Chapter 634: Chapter 634: No Matter the Cost_1

Previously, although Xu Yourong was poisoned by Love Poison and the Flower Servant Elixir, as long as Ning Fan was willing to pour life force into her, he could still keep Xu Yourong alive.

At this moment, Xu Yourong was like a floodgate that had been opened, and the layer of ice was the gate itself.

Once the gate was broken, life force would drain away.

If no solution was found to this problem, Xu Yourong might have to remain in this state for the rest of her life.

"No way," Ning Fan said with iron-clad determination, "whatever the cost, I will definitely restore Yourong to normal!"

His tone was firm and resolute.

Su Qingcheng did not doubt for a moment that if someone told Ning Fan that trading his life could free Xu Yourong from her plight, Ning Fan would offer up his life without a second thought.

Thinking of her own clan members who were willing to sell her off for a meager benefit, Su Qingcheng couldn’t help but feel intense envy for Xu Yourong.

If there was a man who would risk life and death for her...

After a long pause, she shook her head vigorously, discarding those complicated thoughts to the back of her mind.

"You can’t show up outside now, the commotion in the mountains has definitely caught the attention of other powers. Let’s go to my villa first."

"That villa was bought under my personal name, very few people know about it, and you can comfortably look for a way to restore Yourong there."

Ning Fan nodded, "Thank you, Miss Su."

Following that, Su Qingcheng drove straight to the outskirts, quickly arriving at a luxurious villa.

Ning Fan carried Xu Yourong to a room on the second floor and placed her on the bed.

"Yourong... I will save you!"

Ning Fan gently touched the thin layer of ice, his eyes brimming with tenderness.

No matter how difficult the process, he was determined to help Xu Yourong return to normal.

On the bed, Xu Yourong was enveloped with a faint chill, her stunning face frozen by the ice, resembling a flawless Sleeping Beauty.

Ning Fan sat down beside her, raised his hand to the ice layer, and once again tried to use his spiritual power to defrost Xu Yourong.

Just like before, as soon as he attempted to defrost the ice, the life force within Xu Yourong’s body would start to diminish wildly.

Even if he infused life force into Xu Yourong’s body while defrosting the ice, it still did not change the situation.

Ning Fan looked at the frozen Xu Yourong, filled with regret, and remembered every single moment they had spent together.

Every encounter, every life-and-death situation, every time they faced powerful enemies...

Ning Fan came to realize that Dong Xiangyu was right; Xu Yourong was in danger solely because of him.

Since the start of his cultivation, the people around him, Xu Yourong included, had been perpetually in danger.

Ning Fan contemplated for a long time, took a deep breath, and his eyes suddenly blazed with resolve.

"Yourong, no matter what, I will heal you and will never let you face danger again!"

He thought for a moment and then summoned the Filial Aura.

Previously, to maintain Xu Yourong’s life force, Ning Fan had tried connecting her with the Filial Aura.

However, after Xu Yourong returned to normal through the Foundation Establishment Pill, Ning Fan retracted the Filial Aura, considering that it was not good for it to stay inside a body for too long.

If now helping Xu Yourong defrost would reduce her life force, couldn’t he just ensure that there was always life force replenishing inside her body?

He called out the Filial Aura, ready to let it enter Xu Yourong’s body again and absorb his life force before transferring it into Xu Yourong.

The Filial Aura eagerly anticipated this task; having done it before, they were already familiar with the process of absorbing and transferring life force.

Besides, they could keep a portion of Ning Fan’s life force for themselves while absorbing it, so why not?

However, the situation this time was unexpectedly different.

After releasing the Filial Aura, Ning Fan watched as it lingered outside the ice for a long time without being able to enter.

Ning Fan frowned, and after making inquiries, his expression grew grim.

The usually invincible Filial Aura now couldn’t even enter Xu Yourong’s body!

The nature of the Filial Aura was extremely special. If it deliberately wanted to enter a human body, it was difficult to prevent.

If not for Ning Fan’s own powerful strength, the Filial Aura would have drained him without pause.

But now, the Filial Aura couldn’t penetrate even this thin layer of ice.

"Try again," Ning Fan insisted, his brow furrowed, unwilling to give up just yet. Even though the Filial Aura indicated that they could not enter, he still forced them to try.

Eventually, after pushing the Filial Aura to the point of near exhaustion, he finally abandoned the idea of making them enter Xu Yourong’s body.

"If even the Filial Aura can’t do it, it seems that Yourong will have to continue in this state for now."

Ning Fan sat down by the bed, his hands forcefully grabbing his hair, a sense of despondency rising in his heart.

He used to believe that as long as he kept cultivating, he could ensure that the people around him would no longer get hurt.

But fate often goes against one’s desires; the stronger his cultivation became, the more danger his loved ones encountered.
