Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 403 - 202 Sending a Letter_2

"Su, the Chief of the Escort, there’s no hurry to treat this man. You should rest for now."

Su Mo let out a gentle breath, retracted his palm, and smiled: "Thank you for your concern, my Inner Strength is substantial, it doesn’t bother me. However, the severity of this person’s internal injuries is truly unexpected."

"That is true."

Little Situ nodded, it was unclear if he referred to Su Mo’s Inner Strength or the man’s injures.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "The internal injuries of this man are indeed unprecedented in my life, even the elders of my clan have never mentioned anyone surviving such grievous harm.

"However, I see that there is a strand of Inner Strength entrenched within his heart meridian, tightly protecting his life. That is why he can cling to life.

"Also, his will to live is extremely strong."

"Oh? How can you tell?"

Su Mo was taken aback. With the man in such a state, how could his will to live be discerned?

"As practitioners of martial arts, we nourish our bodies with Inner Strength, even if we fall into a deathlike state, the Inner Strength will naturally respond to stimuli.

"Yet, when you and I channeled Inner Strength into this man’s body, he put up no resistance.

"If he had even a trace of despair, it would not be as smooth as it is now; from this, one can see that he truly wishes to live, knowing that you and I are saving his life, thus he imposes no resistance, allowing us to do as we please."

Little Situ spoke confidently, no longer the food-loving glutton he was.

The brilliance in his eyes, too, was something Su Mo rarely saw.

He looked at Little Situ and then subconsciously glanced at his legs, gently shaking his head:

"Your legs... Is there still a chance for them to be healed?"

"...Difficult to say."

Little Situ didn’t avoid the question and replied with a smile: "Ever since I can remember, my legs have been like this. The elders of the clan always told me that if I found the right opportunity in the future, I might be able to walk again.

"But as for where that opportunity lies... nobody knows.

"They always say, the opportunity is within this world, just not within these three feet of the Xuanhu Pavilion.

"So, this journey to..."

He paused, glanced at Su Mo, and gently shook his head: "This tour of the world, therefore, has led me out.

"After coming out, I had no specific purpose, wandering aimlessly, not seeking that opportunity, just to see if my own fortune indeed lies within this world."

His words suddenly seemed somewhat contradictory.

However, Su Mo just smiled: "The reason why it’s called opportunity is precisely because it comes with fate, not through active pursuit."

"Exactly."

Little Situ also smiled: "Having had little interaction with Lord Su, today’s conversation has been unusually pleasant.

"Since coming out from Xuanhu Pavilion and looking at the vast world, I find every place wonderful, no place without its fascination.

"Among them, Lord Su is the most extraordinary."

"Oh?"

Su Mo paused: "Why am I the most? Little Situ, please enlighten me."

"I won’t tell you now, I’ll tell you later."

Little Situ simply shook his head.

Su Mo raised an eyebrow, this man actually liked to keep people guessing.

"You’ve come this far with your Qi Flow, you don’t need to rest?"

Little Situ saw that Su Mo had no trace of fatigue in his conversation and couldn’t help but be amazed.

Su Mo shook his head, but Little Situ was unaware.

The Twelve grade Golden Bell Shield was not ordinary; once it achieves Great Success, one could go without eating or sleeping for 500 days.

Although Su Mo had not tested this himself, his body and Inner Strength were at their peak and showed no signs of exhaustion.

As he was thinking, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door, and Wei Ziyi entered with a wooden tray:

"Have something to eat."

She was holding a wild fruit, nibbling on it.

"Where’d you get this?"

Su Mo asked.

"Picked in the mountains, a thank you gift from those kids."

Wei Ziyi spoke with a smile: "Though they’re quite sour, they taste rather sweet to me."

Little Situ glanced at it and then sniffed: "Eat less, the fruit isn’t ripe yet, eating too much... can cause laxative effects."

"..."

Wei Ziyi suddenly felt that the fruit in her hand wasn’t as sweet as she thought.

After thinking for a while, she put down the tray: "How much longer do you need?"

"One night of Qi Flow should be enough to open up his meridians throughout the body."

Su Mo glanced at Little Situ: "But who knows if clearing his meridians will be enough to heal him?"

"It’s just the first step."

Little Situ shook his head: "To expel the Foreign True Qi from his body, then there are other injuries to address. External injuries are easy to treat, but damage to the Inner Palace and meridians can only be slowly rehabilitated. He must undergo daily acupuncture, take medicine, and combine it with his Inner Strength, to be treated from inside out, in order to recover as quickly as possible.

"After dispelling the Foreign True Qi from his body, I will administer acupuncture, stimulate his Inner Strength, aid the effectiveness of the medicine, and he should mostly likely awaken within ten days."

"..."

Su Mo turned to look at Wei Ziyi.

Wei Ziyi raised her eyebrows: "Who exactly did this to him?"

Little Situ shook his head: "It’s hard to discern from the injuries who exactly did this, he has many wounds, but judging from the location and angle, the person who acted doesn’t seem to have high martial arts skill.

"The internal injuries, however, are severe, so I suspect this person was initially wounded by someone with Inner Strength, thereafter escaping.

"After that, he encountered some opponents with swords, who wanted to take advantage of his serious injuries to end his life.

"Through twists and turns, he was then rescued by the Master."
