Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
Chapter 644: Healing Bai Yao
Xi Wei looked at the patient on the sickbed, his deep blue eyes filled with compassion.
It was obvious that Bai Yao was critically ill.
To the point where even he, the King of Winter, had to personally administer treatment.
“Nervous?”
He gently stroked Bai Yao’s small head.
Bai Yao bit her red lips and nodded, then shook her head. Her pretty face was flushed, seemingly from nervousness and fear.
“If it were you, I, I, I wouldn’t be nervous…”
Her mouth was still as stubborn as ever.
Xi Wei did not smile or expose Bai Yao’s defiance.
The treatment for demi-human summoners like Bai Yao was very complicated and had to start with her two ferrets.
The connection between these two ferrets and Bai Yao was very close, and the poison was transmitted between them. Therefore, preliminary treatment of the ferrets could greatly alleviate the pain of the subsequent surgery.
Xi Wei reached out and squeezed a small ferret. It was chewy and bouncy, indeed one of Bai Yao’s favorite summon beasts.
It was pure white and soft to the touch.
Its grade was obviously not low.
As he kneaded it, the ferret couldn’t help but emit soft whimpering sounds.
To achieve the highest treatment effect,
Xi Wei began to cover the small ferret with his Qi and the Source of the Wilds, performing acupressure massage on several points for about ten minutes. The ferret’s nose slowly perked up, and its complexion became rosy again, indicating a very good treatment effect.
Seeing this, Bai Yao was naturally extremely nervous. She obviously also cared about her summon beasts, and her body couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
“The condition is good. I’m proceeding to the next step.”
Xi Wei informed Bai Yao.
Bai Yao nodded gently.
Nervousness was unavoidable, but now she trusted Xi Wei one hundred percent.
Next, Xi Wei would mainly treat Bai Yao’s second summoned beast, the Peach Blossom Fairy.
He possessed light-attribute Angel Divinity, which was intensely warm. For the Peach Blossom Fairy, these large hands were the most advanced treatment equipment.
This was not Xi Wei’s first time treating a summon beast, and he was intimately familiar with the areas where these summon beasts often had problems.
As he skillfully and repeatedly pressed the acupoints of the demonic beast, the Peach Blossom Fairy also vomited out the toxins accumulated after being poisoned. At first, it was only a small amount, but later, large quantities began to spew out.
Its demon core was shaped like a rose-red pearl, and half of it had already been expelled with the vomit.
After the treatment, the entire Peach Blossom Fairy was exhausted, and half of its demon core was exposed at its mouth, unable to retract for the moment. However, the toxins within its body had been mostly cleared.
“The situation is not bad. We can proceed to the final step.”
Xi Wei quickly cleaned the poison off his hands, then turned Bai Yao over on the sickbed. Bai Yao had a pair of large wings on her back, and lying on her back could easily cause poor blood circulation, affecting the treatment effect.
As the three summon beasts were healed, Bai Yao also consumed a significant amount of mental energy.
She was now too weak to move.
The toxins accumulated in her body were actually the most troublesome and required focused treatment.
However, now that the toxins in her summon beasts had been cleared, there was no need to worry about poison transmission during the subsequent treatment.
But to be safe, Xi Wei would definitely provide auxiliary treatment to the small ferret and the Peach Blossom Fairy while treating Bai Yao, just in case.
“Relax your body, don’t tense up.”
Xi Wei pressed down on Bai Yao’s waist twice. The Source of the Wilds covered in his palm soothed Bai Yao’s nervous emotions. Once Bai Yao’s body was completely relaxed, Xi Wei released his lifebound summon beast – the Lava Kun (mutated from Red Dragon Blood).
This Lava Kun, having been modified by Red Dragon Blood, had undergone drastic changes in all its attributes. Both the duration of its skills and their cooldown periods were vastly different from ordinary Lava Kun.
The fire poison it spat out could devour the toxins within Bai Yao’s body without harming her.
Ultimately, most of the fire poison would be automatically expelled, and the small amount remaining in the lesion would be harmless.
“It’s coming!”
Xi Wei roared, his gaze fixed.
Then, he commanded the mutated Lava Kun to forcefully burrow into Bai Yao’s lesion.
This process was quite painful. Frowning, Bai Yao let out a groan, her pretty face turning pale. She bit her red lips and looked pitifully at Xi Wei out of the corner of her eye.
Xi Wei immediately began to provide auxiliary treatment to Bai Yao.
Both the Source of the Wilds and Angel Divinity were mobilized simultaneously to alleviate Bai Yao’s pain.
The mutated Lava Kun also spat out a small amount of fire poison beforehand. This fire poison had a decent anesthetic effect, designed to gradually make the person being attacked lose their ability to resist.
Xi Wei had once been invincible on the summoner battlefield relying on this characteristic of the mutated Lava Kun.
Under the anesthetic effect of the fire poison, Bai Yao’s frown gradually relaxed, and her entire body slowly entered a dazed state.
Xi Wei knew that the paralyzing fire poison had taken effect.
He then stopped holding back and directly commanded the mutated Lava Kun to charge wildly within Bai Yao’s lesion, frantically devouring the deadly toxins.
This was an extremely fierce tug-of-war.
The mutated Lava Kun continuously spewed fire poison, but the toxins in Bai Yao’s lesion also continuously emerged. The two seemed to be at a stalemate.
However, Bai Yao’s rank was far inferior to Xi Wei’s. The strength within Xi Wei was as vast as the ocean, continuously pouring into the mutated Lava Kun. Soon, the toxins were completely defeated by the fire poison.
Now is the time!
Xi Wei seized the opportunity and quickly commanded the mutated Lava Kun to launch a full-scale assault on the toxins.
The fire dragon-like giant Kun wreaked havoc within the lesion, then raised its head and let out a roar. A scarlet firelight glowed in its ferocious maw, with lava and flames accumulating to the extreme.
Bai Yao seemed to sense that it had reached a critical moment.
She slightly opened her eyes. Her pale pretty face was covered in sweat, and her hands were gripping the bedsheet tightly. Her entire body tensed, and her eyes didn’t blink as she watched Xi Wei controlling the demonic beast.
“Roar—!”
Following the mutated Lava Kun’s deafening roar, scorching Dragon Breath poured out like a volcanic eruption.
The intense flames and fire poison instantly annihilated all remaining toxins within Bai Yao’s lesion.
Simultaneously, under the paralytic effect of the fire poison, Bai Yao’s body relaxed, and she fell into a deep sleep.
Xi Wei commanded the mutated Lava Kun to emerge from the lesion. Perhaps it hadn’t eaten enough meat recently, as the Lava Kun seemed a bit unsatisfied.
After retracting the Lava Kun, he used his Divinity to regulate Bai Yao’s body again, confirming that the toxins in her body had been completely cleared.
The healing effect of Angel Divinity was very good, and coupled with Bai Yao’s extraordinary physique – as evident from her summon beasts (such exquisite summon beasts would only contract with summoners with good physiques like Bai Yao) – she woke up in no time.
However, she had just finished receiving treatment and was still somewhat weak. So, Xi Wei gave Bai Yao two bags of Dragon Blood Black Milk, a specialty of Winter City, to supplement her nutrition.
This was to consolidate the treatment and provide post-treatment care.
It could effectively prevent the recurrence of toxins.
