Chapter 380: Saving that girl.
After that, Tang Yin didn't ask any more questions and told her some of the things he could do to increase the sect's power, which had a lot to do with things used in the Higher World, changing practically all the cultivation rules within the sect.
He could finally demonstrate the power of a Higher World in this place, and although he doesn't have much time, it should certainly be quite an impressive improvement going forward.
Once he finished, Tang Yin took his leave while asking for the Lu Xia girl's direction.
After that, he arrived at Lu Xia's courtyard, and this place was filled with a terrible aura of death.
It was more obvious to him now that he controlled a Natural Law, so he frowned and walked straight into the courtyard.
She was not being attended by anyone, not even a maid was in this place.
Throughout the courtyard, Tang Yin simply noticed a presence and following it, found Lu Xia deathly pale, but her body the same.
There was no sign of illness except for the pallor on her body.
"Who?" she asked softly without opening her eyes. Even that was difficult for her, and Tang Yin smiled.
"Someone you never expected to come." He said, and she frowned but opened her eyes dramatically after remembering the voice.
"Tang Yin?" she asked hesitantly, and he came into her view, surprising her.
She hadn't expected to see him here at a time when even she didn't understand her condition, but she believed would die.
"You..." She said, but she didn't know what to say either.
No one dared to enter this place, for they thought it was some strange contagious virus that had struck her, so it was best to stay away from her.
But he was here? What the hell was he doing? She wondered, and Tang Yin shrugged.
"Yes, I am. It's been a while since the last time, Lu Xia. And I can see that my words came true." Tang Yin said sitting beside her, and she simply averted her gaze.
"What are you doing here? I'm going to die shortly and I might have some strange virus in my body." She said, and Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders.
"Virus? So that's why it's so lonely." He spoke.
"That's right, they all left." She said, but her words sounded lonely.
Having no one around at the time when you're about to die must be hard. After all, in your best years, they were there, but when you're down and you need them, no one is.
It's unfortunate, but that's humanity.
So, Tang Yin smiled.
"Don't worry, you won't die. I already promised my master, it would be a shame to let you die." He said smiling, and she turned her head to look at him again.
"What do you mean?" she asked staring at his face.
She couldn't even get excited.
She could barely move and felt every limb as if it weighed so much while her bones ached intensely. Still, she held it in and didn't reveal this.
Although, of course, she looked pitiful and couldn't even open her eyes very wide.
"Do you think I came here to keep you company in your last hours? Do you think I'm close to you, after what you did?" he asked mockingly, and she then felt that he came here for another purpose unrelated to what she thought.
But what was it?
Although, in this moment of death, she smiled guiltily a little.
"I'm sorry... I was a bit stupid before." She said, apologizing for her past attitudes, something Tang Yin didn't mind.
"Well, don't you care to know what's going on with you? The truth is that your teacher died because of the same thing and it's because of her that you're like this." Tang Yin said, and she frowned, remaining silent.
Of course, she suspected that this had something to do with her teacher. She thought she had put some virus on her to test.
But she couldn't figure out what it was.
Tang Yin took her silence as an affirmative that she wanted to listen, so he started talking and told her each of the things that left her in that state while also showing her a small book with the alchemy technique she had practiced.
She was in shock after hearing him say it was because of that. She always thought that the alchemy technique she was practicing was too good and she couldn't have any problems, but who would have thought that it was that same technique that was now killing her?
And who would think that this little boy who, some time ago, was weaker than her is now her last hope for life?
Although, for some reason, she felt didn't deserve it.
So, when Tang Yin told her his condition to keep her alive, she agreed without hesitation.
"I will pay you everything if you save me and I will devote myself to living for you from now on, if you want to kill me then, I will gladly die." She said with difficulty and then closed her mouth a little.
There were some last words she wanted to say, but her pride wouldn't let her.
Still...
What good was pride? So, she swallowed her pride and closed her eyes.
"Please... Save me... The truth is I don't want to die..." She said with difficulty and then slightly clenched her teeth, but she realized that even that small gesture caused great pain in her head, so she soon loosened her mouth and became quiet again.
Tang Yin smiled at this and nodded at her.
"I'll spend a lot on you, so you'd better make yourself useful." He said and took out a spirit herb from his inventory.
After doing so, he took out a spiritual pot and made a spiritual bath with it.
Then he took Lu Xia in his arms and put her in there to bathe.
Giving her various spiritual herbs afterward.
These Spiritual Herbs together increased her life expectancy.
Obviously, she did not have a virus. She simply ran out of vitality or life expectancy, as the alchemical technique she was using consumed her.
After doing that, Tang Yin blocked her spiritual inputs to prevent her from cultivation and then grabbed her by the head to block her alchemical technique so that she could not use it again.
