In the bedchamber, wrapped in Luo Ruying's gentle spiritual energy, Luo Hongye fell into a short but peaceful sleep.
However, it wasn't long before her delicate brows furrowed slightly, as if she had a nightmare. Her bright, intelligent eyes suddenly opened.
"What's wrong, YeYe? Does it hurt again?"
Luo Ruying gently stroked Hongye's chest, her face full of worry.
"Mmm… with Mother here, YeYe doesn't hurt anymore."
Hongye shook her little head obediently, then asked in a soft, childlike voice,
"Mother, is YeYe causing trouble for you and Daddy…?"
Luo Ruying froze for a moment, then her hand tenderly brushed Hongye's tiny face. She said softly,
"Of course not, little fool…
Having YeYe is the happiest and most joyful thing for Daddy and Mother.
YeYe must never say that again, understand?"
"Yes, YeYe understands…"
The little girl obediently lay back on the bed.
After a brief silence, she turned her head and asked,
"Mother, where is Daddy?
Is Daddy not going to sleep with YeYe and Mother tonight?"
"Daddy went to get some treats for YeYe…
He'll be back soon to sleep with YeYe~"
Luo Ruying forced a smile but couldn't hide the anxious hope in her heart, praying that Ning Yechen would return soon and not bring any bad news.
At that moment, Qi Yuan hurried in after hearing the news.
"Sister Luo, how's little YeYe?"
Upon entering the room, Qi Yuan's expression was full of worry.
She genuinely cared for Luo Hongye, treating her almost like a little sister.
Hearing that Hongye had suddenly triggered a strange phenomenon at Nanli Academy and was in life-threatening danger, Qi Yuan was extremely anxious.
"The situation… is somewhat stable for now…"
Luo Ruying said with a slightly somber expression.
The meaning was clear: it was stable, but the danger to Hongye's life still lingered.
Qi Yuan's heart ached as she moved closer to the bed to look at Hongye.
"Little YeYe…"
"Qi Sister~"
Hongye's small face was pale and weak, yet she still forced a cute smile.
This made Qi Yuan feel even more heartbroken.
At only two years old, Hongye was already so obedient and sensible—how could such a tiny body endure so much pain?
"Sister Luo, I've already gathered all the famous doctors in the city!
I'll have them examine little YeYe!"
Qi Yuan turned to Luo Ruying.
Luo Ruying nodded gratefully.
"Thank you, Miss Qi…"
Any chance was worth trying.
"Quickly, doctors, come in!"
With Luo Ruying's permission, Qi Yuan immediately invited the dozen or so doctors waiting outside into the room.
One by one, the doctors took Hongye's pulse, while Luo Ruying and Qi Yuan anxiously watched.
"No matter what medicine you need, the Qi family can provide it!
Just tell us what's required!"
The doctors nodded and began their examination.
Yet, every single one of them frowned, their faces grave, and slowly shook their heads after feeling her pulse.
Some even bluntly said that Hongye's illness involved both spiritual essences in one body, conflicting and disturbing her meridians and dantian, with no cure available.
They feared that even if Hongye never practiced cultivation, she might live less than twenty years!
At these words, Luo Ruying's heart sank, her legs nearly giving out…
Qi Yuan was furious, ready to throw all the incompetent doctors out.
"Pooh! Incompetent fools!"
"Don't listen to them, Sister Luo. They're just quacks spouting nonsense!"
Qi Yuan helped Luo Ruying, comforting her.
For a moment, she regretted bringing these so-called doctors.
Then she remembered Ning Yechen was a physician—a divine healer who saved lives. She hurriedly asked,
"Right, Sister Luo, where's Ning Da-ge?
Has he returned?"
"He went out to prepare some medicine, temporarily away," Luo Ruying replied weakly.
Now, the only hope rested on Ning Yechen…
Her husband…
Luo Ruying couldn't help silently praying and calling out in her heart.
For the first time, she felt herself relying so completely on a man…
As if in response to her silent plea, Ning Yechen's voice sounded from outside:
"Wife, I've returned."
His graceful figure entered the room, offering Luo Ruying a gentle, reassuring smile.
For some reason, seeing that smile instantly calmed her tense heart.
"Hubby…"
"Ning Da-ge!"
"Did you find the required medicine? Should I call someone to help?"
Qi Yuan asked joyfully.
Luo Ruying's eyes were full of anticipation as she instinctively clenched her hands, her heart pounding…
Ning Yechen lightly nodded.
Both Luo Ruying and Qi Yuan relaxed, faces brightening.
"Wife, Miss Qi, please wait outside for now.
I'll prepare some medicine for the child," Ning Yechen said.
Qi Yuan might not recognize the "Immortal Spirit Tree Sap" and "Demonic Spirit Crystals," but Luo Ruying certainly did!
These items couldn't be shown to her.
Although still a little uneasy, Luo Ruying obediently followed Qi Yuan outside.
Now only Ning Yechen and Hongye remained in the room.
He sat beside the bed, affectionately caressing Hongye's small face.
Hongye's tiny hands grasped Ning Yechen's palms, her big eyes staring up innocently. She suddenly asked,
"Daddy, will YeYe have to leave you and Mommy…?"
She had been secretly listening to the doctors' conversation.
Though very young, she seemed to understand.
Ning Yechen's heart trembled. He immediately scooped Hongye into his arms, gently patting her back.
"Why would that happen?
With Daddy here, our little YeYe won't go anywhere!
Daddy will grow up with YeYe and play all sorts of fun games~"
"Really…?"
"YeYe won't leave Mommy and Daddy?"
Hongye blinked her big eyes, her heart already damp with tears.
"Of course not!
Daddy can't bear to part with our adorable, sensible YeYe~"
Ning Yechen affectionately pinched her soft cheeks and took out the Immortal Spirit Tree Sap and Demonic Spirit Crystals.
He poured the sap onto the crystals, raising a pale flame in his palm to refine and fuse them.
In just a moment, the pure Immortal Sap merged into the Demonic Crystal, which gradually began to dissolve.
The golden sap intertwined with the dark purple demon essence, blending together until they became a single dark-golden, sparkling liquid—the Immortal-Demonic Elixir.
