Just like those demons they had encountered at the Ronghua Dyeing Factory after going berserk!
"Second sister!"
Fang Yu shouted, wanting to rush over, but was caught by Ding Hui.
"Don’t go over and provoke her! Unless you want your second sister to die right before your eyes!"
These words made Fang Yu stop in his tracks.
"Then, what do we do now?"
"Let handle it."
Ding Hui gazed at the second sister.
The next instant, a trickle of black blood flowed from the second sister’s nostrils.
Then, as the red steam dispersed, the second sister fell back onto the bed from mid-air, motionless.
Fang Yu hurriedly ran over to check her breath.
Thankfully, she was still breathing.
Fang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Ding Hui and was waiting for an explanation, but he found the latter revealing a smile full of perverse anings of all sorts towards the second sister.
"Stabilized her. Fang Yu, hand your second sister over to ! I’ll take her to the Research Demon Mansion!"
Fang Yu’s expression changed.
"We had an agreent!"
Once at the Research Demon Mansion, it was uncertain whether the second sister’s body would remain intact.
That place was full of freaks; even when their own heads had been severed, they were invited over for slicing and study.
Would the second sister still be alive if she went there?
"Hmph!"
Ding Hui, having been refused, let out a cold snort.
But then again, thinking of the unlimited potential in Diao Ruru, her expression softened.
"It’s fine if we don’t go to the Research Demon Mansion, I’ll stay at your place from now on until your second sister is cured."
That... seems alright?
Apart from Ding Hui, Fang Yu couldn’t think of anyone else who could possibly cure his second sister.
It was convenient for treatnt to be able to watch over the second sister every day.
But suddenly, Fang Yu thought of a problem.
"Wouldn’t it be too conspicuous for you to co to my house to stay every day?"
"What’s the problem with that."
Ding Hui ca over and took Fang Yu’s hand.
"Weren’t we sleeping under the sa roof anyway? Living together is very natural, don’t you think, husband?"
Fang Yu’s eyelids twitched.
This woman, while saying such things, had everyone’s gaze fixed firmly on his second sister lying on the bed!
If it wasn’t for his knowledge that Ding Hui had so restraint, he would really worry that once he was off guard, Ding Hui would dismber and slice up his second sister.
"All these are secondary, what is the situation with my second sister right now?"
Once the conversation turned to these topics, Ding Hui got excited.
"The Spirit Powder has been activated, from a research perspective, this is already a failed product. Because the subject, at the stage of Spirit Powder activation, had no autonomous consciousness, and had already lost control."
"But, those are just superficial research results from the demon side."
"From my perspective, this is the perfect artwork! An impeccable subject!"
"It combines humanity and spirituality! It can allow humans to gain a portion of the spirits’ power without being eroded by it!"
"That is terrifying! Although right now, it’s only being tested on an ordinary person like the second sister."
"But as research deepens, it can be fully possible for a Martial Artist to grasp this power."
"Then, humankind will have no limitations! And won’t need to take the risk of following the dangerous evolutionary paths like the Demon Bloodline or Spirit God Faith."
"Humans can beco their own masters!"
"The spirits will just be dogs to humans!"
Imagining the future, Ding Hui talked on and on, her face flush with excitent.
This new type of spirit is different from the usual Spirit God Faith in the most crucial way: it is a dead spirit.
Dead spirit.
Without consciousness.
Unable to erode humans.
And possessing strength.
What a marvelous carrier it is, a brand-new, broad avenue in the direction of human evolution!
It can only be described as exquisitely unparalleled.
"So, how do we save my second sister now?"
Regrettably, there was a man next to her who didn’t understand romance at all, asking a boring question.
He had no idea that at this very mont, the two of them were witnessing the history of humankind!
A mont that would beco a turning point of human fate, to be the cog in the wheels of destiny, and this martial husband with a mind full of Martial Arts Training had not the slightest excitent or sympathy!
Ding Hui sighed.
She felt a loneliness and a sense of kinship with the demon genius who had conceived this ingenious idea.
Sadly, humans and demons are adversaries.
"Don’t worry, demons won’t understand the human brain."
"And in that regard, I’m a professional."
"If you’re willing to take a risk, I can extract the Spirit Powder from your second sister’s brain within three days."
"But by doing so, I cannot be accountable for your second sister’s life or death."
"Don’t look at like that, if you want a safer treatnt, it will probably take about ten days or so, and I will have to collect experintal data, adjust various dications... In around twenty days or so, we should have a result."
Twenty days.
Fang Yu thought for a mont and nodded.
"Okay, I trust you."
Ding Hui smiled and said,
"Good, then you strip your Second Sister right now; I need to give her a full-body checkup. We’ll start working tonight."
"...Strip? ? Isn’t that inappropriate?"
Ding Hui was imdiately unhappy.
No free assistant to be found.
"If you can’t even do this small task, fine, you stay by the door. I’ll do it myself and call you if I need anything."
And so Fang Yu stood guard the entire night.
Occasional strange noises ca from inside, but Fang Yu didn’t dare to interrupt.
One may not trust anything about Ding Hui, but one must never doubt Ding Hui’s professional expertise.
As far as Fang Yu knew, Ding Hui was the strongest in the field of scientific research.
It wasn’t until the sunrise that Ding Hui ca out of the room.
Under her nose was a trail of dried black blood, as if she had had a nosebleed.
Fang Yu looked at her suspiciously, but Ding Hui was brimming with excitent.
"This is nothing; I’ve overused the power of Shuang Xuyao."
"I’m exhausted, but it’s been fascinating!"
"I need to rush back to the Research Demon Mansion right away!"
Research! Research! Research!
The more she learned about Spirit Powder during the all-night checkup, the more excited Ding Hui beca.
Like the collision of a genius with a spark of inspiration.
New ideas were popping up in her mind all night, and she wanted to rush back to conduct a plethora of experints to verify her thoughts.
If it weren’t for the promise made to Diao Deyi to prioritize healing Diao Ruru first.
Ding Hui would have really liked to slice open Diao Ruru’s skull, cut it into fine strands, and ticulously research every single detail without overlooking anything.
Ensuring the patient’s survival while treating them and then considering the research made things slightly less satisfying.
Fortunately, Diao Deyi had promised that after Diao Ruru was healed, at least two living subjects would be brought back for her experints.
Otherwise, Ding Hui would have found it hard to resist the itch in her hands.
Seeing that Ding Hui was a bit too excited, Fang Yu couldn’t help but call out to her.
"Don’t you need to rest a bit?"
Ding Hui waved her hand dismissively; she’d been through tis more taxing than this. This was nothing.
But as soon as Ding Hui stepped out the door...
Bang!
She seed to run into a wall and staggered back two steps.
Who’s there?
Ding Hui looked up and couldn’t help but laugh.
"Lord Li Baizhen, what brings you here?"
Indeed, the visitor was none other than Li Baizhen himself.
He was holding bags of dicine and looking bewildered at the woman coming out of Fang Yu’s house.
"Ding... Hui?"
Li Baizhen wondered if he had co to the wrong place.
Looking into the house, he could just see Fang Yu standing inside.
Li Baizhen:...
Li Baizhen:???
My head itches; is a brain about to grow out or what??
"You, you guys..."
Ding Hui, realizing what was going on, giggled, patted Li Baizhen’s hand, and said,
"I’ll be off now. If there’s anything, ask him."
With that, Ding Hui turned around, facing away from Li Baizhen, gave Fang Yu a hushing gesture, and playfully winked.
Then she ran off without looking back.
From her haste, it was clear she was eager to return to her research.
"This..."
Li Baizhen watched Ding Hui’s retreating back, then glanced at Fang Yu inside the house, at a loss for what to do next.
It was Fang Yu who relieved him from the awkwardness.
"Lord Li Baizhen, please co inside."
"Ah... Okay."
Li Baizhen entered the house, shut the door behind him, blocking the morning sun outside, and then sat down.
Fang Yu also sat down.
Both of them faced each other for a mont, not knowing how to begin.
Finally, Li Baizhen was the first to clear his throat.
"Yesterday at Ronghua Dyeing Factory, you left suddenly, and I thought you had so urgent matter. It turns out you went to find Ding Hui."
"Yes, that’s correct. Ding Hui instructed to report any information to her imdiately. There’s sothing wrong with those demons at the Ronghua Dyeing Factory, and Ding Hui is looking into it."
Investigating?
What’s to investigate?
What could make her co to your house, and then only leave the next early morning...
