Chapter 1317: Failure!

Chapter 1316 – Failure!

“Yes, but I can’t give you the original.” Lingshan had her principles, too- her relationship with Lin Yi was good, but this was something about principles. She couldn’t change those.

“I don’t need the original,” Lin Yi only wanted to look at his medical notes- he didn’t care if it was the original copy.

After all that, Lin Yi didn’t tell the girls yet- after all, they weren’t sure. As Old Lin said, the bigger the hope, the bigger the disappointment.

What he feared now was that it would be really hard to look for the fruit even if its details were on the notes.

And so, these days, he started researching that map Bojia gave him. He really put a lot of effort into this mission this time- there could be no missteps, and he needed to succeed!

The night three days later, he was researching the map in his room when a cry came from outside- Yushu rushed in, panicking as she burst into his room. “Shield Bro, hurry- Xiaoxiao fainted, save her!”

“Oh?” Lin Yi jumped up and put away the map, charging out with her, “How did she faint?”

“I don’t know, she said that she was very cold and wanted to take a hot shower, we didn’t think much of it, but it’d been an hour since she was in there, and so we checked, and found her on the floor…” Yushu said in one breath.

Lin Yi nodded- he had already expected this to happen. Xiaoxiao’s sickness would act up these few days, or tomorrow or the day after that, but still, his heart felt heavy.

“Right, Xiaoxiao is naked, so you can do whatever you want to her, Shield Bro!” Yushu said all of a sudden.

“Ha…” Lin Yi smiled bitterly, not saying anything. Shu may look dumb and everything, but Lin Yi understood that she saw how he looked- she just wanted to make him feel lighter.

He entered with quick steps, seeing Xiaoxiao lying in the tub. Tang Yun and Mengyao were standing there, worried, but didn’t dare to touch Xiaoxiao.

Lin Yi didn’t say anything, hugging her up and going to the bedroom beside and putting her on the bed. He bit his arm and let the blood drip down on her body…

“Yi, you need to be prepared- this doesn’t look good!” Jiao Yazi’s voice sounded.

“Oh? Elder Jiao, what’s wrong?” Lin Yi’s heart thumped as he heard that worried voice.

“This time is much more serious than what I’ve anticipated- the yang aura had already invaded every corner of her body- it’s so strong that even I can feel it from here.” Elder Jiao said.

Lin Yi’s heart dropped. “Then this time…”

“Try. But don’t force yourself- don’t’ die of blood loss before you manage to save her…” Elder Jiao sighed.

Lin Yi nodded his head, letting his blood continue to drip down on her body…

Time went by, and this time, Xiaxiao didn’t turn for the better. She only got paler and paler!

The blood in the human body was limited- after losing fifteen percent of your blood, you’d go into shock. Losing thirty percent would put your life in danger!

But Lin Yi’s constitution was stronger than the average man, and he lost more than 50 percent already! A normal man would’ve been dead already!

“Yi, that’s enough- you might get into big trouble if you continue bleeding! Even with the Art of Dragon Mastery, you might just die from too much blood loss!” Elder Jiao reminded.

Lin Yi only shook his head- but Xiaoxiao didn’t look healed at all! He couldn’t stop!

This was the last chance- if he gave up now, it would mean that Xiaoxiao would never wake again…

And so, he channeled his Art of Dragon Mastery, letting his body get repaired, creating more blood…

The time it took for blood production didn’t match the speed of the blood consumption- even with the supplement of energy repairing him, even Lin Yi’s strong body wasn’t holding up. He felt dizzy…

He had to hold on! He had to! Lin Yi kept reminding himself that he couldn’t let go- this was the last hope, and if Xiaoxiao couldn’t wake up now, there was no point to go graverobbing. There was no point in looking at notes and find some fruit of the Fire Spirit!

He couldn’t give up!

Tang Yun, Mengyao, and Yushu all looked at Lin Yi, whose face was getting paler. They were worried, but they knew that they couldn’t interrupt him right now- they could only hope that it would work.

“Yi, are you going to continue? Have you ever considered that you might die?” Elder Jaio was getting worried- Lin Yi was killing himself!

“Elder Jiao, there’s no need to warn me- I know what I’m doing! Even if it threatens my life, I have to go on- I have no other choice!” Lin Yi said to his heart. “Elder Jiao, there are no backups- if I give up now, then even if I find the fruit, it’d be useless!”

Elder Jiao sighed loudly and closed his mouth.

Lin Yi’s vision was getting blurry, and Xiaoxaio’s face wasn’t clear to him anymore. He couldn’t hold on… Could it be that all of this was fate? After all his struggling and resistance- he couldn’t get past this day? This was it?

He felt himself getting weaker and weaker as if hallucinations started coming out. He seemed to see Xiaoxiao’s smile, that sorrowful singing…

Remember when I said proudly. That I’ve come to this world before, don’t tell me what eternity is, I’ll go out in the brightest of…

Lin Yi fainted on the floor.

Even a practitioner couldn’t handle this amount of blood loss- he was forced into the jade space!

Realizing that he was still alive, Lin Yi sighed as he looked at the blank-faced Elder Jiao. Both were silent. He had failed…
