Love Above All Chapter 186

Blood immediately spurted from Lan Xi’s chest.

Her heart pierced, blood flowing endlessly.

Lan Xi’s entire being twisted in agony, sinking to her knees, her gaze still reeling in shock.

By the time she looked up, Quan Shaoqing’s silhouette had already vanished.

...

Lan Xi had anticipated the worst—that Ah Qing might marry Cui Luo regardless of her feelings.

But she never expected.

He knew the might of the Heavenly Sword, yet he pierced her heart directly.

In just an instant, the blood stained the ground red.

She gasped, unable even to struggle before fainting.

...

When Mi Xi returned, he saw blood all over the place, Lan Xi lying in a pool of it.

Frightened, he dropped what he was holding and rushed over.

He lifted Lan Xi to find a bowl-sized wound on her chest, nearly drained of blood, her lips pale.

"Xixi! What happened to you, who, who stabbed you?" Mi Xi was trembling all over, clueless about what to do.

What to do?

How to save Lan Xi, who on earth injured her?

Terrified, his mind went blank, incapable of thinking of a way to save her.

In this world, Lan Xi could save anyone, even herself.

If even she can’t heal a wound, nobody can save her.

Mi Xi held Lan Xi, forcing himself to stay calm.

The nearest place was the Heavenly Court.

He could take Lan Xi directly to the Heavenly Court and seek Ya’s help.

Didn’t Ya like Lan Xi? He would surely find a way to save her.

In the Heavenly Palace, Ya was practicing swordplay in the Eastern Palace.

Suddenly, a guard hurried in to report, "Crown Prince, Immortal Mi Xi is here with Lan Xi. He requests your help to save her."

"What?" Ya set down his sword and rushed out of the Eastern Palace.

At the Eastern Palace gates, he saw Lan Xi limp in Mi Xi’s arms, her clothes soaked in blood, her face white as snow, devoid of life.

"What has happened? What’s going on?" Ya asked, panic-stricken.

Mi Xi looked at him, urgently saying, "Don’t ask about it, hurry and find a way to save her."

"Heal her!" Ya said, attempting to cast a spell on Lan Xi.

Mi Xi shook his head, "It’s useless, I’ve tried. She can’t heal herself, our immortal techniques don’t work at all."

Ya glanced at Lan Xi’s wound, his expression changing slightly.

"Immortal techniques won’t work unless injured by the Heavenly Sword."

Mi Xi stiffened in shock, then realization dawned on him.

An unhealable wound, indeed caused by the Heavenly Sword.

"Seven-Colored Immortal Soil and Blood Third Seven," Ya said quickly.

Mi Xi frantically searched Lan Xi’s Blood Jade Fan but found neither the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil nor Blood Third Seven.

If he remembered correctly, "The Seven-Colored Immortal Soil is used up, the little Blood Third Seven is in the Goddess Palace."

Ya’s heart sank; Lan Xi’s blood was nearly drained. If not treated within one Shichen, she might become the only immortal to die from blood loss in the heavens.

"Take Lan Xi back to the Goddess Palace, I’ll fetch the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil."

Without hesitation, Ya turned to head toward the Queen Mother of the West’s Jade Pool.

Mi Xi also quickly took Lan Xi back to the Goddess Palace.

Mi Xi landed at the Jade Pool.

The place once abundant with Rainbow Trees was baren, without a trace of Seven-Colored Immortal Soil.

"This..." Ya erupted in fury, confronting the Queen Mother of the West, "Where is the Rainbow Tree? Do you have any Seven-Colored Immortal Soil left?"

The Queen Mother cast Ya a glance, then surveyed the bare lakeside. With a troubled expression, she replied, "I have no idea what happened. Yesterday the Rainbow Tree was thriving, but come this morning, not even the roots were left. I’m also eager to report this to the Heavenly Emperor. As the Crown Prince is here, please take charge for me."

Ya had no time to be in charge for her.

"I need the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil; order it to be found immediately."

The Queen Mother sighed with evident difficulty and sorrow, "Crown Prince, why corner me like this? The Rainbow Tree was stolen, the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil all gone. I’ve just dispatched palace maids to collect the soil, but even upon returning it will require refining, at best having one or two grams by dusk."

Ya clenched the jade flute tightly, his face tinged with despair and fury.

With the jade flute, he attacked the ground where the Rainbow Tree used to grow, digging three feet deep.

Ultimately, he found not a trace of soil.

Why would things coincide so perfectly?

Lan Xi injured by the Heavenly Sword, the Rainbow Tree and Seven-Colored Immortal Soil stolen.

Someone deliberately sought her demise.

Ya couldn’t waste more time; since he couldn’t find the soil, he had to quickly inform the Goddess Palace and think of other solutions.

Afterward, he departed the Jade Pool without delay.

Goddess Palace.

Lan Yan was taking Lan Xi’s pulse, also dispatching maids to find the Medicine Old Man.

Mi Xi paced worriedly, while Blood Third Seven squatted at the door. Ever since seeing Lan Xi on the brink of death, it worried, its eyes brimming with tears, on the verge of crying.

"Sister Lan Xi will definitely be alright!" Blood Third Seven seemed to say to itself.

Lan Yan prevented it from entering, leaving it unable to see Lan Xi.

Chaos patted Blood Third Seven’s head, his expression equally solemn.

"Creak!"

Soon, Lan Yan pushed open Lan Xi’s room door.

Mi Xi, Blood Third Seven, and Chaos quickly moved forward.

Lan Yan also wore a grave and horrifying expression, "If the wound isn’t treated within the space of an incense stick, I’m afraid..." beyond help.

Lan Yan moved past Mi Xi and out of Caixia Pavilion, jogging all the way to the most hidden and mysterious shrine in the Goddess Palace.

There, the ancestors of the Goddess Palace were revered, including the first generation Goddess of Life.

"Pray, ancestors, bless Lan Xi!"

Lan Yan couldn’t help but shed tears.

As a mother, seeing her child suffering repeatedly, yet powerless.

She felt like a stranger, watching helplessly, her heart painfully shredded by tiny blades.

Lan Xi is hurt, every time, all she can do is watch.

Because Lan Xi surpassed her greatly, to her, she was but a useless mother.

...

Ya returned.

Lan Yan emerged from the shrine.

No guidance from ancestors, but she couldn’t abandon her child.

"Got the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil?"

"Got the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil?"

Lan Yan and Mi Xi eagerly asked.

Ya icily shook his head, "When I arrived, the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil and Rainbow Tree were both gone. The Queen Mother of the West is preparing to go to the Heavenly Court because of this."

Mi Xi’s heart sank, as if a heavy stone weighed on his chest, his breath almost ceasing, "What to do now? Without the Seven-Colored Immortal Soil, how to save Lan Xi."

"The Heavenly Book!" Lan Yan suddenly seemed to have a realization.

She jolted and quickly disappeared from the Goddess Palace.
