Chapter 59: The Price of Survival

The truth about Broken Sword Peak left Qin Luo deeply troubled. Unfortunately, XuanYuan Liushuang was not a swordsman. Qin Luo shook his head, somewhat helpless. So many years had passed, and he naturally couldn’t bring himself to ask XuanYuan Liushuang for help.

"How did you and my father meet, senior?" Qin Luo asked, raising a glass of wine.

Luo Feng seemed to have a bad memory. After thinking hard for a long time, he slowly said, "When I first started learning medicine, there was a young man in the martial arts world who was incredibly audacious. He kidnapped the princess in front of 100,000 soldiers. She should know about this."

Luo Feng gestured towards Jiang Qingyu with his lip and said, "I love such a rebellious thing, so I had the idea of befriending him back then."

Jiang Qingyu seemed to be taken back to the past by Luo Feng’s words, and the words of that unruly young man flashed through her mind: "If I say I want to sleep with you, not a thousand armies can stop me!"

"Later, at the Famous Swords Tournament, that kid fought Xiao Tian for hundreds of rounds, and finally won because he was one step ahead. But by the time I arrived, he had already disappeared without a trace."

Qin Luo listened to Qin Zheng’s story from his youth with longing in his eyes, never expecting that this "ghost hand" was once his father’s admirer.

"Then, when Baiyun Palace was first established, the world was in chaos, and there was fighting every day. Your father often asked me to heal the injured disciples of Baiyun Palace, and we became familiar with each other over time."

"The battle to slay the demon was extremely fierce. Many cultivators went into battle with the determination to die. Even your father asked me for a prescription for the ’Death Silk’. At the time, taking this medicine would have meant certain death, but as far as I know, his death had nothing to do with this prescription..."

Qin Luo keenly noticed the key point and suddenly asked, "Back then?"

Luo Feng nodded and said, "I only discovered this later. Using a woman with a special physique as a vessel to transfer true energy can cure the poison of the Death Silk."

Fairy Lin’s face suddenly flashed through Qin Luo’s mind, and recalling Gu Hanyan’s words, he was immediately startled. Could it be...?

"The Cold Moon Body." Luo Feng looked at Qin Luo and said, "It’s one in ten thousand. This unprecedented treatment method has also allowed me to find another way to cure diseases."

"For example, that kid." Luo Feng glanced at the room where Da Niu was and said, "He cultivates the Overlord Manual, which is supposed to be beyond saving even by gods, but..."

Luo Feng’s gaze fell on Jiang Qingyu, and he said slowly, "If the Saintess Body is still there, then there is still a glimmer of hope..."

Jiang Qingyu was shocked and blushed slightly. She naturally knew what Luo Feng meant.

Qin Luo was still immersed in his memories. If Fairy Lin really was the Cold Moon Physique, then Bai Feizhang would not have died. Could this be the reason why Gu Hanyan took him as her disciple?

"Oh, right." Luo Feng seemed to remember something and looked at Qin Luo again, saying, "I can’t figure out what kind of cultivation technique you’re practicing."

Qin Luo was slightly taken aback, and for a moment he didn’t know how to answer.

"Haha, it’s alright." Luo Feng noticed Qin Luo’s predicament and said, "Let’s not talk about this."

"Why did you choose to live in seclusion here, senior?" Qin Luo quickly changed the subject.

"Hmm..." Luo Feng seemed to be lost in memories, and said, "I was bored and didn’t want to treat people I didn’t know. After teaching a few disciples, I found this place."

"Later, in the battle to slay the demons, everyone I knew and didn’t know died, making the mortal realm even more boring..."

"Does Senior know Song Hongdao?" Qin Luo asked again.

Luo Feng nodded and said, "Back then, the top disciple of Langya Cave, that kid only had eyes for swords, he was quite boring."

Qin Luo was somewhat disappointed, but he didn’t forget to express his gratitude, saying, "Thank you for your explanation, senior."

Luo Feng shook his head, looked at the house next to him, and said, "It’s nice to be able to talk to old friends."

"Receive!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the countless silver needles on Da Niu’s body inside the room suddenly floated into the air, flew out in a line through the window cracks, and landed in Luo Feng’s hand.

"I will use silver needles to create an array and draw true energy into his body. After half a month, that kid will be able to get out of bed. However, this is just a desperate gamble. This method can awaken his last bit of true energy, which is what people often call a ’last gasp before death’."

Luo Feng looked at Jiang Qingyu and said.

"You must stay by his side for the next three days and have intercourse with him several times. However, how much he can recover depends entirely on the boy’s fate."

After finishing the pot of wine, Luo Feng shook his head at the fish on the table that had only been touched once, then turned and went back into his room.

In the empty courtyard, only Qin Luo and his two companions remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Faced with Qin Luo and Xiao Qing’s questioning and pleading gazes, Jiang Qingyu blushed and lowered her head helplessly.
