Urban Martial Saint

”These were used before I gave him the Recreation Pill. Besides, these are external medicines, just for stopping bleeding,” Bai Li Xi said. ”The internal medicines are different.”

”What should we do now?” Ye Qing scratched his head and asked, ”Can the Recreation Pill quickly heal his heart?”

”I’m sorry to tell you that it’s impossible!” Bai Li Xi sighed and said, ”This is also the most troubling problem for me. Although the Recreation Pill saved his life, it can’t heal the wound on his heart. In other words, although his life is saved, he has basically become a cripple and can’t withstand any external stimulation. Otherwise, he could die at any moment!”

”What?” Ye Qing frowned again and asked, ”Then... why didn’t you heal his wound first and then give him the Recreation Pill?”

”Are you stupid?” Bai Li Xi glared at Ye Qing and said, ”His heart is injured. Do you think it’s any other kind of injury? A heart injury is life-threatening every minute. If I didn’t hurry to give him the Recreation Pill, he could have died at any moment. How could I have had time to help heal his wound?”

”So what should he do now?” Ye Qing asked urgently, ”Is he going to lie in bed like this, waiting for his heart’s wound to heal slowly?”

Bai Li Xi shook his head and said, ”You’re overthinking.”

Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief. If that’s the case, then there should still be a way for Liu Mubai to recover quickly. But just as he was about to ask about this method, Bai Li Xi directly said, ”In fact, even if he lies in bed, the wound might not heal. He could end up lying like this for the rest of his life.”

”What?” Ye Qing widened his eyes, and Liu Mubai also took a sharp breath, looking at Bai Li Xi in shock. If that were true, what’s the difference between that and being a cripple? Given Liu Mubai’s personality, lying in bed for a lifetime without any stimulation would be worse than death for him.

”Why can’t the wound heal?” Ye Qing asked urgently.

”Other wounds aside, but don’t you forget, his heart is injured now!” said Bai Li Xi. ”Do you understand what a heart injury means? Just being alive with a heart injury is already a miracle. The Recreation Pill I gave him is to activate his body’s potential, sustaining his life functions. To put it bluntly, the Recreation Pill maintains the heart’s function inside his body. But to heal the heart’s wound, even by modern medical standards, you would need to at least stitch it up first, wouldn’t you? Without stitching the wound, do you think it will heal?”

”This...” Ye Qing was at a loss for words. He had also studied the Acupoint Seeking Technique, and although his medical skills were not as good as Bai Li Xi’s, he still knew these basic things.

”So, does that mean I will have to lie in bed for the rest of my life?” Liu Mubai asked tremblingly, his face turning extremely pale. Although he had saved a life, in his current situation, it was no different from death to him.

”That’s not exactly correct.” Bai Li Xi scratched his head and said, ”Of course, your heart can possibly grow and heal on its own, but with the Recreation Pill in your body, that is basically impossible. Moreover, in your current condition, you can’t endure any stimulation. That’s the most troublesome part, you can’t even use any medicine.”

”Doesn’t that still mean a lifetime in bed?” Liu Mubai said in a deep voice. It was clear that his expression was approaching despair.

”This...” Bai Li Xi was also at a loss for words and, after thinking for a while, said, ”It’s not entirely impossible for it to heal...”

”What method is there?” Ye Qing asked immediately, looking at Bai Li Xi, saying in a serious tone, ”No matter how difficult it is, I will definitely find a way to cure Big Brother Liu!”

Listening to Ye Qing, Liu Mubai couldn’t help but feel full of gratitude. Though despair was near in his heart, he still looked at Bai Li Xi, because he also didn’t want to be reduced to a cripple without trying everything.

Bai Li Xi said, ”There is a way, but it’s a bit difficult.”

”I said, no matter how difficult it is, I will definitely find a way to make it happen!” said Ye Qing seriously.

”This method isn’t something you can just achieve by wanting to,” Bai Li Xi sighed and said, ”Let me tell you the truth, given his current condition, unless you get the Buddhist Vajra Indestructible Body cultivation method, only then can his wound automatically heal!”

”The Vajra Indestructible Body cultivation method?” Ye Qing asked in surprise, ”Can learning the Vajra Indestructible Body really achieve that? Why?”

”The Buddhist Vajra Indestructible Body is one of the most profound unique skills of the Buddhist Sect,” Fu Qingping immediately said, not waiting for Bai Li Xi to answer, ”The reason the Vajra Indestructible Body became one of the highest unique skills of the Buddhist Sect is not only because of its ability to be impervious to weapons and fire or water, but, importantly, it has the ability to extend life and sustain vital functions. This unique skill is the best unique skill for martial artists to cultivate the body; if trained, not only is the physical body indestructible, but it can even repair a damaged body. It is said that there was once a high monk in the Buddhist Sect who practiced the Vajra Indestructible Body; before learning this skill, he had lost one hand and one foot. But when he had achieved some success in this unique skill, these limbs grew back, which is truly miraculous!”

Coming from Fu Qingping’s mouth, the words were even more convincing. Although Ye Qing didn’t know that the Vajra Indestructible Body had such miraculous effects, hearing this now, he couldn’t help but get excited. So, the unique skill of the Buddhist Vajra Indestructible Body can not only save Liu Mubai, but also potentially allow Ye Jun’s severed limbs to grow back?

However, the excitement in his heart didn’t last long before Ye Qing thought of something else. He looked at Bai Li Xi and said, ”But you just said that in Liu Big Brother’s current condition, he can’t withstand any stimulation. Practicing the Vajra Indestructible Body right now...”

”There’s no need for you to worry about that,” Liu Mubai said, ”What I meant by stimulation is external stimulation. As for practicing martial arts, as long as there aren’t any large movements, it’s fine. On the contrary, in his current condition, with the Recreation Pill transforming his body, practicing any martial art will achieve twice the result with half the effort, and his martial arts training speed would be much faster than the average person.”

”Really?” Ye Qing asked in surprise.

”Nonsense, this Recreation Pill was personally concocted by my master!” Bai Li Xi said proudly, ”This Recreation Pill, when made, is actually meant to enhance a person’s strength. I initially planned to save it for myself, but my martial arts were abolished, so the Recreation Pill has no use for me, which is why this kid got to benefit. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have seen him alive today!”

Ye Qing and Liu Mubai hadn’t expected that the Recreation Pill was originally meant for Bai Li Xi himself. Hearing this, the way they looked at him was even more shocked. Bai Li Xi also noticed their unusual gazes and said, ”Why are you looking at me like that? Do you not believe what I said? Let me tell you, if this kid wasn’t injured beside me tonight, or if the person who attacked him wasn’t from the Church, I definitely wouldn’t have taken out this pill. But this kid got injured beside me, and it was the Church’s person who attacked. If I didn’t save him, wouldn’t that mean the name Sai Hua Tuo I inherited would be looked down upon by the Church? My master made the Church bow with no exceptions back in the day, and if I lose face for my master, how can I live with myself?”

Ye Qing and Liu Mubai definitely didn’t doubt Bai Li Xi, they were just very grateful to him. Hearing these words, they finally understood why Bai Li Xi would take out such a precious pill to save Liu Mubai.

”Mr. Bai Li, thank you no matter what!” Liu Mubai said earnestly.

”Ah, you guys don’t need to say these useless things,” Bai Li Xi said, ”Although cultivating the Vajra Indestructible Body can heal his wounds, do you think the Vajra Indestructible Body is something you can cultivate if you want to? It’s the Buddhist Sect’s top unique skill. Even in the Xiaolin Temple, over thousands of years, only a few have been able to learn it. Nowadays, Shijia is the only one in the world who knows this unique skill. Even Shijia doesn’t teach it to Xiaolin Temple members; how would he teach it to outsiders? Let me tell you, you better not hope for this. Just send him back to slowly recuperate. Maybe the wound will miraculously heal on its own; that’s a more likely chance than learning the Vajra Indestructible Body!”

Ye Qing knew Bai Li Xi wasn’t exaggerating. The Vajra Indestructible Body is one of the highest unique skills of the Buddhist Sect, and even members of the Buddhist Sect find it hard to get this inheritance, let alone outsiders. Liu Mubai’s current condition, never mind whether Shijia is willing to impart it to him. Even if the Vajra Indestructible Body’s cultivation method is given to him, can he keep it? After all, the Vajra Indestructible Body’s cultivation method is coveted by everyone. Others dare not attack Shijia to seize this method, but if Liu Mubai knew it, the world wouldn’t let him go.

”So there’s no other method?” Ye Qing said gloomily. This only method doesn’t seem feasible, isn’t it intentionally making things difficult?

”It’s not that there isn’t another method...” Bai Li Xi just said a word, and Ye Qing glared and said, ”Can you just tell me in one go? Do you have to make me squeeze it out bit by bit?”

”Ah, why are you in such a hurry?” Bai Li Xi said, ”You’re asking one question at a time, so of course, I’ll answer one by one. There’s no reason for me to answer two questions when you ask one. That way, wouldn’t it be like teaching by analogy? Besides, we should do things one at a time, ask me one question, and I’ll answer that question. After answering, you can ask the next question, and I’ll answer the next one; that’s the order of doing things...”

”Stop, stop, stop!” Ye Qing interrupted Bai Li Xi with exasperation, ”Just tell me if there’s another way, don’t tell me so much!”
