Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 586 The Soul Is Poisoned

The jeep takes a few turns and runs for approximately half an hour. Within the drive, Gao Ge keeps looking out of the car and finds that much fewer passers-by are in the street, with the number of cars also reduced.

“The news can’t be blocked for much longer, but we are not going to block it anymore, for we have found one thing,” While getting out of the car, Fire Dragon says to Gao Ge, “So many people leave Qiu City, but the plague hasn’t been found in the other cities.”

Slightly stunned, Gao Ge asks, “That is to say, the target is only Qiu City.”

Fire Dragon nods his head. The conclusion goes without saying.

Gao Ge takes a deep breath.

What have the folks of Qiu City done?

This is basically unexpected trouble!

They walk into an alley and then enter a courtyard.

There are quite some members of the Dragon Court standing in the courtyard, including Tang Jiusi and Master Guanshan.

Gao Ge is not so surprised to see them but they are really astonished to see him.

“Gao Ge, why are you here?” Tang Jiusi hurriedly goes forward and asks.

These days, Tang Jiusi has been going out early and coming back late, so Gao Ge doesn’t feel surprised to see him here.

“Ask these two persons.” Gao Ge glimpses Fire Dragon and Water Dragon.

Tang Jiusi coughs. How can he have the guts to ask them…

“Go inside,” Fire Dragon says.

Gao Ge nods his head. Following behind Fire Dragon, he enters a room.

In the room, there is a man busy working.

Gao Ge used to see him in the Dragon Court but they never talked with each other. This man seems to be under the Medical Department, with his code as Hua Tuo. He pursues Taoism through medical practices, who is an excellent old doctor of traditional Chinese medicine.

Seeing that Gao Ge and Fire Dragon come inside, Hua Tuo wipes the sweat off his head.

“Lord Fire Dragon, here you come.”

“Yeah, how is it going on?” Fire Dragon asks.

Amidst talking, he fixes his eyes on Master Wen lying in bed.

Hua Tuo heaves a sigh and says with a bitter smile, “Lord Fire Dragon, I can’t diagnose Wen Yihuan for now, let alone treat him. However, his symptoms and those of the plague patients are somewhat alike.”

“What do you mean?”

“It is a soul injury too.”

“Soul injury?” Gao Ge is a bit shocked, “Is it done by the Ghost Sect?”

Only the people of the Ghost Sect can injure the cultivator’s soul harshly.

Of course, the world is full of wonders.

Maybe some people still can do it, but by now Gao Ge hasn’t met any one of them.

He only knows that the people of the Ghost Sect can do it.

“It’s hard to say now,” Fire Dragon says, “So far, we have met some ghosts only, but not any one person of the Ghost Sect.”

Gao Ge nods his head.

“What do you think of it? Any solution?” Fire Dragon asks.

Gao Ge takes a look at Fire Dragon and says, “No problem. I have encountered a similar situation before.”

“This time, it may be a bit different,” Fire Dragon says with a frown.

“Different?” Gao Ge is a bit taken aback.

What is different?

“You take a look first. It is our guess only.” Fire Dragon seems to keep him guessing deliberately instead of answering him directly.

Gao Ge nods his head and strides forward.

“Humph. This old guy refused to leave with me when I quit the Dragon Court. He is not a loyal friend at all,” Staring at Master Wen lying in bed, Gao Ge can’t help saying with a grin.

Fire Dragon says snappishly, “Didn’t Yue Xincheng, Xia Lu and some others follow you? You think you brought too few people away? And He Youniang is the treasure of Haicheng Cultivation Academy but she also left because of you. If I hadn’t rushed to Haicheng Cultivation Academy to pacify the students, maybe plenty of them would have left the Academy out of anger.”

Gao Ge coughs.

Gao Ge is not surprised about what Fire Dragon said.

Fire Dragon drags a chair over, sits down and continues, “To be honest, a lot of people were taunting you back then. Some of them even wondered whether you intended to set up a sect or a school on your own.”

Gao Ge laughs, “I don’t have so much time.”

With narrowed eyes, Fire Dragon says profoundly, “Actually, it is not a bad thing to establish a sect or a school.”

Gao Ge takes a glance at Fire Dragon curiously. Fire Dragon coughs and changes the topic, “Enough. Cure him now.”

Gao Ge stops hesitating then.

When Gao Ge transfers his power of stars into Wen Yihuan’s body, he immediately feels some strange changes.

Chen Guo and Xia Lu were spiritually injured before but it was quite easy for Gao Ge to treat them. He only exerted his power of stars to restore their souls, which took him a lot of power of stars and time.

However, when he tries to restore Wen Yihuan’s strength, he has got a strange feeling.

Metaphorically speaking, when Gao Ge’s wound starts to fill in with new flesh, it is beaten by a fierce beast again.

Having taken a deep breath, he stands up.

“What do you think of it?” Fire Dragon asks.

“It’s a bit thorny,” Gao Ge says with a bitter smile, “Currently, I don’t have any good solution. He is not spiritually injured.”

“What is that then?” Fire Dragon asks.

Actually, Gao Ge knows that Fire Dragon has had a conjecture in his heart but he is not sure of it now. He only hopes that the answer he gives unknowingly is aligned with their conjecture.

Hence, he directly says, “I think his soul is poisoned rather than injured.”

Fire Dragon is relieved.

He feels as if a heavy burden is lifted off his shoulders.

Hua Tuo also nods his head slightly.

“You agree?” Gao Ge asks.

“Exactly,” Fire Dragon replies, “In fact, on treating soul injuries, there are some medicines in the Dragon Court. Of course, they don’t work really well, but they do work and cost dearly. However, to our expectation, they can’t work now. Well, I can’t say that it is of no use. The problem is, he will get slightly better after taking the medicines but very soon, he will go back to the starting point.”

“Back to the starting point? Standing before the mirror in a daze?”

Fire Dragon yells angrily, “I brought you here to save a patient, not to sing a song!”

With a bitter smile, Gao Ge says, “I’m trying to be cheerful amidst adverse circumstances. But Lord Fire Dragon, I can’t help you with it at all, because I don’t know what to do about it.”

“Now there are plenty of people in the same condition as Wen Yihuan in Qiu City, but Wen Yihuan’s condition is more serious than theirs. It seems that the ringleader wants to directly get rid of him.”

“I can keep him alive temporarily,” Gao Ge thinks about it and speaks. After all, his power of stars can be of any help to some degree.

However, it is not a permanent solution, because he can only prolong Wen Yihuan’s life. That’s all.
