Chapter 836: Jing’er, I’m Not Stupid
——
Ling Xiang took Han Qingjue back to the Holy Maiden Palace, infused some spiritual power into her, temporarily protecting Han Qingjue’s mind. However, Han Qingjue had lost a lot of blood and was severely injured. The bones from her wrist to several centimeters above were completely shattered, rendering her right hand disabled. He was not skilled in medical arts, so he didn’t know how to handle it.
And now, they were strangers in Mengluo City, making it difficult to find a doctor.
Ling Xiang had no choice but to instruct the servants of the Holy Maiden Palace to wait outside Changhuan Palace. If they saw Xia Qingcheng and the others return, they were to inform him. Meanwhile, he went to find Guard Captain Qing Ke to see if he could help find a doctor to take a look.
The Holy Maiden Palace had been empty for a long time, and the servants were only responsible for cleaning, so they didn’t know any doctors.
It was a coincidence, as Qing Ke had been busy with various things all day. So when Ling Xiang found him, he was still at Changhuan Palace. After explaining the situation to him, Qing Ke helped find a highly experienced doctor.
But after the doctor examined Han Qingjue’s condition, he shook his head: "The right hand is crippled, the cultivation is greatly damaged, barely able to save a life. It’s still uncertain how she will be when she wakes up."
Then he gave a few medicine pills to Ling Xiang and left.
Now, Ling Xiang didn’t know what to do. He could only wait for Han Jing and the others to return and then decide.
After all, he wasn’t really connected to Han Qingjue.
He heard the next day that Xia Qingcheng had returned to Changhuan Palace that night. He specifically went to inquire about the situation and brought Han Qingjue over to see if there was a way to treat her. Xia Qingcheng didn’t refuse and patiently took Han Qingjue’s pulse, but the conclusion was the same as the doctor’s: leave it to fate.
A life could be saved, but the person was more or less ruined.
And seeing her condition of unconsciousness, it was uncertain when she’d wake up.
Ling Xiang had no choice but to temporarily leave Han Qingjue at Changhuan Palace, and he also stayed there, waiting for Han Jing and the others to come out.
——
And Han Jing waited a full five days before Su Yu woke up.
During these five days, Han Jing’s injuries had mostly healed. Seeing Su Yu finally stirring, he joyfully went over to pull him out of the Blood Purification Pool: "Su Yu, are you okay? Do you feel any discomfort anywhere?"
Then, seeing Su Yu’s somewhat solemn expression, he couldn’t help but wave his hand in front of him: "Hey, Su Yu, can you see me? Do you remember who you are?"
He pointed at himself: "Who am I?"
Su Yu...
"Jing’er, I’m not stupid." He was just thinking about what happened at the time and the Shengxue Pearl within him, lost in thought for a moment. He hadn’t lost his memory or gone stupid.
Han Jing let out a sigh of relief: "You scared me to death."
Su Yu...
"What happened? How did I become the Clan Leader of the Xia Clan?" Su Yu had no memory of what happened while he was unconscious, but he had now accepted the Jade Totem of the Xia Clan’s leader, so he knew he was already the Clan Leader.
"That’s a long story..." Han Jing went on to explain everything that happened after he fell unconscious, like Xia Ji and Ling Yue jumping off a cliff and how he almost died. Then they might have been tricked by Xia Qingcheng, so... Su Yu ended up becoming the Clan Leader of the Xia Clan.
