Chapter 1507: Death to Life; Irresistible Lure!

The dan bead melted in Lei Dongtian’s mouth. He groaned and felt the warm flow in his chest. He felt so comfortable, like bathing in the warm water. The life energy kept running away slowly, but there was a powerful stream of new life energy pouring into his body. Nobody knew whether he was going to make it or not, but it was sure that he wouldn’t die for some time...

“You can take your hands away now. If you keep doing this to keep him alive, you will die before he does!” Ye Xiao said in a low voice, talking to Feng’er.

“Take my hands away? Is he alright now?” Feng’er was surprised and happy.

“I just fed him one Temporary Life Dan bead, so I think even death itself will have to wait for some time before your man dies.”

Ye Xiao blandly said, “In other words, it is impossible that he will die in the short future. You can stay here and take care of him now because I need to get you some medicines. It must be difficult for your big brother. He has suffered so much, but you guys eventually made it to my place. He won’t die!”

Feng’er couldn’t believe what had happened. She looked down at Lei Dongtian. The wound in his chest was still terrible, but he looked much better and comfortable. His breath became more stable, and it was unbelievable! Without her life energy pouring in, he was still lively, even more lively than before! He breathed just like an ordinary man!

It was absolutely a miracle!

She wondered what magical dan the Temporary Life Dan was. It did not cure the wounds of the patient, but the patient was still back to life. What a marvelous dan bead that saved a man from death!

Feng’er knew best about Lei Dongtian’s condition. Now she knew that he was safe, and Ye Xiao said he was going to prepare some medicine for her man, so she cried in tears. Tears fell off her eyes like two strings of pearls dropping to the floor.

When she knew there was nothing that could save Lei Dongtian from death, she didn’t cry. She just kept thinking about spending the rest of her life to stay with the man she loved. She would love to accompany the man to the nether world, even to be destroyed thoroughly... She just wanted to stay with him...

Now, as she knew that Lei Dongtian still had a chance to survive, the surprise and joy pushed her tears out. The strong happiness aroused the fright and anxiety that she had been holding deep inside her heart... Now all those emotions burst out and broke her.

Besides, she had given out so much of her life energy to keep the man alive, so she was powerless and almost fell to the floor...

“He ate the dan bead, and it will keep him alive for quite some time. I will make some dan beads for him, and those will save his life.” Ye Xiao said in a low voice and said, “However, I hope you all know about the rules of the Hall of Life and Death. You know, don’t you?”

“Hold him up, and find a room to stay with him. I will go get you when the dan beads are ready... Oh, right. My Hall of Life and Death doesn’t allow vulgar things. When you finish putting the man on the bed here, get away the bed of yours!”

“Sure... We will... No problem! Thank you, marvelous doctor... master... Thank you, for your treatment, master!”

The four people were all overjoyed. The master of the Hall of Life and Death only used one dan bead, and it was already much better than everything the other dan makers and pharmacists did. He was truly the marvelous doctor who saved a man’s life from death!

What? He didn’t call himself a doctor?

He must be humble! If such a capable dan maker and pharmacist could actually stay this humble, he must be a marvelous doctor! It was a virtue to be humble, but people should never underestimate him!

Apparently, these four people had become Ye Xiao’s faithful fans!

The two men who were carrying the bed, walking through the tunnel inside the fortress of trees. There were two tunnels ahead of them, and there were rooms on both sides of the tunnels...

There were numbers on the doors of the rooms, from one to twenty-four.

The four of them chose to stay in Room One. As they put Lei Dongtian on the bed of the room, they finally took a breath of relief. Now they realized how badly they were hurt. They felt pain everywhere.

Luckily, the purple qi had filled the air in the room. In such a special space, they recovered fast only after resting for a few rounds of energy cycles. Feng’er had used her own life energy to keep Lei Dongtian alive, so her cultivation was damaged, and her life was weakened. Her health condition had reached the lowest point. The purple qi in the air didn’t bring her back the lost energy, but it stopped her from getting worse!

The biggest problem had been solved, so they were all smiling.

Their big brother got so severely injured, yet was still alive, and still had a chance to survive, which meant they could still travel the martial world together when he was well!

As long as they were all together, they wouldn’t care serving somebody else. Being alive was the most important thing in the martial world, wasn’t it?

“Oh... I... Damn... My toes... l lost three toes... When did that happen?” Du Qingkuang murmured, “Holy hell... Who chopped them off from me... How do I stand firmly like a mountain now...? God damn it... Ouch, it hurts...”

The other three all started to laugh when they heard the complaint.

Their laugh sounded happy and relieved...

That was right. They had forgotten themselves because they were so concentrated on their big brother...

“Du Qingkuang!” Feng’er said to Du Qingkuang, but she didn’t say anything. It seemed she was hesitating.

What should she say? How was she going to turn him down once and for all, but make sure he wouldn’t get hurt at the same time?

She loved a man and hadn’t been loved back in the past. Now things were different. Her beloved one was dying, and she finally got to know that the man she loved did love her back. Her love was completed, but what about the other man who had loved her all those years? What should she do to refuse the love of the man without hurting him? What should she say?

She was always frank and straightforward, but she was hesitating now because she didn’t want to hurt anybody. She was speechless!

“I am here!” Du Qingkuang hastily stood up and answered solemnly, “What can I do for you, my lady?”

Feng’er was shocked. She realized that she had worried too much. Du Qingkuang had already given up when he knew that she and his big brother were in love with each other. Du Qingkuang had let it go, yet she still bothered herself... That aside, she blushed and said angrily, “You...”

The others laughed.

Now they were even happier.

Du Qingkuang had finally got through the difficulty and accepted Feng’er as the lady of his big brother. Whether he did let it go for real or not, he decided to accept the truth.

Lei Dongtian’s eyes were filled with joy, and he said in a hoarse voice, “The master of the Hall of Life and Death is such a marvelous doctor... He does have the capability of deciding one’s life and death... The dan bead he put into my mouth is so incredible... I can feel that the wounds aren’t cured yet, but I can also feel my life energy rising again... I am safe, at least for now. That is incredible... I even want to stand up and walk around now...”

The others were all frightened, so they stopped him. “No, no way! Don’t even think about it! The master of the Hall of Life and Death told us clearly. The dan bead is marvelous, but it won’t last for long. You have that feeling only because the dan bead is too powerful. You can’t move now. Don’t waste the energy from the dan bead, or it may be used up soon.”

Feng’er raised her eyebrows and said, “Stay in bed and behave! Or I will knock you out with one palm hit!”

“Ah, hah hah hah... What a fierce lady! This is domineering!” The three men all laughed and joked about it.

Feng’er blushed, but in her heart, she felt sweet.

Finally, she got what she was after. Everything was clear. The man she loved did love her back. It was such a great fortune...

However, she wondered if the man was going to survive this!

She believed that the master of the Hall of Life and Death could save her man!

They stopped Lei Dongtian immediately, and when they saw the big hole in Lei Dongtian’s chest in blood, they were scared.

‘If the master of the Hall of Life and Death can save a man who is this severely wounded, he must be able to go against nature’s law!’

“Brothers, you have done so much for me... I know...” Lei Dongtian wanted to take a breath and got up, but the unbearable pain in his chest stopped him. The spiritual energy that was added to him ran away faster. He was an expert in cultivation as well, so he understood that the life energy would go faster and faster because it did not belong to him originally. If he made any reckless moves, the energy would go even faster, so he stopped, and talked to the others in a weak voice. “When I am well, we must talk about this problem... Should we stay here to serve the Hall of Life and Death, or should we promise one thing instead.”

Feng’er looked around and said, “I can do either. What he gives us today is too much to pay for. I don’t think it is a difficult choice.”

“That’s right. She is right. What the master is doing is a great favor for us. I will do whatever he asks to return the favor.” The youngest man nodded and said.

“I think it is good to join the Hall of Life and Death...” Du Qingkuang laughed and said, “At least, we won’t fear for injuries anymore... Safety always comes first in the martial world.”

They all laughed.

After that, they all agreed with Du Qingkuang.

They just got severely injured...

Things were never going to be smooth in the martial world, and they would definitely get injured again someday.

They used to have ten people when they started to travel the martial world, but after several decades, five of them died!

A cultivator in the martial world could die at any second.

If they could get one more chance to survive the unpredictable danger in the future, why would they refuse it? The Hall of Life and Death seemed to force people to work for them, but it was actually an irresistible lure for every cultivator in the martial world!
