Chapter 16 - Chapter 16 The Attraction of Fate

Jiang Nannan clenched her fists tightly against her chest, looking at her mother with a worried expression.

The emerald green light, symbolizing healing, gradually adjusted her mother's body, stopping the continuous loss of life force.

Jiang Nannan was very excited to see her mother's complexion becoming more rosy, but when she saw the solemn expression on the clinic owner's face, her heart, which had sank, jumped again.

  Ten minutes later.

When the woman on the bed gradually calmed down, her pale face regained its rosy color, and her life force flowed normally within her body, Xu Wei dissipated his healing soul power.

Xu Wei stood in front of the bed, pondering for a long time, and finally could only sigh.

Hearing this sigh, Jiang Nannan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, died completely.

In the clinic, it's not the doctor's complaints that are frightening, but the doctor's silence and sighs.

Jiang Nannan asked in a trembling voice, "Master, how is my mother?"

Xu Wei led Jiang Nannan out of the ward, shook his head at the door, and said,

"Your mother is fine now. I used my soul skill to lock the loss of her life force and replenished some of it."

"But Miss Jiang, your mother's heart has a congenital problem, which involves the very essence of life."

"In this situation, relying solely on healing soul skills is only treating the symptoms, not the root cause, and your mother's heart is still deteriorating, its function is constantly weakening."

"It is estimated that in a week, this situation will reappear, and it will be even more serious in the future."

Jiang Nannan felt her body go limp and almost fainted, but fortunately, her Soul Venerable physique was not that fragile.

"Master, is there any other way?"

Seeing Jiang Nannan's fragile and unwilling eyes, Xu Wei closed his eyes and began to search for relevant medical texts.

He quickly opened his eyes and said, "Throughout history, there has only been one way to solve this kind of congenital problem: to strengthen the foundation and improve physical constitution."

"Some Soul Masters have flawed Martial Souls, but these can be repaired by absorbing Soul Rings and consuming appropriate rare and precious herbs."

"As for your mother's congenital heart problem, the only thing I can recall that would be effective is the Xuanwu Divine Pill from the Xuanming Sect."

"However, the Xuanming Sect has long since retreated deep into the forests, ignoring the affairs of the mainland. Finding them and obtaining the Xuanwu Divine Pill from them is as difficult as ascending to heaven!" Just as

 Xu Wei mentioned the Xuanwu Divine Pill, a man who was picking up medicinal herbs with a medical apprentice suddenly straightened up and secretly glanced at Jiang Nannan out of the corner of his eye.

Upon seeing Jiang Nannan's appearance clearly, he was immediately excited.

"Exquisite! Absolutely beautiful!"

"Her appearance and temperament absolutely meet the requirements of the Sect Master and the Second Young Master."

This man was Chen Wen, the personal page of Xu Sanshi, the Second Young Master of the Xuanming Sect.

Chen Wen had been troubled by Xu Sanshi's martial soul evolution ritual. The sect leader demanded that he find a talented and beautiful young woman to perform the ritual for Xu Sanshi.

Once the second young master's martial soul evolved into the Xuanwu Shield, he would become the young sect leader of the Xuanming Sect, and Chen Wen, as the sect leader's first follower, could also take off.

Excited, he bought the medicinal herbs and immediately returned to the Xuanming Sect.

He had heard that the girl needed the Xuanwu Divine Pill, which, while a rare and precious pill for the Xuanming Sect, was insignificant

considering the sect leader's high regard for the second young master.

He would report to the sect leader and then request a Xuanwu Divine Pill from the treasury in exchange for the beautiful young woman's willingness to become a key part of the ritual.

Chen Wen's departure went unnoticed by anyone in the pharmacy. Jiang Nannan trembled slightly, unsure what to do.

She worried that her mother might leave her, even though she had promised her that she would become a powerful figure and give her a good life.

  But now…

Xu Wei looked at her, who seemed so fragile, and felt a pang of pity. He had high hopes for this girl's potential.

"Miss Jiang, there's actually another place you can go."

"There's a small Huo Medical Clinic that's opened in the market area of ​​the southern district of Xuanfeng City."

"This clinic has become quite famous in Xuanfeng City recently, attracting many people seeking medical treatment."

"According to some Soul Masters from the Soul Arena, the owner of that clinic can cure any injury without side effects."

"He can even regenerate lost fingers; his medical skills are extremely high."

"Although I haven't witnessed it myself, I believe his reputation is well-deserved."

Hearing his words, Jiang Nannan's lifeless eyes rekindled with hope.

She bowed deeply to Xu Wei, then went into the room and helped her mother leave.

They were heading towards the South District.

Huo Yuhao was unaware that another "acquaintance" was about to arrive, drawn here by fate.

He was currently providing Soul Consultation.

"Master Huo, what should we do about my son's situation?"

A middle-aged woman dressed in fine clothes looked at Huo Yuhao with a worried expression. Beside her was a thirteen-year-old boy with a disdainful look.

"You mean, your son's Soul is Blue Silver Grass, with innate level two Soul Power, and now he wants to hunt for a venomous snake Soul Ring?"

Huo Yuhao's expression was tense.

The middle-aged woman sighed, looking at the boy beside her with exasperation, and said,

"This brat, after reading a few glances at the story of the Sea God, he's determined to hunt snakes for his spirit ring."

"My ancestors were from the Tang Sect," she continued, "and none of the Blue Silver Grass spirit masters in the Tang Sect who imitated Tang San's ancestor ever reached the sixth ring."

The boy, hearing his mother's words, immediately retorted,

"They were useless. I'm different."

Huo Yuhao was truly an old man now, on the subway, on his phone.

Where would you get the courage to say that if you didn't have a level two innate spirit power and a Nine Gates martial spirit?

Unless you have some Blue Silver King bloodline, Huo Yuhao wouldn't believe you even a little.

However, objectively speaking, Huo Yuhao still had a few suggestions.

"Madam, and this young friend... the fact that he has a Blue Silver Grass spirit with innate level two spirit power indicates that his spirit origin is relatively weak."

"Absorbing a venomous snake spirit ring can indeed allow his spirit to evolve to some extent, because this spirit can no longer degenerate."

"However, venomous snake spirit rings usually leave you with toxins in your body, and your spirit is too weak to suppress them."

"These toxins can cause you excruciating pain."

To prove it, Huo Yuhao pulled out a copy of "One Hundred Ways a Spirit Master Can Die," which he had recently bought from a bookstore in Xuanfeng City. It included cases of Blue Silver Grass spirit masters dying from their own spirit poison. He had

Heard that the author of this book was a titled Douluo from a hundred years ago, and it was widely circulated and highly authoritative.

After seeing the painful ways to die that Huo Yuhao had highlighted in bold, fear gripped the boy.

"You think I'm afraid of this? It's just poison."

"But then again, thinking about it carefully, a venomous snake-type spirit doesn't seem really suitable for me. Can you recommend something else?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled, then said, "The Sunflower as my first spirit ring is quite good. Its recorded spirit skills include photosynthesis healing and absorption. It's a decent life-type spirit beast."

After saying this, Huo Yuhao pulled out a thick book, *Encyclopedia of Spirit Beasts and Spirit Skills*, and flipped to the Sunflower section.

This book was a secondhand item Huo Yuhao had bought from a merchant.

  It was worth one hundred gold spirit coins.
