Chapter 52

Su Zhe opened the door, and they, who had been anxiously waiting outside, hurriedly entered the room, gathering around Ling Ruoxue.

"Xiao Xue, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling any better?" Ling's mother touched Ling Ruoxue's face, asking anxiously. In fact, from Ling Ruoxue's current appearance, Ling's mother could already see that she was much better, but she was still worried and wanted to confirm it again.

Ling Ruoxue had congenital heart disease, and it was a severe case. She had always been weak, with a pale complexion, and had never looked as healthy and rosy as she did now.

"Ling Miss, your condition is no longer life-threatening. As long as you take the medicine I gave you every day, I believe you will recover soon," Su Zhe said. He was very confident in his divine power potion. As long as it showed results the first time, Su Zhe was sure he could cure her.

"Will she be able to live like a healthy person in the future?" Ling's mother asked.

"Take good care of yourself for a while, and do some appropriate exercise. You can live a life just like an ordinary person," Su Zhe said, believing that with the divine power potion, Ling Ruoxue could fully recover, and her body might even be better than an ordinary person's.

Hearing this news, Ling's mother hugged Ling Ruoxue and burst into tears. Her wish had finally come true. Ling Ruoxue was also a bit moved. Although she was very open about life and death, she still envied others who could do what they wanted, while she had never been able to do even a vigorous action since childhood.

"Ruoxue, can I see the potion?" Xing Jianglong asked, somewhat uneasy. He was afraid of another Yue Zhenglin and worried that Ling Ruoxue's improvement was just a last burst of energy. Some medicines could make a seriously injured person live like a normal person, but the cost was their life.

For example, Yue Zhenglin's Blood Spirit Charm Pill, aside from its other effects, could make Ling Ruoxue as strong as a normal person, no longer weak. However, with Ling Ruoxue's body, she would disappear within a month.

Ling Ruoxue looked at Su Zhe, asking for his opinion. Su Zhe felt there was no reason to object, so he nodded in agreement. Ling Ruoxue then handed the divine power potion to Xing Jianglong.

Xing Jianglong eagerly opened the bottle cap and placed it under his nose. He only took a light sniff, and immediately felt refreshed. Xing Jianglong was stunned.

Seeing Xing Jianglong's expression change, Ling's mother's heart sank, thinking there was something wrong with the potion.

Xing Jianglong, realizing his reaction, quickly closed the bottle, afraid that the potency would dissipate. Seeing Ling's mother's worried face, he hurriedly explained, "This potion is very pure. What's most remarkable is that it's powerful yet gentle."

Just a sniff had reduced his fatigue. An ordinary person would only smell nothing and find it indistinguishable from plain water. However, a martial artist like Xing Jianglong could feel the energy of the divine power potion.

Moreover, Xing Jianglong believed that the herbs used to make this potion were at least a hundred years old. Only herbs of that age could help Ling Ruoxue, increasing her vitality. However, the potency of herbs over a hundred years old was often too violent for someone with a weak constitution like Ling Ruoxue, which could have the opposite effect, making her even weaker.

Otherwise, the Ling family wouldn't have been so distressed by Ling Ruoxue's illness, feeling helpless. Although herbs over a hundred years old were rare, the Ling family's wealth and resources could have obtained them.

But Su Zhe's divine power potion didn't need to worry about this. Its energy was comparable to that of herbs over a hundred years old, yet it was very gentle, which was what surprised Xing Jianglong.

Xing Jianglong returned the divine power potion to Ling Ruoxue, reminding her to take good care of it. He knew the value of the divine power potion, which was priceless.

On the way home.

Driving, Yu Suyi couldn't help but ask, "Su Zhe, how did you know Yue Zhenglin's medicine was fake? Do you know about the Blood Spirit Charm Pill?"

"If I say it was intuition, would you believe me?" Su Zhe smiled. If he hadn't known from the beginning that Yue Zhenglin wasn't really there to save Ling Ruoxue, he wouldn't have been sure Yue Zhenglin was lying. The one who saved Ling Ruoxue that day was Su Zhe. Yue Zhenglin could deceive everyone else, but not him.

"If you don't want to say, fine, I don't want to hear it," Yu Suyi said haughtily, but her eyes kept sneaking glances at Su Zhe.

"Focus on driving, I'm still young," Su Zhe reminded her. He had nothing to tell Yu Suyi. At first, Su Zhe didn't know that Yue Zhenglin's Heart Calming Pulse Pill was fake. He just knew Yue Zhenglin had ill intentions. At the time, Su Zhe couldn't think of any other way, so he decided to bluff Yue Zhenglin. Unexpectedly, Yue Zhenglin, feeling guilty, thought Su Zhe had seen through him and even tried to kidnap Ling Ruoxue.

Through this incident, Su Zhe felt a sense of pressure. From his fight with Yue Zhenglin, he recognized many of his own shortcomings. Not only did he lack combat experience, but Yue Zhenglin's strength was several times greater than his own. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been defeated so easily in a few moves. If Xing Jianglong hadn't appeared at the last moment, his life would have been in danger.

In the past, he had a casual attitude towards improving his strength, occasionally practicing the first form to enhance his divine power. He always felt that his strength was enough to protect himself in daily life. However, today he realized that there were many experts in the world, and he just hadn't encountered them before.

His future development would definitely affect certain people. With his current strength, he couldn't handle the possible dangers that might arise. He could be eliminated at any moment. Moreover, Yue Zhenglin might seek revenge, as Su Zhe had ruined his plans.

Since obtaining the Supreme System, Su Zhe had never felt such a strong desire to improve his strength.

"Su Zhe, you need to be more careful in the coming days. If you have any difficulties, be sure to let me or Aunt know," Yu Suyi reminded him, her tone filled with concern.

"Don't worry, I understand," Su Zhe nodded, knowing that Yu Suyi was worried about Yue Zhenglin's possible retaliation.

Soon, Yu Suyi drove to Su Zhe's doorstep.

"Thanks, I'm home. Goodbye," Su Zhe got out of the car, said to Yu Suyi, and then walked away.

Yu Suyi watched Su Zhe open the door, walk in, and close it without turning back. She was so angry that she slapped the steering wheel. This man had no gentlemanly manners and didn't even invite her in for a moment.

On the way, Yu Suyi had been thinking about what she would do if Su Zhe invited her in. In the end, she realized she had overthought it. This man hadn't even considered asking.

After venting her frustration, Yu Suyi suddenly found it amusing. What was wrong with her, getting angry for no reason? Confused, she stepped on the gas, started the car, and decided not to think about it anymore.
