Chapter 398: Chapter 398: I Don’t Want It

Lin Xiaoyan looked at He Qi’an who was carefully taking care of her, and her eyes filled with tears, she wanted to cry.

So, what exactly did she eat?

Lin Xiaoyan thought through the entire process. At the hotel, she had a home-cooked meal.

Later, after being captured, she was so hungry!

As for those two fruits, she didn’t eat them!

Then… everything went into chaos, she was beating wildly on the White Snake.

After that…

Lin Xiaoyan lowered her head in deep thought. The thing in her mouth—she suddenly lifted her head, her expression strange.

If you count what was forcibly put into her mouth, that’s… when she bit into the bulge on the White Snake’s head at last.

Originally, she wanted to spit it out after biting it, but unexpectedly the White Snake suddenly struggled fiercely, and coupled with a sudden lightning strike from the sky, she didn’t have time to spit it out and swallowed it directly.

Then… she fell off the White Snake, and while she was in mid-air, the White Snake swallowed her in one gulp.

Afterwards, she knew nothing.

Lin Xiaoyan remembered the thing that reached the corner of her mouth and subconsciously retched.

That was something from a snake, it was disgusting!

Here, He Qi’an had already finished massaging Lin Xiaoyan, who was lying in the hospital bed, and got up to get a basin of water to start wiping Lin Xiaoyan’s face.

Watching He Qi’an’s movements, Lin Xiaoyan sat on the edge of the bed, eyes full of smiles as she watched him.

Soon, the surrounding air suddenly turned cold. Lin Xiaoyan quickly stood up and looked at the suddenly appearing Xie Wuchang.

Upon seeing Xie Wuchang, Lin Xiaoyan immediately said, “Lord Xie, I remembered, I accidentally swallowed the bulge on that White Snake’s head…”

Lin Xiaoyan quickly recounted what had happened back then.

Xie Wuchang listened, staring straight at Lin Xiaoyan, silent all along.

Lin Xiaoyan felt creeped out by Xie Wuchang’s gaze, she didn’t know what it meant.

Xie Wuchang looked at Lin Xiaoyan, sighing inwardly: This girl is exceptionally fortunate, to have swallowed a nascent Dragon Horn, no wonder she cannot return to her body now.

“Do you know…” Xie Wuchang said coldly.

Lin Xiaoyan immediately listened carefully.

“What you swallowed was the cultivation of that White Snake, cultivated over hundreds of years. To become a dragon, it gathered all its energy at the top of its head, hoping to transform into a Dragon Horn…”

After hearing Xie Wuchang’s words, Lin Xiaoyan apprehensively asked, “Lord Xie, does that mean I am… already dead?”

Xie Wuchang looked at Lin Xiaoyan lying in bed, “No, it’s just that the energy in the Dragon Horn you swallowed is too much for your body to absorb…

Currently, your body is like a jar, holding that energy.

Your soul was expelled and cannot return.”

Lin Xiaoyan was anxious after hearing this, “Then when can I return?”

Xie Wuchang: “If you cannot refine that energy, you will never return.”

Lin Xiaoyan: “How do I refine it?”

Xie Wuchang looked at Lin Xiaoyan: “You haven’t learned a Cultivation Method to refine it.”

Lin Xiaoyan: …..

Lin Xiaoyan understood, meaning she couldn’t return no matter what.

She sat dejectedly on the bed, watching He Qi’an working by her side; as she watched, tears fell from her eyes.

Xie Wuchang saw Lin Xiaoyan crying, his brow twitched slightly.

“Ahem…”

He cleared his throat softly, looking at Lin Xiaoyan, “There’s another way…”

Lin Xiaoyan quickly raised her head, her eyes shining as she looked at him.

Xie Wuchang: “I can extract the energy from your body, then you can return.”

“But this energy…”

Lin Xiaoyan immediately said, “I would trouble you, Lord, to take this energy away.”

Xie Wuchang: “You don’t want it?”

Lin Xiaoyan waved her hand: “No! No! I just want to be an ordinary person!”

Xie Wuchang: “Do you know that this energy is hundreds of years’ worth? If you wish to cultivate, it could elevate you in one step.”

Lin Xiaoyan shook her head, her gaze turning to He Qi’an, “Lord, I just want to be an ordinary person. Cultivation is something I don’t dare to think about, I just want to grow old slowly with the one I love through this life.”

After hearing this, Xie Wuchang stayed silent for a moment, then nodded, “Alright, then I’ll take this energy.”

He took out a Jade Token from his embrace and handed it to Lin Xiaoyan, “Keep this. If you encounter anything in the future, I can help you three times.”

Lin Xiaoyan respectfully accepted it with both hands, “Thank you, Lord!”

Xie Wuchang walked to the foot of Lin Xiaoyan’s bed, with a wave of his hand, an invisible Barrier appeared around them.

Lin Xiaoyan quickly moved to He Qi’an’s side. Being near him provided her with a sense of security, she then looked at what Xie Wuchang was doing.

Only to see Xie Wuchang take out a small gourd and make rapid hand seals.

Lin Xiaoyan clearly saw a balloon-sized white sphere emerge from her body.

Xie Wuchang drew the sphere into the gourd and placed it in his embrace.

“Alright, you can go back now.”

Before Lin Xiaoyan could react, her once-light body suddenly felt empty, and in the next second, a heavy sense of exhaustion overcame her, and she sank into a deep sleep.

Xie Wuchang, seeing Lin Xiaoyan’s soul return, let out a breath of relief.

As he prepared to leave, He Qi’an’s gaze turned towards him.

Xie Wuchang paused, looking at He Qi’an.

He Qi’an stood up, first looking at his girlfriend on the bed, ensuring she was fine, then he looked towards the window, feeling like there was something there.

He Qi’an slowly walked over, stopping in front of Xie Wuchang.

Xie Wuchang raised an eyebrow, certain that He Qi’an couldn’t see him, but was surprised by his strong perception.

“Hmph!”

Xie Wuchang coldly snorted, glanced at He Qi’an, then dragged his chains and slowly left.

After Xie Wuchang left, He Qi’an’s tense body relaxed, he carefully glanced around the ward, confirming the cold presence was gone, and he let out a relieved sigh.

Walking to the bedside, he tightly held Lin Xiaoyan’s hand, praying in his heart, Yanyan, wake up soon…

Early the next morning, Nan Xi and Xiao Bo arrived at the hospital to relieve He Qi’an.

“Captain He, you go to work now, we’re here, don’t worry.”

Xiao Bo handed He Qi’an the food he bought and said.

He Qi’an accepted the food, glanced at Lin Xiaoyan again, “Thank you for today.”

Nan Xi: “It’s what we should do.”

Xiao Bo: “Yes, Captain He, rest assured.”

He Qi’an nodded, looked at the time, and quickly left the hospital.

After Lin Xiaoyan’s condition stabilized, they transferred her to Sea City Hospital.

In Sea City, they can take care of her nearby.

At ten past ten in the morning, the doctors had finished their rounds, and Nan Xi was giving Lin Xiaoyan a body massage.

Lin Mu and Fan Lalan brought An’an to the hospital.

“Xiao Nan, take a rest, I’ll do it.”

Seeing Nan Xi massaging her daughter, Lin Mu immediately came over to take over.

Nan Xi stopped Lin Mu, “Auntie, I’ll take care of it, you rest.”

Seeing Nan Xi unceasing in her actions, Lin Mu had no choice but to sit down.
