Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1224 - 1224 1184 Possessed by an Evil Spirit

1224: Chapter 1184: Possessed by an Evil Spirit 1224: Chapter 1184: Possessed by an Evil Spirit Wu Tongwei entered the room and bellowed, “Everyone, spread out!”

As he shouted, those nearby looked back and recognized Wu Tongwei, all dispersing quickly.

“Lord Wu, you’ve arrived.”

An elderly man approached, his robes lavish but his face etched with fatigue.

“Liu Xun, how’s your son doing?”

He bowed his head and sighed deeply.

“The situation’s dire; he’s unlikely to survive.”

“What a pity, another son dead.

I fear my lineage is at its end,” he said, sighing loudly.

Wu Tongwei patted his shoulder, then walked forward.

Reaching the window, he gazed at the young man lying on the bed.

Liu Xu’s complexion was ashen, his lips pale as wax.

Completely limp yet not yet stiffened.

He felt for the pulse.

After a long while, he was barely able to discern any.

“Faint, but…

there seems to be a pulse, he’s not dead!”

“There may still be a chance.”

“We can save him!”

“Definitely save him!”

Liu Xun hurriedly approached, curiously asking, “Honorable City Lord, do you know how to bring him back?

Or does your household have a renowned doctor with such skills?”

“I implore you, if you can save him, I am willing to toil like an ox or horse for you!”

His face was filled with urgency, almost ready to kneel before Wu Tongwei.

Wu Tongwei turned to Lu Chuan, “Young Master Lu, I think this is a task for you to assist with.”

“Should I do it?

I can try, but I can’t guarantee success.”

“No matter, just give it a try.

If it works, that would be best.

If not, we’ll consider other options.”

Having said that, Wu Tongwei and Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Alright, I’ll give it a shot.”

He stepped forward, arriving beside the bed.

Liu Xun watched Lu Chuan’s figure with some curiosity.

“Can he…

bring him back?

He doesn’t seem much like a doctor.”

“His means far surpass any doctor’s; rest assured, he can do it.”

Following that, Lu Chuan opened his palm, and within it, a ball of the Nine Heavens Profound Fire sprung to life.

The Nine Heavens Profound Fire is capable of rapidly healing all bodily injuries.

As long as there’s a breath left, one can be saved, and it can dispel toxins too, effective even against the brink of death due to poisoning.

Lu Chuan began to touch Liu Xu’s body with the flames on his palm.

“Is this…

is he going to burn him?

How could this possibly heal?”

Liu Xun was quite perplexed, and so were other members of the Liu Family.

They all watched Lu Chuan with bewilderment, not understanding why he would do this.

However, Wu Tongwei placed a hand on Liu Xun’s shoulder.

“Don’t make a fuss.

Haven’t I told you?

He can be saved, don’t worry too much.”

“Oh…

Alright, I’ll just watch.”

If Wu Tongwei hadn’t been there, he would surely have pulled Lu Chuan away.

But with Wu Tongwei’s presence, he naturally felt a bit more reassured.

Given Wu Tongwei’s prestige within the city, his worries were somewhat eased.

As the flame entered Liu Xu’s body, everyone’s hearts leapt to their throats.

They were all curious – a flame that could enter a body without causing any harm!

The crowd watched Liu Xu’s body carefully.

Gradually, color began to return to Liu Xu’s pallid skin.

Seeing this, they all rubbed their eyes in astonishment.

“It seems to have recovered a bit!”

“Really, I saw it too, it truly has!”

“That’s great, to actually have an effect, our Young Master Liu Xu can come back!”

Upon seeing this, Liu Xun’s eyes brightened, and he felt an unusual curiosity towards Lu Chuan’s Nine Heavens Profound Fire.

“Such a miraculous flame can heal my son’s injuries so quickly, it’s astonishing indeed.”

Then, Lu Chuan began to feel Liu Xu’s wrist, sensing the pulse.

The beating of the pulse started to become stronger.

“The pulse is gradually returning to normal…”

“He should come around soon, but…

why isn’t he waking up?”

Lu Chuan was curious, he shook his chin, yet he still remained unconscious.

“This is not right; his body is clearly recovering, but he can’t wake up.”

“This is very abnormal…”

Seeing this, Liu Xun was also puzzled and scratched his head.

“Since his body has almost recovered, he should be waking up, maybe…

it needs some more time.”

Liu Xun said so.

The surrounding Liu Family members nodded in agreement.

Liu Xun hurriedly stepped forward, taking Lu Chuan’s hands in his own.

“I’m really too grateful, I thought my son was gone for good, thank goodness you made a move, otherwise my boy’s life would surely have been lost!”

After expressing his thanks, he turned back to look at Wu Tongwei.

“Lord Wu, I’m utterly grateful, you’ve always had us in your heart!”

He looked at Wu Tongwei, deeply moved.

“It’s what should be done, we are friends after all, when it’s critical, naturally we should lend a hand.”

At this moment, however, Lu Chuan frowned deeply, “Something isn’t right, he should be waking up by now.”

“No matter how serious the injuries, after a full recovery, he should come around, and also, his condition, it doesn’t look like he’s just normally asleep.”

Liu Xun quickly leaned in, curiously observing his son.

“Is that so?

Is there still something not right?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “He should be waking up, that’s expected!”

“This is definitely not normal, there’s a problem!”

“Then…

what could the problem be?

His continued unconsciousness might be because there are injuries on his body, causing him to be in a coma!”

Lu Chuan turned to look at Liu Xun and asked, “Does your son have many wounds on his body?”

“Uh…

not many, there’s a slash wound on his calf.”

Lu Chuan continued to ask, “Don’t you think it’s strange?

If his injuries are not that severe, then why would he be in a critical state?”

“Right…

why is that?

Could it be that the attack he suffered was special?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Correct, the damage he suffered may not have caused physical wounds.”

“I suspect he suffered harm in some other aspect!”

“Is that so?

What else could it be then?”

Lu Chuan smiled slightly, since it was the Lu Family who made the move, it must involve the evil spirit.

It’s very likely that the evil spirit attacked Liu Xu.

Or even, an evil spirit remained inside Liu Xu’s body.

That’s why he has been unable to wake up!

It’s because something is preventing him from waking up.

Lu Chuan drew the Soul Terminating Sword.

The sword’s blade lit up, runes flowing, blade quivering.

Lu Chuan’s brows locked tight, indeed there was an evil spirit here, unsurprisingly, it must be on Liu Xu!

“Ha ha ha, come out, don’t make me take action and force you out!”

Following that, Liu Xu’s body suddenly convulsed.
