Si Hongxi was seen twitching all over. It was obvious how much pain he was suffering!
"What's wrong with him? Is he okay?" Mu Qing watched Si Hongxi's reaction, extremely nervous.
Bai Chen just shook his head. "He's okay. He's just having a rejection reaction. But it won't hurt him. Don't worry... He had such a big reaction just from a bit of spiritual energy. If you were to directly use your heart to treat him, only one more person would die!"
Hearing Bai Chen's words, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. At this moment, Wan Ruo said, "Can I give it a try?"
What? Hearing Wan Ruo say this, Mu Qing looked at her gratefully. "What? Miss Ruo Ruo, you..."
Bai Chen's reaction was surprisingly calm. She was so willing to give up her life for this man so easily. I even went to so much trouble to pull her back from the gates of hell!
Just thinking about it makes me so angry!
"Even if you're willing, it's useless. Your heart can't save his life. There's no need to try!" Bai Chen replied firmly and coldly.
What? "Why?" Wan Ruo was puzzled. Was it because of the inner core?
With a solemn expression, she and Mu Qing both looked at Bai Chen in surprise.
"Do you know why? Your heart has already merged with my inner core. My inner core has extremely powerful spiritual energy. Ordinary people simply can't bear it! Unless you want him to die!" Bai Chen explained coldly.
Hearing this, Wan Ruo took a deep breath. As expected. "If that's the case, then what should we do?"
Just then, a voice came from behind Wan Ruo. "Let me give it a try!"
Qin Manman slowly walked out and said seriously.
"Manman..." Wan Ruo looked at her, not knowing what to say. Among the people present now, Qin Manman was the last hope.
"Have you really made up your mind?" Bai Chen asked again for confirmation.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Qin Manman.
Qin Manman just smiled slightly and nodded.
Bai Chen tested again, collecting a wisp of spiritual energy from Qin Manman and putting it on Si Hongxi's heart.
After a while, what happened left everyone present stunned.
Black blood and rotten flesh began to flow out from Si Hongxi's festered wound!
"What's going on? Is he okay?" Qin Manman thought his injury had worsened and asked nervously.
Bai Chen replied coldly, "I'm afraid... he might be saved!"
What? What did that mean? Did it mean...
"Your heart is the best choice to treat him!" Bai Chen looked at Qin Manman seriously and said.
"Why does his injury look like it's getting worse?" Mu Qing beside him asked curiously.
Bai Chen looked at Si Hongxi's wound and replied indifferently, "This is to expel the toxins from his body. After the poisonous blood and rotten flesh in his body are expelled, new tender flesh will start to grow. This shows that it's effective for his recovery!"
"Really? That's great!" Qin Manman said happily.
She was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears. She sat on the edge of the bed, took Si Hongxi's hand and placed it on her face. "I know you don't like me. I'm really sorry for always bothering you. This might be the last thing I can do for you!"
Qin Manman's final farewell made everyone present tearful. Although she had done something wrong before, they still couldn't bear to see this scene.
Then Qin Manman whispered in his ear, "I'm sorry. I love you!"
Si Hongxi seemed to have heard it, and a tear even flowed from the corner of his eye!
She stood up and bowed deeply to the people around her. "Sorry to trouble you all." Then she looked at Wan Ruo with a smile. "I've never told you this before. Although I'm not the kind of person who likes to be sentimental, thank you, sister!"
At this moment, Wan Ruo was already sobbing. She was reluctant to part with Qin Manman, but she also respected her decision. Maybe she was happy to sacrifice her life for the person she loved?
Seeing Wan Ruo's sad expression, Qin Manman smiled and comforted her, "It's okay. Isn't this also our fate? I'm just protecting him in a different way. Don't be sad for me!"
After saying that, she hugged Wan Ruo affectionately. "Take good care of yourself. You'll live a better life without me around, right?"
Hearing this, Wan Ruo kept shaking her head, and tears couldn't stop falling.
"I'm ready. Let's start!" Qin Manman said to Bai Chen with a smile.
Then Bai Chen asked the others to leave, leaving only Qin Manman and Si Hongxi in the room.
Everyone outside was waiting anxiously, while inside the room, Qin Manman and Si Hongxi were lying side by side on the bed. Qin Manman was a bit nervous and tightly held Si Hongxi's hand.
"I'll cast a spell to numb you. Although you won't feel pain, you'll die unconsciously after I take out your heart. Are you ready?" Bai Chen said gently to Qin Manman.
Qin Manman nodded firmly with a determined look in her eyes.
"Then I'll start!"
Qin Manman replied with a smile, "Start! I'm ready!" Then she looked at Si Hongxi beside her, full of affection, ready to sacrifice herself.
Bai Chen started to cast the spell. He rotated his palm around Qin Manman's head, and gradually she closed her eyes and became motionless.
Just then, Bai Chen's hand instantly turned into a sharp claw, and he quickly took out Qin Manman's heart. The speed was so fast that the fresh heart was still beating in his hand, and even the blood didn't have time to flow out.
Bai Chen quickly applied his magic power to repair Qin Manman's heart onto Si Hongxi's. At this moment, Si Hongxi's heart was growing at a visible speed. In a short while, his heart was completely repaired.
And beside him, at the moment when Qin Manman's heart was removed, she left a happy tear and then lost her breath.
With the blessing of Bai Chen's spiritual energy, Si Hongxi's wound also quickly recovered. Under his torn clothes was fair and clean skin without a single scar.
At this moment, Bai Chen looked at Qin Manman beside him. He couldn't bear to see her in such a mess, so he used his magic power to close her wound and clothes.
From the outside, she looked intact, but inside her complete body, there was no longer a complete heart!
At this moment, Bai Chen waved his hand and the door opened. The people outside rushed in immediately when they saw this.
"Burry her!" Bai Chen said gently to Wan Ruo.
Wan Ruo looked at Qin Manman lying on the bed, her face pale and bloodless. Hearing Bai Chen's words, tears welled up in her eyes. She tried hard to hold back her tears and replied, "Okay!"
"What about our prince? How is he?" Mu Qing asked worriedly at this moment.
Although he was also very grateful for Miss Manman's kindness, the dead couldn't be brought back to life. He didn't want her to die in vain, so he was eager to know Si Hongxi's current situation.
"It depends on himself when he will wake up. It could be tonight, or tomorrow morning, or maybe even a few days. It's all possible!" Bai Chen said indifferently.
Mu Qing frowned tightly. "I'll guard him every step of the way until he wakes up!"
"Do as you like. I'll leave this to you for now. We'll leave first." After saying that, Bai Chen picked up Wan Ruo and walked out.
Wan Ruo didn't have time to react. "Hey, you... put me down." Wan Ruo said softly to Bai Chen. Seeing that he ignored her, she then turned to Mu Qing and said, "Mu Qing, inform us immediately if there's any situation."
Bai Chen carried Wan Ruo out. Wan Ruo struggled hard to break free from Bai Chen and asked, "What are you doing? Put me down!"
At this moment, Bai Chen coughed weakly because he had used a lot of spiritual energy just now.
Seeing this, Wan Ruo immediately became nervous. "You... what's wrong with you?"
Bai Chen waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I just used too much spiritual energy. I'm fine!"
"Then put me down. I can walk by myself!" Wan Ruo said with a worried look on her face.
