Chapter 2730 - 2729: Rescue and Treatment

Shui Kong, whose mind was already filled with despair and heartache, now held the dying Shuiluan in his arms and lifted his head to look in the direction the voice came from, only to see a familiar face.

Ling Feng appeared confidently before the crowd. Wherever he went, the crowd automatically parted to make way for him. Then Ling Feng came to Shui Kong, looking up at this Clan Leader.

"Is it you? How can you be here?" Shui Kong said incredulously. He couldn’t believe that the few people he had seen on the territory of the Huo Clan not long ago were now in his own clan, seemingly coming from the direction of the Holy Temple.

"Why can’t I be here?" Ling Feng replied with an amused smile.

"You’re from the Huo Clan! You’re an ally of the Huo Clan. You already chose a side. Do you know the consequences of coming onto my Shui Clan’s territory now?" Shui Kong said coldly.

Before Ling Feng could speak, Shui Nian punched his grandson, the Clan Leader, and shouted, "How dare you speak to our clan’s prophesied one like that!"

Shui Kong widened his eyes in disbelief, looking at his grandfather’s angry face, and then murmured, "Grandpa... are you saying that they are the prophesied ones to help our Shui Clan through the calamity?"

"But... how is that possible?"

"You little brat! Are you saying that I, the Great Elder, have also betrayed the clan? Are you saying that I, the Great Elder, am standing with those brats from the Huo Clan, colluding with outsiders?"

"That’s naturally... impossible... but..." Shui Kong clearly did not dare to defy his grandfather, but his face showed deep shock.

"Can you save Shuiluan?" Shui Kong looked at Ling Feng and then hesitantly said.

"Well... how should I say this, I can save him, but if you keep stalling, not even immortals can help!" Ling Feng calmly said, stroking his chin.

Shui Nian’s expression changed, and he then pleaded with Ling Feng, "Please, you must save our Shui Clan’s Great General. I think this is also within the scope of the calamity. If you don’t revive him, it will be very difficult for us to reward you..."

Ling Feng looked at Shui Nian’s seemingly pointed words and tilted his head with a smile, "Are you threatening me?"

Shui Nian shook his head, "Of course, I don’t dare. It’s just that if we lose a great general this time, when the war truly breaks out, our Shui Clan’s fighting strength will be insufficient, and you will need to exert more effort,"

"That’s not too good for you, is it?" Shui Nian carefully considered his words while looking at Ling Feng.

Ling Feng considered for just a moment, then nodded and made a decision, "I think you make sense, so today I really can’t let this guy die. But you will need to give me more compensation afterward!"

"You!" Shui Kong’s expression changed, sensing this guy came to make a deal.

"Fine, as long as you can revive Shuiluan, our clan is willing to pay any price!" Shui Nian decisively said.

Ling Feng was slightly surprised, not expecting this Great General’s life to be so important?

Then Ling Feng stopped wasting words, crouched beside the already slightly broken body, and pushed Shui Kong’s hand away to support Shuiluan himself.

"You rascal!" Shui Kong was about to lose his temper when Shui Nian hit him on the head again.

"Grandpa! Why do you keep favoring this guy!" Shui Nian said aggrievedly. Even if this guy is the prophesied one, he’s receiving too many privileges, isn’t he!

A middle-aged man clad in blue armor emerged from the crowd; it was General Shui Ze, whom Shui Xia and Ling Feng encountered when they first returned. He kneeled slightly in front of Shui Kong, who was sitting on the ground, and said respectfully,

"Clan Leader, do not underestimate this person. From what I know, he indeed has healing abilities. A child of our clan, who was stranded among the Huo Clan, was saved by this guy and is currently in our medical center,"

"Although he came to make a deal, I think nothing is more important than Great General Shuiluan’s life at this moment. Please think thrice, Clan Leader!"

Hearing these words from this trusted subordinate, the irritation in Shui Kong’s heart gradually subsided, and he calmed down. He then stared at Ling Feng’s hand, which was emitting a green glow, and said calmly,

"I hope this guy truly has the capability; otherwise, I will not let him off easily!"

"Clan Leader Shui Kong, boasting is not a good habit! You should have already witnessed my strength on the territory of the Huo Clan, if it’s useless, don’t say it!"

"If you have time, prepare a cool place; I want to let Great General Shuiluan go there for treatment!" Ling Feng slightly frowned, instructing.

Shui Nian’s mind turned, and he quickly said, "If you need a cool place, how about the Holy Pond? The life force there is abundant, and the temperature is not high!"

Ling Feng nodded, "It’s best to have a place like that, the temperature must be below room temperature."

Ling Feng summoned Jin Gang and instructed it to pick up Shuiluan, reminding, "Be gentle, and be careful not to be struck by the violent energy dissipating from inside."

Jin Gang carefully picked up Shuiluan and nodded.

The group was astonished to see this giant appear suddenly. Only Shuikong, who followed Ling Feng and Jin Gang, did not bother to ask when the giant appeared and pressed on:

"What kind of injury did Shuiluan suffer that requires treatment in a place with a low temperature?"

Ling Feng shook his head without answering, and led by Shuikong, he reached the Holy Pool, and then instructed Jin Gang to place the no-longer-bleeding Shuiluan into the water.

The Holy Pool was located next to the Holy Temple, in a hidden corner. At the center of the pool stood a statue of a goddess, with pure Water of Life continually flowing from a bottle in her hand into the pool.

The Holy Pool truly lived up to its name as Shuiluan’s body was immersed in the water, which did not show any sign of turning red but instead absorbed the blood acceptably.

Then Ling Feng injected green Spiritual Power into Shuiluan’s body, causing strands of black blood to flow from Shuiluan into the pool.

The black blood reacted with the holy water of the pool, emitting white smoke and a "sizzling" sound, while Shuiluan’s brow and face contorted intensely in apparent pain, yet even in a coma, the General did not cry out despite the agony.

"What’s happening?" Shuikong asked, his face filled with anxiety, almost blurting out, "Do you even know how to heal?" But considering Ling Feng’s identity, he restrained himself.

Ling Feng shook his head and explained, "He was attacked by a kind of Black Energy, but this energy is very strange, unlike other energies that dissipate after causing damage upon entering the body,"

"But rather, it rampages within Shuiluan’s body, damaging his organs and skills. Bringing him to a place with lower temperature was to suppress the rampaging energy,"

"I didn’t expect the Holy Pool to be filled with such life essence, which is even better. With this life essence, I can treat him more effectively!"

Ling Feng’s words slightly reassured Shuikong, and even the always angry Clan Leader’s face relaxed slightly, watching Ling Feng’s back with a barely noticeable smile.

Ling Feng took out the Shadowless Needle. Although its primary function was to perform short spatial jumps during confrontations with enemies, Ling Feng’s expertise in Shennong Medical Technique had refined its use for navigating through the meridians of the injured to block energy points.

Ling Feng infused his green Spiritual Power into the Shadowless Needle, activating his Shennong Medical Technique and Divine Sense, revealing the rampaging black energy and all meridians in Shuiluan’s body clearly.

Ling Feng inserted the Shadowless Needle carrying green Spiritual Power into the points around Shuiluan’s wounds and throughout his body, temporarily restricting the rampaging energy within him.

Ling Feng then almost completely unleashed his Spiritual Power, attempting to eradicate the rampant black energy, but since the battlefield was Shuiluan’s body, even slightly losing control of the energy could cause secondary damage to Shuiluan’s body, so even Ling Feng dared not attack recklessly.

However, the rampaging black energy was ultimately bound by Ling Feng’s Shennong Spiritual Energy, and Ling Feng then used the Shadowless Needle to cut open Shuiluan’s body, creating a large wound.

Seeing Ling Feng harm Shuiluan’s body again, fury surged in Shuikong’s heart, and he nearly lunged at Ling Feng, but he was held back by Shuixia, who shook her head at her grandfather.

The wound opened by Ling Feng did not bleed at all because Ling Feng had blocked the points and meridians, preventing the blood from flowing along its normal paths.

Shuiluan had already lost too much blood earlier, so absolutely no further loss of blood and energy could be allowed.

Ling Feng injected vast amounts of green Spiritual Power from Shuiluan’s head, allowing it to quickly spread throughout his body; under this green illumination, the rampant black energy finally became visible.

But at this moment, it was no longer able to hide, as Ling Feng built barriers using his Spiritual Power in the vital parts and organs inside Shuiluan’s body, so the black energy could no longer harm them.

With nowhere else to go or harm, the black energy was forced to escape from the large wound Ling Feng had created with the Shadowless Needle.

A black spectral entity then emerged from Shuiluan’s body, floating in the air, its evil visage appearing as it glared at Ling Feng, filled with surging rage.

"This is the reason Shuiluan’s body kept getting hurt and he couldn’t wake up; I presume it’s the work of your enemy," Ling Feng said calmly, looking at the shadow.

"From here, it’s not my issue. You guys deal with it yourselves," Ling Feng smiled and shook his head.

Beside him, Shuikong, Shuize, and the Great Elder Shuinian, who had long been unable to hold back their anger, instantly attacked together, shooting three waves of blue energy at the shadow above!
