Chapter 891: This Despicable Person
Ling Chuxi squeezed it but couldn’t judge the value of the insignia. It seemed to be like gold and yet also like jade, and felt moist and cool in her hand. It was hard like iron but also as light as wood.
“What is this?” Ling Chuxi asked curiously. She couldn’t figure out what it was for. It could be a token, but it was obviously a little too big. Who would carry such a big token with them? Wouldn’t it be too troublesome? However, it was also too small to be a decoration, and surely wouldn’t be noticed when hung in a room.
“This is an extraordinary treasure from the ancestors of the Wei family. I don’t know what exactly it is, but it’s definitely not a common item. Otherwise, my ancestors wouldn’t have pa.s.sed it down from generation to generation.” Wei Zhixuan was afraid that Ling Chuxi would ask for even more and explained quickly.
“Okay then, you may go now. After the Golden Pill Sect holds the opening ceremony, we will inherit the Jade Peak Sect’s properties.” Ling Chuxi put away the insignia as if it was naturally hers and took the perfume and meridian pills too. She felt that Wei Zhixuan was not lying because the material of the insignia was indeed very special, and its vivid carvings were very unusual.
Fortunately, Ling Chuxi did not make any more requests. Wei Zhixuan breathed a sigh of relief, wiped off his sweat and quickly led his men away.
Su Yanhua and the others walked up happily and congratulated Ling Chuxi again and again. Their eyes were full of respect when they looked at her.
“Wuhen, how are your injuries? Take this.” Ling Chuxi thought about Jiang Wuhen’s injury, and pushed through the crowd to hand him the perfume and meridian pills. Although the pills were given to Jiang Wuhen, these pills had been from Wei Zhixuan. Since Wei Zhixuan had been the one who had injured Jiang Wuhen earlier, this pill was best given to him.
Jiang Wuhen was still happily leaning on Su Xiu’er’s shoulder, but when he heard Ling Chuxi’s words, his face suddenly turned pale. His body shook vigorously, and he staggered and fell forward.
“Jiang Wuhen, what’s wrong?” Su Xiu’er was taken aback and hurriedly stepped forward to help him.
Jiang Wuhen staggered again, clearly falling forward but making an unusually sharp turn to fall into Su Xiu’er’s embrace. “Ah… I was badly injured. My internal organs, meridians, and breathing aren’t right…” Jiang Wuhen said hoa.r.s.ely, coughing out blood.
“You were fine just now, what happened?” Although Su Xiu’er came from a medical household, she was still young, and had never experienced something like this. She subconsciously hugged Jiang Wuhen anxiously.
“I didn’t want to worry you all and tried to suppress it… But I couldn’t hold it back for long.. “Jiang Wuhen coughed pitifully, finding an excuse to lay on Su Xiu’er’s shoulder.
After listening to Jiang Wuhen’s words, Su Xiu’er felt touched and guilty. If it weren’t for them returning first, Jiang Wuhen wouldn’t have been hurt like this.
‘This despicable person!’ The corners of Ling Chuxi’s mouth twitched. She was speechless and could only curse in her heart.
With Ling Chuxi’s abilities, of course she could see that Jiang Wuhen had not completely healed from the injury, but he was definitely not injured that badly! She had no clue where that blood had come from. Furthermore, she had fed him a pill earlier, and how could a pill that she personally refined be useless? It would be an insult to her pill refinement skills. This guy was really too despicable, using an excuse like that to lean into Su Xiu’er’s embrace and rub his head against her chest!
