He was known as the Living Yama in the eyes of the world.
To dare to fight him for a woman, one had to see if they had the ability.
"It hurts!"
Not long after taking the pill, Chen Jie couldn't help but let out a low groan, biting his lip in unbearable pain, his forehead already covered in sweat.
Feng Ninghe gently pinched his leg, "Does it hurt like this?"
Facing her question, Chen Jie nodded repeatedly, "Yes! It's this!"
The next moment, a smile appeared on his cheek, his eyes brightening, "The fact that I can feel pain means it's a good thing! My legs have been numb for six years, and now they finally have feeling!"
Upon hearing that his legs had feeling, Chen Yi eagerly leaned in, seemingly forgetting the pain of her impending marriage, her beautiful face filled with a smile, "Little brother, what else do you feel in your legs?"
Chen Jie excitedly pointed to his leg, "My legs are burning, as if thousands of ants are gnawing at them!"
Even though the pain was unbearable, his face was filled with a smile.
For the past six years, he had thought of suicide every moment, wishing for death to end it all.
Now that there was hope for recovery, he could not hide his joy.
Looking at his beaming face, Feng Ninghe's mood unconsciously improved slightly, and she explained softly, "I am only helping you repair your severed meridians now. It will take quite some time before you can stand and walk."
Chen Jie waved his head dismissively, "My legs have been paralyzed for a long time. I am already overjoyed that there is hope for recovery. As long as I can recover, I am willing to wait, even if it takes a long time!"
Feng Ninghe removed the silver needles and took out a bottle of pills, handing them over, "Take one pill daily. After you finish the pills, you can try to stand and walk. During this time, you should massage your legs more, especially these few spots."
She specifically pointed to a few acupoints on Chen Jie's legs.
His legs had been paralyzed for six years, and they were already numb and stiff. It would take considerable preparation to walk.
Chen Jie nodded generously and cupped his hands towards her, "Thank you, divine doctor!"
"The food is ready! Everyone, come and eat!"
Chen Niang nimbly brought over the hot food, and rare meat appeared on the table, "The fresh old hen soup is so fragrant and sweet!"
Chen Jie could not get out of bed, so he had to eat in bed.
Chen Yi quickly brought him the hot food.
The table and chairs were made of ordinary wood, and a few pieces of wood had even fallen off the wooden table.
Feng Ninghe quickly sat down, and everyone else followed suit.
Si Jianye lowered his gaze and looked at the dilapidated table and chairs in front of him. After a moment's hesitation, he finally sat down.
Chen Niang eagerly served everyone, saying from time to time, "It's been a long time since my family has had such a feast. Everyone, eat more. I don't know if Xiao Yi will have a chance to come home after she gets married..."
Chen Niang sighed softly, her eyes filled with deep sorrow, "In these years, Xiao Ya is the only one who escaped from the Heavenly God, but she returned like a walking dead, devoid of consciousness. I would rather she had never returned..."
Perhaps because her brother's legs could be treated, Chen Yi's mood greatly improved, and a bright smile appeared on her face, "Mother, if I have the chance to come back, I will definitely visit home."
Chen Niang gently patted Chen Yi's hand, comforting her in a low voice, "Xiao Yi, I've wronged you."
Chen Yi did not want her family to be too sad. She put on a bright smile and said dismissively, "Mother, it's not a hardship. We have so many dishes today, let's eat first. We can talk about these unhappy things another day."
Si Xin Xin's bright eyes were filled with tears, and she reached out her chubby little hand to wipe them away, "This Great Priest is too much! How can he be so unreasonable! He has to break up a good family like this!"
"Exactly!"
Bai Nian Nian couldn't contain her displeasure and quickly chimed in, "If you ask me, you shouldn't get married! I'd like to see if this Great Priest's fist is harder than mine!"
Looking at the indignant crowd, Chen Yi gave a wry smile, "I am not the only girl who has sacrificed for the village. For the peace of Chen Family Village, I am willing."
Bai Nian Nian looked at Feng Ninghe with some urgency, "Master, are we just going to watch her get married? We must think of a way!"
Chen Father and Chen Mother were extremely eager. They were good people.
Since they were good people, they should not suffer such hardship.
What exactly this so-called Heavenly God was, they had not yet figured out...
Sensing Bai Nian Nian's urgency, Feng Ninghe put down her chopsticks and smiled, "The food is very delicious. After eating someone's food and receiving their help, we naturally have to help with this matter."
Although the food in front of them was not as exquisite as that from the Medicine Valley, it had its own unique flavor.
Chen Yi sighed, her beautiful face filled with worry, "Divine Doctor, you should not get involved in this matter. Also, try to avoid wandering on the streets. If you are noticed by the Great Priest..."
She deliberately paused at the end, not finishing her sentence.
However, everyone understood what she meant.
Sensing her worry, Feng Ninghe smiled and said, "Chen Yi, I have an idea that might work. In seven days, I will send someone to marry in your place. You just need to hide at home and not show yourself."
"Marry in my place?"
Chen Yi was slightly stunned, but after a moment, she realized, "The Great Priest has already seen my face. If we change people at the last minute, it might anger the Great Priest and the Heavenly God."
Feng Ninghe slowly raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Zhao, "Xiao Zhao, show them your ability."
Xiao Zhao understood what she meant and transformed instantly into Chen Yi's appearance.
The two identical faces shocked everyone.
Chen Yi was so startled that the chopsticks in her hand rolled to the ground, and she looked at the face in front of her, which was exactly like her own, in disbelief, "What... what is going on?"
Xiao Zhao swayed his body, then quickly turned back into a child's appearance, and confidently patted his chest, "It's my ability. I guarantee no one will see any abnormality."
The ancient Qilin possessed the ability to transform, and the duration was long.
He had even tricked Si Jianye before.
Even the King of Hell in Xiyou Continent had not noticed anything unusual, let alone ordinary people.
"He is my spirit beast and can transform into anyone's appearance," Feng Ninghe explained simply. "As long as he doesn't change back, no one will be able to detect any abnormality."
Even so, Chen Yi's anxiety did not diminish, "Even if we can avoid being discovered, this journey is extremely dangerous. If anything happens because of it, I will only blame myself more."
Xiao Zhao blinked his blue eyes, and a dismissive smile appeared on his small face, "This is no challenge for me. Even if I were in prison, I could transform into a butterfly and fly away!"
His confident words also put everyone's minds at ease.
If anything were to happen, Xiao Zhao had the ability to protect himself; he could escape if he couldn't win.
