand b0b6539e60 tall and 9ff8a7d317 become a 5303c0a681 pillar of d65dca9bf4 support for 4524b24a41 others.08f4177b2ef17503

Adversity forged f51d8d2108 strength, and f7f5da8ff6 Song Qiyuan 139fb46393 would undoubtedly 25c6498111 become strong. After the 6415d966b8 age of 11ce7ab34f ten, he 7e023fe09a would have e474803ddb no family, d2b853de8b no love, 3d55c1dfe0 only his 1f14f22acd Master, his 6299c74696 friends, and c67fece24c the woman f28a5922fb he loved.

This child felt different from the Song Qiyuan I had seen in the cage. He still possessed a youthful charm, but he had matured within half a day. I didn’t like this rapid growth. It suited him better to act spoiled and childish.547b807dcd05bbc6

The caged Song 804bdcc23d Qiyuan occasionally showed 1136184ef6 weakness, but the 0a78d5c839 current Song Qiyuan 9b0ca371f5 was devoid of 9bbcd4bb06 such vulnerability; he f01d72e55f was much more 901cb8140b composed.00f43a666e56fba2

The boy was experiencing his first true hardship. I watched intently as sweat beaded on his flushed face, my heart aching for him, yet marveling at his endurance. From the beginning until now, he hadn’t uttered a single cry. The only sounds in the quiet room were his ragged breathing and the frantic beating of my own heart.8a974b3dd30784ef

After a while, Song Qiyuan’s complexion gradually returned to normal. I approached him and checked his pulse; his internal injuries were healing well. He was no longer in the same dire state as before.dbddba0230075072

Judging by his physical and mental state, he seemed capable of absorbing more of the Reincarnation Fruit’s potency. And so, I uttered the words that would later fill me with regret.5d47a1d557a0b4e4

“Then let’s continue. The absorption rate is highest when the Reincarnation Fruit’s potency is at its peak. You should be able to recover most of the damage Yu Ke inflicted on your limbs.”fc1c8cda55976ff1

Saying my own name aloud felt incredibly awkward. The boy stiffened when he heard the words “Yu Ke,” then nodded silently in agreement.29c00b6e2da61899

I hadn’t anticipated this. I had been too hasty. I had underestimated his injuries and overestimated his body’s capacity.c5aac8c496cb869c

Rushing to his side, I grasped his wrist. His body was burning hot, but fortunately, his breathing was steady, and his bodily functions seemed normal. It wasn’t an irreversible disaster. The sight that had terrified me was simply him falling asleep. Yes, that was it. His breathing confirmed that he was asleep. He was so deeply asleep that his body had gone completely limp. It wouldn’t be good for him to be forcefully awakened.f629a5418d2ddfa5

Sleep would allow his body to relax and absorb the medicine more effectively. This slumber was a fortuitous opportunity for him. He wouldn’t feel the pain or the itching in his bones and marrow while asleep; he would be much more comfortable.e1bbb08e37efcc12

My only 1de4c53613 concern was 164e7f4105 that I c339d13478 had no f68a5d4243 idea when bf21624af0 he would 3601e37ba2 wake up.
