The meridians in Bai Wuchen’s legs were all damaged, his bones were broken, and there was still the corrosion of the cold aura. Therefore, it was very difficult to treat him.
If she wanted to treat his legs, she had to first release the cold aura inside. Then, she had to fix the broken bones. Finally, she had to repair the meridians. In the later stages, he could use medicine to recuperate for a while before he could slowly recover.
However, be it releasing the cold aura, connecting broken bones, or repairing the meridians, he all had to bear immense pain.
Xue Fanxin had already told him about this pain in advance, so no matter how painful it was, Bai Wuchen endured it. Even with the brocade handkerchief in his mouth, he was still in so much pain that he bit his mouth until it bled. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his entire face was pale from the pain.
The head of the Bai family and Bai Shuiling watched from the side extremely intently and were very worried. However, they did not dare to make a sound, nor did they dare to disturb Xue Fanxin’s treatment, so no matter how anxious they were, they could only bear it.
In order to help Bai Wuchen endure that fatal pain, Xue Fanxin plucked a leaf from the Tree of Life and ground it into juice to feed him. Then, she continued to administer acupuncture treatment to him, releasing the cold aura in his legs. She then used the power of the Wood Spirit Heavenly Pearl to fix his broken bones. Finally, she used the Yang Needle Art in the Yin Yang Nine Needles Art to cultivate his meridians.
The three steps of treatment were done in one go. Although it consumed a huge amount of spirit energy, the effects were obvious. At the very least, Bai Wuchen’s legs had already been healed. He only needed to recuperate well in the future and he would be able to walk like a normal person in less than three months.
During the treatment, Bai Wuchen had already fainted, so he did not know anything.
“Alright, his legs have already been treated, but it’s not suitable for him to walk yet. Use this prescription and make medicine for him every day. After ten days, you can let him stand for a while. In a month’s time, he can walk a little slowly. I’m three month’s time, he can be like a normal person.”
“Thank you, Ninth Imperial Consort.” The head of the Bai family took the prescription Xue Fanxin gave him and looked at his unconscious son, feeling very happy.
Wuchen was the most outstanding among his sons. If not for his crippled legs, he would have been even more outstanding.
That was why he had been so ruthless when he killed his eldest son back then. This was because Wuchen’s legs had been harmed by his eldest son.
However, all of this was no longer important. What was important was that Wuchen could stand up again.
“Take him back and have a good rest. If anything happens in the next few days, you can come and look for me. I’m leaving in half a month. At that time, it’ll be very difficult for you to look for me.” Xue Fanxin left after giving some instructions and returned to her room to rest.
Everyone could tell that Xue Fanxin was very tired. Even if they still had a lot to say to her, they endured it and left with many questions and reluctance.
In the end, Xue Fanxin said that she was leaving in half a month. Where was she going?
The Bai family did not ask about this. They returned to their temporary residence and settled Bai Wuchen down before starting to buy the herbs he needed in the later stages.
Just as Xue Fanxin had said, Bai Wuchen’s post-treatment required quite a few precious herbs. With the Bai family’s current situation, it was really difficult to maintain the supply, or even impossible.
If all the money was used to buy medicine, it would be a problem for the Bai family to eat with a few hundred people.
Just as the head of the Bai family and Bai Shuiling were worried about the herbs, a purple figure quietly entered Bai Wuchen’s room.
At this moment, Bai Wuchen woke up. When he saw who it was, he asked in surprise, “Why is the Tower Master of the Purple Cloud Tower looking for me?”
Zimo came to look for Bai Wuchen in private and smiled mysteriously. “I came to Young Master Wuchen to discuss a deal.”
“What deal?”
“Your Bai family is very short of money now. Your father and sister are outside worrying about the herbs you need for later treatment. If you come and help me run the Purple Cloud Tower and take care of everything large and small, I’ll help you resolve the herbs.”
He had searched for a long time but could not find a suitable person to take over the Purple Cloud Tower.
Although he had a few good subordinates, they were not smart enough. After thinking about it, only Bai Wuchen was the most suitable.
