Chapter 76: Saving Someone to the Very End?

Guo Jing looked at Huang Rong before him with great apology and shame. He had truly tried his best, but there was no reaction at all. He felt as if his heart had died; if not for the need to guard Xiangyang and its people, he might really have felt that dying would be better.

“I’m sorry, Ronger, I…” Guo Jing didn’t dare to look into Huang Rong’s eyes.

“It’s alright, Brother Jing. We’ll find another way. I’ll go consult Sister Ning again; they’re bound to have a solution.” Although she had used everything she learned from Ning Zhongze, she still couldn’t pique Guo Jing’s interest.

However, she didn’t give up. Even if Guo Jing had given up, she wouldn’t.

When Guo Jing first came back and told her about this, she truly felt as if the sky had collapsed.

She was only thirty years old, an age where she especially needed a man’s care. If Guo Jing was no longer capable, she couldn’t imagine what her future life would be like.

Fortunately, Guo Jing also mentioned he had sought out Yu Xian. Yu Xian had given a suggestion, telling her to find Ning Zhongze, who would tell her what to do.

So, without a second thought, she went to consult Ning Zhongze. Ning Zhongze gave her many methods, mainly hoping to provide stimulation through some sensory triggers.

Although it was very shameful, for the sake of her future happy life, she followed them all one by one. Though it made Guo Jing stare blankly, but…

“Alright.” Guo Jing didn’t want to discourage her further and could only nod in response.

Seeing Guo Jing agree, Huang Rong knew he hadn’t given up on himself, and half of her heart was at ease. The other half was because a cure hadn’t been found.

“I’ll go find Sister Ning again later. If that still doesn’t work, I’ll look for a famous doctor. Brother Jing, you can’t leave Xiangyang for too long, but I can. Even if I have to search the length and breadth of the country, I will definitely bring back a famous doctor.” Huang Rong looked at Guo Jing firmly, trying to give him strength so he wouldn’t give up easily.

“Ronger, I’ve truly made things hard for you.” Guo Jing pulled Huang Rong into his arms.

He had indeed secretly given up.

Because over the past few days, Ronger had shown him all sorts of feminine charms. In the past, he would have succumbed long ago, but now…

He didn’t want to hold Huang Rong back. He had already written a Letter of Divorce and hidden it in the sachet she carried with her.

Since he couldn’t give Huang Rong a future, he would dedicate the rest of his life to Xiangyang, guarding it well.

He would let Huang Rong go to find someone more suitable for her, someone who could give her happiness.

Yu Xian was quite good. Although Yu Xian already had several wives, he had seen how Yu Xian treated them, and they all seemed very happy.

The most obvious was the eldest, Ning Zhongze; every time he saw her, she was glowing and full of excitement.

He had never seen such an expression on Huang Rong’s face, which meant he hadn’t given her enough happiness.

Huang Rong being with him was more about accommodating and following him. And his focus wasn’t entirely on the family, but more on defending Xiangyang.

He already felt he owed Huang Rong… now he couldn’t hold her back any longer.

For two months, Yu Xian continuously taught Ning Zhongze how to increase a man’s interest through flirtation, and Ning Zhongze then taught Huang Rong.

Yu Xian felt he was at his wit’s end, but there still seemed to be no effect on Guo Jing’s side.

He really was powerless to help.

Ning Zhongze was five months pregnant, and her condition had stabilized. Yu Xian’s Check-in Plan was launched again, but surprisingly, none of the three women wanted to go out with him.

Little Dragon Girl: “Sister Ning’s belly is getting bigger and bigger; I want to stay and take care of the baby.”

In truth, Little Dragon Girl had always been quiet. While she did want to be by Yu Xian’s side, she now preferred staying home because she had Ning Zhongze and Li Mochou for company.

Li Mochou used the excuse that she had made progress with the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra and needed to keep up the effort.

In reality, as Yu Xian’s woman now, her past reputation was not the best, and being by Yu Xian’s side might cause him unnecessary trouble.

It was better to wait peacefully at home for Yu Xian’s return and help him take care of Ning Zhongze.

“I heard Sister Rong went out to find a divine doctor for Great Hero Guo,” Ning Zhongze suddenly remarked.

“Hmm?” Yu Xian looked at Ning Zhongze in confusion.

What did his Heroine Ning mean by this?

“With Great Hero Guo’s situation, it’s likely beyond hope.” Ning Zhongze didn’t finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear.

Even with divine medicines like the Xiao Huan Dan and the Great Returning Pill, and divine techniques like the Muscle, Ning Zhongze felt there was no hope.

Instead of letting Huang Rong waste the rest of her life, she might as well follow her own naughty brother.

Her naughty brother would be saving her to the very end, wouldn’t he?

Yu Xian still looked at Ning Zhongze in confusion, even reaching out to feel her forehead.

He remembered that not long ago, his Heroine Ning had warned him not to have designs on Huang Rong. Why was she now encouraging him to take the initiative?

“Save her to the very end.” A smile curled on Ning Zhongze’s lips.

Save her to the very end?

Is that how you save someone?

“Sister Ning, are you serious?” Yu Xian felt Ning Zhongze was testing him.

“What do you think?” Ning Zhongze gave Yu Xian a playful glare.

“There are many famous doctors in the Jianghu, right? Are you comfortable letting Sister Rong search alone?” Ning Zhongze added.

Yu Xian curled his lip. He was actually a bit reluctant, but why was there a faint expectation in his heart?

“Fine, go then. My two sisters are here to keep me company, so you don’t need to worry.” How could Ning Zhongze not see through what was in Yu Xian’s heart?

“I have my own places to go.” Yu Xian tried to explain. The place he needed to check in at wasn’t where Huang Rong was going; they weren’t on the same path!

“Why say so much? Don’t I know you? Go on, go.” Ning Zhongze looked at Yu Xian with disdain and shooed him away.

Yu Xian:…

He didn’t even know which divine doctor Huang Rong was looking for. There were quite a few divine doctors in this Comprehensive Martial World, right?

He figured if he ran into her, he would protect Huang Rong along the way. If not, he would just find a place to check in, obtain more Martial Arts, and improve his strength.

Although his current strength wasn’t bad, he wasn’t the best in the world yet and still needed to work hard.

He’d take it one step at a time. He didn’t dare go too far; ancient transportation was too backward. Traveling to one place could take ten days or half a month, and he wanted to be back before the child was born. So, he couldn’t stay away for too long.

He didn’t want to be away when his first child was born.

Speaking of which, who would Huang Rong go to first?

The Killer Doctor Ping Yizhi? Yama’s Foe Xue Muhua? Wondrous Physician Second Master Mei? Medicine King Sun Simiao? Or someone else?

Yu Xian had learned from Ning Zhongze that there were many famous doctors in this world, and their names were familiar to him. He just didn’t know which one Huang Rong was looking for.

Should he go ask Guo Jing? But wouldn’t that be too obvious?

Forget it, better to complete his Check-in Task first.

The most likely people Huang Rong would seek out were Yama’s Foe Xue Muhua and Wondrous Physician Second Master Mei, as they were the easiest to find.
