Chapter 21: Incurable

When Zhu Wenyin brought Zhao Kexin to the clinic, Ying Zongyu was flipping through ancient medical books with a frown on his face.

In addition to Ying Zongyu, there was another disciple in the medical hall today, named Si Shao. When he saw the two of them coming, he bowed and said, "Two senior sisters."

Zhao Kexin covered her face, her eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was crying, "Look at my face."

"Why are you shouting? Be quiet." Ying Zongyu scolded irritably without even raising his head.

Zhao Kexin suddenly stopped talking.

Zhu Wenyin greeted him politely, "Master Ying."

Ying Zongyu ignored it.

Seeing that Zhao Kexin’s face was covered in blood, Si Shao motioned for the two to follow him and not to disturb the hall master.

The two nodded and followed Si Shao into the innermost room.

Si Shao then spoke up: "Although the wound on Senior Sister Zhao's face is not light, it is not a big deal. A beauty pill can heal it. Senior Sister Zhao must have no shortage of beauty pills. Why didn't she take them? Did she run out of them?"

"No, I took it." Zhao Kexin was very panicked, "The beauty pills don't work."

At first, she was so scared by the blood on her face that she forgot about it. Jiang Lisheng told her to go to the infirmary. Her senior sister was also scared and took her to the infirmary quickly. They had not walked far when they remembered that they could take beauty pills. So they stopped and took one. Logically, the beauty pills should take effect instantly after taking them, but her face did not get better. The beauty pills were useless, and she was completely panicked.

"Oh?" Si Shao was puzzled. "Let me take a look."

He looked at Zhao Kexin's face carefully, took out a beauty pill and gave it to her. Sure enough, after Zhao Kexin took it, her face was still bleeding and there was no improvement. He used his spiritual power to help Zhao Kexin heal, but surprisingly, his spiritual power had no effect on her face.

Si Shao was also shocked, "This shouldn't be the case."

He asked Zhao Kexin, "Senior Sister Zhao, the wound on your face is really strange. May I ask how did you get hurt?"

Zhao Kexin naturally didn't want to say that she was tricked by Jiang Lisheng and fell down from her sword, but she couldn't help but say it. Her face was the most important, so she gritted her teeth and said it.

Si Shao was shocked, "I remember Senior Sister Zhao's sword was a top-grade sword, how could it be broken?"

"Yes." Zhao Kexin nodded angrily.

Si Shao thought for a moment, then took out a top-grade Tianling Pill and handed it to Zhao Kexin.

After Zhao Kexin ate it, there was still no change.

Si Shao was at a loss as he was a medical practitioner and his spiritual power could heal internal and external injuries, but it was of no use on Zhao Kexin's face. The top-grade Tianling Pill could reshape broken bones, let alone a mere face, but it still didn't work. He could only take the two of them out to ask Ying Zongyu for advice.

Ying Zongyu is having a headache over repairing the injury to Wei Qinglan's spiritual palace. He has tried every method, but with little effect. As long as the spiritual palace cannot be repaired, Wei Qinglan's cultivation will not improve any more. This is a big deal.

Si Shao bowed, "Master, I can't cure Senior Sister Zhao's face, so I have to ask you for help."

Ying Zongyu put down the medical book, looked up, and said angrily, "It's just a minor injury, how can you not cure it?"

"Although it is a minor injury, I have tried it. The beauty pills are useless, and my spiritual skills can't repair it. I even took the top-grade Tianling pills, but it didn't work at all." Si Shao had never seen such an injury before. "I am stupid, please take a look, Master."

Ying Zongyu waved his hand and said to Zhao Kexin, "Come here."

Zhao Kexin hurried forward. Ying Zongyu waved his hand, and his spiritual power was strong and healing, covering Zhao Kexin's face. After a moment, he put his hand down, and sure enough, he saw that Zhao Kexin's face didn't change at all. He was also shocked, "How did you hurt your face? What hurt you?"

Zhao Kexin could only grit her teeth and repeat the reason again.

Ying Zongyu said "Oh?" and said, "Are you talking about Jiang Lisheng?"

Zhao Kexin nodded.

Ying Zongyu became interested, "Why did she attack you?"

Zhao Kexin immediately said: "She likes Senior Brother Xu An from Yuxu Peak, and she doesn't like me."

Wei Qinglan happened to walk into the medical hall, and following the voice, looked towards Zhao Kexin.

Ying Zongyu remembered that Jiang Lisheng and An Ruxu had come to the medical hall together yesterday. They seemed to be on good terms. He raised his eyebrows, "She is in the early stage of foundation building, and you are in the middle stage of foundation building. How could she get her face hurt? Where did you hurt her?"

"I was caught off guard." Zhao Kexin gritted her teeth and replied, "I haven't settled the score with her yet."

"In other words, you failed to hurt her?" Ying Zongyu clicked his tongue and looked at Wei Qinglan who came in. "You came at the right time. Come and see. My spiritual power will become ineffective one day. It's strange that I can't heal her face."

Wei Qinglan had seen it, but did not walk over. Instead, she sat on a chair beside her and said in a light voice, "Junior Sister Jiang has special spiritual power. It is not surprising that pills and spiritual power are ineffective in healing you because of her spiritual power. We should find a way to heal you from her."

When Zhao Kexin heard Wei Qinglan calling Jiang Lisheng "Junior Sister Jiang" and sounding very familiar with her, her expression changed, but because her face was bleeding, no one noticed the change.

But Zhu Wenyin's expression almost couldn't hold back, and she clenched her hands in her sleeves.

Wei Qinglan was a young genius in Kunlun. All his fellow disciples looked up to him. They were from the same sect, but they had no chance to talk to him. He was too high up, far behind all of them, and they had no chance to meet him, or even see him.

Why did he call Jiang Lisheng "Junior Sister Jiang"? And they even came forward to call him "Junior Brother Wei", which seemed to be a blasphemy to him.

"Ah, yes, her spiritual power seems to be very special." Ying Zongyu is a medical practitioner and is very sensitive to the spiritual power of cultivators. He discovered yesterday that Jiang Lisheng was different from ordinary people. He took out the communication card and sent a message to Jiang Lisheng, "I'll call her over now."

He tapped the communication card twice, clicking his tongue, "She has only been in Kunlun for a few days? She's already back to her old ways? Not only does she hit people with her hands, but she also hits them in the face? What's wrong with her? Does Zhou Zhenyan know? Isn't she afraid of being punished? Has she forgotten how she came to the Discipline Hall to teach? Don't let her be driven back."

Wei Qinglan glanced at Zhao Kexin calmly, "Everything must have a reason. How can Uncle Ying jump to conclusions based on only one side of the story?"

Ying Zongyu turned his head to look at him.

Wei Qinglan took out a book, lowered his head to read it, and stopped talking.

Ying Zongyu was not sure what Wei Qinglan meant by this. He was not a nosy person. What he said today was very strange. He looked at Wei Qinglan for a moment and saw that he was reading without raising his head. He retracted his gaze and stared at Zhao Kexin, "Are you lying?"

Wei Qinglan would not do anything without a purpose.

Zhao Kexin shivered when she was stared at. She was sure that Jiang Lisheng liked An Ruxu, otherwise why would he not agree to stay away from him? Her teeth chattered and she bit her lip, "Disciple didn't."

Ying Zongyu sneered, retracted his gaze, and didn't bother to care, "Love or not, anyway, this is the business of the Discipline Hall, it's none of my business."

He took out the message card again and urged Jiang Lisheng, "Come quickly!"
