Chapter 847: Chapter 852: Unbelievable (Part 2)
The Third Elder and Fourth Elder, upon approaching from a distance, repeatedly confirmed with Lin Xi if it was truly unnecessary for them to stand guard.
What if someone comes?
Didn’t you just ask them to stand guard?
Saying that during needle treatment, one must not be disturbed by outsiders.
But at this moment, they saw their previously barely-breathing brothers on the ground move their hands slightly.
If it were just a slight movement, it would be nothing unusual.
However, as they supported themselves with one hand, their bodies leaned slightly to one side. Is this?
Are they about to rise?
What situation is this?
Weren’t the brothers gravely injured, having difficulty even making a single move?
How do they now have the strength to get up from the ground?
The two were so shocked that they froze halfway, simultaneously rubbing their eyes vigorously.
It must be because they were too eager for their brothers to recover, thus causing hallucinations?
Yes, that must be it!
At this moment, Zhou Yan, Shangguan Nichang, and Avril Jolie, standing not far from the elder brothers, were expected to be the first to notice the changes around them, besides Lin Xi.
However, the three were left a bit dazed by Lin Xi’s previous words and didn’t notice immediately.
It was not until the elder brothers supported themselves with one hand, and sat up from the ground like ordinary people waking up, that they finally realized.
Zhou Yan opened her mouth, wanting to say something with a face full of shock, but nothing came out.
Avril Jolie directly covered her mouth. What is happening? Could it be exactly as Lin Xi said just now? That’s too fast!
Is Huaxia’s traditional medicine so powerful now?
This is immensely more powerful than legends!
Shangguan Nichang remained motionless, but the excitement on her face was evidently visible.
Finally, finally, finally, she could be a little more at ease!
Nearby, the Third Elder and Fourth Elder’s eyes were rounded and nearly popped out of their sockets.
What happened to the elder brothers?
Could it be a last burst of energy before death?
Does that mean they’re about to die?
In the next moment, the two urgently rushed toward their elder brothers.
From afar, apart from Lin Xi, the ones paying the closest attention were the Grand Elder and Second Elder.
And of course, this person was the Taoist-robed elder.
Though gravely injured and near death, his innate strength made his observation and perception unmatched by anyone present, except Lin Xi.
"Is this real?" he murmured.
"How can this be real?"
"This is absolutely impossible!!!"
"This must be fake; it’s an illusion..."
Before he could finish, a suffocating sensation from within choked his words.
Meanwhile, the Grand Elder and Second Elder sat up from the ground and quickly stood up, as if uninjured.
Yet, judging by their expressions of disbelief and the lingering wounds on their bodies, it was clear they were indeed injured before.
Having just started running, the Third and Fourth Elders halted abruptly, nearly stumbling.
"Elder brother, second brother, what happened?"
"Is the last burst of energy really that strong?"
"Third brother, have you ever heard of this?"
"I haven’t; Fourth brother, have you?"
"I have not; could this be an undead revival?"
"Maybe it’s really..."
"Shut your stars; what are you thinking, wishing we’d die?" Suddenly, a loud shout came from ahead.
The voice was from the Second Elder, bursting with vigor, unlike an undead revival!
This startled the Third and Fourth Elders; what was happening?
Just a moment ago, the elder brothers clearly had a deathly aura; they even checked, ensuring no life was left.
How are they now like people without a scratch?
Could this be undead revival due to King of Soldiers pinnacle power, hence so strong?
The reason they were startled wasn’t due to the undead revival query, but because the second brother’s temper has always been terrifyingly strong, causing fear in the family, except with the elder brother.
At this scene, Lin Xi simply couldn’t bear watching any longer and addressed the startled elders, "You two elders, don’t worry; their injuries are almost entirely healed!"
"Just recuperate for half a month, then they’ll be fully recovered!"
The two elders, "..."
The three women beside overheard Lin Xi’s words and, upon seeing the Elders stand looking unscathed, finally truly believed it.
Speaking of certainty, the ones most convinced were the Grand Elder and Second Elder themselves.
Though incredulous, the facts lay bare before them, feeling their bodies, excluding some minor losses and superficial wounds, were unscathed.
They were just like their usual selves.
Once the two comprehended it, their respect for Lin Xi, this youthful Innate Powerhouse, grew even deeper.
In the next moment, they approached Lin Xi, bowed deeply, and the Grand Elder solemnly announced, "Mr. Lin, whatever you need from the Shangguan family in the future, we will comply without hesitation!"
He can be said to be the most powerful and respected elder in the Shangguan family.
Thus, his words practically represented the entire family’s decision.
Even the family patriarch is a junior to the Grand Elder.
As the patriarch, in the absence of the Four Elders, he assumes full authority.
Of course, the Grand Elder’s decisiveness in offering this sentiment was because associating with someone like Lin Xi was indeed a great boon to the Shangguan family.
Although he expressed such intentions, there’s rarely anything that someone as powerful as Lin Xi might need from the Shangguan family, especially since Lin Xi already had significant influence in Chuzhou City.
The Third Elder and Fourth Elder, having come to terms, displayed expressions of speechless excitement as they alternated their gaze between the brothers and Lin Xi.
To them, the happiest moment today was this.
And despite the second brother casting them a stern glance, they didn’t react with their usual fear, but instead responded with silly, persistent smiles.
At this moment, Shangguan Nichang’s gaze toward Lin Xi softened considerably.
Beside her, Zhou Yan, while rejoicing for the elders, inwardly huffed at Lin Xi, "This little pervert, seems he’s captured quite a bit of Miss Shangguan’s heart!"
Following that, the Grand Elder queried Lin Xi, "Mr. Lin, shall we proceed to that palace ruin now?"
"Perhaps we might still find some treasures!"
Of course, having heard Avril Jolie’s explanation about Spirit Stones earlier, and the pouch containing dozens of Spirit Stones hung at his belt, he was eager to acquire more.
Upon thinking this, he removed the pouch of Spirit Stones, handed it to Lin Xi, saying, "By the way, Mr. Lin, this is what we found earlier; now it’s yours, just as a small reward for saving us!"
This gesture was not only intended for him and the second brother, but also for Miss Shangguan and the third and fourth brothers.
For if not for Lin Xi, they would have surely perished today!
