7 Curing Xiao Ying (2)

Xiao Lie was dumbstruck seeing the scene in front of him. He not only consulted all the doctors in the floating cloud city, he even brought doctors from new moon city spending large sum of money. Unfortunately all of them said same thing. Xiao Ying's spinal cord is not curable as broken pieces of vertebrae have damaged the spinal cord beyond repair. If what Xiao Che is saying turns out true, there is indeed hope. After all how can he disbelieve what he saw with his own eyes. He held his breath without knowing. After some he asked with great difficulty,

-What happened after that, little Che?

-After what, grandfather?

-After she imparted you with these knowledge.

-Ohh, I kowtowed to her to complete the ceremony, she on the other hand said it is unnecessary and gave me this sword and this box of golden needles as a gift to recognize me as her disciple. She said me to practice this art diligently and said if I were to meet her expectation she would come back when I turn 16 and take me with her to see the world. Saying that she left... flying.

He takes out a box of golden needles for acupuncture purposes from the bush and showed it to Xiao Lie, though it is bought from the system shop, he had to lie. Xiao Lie was shaking with excitement. Is it because Xiao Che imaginary master is a power house of at least emperor profound realm or because of his son could be cured, or may be both, it is unknown. He asked,

-Little Che, can you start the treatment now?

-Well, I have to inspect father's condition first.

-Okay then, let's go right away.

So, those two returned back to their court yard and went to where Xiao Ying is risiding after storing the Yamato in a safe of Xiao Lie's personal armory. [Author: What happened to the goat?!]

Xiao Ying, even though he didn't loose his cultivation, looked very feeble. His arms and legs have atrophied due to not being put into frequent use. His cultivation dropped from mid stage of true profound realm to early stage of true profound realm. His wife, Xiao Yue, was beside him serving him breakfast and recounting current affairs. At such moment, Xiao Lie entered the room with Xiao Che. Xiao Ying was a little surprised. Xiao Che and Xiao Lie mostly visited him during afternoon break. It is very unusual for them to visit at morning as it is their cultivation time. He asked in his feeble tone,

-Father, little Che, what brings you here in the morning?

Xiao Lie put Xiao Che on bed who was in his embrace initially and said,

-Ha ha, my son. Heaven has blessed us finally. Little Che have found a great doctor as his master and learned healing art from her. Little Che might able to cure you now.

Hearing that both Xiao Yue and Xiao Ying had a confused expression. But before they could ask anything, Xiao Lie stopped them and said,

-Questions can come later, first let little Che do his job. Little Che, if you may...

Under confused gaze of Xiao Ying and Xiao Yue, Xiao Che started to examine Xiao Ying. His hands and legs are not properly healed and backbone is a total mess. 3 thoracic vertebra totally shattered and bone splinters damaged spinal cord beyond saving by normal means. After examination is over, he said,

-Father's condition is indeed serious but nothing that can't be solved. Here, bring these medicines to me, I shall start treatment promptly.

Saying that he wrote a list of medicines and gave them to Xiao Lie. Xiao Lie ordered a servant to gather them immediately. After they are gathered after half an hour, Xiao Che started his treatment.

After whole day of ordeal, he manage to salvage the situation. Using his profound energy, he had to pull out those bone splinters and using acupuncture speed up the healing process. The reason it took so long is he had pull out each splinter separately using his profound strength, otherwise they may cause complication. Then using special medicine he molted the bones very fast they reshaped them to their original shape. He also used a little bit of light profound strength to hasten the repair of the nerves. It was risky but not hard enough to cause failure for a experience doctor like him. He healed the hand's and leg's bones and stimulated the muscles so that they regain their vigor from their atrophied condition faster. That said it was a little painful for Xiao Ying, but as a person who didn't feel his legs for 3 years, it was good news instead as he could feel his legs again after his spinal cord was healed. At last he said,

-Okay that should be it. Father should rest for a week and continue the medicine. After that he should be back to normal again.

Seeing that Xiao Ying could feel his leg again, both Xiao Lie and Xiao Yue was very ecstatic. Xiao Yue was actually seen more happy than she was suppose to be. It was as if she is the one that is cured. She hugged Xiao Che for a long time and kissed him a lot on the chick as tears crept out of her eyes. Xiao Lie also cried. When Xiao Yue released Xiao Che, Xiao Lie held him by the shoulder and ask,

-My good grandson... tell me what you want. As long as it is within my capability I shall give it you.

-What are you saying grandfather? Curing father is my duty, I am feeling bad that I couldn't do this sooner.

-No, what you did absolutely calls for reward. Don't hold back and ask. We are all family here.

-Okay there is actually two things I want. First I want a heavy sword custom made for me.

-Ohhh, it can be arranged, no problem. But why heavy sword?

-Let's just say it goes with my style, Yamato is good for precision but it lacks destructive power. I want to master both.

-Okay, what about your other wish?

-I want a flying profound beast as my contracted beast.

-This..... Okay I shall try my best to procure one for you.

It is not that Xiao Lie doesn't want to give one, it is just too rare to find a tamable flying profound beast, and when there is one those big clans promptly snatch them away. Xiao Lie continued,

-Okay, my son was injured and those old fogies treat me as my days are over and ridiculed me to no end. When word of little Che's talent went out things subsided a little, but they still shot me scornful eyes. I shall show them who is the real boss now. Ha ha ha. My son has been cured and this calls for celebration. 15 days from now, our Xiao clan shall celebrate this event. Ha ha ha...

This has to be said that due to Xiao Ying's injury Xiao Lie has to heavyhearted and didn't call for celebration on both Xiao Che's birthday and Xiao Lingxi's birthday. Now he plans to compensate for all that with this single event. So, after 15 days, Xiao Ying is now fully recovered and the celebration day arrived.
