Chapter 1318 — Not Enough Time: Wei Zhao Saw Feng Tianlong and Feng Xiaoxiao Still Unconscious Beside Him
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"Old Jiao, is there still hope?" Wei Zhao's body had finally recovered for the most part, and his color looked much better than before!
"Hard to say... The seriousness of it is beyond what I expected. The cold has basically invaded her meridians. By any normal reckoning, nothing can save her now. Even if you force her awake, it will only be a matter of a day or two!" Jiao Yazi said, "Within a day or two, could you possibly find the Fire Spirit Holy Fruit? I think it is impossible!"
"Mm..." Wei Zhao drew a deep breath. "One or two days... Even if it is only one or two days, I must fight for it. I cannot just watch her die..."
"Suit yourself. You will not shed tears until you see the Yellow River. Feng Xiaoxiao has already built up a resistance to your blood. That is to say, the yin-cold energy inside her has grown to a certain strength, and your blood can no longer hold it down!" Jiao Yazi said.
"I know, say no more. Even a day or two is good!" Wei Zhao said, "Xiaoxiao's birthday is almost here. I do not want her to leave any regrets. I have never spent a birthday with her..."
Feeling his body had just about recovered, Wei Zhao hurried back to reality from the jade pendant space. All along he had been watching Feng Xiaoxiao beside him with his senses, and luckily there had always been a spark of life, which let him restore his strength in peace.
After waking, Wei Zhao did not even bother to speak to Feng Tianlong, but bit open his own wrist at once and let the fresh blood keep flowing over Feng Xiaoxiao's body...
"Ah!" Feng Tianlong had felt a breath of relief and a touch of gladness on seeing Wei Zhao wake up. If something happened to Xiaoxiao, and then something happened to Wei Zhao too, how could his conscience bear it? Especially since Wei Zhao was Lin Dongfang's disciple. If anything serious happened to him, how would he explain it to him?
But the first thing Wei Zhao did upon waking was to bite open his wrist and go on treating Feng Xiaoxiao, which wrung Feng Tianlong's heart so that he did not know what to say! Wei Zhao truly cared for Xiaoxiao!
"Xiao Yi, do not force yourself. Life and death are decreed by fate. You have already done your best. Xiaoxiao is already like this. You cannot ruin your own body like this!" Feng Tianlong knew how important blood was to the human body. Although Wei Zhao was a cultivator, he himself was a cultivator too!
To lose so much blood as to fall unconscious, and then to wake again without a transfusion, was already a rare miracle. Yet Wei Zhao, right after waking, was giving Feng Xiaoxiao his blood again. Was this not courting death?
"It is nothing!" Wei Zhao said lightly, "I have mostly recovered. In everything one must try. If I do not try, I will never accept it!"
Hearing Wei Zhao's words, Tang Zhi and Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu all fell silent. They all knew Wei Zhao's character. What he said, he did.
Wei Zhao kept struggling in his heart. He was unwilling to accept it! Though Feng Xiaoxiao's face was still pale and showed no movement at all, Wei Zhao persisted in pouring his fresh blood over her body...
Time passed minute by minute and second by second, and Wei Zhao's face turned ghastly pale again, yet still Wei Zhao did not give up.
The atmosphere in the room was very tense. No one spoke. Everyone was silent, their eyes all fixed on Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao.
At last, Feng Xiaoxiao's eyelashes moved!
"They moved, they really moved!" Shen Yushu cried out.
"Ha..." A relieved smile appeared at the corner of Wei Zhao's mouth. It looked as if Feng Xiaoxiao had come back from the gates of hell!
Feng Tianlong's face also showed mingled shock and joy. He had not expected that this time too Wei Zhao would still pull Feng Xiaoxiao back!
"Xiaoxiao, are you awake?" Feng Tianlong ran over, somewhat excited.
"Mm..." Feng Xiaoxiao opened her eyes groggily, looked at the room full of people, and said in some surprise, "Am I awake? I am actually still alive?"
