Chapter 1363: Chapter 135: Using Blood as a Guide
"No, Prophet, please don’t die!" Ah Dai held the frail body of Prophet Pu Lin in his arms, tears pouring down. Yan Shi, Yan Li, Si Si, and Xuan Yue all knelt down, and apart from Si Si, tears streamed down everyone’s faces, their hearts filled with sorrow.
Ah Dai shook Pu Lin’s body, crying and shouting, "Prophet, wake up, wake up! Please don’t die!" He turned his head towards Clan Leader Yan Fei and said despondently, "Clan Leader, there must be a way, right? Your Pu Yan tribe is an ancient race, there must still be a way to save the Prophet, right? Even turning him into a Tilu fighter would be good!"
Yan Fei let out a long sigh, wiped the tears from his face, and shook his head in despair, "That’s impossible, child, be strong. The Prophet is not a warrior; he cannot be transformed through witchcraft. Using divination to overextend his life energy multiple times, he no longer has the strength to maintain his life. Child, let him go in peace, Pu Lin wouldn’t want to see you like this."
Ah Dai muttered, "Life energy, life energy? Is there really no way left?"
Yan Fei sighed, "Unless we find a heavenly and earthly treasure that’s filled with immense life energy, and administer it to Pu Lin before his soul has left his body, there might be a sliver of hope. But, having searched the entire continent, I haven’t found one, and now all hope is lost."
Ah Dai’s eyes lit up, and he shouted excitedly, "No, there is hope, there is! A treasure filled with life energy? I am one, I am!" While exclaiming excitedly, he carefully laid Prophet Pu Lin on the bed.
Everyone thought Ah Dai had gone mad with grief. Yan Shi rushed over and grabbed Ah Dai’s arms, choking up, "Brother, don’t do this. We are also heartbroken by the Prophet’s death, let him rest in peace."
Ah Dai struggled, but fearing that he would hurt Yan Shi, he didn’t use much force and said anxiously, "Big brother, let go of me. I really have a way to save the Prophet, hurry and release me! Otherwise, it’ll be too late."
Hearing the certainty in Ah Dai’s voice, even the always indifferent Si Si looked surprised. She watched Ah Dai and asked, "You, do you really have a way to save the teacher?"
Ah Dai nodded firmly; Yan Shi let go, and without any hesitation, Ah Dai pounced beside Pu Lin, murmuring, "Life energy, isn’t it just life energy? No one has stronger life energy than me. Prophet, I must save you." His heart brimmed with unwavering confidence, and he placed one hand on Pu Lin’s chest. The True Qi surged out, instantly enveloping both their bodies completely in white light. Under the vast energy of the True Qi, the recently deceased Pu Lin let out a faint moan, and Ah Dai pulled back a thread of life just as his soul was about to leave the body. Of course, this was far from sufficient.
Blue light radiated; Ah Dai formed a small blue dagger using the Energy Blade, he turned his head to Xuan Yue and said urgently, "Yue Yue, no matter what happens later, don’t touch my body, and don’t let anyone disturb me." Having said that, without any hesitation, he drew the Energy Blade across his own arm. Blood spurted out, and in an instant, a wound appeared on Ah Dai’s wrist under the sharp edge of the Blade.
Xuan Yue’s eyes sparkled, understanding what Ah Dai was going to do. Although it was hard for her to bear, seeing Ah Dai’s resolute belief, she knew she couldn’t stop him, and could only watch him continue.
Ah Dai took a deep breath, mobilized the Golden Body within his Dantian, and under the powerful influence of the True Qi, the unconscious Prophet Pu Lin opened his mouth. Ah Dai brought his wrist to Pu Lin’s lips, letting drop after drop of fresh red blood flow.
Seeing this scene, Yan Shi cried out in shock, "Ah Dai, have you gone mad?"
Xuan Yue pulled Yan Shi back, and said, "Brother Yan Shi, he’s not crazy, don’t interrupt him. This might be the only way to save Prophet Pu Lin. I am sure the Clan Leader’s words awakened Ah Dai. When he was young, he consumed a Fruit of Past Life. The Fruit of Past Life is the powerful life-giving treasure the Clan Leader mentioned. Inside Ah Dai’s blood, naturally, lies the fruit’s power; he intends to use his blood, rich with life energy, to snatch back the Prophet’s life from the Grim Reaper’s hands."
Joy filled everyone’s heart, with even the pale Si Si’s pretty face showing a touch of excitement. Her clear eyes fixed on Ah Dai without blinking; although she was detached about life and death, how happy she would be if her teacher could live!
Yan Fei was so excited that his body trembled slightly. Yan Shi and his brother Yan Li also had hopeful expressions in their eyes. Yan Fei turned to Xuan Yue and said, "Miss, won’t this harm Ah Dai? A person’s blood is limited!"
Xuan Yue looked at Ah Dai with a heart-rending gaze and sighed, "There will definitely be damage, but to what extent, only heaven knows." She was fully aware that human blood is limited; although Prophet Pu Lin held an important place in her heart, Ah Dai was even more significant. She had already secretly decided that if Ah Dai lost a certain amount of blood, she would stop him without hesitation.
