“How could I leave my wife and run off on my own” replied Zu An grimly.

Looking at Chu Chuyans pale face and blood stained dress, he felt a bitter feeling in his chest.

He quickly took out some recovery medicine and fed it to her.

“Quick, eat this.

While it isnt as miraculous as the medicine I gave you earlier, its still medicine concocted by Divine Physician Ji.

Itll do wonders to your recovery.”

Many of them were given to him by Ji Xiaoxi.

Considering how much Ji Dengtu doted on his daughter, he wouldnt scrimp on this.

“Its no use.

My ki meridians are already ruined.” Chu Chuyan shook her head.

Her voice was incredibly calm despite her plight, as if she had already resigned herself to fate.

“Who says that it wont work! Theres definitely a way out of this! Well look for Divine Physician Ji afterward.

Im sure that hell be able to figure something out!” Zu An insisted vehemently as he stuffed the best medicine in his possession into Chu Chuyans mouth.

As perverted as Ji Dengtu was, his medical skill was the real deal.

Besides, even if he couldnt do anything about it, surely there would be something in this huge world of cultivation that would work!

And even if there was nothing in this world that would work, he still had the Keyboard with him! The items from its lottery might just be able to create the miracle required to treat her!

“Cough cough~” Chu Chuyan had never been treated so crudely before, and it made her both embarrassed and agitated.

However, she didnt even have the strength to move right now, let alone fight against him.

“It looks like youre on good terms with Ji Xiaoxi.” Chu Chuyan noticed that the sachets holding the medicine bottles had been embroidered with flowers, and there was even a faint fragrance coming from them.

It was clearly meticulously prepared by a woman.

“I told you that your husband is popular with women,” Zu An teased.

However, he suddenly recalled that she was already in a bad condition and that it would be bad to anger her.

So, he quickly changed the topic and said, “We encountered an army of zombies in a valley a while ago.

I told her to escape and seek help while I lure them away, and out of worry, she gave these to me.”

Chu Chuyan sighed softly and said, “Why are you explaining this to me”

“Im just afraid that youll be jealous,” replied Zu An sheepishly.

Chu Chuyan didnt respond to him anymore.

By then, Shi Kun and the others had already turned their sights over.

Shi Kuns face was so dark that it looked as if it was going to drip ink.

“Young miss Chu, you really do impress me.

I didnt think that you would have such a powerful move that allows you to even deal with the Devouring Kun.

However, you ended up crippling yourself for that.

Was it worth it”

He viewed Chu Chuyan as his ideal wife and did everything he could to attain her, only for her to be crippled right before his eyes.

There was no way his clan would allow him to marry a cripple like her.

With her beautiful appearance, even if she had lost her cultivation, he would still have been more than willing to bring her in as a concubine to serve him.

However, her injuries were so severe that it was unlikely that she would survive this ordeal.

Years of planning had gone to vain just like that.

He had even resorted to using his greatest trump card, but it all ended up for naught.

How could he possibly not be disappointed

Qiao Xueying had a complicated look on her face.

While she had entered the Chu clan with ulterior motives, the years she had spent together with Chu Chuyan had made the two of them as close as sisters.

She honestly hoped that she could marry the young master.

In her view, only the Sixth Young Master of the Shi clan was worthy of becoming the young miss husband.

No matter how she looked at Zu An, he wasnt worthy of her in any way.

She never thought that Chu Chuyan would rather cripple herself than to give in to Shi Kun.

It made her feel deeply guilty, for she knew that she was responsible for forcing Chu Chuyan to this point too.

She reproached herself for the decisions she had made.

Meanwhile, Chu Chuyan gazed into the sky despite having heard Shi Kuns question.

She wasnt interested in answering him at all.

Zu An noticed that there was hardly any focus in her pupils at all.

He realized that she wasnt looking at the sky but blanking out.

Her heart had succumbed to despair—she had already given up.

Her body temperature was frighteningly cold.

Holding onto her felt like hugging a piece of ice that had been frozen for over a thousand years, chilling Zu An down to his bones.

If even hugging her was enough to make him so uncomfortable, it was hard to imagine just how cold she must be feeling at the moment.

During this short period of time, Zu An had already inspected her body with his ki.

An ordinary persons ki meridians should have been overflowing with vitality, but Chu Chuyans looked like the aftermath of an explosion.

It was tattered and suffused with an air of desolation.

She was even weaker than an ordinary human in her current condition, let alone regaining her cultivation.

The devastation of her meridians had crippled her, leaving her body almost paralyzed.

Zu An even suspected that she might have died right away had she not consumedFaith in Brother Spring prior to using the forbidden art.

Shi Kun didnt seem too displeased even though Chu Chuyan wasnt answering his question, Instead, he murmured to himself, “You were the number one prodigy of Brightmoon City.

Even if we look at the entire world, there are very few of our age who can compete with you.

You stood at such a high and lofty position, only to be reduced to a cripple now.

No, you are even less than a cripple.

In your current state, you wouldnt be able to tend to your daily life…”

“Shut up! No one will think that youre mute if you dont speak!” Zu An bellowed in frustration.

He was already worried about Chu Chuyans dying spirit, and yet Shi Kun still continued running his mouth.

Based on his limited knowledge regarding medicine, he knew that the effectiveness of any treatment had a huge part to do with the will of the patient.

If the patient had already given up hope, it would really be all hopeless.

“Hmph! Lowly trash like you would never understand the troubles we prodigies face!” Shi Kun looked at Zu An coldly.

“People like us are born superior to the masses.

We have our own pride and dignity, and we wont allow ourselves to be looked down upon or pitied.

Even if you managed to save her life, itd be nothing more than torture to her if she has to live her life as a cripple.”

“I dont object to you calling my wife a prodigy, but how is the like of you considered a prodigy too You cant even defeat my wife despite her injuries, and you had to bring out reinforcement like a loser.

That Devouring Kun was a ninth rank cultivator or something, right He still got destroyed by my wife in a single hit.

What about you then What are you capable of What rights do you have to be spoken on equal terms with her” Zu An was already feeling terrible just by looking at Chu Chuyans state, but this fellow still had to continue buzzing around like a pesky little fly, challenging the limits of his tolerance.

“…” Shi Kun.

Being told by a good-for-nothing whom he looked down upon that he wasnt a prodigy was a humiliation to him.

But he was indeed lacking compared to Chu Chuyan, making him unable to refute Zu Ans words at all.

You have successfully trolled Shi Kun for 314 Rage!

What are you acting so smug for Its not you who is formidable but Chu Chuyan!

Shi Kun could only console himself in such a manner.

He reminded himself that it was beneath him to bicker with people of Zu Ans caliber and calmed his emotions before carrying on, “I might be lacking, but I have a huge clan behind me.

Even at birth, Im already at a height where you can never hope to reach no matter how you struggle.

I dont say these words with the intention to brag; Im just conveying the truth to you.

The resources I have at my disposal far surpasses yours.

Its unlikely that youll ever be able to treat her no matter how you struggle, but its different for me.

“Not only can I preserve her life, but I can reconnect her ki meridians too.

If you truly love her, hand her over to me instead of selfishly keeping her by your side.

Youll only be stalling her future.”

Qiao Xueying nodded in agreement too.

“Indeed, the Shi clan has a lot of connections in the capital and the physicians in the imperial court.

They also have innumerable treasures at their disposal.

Their means definitely far surpassed what the Chu clan is able to do.

If you hand the young miss over to the Shi clan, the young master would definitely figure out a way to treat her!”

Seeing that Zu An had fallen into deep thought, a hint of a smile curled on Shi Kuns lips.

For someone of his position, there was no need to resort to violence all the time.

Sometimes, he could get things done just by appealing to a persons morality and utilizing some of the advantages he was blessed with.

He would try his best to cure Chu Chuyan upon receiving her, but admittedly, the chances of her making a full recovery were unlikely.

That being said, it should be easy to sustain her life, which meant that he would be able to keep her as a concubine by his side.

It was just a pity that she wouldnt be able to move, so he wouldnt be able to do a lot of fun stuff with her.

Thinking that Zu An had really been persuaded, Chu Chuyans eyes glazed with fear.

She feebly muttered, “D-dont hand me to anyone else.”

Even though she didnt like how lackadaisical and boastful Zu An was, at this very moment, she only felt at ease being by his side.

She was afraid that he would be moved by Shi Kuns words and hand her over to that scoundrel.

Zu An directed a smile at her and said, “Honey, what are you saying How could I possibly hand you to another man I was just thinking of another problem.”

Shi Kuns face darkened.

“Zu An, are you really intending on foiling young miss Chus future over your own selfishness!”

Zu An rolled his eyes.

“Please, Ive watched far too many dumb protagonists falling for such tricks on TV that I think that its an insult that you even think that you can fool me with something of this level.

Youre trying to stand at a moral high ground to criticize me just so that you can conceal those depraved thoughts in your mind.

I must really look gullible in your eyes, huh Ill take responsibility for my own wifes condition.

An outsider like you can scram!”

Shi Kuns face turned completely cold.

“What arrogant words! You cant even protect her well, and you still dream of treating her Young miss Chu, you might blame me right now, but Im certain youll understand my intention in the future!”

With a wave of his hand, he ordered his lackeys to kill Zu An.

While he figured that there were some restrictions to theKnock-You-Up Eyes skill, the pain he had suffered earlier was not something he would want to experience twice.

He wasnt willing to take the risk once more, so he ordered his lackeys to do the job instead.

Meanwhile, he would just wait patiently for an opportunity to leap in and end Zu Ans life for good!

“W-wait.” Chu Chuyan spoke up feebly.

Shi Kuns face lit up in delight.

He raised his hand to stop his subordinate and asked, “Young miss Chu, have you thought things through”

Ignoring him, Chu Chuyan turned to Zu An and said, “Kill me.”

“” Zu An was dumbfounded.

It was so abrupt that he was taken off guard.

However, Chu Chuyan got even more anxious upon seeing that Zu An wasnt reacting.

She quickly added, “Im already a cripple now, and you arent a match for them.

Are you intending to watch as I get humiliated by another man You should flee after killing me and inform my parents about what happened here.

Get them to avenge my death.

Thats all you can do for me now.”

Zu An exhaled deeply.

He slowly raised his sword up.

Chu Chuyan closed her eyes.

A peaceful smile appeared on her face as she waited for the descent of the sword that would claim her life.

“Zu An, you dare!” bellowed Shi Kun.

Even though Chu Chuyan had spoken softly, he was still able to hear everything loud and clear.

He would rush over to snatch Chu Chuyan over if he could, but he was afraid that a sudden move from his part would end up agitating Zu An into making a reckless move.

Zu An ignored him.

He pulled his sword downward, but the trajectory caused his stab himself in the chest instead.

Shi Kun and Qiao Xueying were dumbfounded.

They didnt expect Zu An to hurt himself.

What is that man up to

Qiao Xueying even wondered if Zu An was trying to commit a lovers suicide for Chu Chuyan.

Even though hes hateful, I didnt think that his feelings for the young miss would actually run this deep.
