Chapter 256: Chapter 256

The woman actually agreed, agreeing to entrust her critically injured disciple to Xiaoyao. This surprised everyone. Could it be that this woman didn't care about her own disciple?

No, that couldn't be. If she didn't care, why was she so anxious just now?

At this time, no one could figure it out. They could only watch how this situation developed - whether Xiaoyao could really cure the girl. Many people suspected the girl would be killed by Xiaoyao's treatment.

But reality once again exceeded people's expectations. Xiaoyao's treatment quickly made the girl's pale complexion begin to turn rosy. Just a few acupuncture needles, a few pills, then circulating energy for healing, it looked quite simple, but the effects seemed obvious.

After circulating energy to heal and disperse the medicine's effects, Xiaoyao treated the girl's injuries again, setting the fractured bones back in place. His technique was very skilled, from this point, his medical arts should be quite good.

Next, Xiaoyao circulated energy for healing once more, sitting cross-legged on the ground to help heal, with no other movements. This made others feel bored, but one thing they could be certain of, something they dared not believe, was that this girl had already escaped danger and been saved by Xiaoyao.

Generally at this time, if it were Tian Yi, he would have handed the girl who had escaped danger to others for care and gone to treat other critically wounded patients. But Xiaoyao didn't do this, he continued treating only this girl. This was too wasteful of resources.

At this time, everyone acknowledged Xiaoyao's medical skills and hoped Xiaoyao could help save others, rather than just treating one patient who had already escaped danger and only needed slow recovery.

However, at this time, no one could say this. Because Xiaoyao helping people was already very good, just now he had wanted to leave directly. At least now he had saved one person, reducing the burden a little.

Time passed bit by bit. Wounded continued being brought in, treated, and placed aside to rest, while Xiaoyao still continued healing the girl.

"Hey, you've been treating her for a long time. You can let go now and help save others," someone finally couldn't help saying to Xiaoyao.

Before Xiaoyao could respond, someone had already acted first, the woman. She struck out with a palm, sending the speaker flying. If she didn't want to add trouble now, perhaps this palm wouldn't just send him flying but might have crippled him.

"What do you mean 'can let go'? My disciple hasn't woken up yet. This kid has no time for others, and even if he had time, he wouldn't care about others' business. Don't bother us." the woman said very domineeringly. Originally she was already furious about her disciple's injury, and now someone was telling Xiaoyao to stop saving her disciple - how could she stand it?

"Surnamed Yue, don't think you're so great just because you're Emperor Level. You're not the only Emperor Level here. Don't be so arrogant." At this time, a figure flashed over, catching the person who had been struck down, and said coldly to the woman.

The newcomer seemed to have some old grudges with this woman, his gaze very unfriendly.

From this person's skills and tone, he should also have Emperor Level strength. What he said wasn't wrong either - there really weren't few Emperor Level people here. Although normally Emperor Level was rarely seen, this was during the orthodox alliance gathering. To compete for the alliance leader position, each sect would definitely send experts.

"Whether I'm arrogant or not is none of your business. Manage your own people well, don't cause trouble for nothing." the woman said coldly.

"I'll manage my people, but only when they do wrong. Just now he wasn't wrong, he just wanted everyone to get better treatment. Rather than let your disciple waste resources, better to give those resources to everyone," the man said unyieldingly.

"How ridiculous. When did I become your resource? Did I ever say I would save you all?" Before the woman could speak, Xiaoyao's voice had already carried over.

Xiaoyao's words reminded everyone of one thing, now Xiaoyao was the one with initiative. He could save whoever he wanted, this wasn't for others to decide.

"..." The man immediately felt embarrassed and speechless. He hadn't expected Xiaoyao to say this, making him feel like his face had been severely slapped. So his look toward Xiaoyao also became unfriendly.

Just a young man, even if he had medical skills, they couldn't be that advanced. No need to give him any good treatment.

"Well said. He's only willing to treat my disciple, what business is it of yours?" The woman felt great. Xiaoyao's words made her feel very satisfied, mainly because Xiaoyao's words were backing her up, though even without it, she wouldn't be afraid.

"Kid, I advise you to look at who you're dealing with. With so many people here, if you want to curry favor, you should choose your targets. If you abandon her disciple now and help all of us, it would definitely be better than helping her." the man said to Xiaoyao with a cold smile.

In his opinion, if Xiaoyao could choose, he should choose what he suggested. However, he was wrong - very wrong.

"Even if you all died, as long as I save her one person, that would be enough. You're all completely unimportant people," Xiaoyao said indifferently. This statement offended many people here.

Was this his momentary angry words? Was it because he wanted to contradict that man?

No, Xiaoyao would never let such people affect his mood, much less affect his actions. His reason for doing this was very simple - because...

"Kid, you're seeking death." The man was enraged, provoked by Xiaoyao. He rushed forward, wanting to strike down Xiaoyao with one palm.

"The one seeking death is you." The woman was also angry. These people kept disturbing Xiaoyao's healing, and right in front of her face, they even wanted to injure Xiaoyao.

All this combined made the woman very furious. She directly attacked the man with full force, making him have to turn back to defend and abandon attacking Xiaoyao.

"Surnamed Yue, do you really want to fight me?" The man was angry but also somewhat surprised. He felt that even killing Xiaoyao shouldn't make this woman so furious, as if he had killed her relative.

For such a small fry like Xiaoyao, couldn't she just find another one? Making such deep enmity with himself wasn't good. He thought this way too and didn't want to create too deep a grudge with the woman.

Attacking Xiaoyao, besides being unable to save face, was also because he felt Xiaoyao wouldn't matter to the woman.

"It's not that I want to, but that you want to. If you dare touch him once, we'll be mortal enemies." the woman said coldly.

"Just a kid - is it worth it? Could he be your boy toy?" the man asked somewhat puzzledly.

This statement made the woman's face turn somewhat red, whether from embarrassment or anger was unclear.

"You're the boy toy, your whole family are boy toys." Xiaoyao expressed his opinion at this time. Being called a boy toy, could he have no opinion?

"Kid, don't push your luck. Even if she's protecting you, I can still kill you. Do you believe it or not." the man said with a cold face.

The woman and Xiaoyao said simultaneously.

"Don't believe it? I'll make you believe." The man prepared to act again.

"Stop. You're not welcome here. Please leave." Tian Yi spoke at this time. Originally he was still treating people and hadn't noticed someone arguing with Xiaoyao. Now that he discovered it, he immediately spoke to stop it.

At the same time, Tian Yi reminded the other party of one thing, this was Medicine Immortal Ridge. Anyone who acted here would be listed by Medicine Immortal Ridge as an unwelcome person.

"Sorry, Sect Master Tian. I was just joking, don't take it seriously," the man immediately changed his expression. He didn't want to be driven away by Medicine Immortal Ridge. This would not only be embarrassing but would also lose Medicine Immortal Ridge as medical security.

From today's situation, Medicine Immortal Ridge's medical arts were indeed very strong. Such a major accident with so many injured people had all been treated and saved. Didn't this prove everything?

"If it's a joke, then don't make such jokes anymore. I hope you can be more well-behaved." Tian Yi said, too lazy to argue about anything. Wasting time on this person now wasn't worth it.

"I know, I know. But Sect Master Tian, you should also discipline your subordinates. This kind of kid really needs discipline."

"Sorry, he's not my subordinate. I can't control him. And relatively speaking, I think you're the one who needs the word 'discipline' more." Tian Yi said calmly.

"I..." Now the man had anger with nowhere to vent. He hadn't expected that as a dignified Emperor Level martial artist, he would be so frustrated, too uncomfortable.

This kid wasn't from Medicine Immortal Ridge, how could he be here healing people?

This question was actually something Tian Yi and others wanted to know too. Why did Xiaoyao suddenly change his mind to treat people? Although he said he had eighty percent confidence, basically there wouldn't be any problems, why act?

Other more serious injuries weren't simple for him to want to help with, and even if he helped, he didn't need to keep channeling energy to heal this girl. There must be a problem here.

Indeed, there was a problem. Soon everyone would understand why.

The girl slowly opened her eyes. Her first thought was: I'm still alive, I'm not dead. Her second thought was: why is there a warm current of true qi in my body? Wherever this true qi went, it was like a spring breeze, making her feel vitality.

This true qi obviously wasn't her own - it seemed someone was treating her. This was her third thought. She felt someone behind her helping channel energy for healing. Who was this person? Why did this feeling seem so familiar, just like that time when...

No, impossible. How could he be here? It must be an illusion.
