"Little girl, if I say I can save you, then I can save you." Su Chen smiled, "However, the person who extended your life placed a seal on you. That seal is quite formidable. If I want to save you, I need to break it. I can break it, but it's quite complicated. It would be best if the person who extended your life could show up and help me to break it."

Su Chen continued, "You can give it a try. Anyway, even if it doesn't succeed, it won't harm you, right?"

"This..." Zhao Lingxi was silent.

"Not willing? Then forget it." Seeing Zhao Lingxi's silence, Su Chen lost interest as well.

Initially, he just thought Zhao Lingxi was a nice little girl, so pure and pretty, and she had cared for him earlier, so saving her wouldn't be much trouble for him.

But now it seems Zhao Lingxi doesn't trust him, so why bother being overly concerned? He and Zhao Lingxi share no special relationship; it's her life, so if she doesn't want it, then so be it.

"No, no, it's not that I'm unwilling. It's my aunt..." Zhao Lingxi hurriedly explained, "It's my aunt, she has a bad temper. If... If she shows up, and you can't treat me, I'm afraid she might get angry and do something to you..."

That seal was indeed made by her aunt to help extend her life.

Su Chen needed her aunt to come here.

Once her aunt arrives, given her temper, she might very well act against Su Chen, and Zhao Lingxi didn't want that to happen, it mustn't be allowed.

"Huh?" Su Chen was a bit surprised. This girl is worried about him? What a caring and affectionate girl.

"Alright then, can you get your aunt to show up now?" Su Chen asked.

Why must it be now? Because afterward, he has to head to Dragon Carp Sea with Shen Yiyao.

Dragon Carp Sea is too dangerous, almost certain death. Whether he can come out alive from Dragon Carp Sea is still uncertain. It's safer to help Zhao Lingxi get treated first. As for Zhao Lingxi's aunt being able to enter Qing Jian Tomb, he had no doubts. From the seal within Zhao Lingxi, he could guess that her aunt had immensely strong power, a top-level old monster of Great Luo Heaven. Forcibly entering Qing Jian Tomb would certainly be possible.

"But..." Zhao Lingxi wanted to say more, but Su Chen interrupted her directly, "I've decided to save you. Stop nagging, contact your aunt."

Zhao Lingxi and Su Chen exchanged glances.

For a long time.

Zhao Lingxi couldn't win against Su Chen.

"I'll contact my aunt now." Zhao Lingxi bit her lip, and then a Sound Transmission Talisman appeared in her hand.

Beside Su Chen, Shen Yiyao whispered, "This little girl has quite a background! It's actually the top-level Grand Tao Sound Transmission Talisman? Only such a talisman can send messages out of this Qing Jian Tomb!"

At the same moment.

Shen Yiyao was already quietly talking with her own aunt.

Though Shen Yiyao's voice wasn't loud, the 'aunt' on the other side of the Sound Transmission Talisman wasn't quiet.

"Nonsense, Lingxi, don't be deceived by him. Your aunt will find a way for you; she will definitely keep you alive."

"Stay away from that boy. What kind of expert is he? What's this about the Fixed Character Eternal Domain? Not even twenty-eight years old? Lingxi, your aunt orders you to stay away from him now!"

"Lingxi, it's not that your aunt doesn't trust you, but you don't understand your situation. No one can cure you, no one, your aunt is certain."

"That boy must not have good intentions! Can he save you? Is he stronger than your aunt and the Pavilion Master? Can he be stronger than Li Lao? Lingxi, can't you stop being naive? Stop being so simple-minded?"

"If he can cure you, your aunt will even bow to him, but that's impossible. Lingxi, why are you so foolish?"

......

Su Chen and Shen Yiyao heard it all very clearly.

Su Chen was full of black lines.

He was being utterly looked down upon.

Completely looked down upon.

And Zhao Lingxi was anxious and angry, "Aunt, even if you don't come, Su... Su Chen will still help me; he said he could forcibly break your seal."

"What? Damn! Lingxi! I'm coming to you right now. Before your aunt arrives, do not act rashly!!! Do you hear me!? Damn kid? How dare you deceive Little Lingxi like this, you're asking for it!!! I'll definitely see if you can really cure Lingxi? Boy, just you wait!"

The 'aunt' on the other end roared, both anxious and furious.

Then, the Sound Transmission Talisman shattered.

Even the corners of Su Chen's mouth twitched, completely speechless. Is this 'aunt' brain-dead or something? Did she take some explosives?

Fortunately, he found Zhao Lingxi quite pleasant, a kind, beautiful, innocent, and pure girl. If it weren't for that, given this 'aunt's' attitude, he would have wanted to cut ties with her right then.

Of course, another reason is that for Su Chen, saving Zhao Lingxi is not just about saving her life and activating her special physique, not just giving her an immense gift, but also gaining some benefits for himself.

The thing that is almost fatal to Zhao Lingxi is quite beneficial for Su Chen, as it could foster some growth for his Divine Mansion. Nowadays, things that can help his Divine Mansion grow are extremely rare, and Su Chen didn't want to miss the chance. Why not go for a win-win situation?

"Su Chen, can you really cure her?" Shen Yiyao glanced at Zhao Lingxi and asked softly.

"I can." Su Chen nodded without hesitation.

"Alright, then. Hmm, once you've cured this little girl, I want to see what that 'aunt' of hers will say? Such big talk!" Shen Yiyao couldn't wait to see Su Chen smack that 'aunt' in the face by curing Zhao Lingxi. Let's see where she can put that face of hers? Would she still dare to brag?

Not far away, Zhao Lingxi was feeling a bit embarrassed, worried, and guilty, and even didn't dare to look at Su Chen anymore, "Su Chen, my aunt's temper... is like that. Later on, I will... I will... I will definitely protect you, and not let my aunt hurt you."

Then, Zhao Lingxi added, "Su Chen, no matter the result, thank you."

To be honest, she didn't hold much hope for Su Chen being able to cure her.

It wasn't that she didn't have confidence in Su Chen, but rather the whole Xuanshi Divine Pavilion, be it the Pavilion Master or the Supreme Pavilion Master, none could cure her. She had experienced countless failures. There wasn't a shred of confidence left.

To know Xuanshi Divine Pavilion is one of the Four Great Divine Pavilions. If even they can't do it, what martial cultivator in Great Luo Heaven could? Which power could accomplish it? It was simply an unsolvable problem.

Moreover, her aunt wasn't resigned to it, having spent over a hundred years searching all over Great Luo Heaven, consulting numerous divine doctors. The answer was always the same—incurable.

So, in fact, Zhao Lingxi had long given up hope.

The biggest reason she agreed to let Su Chen treat her was that she wanted to spend a bit more time around him since Su Chen's treatment required time. She wanted more memories with Su Chen.
