Nine Yang Sword Saint

“Really?” A pleasantly surprised radiance exploded out from Ling Wu’s beautiful eyes as she replied, “So long as you can save my father, I’m willing to pay any price.”

Immediately after, she continued embarrassingly, “However, I don’t have anything that you will fancy.”

“So long as you don’t seduce me and test my willpower, causing me to make a mistake. I’m already very grateful for it.” Yang Dingtian replied.

“Alright, then. I will leave immediately.” Ling Wu released Yang Dingtian and spoke, “Tomorrow, you must save my father.”

After this, she ran out like a butterfly.

****************************

The next morning, before daybreak, Ling Wu ran towards Yang Dingtian’s room and pulled him up from his bed.

“Quick. Quickly go and treat my father.”

Yang Dingtian woke up with hazy eyes. Following after, he washed up and changed his clothes with her assistance.

When he arrived at the hall, he saw Ling Zhong was already sitting there in proper clothing. He couldn’t help but be slightly startled, “Uncle Ling, you are early.”

It was really early. If it was converted to the earth’s timestamp, it was not even 5:00 AM in the morning.

Ling Zhong smiled embarrassingly.

Yang Dingtian discovered that his pair of eyes were very red and he was very excited and extremely anxious.

Yang Dingtian looked back at Ling Wu, who was the same too.

Subsequently, Yang Dingtian replied, “Don’t tell me both of you have not slept for the night?”

Immediately after, Ling Zhong’s smile became even more embarrassed as he spoke, “Originally, I told Ling Wu not to wake Hero Yan. However, she couldn’t control herself.”

This father and daughter pair actually didn’t sleep. They had waited for an entire night for Yang Dingtian to wake up to treat Ling Zhong. Yang Dingtian immediately felt the responsibility on his shoulder becoming very heavy.

Ling Zhong sighed, “I have truly made a fool out of myself in front of Hero Yan. If it isn’t because I wish to continue living on and the fact that I am reluctant to part with my daughter just yet. I truly couldn’t bear to hand this tremendous responsibility to her and let her suffer. If I couldn’t see her get married and have children, I will not die contentedly.”

After he spoke, Ling Zhong was immediately filled with tears as he spoke in a sobbing voice.

“I can understand.” Yang Dingtian replied, “However, I can only try my best. I’m not certain if I would succeed, and I truly am not certain.”

Yang Dingtian truly wasn’t certain.

Without a doubt, the thing that he wanted to use for treating Ling Zhong was obviously the holy water that he stole from the Five Elements Hall secret realm. Originally, he stole it for Yanyan to use. However, when he saw how Ling Zhong was, he couldn’t bear to leave him in the lurch. He couldn’t guarantee that this holy water would still be effective after leaving the secret realm. If, by any chance, it was ineffective, it would truly be making the father and daughter fall down from heaven to hell.

“So long as Hero does his best, I would be deeply grateful.” Ling Zhong replied, “Even if there is one percent hope, it’s still worth our unbounded joy.”

Ling Wu’s beautiful eyes turned red, “Hero can start the treatment. Regardless of whether the treatment is successful or not, you are still our Ling Clan’s biggest benefactor.”

“Alright.” Yang Dingtian replied, “I have to request Young Lady Ling Wu to prepare a bucket of clear water. Don’t put anything inside.”

“Sure. I’ll go right away.” Ling Wu immediately dashed out after she heard the request.

Not long later, she carried a big wooden bucket in. It was filled with clear water and weighed about several hundreds of kilograms. Yet, she had carried it in alone.

“Give me a bowl.” Yang Dingtian commented.

“What kind of bowl? Jade, gold, or crystal stone?” Ling Wu inquired. Currently, she felt that the more precious the item she was going to use, the better the effect it could bring.

“Just an ordinary one would be fine.” Yang Dingtian replied.

“Alright. I will get it immediately.” After Ling Wu spoke, she dashed out again.

Very quickly, she carried a pile of bowls in. There were all kinds of bowls in them.

Yang Dingtian laughed bitterly. He then picked up a bowl casually before pretending to take out an elixir from his belongings and placed it into the bowl.

Of course, this was just an ordinary Holy Spirit Elixir. It was only used to fool people.

However, the father and daughter stared at Yang Dingtian’s movement attentively. They seemed like they were about to suffocate from the nervous situation.

Yang Dingtian placed the bowl inside his sleeve. Afterward, he scooped out about half a bowl of holy water from his spatial ring. He had roughly stolen a basin of the holy water. Therefore, he could only give him a little less than half a bowl of it. The remaining will have to be set aside for Yanyan.

That elixir dissolved inside the holy water very quickly.

Afterward, Yang Dingtian handed it over to Ling Zhong, “Uncle Ling, drink half of the medicine and soak yourself in the other half.”

Ling Wu was slightly astounded, “It’s, it’s just so simple?”

Originally, she thought that it would be extremely complicated and profound. Unexpectedly, it was actually so simple.

“Eh. It’s just so simple.” Yang Dingtian smiled.

Ling Zhong’s hands trembled as he received the bowl. His breathing became extremely hurried while his lips shuddered. He used his every bit of strength to alleviate the trembling on both his hands, for fear that he would spill this incomparably precious medicine even by a drop.

He used his remaining strength and drank this medicine bit by bit.

He drank half of it with extreme caution. Afterward, he handed the bowl over to Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian poured the remaining medicine into clear water and commented, “Uncle Ling, soak yourself in it for a while. Wait for 15 minutes, and we will be able to see if it is effective. Nobody Yan will be helpless if it’s ineffective.”

“Sure, sure…” Ling Zhong replied while trembling.

Immediately after, Yang Dingtian went forward and carried Ling Zhong before placing him into the clear water that was mixed with the medicine.

He was really skinny and was completely emaciated. He was 180cm tall yet only weighed about 40 to 45 kilograms. He was practically just skin and bones. It was clearly visible how serious his injuries were at that time. All of these were done by that fake Yang Dingtian.

Ling Wu became extremely nervous after he was soaked into the medicine. Even her breathing had become abnormal as she stared closely at her father with her beautiful eyes. She inquired hurriedly even before 30 seconds had passed, “Father, how do you feel?”

“Foolish girl, how can it be so quick?” Ling Zhong spoke with a trembling voice.

Three minutes later.

Ling Wu inquired again, “Father, how do you feel?”

“Foolish girl, how can it be so quick?” Ling Zhong replied.

Eight minutes.

Ten minutes.

Fifteen minutes.

Ultimately, there was not much of a change or improvement to Ling Zhong.

Ling Wu’s expression became more and more frightened while her face grew more and more deathly pale.

Ling Zhong’s smile became more and more astringent.

Meanwhile, Yang Dingtian’s heart grew colder.

Could it be that the holy water was really ineffective after leaving the secret realm?

Please don’t! Yang Dingtian really couldn’t bear to see the people before him to fall into despair.

Half an hour later, just as Ling Wu was about to abandon all of her hopes. She inquired with sadness, “Father, how do you feel?”

Currently, Ling Zhong had completely come into acceptance as he smiled nonchalantly, “Foolish girl, what’s there to cry for. So long as you are fine…”

Immediately, Ling Wu started crying.

Yang Dingtian was also feeling distressed about it. He bowed deeply, “Uncle Ling, Young Lady Ling Wu, I’m sorry.”

“What are you saying?” Ling Zhong smiled, “Life and death are decided by heaven. I’m already extremely grateful that Hero had done his best to save me.”

“That’s right…” Ling Wu smiled at Yang Dingtian, “Big Brother Yan clearly knew that the chances were very uncertain. Yet, you were still willing to try it and had even wasted an extremely precious medicine. Ling Wu is already extremely grateful. Just like what father had said. All of this is fate!”

“Ahhh…” It was at this moment, Ling Zhong suddenly cried out, “Very hot, it’s burning…”

A moment later, a beam of red light rapidly spread out around Ling Zhong’s body under Ling Wu and Yang Dingtian’s surprised gaze.

Immediately after, Ling Zhong had become younger at the speed at which it could be seen from naked eyes under the surprising and unbelievable eyes of Yang Dingtian and Ling Wu. His aged muscles became rosy as unlimited vigor and energy were recovering in his body rapidly.

This holy water was actually so miraculous?

“Waaa…” Unexpectedly, Ling Wu started to weep under extreme surprise.

Shortly after, she turned around and threw herself towards Yang Dingtian as she hugged him tightly. She had completely disregarded Ling Zhong as she kissed Yang Dingtian lips ferociously.

“Thank you, thank you, Big Brother Yan…”

*********************************

Indeed, this holy water was extremely miraculous. In just a few short hours, Ling Zhong had fully recovered from his injuries. The aged him had unexpectedly turned younger by 20 to 30 years, making him seem like he was about 40 years old. He had completely recovered his previous extraordinary and martial appearance. But not only so, his mystic qi and martial arts were also recovering rapidly.

This result was completely better than what he had anticipated.

On that day, all of Ling Zhong’s broken meridians were recovered. Unexpectedly, only half a bowl of holy water was needed for him to completely recover from such a fatal injury.

Didn’t this signify that Yanyan could also recover completely as well?

After Ling Zhong had fully recovered, the first sentence he spoke was, “Ling Wu, you must never tell anyone today’s matter. Otherwise, it would bring forth boundless troubles for Hero Yan.”

Ling Wu nodded her head heavily, “Father can be assured. I would rather die than to cause Big Brother Yan from getting into risky situations.”

When Ling Zhong heard Ling Wu’s words, he was slightly startled. His daughter seemed to have fallen really deep.

*******************************

After Ling Zhong had recovered, Yang Dingtian started to speed up his annihilation plan that was going to happen to the Black Blood Island in two to three days.

In the afternoon after Ling Zhong had recovered, the brothers of Black Blood Cavalry had actually arrived one after another. Because they were scattered far apart, they were unable to gather all at one go.

After the brothers of Black Blood Cavalry had arrived, Ling Zhong and Ling Wu’s morale immediately rose up.

Because the Black Blood Cavalry was clearly omitting intense soldier aura. They were certainly formidable reinforcement. This time, they were a lot more confident in bringing down the Black Blood Island that was going to happen in two days.

At night, Yang Dingtian, Ling Wu, Ling Zhong, and a few of the officers from the Black Blood Cavalry had started to conduct the operational deployments.

The map of Black Blood Island was drawn on the wall, and Ling Zhong had spent a huge price to obtain it. However, with the help of this map, a lot of information became clear to them.

To come out unscathed through a hundred battles, know yourself and know your enemy.
