1068 The Fourth God’s Messenger (1/2)
”Memory loss…” Lin Huang scowled. ”Can it be recovered?”
”I'm not sure about that. Soul damages are rather complicated. If the memory root is affected, it's impossible to fix no matter what.
”Theoretically, it can be fixed if it's just the projection of memory root in his consciousness, but determining how long it would take to recover depends on his body and the level of damage. Maybe a few days if it's short and decades if it's long. It could even go up to 100 years.”
Lin Huang fell into deep thought after hearing the stone tablet's uncertain answer. He gave up the thought of sending Chan Dou home.
He figured there might be God Bless spies in the Chan Clan when Chan Dou had been attacked back then.
Now that he was in a coma, it would mean that he had lost the ability to protect himself. If Lin Huang were to send him back just like that, Chan Dou would be at risk, so it would be safer to keep him in Dynasty instead.
Lin Huang had made up his mind to place Chan Dou at Dynasty for the time being. He would decide if he should send him home when he woke up. He then asked two guards to come after glancing at the man wrapped in the blanket with a filthy face.
”Clean him up and bring some clean clothes. The fewer people know about this, the better.”
The reason why Lin Huang added the last sentence was that Chan Dou's face was familiar to many. If too many people saw him, the news might spread outside Dynasty. By then, Chan Dou's presence in Dynasty would be exposed and it might even cause many to think it was Dynasty who had captured him.
However, the two guards had no idea about that at all. They realized it was a man wrapped in the blanket and he obviously was not properly dressed. They gawked rather awkwardly at Lin Huang.
After getting the two guards to bring Chan Dou away, Lin Huang thought about it and asked Xiao Mo to come.
As he chatted with Xiao Mo for a while, the guards brought Chan Dou, who was cleaned up and dressed, back to the Emperor Palace.
Lin Huang only said to Xiao Mo after getting rid of the guards, ”You'll be responsible for this guy's safety for the next half a month or so. I don't trust anyone else to do that.”
Xiao Mo turned his head and looked at Chan Dou who was lying on the stretcher. He was stunned when he saw the man. He asked doubtfully, ”Is he Chan Dou?!”
Lin Huang nodded. ”You know him too?'
”Of course, I do. He's one of the Five Princes, the most powerful powerhouse among the young generation. Everyone in our generation knows him, and many of the Purple Crow's female members are fans of the Five Princes. Many of them are Chan Dou's fans,” Xiao Mo explained while smiling.
”But I heard he went missing a few months ago. It created a stir on the Heart Network. Why is he in Dynasty?”
”God Bless took him, but I've just rescued him today.” Lin Huang waved his hand as he spoke after noticing Xiao Mo was going to ask more, ”We'll talk about this in the future when there's time.”
”This guy's soul is damaged, thus he might only wake up at least half a month later. It's not entirely safe to bring him back to the Chan Clan. I thought about it and thought it's better to keep him in Dynasty and figure out what to do next when he wakes up. His identity is rather sensitive, so I don't trust others to take care of him and I'm afraid that the news might leak. I only trust you to take care of him. I'll leave him in your hands for the next half a month.”
”Sure, I'm on it,” Xiao Mo responded and promised right away.
”Notify me as soon as Chan Dou wakes up.”
”Also, I'll get Xin Er to cultivate properly during this period of time and we won't disturb you. Somebody else will take care of her safety,” Lin Huang added.
”It's alright. I can take up more responsibility.” Xiao Mo saw Lin Huang taking a careful look at him while smiling as he spoke. The entire Emperor Palace fell into a dead silence. He could not help but gulp nervously. ”I think Sister Xin should really spend more time on cultivating.”
