The man was stunned.
“Who… who are you?” the man asked, somewhat angrily, but mostly with sadness.
Xue An replied with a calm smile, “It’s not important who I am, but I can cure your wife’s illness!”
Cao Zheng stood in a daze for a moment, a look of confusion on his face.
At this time, Xue Xiang blinked earnestly and said, “Uncle, my daddy is really amazing!”
Cao Zheng stepped aside and said in a deep voice, “Come in! I am Cao Zheng!”
The light in the room was very dim, but it was tidy, and the air was filled with the thick scent of Chinese medicine.
And a woman as thin as a rake lay on the bed with lifeless eyes, her face pallid, exuding an aura of death.
Xue An was right, if not treated soon, this woman wouldn’t last more than three days.
“Who… ah!” the woman said feebly.
Cao Zheng’s face only softened when facing this woman, filled with tenderness and indulgence.
“Some friends, and this person has come to treat your illness.”
The woman shook her head, “Forget it, no one can cure my illness, don’t waste any more money on me! Save the money, after I’m gone, you can find someone else!”
Cao Zheng’s eyes were full of indulgence, “What silly things are you saying?
You will definitely get better.”
As he said this, Cao Zheng turned his head, his eyes brimming with tears.
Han Yao had wanted to explain their presence, but upon witnessing this scene, she couldn’t help but be moved.
No wonder the once illustrious director had fallen so far, all for the sake of the woman he loved.
Xue Xiang and Xue Nian tugged at Xue An’s clothes at this moment, looking distressed and said, “Daddy, save this auntie, they’re so pitiful!”
Xue An smiled.
Indeed, a child’s heart is always the purest.
Although Cultivators should detach from worldly emotions, indulging solely in slaughter would only lead down the demonic path.
Only by maintaining the heart of an innocent can one advance without hindrance!
Xue An took a few steps forward and approached the woman’s bedside.
He could see at a glance that this woman was near the end of her life, clinging to life now was nothing short of a miracle. Indeed, she was sustained by a mere breath.
And what was that breath?
One only had to see the woman’s loving and reluctant gaze towards Cao Zheng to understand.
Xue An’s heart, as steadfast as a boulder, was nonetheless touched.
So, he extended his hand and commanded softly, “Converge!”
The woman’s soul had scattered, and if it wasn’t gathered back first, no Spirit Pill could save her.
But who could gather a soul, other than an Immortal?
Fortunately, Xue An was that Immortal.
And he was a supreme one at that.
At his command, countless points of light began to coalesce.
This miraculous sight left Cao Zheng dumbfounded.
And the woman’s eyes slowly became lucid.
Moments later, Xue An took a step back and produced a Primordial Essence Elixir.
It was made from leftover dregs.
But to ordinary people, it was a divine medicine.
Xue An tossed the Elixir to Cao Zheng, “Taking this medicine can extend one’s life by a hundred years.”
Cao Zheng caught the Elixir and, without hesitation, moved forward to administer it to the woman.
This was just as Xue An had intended.
He wanted to see how the man would decide in the face of a divine medicine that could extend life by a hundred years.
The result did not disappoint him.
Although the woman’s breath was still weak, her expression had improved a lot.
She too had heard Xue An’s words and knew the value of the medicine.
After Cao Zheng fed it to her, she bit it in half in her mouth, then suddenly kissed Cao Zheng on the lips.
This scene made even Han Yao freeze.
The sunlight from outside shone in, casting a golden sheen on the two ordinary mortals.
