Chapter 1255: Chapter 1250: Who Says You Can’t Surpass Your Mother

Su Yingxue used a silver needle to pierce several major acupoints on him, but not only did this fail to stop the bleeding, it actually caused Xiao Yu to lose consciousness once. It took her great effort to revive him again.

The continuous exertion was almost too much for her own body to bear.

Chu Yihan wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and asked with concern, “How are you?”

Su Yingxue really wanted to say she was fine, but she was truly exhausted. Thinking of Su Miaoyan who had jumped off the cliff, Su Yingxue gritted her teeth, toughened her heart, took a Heart Protection Pill for herself, and then pierced herself with two needles.

After the pain, what followed was a revival of spirits.

She turned around and embraced Chu Yihan, “I’m a bit tired, but I cannot let Xiao Yu down, I must treat him immediately, his condition is too dire.”

One careless moment and he might lose his life.

Chu Yihan’s sword-like eyebrows were furrowed tightly, a crease forming between them. Holding Su Yingxue, he gently patted her back and consoled her, “I know you’re tired, I’ll be with you.”

Whether it was for the bigger picture or as a brother-in-law, Chu Yihan could not let him die.

And Su Yingxue didn’t want to see that outcome either.

Su Yingxue had an operating room prepared, placed Xiao Yu on a makeshift operating table, and decided to give Xiao Yu a thorough examination. In addition to being weak, his body also seemed to be infested with Gu insects, which was the most troublesome part.

Lying on the operating table with his upper body bare, Xiao Yu had the meridians in his body sealed with silver needles by Su Yingxue, and then she clearly saw something swelling up.

Normally, these Gu insects are not easily detected, nor do they easily appear on the skin.

But Xiao Yu had been on the run for days and had suffered untold hardships; his body was emaciated to the bone, allowing these creatures to show up without the cover of flesh and blood.

Using the silver needles, Su Yingxue forced them all to Xiao Yu’s forearms, trapping them like captive beasts. Soon, these creatures gathered into a lump on Xiao Yu’s arm, swelling up to the size of a fingertip.

In Su Yingxue’s mind, Little Ginseng’s crisp and tender voice rang out, “Gu insects! His body is devoid of nutrients, and these bugs are starting to eat his flesh! He will be eaten clean!”

At that time, I’m afraid Xiao Yu would end up just like Xiao Hui, a dried-up corpse.

Su Yingxue was well aware of the severity of the problem, but she realized more clearly, “Xiao Yu’s body is too weak. He might not survive the trauma of surgery. If anything goes wrong, a poor recovery will surely be fatal.”

“Oh no! But if you don’t save him now, he will be eaten up in a few days anyway! Still a death!” Little Ginseng impatiently stamped its foot, even damaging a few plants in the newly cultivated medicinal field.

Su Yingxue bit her lip and hesitated for a long while, “I’ll go and discuss it with Sister Rong Sheng!”

“Come back!”

Little Ginseng, frustrated, stopped her, “That heartless woman, why summon her! Can’t you do it yourself?”

“I… I haven’t had as much experience as she has. In terms of Western medicine, she’s my mother’s apprentice sister; she’s more skilled than me!” At this moment, Su Yingxue did not possess such strong confidence.

She had always admired her mother, so she held Rong Sheng in high esteem, viewing her as someone as formidable as her mother.

Little Ginseng exclaimed in her mind with exasperation, “Who said she’s more skilled than you? She can perform surgery, so can you. You know the Soul-Consuming Needle, does she? You and your husband and child live in loving happiness, can she? She only knows how to hurt her own child, you must not be blind! And besides, who said you can’t surpass your mother?”
