Legend of Ling Tian

Ling Tian expressed his agreement, before asking, ”Since that’s the case, I believe you have an idea of how much she will need to consume?”

Li Xue, on the contrary, shook her head, ”How can there be a prescribed amount? I can only suggest that we start off with the smallest dosage possible, then slowly test out the greatest amount her meridians can take at any one time. When the pure Yang energy fully dissipates, then we’ll stop the dosage and immediately begin the purging. Oh, there’s still another point, Sister BingYan’s conception and governing meridians are not opened yet, and thus only can absorb the liquid portion of the inner pellet. If the medicinal strength is too vigorous, she will not be able to take it.”

Li Xue glanced at Yu BingYan with a smile as she continued, ”If Sister BingYan is ready, then we can start. Now that we have this inner pellet, our chances of success will greatly increase, and I believe it will be easy to dispel this foul disease for good!”

Yu BingYan’s face immediately turned white, and she backed off two steps like a frightened deer, tightly hugging onto Ling Tian’s right arm as her body trembled.

Divine Black Negative Meridians, this was the foul disease that had afflicted Yu BingYan for her entire life. It was also regarded as the number one incurable disease, and Yu BingYan had long given up hope to cure it. However, right now, knowing that there was a cure for it, Yu BingYan suddenly became frightened.

If it was before she met Ling Tian, then she would not be afraid, but rather joyous at such a scenario. Curing it was a good thing, and if it could not be removed, it could be considered as a sort of release to her. Life and death did not matter to her that much during that point.

However, after she accepted Ling Tian into her heart, Yu BingYan grew afraid. She was not afraid of dying but instead was afraid of leaving Ling Tian, of knowing that he would live his life in misery. She was even more afraid of losing the happiness she had just obtained. Even if it was just to enjoy it for one month more, one day, or even a minute, to use this happiness to gamble against her treatment was not something she was willing to do, even if the chance of success was infinitely close to 100%!

She blankly stared at Ling Tian, tears beginning to brim in her eyes. But she refused to blink, as she felt that the moment she blinked, she would see less of Ling Tian. Even if she were to die, she wanted to see more of Ling Tian!

Tears started to silently flow.

”Silly lass, why are you even crying?” Ling Tian gently wiped off the tears in her eyes as he spoke in a gentle tone, ”Regarding this treatment, I’ve already prepared this for more than a year. Relax, nothing will go wrong! Believe in me! For a longer period of happiness, we have to overcome this illness of yours together.”

Yu BingYan continued to stare dumbly at him, her voice trembling as she spoke, ”Tian’ge, I’m afraid… I’m afraid that I’ll never get to see you again. How about pushing this back for a few more days? Let me accompany you a few more days, even a day more would be good.”

Ling Tian’s heart twisted, yet he forced out a laugh, as though he was completely relaxed as he replied, ”What are you scared of?! Yan’er, after today, we’ll have a lifetime to spend with each other, growing older and being actual husband and wife. Didn’t you already agree to that? You still promised to bear me children, don’t tell me you aren’t willing anymore?”

Tears continued to drip down from Yu BingYan’s face, as she choked in between sobs, ”I want… I really want to bear children for you, to grow old together, that’s my greatest wish. But I’m afraid… I’m really afraid I don’t have this fortune… what if…”

”There are no ifs!” Ling Tian’s voice suddenly took on a stern tone. ”Yan’er, you’re mine, Ling Tian’s woman. I need you to properly live on, do you understand? Live on for me! Believe me, and also believe yourself. We will pass through this hurdle!”

Yu BingYan nodded, sprinkling the ground full of tears. ”Tian’ge, so long as you promise me something, we can begin right away.”

”What is it?”

”You have to promise me that if, IF, if I don’t make it…. and die, you have…. to quickly forget about me. I don’t wish to have you feel sad over me, and even more than that I do not wish for you to miss me, to hurt yourself. You, as well as Sister Ling Chen and Li Xue must live on well without me, okay?” Yu BingYan’s lips trembled, and the tears flowed down unceasingly now.
