Chapter 501: Chapter 359: Changsheng remains unconscious

Upon hearing the announcement of Yue Xilou’s death sentence, Si Xi’s face instantly relaxed...

But Gu Changsheng’s heart suddenly lifted, his large phoenix eyes flaring open!

"Stop!"

A furious and unstoppable roar erupted, carrying a fierce inner strength!

Borjigin Nian was momentarily stunned, her face still set in the resolute expression from before, her hand resting on the trigger of the short crossbow...

What had she heard?

How could she have heard Gu Changsheng’s voice?

The three companions of Si Xi also couldn’t believe their eyes, gaping in shock.

Had they heard Lady Changsheng’s voice?

How was that possible?

It must be an illusion!

Power transmission is a matter of life and death; the recipient is surely unconscious!

Because if the recipient weren’t unconscious, they couldn’t possibly endure the excruciating pain of bone marrow cleansing! They would likely bite their tongues and commit suicide halfway through!

In the stunned silence of the crowd, Gu Changsheng furiously shouted, then stood up and turned around...

The expressions of the few people below the platform, akin to seeing a ghost, were momentarily ignored!

The crucial point was Borjigin Nian’s finger on the bowstring, aimed directly at the chilling, ghostly gleaming arrowhead on the platform!

A Bone-Piercing Arrow! The arrow wasn’t released until it could pierce through bone!

Damn it, they’re playing for real! They’re seriously after his life!

Yue Xilou was still in the posture of transmitting power, his hands stretched forward, but now, suddenly, there was nothing in front of him...

This change came so abruptly that Yue Xilou was somewhat incapable of accepting it!

He must have died, to be seeing such hallucinations...

During the power transmission, their inner strengths intertwined; how could she have possibly freed herself from his hands?

Not only could she not free herself, but he could not either!

Gu Changsheng, face flushed with fury, stood on the platform, one hand on his hip, the other pointing angrily at Borjigin Nian below, who was holding the lethal weapon, and burst out, "Borjigin Nian! How dare you come to my house to kill my family member! Have you lost your mind or has a donkey kicked your head?"

"I..." Accused Borjigin Nian looked bewildered, only able to stare with her deep eyes at the person before her, "I... I did not..."

Having heard their Lady speak again, the three companions of Si Xi regained their senses from the shock, their faces immediately filled with ecstatic joy!

The power transmission cannot be interrupted unless one person dies or... it succeeds!

A life and death ordeal, a rare chance in a hundred years, and they had miraculously experienced it!

This... This surprise came so suddenly, they blinked and swallowed, still a bit slow to fully comprehend...

Hearing Borjigin Nian’s rebuttal, Gu Changsheng grew even more furious!

Damn it, the weapon was in her hand, caught red-handed, and yet she dared to argue!

Gu Changsheng’s liver hurt from anger, damn it, Yue Xilou almost got fatally shot just now!

And now she was perfectly fine! Had Si Xi and Borjigin Nian gone mad trying to kill Yue Xilou?

Suddenly, the steaming fury of Gu Changsheng made him want to storm down and confront them, to argue it out!

Ideal is plump, reality is bony!

Gu Changsheng had just taken a step when his body suddenly, uncontrollably, fell off the platform!

"Gu Changsheng!"

"My Lady!"

"Sir!"

This accident came even more suddenly; before they could recover from their joy, they all cried out and rushed down the stairs.

Unfortunately, though fast, they were not faster than gravity!

They scrambled over, just in time to catch Gu Changsheng the moment she hit the ground, preventing her from having a close encounter with Mother Earth!

But from that high platform, Gu Changsheng ferociously rolled all the way down without stopping...

As Yue Xilou turned back emotionlessly, like a puppet on strings, he just saw Gu Changsheng wobble like a roly-poly toy before crashing down, and was about to taunt him when suddenly his chest tightened, and he too began to fall to the side!

"Yue Xilou!" Sharp-eyed Borjigin Nian, squeezed to one side by Si Xi’s trio, promptly scrambled up the stairs.

Si Xi’s trio only glanced up briefly, then immediately returned their anxious gazes to the Lady in their arms.

"My Lady! My Lady! Wake up!" Seeing his Lady covered in blood and with eyes tightly shut, Si Xi, whose heart had just relaxed, felt it tense up again, calling out anxiously.

"Lady, don’t scare Si Xi, Si Xi is easily frightened and can’t bear it!" Si Xi shook a few more times, but seeing no sign of his wife waking up, his eyes reddened and he looked pleadingly at the two people beside him.

Kun Nu and Ning Er looked anxiously at each other, also unsure of what to do.

"Could the power transmission have failed?" Si Xi murmured in a doubtful whisper.

At these words, Ning Er was startled and his eyes widened!

Kun Nu’s reaction was very direct, he stretched out a finger and placed it under Gu Changsheng’s nose, his voice as solid and grand as his robust frame, "He’s breathing!"

If he’s breathing, that means he’s not dead!

If he’s not dead, that means he’s still alive!

Undertaking such a heaven-defying act as power transmission, if one does not die, it means success!

"What are you still waiting for? Help them back and go find a doctor!" Borjigin Nian, supporting the unconscious Yue Xilou, gingerly descended the stairs. Seeing the three people staring blankly like dazed chickens, he suddenly let out a bellow, "Stop dawdling, or madam here will get mad at you!"

This earth-shaking roar instantly brought Si Xi and the others back to their senses.

"Quick, quick, help Lady and Master Lou back!" Si Xi hurriedly supported his wife and urgently spoke, "Lord Kun Nu, hurry and find Uncle Song, bring Uncle Song to fetch the doctor!"

Upon hearing this, Kun Nu nodded, flashed, and his colossal frame whisked outside rapidly.

The three left behind scrambled with two bodies toward the Medicine Tower.

His wife was a doctor, the Medicine Tower was fully equipped with all the necessary medicines and facilities!

Now was indeed the most appropriate time to set them up in the Medicine Tower!

Hearing that his wife had fainted and they needed to summon a doctor, Uncle Song instantly panicked.

Seeing this, Kun Nu, without a second word, hoisted him up and went on his way!

Kun Nu knew where Chief Hu of the Liuzhou Medical Guild’s home was located, so he headed there first!

With his wife unconscious, Mr. Ban Shan was extremely anxious, holding the Young Master and staying immobile outside the room. The servants of the Gu Residence, leaderless, suddenly plunged into chaos!

"Keep quiet everyone, carry on with your tasks, Lady will surely be alright! Song Lin, Song Mu, go stand guard at the front yard, welcome the doctors in when they arrive. Song He, Song Bo, you two head to the kitchen to boil water, the rest follow me into the Medicine Tower to prepare what’s needed!" Dong Lei, who had been knocked out and then revived by Kun Nu, heard about his wife’s fainting and the house in disarray, and quickly took charge like a bossy elder sister!

Upon hearing this, the young men of the house hurriedly dispersed, each attending to their duties!

Kun Nu, his physique huge like a small hillock and immensely strong, carried Uncle Song as swiftly as a gust of wind.

In an instant, Hu Yihai’s front door was in sight.

No time for knocking, Kun Nu took a deep breath and with Uncle Song, leaped over the high eaves, heading straight for the bedroom in Hu’s backyard.

Tan Nv’s condition had stabilized and improved. Hu Yihai, together with the people of the Liuzhou Medical Guild, shamelessly lingered at the Gu Residence for so long that finally, Lady Changsheng could not stand it anymore. She claimed that this horde of people was eating and drinking her house into poverty. She was adamant and today finally succeeded in sweeping them out the door!

Having nested in the Gu Residence for so long, aside from visiting the medical hall for consultations, they hadn’t even returned to their own homes!

Wouldn’t this severely upset their wives back home?

Women in their thirties and forties are in their prime, and bodily needs are hard to ignore, no matter how understanding and learned you are!

Like a monk who long stopped ringing the temple bell, Hu Yihai was very happy to have his wife turn into a fierce tiger, enthusiastically participating and enjoying it!

A little absence makes the heart grow fonder, dry wood meets a fierce fire, wouldn’t it ignite with the slightest spark?

Thus, the elderly couple was rightfully and thoroughly firing up the main bedroom when suddenly, rapid knocking at the door...

Hu Yihai’s cheeks quivered, his Fu Manchu mustache twitching, and he instantly wilted!

"Who is it! In the middle of the night, can’t you let a man sleep?" It was bad enough not letting a person sleep, but damn it, still interfering with personal business, Hu Yihai’s anger immediately flared even more!

He was already of such an age! How hard was it for him to get intimate with his old wife!

And to be interrupted!

Whoever it was would be infuriated!

"Chief Hu, it’s me, Old Man Song!" Uncle Song continued pounding on the door, panickedly shouting, "My wife has fainted!"

Hearing it was Old Man Song, and that his wife had collapsed, Hu Yihai was jolted awake and leaped out of bed.

"Clothes, clothes!" Madam Hu, although truly annoyed, still reminded him.

Only then did Hu Yihai realize his bare body and dived back into bed, rummaging for clothes.

"Old Brother Song, hold on! Just a minute!" Hu Yihai shouted while clumsily dressing himself.

"Chief Hu, please hurry over to our house quietly, I’ll find others!" Uncle Song, hearing the response, said this and then rushed off with Kun Nu to another medical hall.

"Medicine God Lady Changsheng has fainted? Isn’t she supposed to be the doctor?" Watching her husband fumble around, Madam Hu hastily got up to help, her face showing involuntary embarrassment as she complained, "You’ve almost grown roots at the Gu Residence, finally back for a bit and still..."

At this, Madam Hu shyly lowered her head, the implications clear in her words...

Hu Yihai put on a woolen shawl over his coat, and hearing his wife’s words, quickly spoke to soothe her, "Don’t be mad, don’t be mad, Lady Changsheng fainting is a great matter, besides you have to believe me, we’re not the only ones interrupted, didn’t you hear Old Brother say? He’s heading to the next house!"

Thinking that others were in the same plight as they were, Madam Hu’s face softened slightly, shared misery always feeling better....
