Chapter 895: The Great Land in Shock
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The entire Demon-slaying City discussed loudly when Lu Li was taken back. A peerless young man in his prime had turned into a dying old man after several months at the Eastern Land of Oceans.
People were in greater shock when they learned something else.
Lu Li alone stopped the allied attack of the Asmodian Lord and the Dragon Demon. Lu Li used some taboo energy, consumed too much of his life force, which backfired. In an instant, his hair turned white and he seemed aged. Now, he was barely hanging onto life…
People wept at the news in the city. Many knelt in front of the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse, praying for Lu Li.
The fact that the Asmodian Lord was killed, and the Eastern Land of Oceans could be conquered did brace people up.
The Asmodian Lord once was the sword dangling above humans’ head. Many spent a sleepless night, fearing that the Asmodian Lord would stage a comeback, ruin the Demon-slaying City, kill and enslave every human being.
The Asmodian Lord’s demise meant that the threat to humans was eliminated. The masters of the other three races had already been killed. Last time when the four alien races came, Lu Li killed many of their powerful warriors, which undermined the alien races greatly.
In other words, just in case that Lu Li could not recover, humans would be in no fear of the four alien races. The humans had been given at least a thousand years of peace.
If Lu Li could recover, then humans would be able to crash the four alien races completely. It was even possible that they could wipe out the four alien races.
Therefore, many knelt in front of the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse, praying sincerely for the recovery of Lu Li. He was their guardian, the benefactor of the human race. Without him, the Demon-slaying City would have been compromised and humans in the city would have died.
Inevitably, the news was sent to the Central Plains and then the entire Great Land. Lu Zhengyang, Lu Ling and Bai Xiashuang were informed at once. Lu Zhengyang hurried to the Demon-slaying Battleground overnight. Bai Xiashuang and Lu Ling teleported to the Demon-slaying City immediately.
The entire Central Plains was taken by surprise!
Many of Lu Li’s enemies were overjoyed. If Lu Li could not make it alive, they could have a chance to stage a comeback for revenge.
At the Great Buddhist Temple, the abbot stopped cultivation and went to the Demon-slaying City with Prajna. Ye Family Patriarch, Ye Luo, and Jiang Wuwo came as well.
Lu Li was their benefactor at the moment. Without him, the Central Plains would experience a great change. The fire of war would rage again. Not only would they have to relinquish the territories they occupied, but they might also even have to give up their original properties…
Palace of Heaven’s Roars, Palace of Immortal’s Inquiries and Red Lunar remained silent. If Lu Li could make it, then things would be the same for them. On the other hand, if Lu Li died, then it would be a great opportunity for them to change things at the Central Plains.
At first, 12 Royal Families divided up the Central Plains amongst them. After Lu Li came to power, Lu Family became the largest force, and the Pavilion of Delicacy, Tumulus of Universe and the Great Buddhist Temple was second to the Lu Family. For Palace of Heaven’s Roars, Palace of Immortal’s Inquiries and Red Lunar, they came in third. Therefore, the demise of Lu Li could be beneficial to them.
On the other hand, civilians of the Great Land were not concerned about the disputes of those forces. Many civilians worshiped at the shrine of Emperor of Heaven Reverse day and night, praying for the survival of Lu Li.
For those civilians, who was the master of the Central Plains was not the pressing matter. What mattered was that… Lu Li saved the civilians of the Great Land.
Lu Li was their guardian, a hero of the humans, their benefactor. Civilians would be worried that their benefactor was in danger and might lose his life.
…
In a manor in the Demon-slaying City gathered many powerful warriors. All the accomplished healers of the Great Land had come and were gathered in a castle.
A large amount of elixirs were collected. On a table in the castle placed many Interspatial Rings. But powerful warriors were not necessarily healers. Lu Li was not injured in the normal sense but had lost too much source of life. His bodily functions were damaged. The actions he took backfired on him. He was getting older and older, weaker and weaker…
“I think we should use a large amount of the best elixirs on Grand Master and at the same time, we should feed him with soul-nurturing herbs. We have no time to wait…”
“Idiot. Grand Master is weak. Do you want the Grand Master to pass away? Those elixirs are too potent. We do not know what will happen if Grand Master cannot take the effects well.”
“I think we should go with gradual care. We will have powerful warriors pour Xuan Energy into Grand Master to help him rebuild the source of life. Then, we take care of Grand Master by giving him some mild elixirs…”
“Grand Master is becoming worse and weaker and you want to take your time? I think we should go with the desperate remedies…”
“You are all wrong…”
The group of healers debated heatedly. None could be convinced by the other. It was so noisy that Patriarch of Law Enforcement was getting angry.
However, Patriarch of Law Enforcement did not know which side he should take. Die Family was actually the best in practicing medicine at the Great Land for the Die Family’s Bloodline Skill, being related to life, could rebuild broken bones and bring the dead back to life.
None could be more suitable than the Die Family to treat Lu Li in this situation where his source of life was undermined.
However, the Pavilion of Blossoms was wiped out by Lu Li…
Lu Zhengyang was in a panic. He did not know who to listen to. What was more, given how weak Lu Li was, who could have the courage to act randomly or feed him with just any elixirs?
“Alas!”
Lu Li was lying on the bed, barely breathing. He appeared to be older than Lu Zhengyang. Bai Xiashuang wept on the side, silently. Everything made Lu Zhengyang’s heartache.
In the castle, many patriarchs were grieved. They had thought that so many healers and so many elixirs could get Lu Li cured at once. None of them expect to see such a situation.
“Master, can’t you save Brother Lu?”
Prajna’s eyes were swimming with tears. She pulled the old abbot’s sleeve. But he shook his head and said, “I only know how to develop antidotes, but I am not good at treating people. I am not sure what I can do… to help Lu Li.”
As a matter of fact, the old abbot was not alone. Every healer was hesitating because they were not sure. Lu Li was too weak. If anyone had fed Lu Li with some medicine but caused his immediate death, Lu Zhengyang would have killed that someone right away.
The only one here not in a panic was Lu Ling. She seemed to be composed as always. She stood next to Lu Li, looking at him as if she could not hear the clamor in the castle.
“Sister!”
Suddenly, Bai Xiashuang took Lu Ling’s hands and said, choking, “I know you are resourceful. Think of a way to save my husband.”
“Don’t worry!”
Lu Ling patted Bai Xiashuang’s back. She looked away to the outside and said, “Just a moment.”
“A moment?”
Many people were confused. What was Lu Ling waiting for? Many begun to check with psychic power. After a while, Ming Yu came with several aged men and entered the castle directly.
“All of you, get out!”
Upon Ming Yu’s arrival, Lu Ling put on a stern look. She waved her hand and ordered coldly.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement, Lu Zhengyang, and Great Grandfather Five was taken by surprise. Lu Zhengyang asked, “Ling-er, do you think your method can work?”
“They are better than those people!”
Lu Ling bowed to the several aged men behind Ming Yu and said, “Clan Leader Ding, patriarchs, thank you so much.”
Those were Ding Gui and three patriarchs of the Shennong Race. Ding Gui said nothing. He went to Lu Li to give him a careful inspection. Then, he bowed to Lu Ling and said, “Lady Ling, don’t worry. I have brought with me elixirs from the Prison of Wood. I am fairly confident that I can cure Saint Lord.”
“Okay!”
Lu Ling’s eyes glowed. Bai Xiashuang was delighted as well. She knew Ding Gui, the best healer of the Shennong Race. It was almost certain that Lu Li could recover when Ding Gui was confident.
