Chapter 767: An Odd Thought
Duan Feiyu felt delighted and surprised at first, but then felt sad. These days, he had been spending a lot of time with Duan Xiaomo, but Duan Xiaomo looked at him as if he wasn’t even there. Just now he had done everything to persuade him, but Duan Xiaomo wouldn’t eat no matter what. Why had he become so obedient the moment he saw Ling Chuxi? What exactly was going on?
Could it be that this wasn’t his aunty’s son and was Ling Chuxi’s biological one instead? Duan Feiyu looked dubiously at Ling Chuxi’s face, then at Duan Xiaomo’s face that clearly looked like his. He sighed and removed the thought from his mind. If Grandfather knew what he was thinking, he would have slapped him into the next century.
After finishing breakfast, Duan Xiaomo remained by Ling Chuxi’s side as he looked at the sky. His eyes were still as empty and lost as before, but there was a hint of warmth in them.
“Chuxi, I’ll trouble you to check Xiaomo for a bit,” Duan Qingchen said to Ling Chuxi.
“Alright.” Ling Chuxi could clearly see that Duan Xiaomo was close to her, and even a little reliant. Although she did not know the reason why, she still felt pity for him.
“Aren’t we inviting Elder Su and the rest over?” Duan Feiyu asked in astonishment.
He knew Ling Chuxi’s identity, but did not believe that Ling Chuxi’s medical skills could surpass Su Yizhi’s and the others. In the medical field, innate talent was one thing, but experience was definitely necessary. With Ling Chuxi’s age, how could she possibly be better than Su Yizhi and the rest?
“No need.” Before Ling Chuxi could speak, Duan Qingchen had already replied.
Duan Feiyu looked at his grandfather questioningly. He did not dare to say more, but he silently disagreed.
Ling Chuxi could guess what Duan Feiyu was thinking, but did not take it to heart. Honestly speaking, if she hadn’t learnt the other stream of Golden Pill Sect’s medical skills in her other life, she would not have had the confidence to pursue this without Su Yizhi and the rest. Naturally, this was something that could never be made known to any outsider.
Organizing her thoughts, Ling Chuxi used the Mind Training Chant and her mind very quickly fell into emptiness. This time, she did not check Duan Xiaomo’s meridians, but instead used her own consciousness to probe Duan Xiaomo’s mind ocean.
Seconds went by. Duan Qingchen looked at Ling Chuxi, his gaze serious. He could tell what Ling Chuxi was doing, and knew that using one’s divine consciousness to invade another’s mind was actually very risky. Therefore, it was impossible for him to not be nervous.
Seeing his grandfather’s expression, Duan Feiyu also started to get nervous.
Ling Chuxi frowned. The more she checked, the worse she felt. The current situation of Duan Xiamo’s mind ocean was worse than before, with the grids even tighter and his mind more broken. It had only taken a couple of days. If another period of time passed again, perhaps Duan Xiaomo’s mind would fall into total chaos, and he would lose his sanity completely.
Although Duan Xiaomo’s current situation was not good, at least he was still a little close to Ling Chuxi and could remember his name. The Duan Xiaomo of before might have even lost his most basic bodily functions by now.
Finally, Ling Chuxi opened her eyes and returned to reality. There was a little helplessness in her heart though. Such an odd disease, she hadn’t seen it or heard of it. She could not think of a good treatment method, but she also couldn’t allow this to prolong. The longer they dragged things out, the worse the situation would become.
