Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings
Chapter 493 You are sick
Chapter 493 You are sick
With the arrival of Xuan Ziwen, the development of the Spirit Pagoda embarked on a faster track.
Bei Bei was in charge of the sect's daily management, while Xuan Ziwen took the lead in the soul tool aspect, with Ma Xiaotao, Ning Tian, and others assisting from the side. With the resource support from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and Shrek Academy, Huo Yuhao, as the sect leader, could basically be a hands-off manager.
That night, as darkness enveloped the sky, Huo Yuhao knocked on Wang Dong'er's door.
"Who is it?" Wang Dong'er's gentle voice came from inside the house.
"it's me."
"Yuhao?"
"Tap tap tap tap," a series of cheerful footsteps immediately came from inside the house.
Wang Dong'er opened the door, a joyful smile on her pretty face, and let Huo Yuhao into the room.
Seeing the serious expression on Huo Yuhao's face, a hint of doubt flashed in Wang Dong'er's eyes, and she asked, "Yuhao, is there something you need from me so late?"
Huo Yuhao nodded seriously, his eyes still showing barely concealed worry: "Dong'er, I have something very important to tell you."
"Important matter? What is it? Is it about the sect?"
Huo Yuhao gently shook his head, gazing into Wang Dong'er's deep blue eyes, and said, word by word, "It's about you."
Wang Dong'er was even more confused. About me? What could possibly happen to me? Why does Yuhao look so worried?
Taking a deep breath, as if preparing himself mentally, Huo Yuhao finally spoke slowly: "Dong'er, do you still remember the brocade pouch you gave me before?"
Wang Dong'er was taken aback, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she hummed in agreement: "Of course I remember. My uncle said that it was left to me by my father, and that if I ever find someone I like in the future, I should give this brocade pouch to him."
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "I opened that brocade pouch and looked at it."
"You opened it?"
Wang Dong'er immediately asked curiously, "What's in the brocade pouch?"
Just like in the original story, Wang Dong'er tried to open the brocade pouch after receiving it, but the spiritual seal on it was beyond her current level to break, so she didn't know what was inside.
When Huo Yuhao said he had already opened the brocade pouch, Wang Dong'er wasn't surprised at all, because Huo Yuhao's cultivation level was much higher than hers, and one of his martial souls was of the mental attribute. Huo Yuhao's mental strength was far superior to that of his peers.
Huo Yuhao said gravely, "It's a letter left by your father." Wang Dong'er's body trembled. "My father? What... what did he say in the letter?"
Huo Yuhao looked at her with pity, reached out and gently stroked Wang Dong'er's soft cheek, and softly uttered three words: "You're sick."
Wang Dong'er: "???"
“Your father said that your twin martial souls have mutated and awakened, putting a great burden on your body. So, when you overuse your power, a golden pattern resembling a golden trident will appear on your forehead. This golden pattern is actually a seal they placed to suppress the injuries inside your body.”
"Your father also said that the reason they haven't been at Haotian Sect for so many years is to search for rare and precious herbs that can heal the hidden injuries in your body. If they can't find them, the seal they placed on you can only suppress you until you're twenty years old at most. If you can't heal your injuries by the time you're twenty, then you might..." Huo Yuhao's tone suddenly became choked up, and he pulled Wang Dong'er's delicate body into his arms.
Wang Dong'er was terrified and murmured repeatedly, "I...I really have a disease? And it's a terminal illness, I can only live to be twenty?"
Huo Yuhao continued, "The letter said that your parents have been traveling for many years and finally found a magical herb that can heal your hidden injuries, called the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red. However, the location of this magical herb is extremely dangerous, and the requirements for picking it are very strict. Not only must it be picked by a loving couple, but it will also immediately recognize its owner after being picked. Only when its owner takes it can the magical herb exert its maximum effect."
Shaking his head with concern, Huo Yuhao sighed, "Originally, I wanted to pick it by myself without telling you, but I was afraid that if I picked it, it would recognize me as its master, and you wouldn't achieve the perfect healing effect after consuming it. So, after much consideration, I decided to come and find you to go with me."
"Extremely dangerous? Beloved couple?" Wang Dong'er's eyes suddenly welled up with tears, and she covered her rosy lips.
Yuhao actually wanted to secretly go to that extremely dangerous place to pick the magic herb to cure my illness?
Wang Dong'er had no doubt about Huo Yuhao's words, because it was too easy to verify. She could simply go back to Haotian Sect and ask Niu Tian to find out the truth. Huo Yuhao would never use such a lame excuse to make her happy.
Suddenly, Wang Dong'er thought of something else: "But, Yuhao, now that my parents have found the magic herb that can heal my hidden injuries, even if they can't pick it, why don't they ever come back to see me or stay with me?"
Huo Yuhao thought to himself: "Because they're busy sharpening their swords up there."
"I find this very strange too. According to the letter, they went out to search for spiritual herbs after you suffered a hidden injury when you were three years old. But as your biological parents, how could they not come back to see you for more than ten years? They didn't even care about your love life, and they weren't in a hurry for you to find a loved one to help you pick spiritual herbs. This is something I really can't understand," Huo Yuhao said, feigning confusion.
Hearing Wang Dong'er's words, Huo Yuhao was overjoyed. He had been thinking about how to start the conversation, but he didn't expect Wang Dong'er to be so cooperative and bring it up on her own initiative.
Sure enough, the light in Wang Dong'er's eyes dimmed. Thinking back to the past ten years or so, neither her eldest father, second father, nor her two parents whom she had never met had ever told her that she could only live to be twenty, nor had they reminded her in the slightest that she should find a boyfriend soon.
Aren't they worried that they might miss the chance to find a lover without knowing about this, and then die young at the age of twenty?
You know, it's all too common for a Soul Master to be so busy cultivating in the early stages that they don't have time to find a partner!
Or is it that they don't care about themselves at all, or have already given up on themselves, and have had another brother or sister somewhere else?
Otherwise, as Yuhao said, more than ten years have passed. Even if he was busy going out to find spiritual herbs, could he really not find even a little bit of time to come back and see himself?
Thinking of this, a trace of pain and anger flashed in Wang Dong'er's gentle eyes, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case.
Her biological parents didn't love her at all. Even her eldest and second uncles never warned her about this. They simply watched her grow up, getting closer and closer to twenty years old, and closer and closer to her death!
