Chapter 276: Chapter 258 Senior Han Injured
Under the perspective of Observation Mode, Lin Jing saw Senior Han being supported by Chen Xing, his complexion exceptionally pale.
The clothing over his chest had been torn open by some kind of sharp weapon, revealing the hideous wound underneath.
The blood from that wound was still dripping down continuously, landing on the snow-covered ground and forming bright red plum blossom patterns.
“Senior Han, it’s all my fault, I’ve dragged you down, causing you to suffer such a serious injury…”
Chen Xing was supporting Senior Han, his face filled with guilt.
Then.
Chen Xing raised his hand, slapped his own face, full of annoyance:
“I deserve to die, I knew that surname Xu had no way out and wanted to fight back at the last moment, yet I was so careless, letting him break through my shield.”
“If it weren’t for you, Senior Han, blocking for me, I reckon I would have ended up buried alongside that surname Xu.”
Han Jing struggled to raise his hand and pressed down on Chen Xing’s arm, speaking weakly:
“It’s okay, you don’t need to blame yourself.”
“I was the one who asked for your help, naturally I can’t let you get into trouble.”
“The wounds on my body will recover in a few months.”
Chen Xing looked at Han Jing, his face full of remorse:
“But, what about the disciple competition in a few days?”
“I know you’ve been preparing for this disciple competition for a long time, Senior Han.”
“And yet, because of my carelessness, you’ve been injured so badly. With your current condition, it won’t heal in a few months.”
“You’ll also be missing out on the disciple competition.”
Han Jing then laughed softly, comforting Chen Xing:
“There are things we’re fated to have and things we shouldn’t force if we’re not…”
“As for the disciple competition, let it be.”
“You don’t need to blame yourself either.”
……
Chen Xing frowned, looking anxiously towards the yard.
“Is Junior Brother Lin not here?”
Having said that, he called out again:
“Junior Brother Lin, are you there?”
Han Jing then spoke up:
“If he’s not, then let’s forget it, we can come back in a few days…”
Seeing this, Lin Jing quickly exited Observation Mode.
He then left the System Space.
While in Observation Mode, Lin Jing had gathered some general information.
However, he was still unclear about what exactly had happened.
But Senior Han was injured now, and he could not delay any longer.
After leaving the System Space, Lin Jing headed straight out the door, walking briskly towards the entrance.
Upon opening the door, Lin Jing saw the two men.
“Senior Han…”
“Senior Han, how did you get injured?”
“Come in quickly…”
Lin Jing, with an expression of surprise as if he had just found out, hurriedly invited them in.
“What happened to you, Senior Han?”
Before they even entered the house, while they were still on the path, Lin Jing began to ask Chen Xing.
Chen Xing looked at the wound on Senior Han’s body with great remorse and said:
“It’s my fault that Senior Han got dragged into this; he got hurt trying to save me.”
“Now that he’s badly injured, it’s going to be difficult for him to participate in the upcoming disciple competition.”
“Chen Xing, it’s okay…”
“It’s not…”
“Cough… Cough…”
Senior Han started to speak, wanting to say more, but the movement aggravated his wound, causing him to cough twice.
At this, Lin Jing quickly interjected:
“Let’s not talk about other things for now…”
“Come on, let’s get inside.”
Having said that, Lin Jing lent a hand, supporting Senior Han as they walked towards the house.
Once the group entered the house, they immediately felt the chill on their bodies dissipate.
This is because, among them, some warm jade was placed inside this room.
These warm jades were a gift from Huang Qingling to Lin Jing just a few days ago.
Although Lin Jing felt that these warm jades were not very useful for a cultivator like himself,
still, Huang Qingling insisted.
And now, the effects of these warm jades were already becoming evident.
When Senior Han entered the room, the chill from outside no longer bothered him, and his face immediately looked rosier.
This showed just how serious Senior Han’s injuries were.
Even the spiritual power to protect himself from the cold was completely gone.
No wonder he had been supported by Chen Xing all this time.
“Junior Brother Lin, do you have any elixir medicine for healing injuries? Senior Han’s wounds are too severe, and we’ve just run out of our wound healing elixirs.”
Lin Jing quickly replied:
“Fortunately, you’ve come at the right time.”
As he spoke, Lin Jing hurriedly reached into his Storage Bag, pulled out a Pure Jade Box, and handed it to Senior Han.
He then said:
“Yesterday, the Elixir Valley Heir appeared, and I happened to be in the black market, so I managed to get this Pure Healing Elixir.”
“Senior Han, here…”
“You’re seriously injured right now, please take it quickly.”
The Pure Healing Elixir was precisely the one Lin Jing had just finished refining.
At this moment, he did not hesitate to take it out.
Upon seeing Lin Jing take out the Pure Jade Box, both Senior Han and Chen Xing were stunned.
It took a moment for the two to regain their composure.
“Junior Brother Lin…”
“How did you…”
“No, I mean how do you have so many Spirit Stones to purchase elixir medicines…”
Chen Xing was so astonished he was at a loss for words.
He had intended to ask Lin Jing for one or two ordinary wound healing elixirs.
Yet he never expected Lin Jing to directly produce a Pure Body Restoration Pill.
And he was also very excited.
If Senior Han took the Pure Body Restoration Pill, not only could his injuries be immediately cured, but he also wouldn’t miss out on participating in the martial arts competition for disciples.
Senior Han, however, was frowning, showing great hesitation.
Seeing Senior Han still undecided,
Chen Xing quickly reminded him.
“Senior Han, after taking this Pure Body Restoration Pill, it won’t be long before your injuries will heal,” he urged.
“Please take it quickly…”
“At this point, what is there to hesitate about?”
“Think about the disciple martial arts competition, it’s your only chance. If you miss it, who knows when the next one will be.”
“You absolutely can’t let this opportunity slip by.”
Lin Jing also spoke up at this time, quickly persuading:
“Senior Han, take it…”
“It’s just a Pure Body Restoration Pill after all. Speaking frankly, it’s worth maybe a hundred or so Spirit Stones, how can that compare to the position of a core disciple?”
“Please take it quickly.”
Upon hearing this, Han Jing’s expression gradually firmed, and he took the Pure Jade Box from Lin Jing’s hand.
Lin Jing and Chen Xing both immediately smiled.
Afterward.
Senior Han reached into his Storage Bag, took out a purple-sealed box from it, and handed it to Lin Jing.
“This belongs to you; I’ve brought it back for you,” said Senior Han.
Senior Han’s words left Lin Jing utterly confused, but he still reached out and took the sealed box.
How could this box be his when he had never even seen it before?
After speaking, Senior Han then said to Chen Xing,
“Chen Xing, explain the origins of this sealed box to Junior Brother Lin later, and how to open it…”
“I’m going to heal and recover now.”
“Alright…”
Chen Xing readily agreed.
