Chapter 394: Saving
Meiyi left from Seth’s arms and moved towards Donghai, but her body suddenly stopped midway, as if there was a barrier separating them.
In reality, there was actually an illusory barrier right inside her heart, that stopped her from moving forward. She watched those two Elders crying, while they tried to treat their son and she couldn’t bring herself to get closer.
Her hands trembled and she couldn’t help but think that she was not part of that family. If he were to wake up, would her father still remember her after all this time had passed? Those two Elders... Weren’t they, her grandparents? Would they accept her?
Seth could feel that Meiyi longed for a complete family and that it may be because she only had her mother, who had practically raised her alone. But noticing the condition of the man who was supposed to be her father, he couldn’t hold a grudge against him.
As for Meiyi, he felt she had zero grudges against them and was actually, expecting to meet them. Her heart was clear and she ignored the fact that she has lived most of her life, apart from that part of her family.
If it were him, Seth concluded that he would certainly blame them for abandoning him, but for some reason, his mother’s image came to his mind and he decided to not think about it anymore.
Meiyi started backing away, but as her eyes met with his, Seth knew she had a request.
.....
“Please, bring my father out of here...”
Seth was able to feel her sorrow and he also realized that she had already accepted that man, as her father. Her eyes told him that she wanted to save Donghai and meet with him, like daughter and father. But his condition and the place they were in, was not favorable for that to happen.
“Sigh...” Seth sigh and relented. He couldn’t maintain his neutral stance towards them, when Meiyi felt not even an ounce of hatred within her.
He patted her head and said: “Let me deal with this.”
Meiyi’s tears were still staining her face, but she was able to smile after he said those words. Seth was her hope and her light, and whenever he complied with something, he would do it without fail.
Seth approached Donghai, who was lying down in between Dongmei and Grand Elder Chuanli and he didn’t bother with them or what they were doing. His energy directly affected the three of them, separating the family so he could treat the injured man.
Chuanli and Dongmei felt an irresistible force sealing their energy veins once again and moving them aside, as a youth approached their son.
At that moment, the shock inside their hearts surpassed the shock they felt, when the Sanctuary Master exposed Donghai’s face for everyone to see. They were certain that Seth would do something to him, but they could not move to interfere.
“Please! He is my son! My Donghai!” Dongmei started begging, as her eyes captured Seth’s hand moving towards her son.
The Grand Elder gritted his teeth and used every single fibber of his body, exerting his maximum strength, so he could kneel where he was. He didn’t bother with pride and face, before a situation like that.
“I beg you! Don’t kill my son!”
However, their hearts sped up, after realizing nothing they said affected the man in front of them.
Seth casually stretched his right arm and touched Donghai’s chest. His fingers were shinning with a green light, that made everyone think he was about to rip Donghai’s body with his wind elemental abilities, when in reality, he was activating the Evergreen Essence.
With it, he swiftly realized Meiyi’s father condition and he couldn’t help but think, that it was a miracle that he was still living. There were multiple bones fractured, his internal organs had shifted position and there were a few places, where internal hemorrhage was happening. His energy veins had been shattered with an external attack and the energy inside of his body was slowly depleting.
However, what truly preoccupied him, was that he felt Donghai had suffered soul injuries. Even if he healed his entire body, the man wouldn’t wake up if he couldn’t heal his soul.
Realizing that healing his soul would be something impossible to do in the situation they were in, Seth decided on stabilizing his body condition first. Actually, he realized he didn’t really know techniques to heal the soul of an individual and would have to rely on Lexi for that.
Evergreen energy poured out of his palm, drenching the inside of Donghai’s body. Seth concentrated on mending his energy veins together first, since it would better help the patient, passively circulate energy inside the body, fastening the whole treatment.
But since he couldn’t waste too much time inside that hall, he did not completely heal Donghai, but sought to stabilize his condition first, by concentrating on critical spots.
Everyone silently watched, as the unknown cultivator started treating the prisoner and even after a few minutes had passed, none of the elders dared to do or say anything. The massacre that had happened a few minutes before, was still fresh in their heads, inducing fear in their minds. Most of them couldn’t help but get anxious, waiting for the Sanctuary Master to come back and resolve everything.
Seths Evergreen Essence brought the healing powers of nature on top of Donghai’s wounds and they rapidly started to heal. In a few minutes, Grand Elder Chuanli was able to perceive the miracle that was happening with his naked eyes, as his son’s skin tone became heathier and heathier.
The old man couldn’t help but look towards the unknown man and carve the image of his face, deep inside his brain. He made a note to treat Seth as his benefactor for life, if what he was doing was real.
Chuanli had tried to stabilize his own son’s condition with his Profound Mana Realm cultivation, just to end up feeling useless inside, since it did nothing to help Donghai. But the man in front of him, in just a few minutes, had practically revived his son’s bodily functions.
