Chapter 953 Return to Lin Town (4)
Si Bai was extremely intelligent but was born with a weak body . Fortunately, Ye Qingtang’s help had managed to turn the course of his illness around . However, Si Bai had suffered too many losses in the past decades . Hence, Master Si had arranged for Si Bai to travel a thousand miles away to somewhere where he could convalescence quietly, in hopes of speeding up his recovery .
Si Bai had been convalescing there for more than a year .
Ye Qingtang nodded when she heard Si Ye’s words .
As they were speaking, Master Si coughed repeatedly, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth .
When he saw that, Si Ye’s expression changed .
Half a year ago, Master Si had been injured by a powerful cultivator from the Long Family . Although his injuries had healed, he was old, and it was unavoidable that some chronic ailments remained .
“Grandfather Si’s injury…” Ye Qingtang looked at Master Si and asked .
“Hmph, it’s all the doing of that Long Family and that Duan Family . ” Master Si grunted coldly . When he mentioned the two families, he gritted his teeth in hatred .
“Long Family and Duan Family…” That was also Ye Qingtang’s guess, but she was somewhat surprised to hear it from Master Si .
“Ai…” Master Si sighed softly . “Tang Tang, you have left Lin Town for almost two years . There are many things that you don’t know about . A year ago, the Long Family moved into Lin Town . They were extremely domineering, and they exploited the Ye Family and the Si Family in many ways . We resisted a few times, and I was injured as a result . ”
“The Long Family is just too powerful . Rumor has it that the head of the family is a half-step Yin Yang Perfected Lord… We are helpless in the face of such a powerful cultivator . ” Si Ye’s face was filled with resignation .
Si Ye had intended to ask the City Lord of Fallen Stars City for help, but although they had sent many messages, they had not received a reply .
There was no news of Mu Su . It was as if he had disappeared into thin air .
Fortunately, the Long Family had not annexed the Si Family or the Ye Family . It was as if the Si and Ye families were beneath them . After all, in the eyes of the Long Family, these two families were as insignificant as ants .
“Grandfather Si, let me examine your injuries,” Ye Qingtang said to Master Si .
Master Si sighed when he heard that . “My injuries have healed, but they gave rise to chronic ailments that I am unable to recover from . ”
Without saying anything else, Ye Qingtang stepped forward and used her primordial qi to examine his body .
Master Si’s injuries had indeed healed; it was just that the chronic ailments were deeply rooted . If they were not completely eradicated, he would not live for many more years .
“Grandfather, it’s nothing . Just rest for a few more days, and I’m sure you’ll be better . ” Si Ye frowned as he spoke .
But Master Si shook his head at Si Ye’s words . “Si Ye, Grandfather is old but not senile . I am well aware of my own body . I’ll be lucky if I’m not dead within half a year . Now, Grandfather’s greatest wish is for our Si Family to be safe . ”
Si Ye gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, but he did not say a word .
Of course, he knew about his grandfather’s condition .
Everyone knew that the Si Family’s Third Young Master, Si Bai, was physically weak . However, they did not know that Master Si’s health was now so poor .
His grandfather’s chronic ailments had previously been suppressed by elixirs . But now, the elixirs available on the market had long lost their effectiveness, and his chronic ailments would flare up every half a month .
“Grandfather Si, I have an elixir . ”
Ye Qingtang smiled and took out a fiery red healing elixir from her space ring .
