Chapter 4865: Conditions

“Yueniang, how are you? Do you feel any pain?” He held her hand and asked nervously.

The old woman on the bed shook her head gently and tried to sit up.

At that moment, Feng Jiu said, “You’d better lie down! The spiritual energy in your body is almost depleted. It’s best to stay in bed for the time being to avoid a recurrence of what just happened.”

“If it weren’t for my sister helping you with the needles, you probably wouldn’t have woken up. So you’d better listen to what she says,” said Song Mi’er, who was standing nearby.

“Thank you, miss.” The old woman thanked her weakly. She didn’t try to sit up again but lay on the bed, looking at the man holding her hand, her expression carrying a hint of sadness and a reluctance that she couldn’t hide.

“Thank you. I apologize for my earlier behavior. Please don’t hold it against me.” The man stood up and bowed to Feng Jiu, speaking apologetically.

“It’s fine,” Feng Jiu said indifferently, glancing at the man and looking at the old woman on the bed. “I just took her pulse and found that she not only has an old illness but also that her Neidan1 has cracked, causing her spiritual energy to leak out and making it impossible for her to cultivate and recover on her own!”

Seeing how skilled she was when she treated the old woman earlier, and that Yueniang woke up not long after the silver needles were inserted, the man knew that she was well-versed in medical techniques. So he didn’t hide anything from her and nodded in agreement. “Yes.”

“Since the Neidan is damaged, causing spiritual energy to leak out, why not repair it?” Feng Jiu asked with a hint of doubt.

However, although she asked naturally, the people listening to her were all stunned, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

“Miss, you said that a cracked Neidan can be repaired? Did I hear you correctly?” the man asked in a trembling voice, his expression tinged with excitement and caution. Who among those who cultivate immortality doesn’t know that once the Neidan is damaged and the spiritual energy leaks out, it’s only a matter of time before death? Who has the ability to repair a damaged Neidan? I’ve never heard of such a thing!

Seeing this, Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows and looked at Song Mi’er. “Are there no alchemists or doctors here who can repair a damaged Neidan?”

Song Mi’er shook her head. “Sister, once the Neidan is damaged, the spiritual energy will leak out. No one can repair it. All we can do is wait to die.” As she spoke, her eyes darted around and fell on her surprised face. She asked curiously, “Sister, can you repair a damaged Neidan?”

At that moment, the man knelt down with a thud and begged, “Miss, please save my Yueniang! As long as you are willing to help me save Yueniang, I will do anything you ask!”

Hearing this, Feng Jiu smiled, glanced at the old woman on the bed, and said to the man, “If I ask you and your wife to come with me, would you agree?”

Hearing this, the man paused for a moment and did not answer immediately. This was because he did not know who this young lady in red was. What would she want them to do if they went with her?

Feng Jiu was not in a hurry. She walked over to the table and sat down, saying slowly, “Don’t worry, I won’t ask you to do anything harmful or unjust. I just admire your craftsmanship and want you to work for me.”

As she spoke, she paused and said, “If you don’t agree, it’s alright. I can extend her life for another three years, but you must forge a knife in exchange.”

Song Mi’er listened to this and couldn’t help but look at him anxiously. She wanted to remind him but didn’t dare, so she could only stand by and worry.
