Mu Yang did not act directly.
Instead, he first asked for Baizhu's opinion.
After all, this was the other's Legend Quest; he'd already freeloaded enough.
He had to give him full face.
Moreover, this was his patient; how to proceed should indeed consult the doctor's opinion.
Seeing Baizhu nod, Mu Yang drew Withering Glory and with one sword severed the product condensed from the God Remnant.
Also severing the connection between the child poison and the mother poison...
After Jialiang lost the suppression of the child poison, his chest imdiately began to hurt.
Accompanied by gradually recovering mories.
[...Your mind and mories will be eroded by it... in the end, it's no different from being dead...]
[...Use it, at least... I can still guard you both, watch Ayu grow up.]
...
Jialiang recalled the scenes in his mind.
These scenes tugged at his heart more than his heart disease.
[...Mom! You don't look right...]
[...It's okay, it's okay, Mommy will go gather herbs right away. Nothing will happen to our family...]
Jialiang really couldn't bear it anymore.
His heart was in extraordinary stabbing pain.
But at this mont, he kept pounding his own head.
He wanted to stop these wild thoughts.
The mories recovering at this ti had instead beco his burden.
Wasn't this ant to shake his resolve to die?
No, no more rembering.
In a daze, Jialiang saw Jiangli in the distance slowly awakening from her coma.
He had thought seeing this scene would be satisfying enough...
Jialiang self-mocked, "People ah, the longer they live, the greedier they get..."
"Really want... to hear your voice again."
The awakened Jiangli rushed to Jialiang's side, tears streaming as she kept calling out.
But no matter what, Jialiang couldn't hear anymore.
Originally, he only had a heart disease.
But years of using poison refined from God Remnants had already transford his body.
Now losing the child poison, the functions sustained by the poison were slowly failing.
Jialiang still wanted to say sothing, but could no longer open his mouth.
Finally, even his eyelids no longer obeyed him, heavily closing...
[So sad, why must you hurt with this kind of knife]
[Romance I can tolerate, but they're doing it for Ayu...]
[Family knife, unavoidable]
[Old Mi calculated that I'd fall for this set, wuu wuu...]
Just when players thought the screen would go black and Jialiang had already kicked the bucket.
They heard Jiangli's calls.
"—Jialiang! Jialiang!"
"—Dad! Are you awake?"
Jialiang on the sickbed opened his eyes and actually saw his wife and son.
And not far away, Lumine...
What was going on here?
[Holy, how did he revive? Is Bubu Pharmacy's Qiqi fully constellated?]
[You, give back my tears]
[Mine don't need returning, because I really have full Constellation Qiqi...]
[If you don't want, give to . Qiqi wife is so cute, surprisingly soone doesn't like her, hmph]
Jialiang struggled to sit up, "Ugh... Jiangli... Ayu?"
He couldn't believe what he saw.
"I wasn't already..." He tried to raise his hand, but saw it covered densely with talismans.
"What are these?"
Baizhu walked in smiling from the doorway.
"—How does it feel to co back from the dead?"
"If there's any discomfort or abnormality... could you describe it to in detail?"
Jialiang still hadn't figured it out, "Mr. Baizhu! I... I shouldn't have..."
Back in the cave, Mr. Baizhu had clearly said there was no saving him.
Why did he wake up in Bubu Pharmacy now?
And asking how coming back from the dead felt.
Could Mr. Baizhu's dical skills really be profound to this extent?
No, coming back from the dead shouldn't fall under dical skills anymore...
Baizhu's expression unchanged, still gently smiling as he answered.
"Hehe, you did indeed die once. The current you is closer to a zombie than a human."
"...Zombie?"
Baizhu nodded, "Correct. Before we set out, I had Qiqi prepare a dose of [Elixir of Immortality], maintaining your body in the crevice between life and death."
"Though far from true Adeptus arts, it can probably only extend your life a bit."
"As for specifically days, months, or years... I also want to take this opportunity to observe further."
——————
Silver Wolf's livestream room.
The plot reached this point.
Silver Wolf also saw Baizhu's true purpose.
As well as those words he said when teasing Paimon earlier.
"From Qiqi's story, we know her life was saved by an Adeptus."
"From then on frozen between life and death. Didn't expect Adeptus arts to actually be researched by Baizhu."
[He probably deduced it through Qiqi]
[That's still very impressive okay]
[Just now don't know what he's researching this for]
Silver Wolf smiled, "I've already figured it out, no spoilers. You guys watch ahead."
[I guess it's related to the secret art of saving people]
[Just zombie is far from enough, but indeed already very impressive]
[Why not let Mu Yang speak up and ask Mada Ping?]
[Probably have to wait for Qiqi's Legend Quest to reveal]
Silver Wolf expressed agreent, "After all, immortal and mortal differ, it involves fate and opportunity. Mu Yang tacitly allowing Baizhu to research God Remnants is already very satisfying for Baizhu."
"I think later Mu Yang might intervene, after all the stronger Baizhu becos, through the contract, Changsheng might also recover power."
——————
On Teyvat's side.
Baizhu's subsequent words were for Hu Tao to hear.
Jialiang had now co back to life; he hoped that Hu Tao could wait until the day he truly dies.
Before taking the person away.
Hu Tao coldly huffed.
"[Elixir of Immortality]... just how long have you been secretly tinkering with this to actually refine such a thing?"
"A half-finished product in na and reality. If not for Jialiang's firm will, it probably wouldn't have much effect."
He walked up to Hu Tao.
"In the end, I'm just a physician, I don't understand so much about cycles of life and death, the great principles of yin-yang constancy."
"I only know that if there's a life worth saving right in front of , there's no reason not to save it."
"Moreover, before we set out, wasn't it Hall Master Hu who had Jialiang co help guide the way?"
[Ah? So Hu Tao wasn't eavesdropping]
[No wonder Mu Yang didn't expose her then]
[So Baizhu also sensed it, are they all this sharp?]
Hu Tao pretended surprise, "Aiya ya, exposed huh."
"No wonder you didn't ntion the immortality dicine then, even in that situation still guarding against ."
Hu Tao talked to herself, finding a way out for herself.
Mouth saying helping fulfill wishes, lest wandering on yin-yang boundary and needing extra effort for transcendence and such, she walked out Bubu Pharmacy's door.
"Forget it forget it, just consider the order delayed."
Hu Tao finished speaking and left dashingly.
