Chapter 213 - The Miraculous Power of Balance

Fang Qingshan shot a glance at Fang Qinyu.

“Do you really think I’m a living Immortal? Even if a Great Immortal were to come here with his injuries, he might not be able to do anything about it. As the saying goes, the slightest action can affect the whole body. If he’s not done right, the balance in his body will be broken, and he will die instantly.”

It seemed that Fang Qingshan was indeed capable of something. He had explained the situation in his almost perfectly.

“Is there no way to solve it?”

Fang Qingshan pondered for a moment and said, “His situation is too special. Even if there is, the success rate is very low, but he has to take a great risk and pay a great price. Even I’m not confident.”

His gaze landed on Gu Xi.

“Kid, seeing how my daughter is protecting you, I am telling you something. There is still an evil force in your body that is constantly devouring your Essence Qi. You must solve it quickly. Otherwise, you will exhaust your Essence Qi and die.”

Evil force? Could it be that it was left behind by the Demon Venerable.

No wonder Gu Xi felt a dull pain in his heart from time to time. It was becoming more and more frequent now. He thought that it was a side effect of falling into the spatial turbulence. Now, it seemed that it was the Demon Venerable’s doing. It was a vicious and deep thought.

Even if he fell into the spatial turbulence and was almost dead, the Demon Venerable would not be at ease. He had even used such a method. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, if it were not for Fang Qingshan, he might have died without anyone knowing.

“Thank you for your advice, Tower Master Fang.”

This time, Gu Xi could not help but feel a little fortunate that he had come to the Moyu Tower.

Fang Qingshan was a little curious. If it were an ordinary person, they would be in a terrible state when they found out that their physical condition was so serious, or that they would not have long to live. They would either panic or beg him for help.

However, none of them was as calm as Gu Xi, as if he was not involved in the matter at all.

Moreover, he was young, but his body was full of injuries. It was hard to imagine how it was caused. Although more than half of the terrifying power had dissipated, the aura that remained made Fang Qingshan feel quite fearful.

“Don’t be in a hurry to thank me. An ordinary cultivator suffered such serious injuries and died a long time ago. Yet, you are still alive. It seems that your cultivation base must have been pretty good.”

Faced with Fang Qingshan’s probing words, Gu Xi remained calm. “What are you saying, Tower Master Fang? Fortunately, I have the family heirloom to protect me. That’s why I barely survived. Now, I’m just barely hanging on by a thread.”

Looking at Gu Xi’s expression, it did not seem like he was lying. As for how much Fang Qingshan believed him, no one knew.

The air suddenly became quiet. It was Fang Qinyu who broke the silence.

“Father, don’t we have the Healing Holy Medicine Nine Revolutions Jade Dew? It should have an effect if we give it to him.”

Looking at his daughter who had not changed at all, Fang Qingshan was finally angry. “Impudent! That is a precious treasure. How can it be given to an outsider?”

Seeing that Fang Qinyu still wanted to say something, Fang Qingshan did not want to listen anymore. “Enough. To be able to take in this person of unknown origin is already the best I can do. Don’t force me to chase him out.”

Seeing that Fang Qingshan was serious, Fang Qinyu could not say anything else. She could only take Gu Xi and leave.

Just as they left, Fang Qingshan immediately summoned Li Junyan. “How did you guys meet that Kid? Tell me everything that happened after that.”

Li Junyan was the eldest disciple. He had only mentioned it briefly in the transmission earlier and did not explain the details.

At this moment, seeing Fang Qingshan’s serious expression, he could not help but ask, “What’s wrong, Master? Could it be that there’s really something wrong with that Kid?”

“It’s true that this Kid is injured, but I can sense that he has a very big secret. His origin is extraordinary.”

After listening to Li Junyan’s description, Fang Qingshan was even more certain of his inner thoughts.

“You said that when the Violent Demon Bear attacked the two of them, you didn’t see it clearly. In the end, it was Qinyu who defeated the enemy with one move, which also allowed you to discover the weakness of the Demon Bear?”

Fang Qingshan knew how good his daughter was. She would never do such a thing. Not to mention defeating the enemy, it was impossible for her to destroy the powerful defense of the Demon Bear.

Li Junyan nodded. “Please forgive me, Master. I was also curious after the incident. I even checked the wound on the Demon Bear. The sword wound was extremely sharp. It didn’t look like…”

He did not explain very clearly, but Fang Qingshan knew what he meant. “It didn’t look like Qinyu did it, right?”

Fang Qingshan fell into deep thought. “But after my diagnosis, that Kid did lose all his cultivation and couldn’t use his spiritual power anymore. This is indeed strange.”

The matter of killing the Demon Bear was either Fang Qinyu or Gu Xi. From Fang Qinyu’s various protective measures and the life-saving grace that she had blurted out earlier, even if the truth was unbelievable, they had to admit it.

“You also said that he could survive the Insect Tide. It seems that this person is not as simple as we thought.”

Even Fang Qingshan was not confident that he could escape unscathed from the Winged Golden Black Bugs, let alone a person who could not use his spiritual power. No matter how he thought about it, he found it unbelievable.

It seemed that Gu Xi was very suspicious.

“Then what should we do, Master? Junior Sister Fang has been very protective of that Kid along the way. If this Kid were to harm Junior Sister or us, wouldn’t it be –”

Fang Qingshan could not help but sigh. “Don’t worry about this matter first. I will handle it myself.”

Regardless of whether Gu Xi had evil intentions or not, he was extremely worried about such an unfathomable person by Fang Qinyu’s side.

However, Gu Xi had saved Fang Qinyu’s life.

Fang Qingshan was now worried. Perhaps Gu Xi had no intentions, but judging from the wounds on his body, the enemy he had offended must be very powerful. It would not be good if Moyu Tower was implicated because of this.
