Chapter 480

Chapter 480: Chapter 479 "No matter what, seven days and nights have passed, and Tianchen still hasn’t woken up. We can’t just sit here and wait to die; we must take Tianchen to the hospital!" Xiao Ya was originally a girl who didn’t talk much and was very gentle. In the seven days she spent with Luo Yan, Qi Ruxue, and Ye Qianwen, Xiao Ya always did things quietly and didn’t talk much. She never argued with Qi Ruxue and knew that Qi Ruxue also deeply loved Ye Tianchen. Although they could be considered love rivals, Xiao Ya never said a word. All she hoped for was Ye Tianchen’s safety.

Now, seeing that Qi Ruxue still wanted to follow Wuxue’s instructions and not move Tianchen, Xiao Ya was truly getting anxious. Although she didn’t know what the right thing to do was, she had thought that during these seven days and nights, Ye Tianchen would open his eyes and wake up. But now that time had passed, and Tianchen still remained this way, and his breathing even showed signs of weakening, Xiao Ya began to doubt the words of Wuxue and the others. If things continued this way, perhaps there was still hope if they took him to a big hospital. If they delayed another day or two, then it would really be too late. Therefore, she advocated for Ye Tianchen to be taken to a big hospital for examination and treatment.

"I disagree. How well do you understand Tianchen? Do you know him as well as I do? Since he ordered Wuxue and the others to have him sit cross-legged and not move after being brought back, it shows that Tianchen has his reasons. I believe in Tianchen’s decision. If we don’t listen to Tianchen and take him to some big hospital for treatment, that’s when it’s really possible that we could end up costing Tianchen his life!" Qi Ruxue also stood her ground firmly.

"You... Aunt Luo, Qianwen, we can’t keep dragging our feet. We should take Tianchen to the hospital for treatment; we must believe in science!" Seeing that Qi Ruxue would not stand on the same side as her, Xiao Ya immediately turned to Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen.

"Science? You think you’re the only one who’s been educated? I also studied abroad in the U.S., and I understand science more than you do. I just want to tell you that some things can’t be explained or solved by science alone. The human body, human culture, the history of human development are all filled with mysteries, and science can’t detect everything!" Qi Ruxue stepped in front of Xiao Ya and said.

"Then...then what do you suggest we do? Just let Tianchen’s condition deteriorate like this?" Xiao Ya’s eyes reddened; she also wanted to save Ye Tianchen, but she felt utterly powerless. As for Tianchen’s injuries, the surviving members of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings, including Wuxue, were all so powerful, beyond the scope of ordinary people’s thinking, and even they were at a loss. What could the four of them, as weak women, do?

Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen, both mother and daughter, were also at a loss, seeing Tianchen injured like this, especially when he was first brought back, looking like a bloodied man. They didn’t know how many tears they had shed, but what could they do? Now, seeing their son Tianchen in this state, with only a faint breath and not having opened his eyes for seven days and nights, even an ordinary person not eating or drinking for such a time would have already been on their last breath, let alone Ye Tianchen, who was already seriously injured? If things continued like this, no one dared guarantee that Tianchen would survive; at least from what they could see now, his condition was very bleak.

Upon hearing Xiao Ya’s question, Qi Ruxue also had nothing more to say. Although she and Xiao Ya were love rivals, their common wish at the moment was to see Ye Tianchen recover. Neither of them wanted to see Tianchen lose his life, and both being highly educated women, they certainly wouldn’t let small matters or jealousy affect their judgment at such a crucial time.

At that moment, Xiao Ya wiped the tears from her beautiful eyes and stepped in front of Qi Ruxue, looking at her seriously and said, "Sister Ruxue, I understand your feelings, but we have no other way right now. Taking Tianchen to a big hospital for treatment is the only method. What else can we do? If we don’t take Tianchen to the hospital for treatment, with his current condition, not eating or drinking for seven days and nights on top of severe injuries, how long can he hold on? Going to the hospital for treatment at least offers a glimmer of hope, the only path we have..."

Qi Ruxue glanced at Xiao Ya, knowing that what she said made sense. But having spent the most time with Ye Tianchen, she knew that he was a Superpower User and shouldn’t be viewed with ordinary perspectives. This also applied to members of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings like Wuxue, who were beyond the realm of ordinary people. Therefore, how they conducted themselves and what they said couldn’t be approached with an ordinary mindset; with them, there were bound to be extraordinary occurrences.

"I know what you mean, and I know you’re right, but..." Qi Ruxue didn’t know what was best to do and was quite troubled.

"Sister Ruxue, Aunt Luo, Qianwen, we really can’t delay any further. We should seize this glimmer of hope; surely we need to do something?" Xiao Ya said somewhat urgently, raising her voice.

Luo Yan, Ye Qianwen, and Qi Ruxue all looked at each other. Regardless of what each of them thought internally, at least one thing was the same: they all hoped that Ye Tianchen would wake up and recover.

"Right, Xiao Ya is correct. We should take Tianchen to the hospital for treatment. We can’t let him continue like this; at least the hospital has equipment, doesn’t it?" Luo Yan thought for a moment, then bit her lip and spoke up.

"Hmm, then let’s get brother to the hospital for treatment!" Ye Qianwen also nodded in agreement.

Qi Ruxue glanced at them and finally nodded, saying, "Since you’ve all decided, then okay. However, I think we should still call Wuxue and the others; after all, they have more means than we do..."

"There’s no need, we do not agree to take Big Brother to the hospital for treatment..."

Before Qi Ruxue could finish speaking, Wuxue, Wang Jie, Lin Duan, and Bao Tianglong entered the bedroom from the outside, each with a face full of exhaustion. It seemed that these seven days and nights had not been easy for them, especially with Ye Tianchen barely clinging to life, at any moment he might lose it, which was really worrisome.

This battle with the Japanese sect Beichen Ittoryu was the most brutal and perilous one the Thirteen Heavenly Kings had ever faced. With only thirteen of them against thirty experts from Beichen Ittoryu, all skilled in combat, they had nearly been wiped out. Fortunately, Ye Tianchen had held his own against Songben Xiajian, who lacked the virgin’s defloration to fully restore his battle prowess to its peak. Otherwise, the Thirteen Heavenly Kings would have certainly perished.

In this battle, three of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings had died, and there were four more seriously injured in the hospital. The remaining six members also suffered various injuries. As for the thirty experts from Beichen Ittoryu, including Songben Xiajian himself, all had been slain, not a single one left Capital City alive. The loss Beichen Ittoryu suffered this time was devastating and would be a heavy mark in their history.

Through this battle, Wuxue and the others realized that their own fighting strength was not yet formidable enough. To truly dominate the world, they had a long way to go. The thirty experts from Beichen Ittoryu might not even represent the strongest within the sect, and beyond Japan’s Beichen Ittoryu, there were other long-standing martial arts sects from different countries, potentially more mysterious and fearsome. What to do if they encountered them?

Enhancing fighting strength was the simplest and most direct method—training, cultivation, and enlightenment were all indispensable.

"Aunt Luo, we do not agree to take Big Brother to the hospital for treatment!" Wuxue approached Luo Yan respectfully and said.

Luo Yan looked at Wuxue and the others; they were the most loyal subordinates her son had, and she trusted them completely. But the four women had just decided to send their son Ye Tianchen for hospital treatment, and now they were being stopped by Wuxue and his men. What to do if they disagreed?

"This... what should we do?" Luo Yan couldn’t help but ask.

Her question left Wuxue, Lin Duan, Wang Jie, and Bao Tianglong speechless—for over seven days and nights, they had been searching for someone who could cure Ye Tianchen. In the whole world, perhaps only Zhang Yide, Superpower User and Divine Doctor Ghost Hand, could heal him, with his superb medical skills that could bring the terminally ill back to life.

Wuxue and the others had once sought out Zhang Yide because of Ye Tianchen’s injuries, and Zhang Yide had deep ties with Ye Tianchen, especially his granddaughter Zhang Ruotong, who had sacrificed her virginity for Ye Tianchen, an enormous sacrifice that Ye Tianchen might never be able to repay in this lifetime.

It was a pity then that when Wuxue, Wang Jie, Lin Duan, and Bao Tianglong had left Ye Tianchen to rest seated cross-legged in his bedroom and hurriedly went to the Zhang family estate to summon Zhang Yide, they found the entire Zhang family estate already deserted, cobwebs everywhere, as if it had been uninhabited for a long time. It seemed Zhang Yide had left home a long time ago.

"We wait, Aunt Luo, we can only wait. I understand your thoughts, but Big Brother instructed that after he is brought home, he should not be moved again. If we can’t find Zhang Yide, we must maintain this state. With Big Brother’s high cultivation and strength, he surely has his reasons. We must have faith in him!" Wuxue earnestly said to Luo Yan.
