Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 752 - 388: Not Human, and Complex in Composition Lily
"Let's not worry about whether you're going to die for a moment, can you tone down the brightness a bit? It's glaring."
Zhang Ze swiftly withdrew his leg before Lily could smear her snot on it, then pulled out a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and put them on.
"What's going on?" Junior Sister and Li emerged upon hearing the commotion outside.
Seeing Lily, who seemed even brighter than last night, Junior Sister and Li also put on sunglasses.
"I'm... going to die..." Lily continued to weep and wail.
"Save it for later. Let's get inside first. Standing here is like putting on a show."
Seeing more and more people gathering, Zhang Ze picked up Lily with one hand and tossed her into the courtyard.
After closing the courtyard door, Zhang Ze curiously looked at Lily, who had collapsed on the ground, appearing small, pitiful, and helpless.
"What's wrong with you?"
He squatted down, waved his hand through the light around Lily, feeling nothing. The golden light neither felt like Gang Qi nor Demon Qi, leaving him clueless about its origin.
Moreover, looking at Lily's appearance, her breath long and steady, with the nonsense she was spouting, she clearly wasn't at the stage where someone speaks only the truth at death's door.
"Can't you guys see? Haven't you noticed after all these days? Do you not care about me at all?"
Lily pointed at her own glowing face.
"We saw it, you're glowing. So what?" Li, perched on Junior Sister's head, pulled out a stick from somewhere and poked at Lily's pigtails.
"Yeah, what's this got to do with you dying? Also, what magical artifact is making you glow like this?" Zhang Ze asked.
"This isn't a magical artifact! It's me! I'm the one glowing! Me! I'm glowing!" Lily stood up, pointing at her own face.
Zhang Ze & Chen Qin & Li, "Huh?"
Lily, "What 'huh' are you all 'huh-ing' about?"
As sad as it was, since Lily started glowing in the Northern Territory until today, no one truly cared.
Everyone assumed she was up to some new antics again.
And Lily herself, busy helping Xiangxiang and the others move house and generally carefree, hadn't paid much attention to it either.
Other than glowing, her body had no abnormalities, so she assumed it was like a dog shedding its fur seasonally, a normal phenomenon.
Until last night.
After smelling Junior Sister's strong perfume, she suddenly felt an inexplicable drowsiness, the kind that makes you feel like you'll die if you don't sleep.
Yet, when Lily struggled back home, she found she couldn't sleep at all.
Meditation didn't work, banging her head didn't work.
Even after drinking two bowls of Enchanting Soup, it didn't work.
She was in a state where she wanted to move but couldn't, lying in bed with her eyes open, extremely fatigued but unable to rest, suffering from insomnia and anxiety.
Meanwhile, her brightness grew more intense.
When dawn's first light came and the sun started to rise, that drowsiness finally began to fade.
Once the drowsiness dissipated, Lily rushed over here seeking help.
Zhang Ze scratched his head, circling Lily a couple of times, unable to make sense of it.
"How about taking her to see a doctor?" Junior Sister suggested.
Thousand Mechanism Town had expanded again, and due to the settlement of the Six Sects there, it was far more convenient than other cultivator marketplaces.
You could find just about anything you were looking for.
...
In the west of Thousand Mechanism Town, Medicine King Valley had opened a medical hall.
It was called the Martial Medical Hall.
It wasn't named after someone with the surname Wu who opened it, but because it had two floors.
The first floor was used for martial arts practice, and the second for treating and saving people, hence its name.
Major illnesses were treated via the Teleportation Array, minor ones required using the stairs.
When those with minor ailments ascended the stairs, they'd see muscular body cultivators all around.
All they'd hear was the long breathing sound of strenuous effort and the crackling of joints.
Anyone with a major illness, upon opening their eyes, would see granite-like, well-built pectoral muscles, the owner's sunny and fierce grin, along with a handed-out potion bottle and bill.
In short, the Martial Medical Hall, with its unparalleled service and superb medical skills, maintained a record of zero negative reviews, zero medical disputes, and zero unpaid medical bills since its opening.
This was something even the customer-focused Thousand Mechanism Pavilion couldn't achieve.
After all, the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion couldn't very well threaten customers with the Thousand Mechanism Thunder, demanding payment to avoid getting blown up...
Passing through the first-floor's groans of exertion, Zhang Ze and Junior Sister took Lily to the second floor, following the signs to a room at the end of the corridor.
Pushing open the door, they saw an elderly man dressed in the green robe of Medicine King Valley, with an ethereal and celestial demeanor, sitting behind a desk, meditating.
Zhang Ze and Chen Qin weren't very familiar with the people from Medicine King Valley, but judging from the elder's bearing and demeanor, they assumed he was an elder from Medicine King Valley here for duty.
He should be reliable.
As soon as they entered, the elder spoke.
"Sit."
The elder's voice was powerful and confident, instantly putting one at ease. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Lily nervously sat on the chair, but before she could explain her condition, the elder suddenly frowned.
"What's wrong, senior?" Lily quickly asked.
However, the elder remained silent, only frowning and shaking his head.
Finally, the elder sighed deeply and said in a calm tone.
"Go home, eat something good, do whatever you feel like, and stay cheerful."
Zhang Ze, "?"
"No, wait, I'm still a kid, sir, please think of something, I..."
Lily panicked immensely.
Yet the elder continued to shake his head, "In life, there are many inevitabilities, such is fate, everything is predestined, you..."
Implying, clearly, a hopeless verdict, go home and wait for the end.
Lily was so scared she was about to cry.
