Under everyone’s watchful gaze, Tang Xiu grabbed Tang Yunde’s wrist and his fingers pressed at his pulse, quietly feeling it. What made him rather grateful was that, while Tang Yunde’s pulse was rather weak and suffered severe loss of vital energy, it was still sufficient to support his bodily functions.
Furthermore, even in this condition, he could still live eight to ten years more!
Releasing his wrist, Tang Xiu pulled him up and set his body sitting straight. Whilst pressing his five fingers on Tang Yunde’s head, he directed his star force and released his spiritual sense.
Brain domain. It was the most mysterious part of the human body. When Tang Xiu became a Supreme in the Immortal World, he had been able to utilize and control 60% of his brain area, whereas the rest 40% he had never been able to develop or use it.
As Tang Xiu examined him, his face turned unsightly. He found that Tang Yunde’s brain nerves had been severely atrophied with blood congestions in the neuronal nodes. The congestion had even coagulated, and there were signs that it had blocked the blood supply to the brain. Furthermore, the part of brain ventricles connected to the mind sea had been cut off, leaving a particular ash-grey substance blocking it. It was precisely this ash-grey substance that trapped his consciousness in the mind sea, causing him to be unable to perceive the outside world.
Trapped consciousness- Tang Xiu had experienced it once before.
When a wisp of his soul crossed over to the Immortal World in the past, whereupon it emerged on someone else’s body there, it was trapped therein for three months, and eventually came out of the predicament by chance to become the owner of that body.
The feeling of having one’s consciousness trapped was very depressing as well as painful! Wanting to rest yet unable to sleep, floating and drifting in the endless darkness, driving one to wish for death. If one’s mental constitution was tough, they might be able to persist for a long time, otherwise, they would be driven to insanity, mentally disoriented and devoid of any strength and capability of thinking.
Four or five minutes later.
Tang Xiu slowly retracted his palm and quickly kept his spiritual sense. He would still be able to save Tang Yunde, but the process would be very dangerous. The danger was not just applied to Tang Yunde, but to him as well.
“Xiu’er, how is it?”
Standing at the side, Su Lingyun asked with anticipation.
Looking at his mother’s expression, Tang Xiu sighed inwardly. While he had low emotional intelligence, with his superb intelligence, how couldn’t he be able to feel his mother’s anticipation at this moment?
“Mom, is he really important to you?”
After staying silent for a moment only then did Tang Xiu speak.
Resolutely replying, Su Lingyun said, “Very. The both of you, father and son, are very important to me.”
Equals?
Tang Xiu savored her answer inside before he finally made a decision. His gaze turned to Tang Guosheng and spoke in a heavy tone, “I dare not guarantee to have 100% chance of curing him. But I’m willing to give it a try. Prepare a spacious place where nobody can’t disturb us. Also, find me a set of silver needles.”
Tang Guosheng’s eyes lit up as he asked in a deep tone, “I’ll arrange it immediately. Aside from silver needles, what else do you need?”
“If your Tang Family has the ability, go to the medicinal herb market or herbs shops and buy a lot of Dragonfume Grass. Bear in mind that this herb is extremely scarce and very expensive. However many you can find, buy them.”
Dragonfume Grass?
Tang Guosheng turned and shouted sternly, “You all heard it. All of you look for it, and be quick about it. Within three hours, all that Tang Xiu needs must be found.”
“Yes!”
A dozen Tang family members rushed outside.
Tang Guosheng then gave Tang Xiu and his mother a look whilst secretly sighing. Having been silent for a moment, he said mildly, “Tang Xiu, it would perhaps take some time to find the medicinal herb you need. It’s night already, so let’s have dinner first! Even if you’re not hungry, your mother is.”
Tang Xiu took a look at his mother who grabbed Tang Yunde’s hand as he silently nodded.
“I’ll cook. I’ll cook for you myself,” said Qin Changyue quickly as she hurried to leave the room after saying that.
A warm feeling sprouted inside Tang Xiu’s heart when he looked at her back. He indeed rejected the Tang Family’s members, but seeing Qin Changyue’s actions, he could see that each and every expression and action brought along a deep affection and love within.
He was not someone whose heart was made of stone. Qin Changyue spoke a few words and hurriedly left; it touched his heart. He even began to silently recognize this paternal grandmother of his for the first time.
“We’re also going out!”
Tang Xiu turned to Tang Guosheng and said.
At the main hall of the residence.
