Chapter 2432: Want to Die, Seriously

“Meng Qi, are you returning with us to Chang’an or are you heading back to Ye City?” Pang De casually asked, but clearly, he was notifying Ma Chao not to linger and to quickly return to Chang’an, since things were settled now, there was no need to remain in Ye City, which constantly created awkward situations.

“Lord Wenn has ended up like this, I’ll head to Ye City to take a look first and then come back soon.” Ma Chao thought for a moment, patting Flyingsha’s neck.

On the other side, Zhao Yun sped along the way, carrying Lyu Bu in a flustered manner towards Ye City.

“Physician Hua, Dr. Zhang, help!” Zhao Yun was truly anxious this time, he raced to Ye City but inexplicably felt Lyu Bu’s heartbeat weaken, it seemed to spell disaster, if this was true, he wouldn’t be able to explain it to his mother-in-law and wife.

“Zilong, what’s the matter?” Hua Tuo, who was cutting herbal medicines, saw Zhao Yun descending from the sky, flustered and calling out, raised an eyebrow, and then saw Lyu Bu in Zhao Yun’s arms, pale-faced yet retaining his domineering presence.

“Uh, this person has already entered a state of suspended animation.” Hua Tuo observed for a while and said, “Moreover, his vital energy is chaotic, consciousness dormant, close to true death.”

“Physician Hua, hurry and save him!” Zhao Yun exclaimed in shock upon hearing this, and quickly urged, if Lyu Bu dies, he would be unable to defend himself today.

“Put him inside, I’ll fetch my tools and begin treatment. This kind of injury, I feel somewhat familiar.” Hua Tuo said while walking inside, recalling that he had encountered such an injury before, but no matter, save the person first.

By the time Hua Tuo arrived with his equipment and prepared medicine, Lyu Bu had already lost his heartbeat, Zhao Yun was pale with fright, but fortunately, Hua Tuo quickly healed Lyu Bu’s injuries, restoring his heartbeat.

“It’s a bit problematic…” Hua Tuo, seemingly having healed all external injuries in a short time, suddenly looked up at Zhao Yun and spoke, then turned to Lyu Bu on the bed, who began to experience capillary rupture throughout his body, quickly becoming a bloodied person.

“Zilong, go find Physician Zhongjing, he’s doing free consultations with his apprentices in the west of the city today, this fellow’s injury is not in the body, or rather the bodily injuries don’t significantly affect him, the issue lies here.” Hua Tuo pointed solemnly at Lyu Bu’s head, indicating consciousness.

Just as he wondered why it felt particularly familiar before, to put it bluntly, this is exactly like Zhou Tai’s situation, but compared to the past Zhou Tai, Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing’s medical skills have now made considerable breakthroughs, however what makes Hua Tuo find it tricky is, back then Zhou Tai’s instincts were already dead, whereas the one lying here still retains the instincts of a living being.

Simply put, back then Zhou Tai could be casually manipulated by Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing without any issue, but now with Lyu Bu, Hua Tuo had already attempted to use his Spirit Talent, to reverse Lyu Bu’s life force, aiming to restore Lyu Bu’s condition in one go.

However, before Hua Tuo could reverse Lyu Bu’s life force to normal, he realized that if he continued, not only would Lyu Bu suffer fatal trauma, but he himself would too.

By then, Zhou Tai had already lost his Inner Qi, with his extremely strong body, Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing could handle him however they liked without any problem, but Lyu Bu’s current situation is entirely different.

To reverse Lyu Bu’s life force to an hour earlier, directly restoring him completely, there is a life state where Lyu Bu’s Heart Tribulation is at maximum outbreak.

The process during Lyu Bu’s Sky Piercer throw was, Heart Power erupted, power soared without limit, his body could no longer withstand this power, yet his formidable will still unleashed this invincible force, after he finished speaking, his will relaxed, causing a full-body rupture.

Reversing it, because Lyu Bu’s consciousness hasn’t dissipated, and Inner Qi remains, there is still a great eruption, the issue being even if Hua Tuo rapidly treats Lyu Bu’s bodily injuries, without Lyu Bu’s invincible will to cooperate, it’s impossible to reverse the life state.

The reason is simple, without Lyu Bu’s invincible will, reversing life to the moment of great eruption, Lyu Bu would become debris, taking Hua Tuo with him into oblivion, which is why Hua Tuo had to stop.

The problematic aspect now is, Lyu Bu’s consciousness has entered slumber, of course, if Lyu Bu’s consciousness hadn’t descended into slumber, only relying on his invincible will would be enough to keep him lively without causing the current situation.

“Alright, I’ll go right away.” Zhao Yun saw Hua Tuo’s serious expression and hesitated before asking, “So Physician Hua, is Lord Wenn very difficult to treat?”

“Extremely difficult, my abilities are basically rendered useless. The force he uses, without his own will’s cooperation, is enough to turn him into dust in that instant, naturally, I would become dust too.” Hua Tuo said solemnly, “Wait, who did you say he was?”

“Lord Wenn Lyu Fengxian!” Zhao Yun didn’t immediately realize.

“Ah, I see, no wonder he can wield such power, rest assured, I definitely won’t let him die.” Hua Tuo’s eyes suddenly gleamed, this is after all Lyu Bu, the top expert of Shatter Void, extremely valuable for research, first draw blood, then slice for study.

“Well, I’m off to find Physician Zhongjing first.” Zhao Yun nodded, saying, and hesitated a bit before reminding, “Uh, Physician Hua, don’t do anything reckless, otherwise I won’t be able to explain to my mother-in-law and my wife.”

Hua Tuo waved dismissively, signaling Zhao Yun to go find Zhang Zhongjing while he himself stayed to research Lyu Bu and see if he could resolve the issue.

Zhao Yun, riding his Night Illuminating Jade Lion, wore a conflicted expression. He now had to find a way to explain to his mother-in-law and his wife that this matter truly had nothing to do with him.

“Ha, Sunx Bofu, didn’t expect you’d come. Come, let me see how much you’ve improved recently!” Just when Zhao Yun was feeling troubled, Ma Chao’s excited voice came from the north of the city.

Having been tormented by Old Man Tong for a month, Ma Chao felt his strength had drastically increased. Upon seeing Sunx Ce riding the Flying Yellow Horse, he immediately became excited. After weeks of hard work and being struck by lightning countless times, he finally mastered this power. Aside from dealing with Lyu Bu, wasn’t it all to show off in front of his friends? This time, he’s determined to give Sunx Ce a good beating!

Previously, whenever Ma Chao and Sunx Ce clashed, it ended with both of them battered and bruised, but this time Ma Chao firmly believed he would win. “You have no idea what my life has been like this past month, being haunted by the shadow of Lord Wenn wanting to beat me up in the skies, and being tormented daily by Old Man Tong in reality.”

Now Lyu Bu’s shadow is gone, Tong Yuan doesn’t torment me anymore, and after more than a month of hard work, seeing you now, I can finally hold my head high.

“Ha, Ma Mengqi, didn’t expect to see you here. I’m going to beat you half to death, come over here!” Sunx Ce shouted excitedly at Ma Chao.

You have no idea what kind of life I’ve been living this past month, being bested by Lyu Bu every day, beaten so badly that I barely want to move in the cabin, only to get beaten again the next day. You have no idea how much stronger I’ve become recently.

“Henghengheng, take this!” Ma Chao and Sunx Ce simultaneously roared in anger, launching attacks at each other to show their strength from the very first move.

[With this move, Meng Qi (Bofu) will definitely be sent flying; he has no idea what kind of life I’ve been living this past month!] Both thought this as they struck, and then both were sent flying.

“This is impossible!” Ma Chao and Sunx Ce both had an incredulous expression, but their attacks on each other didn’t hold back in the slightest.

After a while, the two ended up grappling closely, desperately aiming for each other’s heads, their handsome faces swelling to unimaginable proportions.

Finally, the two rolled down from the northern skies above the city, Sunx Ce desperately pinning Ma Chao to the ground before headbutting him and stumbling to his feet.

“Ha, I finally won…” Sunx Ce supported himself with his left hand on his knee, standing shakily, a swelling on his face showing a certain proud expression. After being beaten by Lyu Bu for a month, Sunx Ce not only improved in strength but also made great progress in resilience.

Lying on the ground, the back of Ma Chao’s head buried in the dirt, he struggled to open his swollen eyes, completely unable to understand how he was defeated.

Previously, regardless of the outcome, the two always lay flat on the ground, utterly spent. But this time, Ma Chao, who trained madly for a month and greatly strengthened his abilities, actually lost to Sunx Bofu. Though Sunx Ce, like him, was equally battered, covered in bruises, Sunx Ce was standing, while he lay on the ground.

“Why…” Ma Chao struggled to speak.

“I’ll never fall again.” Sunx Ce’s swollen face broke into a smile. “The so-called Divine Boundary Break means clarity of will, turning the impossible into the possible. I won’t fall again.”

Upon hearing this, an anger surged in Ma Chao’s heart, anger at his own fallen state. Suddenly, a force exploded within his previously depleted body, and Ma Chao, who thought he couldn’t stand up, leapt suddenly, in Sunx Ce’s incredulous gaze, kicked Sunx Ce in the face, sending him flying several meters.

“Damn it, I’m gonna beat you to death!” Sunx Ce, kicked by Ma Chao, flew out, enraged as he climbed up and charged at Ma Chao, who ignored the cries of his aching body, equally enraged and ready to fight Sunx Ce.

“Zilong, congratulations~” Having been tossed around by Jingfan Horse and ending up in the wrong place, Gan Ning, finally returning from Lake Baikal, yelled towards Ye City from the east.

At this sound, Zhao Yun felt like dying, truly!
