Chapter 1028: Chapter 1028: Repairing the Face

Liu Yan’s personality was strong and independent, ChengYu couldn’t previously imagine that Liu Yan would speak to him in this tone.

It was evident how greatly this injury had impacted Liu Yan.

ChengYu took a deep breath and gently patted her back, soothingly saying,

"Don’t worry, I’m back now, I promise to make those who hurt you pay a hundred, a thousand times over!"

Liu Yan clung tightly to ChengYu, so emotionally charged that she didn’t even notice her nails had already deeply embedded into ChengYu’s body.

If ChengYu’s body were not beyond ordinary, who knows how many scars would have been left on his back.

ChengYu silently experienced all this, understanding that this woman needed an arm to lean on, and this was nothing compared to what he felt he owed Liu Yan.

Feeling that the grip of Liu Yan’s hand on his back had loosened a bit, ChengYu then quietly asked beside her ear,

"Why not close the bar and just stay home?"

Liu Yan shook her head, "They came for you. The more I hide, the more dangerous it becomes. Everything is already like this; it’s better to stay openly here, doesn’t it make those people feel more at ease?"

ChengYu furrowed his brows, already understanding Liu Yan’s intent.

Her daily presence at the bar was itself a statement, signaling that she was still within their control, always available as a tool against ChengYu.

"Have you never thought of leaving?"

"Leave? And go where?"

Liu Yan chuckled lightly, "This is my home. Besides, I promised you. I would look after Nan Zhi’s bar. Chengyu, have I done it?"

"Yes! You have done well, very well indeed!"

ChengYu generously praised Liu Yan for the hardships she endured these days. He knew it wouldn’t erase the physical and mental pain Liu Yan suffered, but it could at least bring some comfort to her heart.

"Your face..."

"Don’t speak!"

Hearing ChengYu speak, Liu Yan, who had just relaxed a bit, suddenly became tense again. Then she clung to ChengYu even tighter, her legs wrapping directly around his waist, not giving ChengYu any chance to pull away or to see her face directly.

ChengYu felt a pang of heartache, but still said, "Sister Liu Yan, how can I help you heal like this?"

"Heal?" Liu Yan was startled, then unconsciously released her hands, and then looked at ChengYu.

The next second, she realized her severely disfigured face was before ChengYu, and she immediately tightened her embrace, resting her head on his shoulder, unwilling to separate again.

ChengYu’s heart was bitter; he had actually seen Liu Yan’s injuries when she first stood up.

To describe her face as horrific was nothing short of accurate, this wasn’t a simple disfigurement caused by physical means. Liu Yan’s face bore hundreds of scars, all inflicted by a cultivator, directly embedded on her face.

Not to mention natural recovery, even the most advanced plastic surgery technologies, her new visage would instantly be ruined again by the residual mana on her face, showing how malicious the opponent was.

"You don’t have to lie to me anymore, I’ve already seen doctors, and they all say there’s no way at all, I will definitely never recover in this lifetime."

"Have you forgotten that I am the best doctor?"

ChengYu said soothingly, knowing that to make Liu Yan willing to face herself and let him heal her, he needed to give her some courage and confidence.

"You can cure this too?" Liu Yan was still somewhat incredulous.

"Yes, and I promise that not only will you recover, but your whole demeanor will only improve from before!"

"I...I don’t believe it."

Liu Yan’s words were already showing signs of wavering.

"You didn’t have faith in me before either."

Liu Yan had nothing to say and finally struggled to say, "Do you really want to cure me?"

"Of course!"

Su Chengyu asked without hesitation, completely not understanding why Liu Yan would ask such a thing.

"Then, if I stay like this forever, will you just abandon me?"

Su Chengyu was stunned; indeed, he had not expected Liu Yan to be thinking about this.

The workings of a woman’s heart are truly mysterious and unpredictable.

"I am a cultivator, what mortals view as an immortal. To me, the physical body is but a fleeting cloud; no matter what you look like, I will treat you the same."

"People also say that you immortals sever all emotions and desires, don’t they? Why haven’t you severed yours?"

"Slander! Pure slander! The balance of Yin and Yang is the Heavenly Dao itself; otherwise, why would there be such a term as Dual Cultivation?"

Su Chengyu retorted vehemently, and seeing this, Liu Yan finally couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

After the familiar banter, the tension inside Liu Yan finally dissipated substantially.

After taking a deep breath, she slowly let go of Su Chengyu, and presented her shocking face to him without any reservations.

Even though he had glimpsed Liu Yan’s face before, Su Chengyu couldn’t help but shudder when he finally scrutinized it.

Liu Yan’s face was covered with a dense network of mana flows, those mana strands looked like white worms, constantly devouring her cheeks and ceaselessly consuming her newly formed flesh.

Since the injury, Liu Yan had been enduring this agony every moment.

She drowned her sorrows day and night, not only to alleviate the pressure inside her heart but also to numb herself, so she wouldn’t have to feel the heart-piercing pain at all times.

Such a cruel person!

Su Chengyu clenched his fists secretly, his anger rising again.

"ChengYu? Is it very troublesome?"

Noticing the change in Su Chengyu’s expression, Liu Yan asked with some concern.

Su Chengyu shook his head and said softly, "Don’t worry, leave everything to me. I assure you that after tonight, you will still be Lin Jiang’s most beautiful rose with thorns."

"Mm..."

Liu Yan felt moved inwardly. Although she had resisted a bit out of fear just moments ago, deep down, she wished to be restored to her former self.

Despite her encounters with many important figures, she was still just an ordinary woman, and to any woman, beauty is like a second life.

If it weren’t for her desire to see Su Chengyu again, if it weren’t for her lingering thoughts of Xu Nanzhi, Liu Yan would have ended her own life long ago.

Knowing the significance of the matter, Su Chengyu did not dare to be careless. In addition to using Eternal-youth Pills and Ci Ti Dan for assistance, he also specifically called Yu Yanshu.

The Primordial Eye of Yu Yanshu could help Su Chengyu see the complex network of facial meridians more clearly, to avoid any accidents.

With careful mana assistance, Su Chengyu was wholly engrossed and didn’t even notice that he had entered the Realm of Selflessness.

Noticing the signs, Yu Yanshu was even more cautious in assisting Su Chengyu, fearing she might disturb his precise control.

Only when the last trace of mana on Liu Yan’s face was removed did Su Chengyu come out of the Realm of Selflessness.

Su Chengyu looked at Liu Yan, who had fallen into a deep sleep, and sighed with relief, realizing only then how tired he felt.

But seeing the skin on Liu Yan’s face rapidly regrowing due to the effects of the medicine, he finally put his concerns to rest.

He reached out and gently touched Liu Yan’s face, whispering:

"Yan’er, you go back first with your master. I’ll stay here and watch over her."
