Are You Here to Twist the Knife?

After confirming that Hu Lingling was truly unable to move, Tang San put away the Soul Conductor Godly Zhuge Crossbow, walked forward, went behind her, placed his hand on the back of her neck, injected a trace of Mysterious Heaven Skill Internal Energy, examined her carefully, his eyes trembled, and he said in a trembling voice, "Her meridians are severed! Her Soul Power is completely lost!"

"Dead?"

Zhou Qing hurriedly stepped forward, raised his hand to the nose, and could still feel a faint breath.

"Still alive."

Tang San shook his head, "But in this situation, it's better to be dead."

Moreover, to be honest:

If this had happened in the martial arts world of my past life, it would have been a sure sign of qi deviation, and he would have been dead for good.

It was only because this world possessed something called Martial Soul that she was able to withstand most of the damage from her severed meridians, allowing her to barely survive.

However, if he doesn't receive timely treatment, he will die from excessive blood loss.

"Do you need treatment?"

Tang San sought Zhou Qing's opinion.

"Rule."

In any case, Hu Lingling can't just die like this, otherwise how will they explain it to Steward Xiao when they get out? Besides, Hu Lingling is covered in blood... who knows what kind of little devils the four of them will be treated as in the future!

More importantly, the Secret Art Hu Lingling used to transform into this form feels a bit strange, and we need to find out more about it.

Tang San didn't hesitate. He took out gauze, medicine pot, water and other items from the Moon Shines Brightly in the Twelve Towers. He first took out a pill, put it into Hu Lingling's mouth, lifted her chin, poured in water, and then controlled her chin to open and close, guiding the pill and water down her throat and into her stomach.

Afterwards, he sprinkled the powder all over Hu Lingling's body, but when it came to her private parts, he asked Romantina and Xiao Wu to help, while he and Zhou Qing chose to stay away.

After applying the medicinal powder all over her body, Tang San walked behind Hu Lingling, placed his hands on her back, and circulated his Mysterious Heaven Skill to regulate her internal Five Viscera.

As for the matter of severed Meridians...

Without the legendary Immortal Herb, Tang San believed there was absolutely no possibility of continuing the story.

After treating Hu Lingling's injuries, Tang San's Soul Power was exhausted. He couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead and said, "That's about it. Her life has been saved, but she will inevitably be weak and sickly for the rest of her life."

"Thank you for your help."

Looking at the frail Hu Lingling, Zhou Qing sighed, "I wonder if this girl will ever have the chance to be 'frail and sickly' in the future."

"That's true."

Hu Lingling is imprisoned here, deprived of her freedom, and can only be manipulated by Xiao Lang. Her fate has already been sealed, but Tang San does not think that keeping her alive now is meaningless.

At least, they won't be seen as sadistic perverts by Steward Xiao afterwards!

"Zhou Qing, why did this woman suddenly attack earlier?" Xiao Wu was terrified by Hu Lingling's blood-soaked state while applying the medicine powder, and remained in a daze until now, when she finally came to her senses and asked about it.

"I just said that I killed that Soul Ancestor and Martial Soul Possession. I used the resonance of my Qi and Blood and Soul Power to influence her emotions and intimidate her, so much so that she believed what I said... It's obvious that she has a close relationship with that Soul Ancestor."

At this point, Zhou Qing brought up another matter, "When I said that the Soul Ancestor was a woman, she didn't react much, but when I said that her figure was close to that of a woman, she paused for a moment... What do you all think?"

Xiao Wu blurted out, "That Soul Ancestor isn't a woman, she just looks like one?"

"How is that possible?" Tang San frowned. Although he had noticed the change in Hu Lingling's eyes at the time, the information given by Steward Xiao should be correct.

That must be a woman!

"Do you remember Steward Xiao's description of the Soul Ancestor's appearance? He was wearing a veil and a trench coat, his body completely covered up."

Zhou Qing repeated the physical characteristics of the Soul Ancestor that Steward Xiao had described, "Perhaps because the Soul Ancestor member is 'plump,' she is considered female, but her true gender is unknown."

Ladyboy!

Tang San inexplicably thought of a term he had heard from the adventurers of the Nuoding Guild, whose approximate meaning was:

Originally a man, but for some reason lost his male abilities, or perhaps he longed to be a woman, so that his personality and behavior began to lean towards being female.

But can even body shape be changed?

"Are there really people like this?" Xiao Wu was greatly shocked, unable to imagine how a man with a woman's body could exist. "When he urinates, does he stand? Or does he squat?"

Zhou Qing remained silent and did not answer.

Tang San turned his head away, ignoring the question.

Only Romantina looked serious. After thinking for a while, she solemnly raised a finger. "If he had male characteristics, he would definitely be standing."

"Please don't say such bizarre things in a serious tone, thank you, otherwise I might have nightmares tonight." In order to get a good night's sleep, Zhou Qing had to interrupt the two people's curiosity about the topic of "intersex people". "I asked Tang San to save her because I wanted to find out what her dangerous Secret Art was."

"I'm afraid they won't say." Tang San didn't have any expectations.

He's right, I won't tell you.

Just then, Hu Lingling woke up. Having missed the earlier conversation, her eyelids drooped, and her voice was weak, "Don't think that just because you saved me, I'll be grateful and tell you everything. You killed Hu Fangyuan... As long as I live, I will do everything in my power to avenge him! I won't kill you easily; instead, I will plunge you into endless suffering until your very last Life!"

Murderous intent, resentment, sorrow...

Resentment, anger, sadness...

Various negative emotions filled Hu Lingling's face, forming an indescribably distorted face. In particular, the dark red blood and gray medicinal powder on her face, due to the violent shaking of her face, made it look like oatmeal porridge that had been soaked and then dried out, with distinct layers.

Zhou Qing was silent for a while before chuckling, "Well, actually I was just kidding you. I've never met Hu Fangyuan before; I only heard about his appearance from Steward Xiao."

In an instant!

Hu Lingling's ferocious face suddenly froze. She stared blankly down at her body, which was covered in gray powder, and her eyes suddenly twitched violently.

Especially when he couldn't sense any Soul Power within his body, he suddenly threw his head back and burst into laughter. "Hahaha, hehehehehe—"

"Cough cough cough!"

She laughed so wildly that her whole body trembled, she had difficulty breathing, and she coughed violently.

"Don't get too excited. It wasn't easy to save you."

Zhou Qing whispered a reminder.

"Don't be so hurtful, she can't even handle this anymore." Xiao Wu said something fair, suspecting that if Zhou Qing were to say anything more, Hu Lingling, who had just been saved from near death, would be rolled up in a straw mat!

"Are you... sent by God to punish me?"

After Hu Lingling caught her breath, her gaze towards Zhou Qing was filled with resentment...
