Chapter 348 Huge Opportunity
Chapter 348 Huge Opportunity
The carriage was still speeding along the official road, but the atmosphere inside the carriage became solemn and full of hope because of Bai Fan's rescue.
Soon, Su Ran and Chu Qiu were called back into the carriage by the little koi.
Everyone was quietly waiting for the moment when Shen Li woke up.
At this moment, within Shen Li's seemingly weak body, an earth-shaking change was quietly taking place due to the integration of Bai Fan's inner elixir.
The originally quiet meridians seemed to be awakened by a mysterious and powerful force, and began to slowly flow with streams of spiritual energy.
Her body seemed to have its own consciousness and slowly began her journey of cultivation.
Shen Li, who had tried to cultivate spiritual energy into his body but failed in the past, has now gradually broken through the shackles with the help of this magical inner elixir and slowly stepped into the first level of Qi training.
Spiritual energy circulated in her meridians, constantly nourishing her damaged body, repairing the broken veins, and making her breath gradually become steady and powerful.
Outside the carriage, the wheels rolled, raising dust all the way; inside the carriage, Shen Li was undergoing a complete transformation, and the wheel of her destiny had quietly turned in a completely new direction without her noticing. All of this would slowly be revealed after she woke up.
On the carriage, the three people's eyes were as if attracted by a magnet, tightly locked on Shen Li, their eyes full of concern and anxiety.
Shen Li's face, which was originally as pale as paper, gradually became faintly rosy, like a peach blossom quietly blooming in spring, gradually regaining its vitality.
Xuanfeng Sanren was filled with confusion. Bai Fan had already tried to treat Shen Li, but why was she still unconscious? However, seeing that her complexion was gradually improving, he thought that she must be fine. This made him secretly relieved, but his frown did not completely relax.
Su Ran and Chu Qiu also stared at Shen Li intently. Seeing that her complexion had improved, they nodded slightly, and their hearts slowly settled down. They looked at each other and saw a hint of relief in each other's eyes.
However, what they didn't notice was that miraculous changes were quietly taking place on Shen Li's wrist.
On the jade bracelet that Bai Fan transformed into, a small lightning mark flickered faintly, echoing the lightning mark on Shen Li's wrist, just like the twinkling twinkling stars in the night sky. The light flickered, and it was a bit like a signal light with a low battery, eagerly absorbing energy.
As the lightning mark flashed, the jade bracelet on Shen Li's wrist, which was originally dull and looked like a dusty pearl, slowly lit up with a warm luster, as if it was injected with new vitality, and gradually regained its former agility and mystery.
Halfway through the journey, the carriage was still moving forward. Shen Li's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
She only felt her whole body being gently shaken by the bumps of the carriage. For a moment, her mind was in chaos and she couldn't remember how she got into this carriage.
The memories of the past were like broken puzzle pieces, pieced together bit by bit in her mind.
In an instant, Shen Li sat up abruptly, her beautiful eyes quickly looking around the carriage, with some confusion and vigilance still in her eyes.
Almost at the same moment, Su Ran and Chu Qiu shouted in surprise and joy from inside the carriage: "Miss Li'er, you're finally awake!"
The voice was filled with the relief of surviving the disaster and the joy of recovering what was lost. It trembled slightly and echoed in the small carriage.
Xuanfeng Sanren also raised the corners of his mouth, outlining a faint smile. His eyes looked at Shen Li gently and gratifiedly through the layers of air, as if silently expressing his peace of mind.
Shen Li was full of doubts, like a bewildered monk, frowning slightly, and asked, "Su Ran, I remember you and Nangong Qi fighting, and I think he hit me. How come we are in this carriage now?"
When Su Ran heard this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by deep guilt and self-blame.
He slowly lowered his head, remained silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The punch from Nangong Qi hit you, and the injury was extremely serious. Your condition is extremely critical. When Senior Xuanfeng Sanren saw this, he was furious and immediately took us away from the palace."
Chu Qiu sobbed softly and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Miss, you don't know that at that time, the imperial doctors in the Xiqi Palace all asserted that you might not live for more than a few days..." As she spoke, her eyes became redder, and tears welled up in her eyes, almost bursting out.
At this time, Xuanfeng Sanren couldn't help but said angrily: "Master handed over the memorials and pills you prepared to Nangong Zhaolie. We have no reason to stay there anymore! Master took you away on his own initiative! This carriage was also arranged by Nangong Zhaolie!" After speaking, he turned his head to the side angrily, as if as long as he thought of that scene, the anger in his heart would burn again, and he was unwilling to say another word.
Shen Li calmed down and carefully felt her physical condition. Strangely, she didn't feel any signs of injury, and there was no pain anywhere on her body. On the contrary, she felt that her limbs were full of vigorous vitality, as if she had endless strength.
She asked suspiciously, "Then how did I survive? I felt fine!"
Xuanfeng Sanren's expression tightened, and he said quickly: "Of course it was my master who used a unique method! This is a long story, and I will tell you slowly in the future!" As he spoke, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he was hiding something.
Shen Li's eyes flashed, and she keenly caught the subtle flicker in Xuanfeng Sanren's words. She instantly understood what he meant, knowing that there must be a hidden secret in this matter, and now was not the time to speak in front of Su Ran and Chu Qiu.
So, she rolled her smart eyes, changed the subject lightly, and said in a nonchalant manner: "That's good! After all this trouble, I really miss Daddy and the others!" As she spoke, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a seemingly natural smile, but behind that smile, there was a trace of imperceptible worry.
At the same time, Shen Li pondered in her heart: When did Nangong Qi's obsession become so deep?
That crazy look, as if he was possessed by an evil spirit and fell into madness. Thinking of this, she felt more and more that it was not suitable to stay in Xiqi for long, and it would be better to leave as soon as possible.
Besides, the memorial and the pills had already been presented to the emperor. She believed that as long as Nangong Zhaolie carefully read the memorial, he would understand most of its profound meaning. Whether she explained it in person or not would not make much difference. Thinking of this, Shen Li secretly clenched her fists, and a plan was already in her mind.
