Chapter 61: Her Cinnabar Field Has Been Rendered Useless
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After hearing Su Ji’s diagnosis, Feng Xiuyu opened her eyes wide, and her face twisted with rage.
“Mother, it’s that despicable girl! She’s the one who rendered my cinnabar field useless! It’s her! Kill her now! Go!” When she’d been fighting Feng Tianlan, she’d felt her cinnabar field burst. She was sure that the despicable girl must have done something to her. Ruthless girl!
Feng Xiang was shocked. He took a step back, then asked in an agitated and trembling voice, “Doctor Su, can you check again? Did you make a mistake?”
Yu’er was a genius, how could her cinnabar field now be considered useless? It cannot be true! It cannot be true! It simply cannot be, Feng Xiang thought.
Si Rong was so shocked that he could not even speak. If this prodigy’s cinnabar field was ruined, her meridian channels were weak and thin, and she was unable to train anymore, didn’t that make her a useless person? Did that mean that he, the great Third Prince, was about to marry a piece of trash? If, besides the Fengs support, there was no other benefit in marrying Feng Xiuyu, should he still marry her?
It angered Su Ji that Feng Xiang did not accept his diagnosis. He immediately showed his displeasure on his face but tried to remain calm as he said, “Unfortunately, I am not skilled enough to heal her. I ask that the Feng Clan Head finds a more powerful doctor to look at her.”
He was the best alchemist in all of South Peace City, but Feng Xiang still doubted him, which made him angry. Feng Xiang saw that Su Ji was getting ready to leave, so he quickly went to him and said in an apologetic voice, “No, please don’t misunderstand. You know that Yu’er is a genius. Plus, her abilities rank higher than Feng Tianlan’s. So, even if she’s hurt, she can’t be so severely injured that her cinnabar field is ruined, her meridian channels are weak and thin, which means she’s now…she’s a…”
He couldn’t bring himself to say, ‘she’s a useless person now.’ He felt that, if he said it, then it meant that he believed it. Su Ji started to feel bad for them as he heard Feng Xiuyu screaming and wailing in rage, while Feng Xiang looked at him with hope in his eyes. Their daughter’s current situation resembled falling from heaven into hell. It was a hefty blow, indeed, so he sympathized with them.
“Father, go and kill that girl for me! She hates me, and that’s why she destroyed my cinnabar field! Father! Kill her! Kill that sl*t!” Feng Xiuyu continued screaming uncontrollably, unable to accept the truth that she had become useless.
Su Ji frowned and said, “Third Miss ate some illegal medicine, and that’s what caused your cinnabar field to implode and your meridian channels to become weak and thin. This was not caused by external forces.”
He’d been the doctor on standby during the battle between Feng Tianlan and Feng Xiuyu. So, he’d seen what had happened and knew that the damage had not been caused by an external force.
“No, I’m sure it’s her! I’m sure it’s that sl*t!” Feng Xiuyu continued to scream furiously. I can’t become a useless person. I can’t accept this. I can’t—she thought to herself. She kept screaming with bloodshot eyes: “Even before I ate that pill, I could already feel my cinnabar field bursting, so I’m sure that sl*t did something!”
Even if her cinnabar field had imploded because she’d taken illegal medicine, it was still Feng Tianlan’s fault. If Feng Tianlan had just let herself be killed, she would not have needed to take the prohibited medicine, and her cinnabar field would not have imploded. So, this was all Feng Tianlan’s fault! Feng Tianlan was the one who’d turned her into a useless person. She was not going to let Feng Tianlan off the hook!
After listening to what she said, Su Ji pondered for a while before asking, “What has Third Miss eaten recently? After looking at your cinnabar field, I feel like there might be some other reason.”
He was unable to pinpoint exactly what was wrong. Yes, illegal medicine could have very well caused it, but it could have also been something else. He was unable to provide confirmation.
“She took a Marrow Cleansing Pill, a Spirit Boosting Pill, and a…”
Feng Xiang was too embarrassed to say that she had also eaten an illegal substance, which the Battle Ring strictly prohibited.
