Chapter 2330 — The Wounds Are Healed
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
The two had already heard Wei Zhao's voice, but with injuries upon them they could not rise to greet him. Old Master Pi, the better off of the two, sat up in bed at once when he heard Wei Zhao arrive. "Mr. Lin, you're back!"
"Old Master Pi, lie down. We're all one family now—no need for such formality." Wei Zhao waved a hand. "Let me take a look at you first."
"No hurry about me—it's mainly young Wu. His injuries are worse than mine. Would you look at him first?" Old Master Pi waved his hand. He was a Heaven-rank expert, and his injuries were not as severe as Wu Chengtian's, so naturally he would not have Wei Zhao treat him first.
"Very well." Wei Zhao did not decline. In fact, one glance was enough for him to tell whose injuries were the more serious.
Wei Zhao reached out and laid his hand on Wu Chengtian's meridians, then began to circulate the second layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art. Wu Chengtian did not resist; there was nothing he needed to do during the treatment—only to lie still and enjoy the comfort of his wounds mending.
This was not the first time Wu Chengtian had received healing from Wei Zhao, and he knew the routine well, without a trace of worry. Last time his injuries had been worse than these—he had been all but a cripple—and he had recovered all the same, so Wu Chengtian felt his full recovery was no question at all.
Pi Zhifeng and Old Master Pi, however, were seeing Wei Zhao heal someone for the first time. They watched as he seemed to do it with the greatest of ease—merely placing his hand over Wu Chengtian's pulse—and Wu Chengtian's complexion began to improve at a rate visible to the naked eye!
Wu Chengtian had lain abed for many days, but injuries of this kind did not mend simply from lying long; apart from a little better spirits, his condition had been unchanged. Yet now, as if by magic, his face went from pale to ruddy!
Soon it was no different from a normal man's, and this wondrous turn left Pi Zhifeng and Old Master Pi clicking their tongues in amazement!
The two exchanged a glance, and each saw in the other's eyes boundless astonishment and shock. They had assumed Wei Zhao's healing consisted of herbs and acupuncture and the like—that even if it could cure, there could be no result in the short term. But now it was plainly nothing of the sort. Wei Zhao's healing was as good as the touch of a hand that banishes illness outright!
In fact, the time Wei Zhao spent healing Wu Chengtian was not short at all, but to Pi Zhifeng and Old Master Pi it seemed utterly brief. When Wu Chengtian sprang up from the sickbed and appeared before them hale and vigorous, the two were utterly overturned in all their previous knowledge of martial arts.
"Boss, is he... healed?" Pi Zhifeng stared at Wu Chengtian, who seemed to have nothing wrong with him at all, and asked cautiously, scarcely able to believe it.
"Healed. Now it's your grandfather's turn. Where's your brother? You didn't bring him along too?" Wei Zhao asked.
"Uh... healed already, that fast?" Pi Zhifeng's mind was truly slow to catch up. "My brother's studying business and hotel management. Old Master Wu Gonggao, Wu Chengtian's grandfather, is keeping him company over there, and they haven't come yet. I never figured it could be cured this quickly... Shall I call them over now?"
